    FRANCE'S WAR
MINISTER KILLED
Monoplane Plunges Into Group
of Members of Cabinet.
PRIME MINISTER IS INJURED.
Accident Occurs on Aviation Field,
Where 200,000 Persona Hid Gath
ered to Witness Start of Race Driv
er Loses All Control of Machine.
Paris, May 22. Fiance paid a terri
ble toll for its magnificent endeavor to
Ittaln supremacy of the air when a
monoplane, the driver of which had
lost control, plunged Into a group of
members of the cabinet, who had gath
ered to witness the Htart of the race
from Paris to Madrid, killing the min
ister of war and Injuring the prima
minister, his bod and a well known
iportamnn.
The dead: Henri Maurice Rerteaux,
tnlnluter of war.
The injured: Antoine Emmanuel
Ernest Monin, premier and minister
jt tho Interior; Antoinc Monls, son of
the , premier; Henri DeutHch de la
Mourlhe, the aged patron of aero
nautics. The accident occurred on the avia
tion field at Issy lea Mollneux, where
2K),000 persons had gathered to see
the start of the race.
Aviators Not Hurt.
M. Train waa piloting the mono
plane. With him In the car was M.
Bonnier, a passenger. Neither of
thce men was injured. The machine
Was wrecked.
Minister of War Berteaux was hor
ribly mangled. The swiftly rovolvlng
propeller cut off his left arm, which
waa found ten feet away from the spot
where he was struck, the back of his
bead was crushed in, his throat gashed
and the whole of his left side cut and
lacerated.
Premier Monls was hurled beneath
the wreckage of the monoplane. He
was taken out as quickly as possible
and examined by military surgeons,
who found he had sustained com
pound fractures of two bones In the
right leg, thai his nose was broken,
his face hadty contused and there
were bruises on the breast and abdo
men. Approach for Closer View.
The line of spectators bordering
the flying field was held rigid by sol
dier, whu permitted the ministerial
party and some halt hundred other
parsons of distinction to walk across
the field to where they could get a
tetter view down the course and see
the airmen as they rose from the start
ing point.
Train left the ground. Ascending;
swiftly, he circled the field, curving
round to tho starting line and then
flying down the course at forty miles
an hour, his machine rocking In the
wind. At this moment it was observed
by the commandant of the troops that
the crowds were breaking the line
formation on one side of the field and
he dispatched a troop of cuirassiers
to . get them back In order. The
cuirassiers galloped across the field,
breaking Into double linen an they
went.
Loses Control of Machine.
' Truln's monoplane horn swooped to
ward the earth under the Impulse of
on air Hurry and It appeared as (hough
the uvlator was about to dash Into the
cavalry. The pilot's attention seemed
momentarily to have been diverted
from his course and he made a quick
turn to the loft, toward where the
party of officials were standing. Then
he lost control of the craft altogether
and It dashed violently Into tho min
isterial group.
The Impact knocked M. Herteaux
ten feet away, where he lay In a pool
t,t blood, badly mangled, while under
the wreckage of tho monoplano lay
Itemler Monls, his son and M
Deulsch. Train and M. Bonnier
emerged from the wreck uninjured.
A scene of frightful confusion fol
lowed. From all parts of thn field
arose cries of alarm and dismay and
tens of thousands of persons broke
through the lines and moved toward
the scene. The cavalry, by repeated
charges, managed to clesr the field
and the Injured men were given first
aid treatment by the field surgeons.
It was seen that M. Berteaux was fa
tally hurt and that M. Monls was sort
Ouely Injured. After the ministers hsd
been cared for the aurgeons dressed
the wounds of those who had received
minor braises.
There are various versions as to the
cause of the" accident, but everyone
seems to agree that It occurred
with such rapidity there was no time
for M. Berteaux, M. Monls and the
others to escape

INSANE MAN
KILLSPATIENT
Martin Skow Chckes Fellow In
mate ot Asylum at Lincoln.
FOUR PERSONS IN THE ROOM.
Attendants at Asylum Say Skow Has
Been Model Patient and Has Never
Given Cause for Any Suspicion,
Slayer Tells of His Deed.
