A. C. M. V. m was wise. "Consider how great, things he hath done for you" (v. PA). Samuel appeals to their gratitude for their great deliverance: which God had wrought be them. He bids them remem- l-er how they were brought out of Egypt. how they were led through In enemy‘s country safe to the promised land. how Jericho and the other cities were taken. how again and again he raised up judges to deliever them from the hands of their enemies. Considera- They asked him to pray for them on this occasion, but he promised to con- tinue his prayers for them and not to eense m long at he lived. 3. They asked him only to pray for them, but he pro- mined not only to pray for them. but to teach them. Though they were not willing to be under his government as a judge. he would not therefore deny them his imstruetiorrq as n prophet. and he would teach them the good and the right war." IV. He was magmuthnous. "God forbid that I should sin against the Lord in coming to pray for you" (v. 23). The people said unto Samuel, "Pray for thy servants" (v. 19). He did not send them to the king whom they had chosen when they had rejected him as their judge, but he promised more than they naked. An Matthew Henry says: "i. They lulu-d it as a favor; he promised it a: it duty and nturtles at the thought of neglecting it. It is tt sin not to pray for those under our charge, and good mvn are afraid of the guilt of omission. Ill. He was courageous. "If ye will not obey .... then shall the hand of the Lord be against you" (v. Iii). He dared to rebuke. sin. We may not resist evil, but we must warn against it. A woman had some washing done by a Chinaman and paid him less than she had promised him. He sent her this brief protest: "You have a. Bible and are a Christian Woman; is that the way to dot" A young girl, seeing a young man indulging in sinful pleasures, warned him of their evil tendencies. She did it with fear and trembling, but he said to a. friend afterward, "I Wouid not take five hun. dred dollars for the talk with Lucy." "See that your wickedness is great" (v. l7). The people had been dissatisfied with God as their sovereign and wanted a king. They were tired of God's way, so they had their own way that they might learn that God's way is best. God sometimes lets us have our own way, so that we can find out for ourselves that what he gives us or takes from us is out of his great love to us. He gave his people a king because they wanted one: but they found out that God was the only sing worth having. "Fear not" (v. 201.' Fear belongs to sin and un- 1e"a,,T.ertit, love casteth out fear" " . 4: 18). ll. He tteknowledged God. "The Lord hath set a king over you" (v. 13) In his address to the people in this chap- ter Samuel use; the words, "The Lord," tm-ntymight times (vs. 1-17, 20-25). We should acknowledge the Lord in all our pus: deliverances, our present cireum. stunt-es and our future plans. Let us any of the past, "The Lord delivered" (.ludg. 11:21); of the present; "Gra. cioun is the Lord and righteous" (Psa. 116:5), "a very present help in trouble" (Psa. 46:1); of the future, "If the Lord will, we sbisll" (Jan. 4:15).

"The king whom ye have ehosen," when he might truthfully lave said, "T he king whom ye unrighteously de. manded." Blunt speaking is seldom ne- ('eusary. It plain words of reproof be uttered they should be spoken tenderly. Henry Martyn laid down the rule that he would reprove sin only when he felt some love toward the person and hatred of the sin.

Weather conditions-The weather conditions throughout the Dominion for the past month have been gener- ally favorable for fruit. The first three weeks were exceptionally dry in the fruit districts of Ontario, but occasional showers after the 20th have prevented serious injury except that the samples ot strawberries in some cases are not so large as usual. Light frosts on the 15th did only a very slight damage. Nova Scotia and {rince Edward Island have had excep- tionally favorable weather.

Sharpe ' explained that the present mania seized ’him about five years ago. Previous to that he had been fond of dancing. drink. ing and gambling. A falling "tar struck on his, place, shaking the earth. Short- ly after he had it change of heart, both himself and his wife being converted. First they started preaching in Okla- ( honin. but becoming mixed up with some other fanatics. the outfit was placed un- der arrest for parading the streets in a nude condition. The leader was only taken after a violent struggle. He Wltrt" ,ivutenced to two Yeats' ituptGoument, while Sharpe and " “it't- were given thirty days each. On that. occaln the tuntple styled themselve‘ Adam and Eve. After their release, less violent meth- ods were followed, Sharpe confining himself to street preuchi'ng, wandering over Oklahoma and the States to the north, finally landing in Montana. There he got possession of some United States papers describing the parades of the ihmkhoborts, and judging from these de. scription! that they were fellow-suffer. em, he started across to take command, but was stopped at Lethbridge. This time he determined. to use force, and has vowed that he will bring to the Doukhohors the Christ for whom they; are searching, he himself being Christ; and his wife the Virgin Mary. Another l of the band is called David and a third Jacob. Two of the band deserted last Sunday night. Up to the present the police have taken no active steps to stop the march, but an armed guard aeeompanims them from point to point. The Government has been communicated with and more definite orders are expected to-day. In the interval the march continues, and the residents of the district give the fanatics a wide berth. Any odd-liking rig is halted at sight, or the driver covered till he pause-s. When Juries Adams was passing them yesterday, in a lumber wagon. with it high box. three rifles were held trained on it, until he was a quarter of a mile past. Afterwards the leader said that he was afraid the wagon was a police trap, and that it carried concealed con- stables after the style of the wooden horse of the Greeks at Troy. Council. lor Melville, of Alberta, also tried to pensuadc the band to leave the country. Me was allowed to talk for a time and then was ordered away. He refused to go, but. changed his mind under the urging of a heavy pistol. "If I am not Christ, I am greatly de. ceived. If I am not right, I might just as well be dead." With this utteranee, he brandisht-d his riflé, a 38-calihro Win. chester, and the other members of the band grouped themselves about him at the word, "Cume, my children."

In conversa- tion, Sharpe is usually gentle, but breaks out at times violently, almost foaming at the mouth. "I will not be taken alive," he announced yesterday. Inspector Tucker, of the R. N. W. M.
