Pastor Russell's Interpretations One lock Bible Mysteries - Lucifer by Rebellion Became Satan -How His Evil Example Was Permitted To Test the Loyalty of Holy Angels. Dayton, Ohio, February 9. -Great crowds heard Pas- tor Russell today et Memorial Hall. He spoke twice. We report his discourse on the Deluge, from the text, "The flood came and took them all away." (Matthew 24:39.) Speaking without notes, he said: I oonUnue to -day my subject of a week ago at Brook- lyn. I am confident that many of you keep in touch with my weekly dis- oourses through the newspapers. Last Sunday we considered the physical catlaea which led to the Deluge, and found them most reasonable, in full harmony with history and geology. To- t day we consider the Deluge from a different standpoint. We shall show from the Bible why God permitted the Deluge, and that He was fully justi- fied in blotting out humanity, except Noah and his family. The Pastor showed that Adam. created perfect, could have maintained that perfection by oontinued obedience to his Maker. When Satan obsessed the serpent and guided it to eat the forbidden fruit, he produced a temp- tation. Eve saw that the serpent was not poisoned by the fruit, but that it was the wisest of the animals. She reasoned that increased wisdom would make her husband and hersell like gods.. Only the Divine command stood be- tween her and the highest ideals. She partook of the fruit and recommended it to Adam. He knew that death would surely follow disobedience; but he preferred to die rather than be sepa- rated from Eve. Disobedience led to expulsion from Edon, and the gradual execution of the sentence, "Dying, thou shalt die." Adam died within the thousand -year Day in which he ate -nine hundred and thirty years old. His race in- herit his dying tendencies. Humanity is under the curse of death, said the Pastor. Whatever, therefore. cuts hu- man life short is no injustice to man- kind; for whatever life is enjoyed is thus more than it has title to. Hence the Deluge was merely a quick means of executing the death sentence im- posed sixteen centuries before. JEALOUS MAN'S CRIME miaow Reilly o Hamilton Shot His Wife and Pleaded Guilty A brick cottage at 48 Bay Street Hamilton, oocupied by Mrs. A. sy, was the scene of a murder on nrsday evening, when Thomas Reilly, a laborer who boarded on Charlton Avenue, entered the house and, pulling a revolver, shot his wife 'Mabel, who was at the time sitting 6n an armchair not far from a sofa on which Sanford Durfey, e -n of the( woman of the house, was lying. Young Durfey succeeded In holding Reilly till the police arrived. The woman died within ten minutes. Reilly declared It was his intention to have also killed rturtey. The Reilly, had been living apart for two years and the crime 1s supposed to have been inspired by jealousy on the part of the husband, who pleaded guilty to a charge of murder the next , morning to police court, without a sign of emotion. During the hearing Dur - Rey admitted hating lived with Mrs. Redly as husband and wife, 'in Toronto ter a year. He repeated remarks made by the murderer atter committing the crime. to the effect that "1 said I would set her and I did get her." KR. ASQUITH ON FOOD TAX. Believes Over-8eas Dominions Would Not Enter Agreement. Premier Asquith addressed a meet, ing of his constituents of East Fife lost Wednesday night and in the course of his speech dealt with the rvioent speeches of Bonar Law and Aus- ten Chamberlain on food taxation. He bad failed to understand, he Raid. why to burden of the responsibility was to be thrown upon the over -seas Do- minions. He did not believe the Dominions would consent for one moment to en- ter into such a position. H3 had re- ceived a 'remarkable document" from the Manitoba Grain -Growers' Associ- ation. signed by the President wno de - blared that the association was op- posed to any preferential tariff scheme that would give western grain growers • higher price for their grain at the expense of the British workman. in oonoluding, Mr. Asquith said the relations between tha mother country and the great Dominions have never been more intimate and, affectionate. "In the creation of the South African tlnton, upon the granting of responsible government to the Transvaal we see the triumph of Liberal principles and Liberal policy and throughout the Em- pire tears is everywhere growing up a resolve for closer co-operation In the great and common task of Imperial de fence."