Lincoln, May 22 Martin Skow
murdered Charles Brookman by chok
iug him to death. Both are inmates
at the Insane asylum. The crime
was not discovered until morning.
when the breakfast call was given at
the state institution. Four patients
were in the room In which the murder
was committed, the other two beside
the murderer and his victim not hear
ing a suund and not knowing that the
deed had been done until they awoke
in the morning.
Skow talks very freely of his crime
and tells how he did it in a most un
concerned manner. He declared that
he simply took the suspenders off a
pair of bib overalls which he was
wearing and tied them around Brook
man's neck and then holding a pillow
over his mouth, twisted the suspend
ers until Ufa was extinct. He asserted
that he waited until the night watch
of the ward had gone to the other end
of the hall before he did the deed
The attendants at the asylum state
that Skow since he has been here has
been a model patient and that he has
never given the least cause to sus
picion that he would do such a thing.
The man, who Is a Dane, about twen
ty-two years old, says that the man
had hit him In the back the night be
fore and that he simply wanted to get
him out of the way so that it would
not be repeated.
The Douglas county patient was
brought here in February. Brookman,
his victim, had been In the asylnm
over seven years. The latter waa
formerly a street ear conductor in this
city and is survived by a brother, who
Is In the employ of the Burlington in
this city.

ASCENDED UP ON HIGH
WHEREHEWAS BEFORE
How He Led a Multitude ot
Captives.
What the Ascension of Jesus Im
plied For Himself and For
the World.
Baltimore, Md,
May 21. Pastor
Russell of the
Brooklyn Taberna
cle preached here
twice today to
large and atten
tive audiences. We
report one of his
discourses from
the text, "When
He ascended up on
high ne led a multitude of captives"
(Epbeslans lv, 8-10).
In this week occurs the anniversary
of Jesus' ascension. In one sense of
the word our Lord ascended (that Is,
from human nature and the tomb, to
the dlvlue nature and Immortality) at
the time of Ills resurrection from the
dead. He tarried, however, for forty
days, with the Apostles for their es
tablishment and Instruction He on
the spirit plane, Invisible to them, ex
cept when he manifested Itlmself by
appearing miraculously In various
forms to convince them that lie was
no longer deceased, and also that He
was no longer confined to human con
ditionsthat Ills resurrection bad
made Illm again a spirit being on the
higher plane, where He was before
lie took human nature for the suffer
ing of death, for the redemption of
humanity.
Not alone by Ills words, but also by
Ills conduct, our Lord taught Ills fol
lowers. They had not as yet been be
gotten of the Holy Spirit, and hence
could not understand or appreciate
spiritual things. The could there
fore receive instruction only along nat
ural lines. Jesus was raised from the
dead a spirit being, far above angels,
principalities and powers. Had He
then gone directly to the Father with
out manifesting- Himself to His disci
ples, they would never hare been able
to understand the truth of the matter.
nence their lessons were given them
largely in pantomime, corroborated by
the Master's words, explaining that It
was necessary that Messiah should
die In order that He might redeem the
world, and that It was also necessary
that He ascend up on high and re
enter upon the spiritual plane of ex
istence, wblcb ne had before lie came
Into the world in order that from
that blgber plane of being ne might
be the more capable of filling the
great Office of Prophet, Priest, Medi
ator and Kins of the world.
"Flesh and Blood Cannot Inherit the
Kingdom of God."
Not only, therefore, did Jesus mani
fest Himself during tho forty days,
some seven times, for a few moments
each time, in various forms, but final
ly, at the conclusion of the forty days,
He ascended In full view of Ills dis
ciples. This was one way of telling
them of His ascension, that He had
gone to the Father, that they need not
expect to see Him again as formerly.
We are not, however, to suppose for
a moment that Jesus ascended a fleshly
or human being; we remember, on the
contrary, that "flesh nud blood cannot
Inherit the Kingdom of God," and that
"He was put to death In the flesh but
quickened In the spirit," and that
thenceforth, ns the Apostle declares,
"The Lord Is that Spirit" (11 Corlu
thhuis 111, 17).
