Says Scientists
Prove Bible True

Men once wondered" said Evan
gelist Lee Wheeler, addressing the
audience at the big canvas tabernacle
on McGraw-ave., last evening, why,
in the prophecies OF Daniel. lion
with the wings OF great eagle should
be used as symbol OF the mighty
kingdom OF Babylon. and the future
empires OF Persia, Greece and Rome
represented by similar ferocious
beasts.
Some good people," continued the
speaker. even thought the figures
grotesQue and expressed doubt at the
inspiration OF the book. But years
ago an English scholar visited the
wilderness where Babylon and Nine
yah once stood While waiting for
some Arabs TO arrive and assist him
in his excavations. he lay down to
rest upon one Of the old mounds COW
ering the ancient site. and dreamed
Of unearthing giant figures hewn in
stone. His dream came true, for

OF the once greatest city OF earth.

Of his Arab servants, Layard managed

'Skeptics have sometimes tried to
AVOID the conclusion that the Bible is
Inspired. by saying that the prophe

this reasoning is weak because II IL

prophecies was a part OF the Septua-
gent version of the Old Testament,
which was translated into Greek ana

Arraigns Executive.

ALBANY, n. Y, Oct 9.-Judgs
Alton b. Parker, in the course of
bitter arraignment of Governor Will
liam Sulzer before the court of i'm
parchment this afternoon, declared
that the Governor had knowingly
sworn to a lie when he reported only
$3.50 of receipts in the face e
$751; 400 of proven contributions.
I He riddled the Sarecky testimony
declaring it unworthy of belief, and
said that the Governor must indeed
have been proud of his pupil when
he read the report that omitted all Of
the contributions from the great in
terests, the liquor dealers or the poll.
ticians included in it, and he added:
The man who read that list, aud
examined It. knew it was not true.
1t does not help him for the boy to
say he did the best he could; his
master knew it was a lie"
For more than two hours Louis
Marshall, speaking in defense Of
Governor Sulzer. attacked the right
of the court of impeachment to con-
vict the Governor upon charges that
related solely to things transpiriag
before his term of office began.
In a powerful speech, in so far as
its technical legal force was con-
cerned, the attorney hammered this
fact at the judges of the high court.
"All of the meat in the impeach-
ment hangs about the one offense of
making a false campaign statement
which was rendered before the Gov
ernor's term of office began, and the
court is without power to punish for
an act which does not involve official
misconduct in office" he said.
A verdict is expected next Monday
or Tuesday.
