ONLY A MONTH TO LIVE.

"The Holy Ghost and U3" Society, | who3e visit to Australia in the mysterious yacht, Coronet, made such a stir, have received advices that the end of the world is to come at 10.20 a.m. on Wednesday, September 15th. At least such is the fact according to an American journal. After making the statement and giving the precise time and date the account continues: "Rev. Frank Sandford who originated the sect and calls himself 'Elijah, The Uncrowned King,' and several other euphonious titles. says so. The Holy Ghost aM Us Society followers at Shilol; ay he ought to know, and are mnl.ijg preparations to don the pur* white robes, pass up to the hotiij tops of their colony in the sequestered Maine village a.id await t/ie dread moment. When it comei they expect to see the sky go to tmash, the earth 'busted' into smithereens, the sun tumbling somewhere, and they themselves transplanted into the realms of bliss, while all others pass into destruction. Meanwhile, I they have painted the entire tabernacle at a cost of 1,000 dol. and bought a great rug, so that the place will look nice anyway when 'Elijah' gets home from his trip to Jerusalem and other places in the yacht Coronet. Sandford sent the word home from Capetown, where he recently touched, that the world was about done doing business, and he is expected back to Shiloh within a few we-jks."
