RESOLUTIONS.
Whereas, It has pleased the Great
Head of the Church, to remove from
the Church Militant, to the Church
Triumphant, our esteemed brother.
Joseph F. Watson, we, the West Wash
ington Street Baptist church, offer the
following resolutions, as testimony of
the esteem, and affection, in which we
held our brother. Resolved,
1st, That this Church feels sorely the
bereavement sustained in the death of
Brother Watson, who was ever faith
ful to every duty entailed upon him
by the church, and was even though
young in years much sought after for
his sound advice and counsel.
2d, That not only in the Church pro
per, is Brother Watson's loss felt, but
also in the b. Y. P. U., and Sunday
school, will he be sadly missed, as he
was actively indentifled with the work,
in both of these branches, not only here
but through the State at large.
3rd, That though this dispensation
of providence is a shock to us, and we
do sincerely mourn our brother, and
shall miss him in all our counsels, yet
our heartV'go out in tenderest sympa
thy to his sisters and those relatives
to whom he was dear, commending
them to look to Christ, 'The Man of
of Sorrows and acquainted with grief,"
for comfort and strength, in this, their
hour of great trial and trouble.
4th, That while we cannot see now
why this dear brother was called home
in the full f ower of his usefulness yet
We shall know hereafter"-- for our
trust is stayed on Him who doeth all
all things well.
Eth, Tlit a copy of these resolutions be
spread as a testimony of respect
upon the minutes of this church. That
these resolutions be sent for publica
tion to the Biblical Recorder, to Chari
ty and Children, and our City daily
papers.
Done by order, and in behalf, of th9

county was entirely wiped out this
morning by fire. Seventeen houses, in
cluding every business house in the
place, and a number of residences.were

o'clock, and in the absence of any fire
department the town was at the mercy
of the flames.

had been blown open and robbed. The

found to have been blown open and

set fire to the town to cover up their
crime and create an excitement which
would afford them an opportunity to
escape. The loss is estimated at $100,
000 by the fire, but it is not yet learned

BOWIE REVEALS HIS IDENTITY.
HE IS NONE OTHER THAN ELIJAH
THE PROPHET.
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

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. If any of
