REVOLUTION IS COMING Another Prophetic Address Seventh Day Adventist Lecturer An interesting and Inspiring lecture was given by Alnsley Blair. Seventh Day Adventist evangelist last night. His topic was "The Coming World Revolution and tht World Government to Follow.' Jontlnulng his delineation of Im- nlncnt events predicted in Holy Jcrlpture, Mr. Blair sketched from Jlble prophecies the course of vorld history from Daniel's time .lown'to the second coming of Jesus Christ as King of Kings. Referring to the dream of Klnp Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, tht speaker reminded his audience oi he interpretation of this dream tlven by. the young Hebrew, pro-jhet, Daniel. Using a chart, and intenrslidcs tnrowrr cm a-screen. vlr. Blair vividly- portrayed the .ting's dream and its significance, the king had seen a great Image vlth a head of gold, breast and houlders of silver, thighs of brass .nd legs of iron. These divisions, said the speaker, represented the world kingdom of Babylon and the three world empires which should follows. The Medes and Persians over-thew Babylon In 538 B.C., during the reign- of Nebuchadnezzar' grandson, Bainlazzar. The Greciar iimies vanquished the Medes ant' Persians at the battle of Arbela icar Nineveh, in 331 B.C. Rome ptly symbolized by the legs of lror overcame Greece around 08 B.C. Ii lis dream, Mr. Blair pointed ou' ',he feet of the Image were part o: iron and part of clay, showing tha the subsequent divisions of th Roman Empire would be parti,' strong and partly weak. According to Scripture the head jf these divisions were to mlngl hemselves with the seed of mei but the prophecy declared that "they should not cleave one to an-1 onther even as iron Is not mixed with miry clay." (Daniel 7:43). The crowned heads of Europe had ful filled the prophecy In Mr. Blair's view but such efforts to unite the kingdoms of Europe had failed a? ! tragically as the efforts of Charle magne, Charles V., Louis XIV. and Napoleon. Finally Nebuchadnezzar had seen a stone cijt out without hands" hrP!,klnir the whole lmaee into , . Whiph the stone itself w to be a great mountain and .... '' . .. H. . Mied tne wuoie eartn.

Mattson jf Tacoma, may be one of the longest on record. While police In ill parts of the continent are exercising unusual vigilance In the watch, for suspects, suspicious characters being checked up on by ;he hundreds in all quarters, It was admitted by "the authorities There Saturday night that no success had yet been obtained in linking up any person definitely with the crime. J.

Federal agents have (requested and received records of Tacoma criminal trials Including those of several sexual perversion cases. This disclosure strengthens the frequent theory that the Matt- son kidnapping might have been tne act of a demented person. Dr. Mattson told newspapermen Saturday that he did not think the kidnap slaying of his boy was the act of a dernented ex-patlent. He did not believe that he had any enemies who would seek to wreak vengeance upon him in such a way. Nor did he believe that the boy hnrf hopn t.hp viM.im nf Bv0rt nrt. mlnals. "If such was the case, why viauia iney not nave cnosen a Wpnithv nprnn inoon nf mvuiri he asked.

Latest suspects to be picked up Included a Chinese-Russian at Seattle and a woman companion, a degenerate at Houston, Texas, and two men In Los Angeles, all of whom were soo nreleased after it seemed certain that none of them had anything to do with the affair.