Tbendore Rnnsevelt and Wm H Taft from again seeking election. was ap- proved by the United States Senate ea Saturday by the narrow 'majority of sea vote The Deluge a Deliverance. Pastor Russell proceeded to show that according to the Bible the Deluge was a blessing in disguise. Mankind had gotten into slavery, and would have been wiped cut by a new race, most peculiarly intruded upon human- ity. The Bible states that this race consisted exclusively of male=, propa- gated by the human female. These were giants, "men of renown." The fallen race, he continue.l, were unable to cope with the superior strength of the intruders. Robbed of their wives and daughters, and corn - Palled to drudge for their new masters, mankind found life a burden. The new race was vicious, brutal, im- moral. The Bible declares, "The earth was filled with violence." Noah, how- ever, was of pure Adamic stock -"per- fect in his generations." See (:eneeie 6:4-11. Whence the Race of Giants. The Pastor declared that we have not studied the Bible carefully enough. Th origin of the giants is clearly told there. Satan, a glorious angel, de- flected to sin because of ambition, thought to establish a separate em- pire on earth. If be could become master of the first pair, their children would be his •abject•. When Satan perceived humanity growing weaker under the curse, he formulated a new plan. To the angels permission had been given to help humanity. These possessed the power 1e. materialize. Satan suggested the legating of a new race, with human mothers. To these, the angels could impart their own virility. The Pastor then showed that the children of this illicit union were giant•, renowned at a time when man- kind rare:y r-a,h.vl maturity tastier than a century. He quoted Genesis 6.4 in proof of his : ssertions. These hes- tial giants filled the earth with vio- lence, oppressing and enslavne, Adam's posterity. Hope For the Antediluvians. Pastor Russell painted one that these giants cannot he included in the re. demptive work of Jesus, who died only for Adam's posterity. (I Corinth- ians 15:22 1 The 'antediluvians of Adam's rare have the same hope of a resurrection that the remainder of mankind have. This meats, he Raid, a hope of Restitution, to the perfec- tion lost in Eden. This hope rets on Ood'a promise that all the families of the earth shall he hlesemi in Abraham's Seed.

Dman Silt, -1 was delighted with whoa you had to say on Use Hydro- 'floc-Uric ydro- s1ec c bylaw in your paper. It outdo nie tel hopeful that It might snake some impression on the ratepayer. of Ooderieh, but on bearing of the result of Um vote taken It did oot surprise me much, se I know that it has bee* the way of doing business in Oodaricb -voting for bylaws without taking tiros to give them proper oonsideea- Unn. or probably listening to sons* promoter, schemer, of loe-oesker or grafter. 11 d the Hydro -electric people put the rate per horsepower on • fiat rate, so as to give Goderich the moue rate as that of Welland, then it would, have been to the credit of the Gude- rich people if they had voted unans- wuusly for the bylaw; but wben Godeiich has to pay aoout three times es wucb per horsepower as Welland it seems to me that the ratepayers have barred Goderich from getting rte share of the best factories, which will be sure to locate at Welland or Whet - ever they canet cheap power. I beard the Hun. Adam kleck say al tiudertch that it would not wet the people of Goderiob more than $40 or Ira per horsepower end that he got nothing out Of it and that he was give tog his urue and service free. It sounded nice, but to me it mewed smooth and slippery and intended for a purpose; and if the truth were known we might see a well -thought- out and planned scheme to accowplun their purpose. I love Goderich. It is a beautiful ramie in summer, and all right for a willionaite to live in under the present Conditions: but as for me i halt to get out. While I was there 1 spent con- siderable time sketching and estimat- ing the coot of different kinds and styles of boil/mu; but 1 tailed to plate OLIO that 1 could build there for sale or rent to make it pay. Seeing in the proms that Edmonton bad the single tax system -the very tbing that 1 had been advocating for Lk long as 1 can remember -1 mane up my mod to go there and cast my lot with the people who thought the same ae I did; rod 1 am very glad that I have done eo. The way that the city businese is carried on here suits me tine. They haven't given to a private company one branch of the city's re- quirements, such as power, light, water, 'phones. electric railways. esu. ; the city owns and controls them all, and every department has been pay- ing and some of them extra well. it is from the revenue of the ditlereot departments that the city gets the muney to carry on the improvements at the rapid speed it is doing. 1 have built three houses here and I don't bave to pay: any taxes on them - only have to pay eighteen mills on the dollar on land only. It would nave paid thoee 481 ratepayers who voted for the Hydro -electric bylaw if they had taken a trip out here to Edmon- ton and got a lesson oil how to carry on city business, so as to make it prosperous and make everyone feel at home and anxious to invest their money without being taxed beyond reason. 1 would not think for a mom- ent of going back to Goderich to live under the present state of maitre. Wby, the town has not one source from which it gets a revenue except from taxation. I 'eel very sorry that such is the condition of Goderich, and my heats aches for those retired farmers who are there, some of them well advanced in yeam with a limited amount of means, barely enough to get the comforts of life. and what they have they have stood all kinds of bardsbips to obtain. They wanted to make an honest living and get a little past to keep them in their old age, so as not to become a burden en their friends or the towii ; then for the privilege to live in the town they have to pay a tax of 25 or :iii mills un the dollar for assessable property, which includes improvements. To me this seem(' outrageous. If those farmers were to leave Goderich, which is bur- dened a ith taxes and naaiga of relief but still going deeper -if such should become the case. 1 doubt very much if Goderich could get a line of credit or be able to sell a debenture.
