lists in Kilbourne park was given last
night before a large and interested
audience. With the sounding OF the
first notes from the large tent organ,
the people began pouring in and by
O'Clock the seating capacity of the big
tent was stretched to its utmost, and a
large number Of the benches In the
park were pressed into service. The
congregation gathered outside the
tent, numbered nearly half as many as
that in the tent.
The services opened with song and
prayer by Rev. Smouse of Des Moines.
The subject for the evening was:
"Proph ecy--What Is 1t and Why Was
1t Given?' 1t was very ably handled
by w. X. Smith. He pointed out by
the use of various texts that the
prophecies of Daniel and Relaxation
are no. clothed in that obscurity and
darkness with which they are SO Of
ten pictured but that they may be full
ly understood by all with a proper
amount of study He showed that the
great beasts of the prophecies of Dan
lei have definite meanings and that
their significance may be UNDERSTOOD
by the mere child who is willing to
permit the prophecies to do their
own explaining. Prophecy" said Mr..
Smith, is one of the strongest proofs

it not so inspired it's fulfillment could
not have been SO accurate even to the
minutest detail Prophecy was given
| that men might know the future, and
although the greater part of prophecy
has already been fulfilled there is more
referring to our own time which has
yet to be fulfilled. The Turko-Balkan
war the past winter was very mark
ed fulfillment of prophecy. And the
prophets are not silent as to what
shall be the outcome of this war
! These prophecies will be considered in

was the music under the direction oil
