TRACING PROPHECIES
 SUBJECT OF SERMON
Pastor Andross Delivers Interesting Discourse at Adventist Camp

Tracing the prophecies of the book of Daniel and the Revelation which outline the world kingdoms of Baby lon, Medo-Persia, Grecia and Rome, Pastor E. l.. Andross in his sermon on Fulfilling Prophecy' at the Seventh Day Adventist camp last night declared that history had full filled the outline in every detail, and that today we are living in the time just prior to the setting up of Gods everlasting kingdom so def initeIy described in the seventh chap ter.
 The large tent was crowded and excellent attention was given while the pastor explained why he believes the second coming of Christ is near at hand He made special reference to the conditions described in the 24th of Matthew, and the 23rd chap ter of Luke, particularly the tre- mendous preparations for war that should be present in the Warld in the last days.
 Quotations from leading authori- ties were given to show that never before were the nations so heavily armed. Pastor Andross declared that the Bible teaches personal return of the Savior to take possession of the world, and strongly appealed to his audience to prepare for that ev- ent.
 The conference session resumes it's work at the camp at Tenth and Pierce streets today at 9:30.

TEMPE MAN ON THE BORDER.

Brim full of news direct from the point of action concerning the recent trouble along the border in old Mexico, John Hansen, proprietor of the Cast Loma hotel here, returned to Tempe yesterday morning after a weeks visit in Southern Arizona and Sonora, Mex ico. While the trip south was made primarily on business interests, Hansen had plenty of time to devote to the war conditions which he found to prove most interesting. At the time Juarez was taken, Hansen with q party of four friends was not forty miles distant from the scene of action. They were in Old Mexico then, but conditions were such that it was hours afterwards when the first news of the fight reached their locality. MT Hasen does not really believe there is any danger in an American frequcnting Mexico if he tends to his own business. Making the trip south from Douglas, the auto party of which Mir. Hansen was one, were stopped and searched all of a doz- en times by American soldiers sta toned at two and thre miles intervals
