in this city) take9 exception to the
transparency that reiteruted the senti

The representative of the IIekai.d
listened to the closing eentenccs of
the speech made by this lellow. Sher

the fcjhermanites "wolud call a Dutch-
man" referred to his record aud de
meanor while a resident of Nebraska,
and ventured the remark "that citizens
of his class were quite as good as the
Sherman heretica." Our fellow laborer
in the press gang, by courtesy styled a
contemporary, like the craven that he
is, apologized for what he had said,
venturing by way of parenthesis, to
say that his bearers bad misunuerstoou
him, and saddled the responsibility of
his heresy on his eastern exchanges
The Democratic hearers of the gifted

Several years ago one "Blind John"
Boone, a weaving, restless colored lad,
a genuine musical prodigy aud wonder
appeared at the opera house here and
gained some laurels and much praise
lrom those who went to hear him. He
visited a number of other points in the
state, and everywhere tho) press and
musicians were loud in thir praise for
1 i jo, d eclaring that even then, he wag
ejual to Blind Tom in many respects
and his ideas of classical music caused
many to pronounce him Tom's superi
or. From .Nebraska the boy was taKen
te Towa, Illinois, Michigan and Ohio,
and then to Kansas, and, if we may
judge from the statements of the press
and of musieians, opera house man
agers and professors of h igh standing
in those states, then Blind Boone is in
deed great. The prevailing opinion
along the route traveled by him seemed
to be that, being intelligent, he is able
to comprehend and grap ideas which
Blind Tom could not, Tom being a
simpleton. We learn that he will make
a tour through this state, beginning in
August. He will come as "Blind
Boone" the name John having been
dropped. It was the intention of the
managers to begin their Nebraska tour
here, but the opera house will not be
in readiness until September, hence, we
will be deprived of the pleasura of
healing him after his wonderful de
velopment, unless perchance, arrange
ments be made to have him exhibit in
one of the halls or churches. A state
ment f ro n the president of the Young
lVople's Society, of Lawrence, Kansas,
shows that he played to nearly 809 peo

"Ve are never too old to learn, " is a
true eayiug, and almost every day

observant mind.
So it is now in the latter days many
new lessons are to be learned and many
old ones, learned in error, must give
way to the truth at last.
Now this doctrine, the subject of the 1
second annealing of Christ, is made
very prominent in the scriptures; but
we lose sight of it by accepting theories
found elsewhere. We often hear the
statement that death, or conversion, is
the second appearing of Christ, and it
is received by many without a thought.
as to the atter impossibility of such a
procedure. Do not the Spiritualists
generally agree in saying, "Lo, here is
the second adyent of Christ," in the
manifestations of spiritualism? Are
not these false prophets who have aris
en at this day to deceive the people,
in regard to His second coming, the
same as the false prophets who arose
to deceive the Jews at His first aDDear-
ing? Math. 24:4-5. It certainly

prophets and warned us against their

Lord could have employed to illus

Agaiu, can the prophecies be under