Seen by 8sul of Tarsus.
The Apostles were to bear witness
to the resurrection of Jesus; but Judas
having lost his place, and It having
been given to St. Taul, It was proper
that the latter, as well as the rest of
the Apostles, should be able to bear
witness to Jesus' resurrection. Re
counting those who hnd seen the Lord
after His resurrection, In some of the
various manifestations, St Paul says,
"Last of all He was seen of me also,
as one born before the time."
Jesus appeared to St Paul In the
glorious brightness of nis Spirit Be
ing, "shining above the brightness of
the sun at noonday." The sight caused
Injury to the eyes of the beholder.
Such a manifestation would have been
Inappropriate and unsatisfactory had
the Redeemer so appeared to the elev
eu during the forty days. How could
they have Identified the glorious Per
sonage, who shone above the bright
ness of the sun at noonday, as the Lord
Jesus, whom they had known for
years. How could they have been en
abled to fully Identify Illm, In Ills
many different appearances, with His
former self their Friend, their Teach
er? But to Saul of Tarsus, the reveal
ing In fiery light, r.bove the noonday
glare, was very appropriate. It con
vinced him, In a manner that no human
appearance In the flesh could have
equalled, that Jesus was no longer a
man and that He was no Impostor. St
Paul's conversion was Instantaneous.
"Who art thou Lord?" be asked. "1
ra Jesus Whom thou persecutest"
still represented In My followers, of
whom St. Stephen was one, whom you
murdered, and others of whom you
have been hailing to prison.
It should not cause us to marvel that
Jesus ascended ns He declared, "up
where He was before" (John vl, C2). It
should not surprise us that tho Heav
enly Father gave Illm back all the
glory and honor which ne had before
y ; 1
vine nature, and entirely disassoci
ated from human nature.
Thinking of the Lord at nis second
advent as a glorified mas, they asso
ciate Him with a material throne and
an earthly court. This. In turn, leads
other Christian people In an oppo
site direction. Realizing that such
an earthly kingdom would be a step
backward rather than a step forward,
they deny the second coming of Mes
siah to establish the Kingdom bo long
promised.
The proper thought Is that Jesus, In
the flesh, accomplished the work
which the Father had given Him to
do, when He sacrificed His earthly
life. The Father gloriously rewarded
Him on the spirit plane. Now He Is
waiting for the gathering of Ills
Church. Ills Bride, Ills Elect. These
are to share In His resurrection to the
divine nature and to sit with Him in
His throne. Then the Kingdom of
Messiah, so long promised, will begin
to bless the world, using as its earth
ly representatives, visible to men, Abra
ham, Isaac and Jacob and all the
Ancient Worthies, mentioned In He
brews xl, 38-40; through whom the
blessing will extend to Natural Israel
and to all the families of the earth
(Acts 111, 19-21).
A Multitude of Captives.
Our text, In a figurative way, repre
sents the ascension of Jesus from the
earthly plane to the heavenly as the
triumph of a great Conqueror. Sin
had gained ascendency over Adam and
his race, and had brought mankind low
to the dust, mentally, morally and
physically. Moreover, this victory over
man had been gained In a legal man
nerthrough one man's disobedience
(Romans v, 12). The Logol divested
Himself of His glory on the spirit
plane, was made flesh, fulfilled the de
mands of the Law, proved Himself
competent to pay the sinner's Ransom
price, and gave Himself a Ransom for
all, "to be testified In due time" , (I
Timothy II, C). Having finished II is
sacrificial work He was received again
to the spirit nature with exceeding
glory and to the right hand of the
Majesty on high.
Thus the great Conqueror Is seen re
turning to the heavenly state, acclaim
ed by the Heavenly nost; and follow
ing Illm far down the centuries, the
prophetic view saw, first the Church,
the "Royal Priesthood." "His broth
pen," "His Bride," delivered from the
power of sin and death, through the
merit of nis blood. And these were
but the first corps of a following host;
they were "a kind of first-fruits to
God of His creatures," rescued from
sin and from death (James L 18; Rev
elation xlv, 4).
