Comes to Earth for the Third Time as th Restorer of All Things, af Prophet,Priest and Rnler Over All Men. Chicago, June 2. I am Elijah, the prophet, who appeared, first as Elijah himself, second as John the Baptist, and who now comes in as the restorer of all things. Elijah was a prophet, John was a preacher, but I combine in myself the attributes of prophet priest and ruler over men. Gaze on me then; I say it fearlessly. Make the most of it, you wretches in ecclesiastical garb. I am he that is the living, physical and spiritual embodiment of Elijah and my coming to earth a third time has been prophesied by Malachi, y God Himself, by His son, Jesus, by Peter and three thousand years ago by Moses. All who believe me to be in very truth all of this will stand up." And over 3,000 people rose to their feet and greeted the declaration with cheers and handclapping. John Alexander Dowie, true to his promises, made this statement from the platform of the auditorium to night, in the presence of 5,000 people. It was the culmination of a frenzied speech, in which he denounced every body and everything in Zion, cursed the Tope and the Roman Catholic church, spat literary at Masonry, the newspapers and bankers of Chicago, and raged and tore up and down the stage like a mad man. "Understand well what I mean," he continued. "I will take no counsel in my methods of government. I have come to proclaim theoracy, pure and simple, the government of God, by God and for God, and I will never rest till all other forms of government have been driven from the earth. "You talk about your democracy. Bah! Bah! I tell you democracy, has been tried in the .balance and has fail ed. The government of the people by the people . and for the people is twaddle. I stand loyal to the flag and countenance no revolution, but I de mand here and now that the name of God must be placed foremost in the constitution of the United States and the supreme authority of God over all things must be recognized, 'Listen to the first message of the prophet,'.' he demanded. " You must pay; your tithes . and offerings into the storehouse of (Jod, Accursed be ye of ye would seek to rob His house of its fulness ; by pot obeying" this, His will, sent through Mijan.' ;v RETlTJRtfEO HIS RINGS. .... .frf? . . V- . .j.ltrAeAAs The Interesting: Situation of a Young Man at Burlington. ' Burlington lessengerl v- She was standing in the waiting; room at the depot one evening this week, listlessly gazing upon the open stretch of track that leads towards the sunset, when suddenly within her ken. there appeared another young lady; walking rapidly toward the station. The face of the first lady mentioned flushed as the second party drew near, and it was noticed that the greeting" was exceedingly frigid when the sec ond j-oung lady entered the waiting, r??! They evidently knew each oth er in fact knew each other too well-5 and a young man, who later appeared upon the scenez knew the one entirely too well to please the other. And thus the trouble brewed. Lady No, 1, with features indicating firmness", ahd a de termination to accomplish her pur pose, quietly removed a ring from a. finger of her left hand and tossed it toward the young man in her presence. Not a word was uttered, but one could . rpad volumes in the countenances of the two. Lady No. 2 was quick to grasp the situation and likewise removed a ring from a corresponding finger of the left hand and returned it to the donor, who now stood aghast, nervously hand ling the rings. With a confiding glance the ladies left the young man in the waiting -room, and repaired to a safe distance -to compare notes.
