i, the uncertain world Having failed to reach
Russia before the bars were up, and the way 10

bs,ser lines as possible before crossing to Eng
ini
twss not until we reached Malmo, on the way
IA Copenhagen. that we realized travelling in war
tines has lis surprises. The first one was the
,s, list OF questions on the hotel arrival blanks
which. after they were filled out, looked like
brsnehes from the family tree. The next surprise
cane when We learned that the steam ferryboats
from Mslmo to Copenhagen. which usually cross
over from Sweden to Denmark in an hour and
lsH. nov required two hours on account Of the
fglag course taken.
sWhv zie-zag course" we asked. with d sink

iroat lest our fears be betrayed and the real
ruth withheld: as it on account of mines
This casual inquiry made in a languid tone OF
Joice, was intended TO conceal our stupefactlon
as il suddenly dawned upon us that mines may
have been laid in other waters than those be-
tween Sweden and Russia and in the North Sea-

A SPECIAL PILOT STEERS THEM THROUGH

We went aboard the boat, under a special pilot

way across TO Copenhagen. Three women were

passengers, none Of whom were out for pleasure.
Upon arrival in Copenhagen We began 10 inquire
about boats TO England, only to learn that for
reasons" there Yves no information to be given
out and for tho Immediate present no boats were
sailing from Copenhagen TO England, unless pos

NORTH SEA WEATHER AND SHOCKS OF THE
NIGHT.

Not departing from the proverbial weather Of
the North Sea that first night a stormy one.
The small boat Of only thousand tons rocked
and creaked as though every moment she must
20 to the bottom. Then remembered, with
startling viyidness, among other encouraging bits
of information received on the of sailing,
that the largest boats had all been taken off the
North Sea lines on account Of the danger only
the older and smaller ones being left in service,
As the loss Of these vessels would be less serious
to their owners SO it didn't matter then if this
little old creakng tub did 90 down, since it would
mean little to any one but the passengers.
r was near morning when we were pitch
inc about from one trough into another, mighty
crash shivcred the boat from stem to stern; the
engines stoppcd. dead silence followed and we
seemed TO be drifting. Had the mine struck the
boat amidships and we're slowly going down?
Lying quietly awaiting the end we wondered how
long before VIC should sink to the bottom. We
had no intention Of trying to dress, knowing cloth
ing would be protection in sea like this;
neither was there any desire to take chances IN
a Hfeboat drifting about in high seas, d-enched
with icy waters. freeing in stifened garments.
Quick drowning seemed now a mcrcful Fate
life belt lay at our feet. Was it worth while
10 try it on. and would it fit? Rather let it lie.

THE DANISH OFFICER GETS THE LIFE HIS
TORY OF THE PARTY.

An exhaustive cross-que stioning as 70 who.
what where and whittier, closely resembling
court martial when translated, only brought out
more historical replies in English with staccato
bravura notes meant to conceal anxiety. A final
steely, menacing stare from the coolest blue eyes
ever encountered produced the desired paraytic
effect. The batteries were silenced The Swedish
officer was master Of the situation, whereupon he
reassuringly told of an American who had lately
been arrested for taking kodak view of this very
fortress.
Once more the question put directly: Had
we taken any photographs while at the castle?
This time the reply was in the best like-a-real-
lady manner. When, by way of pacifcation, our
regret was expressed at any misunderstanding he
politely followed suit by vocing his own regret
in being thus compelled to follow out the lines
ci duty. Following the exchange Of few more
rvilities he rode away, leaving us, however, so
nabbergasted and subdued that We forgot TO ask
hin. the way TO Hamlets grave.
When we left Copenhagen to take our chances
in reaching England seemed to be the last
Of our race to go.
We took our journey in sections, the only wey

now closed. as We're the western ports OF Den

last shot was fired across the invisible mines Inc

It was with more relief that outward bravado
would allow us to acknowledge when we stepped
ashore from that boat to take train for Co
thenburg, where we were TO embark on a small
steamer to Leith, Scotland. That another boat
had been blown up in the North Sea the Gay be-
fore was not cheerful thought to sail away with.
Scarcely less envening was the information at

of Leith as the latter port like that of HUI, New
castle. and the mouth of the Thames, to be
closed and mined. The final bit of news impaired
in confidence was that the harbor of Gothen-
burg was heavily mined, but there appeared no
probability that the rest of the party would share
this discovery before sailing.

At this fair two tents were put up
one for the mere-men disciples to
sleep in and the other for the ladies
and his nibs, the Light of the World.
Mrs. Clark speaks of it in the fol-
lowing statement:
About four years ago Benjamin
took eleven women and about thir-
teen men to Chicago with him. We
took some of the animals from the
ark with US and two tents.
Benjamin came with us and walk
ed tround in front of our tents. A
lot of people looked at his whiskers
and his long hair and white clothes
and got interested in US. We women
sold souvenirs and things. The men
pretended to do stunts with the ami
mails. But the animals were poor,
tired beasts, and they were good only
to stare at.
''The weather got pretty rainy and
Benjamin only stayed there two days
out of the eight we were in Chicago.
We slept in the tents on the rainy
ground after that. But before it got
so bad he stayed with us. The men
slept in one tent and the women in
another. That is, all but Benjamin
HE went around among us as he
did in the inner court He had reg
ular celebration, just as he used to |
have in Shiloh.
1--WE were in our night clothes and
he used to have us dance for him. He
especially enjoyed the dancing of the
younger girls, and he used to call |
them to his side when they did real |
well. 1t was worth while to stand in |
well, with King Benjamin, and be
pretty and young.
But even with these celebrations,
Benjamin did not care much for the
weather, and he left US with our ami
mails to- bring back to the ark"
Tafnr Mrs TIorly told som nthiuo of

and comb his beard and get his white
clothes ready. He would wander
around the place and let visitors look
at him. When evening came he would
sit on the veranda of Shiloh with
some of the women of the inner
court and listen to the band concert.
"Then he would say good night to
the women-a good night until he
saw them again few hours later in
his kimono in the private room in
Shiloh or in Jerusalem or Bethlehem
or one of the other houses"
Meanwhile other interesting things
have come to light. The Rollers"
own thousands of dollars of choice
property in Michigan. Whenever a
husband should accidentally fall in
love with the wife to whom he had
been assigned by PurneH and feel as
though he would like to at least get
pretty well acquainted with her, the
king would ship him away to North
ern Michigan to work in a lumber
camp for the sake of the Lord"
It has also come to light that Pur-
nell first attracted followers by a
startling assertion that the world
was coming to an end in March,
1912. Hundreds of fanatics rushed
to him from all parts of the world.
When the time passed and the world
disappointed them by continuing in
it's course, Purnel gibly explained
that there had been a mistake and
that he meant 1916.
Mrs. Clark told of another time
when she accidentally caught Purnell
embracing a new disciple, a fair
young one. To obtain her secrecy
the liking" promised her slide from
bone and a position in the ladies'
band.
Purnen is said to have already
started colony in New Zealand and
