BIBLE TEACHINGS
=. CARRIED OUT
Just Before Second Coming Of Christ
Mems Hearts Would Fail for
Fear-Luke Fl: 20. ,--
CONDITIONS ARE UNPREcEDENT'D
Men Look Into the Future With Fore
bodings-Master Said Such
Would be the Case.

To the Editor:
When the Master was here, He
foretold that the conditions of the
world just before His second coming
would be so terrifying that mems
hearts" would be failing them for
fear, and for looking after those
things which are coming on the earth:
for the powers of heaven shall be
shaken" Luke 21:26.
On every hand men are heard to
say that the conditions of this time
are unprecedented. Never before were
such unrest, distress, and perplexity
in the society that makes up the var
ious nations. Men are looking into the
future with forebodings. The Master
said that such would be the case. He
said that hearts would be failing
through fear But in the same connec-
ton, the Lord also said, And when
these things begin to come to pass,
then look up and lift up your heads;
for your redemption draweth nigh"
Luke 21:2S.
The fear that possesses the hearts
of men of the world will not enter in
to the life of the follower of the bless
Gu 11C has pAoNluCu q
refuge for those who will seek it, and
who can be induced to trust him. Ev-
cry one Of the great promises of the
sacred Word are applicable at this
time; and although wars and rumOrs
of wars, and storms and disasters Of
every kind and description may be
causing some mems hearts to, quail,
the Christian knows what these
things mean. He knows that although
the great storm is raging In this
world of sin. yet He who can command
the elements when He wills. has spo-
ken the word into the soul of His fol-
lower, Peace, be still" In such storms
and stress as the world is now pass
ing through, it is worth everything
to know the calm, confident trust of
Christian heart. Indeed, there is no.
thing else in the world that is worth
compared with this Christ
ian experience. Christ is the All-poW-
erful One, and the Christian knows
him personally. He knows, from per-
sonal experience, His saving grace
and protection. Therefore will not
we fear, though the earth be removed,
and though the mountains be carried
into the midst of the sea; though the
waters thereof roar and be troubled,
though the mountains shake with the
swelling thereof" Ps. 46:2,3.

MORMON BATTLIoN OF 1886
Five Companies Of Mormons Raised
in Iowa for Participation in
.f.-E, the Mexican War. ..

One of the Interesting events which
occurred in Iowa during the Mexican
war was the raising of the Mormon
Battalion" an account of which is to
be found in one Of the publications of
the State Historical Society of Iowa.
Upon the outbreak of hostilities Gen
eral Kearny despatched James Allen.
an officer we'll known in Iowa, to enlist
recruits among the Mormons who
were then scattered along the trail
across Iowa after having been ex-
PEELED from Illinois. It was just after
the Mormons had planned their set
Element at Mt. Pisgah that Captain AL
len arrived, issued his Circular to
the Mormons" and, accompanied by
Brigham Young, proceeded to their
camp on the Missouri river There
he opened a recruiting Office, secured
five companies of one hundred men
each, gave the Mormon refugees a
fete or ball, which is said to have been
a fine affair, and then conducted the
volunteers to the rendezvous at Fort
,Leavenworth. An ex.eder of the Nor.
mon church later declared that these
five hundred men were practically
compelled to enlist by their leader,
Brigham Young.

BURNED OUT THIRD TIME.
New Store Of Frank Ehricks, Of As
pinwalI, BurnkdrThird Fire
for Mr.. Ehricks.

s. 70 H p p ~ av
The new store Of Frank Ehrichs. at
Aspinwall was burned down early in
the morning last Wednesday. The
fire was of unknown origin and con-
sumed the entire stock and store, not
a thing being saved.
This is the third time Mr.. Ehrichs
has suffered loss of his store by fire.
The last time was about year ago
when the frame store building was en-
tirely destroyed with the stock. Mr..
Ehrichs went ahead and rebuilt the
store, this time of brick, and had &C.
cupied it only five weeks. 1t was a
fine building, Ga feet square, with half
of it used for implements and the 9TH
er half for a general store and the
post office. The stock was at least
10000 and the building was worth
over $4,000. There was not much in
surance on the building and stock this
time, as the building was considered
quite safe from fire.
Those who arrived at the fire first
say that the entire inside was aflame
when they got there and it was impos-
sible to get in to save thing. The sup
position is that spontaneous combus.
ton from paint or oiled rags left in
the store after it's completion might
have caused the fire.

was there, it is said, that Smittle got
his tip that the men were shooting
song birds as matter of sport in the
various towns they visit. He came to
Denison and caught them. |
Mr.. Smittle declared he is going to

HUGHES LABOR RECORD.

u When Mr.. GOmpers, remembering
only that he, is a Democrat and for
getting that he Is leader Of organ
lied labor, ventured to assert that
Mr.. Hughes is unfriendly to labor be-
cause he concurred in the unanimous
decision in the Danbury hatters' case.
he ventured on very thin Ice. The
Chicago Tribune promptly reminds
him that an honest Judge must apply
the law as he thinks 1t Is, not a.
he thinks 1t ought to be; and asks
him to tell those who look to him
for political advice something about
the record Of Mr.. Hughes as Gov.
ernor. Read what the Legislative
Labor News. the official organ Of the
New York Federation of Labor, said
editorially when Mr.. Hughes left the
Governors chair at Albany for his
place on the supreme court. Here It
is:
"Now that Gov. Hughes has retired
from politics and assembled to a place
on the highest judicial tribunal In the
world, the fact can be acknowledged,
without hurting anybody's political
corns that he was the greatest friend
of labor laws that ever occupied the
Governors chair at Albany. During
his two terms he, has signed ffty-six
labor laws, including among them the
best labor laws ever enacted In this
or any state M2s az gsFT i4s t%
HE also urged the enactment of
labor laws In his messages to the
Legislature, even going SO far as to
place the demand for labor law In
one of his messages to an extra ses-
sion Of the Legislature. =
"Only 1852 labor laws have been
enacted in this state since its erec-
ton in 1777-in 1873 years. One-third
of these, exceeding In quality all of
the others, have been enacted and
signed during Gov. Hughes term Of
three years and nine months"
Let organized labor take to heart
what the Chicago Tribune says on.
this point: "Mr. Hughes Is no DEM
agosue and no visionary. He is a
man of courage and conscience. and
If labor cannot confide its cause to,
his rock-bottom Americanism there Is
something wrong with its cause. -"
