chapter, from which the foregoing quota

chapter, from which the foregoing quota
ton is taken, is thrown in parenthe teal
ly, in o,Ger to describe some particular
things connected with the close of time
that had not already received attention
from the prophets pen.
1t will be seel, from the quotation
that angels are commanded to, hold the
"winds" that they may not blow either
on the earth, or on the sea, or on any
tree. Winds, in symbolic prophecy, de-
note strites, wars, and connections. And
hence the four angels are told to hold
back these things until the Lord has
given His sealing, gospel message to the
ends of the earth.
When the dogs of war and of strife
have to be held, it shows that they are
not in repose. They are Juggling at their
leashes. and bowling in their madness.
Hence if there should be any short out
breaks of war and strife, they would, in
the very nature of things, come sudden
ly and furiously. Such is the definite
thing that the prophecy calls for, and the
conditions in the world at the end of time
are to test the accuracy of the divine
prediction.
The war between Turkey and Italy that
has just been concluded is clear exam
pie of the rule. 1t broke out suddenly,
and it has ended quite as suddenly. The
Russo-Japanese war was another recent
example. The war wind broke forth
with gust, and then it was terminated
before either Russia or Japan was will
ing to have it close. The present Balkan
war is another illustration. A few weeks
ago, there seemed to be no more trouble
there than has been usual for the last
quarter of century, for there has been
heavy war cloud lowering over that
section for fully that long. But all of
sudden the little Balkan states stalk forth
madly. They say they are determined to
have revenge on Turkey. Then there is
a little calm. The powers say they
will control the situation. They will not
let these little nations fight the old de-
caying. crumbling Turk. But while the
"powers" deliberate, Montenegro rushes
to the attack, and then the war storm,
in all its furies, is on.
Some have thought that all Europe will
be embroiled in this war 1t may be so.
But mark this: it will be of short dura-
ton 1t will be ended as suddenly, per-
haps, as it was begun. 1t can not con-
tinue; for He who commands the orderly
movements of all the suns and worlds in
the universe, has uttered His prophecy,
and made His decree. The "winds" are
held until the sealing work OF the gospel
is finished. And in this time, the gospel
has in it the message that Jesus is about
to return to earth.
Very respectfully,
w. l.. A.

LEAGUE CLOSES HAGERSTOWN
OFFICE.

The Anti Saloon League announces
that in the interest," of efficiency and
economy in administration it will on
January | consolidate the Western
and Central districts, closing the office
at Hagerstown, and administer the
work direct from the Baltimore office.
The expenses of maintaining a srpa-
rate office and District Supcrintcnd-
ent, which absorbe d more than 95%
of the actual cash recei pts from the
district, was as fully warranted while
the local option issue was being de-
fined and the League organization
perfected. But in view of the expan-
sion and increased efficiency of the
Baltimore office its further continu-
ance would be extravaganza. There
fore, the Baltimore working force
which was completed last spring will
assume the administrative response
bilities of the district and the other
part of the work will be done at -
great saving.

THE WORLD IN BALTIMORE.

All anticipations concerning the
World in Baltimore Missionary Ex-
positiol have been exceeded by the
attendance which has marked the en-
terprise since the opening day, Oc-
tober 25th. Successful as were the
Boston and Cincinnati expositi"ns,
the one now in progress in Baltimore
is more 80, both in point of numbers
of people entertained and in interest
taken by those connected with the
city churches. Some indication OF
the crowds which have marked the
special days can be gained from the
fact that at the special massmeetlng
for children, Sunday, Nov. I'd, not
only was the Lyric theatre, auditori-
um and galleries, completely filled,
but, after tie Missionary Play Hall
and the Lecture Hall (the two ac-
commodating perhaps 600 people, had
been filled, an open air program was
given to satisfy the thousand or more
people who clamorcd for entrance
which could not be granted them.
There is close race for supremacy
in popularity on the part OF the En-
position Hall, the Pageant Hall and
the Missionary Play Hall. In the
Exposition hall the exhibits of ma
tons, with the hundred or more dali
" demonstrations by stewards in
costume, attract much attention.
But at 3 O'Clock in the afternoon
and $ O'Clock in the evening, this at
tcntion is transferred to a large de-
gree to the Pageant hall, or Lyric
auditorium, where the Pageant OF
Darkness and Light is given by a east
of local talent which now has reach
ed superb stage of training. The
pageant is decidedly majestic spec
tacle, carried ont with the dignity de
served by its theme, it, setting and
the accompanying music.
The Missionary Play Hall is not
behind the others in claiming its
share OF patronage, and its seating
capacity Of about 400 is tested daily
Perhaps the most popular features of
the play hail are the tw" plays by
Miss Helen l.. Wilcox, 'Th" PHI
yrimag'" and 1.-TWO Thousand Miles
lor "A Book' and the wonderful mo-
ton pictures of Mr.. :. X. Nint"n,
although the lesser plays and the
costume lectures are proving very
popular.

Holding the Winds of War.