Later on, stretching down for a thou
sand years beyond the Church's deliv
erance, the prophetic pen foretells
countless hosts of every nation, peo
ple, kindred and tongue, to be deliv
ered from the power of sin and death
through the merit of nim Who died,
"the Just for the unjust" Now the
Savior of the Church. His Bride, He
will shortly be the Savior of the world,
its Great King, Great Teacher. Great
Priest, Great Mediator.
Then will come the glorious consum
mation, when nil who will have re
fused Divine grace shall have been de
stroyed In the Second Death then shall
be heard every creature In heaven and
on earth and under the earth saying,
"Glory to God In the Highest." Thence
forth there Khali be no more crying nor
dying, for all the former things of sin
and death shall have passed away.
"Times of Restitution, Which God Hath
Spoken."
At our Lord's First Advent the "ac
ceptable time" began the time when
God, having accepted the sacrifice of
Christ Jesus, became willing through
Illm to accept the sacrifices of all who
desire to become Ills disciples to take
up their cross and follow Him through
evil report and good report even unto
death. The entire Gospel Age anti
types Israel's Day of Atonement, nnd
the sacrifices of our Lord and the
Church, Ills Body, nre the "better sac
rifices," foreshadowed by the bullock
and tho goat offered typically by the
Jews (Hebrews ix. 19-23).
This Is the acceptable year of the
Lord which Jesus declared (Isaiah Ixl,
2; Luke lv, 19). God's faithful people
of this acceptable day are glad to be
Invited to "present their bodies living
sacrifices, holy and acceptable unto
God" (Romans xll, 1). In the end of
this acceptable day will come the end
of all opportunity to thus sacrifice the
human nature and become Jolnt-helrs
with Christ nnd partakers of the heav
enly nature.
Then will be Introduced n new period
styled, In the Scriptures, "Times (or
years) of Restitution." The acceptable
day for the Church's sacrifice has last
ed for nearly nineteen centuries. And
we know how long the "Times of Res
titution" will Inst nearly a thousand
years.
St Peter tells us Just when these
"Restitution Times" will begin. They
did not begin In his day. They have
not begun yet. They will begin as a
result of the Second Advent of Jesus,
the Messiah, and the establishment
of Ills Kingdom nnd righteousness,
"Times of refreshing sbnll coi.ie from
the presence of the Lord nnd He I'luill
send Jesus Christ, ns before was
preached unto you, whom the heaven
must retain until tho Times of Resti
tution of nil things which God hath
spoken by the mouth of all the holy
prophets since the world begnu.
"For Moses verily said unto the fa
thers, A Prophet like unto me (of
whom I nm but n type or figure) shall
the Lord your God raise up unto you
from amongst your brethren. Him
sbnll ye hear In nil things whatsoever
He shall spenk unto you. And It sbnll
come to pass that the soul that will
not oley thnt Prophet shall le de
stroyed from nnionpM tii people"
(Acts 111. 10 2.11-1(1 .be F.'nd Death
He came Into the world with added
glory. It should not surprise us there
fore, that the Apostle declares that He
ascended. In dignity and station, far
above angels, principalities and pow
ers, and every name that Is named!
(Epbeslans I, 21.) On the contrary, It
would be both equitable and God-like
thnt the great Jehovah should highly
honor His faithful, Only Begotten Son,
the First and the Last, the Beginning
and the Ending of the creation of God
(Revelation nil, 13). Could we for
one moment suppose that our great
Creator would allow Ills faithful Son,
or any servant, to lay down life In Di
vine service, and to suffer loss as a
consequence of nis obedience? Is It
not much more rational to believe, as
the Scriptures declare, "nim hath God
highly exalted" (PhUipplans 11. 9).
The Ascended One Descended.
