A Sermo- Showing That God Bewurds According lo Elton and Not Accord“: lfiouporlnnilyâ€"The Disabled II er’u BatIIuâ€"llrnnlplclonn Spheres. “'ashin g.tnn Nov 3.-â€"-Dr. Talmage to-day preached his second sermon since coming to the national capital. It pos- sible the audience was even larger than last Sunday. The subject was “ The Disabled " the text selected being I. Samuel xxx. 24. ‘As his part is. that 800th down to the battle, so shall his part be that tarrieth by the stuff." REV. DR. TALMAGE SPEAKS IN BE- HALF OF HUMBLE EFFORTS. If you have never seen an army change quarters you have no idea of the amount of baggage 20 loads. 50 leads. 100 loads of baggage. David and his army were about to start on a double quick march for the recovery of their captured families from the Amalekites. So they-left by the'brook Besor their blankets. their knapsacks. their baggage and their carriages. \Vho shall be detailed to watch this stuff? There are sick soldiers, and wounded soldiers. and aged soldiers. who are not able to go on swift military expediâ€" tions, but who are able to do some work.and so they are detailed to watch the baggage. There is many a soldier Who is not strong enough to march 30 miles in u. day and then plunge into a ten hours' fight, who is able with dram sword lifted against his should- er to pace up and down as a_sentinel to keep off an enemy who might put the torch to the baggage. There are 200 of these crippled and aged and wounded soldiers detailed to watch the baggage. Some of them. I sup- pose. had bandages across the brow. and some of them had their arms in a 31mg. and some of them walked on crutches. They were not cowards shirking duty. They had (ought in many a fierce battle for their country and their God. They are now part of the time in the hospital and part of the time on garrison duty. They alâ€" most cry because they cannot go “'le the other troops to the front. W'hlle these sentinels watch the baggage.the Lord watches the sentinels. «Vi-u u yuy... -..v There is quite adifferent scene being enacted in the distance. The Amale- kites. having ravaged and ransacked and robbed whole countries are cele- brating their success in a roaring ca- rousal. Some of them are dancing on the lawn with wonderful gyration of heel and toe and some of them are examining the spoils of Victoryâ€"the finger rings and earrings. the neck- laces. the wristlets and the coffers With coroneis and carnelians and pearls and sapphires and emeralds and all the wealth of plate and jewels and decant- ers. and the silver and the gold bank- ed up on the earth in princelyprofuston. and the embroideries. and the robes. and the turbans. and the cloaks of an imperial wardrobe. The banquet had gone on until the banqueters are maudlin and weak and stupid and in- decent and loathsomely drunk. \Vhat a time it. is now for David and his men to swoop on them! So the Eng- lish lost the. battle of Bannockburn. because the night before they were in wassail rand hilmlous celebration while thn Scotch were in prayer. So .the Syrians were overthrown in their carnusal by the Israelites. So Che- dorlamer and his army were over- thrown in their carousal by Abraham and his men. 80 in our civil war more than once the battle was lost because one of the generals was drunk. Now is the time for David and his men to swoop upon those carousing Amaleâ€" kites. Some of the Amalekitees are hacked to pieces on the spot, some of them are just. able to go staggering and hit-coughing off the field, some of them crawl on camels and speed off in the distance. David and his men gather together the wardrobes. the jewels and put them upon the backs of camels and into wagons. and they gath- er together the wardrobes. the jewels had been stolen and start back toward the garrison. Yonder they come! 'ionder they come! The limping men of the garrison come out and. greet them With wild huzza. The Bible says DaV'ld saluted themâ€"that is. he asked them how they all were. “ How is your broken arm 2" ” How is your fractured Jaw?" " Has the stiffened limb been unlxmbered 5’" “ Have you had another chill?" “ Are you prettin better T’ He saluted them. 7 g But now some a very difficult thing. the distribution 0f the snails ofv1ct03'y. Drive up those laden camels now. \V ho shall have the spoils? \Vell. some selfish soul suggests that these trees- ures ought all to belong to those who had been out in active service: "We did all the fight n2 while these men staid at home in the garrison. and we ought to have all the treasures." But David looked into the worn {apes of these veterans who had staid in the arrison and he looked round and saw ow cleanly everything had been kept and he saw that. the baggage was all safe. and he knew that these wounded and crippled men would gladly enough have been at the front if they had been able. and the little general looks up from under his helmet and #38333 “No. no. let us have fair play," and} he rushes up to one of these-men and‘ he says. "Hold your hands together."; and_the hands .are held together. and‘ he fills them With silver. And he rushâ€"3 es up to another man who was sitting away back and_had no idea of getting our of the spells, and throws a Baby- lomsh garment. over him and fills hlS hand With gold. And he rushes up to anot her man: who had lost all his prop- erty in servmg God and