PAGE TWO ; f ? ? THE"OLD GRAY"AN .j. ? ? ;v '''"W A.Midnight Age of the World de I he It appears to me that from the list of crimes that are being committed th daily and from persons aceusell the th world is witnessing one of the dark-, hf est periods.in the history of chriS^or tianity. Chicago, Illinois has given of birth to a group of gangsters that wl - ----- art committing brutal assassinations, 22 by the wholesale almost every day in ni - that -metrbpolitan city. Respectable wl citizens such as newspaper reporters co are mmdeied wilTioul nit'iry by such to ?' simular are being perpetrated in al- al most every state in the Union. A sur- w] prise equally as alarming is, ,the class be of individuals apprehended and ac-' ly cused of these attrocities Sometime ago one Mr. Picrson, -nf-Chicaga," ~a~re high class churchman and citizen who. f0 was an auditor-for the Baptist deno-'ev mination Was fpolpd ?ff ti-nin nm) murdered on his return frotn Nash- m ^^^ville^TennesseeU^rjgh?Jli?-iii-Cliica_-Jii go. . lney say it was because his in- re yestigatlOn had revealed somo cfovf- ? ling irregularities in the financial af- gi fairs in certain departments of his i church.

Merchants tl are being murdered in their storeVs' innocent} perstons called from ?their , beds" and shot down in their doors. ~ Others ^hot to death at their tables feasting with their^families.