Pastor Russell called attention to the
Apostle's phraseology in the context
that the Ascended Oue had previously
descended, and that the ascending and
descending were related as cause and
effect The One who ascended up on
high completely filled the highest po
sition In the great, Divine Government
of the Universe as Head of principali
ties and powers, angels and men next
to the Father. Yet, the Apostle warns
us that we must not Identify the glori
fied One with the. One Who, In obedi
ence to the Father's will, bumbled
Himself to come down from the heav
enly nature and glory to the earthly
station where lie, as a man, humbled
Himself unto death, even unto the Ig
nominious death of the cross.
The Apostle calls our attention to
these two extremes the extreme of
humlllntlon and the extreme of exal
tation, both accomplished in the Son
of God, the Logos, The Christ
If some of us at one time misunder
stood the Scriptures and supposed that
our Lord Jesus ascended to heaven In
a physical condition, as a man, we en
tirely misunderstood the Scriptures
He Who was rich, as the Logo In
glory, preserved nis identity when He
was made poor for our sins, made fleh,
that He might be our Redeemer. Simi
larly, that Redeemer preserves His
Identity now that He has been made
rich again now that He has been re
ceived up to the Spirit Plane of glory,
honor and Immortality, the divine na
ture. To suppose that Jesus went to heav
en a man Is to mistake the significance
of His title, The Son of Man, which
He maintains, as Identifying Him with
His great redemptive work as one of
His many titles. To suppose that Jesus
Is a human being In heaven would be
to suppose that He Is still ss when
In the flesh, "a little lower than the
angels," whereas the Scriptures de
clare that ne has ascended far higher,
so that all the angels of God, as well
as men, are commanded to worship
Him. To suppose Jesus In heaven a
human being would be to suppose Ulm
out of all harmony with heavenly,
spiritual conditions and surroundings.
Moreover, are we not told that the
Church of Christ will be changed from
the human to the spirit condition in the
resurrection, and tbnt this chnnge will
make the "elect of God" ilke their Re
deemer, so that they may see Ulm as
He is, not as He was that they may
see Him In glory, honor and Immor
tality, exaltation, and not as the hu
miliated One, Who was made fesh that
He might sacrifice Ills tsb on man's
behalf? When we so thought we for
got the Scriptural declaration that
"flesh and blood cannot Inherit the
Kingdom of God," hence that all those
called to be partakers of the dlvlue
nature and heavenly Kingdom with
their Redeemer and Lord must be made
like Him by the power of the First
Resurrection.
Difficulties of Unbelievers.
The Pastor declared that he had
found worldly-wise people very skep
tical respecting the descent of the
Logos, the Son of God, to earthly con
ditions; but that Christians seem to
have more difficulty than the world in
comprehending the return, the ascen
sion of Jesus to the spirit plane and Its
excellent glory. Both points, however,
are important, necessary, as the Apos
tle declares In the context Whoever
is unable to see that the Logos, the
glorious Son of the Highest, bumbled
Himself, divested Himself of the Spir
it Nature nnd took Instead human na
ture, cannot see that Jesus was sin
less. And those who cannot recognize
that He was holy, harmless, undefiled
and separate from the sinner race (He
brews vil, 20), cannot believe Initio
sacrifice of Jesus as being a RatVoi
price for Adam, to effect his release
and that of bis race from condemna
tion. Pastor Russell went Into considera
ble detail respecting the manner by
which the Logos was transferred from
heavenly conditions to earthly condi
tions, and how His purity. His perfec
tion of Orguuism, His freedom from
sin was preserved, notwithstanding the
fact that he was" born of an earthly
mother who was not free from the
blemishes of Adam's race. He prof
fered his hearers, free upon applica
tion, a treatise entitled "Tho Undefiled
One," which he believed showed scien
tifically the process used of God by
which the Lopot was changed from the
higher to the human nature, yet pre
served Immaculate.
The error of supposing that Jesus Is
still a man signifies the denial of Ills
word, that He would ascend up where
ne was before, nud the denial of the
Apostle's teaching that He has been
highly exalted to glory nnd distinc
tion, the divine nature, as instead of
human nature. This error, the Pastor
declared, had led to other errors, one
of which he cited, namely, the error
made by many Christian people of ex
pecting the second coming of Jesus In
the flesh as a glorious mas and not as
a glorious Spirit, Partaker of the dl-