his country years before, and he drives up some of the cattle and some of the sheep that they had brought back from .the Amalekites and he gives two or three of the cattle and three or four of t 9. sheep to this poor man. so he- shall always be fed_ and clothed. He sees_ a man so emecxated and worn and sick he needs stimulants and he gives him a. little of the wine that he brought from the Amalekites. Yonder is aman who has no appetite for the rough ra- tions of the army. and he ives him a. rare morsel from the Ama ekitish .ban- quot. and “10.200 crippled and manned and aged soldiers who tarried on gar- rise; dgty get just as_ niuch of the AAA oils of battle as any of the 200 men t at went to the front. “As hisp is that goeth down to the battle.p in‘30 shall Ahis Dart be that. tarrieth by the THE UNAPPREUIATED. VOL 11- N0 49. The impression is abroad that the Christian rewards are for those who do conspicuous service in distinguished placesâ€"great. patriots. great. preachers. great. philanthropists. But my text sets forth the idea that. there is just as much reward for the man who stays :u. home and minds his own business and who, crippled and unable to go forth and lead in great movements and in the high places of the earth. does his whole duty just where he is. Garrison duty is as important. and as remunerative as service at the front. "As his part that goeth down to _the battle. so shall his part be that tarneth by the stuff." The Earl of Kintore said to me in an English railway. ”Mr. Talmage. when you get back to America. I want you to preach asermon on the discharge of ordinary duty in ordinary places. and then send me a. copy of it." Afterward an English clergyman coming to this land brought. from the Earl of Kintore the same request. Alas that. before I got ready to do what. he asked me to do the good Earl of Kintore had (16- parted this life! But that, man. _sur- rounded by all palatial surroundings. and 1n.a distinguished sphere. felt _sym- pathetic with those who had ordinary duties to perform in ordinary places and in ordinary ways. A great. many people are discouraged when they hear the story of Moses. and of Joshua, and of David. and of Lusher, and of John Knox. and of Deborah. and of Flor- ence Nightingale. They say: “Oh. that gas all good and right for them. but Ar..- LL‘ u u..- vvu uuu .. My -V- I shall never be called to receive the law on Mount, Sinai. I shall never be called to command the sun and moon to stand still. I shall never preach .0“ Mars Hill, I shall never defy the Diet of Worms. I shall never be called to make a Queen tremble for her crimefi; I shall never preside over a hos ital. There are women who say: "If had as brilliant. a sphere as those people had, I should be as brave andjls grand. but my business is to get children Off to school and to hunt up things .‘Vhen {hey are lost, and to see that. dinner 18 ready. and to keep account of. the household expenses, and to hinder the children from bcing strangulated by‘ the WhOOping cough. and to go through alluthe annoyances and vexations .of housekeeping. Oh, my sphere is so In- finitesimal and so insignificant I am clean discouraged." \l’oman. God Places you on garrison duty. and 3'0“? reward will be just. as great as that of Florence Nightingale, who. moymg so often night. by night, with a. light in her hand through hospitals. was callcd by the wouu-led the “lady of the lamp.” Your I‘C\\‘.LI‘(1 will be just, as great as that of Mrs. Hertzog. who built and endowed theological semln- {try buildings. Your reward will be Just. as great, as that: of Hannah More. who by her excellent. books won for her admirers Garrick and Edmund Burke and-Joshua. Reynolds. Rewards are not to be given according to the amount of noise Vuu make in the world- nor even according to the amount of {100d you do. but according to whether you work to your full capacity. accord- ing to whether or not you do your duty in the sphere where God has placed you. Suppose you give to two of your children errands and they are to 5:0 off to make purchases. and to one you mve $1 and to the other you give $20. Do you reward the boy that you EMT 820 to for purchasing more with that amount. of money than the other boy urchased With Si? Of course not. If‘ ‘od give wealth or social position or‘ eloquence or 20 times the faculties to a man that he gives to the ordinary man, is he going to give to the favored man a. reward because he has more power and more influence? Oh. no. In other words, if you and I were to do our whole duty and you have 20‘ times more talent than I have, you “'1“ get no more divine reward than I will. Is God going to reward you because he Kaye you more? That would not be fair; that would not be right. These 200 men of the text who fainted by the brook Besor did their whole duty; they watched the baggage. they took care of the stuff. and they got as much of the Spoils of victory as the men who went to the front. "As his part 18 that goeth down tn the battle, so shall hls part be that tarrieth by the stuffz” There is high encouragement in this for all who havo great responsibility and little credit for what they do. You know the names 01‘ the great commer- cial houses of these cities. Do you know the names of the confidential clerksâ€"the men who have the key to the safe, the men who know the com- bination lock?

