Hon. William E. Nason, Who Will Speak at Chautauqua

SENATOR MASON has served in both branches of the Illinois legislature and in both congress and all of the time during the past thirty-four years has been a recognized power in state and national politics. Froxo the day he entered the legislature on up to his service In the United States senate he has made one continuous fight against grafters, more modernly known as “Jackpottera.” Mr. Mason makes no claim to ora tory, yet the late Speaker Thomas B. Reed stated that the “World’s fair was located In the city of Chicago by a ten minutes’ speech made by Mason of Illinois,” and ex-Congressman Boutell, ex-minister to Switzerland, is nu thorlty for stating that the late Senator Hoar of Massachusetts said at a ban quet In Washington that the most effective speech he had heard in his twenty five years’ service In the senate was a speech made by Senator Mason. Senator Mason will appear on the Lincoln Chautauqua program in this city on the afternoon of the fourth day. The prelude will be played by the Royal Black Hussars Band. * '•Hr,

BROOKLYN TABERNACLE

< * — THE WEDDING FEAST. Matthew 22:1-14—Aug. 23.

“O Jerusalem.' Jerusalem, which killest the Prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee; how often would 1 hare gathered thy children together, as a hen gathereth htt brood under her wings, and ye would not!" —Luke IS: It RERE we have another parable of the Kingdom. Today's lesson shows that God’s promises and providences toward Israel under the Law Covenant were to prepare that nation to be God’s holy na tion and especially to provide at Christ's coming a sufficient number to constitute the elect Church. Messiah’s joint-heirs iu the Kingdom—His Bride. The parable shows that only a few were “Israelites indeed,” in whom was no guile—not enough to constitute the Kingdom class. Hence the call of this Gospel Age, selecting from the Gentiles sufficient of saintly character to be joint-heirs with the Jewish remnant in the Messianic Kingdom. The Marriage of the Lamb.

Jehovah Himself is the King who made a marriage for His Son—arranging before ttie foundation of the world that there should be joint-heirs with Christ in Ilis Kingdom. This marriage, of course, could not take place until the King's Son had come into the world and, by His obedience unto death, had made the way for His followers and for Ilis Kingdom., At the appropriate time God sent His servants to call them that were bidden to the

wedding. But they would not come. John the Baptist and his disciples did this work of calling to the attention of Israel the fact that the King’s Son was in their midst.—John 1:20:3:2$ Again, other servants were sent forth. Jesusf sent His disciples

to the Jews, saying to them that were bidden. “All things are ready. Come to the marriage.” But the people, under the guidance of the scribes and the Pharisees, the theologians of that day, made light of the Message and went—one to his farm and another to his merchandise—saying, We do not believe this Kingdom Message. Some did even worse than this. They treated these servants shamefully and slew them.

Then, as seen in another parable, Jehovah was wroth with Israel, lie sent forth armies and destroyed those murderers and burned their city. The fact that it was the Roman army under Titus which destroyed Jerusalem, A. D. To. did not make it any less Jehovah's army; for He is able to make the wrath of man praise Him and able to use whom He may please as His messengers for good or evil. Gentiles Called to the Wedding. Meantime God said to His servants. tlie Apostles, and others through them. The wedding is provided for; but the Jewish nation, which was especially invited, has not proved Worthy of the honor. Go ye. therefore, into the highways; and as many as ye shall find, bring to the marriage feast. The

world a little company, lovers of right eousness. to become eventually Christ's joint-heirs in His Kingdom. Be it noted that these ambassadors were not to intercept all in the highways, but merely to urge upon all they met in the concourse the great privilege of the open door to the wedding feast. I i Inspecting the Guests. The man found without a wedding garment in the presence of the King represents a class, not merely one individual. Today we might find just such a class, professing to be Christ’s followers, but declaring that they no longer trust in the merit of His sacrifice for sin. They have rejected Jesus as their Savior, their Redeemer, and retain Him merely as their Teacher, apparently accepting only a part of His teachings. The parable shows that this class will be rejected from the Kingdom privileges. When our minds were filled with hallucinations of the Dark Ages, we assumed that this class, represented by the man without a wedding garment, would be cast into eternal torment But now we perceive that as the guests were called out of the darkness of the world iuto the light of the wedding chamber, so the casting of one into the outer darkness would mean merely the taking from him the knowledge and joy represented by the light. Our Lord's statement. “Many are called, but few chosen.'’ does not mean that only an elect few will receive God's favor in the future. For eighteen hundred years the Gospel Call has sounded. Yet comparatively few have accepted and come into the elect condition—the Church, the Bride of Christ Thus again the Master explained the matter saying, "Fear not. Little Flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom." The Little Flhck. composed of Jews and Gentiles, willthrough faithfulness become God’s chosen people—the Bride of Christ.

