ADVENT|STS PROCLAIM
SECOND COMING NEAR

FALLoN. May 27. (SpeciaD-"Ar-
mageddon, and time of trouble such
as never since there was a nation. in
which the whole world will be involv-
ed, is just before u.s." according to
Elder E. E. Andross of Los Angeles,
president of the Pacific Uion Confer
ence of the Seventh-day Adventists,
who made this statement in a sermon
at the annual camp-meeting of Ne
vada Adventists here last night.
For so years Seventh.day Advent
lists have taught that Armageddon, the
appearing of Jesus Christ in the clouds
OF glory, and the resurrection in bodi.
ly form of all the righteous dead from
Adams day to the present, were
events very soon to take place." con-
tinued the minister. Upon the au-
thority of Daniel 11:44, As and 1871, .,
they have taught that Turkey, the
king of the north, as Scripture desig-
mates him, will yet plant the taber-
nacle of his palace between the seas,
in the glorious holy mountain and
yet come to his end without the help
hitherto given him by the nations.
And at that time continues the pro-
phecy, shall Michael stand up, the
great prince, which standeth for the
children of thy people. And there
shall be a time of trouble such as
never was since there was nation.
even to that same time. And at that
time thy people shall be delivered,
every one that shall be found written
in the book. And many of them that
sleep in the dust of the earth shall
awake, some to everlasting life
There the Sultan will make his last
stand. Awful Armageddon, far worse
than even the present terrible Euro
pean struggle will be fought on the
plains of Megiddo. in the Valley of
Jehosaphat, near Jerusalem"
The Adventists will continue their
meeting until next Sunday night.
Plans for the new school, which the
Adventists will build on the Will Har-
mon property, on the Saltwater Road,
a mile and a half east of Fallon, are
going rapidly forward. Prof. A. w.
Russell has arrived from Iona Linda,
and will be in charge. Ten acres has
been donated by Mr. Tarmon, and
buildings costing between $4,000 and
$4,000 will be erected soon. The
school bui1dinP will accommodate %
pupils when completed. 1t will be af-
filiated with Pacific Union College, of
ST. Helena, Cal, one of the largest
educational institutions conducted by
branches including 10 grades, thorough
instruction will be given in Bible his
tory, prophecy and doctrines. and in
dustrial lines, including farming and
carpentry will be taught. Two teach
ers will be employed besides Prof.
Russell.
He will leave Fallon within a few
days to attend the national education
al council which the Adventists are
to hold at st. Helena June to II,
but will return Immediately after that
to go forward with the buildings. A
main irrigating ditch runs along the
west side of the school property, fur
nishing an abundance OF water. The
land is now in alfalfa. The buildings
will be erected upon the high land TO
the rear OF the property.