These men have awful responsibilities. and some- times. through the recklessness of an engineer. or the unfaithfulness of a switchman. it has brought to mind the faithfulness of nearly all the rest of them. Some men do not have recogni- tion of their services. They have small wages _and much complaint. I very often ride upon locomotives and I very often ask the question, as we shoot around some curve or under some ledge of rocks. " How much wages do you get ?" And I am always surprised to find how little for such vast responsi- bility.

The waves struck thrcugh the sk{lights and rushed do_wn mto .the ho d of the ship. and based agaxnst the boilers. It was an awful time. but by the blessing of God and the faith-- fulnessof the men in charge. we came out of the cyclone and we unwed at home. Each one before leaving the ship thanked Capt. Andrews. 1 do not th1nk there was a man or woman that went off that ship without thanking Cap t Andrews. and when, years alter, I heard of his death. I “as impelled to write a letter of condolence to his fam- 1ly in Liverpool. Everybody recognized the goodness, the courage, the kind- ness gof Capt. Andrews. but it occurs to me now pthat we never thanked the engineer He stood zmay down in the darkness, amid the hissing: furnaces, doing his whole duty. Nobody thank- ed the engineer, but God recognized his heroism. and his continuance, and his fidelity. and there will _be just as high reward for the engineer \1 ho worked out of sight as the captain the midst of the how ling tempest. “ As his part is that goeth down to the bat- tle. pso shall his gpart be that terrieth by the stuff. " A Christian woman was seen going along the edge of a wood every even- tide, and the neighborhood in the coun- try did not understand how a mother with so many cares and anxieties should waste so much time as to be idly sauntering out evening by even- ing. It was found out afterward that She went there to pray for her house- hold, and while there one evening she wrote that beautiful hymn, famous in all ages for cheering Christian hearts: I love to steal awhile away From every cumbering care And spend the hours of. setting day In humble, grateful prayer. Shall there be no reward for such un- pretending _ye_t everlasting service? Clear back in the country there is a. boy who wants to go to colle e and get an education. They call im a bonkworm.

One night Ed had retired to his room and there is a family conference about. him. The sisters say: “Father, I wish you would send Ed to college.

I see some of them here to-day. They sit in pews in our churches. They used to stand in pulpits. Their hair is white with the blossoms of the tree of life. Their names marked on the roll of the gen- eral assembly, or of the consoeizition, “Emeritus." They sometimes hear a text announced which brings to mind a sermon they preached__._’)0 years gigq on the same sulriject. They preached more gospel on $400 a year than some of their successors preach on $4.000. Some Sunday the old minister is in a church and near by in another pew there isa husband and wife anda row of children. And after the benediction. the lady comes up and says, "Doctor. you don't know me. do you?” “Well," he says, “ your face is familiar, but I cannot call you by name." “Why." she says, " you baptized me and you married me and you buried my father and mother and sisters." “Oh, yes." he says, "my eyesight isn’t as good as it used to be." There are in all our churchesâ€"the heroes of 182.0, the heroes of 183:3. the heroes of 1857. By the long grave trench that cuts through half a century, they have stood sounding the resurrection. They have been in more Balaklavas and have taken more Se- bastOpOIS than you ever heard of. Sometimes they get a little fretful be- cause they cannot be at the front. They hear the sound of the hatle and the 01d war horse champs his hit. But the 60.000 ministers of religion this day standing in the brunt of the fray shall have no more reward than those re- tired veterans. “ My faxhnr. my father. the chariots of Israel and the horse- men thereof.” “As his part is that goeth down to the hattle, so shall his Part he that tarrieth by the stuff."

