The Millennium.

A Cleveland man is trying to prove that the inhabitants of England and America, of the Saxon race, are descended from the ancient Israelites. He says the old prophecies are being fulfilled every day all about us, and we have only to get our eyes open to see it. He adds-that “we are living in a wonderful time.*’ That is so. Who would have thought, a short time ago, that the day would ever come in New York when a man couldn’t get a drink in a saloon on Sunday? It really looks like a forerunner of the millennium—or would if so many men didn’t get full on private bottles provided Saturday night. —Texas Siftings.
