Claim Prophecy Fulfilled.

A@conference Of Bible students held
recently at Keswick, N. J., revived an
ancient prophecy concerning Egypt,
the literal fulallment Of which,: they
asserted, has been borne out in his
tory. The prophecy is found in Eze-
kiel 29:13-15, and 3O:13. Part Of
it reads as follows: @a"It shall be
the basest OF Kingdoms, neither shall
it exalt itself any more above the
nations, for I shall diminish them that
they shall no more rule over the ma
lions ..t. and there shall be no
more prince Of the land Of Egypt:
and I will put a fear in the land OF
Egypt Since this prophecy was
written, said one of the speakers.
Egypt has been ruled by the Babylo-
mans. the Romans and the Turks,
and now 1t has passed under the alb
solute sway Of England. Yet Egypt
once was the greatest and richest Of
the worlds nations. ,s ,y; Il