filter beds by means of an electric
pump.
In the residence section Of the
town the solution of the matter is not
so simple. The manholes are badly
constructed, and in some he found the
outlet pipe as much as six inches high
er than the inlet pipe. In laying the
pipe the cement at the joints squeezed
up and was allowed to harden, making
rough rims inside the pipes. This
must all be removed, and 1t can only
be done with great difficulty. In short
the whole job is a makeshift, and to
put it in proper condition will require
an expenditure of practically almost
as much, as the cost of a new sewer
system.
After considerable discussion, as an
expression of the sense of the meeting.
motion was passed that the county
commissioners, acting as town board
be recommended to call a special cleo
ton to vote on the issuance of bonds
in the sum of 100000 for sewer pur-
poses, with the idea of carrying out
the recommendations of Mr.. Kelsey.
1t has developed that the septic
tank was not built in accordance with
the plans and specifications. In order
to get the necessary fall the bottom
Of the tank was made four feet lower
than called for, and to this is due in
a large measure the backing up of the
water in the pipes. This was first dis
covered when the contract to dig the
tank was let to Rockwell & Sutton of
this place. They found that their con-
tract was not according to the plans,
but called for a depth of four feet
greater. When this fact was called
to the attention of the company that
laid the sewer system, they agreed to
pay Messrs. Rockwell & Sutton for
the work they had done and release
| them from the contract. AS there
| was no supervising engineer to check
I up the job this matter did not become
publicly known until recently.
The experience that Elko is having
| with its sewer system Is not an un-
common one. Many towns have had
the same experience. Sparks and Win
lnemucca both had practically the
same proposition to deal with owing
| to faulty construction, and Mr.. Kelsey
was finally called to both OF these
places to straighten matters out.
While 1t Is to be sincerely regret
ted that our sewer system was fault
! lily constructed, as the expense has al
| ready been burdensome, II will not
ditions to remain as they are now.
There is too great danger to public
health and safety. They must make
the best Of bad job and protect pub.
lie health regardless of cost. Every
| section of the town is suffering and
| there is not doubt that In case an
election Is called to vote on a bond
issue for an amount necessary to cor
l rect the condition that IL will carry
by a big majority.
The Independent hopes that the
| commissioners will expedite matters,
that the condition may be corrected
without delay. There can be no good
results from procrastination, and there
might be great harm. Let them face
tho matter at once, and this time pro.
fitting by the mistakes OF the past, It
should be seen to that there are no
bungles.

WONDERFUL SUBMARINE.
PICTURES AT WIGWAM

The great and eliminating purpose
Of the Williamsons was to take motion
pictures of shark in his native
haunts, in some exciting situations,
lighting with a man, if possible, or
with another shark. They were sue
cessful in their desires and with these
scenes recorded on their films they
were sure that they had added the
vital punch" so necessary for popular
appeal.
There were some obstacles in the
way, however, and they would need
the necessary bait to draw the mon
ster of the deep near enough to the
observation window to insure a good

ON THE GALLOWS
Italian Murderer is Quickly
Convicted by Snow
Hill Jury
TRIAL LASTED ONLY
As MINUTES

SNOW HILL, Md, Oct. 19.-Only
40 minutes we're consumed In the
trial, conviction and sentencing Of the
Italian, Carmine Stumpo, alias Frank
Grano, for the murder OF Mr.. and
Mrs. Levin Robinson and Alonzo Red
den, September 6. Grano was tried
under the Indictment for the killing
of Redden before Judges Stanford
and Jones. He was brought from
Baltimore on Sunday. There was no
disturbance.
During the proceedings the only oc-
currence TO break the monotony was
when one Of the witnesses produced
the pistol with which the killing was
done. The weapon was laid on the
lawyers table and pointed in the
/ direction Of one member OF the bar.
This lawyer camly arose from his
seat and turned the barrel in another
direction The court explained that
the pistol was not loaded.
Leroy Smith was appointed to de-
fond Grano. but the Italian objected
to the appointment and told the
court he needed no lawyer. Mr. Smith
was instructed to examine the wit
nesses. Grano afterwards consult
ed with the attorney during the ex-
animation Of the witnesses. The
States case consumed but 20 minutes,
four Witnesses being examined
William Johnson, an aged man
whom the Robinsons had befriended
and given a. home, was the first to
60 on the stand. He was an eye
witness to the killing OF Mrs. Robin
son, and tried TO warn Redden OF
the intention Of Grano. He told a
! coherent story of the shooting. Dur
/ ing the examination of Johnson the
Italian did not understand the pro-
ceedings. and asked an explanation
of Jailcr Richardson.
Charles Holland. a negro lad. who
was al work in the field with Red
den. told how Grano approached his
victim and the conversation between
/ the two. Otho Wilson told of the
capture OF the murderer, and Dr. Paul
Jones described the wounds that
caused the death Of Redden.
Grano, placed upon the stand, was
asked to tell OF the killing. He
protested that he did not call Mr.
Johnson a vile name and that he be.
lieved he was justified in doing the
