DICKINSON in the ; CHRIST Tfl RETURN SOON SAYS PASTOR: War Only Oge Sign of “Fullll ment of Prophesies At the People’s church last night, Pastor Harriman preached his segon sermon in the “War and Proph§cy”: series, his topic being “‘Is Jesus Ch¥is: really coming back to this world?"” A good congregation had assembled. The preacher reminded them of the interest in prophetic matters occa- sloned by the war; stated his convic- tion that while the war is not a ful- is yet at least partially fulfilling many specific prophecies, and promised to point out the most striking of these when he preaches his sermon on “Signs of the Times,” which he had to put aside last Sunday night for more pressing discussion of ‘“Anglo- Israel.” The prophecy “nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom,” he saill was being frightfully fulfilléd, also this: ‘“‘upon the earth distress of nations with per- ‘Plexity, men’s hearts failed them for fear and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth.” The preacher then addressed him- self to the theme of the evening, and answered the question in the affirm- ative: ‘“Yes, Jesus Christ is really com’n‘ back for this reason: God says so in the strongest and’ clearest ‘terms; three hundred and inore thines | it is referred to in the New Testa- ment, almost as many times as all the other great doctrines put - to- gether. Here is one text which shows that He is coming: ‘For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and the trumpet of God.' That ought to be enough. And it can’t mean death, or the de- scent of the Holy Spirit, or the de- struction of Jerusalem or any of the other things which men say His sec- ond coming is; for this text is ac- companied with the statement that statement that with His coming ‘the dead in Christ shall rise.’ No, resur- rection accompanied’ those eventl. ““And that it is to be literal and per- sonal is proved by this: ‘This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into heaven,’ words uttered by angels at His ascensi Nobody denies the lite eralness of the ascension; how can they deny the literainess of His re- turn? “But He must come back to finish the promised redemption of the world from all sin. Nothing else will meet the need. He came in grace and they spat upen Him nd despised Him. He came in ‘Weakness and they cruci= fled{Him. When He comes again He will come, in power and bring an‘was willing world to ‘His feet. ‘Wherefofe God, hath highly' exalted Him, and given Him a name that is above every name; that at the name of Jesus every knee shall bow—in heaven and earth and hell—and that every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord" That,” said the preacher with emphasis, “must come to pass. And there is no sign of its coming to pass in the days of grace: judgement must come to accomplish that. Not willingly will all confess His name. They therefore must dd it unwillingly. There is no ‘power visible to bring that to pass. .While God’s true children are sighing and crying to God, hungry to know Him better, growing better if you please, the bulk of professing Christians are in the grip of a great apostasy, of which I shall speak in another ser- mon. And as to the world, there was never so much of the tower-of: Babel spirit in the world as now; never so much vaunting of human smartness and scientific gréatness and even goodness—this in spite of the collapse of civilization which this great world ‘war has brought. One would think thers would be an end of boasting, but there is not. And this will go on until Christ shall rise and take to Himself His great power and come and use it, and ‘rule the nations with a rod of iron’ till sin has hidden its head, and a righteous reign of a thousand years—happy for those who love righteousness—be set up.” When He is to come the preacher declared that no man knows, but that it will be soon he believes. He told of the blind boy flying a kite on London bridge, and Dr. Norman McLeod asked him how he knew there was a kite up there, since he could not see to which the boy replied: “I feels the tug of it.” And the preacher asserted that aside from the “signs of the times” in the war, many are feeling the tug that an- nounces His soon return.

Kirkham in police court this morning as he administered a reprimand to khaki-clad Clifford Anderson ¢f 699 Stanley street, mem-~ ber of Co. E., First Connecticut In- fantry, and suspended judgment on breach of the peace charges preferred by Supernumerary Policeman Ernest . House. Resistance charges were nedt pressed. Anderson’s arraignment resulted from personal differences with Supernumerary House, the lat- ter in civilian clothing and off duty, on Main street about 7:30 Saturday night relative to what constitutes pro- per street behavior- House con- tended that Anderson was Jjostling people on the sidewalk, talking loud- ly 4nd not behaving correctly- “As a person with police powers,” he tes- tified this morning, “I felt it to be my duty to arrest him. Anderson denled any improper conduct, said that he was simply standing against & dullding talking informally with ;and -that Houde, without his badge or giving any in- as to_his identity, stepped up 6 him jand’made threats of arrest, wanted to know what it was all about, who House was and. why he took it upon anlf to be a censor of be- havior.” Asked by Prosecuting At- torney George W. Klett as to why he did not have witnesses, House claimed that, from either a “patriotic stand or some other unexplained cause,” no one from the large crowd that gath- ered would either help him or sive him their names as witnesses. Toot! Toot! As Anderson ignored his inquisitor and started indifferently to walk away, -‘House acted in true metropoli- tan style, seized his nearly-new po- lice whistle and made it resound alo: heavily-trav8led Main strest. It was heard by Policeman Frank R. Hahn, also in civilian clothes and off duty, who, aupposing there must be a near riot with the policeman on the beat experiencing trouble, hurried to the scene. He met Anderson moving rapidly away and .despite the latter's protestations that there was no trouble and no cause for his arrest escorted him back to the scene of the gathering crowd. Anderson made no resistance with .the exception’ of ver- bal protestation. Hahn found House with clothing disarranged and excited. He then notified Anderson - that he was under arrest. Fire Chief Robert M. Dame’s car coming alghg just then, it was used for the ort trip to police headquarters with Policeman Hahn'and Anderson as passengers Tt was hete that the comedy, part of the incident began. Appearing befofe ' Captain T. W. Grace at the booking desk, Anderon | expressedl ignorance and Policeman Hahn looked mystified when inquiry was made as to the nature of the charge.