A inventor has fashioned one and claims for it. a. speed of thirty miles an hour. -A wheelmzm is very skilful who can cover seventeen miles an hour over an ordinary road. The petroleum bicycle had a trial in the road races for motor vehicles in France, but. it. was never in the race._ The electrical bicycle weighs about sixty-four pounds. The nmtor is direct- ly under the seat. The buttery-box is the cumbersome feature. It rests on a_srnull arm. which stands out from theirame, directly over the rear wheel. The box is about thirty-six inches long and seven in depth. From the battery run two wires to the motor. A narrow leather belt connects the motor with the rear axle. Wires from the motor run along the upper bar of the frame to a. graduating switch. near the handle- bar. A lump, throwing a. reflection twenty feet. is connected with the motor, the electricity serving the two- fold purpose of light and power. ‘ a good road. This speed would be ac- coxnpanied by great danger, of course. should the rider [all off. The inventor says that he borrowed a friend's safety, fitted the invention to it, and asked the owner to give it a trial. The wheel was tried on the boulevard one morning at daybreak. The result was astonishing. The in- ventor says the speed did not exceed twenty miles an hour. The man who redo the wheel is willing,r to swear that it was nearer two hundred miles. He didn't want to try it again. The in- ventor purchased the machine from him and has since improved it. John Dripps. a nine-year-old boy re- siding in Mt.

After svhr‘ol he started home on a. run. He slipped and fell.to the sidewalk. The driver of a laundry wagon went. to his assis- tance. The boy was trying to pull the pencil from his body.

Next east of its build- ing and in part, of the same block. were two 20-foot fronts. which con- sLiLuLed the scene of the disaster. One of these, No. 45. was wholly occupied by John Davis Co., saleratus manu- facturers and dealers in grooers' supâ€" plies. while in the basement of the other were the two boilers which ex- ploded. Just above the boiler room on the first floor was The Journal mailing room. The second floor was Occupied by the Kohlhrandt Engraving Co.. and W. \V. Dunlap's agency for Rogers Typograph supplies. 0n the third and fourth floors were J. George Hilxer’s bookhindery. and the top floor was The Journal's stereo- typing room.

A despatch from Niagara Falls. Ont.. says :â€"“ There's my bed.” said an elder- ly man, a stranger. attired in a long military overcoat. to Peter Muldoon. the well-known hack driver on Monday afternoon, pointing to the whirling, seething rapids of the Niagara above the American falls. This remark was brought out by a number of haekmen soliciting the man to hire a hack. He told them that he was penniless, and had no plaoe to go. and wound up his short history by his dramatic utterance. and pointing to the wild rushing waters. The hackmen reported the matter to State Reservation Officer Jacob An- thony. who followed the man and appre- hended him. The stranger laughed. and explained his statements by saying he was just joking with the haekmen who were soliciting him. He gave his name as James Hodges. and his home as Philadelphia. where he was a member of the Fourth Battalion. He claimed to have been stopping in the city several ldays, and was registered at the Hotel Imperial. Under the representations IOffieer Anthony permitted the man to go, but kept him under surveillance. He was evrdent‘lly an old Grand Army man. as hegave ohn Barlow, the old guide, the/“Grand Army salute. and they had a short talk about the scenery and paints of interest. Hodges. or whatever his name is, sauntered out on to Bath Island brid e. Officer Anthony stood at the end of t e bridge. when. suddenly looking back. the man put one foot on the railing of the bridge and jumped over. He went down head first, with his hands extended. striking the water with a splash. The rushing waters carried his body along towards the American Falls. By aturn in the current. it was carried over to- wards Chapin Island. just above Luna Island, where it caught fast in a rock. There is little doubt that if the body could have been secured then the man could have been resuscitated. but it was deat h to anyone to venture out to the rock. There the body rests. and can be distinctly seen under the moon- light to-night.