Holding the Winds of War.
To the Editor:
We are in the midst of turbulent
times. We have strifes in the social and
financial world that are filling men with
grim apprehensions. Society is divided
into factions, each of which is striving
for some personal end, and all are claim
ing that they are called to do what they
are doing in order that the social struct-
ure may not be utterly ruined.
Louder, even, than these clamorings in
society, are the rumblings of the war
chariots among the nations. The omens
of war are so strong that many peace
societies have been formed for the pur-
pose of trying to hold the war craze with
in bounds, with the hope Of finally de-
stroying the sentiment of war altoge Their.
These peace organizations are formed in
states and in nations, and then are brought
together in international societies so that
their combined influence may be exerted
to withstand the pent up sentiments OF
war. The peace organizations are, with
out doubt, doing a great work. But they
make mistake in thinking that they
will be able ultimately to control war in
this wicked world, filled with selfish and
ambitious men. 1t is needful that we
view these things in their true light If
we would avoid being deceived. The fol-
lowing prophetic declaration states the
situation as it is:
after this saw four angels stand
ing at the four corners of the ear tn hold
ing the four winds of the earth, that no
wind should blow on the earth, or on the
sea, or upon any tree. And | saw an
other angel ascend from the sunrsing,
having the seal of the living God; and he
cried with great voice to the four angels
to whom it was given to hurt the earth
and the sea, saying, Hurt not the earth,
neither the sea, nor the trees, till we
shall have sealed the servants of our God
on their foreheads. Rev. l-3.
| The sixth chapter of Revelation closes
with description of the awful scenes
that will be upon earth when Christ will
be revealed at His second coming. They
are the scenes that occur under the sixth
seal Then the eighth chapter begins
with the opening of the seventh seal, and
tells of the silence in heaven for the
space of prophetic half hour, or seven
and one-half literal days, when all the
angels have LETT their regular dwelling
place around Gods throne to accompany
! Christ to this earth. Hence the seventh

Mixed Up By Election.
Result Shows Singular Changes
In Congress.

An analysis of the Congressional
election returns, now all in, shows
some singular changes in the political
map of the country.
When the lightning of November
5th struck, Republican oaks in every
section of the nation went down.
Here and there a few Democrats felt
the force of public opinion, but for
the most part old-lincrs in the once
dominant organization were the vie
tins.
Perhaps the most important dcvrl-
opment of the Congressional cam
paign was the complete destruction
of sectionalism in the Democratic
party. Never before in the history
of the country, perhaps, has party
majority in the House been SO widely
distributed geographically as will be
the case in the forthcoming Demo.
cratic membership.
On account of the family row in
the Republican ranks, when each Ell
ement of the old party tried to ann
hiate the other, many strang, acct
dents bcfell Congressman of all par
ties. Some republican states will be
entirely represented by democrats in
both houses of next Congress. whlI'
other states which gave plnralitlrs Il
Wilson will have divided delegations.
Generally speaking, the drmc crat,
have a great unwieldy majority in thu
House. There il even an element oi
alarm in this fact, since many OF tn"
House leaders doubt if 50 big rep.
rrsenta,ion may be properly taken
care Of in committee appointments.
Unless the majority party members
are provided for, serious insurgency
is almost certain to develop,
The democrats will have solid Housc
delegations from Is States. The Re.
publicans will have solid delegations
from nine. The Democrats are rep.
resented in the delegations of thirty
nine states, the Republicans in 30
The Democrats have total Hous'
strength of 292, while the Republi
cans have 143, giving the former Il
majority of 149. The classification

In the Senate many curious diviS
ions occur. Here 20 States will have
two Democratic Senators each, anC
- States will have two Republicans
each. In eight states the Senate del
egations are divided. There are t,

STATE ANTS RESOLUTE;;
LEAGUE HAS NO CHOICE
From thursdays Daily.

Minneapolis, August 1.-The Min
nesota Anti-Saloon league will not
officially support any candidate for
governor. The leagues. trustees, al
an adjourned meeting at Dayton's
tea rooms late yesterday decided to
make no recommendation to the
county option forces of the state
This was reversal of the action
taken one week before when the
| trustees after a long debate decided
to make an Endorsement, and ap
pointed committee to draw up a
resolution to be acted on yesterday
When the trustees assembled at the
adjourned meeting sentiment had
changed 1t was decided that ON
account of the new primary law
with its second choice fea ture, an
Endorsement would have to include
second choice, which would lead
to complications.
Adopted These Resolutions.
The trustees finally agreed on the
following resolution:
Whereas, the special session OF
the legislature has passed a special
and somewhat peculiar law govern.
ing the primaries of the state, and
Whereas, the new condition has
materially changed the political prob
lens, "

Believing in the clear-cut issue OF

plies to the same, and then use
his best judgment as a loyal citizen.

HILARITY;; Then ARREST

Banished from the city of Man
kato to the confines of lie Hitler,
where he has his home, only to
leave for the Windy City and show
up in police court, after rampage
in Chicago, ]. C. Armstrong, the
Mankato. drummer, has again faced
judge. A dispatch from Chicago
says that he was arrested yesterday
for being disorderly. Friends rescu-
ed him and he was so jubilant in
his celebration that he was rearrest-
ed three hours after his release and
fined $40 and costs.
Armstrong is not an unfamiliar
figure in Mankato. In fact he has
been in the municipal court several
times. Since his coming to this city
he has enriched the treasury by his
fines for drinking, he has been
paroled by the Judge, and he has
been reprimanded for his disorderly
conduct, even banished to LIE Hitler,
and finding it too slow in that suburb,
went to Chicago, where he thought
he might carouse in peace without
anyone else knowing it. But the
strong wine had it's effects, and be-
fore long citizens of Chicago began
to notice his jubilant actions. So
glad did he become in his rampage
that he spread his hilarity over ali
the big burg, and policeman took
him to Jail. He was brought before
a Judge and released when friends
came to his rescue. But this had a
rather bad effect on Armstrong, who
began to celebrate the event and
was rearrested. -
