The Great Nations of To-Day

BY ALONZO T. JONES
The author in this volume treats the Great Nations of To-Day from a prophetical and historical standpoint, which can not fail to arrest the attention and demand the careful consideration of every candid thinker. He also portrays the results of the great world Powers congregating their armies in the Orient. The following are a few of the many subjects considered in the volume; they are of the utmost importance to all:—
The Moral Condition of the Roman Empire,
The Modern Nations of Western Europe,
The Eastern Question — Sounding of the Seventh Trumpet — The Third Woe,
The Threefold Message: What Is It as to Babylon and the Daughters?
The Exaltation of Lawlessness;
“The Hour of His Judgment Is Come.”
The book contains 257 pages; 23 chapters; nine full-page illustrations; one five-color map, and five maps showing the territory covered by the various world Powers. All the maps and illustrations were made expressly for this publication. The author cites more than 25 different historical authorities.

The Seven Last Plagues: Words of Truth Series No. 29

That most excellent series of articles which appeared in the REVIEW, entitled THE SEVEN LAST PLAGUES, by Prof. B. G. Wilkinson, has been published as

WORDS OF TRUTH SERIES, NO. 29.

The seven last plagues are about to fall, and upon us who know this rests the responsibility of warning the world.
The Seven Last Plagues warns, exhorts, and entreats all to prepare for the time when the Lord will pour out his vials of wrath, unmixed with mercy, and should be scattered by the thousand.

REDUCED RATES TO THE GENERAL CONFERENCE

REDUCED rates have been secured for all who desire to come to Battle Creek to attend the General Conference, as follows: In the Central Passenger Association (the territory of which includes the States of Illinois [except the northwestern portion], Indiana, Ohio, Lower Peninsula of Michigan, southern Ontario from Port Huron to Toronto, and western New York and Pennsylvania on a line west of and including Buffalo, Salamanca, Kinzua, Oil City, and Pittsburg) ironclad signature form of tickets will be sold to Battle Creek, at one fare for the round trip, March 31 and April 1 and 2, with final return limit, April 25.
Any person in the territory described can go to any railway station, on the dates mentioned, and secure a round-trip ticket to Battle Creek, at one full fare. No certificate is necessary to secure these rates. The only requirement is for the person to present himself at the railway station with money in hand, and call for a round-trip ticket to Battle Creek, of the form already described, and the rates will be secured all right.
In regard to rates in the Western Passenger Association, we have no further definite instruction than what was published last week. We are definitely informed, however, that leading lines of the association are working for one fare for the round trip. Those purchasing tickets will need to inquire of their station agent whether he has received advice to that effect or not. The proposition that the association is working on is as follows:—
“Rate.— One regular first-class normal tariff (not temporarily reduced) fare from points in association territory east of and including Colorado common points and Cheyenne, Wyo., to Battle Creek, Mich., and return.
“Dates of Sale.— Tickets to be sold from points east of the eastern State line of Colorado on March 31 and April 1, and from points in Colorado east of and including Colorado common points, and from Cheyenne, Wyo., on March 30 and 31. The sale of tickets must, however, be so regulated that passengers will not reach our eastern gateways later than April 2, in accordance with requirements of Central Passenger Association lines.
“Limit of Tickets.— Tickets to be good for return, leaving Battle Creek, to and including April 10, except that by depositing same with the agent of the terminal line immediately upon passenger’s arrival at Battle Creek, return limit may be extended up to and including April 25, 1901. All tickets to be limited to continuous passage in each direction, going trip to commence day of sale, and return trip date of execution.”
If the preceding proposition is adopted by the association, the rates will be one fare for the round trip; if rejected, they have already promised rates of one and one-third fare for the round trip, on the certificate plan.
The rate of one and one-third fare has been named for the territory in the Southeastern Passenger Association, which is south of the Ohio River. Every person purchasing a full-fare ticket to Battle Creek, March 31 to April 3, will ask the agent for a standard form of certificate, which, when signed by me on presentation in Battle Creek, will entitle the holder to purchase return ticket at one-third fare not later than April 25. This reduction is on condition that there is a total of one hundred persons from the territory of these two associations who have bought tickets at full rate coming, and hold certificates described above. “No refund of fare can be expected because of failure to secure such certificates.” Each person desiring to come to the Conference should see his local railway agent, and obtain definite instruction regarding rates, etc.
We advise our brethren outside of the territory of the Central Passenger Association to purchase tickets to boundary points of that association (unless the one-fare plan is made effective everywhere), and then purchase round-trip tickets from there to Battle Creek, as that will be cheaper for them, even better than clergy rates. For instance, the round-trip rate from Chicago to Battle Creek will be $4.15, while ministerial rates are $5, plus fifty cents, fees for securing permits for those outside of the territory of the Central Passenger Association.

Cuban Convention Rejects Congressional Act on Foreign Relations

THE committee on foreign relations, of the Cuban Constitutional Convention, have unanimously agreed to reject the act of the Congress of the United States, which we reported week before last. Much is involved in this.

NEXT WEEK

will be begun the study of the Second Commandment. In this study will be made plain the idolatry of the use of images, and how image worship was established as a part of Catholic faith. Do not miss these studies.

NOTICE!

The Committee on Entertainment for the General Conference have been putting forth earnest efforts to provide accommodations for all who might apply; but at this late date we learn that many are coming for whom no accommodations have been secured, and in order that no one may feel disappointed after his arrival, we wish to state that the best and most available places have been taken, and those who come from this time on will necessarily have to arrange for their own accommodations at public places or in families not of our faith. The seating capacity of the large Tabernacle will be taxed to its utmost, and many will be unable to enjoy the meetings because of this congested condition. If the Committee could arrange for every one, they would esteem it a privilege to do so, but this does not seem probable at this late date.
J. W. COLLIE, Chairman Committee on Entertainment.

NOTICE!

In harmony with Article V, Section 1, of the General Conference Constitution, notice is hereby given that the thirty-fourth session of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists will be held at Battle Creek, Mich., U. S. A., April 2-23, 1901. The meetings will be held in the Seventh-day Adventist Tabernacle, beginning Tuesday, April 2, at 9 A. M. The membership of the Conference is defined in Article III of the Constitution.
G. A. IRWIN, Pres. Gen. Conf.