Gentiles Called.

Servants did so, and the wedding was furnished with guests. The highways rep resent public concourse. The Lord's ambassadors were no longer to restrict themselves to Jews, but were to make known everywhere the fact that God Is now calling out of the

He Gives a Free Lecture, but Takes Up a Collection. A PUBLIC DUTY OVERLOOKED. Why Teach the People of Africa How to Eat Pie and the Chinese How to Eat Ice Cream and Deny a Stovepipe Hat to the Red Man? By M. QUAD. [Copyright, 1914, by Associated Literary Press] “V ADIES and Gentlemen —It is i needless for me to observe M * that this large and Intelligent audience does me proud. It was advertised that this lecture would be free, and you found the doors wide open to you. I feel it a sort of duty, however, to take up a collection. Any money so contributed will be evenly divided- Onedialf will go toward erecting a tombstone over the grave of the father-in-law of Christopher Columbus, as soon as the same can be located, and the other half will be economically expended in paying my personal expenses from town to town. As I pass the hat 1 will call your attention to the fact that if Columbus hadn’t been backed by his father-in-law he could never have set out on his voyage, and that the Said father-in-law has never had a fair showMn history. As 1 eouut up tlie proceeds of the collection, which

amounts to $1.78, 1 wish to return thanks on behalf of Columbus and ail his relations.

“My subject is the American Indian, amt tlie duty of the American white man toward him. I hope to make your duty plain to you, as I turn the light of my stereopticon on the canvas, and you behold the picture of tlie savage at home. Instead of sowing or reaping he is engaged in a war dance. Instead of broadening his mind he is clinging to old time traditions. As he dances lie yells for scalps and hollers for gore. “Who is to blame for this state of affairs? All of us. Ilad we followed the finger of, duty thirty years ago the red man of today would have been wearing plug hats and high collars, and his thirst for gore would have been washed away in mock turtle soil]) and ice cream. We see this savage engaged in a war dance, when lie might just as well be employed in compiling a family almanac or running a cider mill.

“We lay aside the picture of the war dance and substitute another. My heart aches every time I exhibit it. You see the picture of a squaw standing in front of a w igwam. Years ago she was called Blue Bell and the young men of her tribe rayed over her willowy form and fawn like glide. Had the hand of the white race been extended to her then she would have been ornamenting a drawing room. Instead of wearing an army blanket she would have draped and posed for a goddess before some great painter. "No helping hand was extended and the Blue Bell with the willowy form was left to mature into a sawed off squaw r , ( who smokes a pipe. I ask the red headed man on the end seat, third row, how lie would like to be an Indian buck in old clothes, with nothing to do but lick his squaw in the morning, kick his dogs in the afternoon, and cuss his pappooses around after dark? I ask the woman with the frozen expression over there by the post how she would like to be a squaw in a wigwam. \Ve have taught the people of Africa how to eat mince pie and we have taught the folks of''China how to devour ice cream, but we have turned our backs on the Indians under our feet and had no concern in tlieir welfare. I feel, tp speak plainly on this matter, I feel to say to the fat man with the bald head and contented look that he has been derelict in his duty and ought to be ashamed of himself. “My dear friends, I think I can detect looks of sympathy on the faces before n#>. I think I can see mental resolutions to do your duty in future. My feelings in the matter altfost oblige me to announce that another collection will be taken up as a fitting close to the meeting, but prudence bids me not to overdo a good thing. In order to prevent a stampede, in w T hlcb numbers of you might be killed or injured, the collection will be dispensed with, but as you depart for your homes think the matter over seriously and earnestly. Extend your band and it won’t take ten years before the Indian will eat wdth a fork, pull wires at a ward caucus and promote trusts and syndicates for the benefit of mankind.’'
