Delson In Com mand. DUBUQUE, Iowa, Oct. 16.—After lying at her dock for seven months after being completed, the big trans fer boat, "B. P. Yoakum," built by the Dubuque Boat and Boiler Works, left here at 8 o'clock Saturday morning bound for Galland, at the head of the Keokuk rapids, to await the flood wat er coming down from the Black, Upper Mississippi and "Wisconsin rivers, which it is expected will give enough water to take the big boat over the rapids, it being too large to be ac commodated by the government locks. The boat was built for the 'Frisco lines, to be used as a car transport at Baton Rouge, La., and with the Alba tross, a sister ship, built here two years ago, will be the largest steamer on the Mississippi river. The big boat is 305 feet long, 32 feet 6 Inches beam and draws Tour feet of water when not loaded. Across the guard railB the boat measures even ninety feet ana carries two standard gauge tracks capable of accommodating from six teen to twenty ordinary freight cars. The power plant consists of two en gines, each of twenty-slx-lnoh bore and teo-foot stroke, developing 1,000 horsepower, and a battery of Bonson boilers also built here. Over 1,500 tons of steel entered into the construc tion of the monster, which Is the larg est ever built on an Inland waterway. The boat is in charge of Captain Thomas Delson, of Dubuque, one of the most widely experienced steam boat captains on the Mississippi river. $100 REWARD, $100.

Symbolic, Not Literal, Fire Is Im minent. Pastor Russell Says Our Lord Said Nothing About the End of the Earth, Simply the End of the World—Lon don Tabernacle Crowded. Oct 15. —LON DON TABERNACLE, Lancaster Qate W., was crowded today to hear Pastor Russell. He spoke of mis taken notions re the end of the world. He as sured his audi ence that "the earth abldeth' forever," end claimed that er PASTOR. RUSSELL rors were built upon misinterpreta tions of Scripture. His text was Reve lation x, 6, 7, "And the angel sware that the time should be no long er (delayed)." Pastor Russell declared that his text has no reference to the end of time that time could never end, mnst al ways endure. The word delayed should have been added by the trans lators to catch the proper thought The time mentioned would no longer be delayed. The fulfilment of delayed promises would be accomplished. These views in recent years have been most pronouncedly voiced by Christian brethren styled Adventists. but really are to be found in nearly a a the creeds of Christendom. The erroneous theory has been further bol stered np by the misinterpretations of our Lord's words translated the end of the world. Our Lord said nothing about the end of the earth, gc what He did mention was the end of the aion or Age In which we live. Various aions or ages have followed one another, each ending In turn and giving place to another. So the present oton or age, we believe, will soon give place to a better aion or Age—t he aion or age in which sin and death have reigned will give place to an aion or Age In which Christ and His Chnrch will reign tri umphant. Heavens and Earth on Fire Those who have not learned that the Bible frequently uses language In a symbolical manner may be excused for taking literally some of St Peter's statements respecting the burning of the heavens and the earth. A critical study shows that the Apostle could not have referred to the literal earth and the llternl heavens as being con sumed. He used the term earth sym bolically, os representing society, of which the mountains or kingdoms are the backbone, just as he used the word heavens to represent the ecclesiastical powers which are even now rolling to gether as a scroll from the two ends— the one Protestant, the other Cath olic. The social conflagration is being generally feared. Although many expect the social con flagration, not many yet fear the re ligious blnze' predicted by the Apostle. It surely will rorae: not a Jot or tittle will fail. The religious "heavens" and the social "earth" will catch fire to gether. After the grent conflagration, upon the ashes of human institutions. Messiah will establish the Kingdom of glory and blessing in the interests of our poor, dying race. The "new heavens" will be the new ecclesiastical power the Church in glory. The "new earth" will be the new social arrange ment which Messiah will inaugurate. Some of the Difficulty The early Church hoped. In harmony with the Apostolic teachings, for Mes siah's Kingdom to be established and for the resulting "times of restitution of all things which God hath spoken by the mouth of all the holy Prophets since the world began."—Acts Hi, 19-21. After the Apostles fell asleep and the Kingdom still delayed, false doc trines crept Into the Church, amongst others the theory that Christ's King dom was not to be waited for—that it came at Pentecost and the Apostles did not know of it: that it must conquer Its way to the Throne of earth—that con verts must be made even though the assistance of inqulsitionary torments were necessary to effect this. False Kingdoms of God When the Protestant Reformation re nounced Catholicism and denounced it as Anti-Christ it proceeded, neverthe less, along the same lines. Various Protestant Churches did their best to fill the place which Papacy claimed and to get earthly kingdoms to support their claims to spiritual domination. Thus the Cznr of Russia is the Head of the Greek Church. Emperor Wil liam is the Head of the Lutheran sys lue ^utueran sys- Si"JSUT" None of these are Kingdoms of Christ, nor could all of them together, called "Christendom," hope ever to bring to pass the glorious things promised of Messiah's Empire—that "every knee shall bow and every tongue confess to the plory of God." Indeed. It is becoming more widely known daily that heathendom, as well as Christendom, is doubling in popula tion each eonfurv -Read The Daily Gate City. FUNDS General Grading Improvempt ...

Singer's latest musical offering that will be seen at the Grand next Wed nesday evening, the audience is brought in touch with the master problem of the world, namely the love of a man for a girl. But In this in stance this love is brought about through the efforts of the man, who known as a confirmed woman-hater finally becomes an ardent lover.-The piece is well named the "Heart Breakers" as that is the title of a club formed by a crowd of young men who try to break the hearts of all the young girls they come in contact with. But they finally succumb to the young women's charms. George Dam erel, who will be remembered as the Prince in the "Merry Widow" will play the leading role and he is ably supported by an all star cast. Of course it would not bear the stamp of a Singer success unless there were the usual charming chorus and in this Mr. Singer has outdone himself. Seats now on sale. 'Rosalind at Red Gate."
