There was 019,)0,915:5 cash in the Treasury, including $271 ,32tf743 in standard silver dollars. The total assets of the Government are placed at $726,476,667.53 and its present liabilities at $644,600,043 31, leaving a balance of ?80 ,876,624. 22 on - the right side of the account.

Junos Cooesy. Chairman of the

terstate Commerce Commission, announced net long ago that the time for leniency with law-breaking railroad officials had passed, and that thence

forth the penalties incurred would be inflicted. As there had not been a single case of punishment since the Interstate Law was enacted, though the infractions were numerous, this indicated that a new order of things was to be instituted. It would seem now that the matter is about to be , tested. It has bean ascertained that officials both on the Milwaukee and St. Paul and the Chicago and Northwestern roads have been granting favors to a certain coal merchant, who by these means has greatly enriched himself. The reve lationis said to be a complete one, and as large " transactions are involved the affair is tooimportant to be covered up.

Of this number 47,147 were males and 39,849 females. Under 15 years of age there were 10,682 males and 19,299 : females: 15 and under 40 yearn of acre.

local musicians. Many eminent soloists

have also been engaged,foremost among

whom are Miss Emma Jueh, Signor

Jules Perotti, and H err E mil Fischer,

and others of almost equal note. Indiana

talent will be represented by Miss Mar

INBIANAPOUS notes. It - TFhe new trustees of the Central Hospital for the Insane held their first business meeting Thursday afternoon. It occurred at the hospital, and was altendr ed by all the members of the board. The first glance at the accounts of the old board showed that there was an immense amount of work' to be done. President Carson decided that as this old trustees had retired under suspicion of wrong doing, it was the duty of their successors to re-audit all the unpaid accounts, extending back over several i months. That was immediately begun, and with the assistance of an attorney the trustees thus engaged spent the entire afternoon. President Carson when asked what the unpaid amounts would aggregate, said: "I. think the amount wOI not fall short of $70,000: The last maintenance money Mr. Gapen drew from the State treasury was for March, but at that time there were

many unpaid bills that came down from the--preceding months. Bills of this - character ran back into December, and there are many for January, February ana March. We intend to carefully examine all of them and be certain the are correct." "i Governor Hovey Thursday took the initial step toward removing the persons who he believes are illegally holding office under acts of the recent General Assembly. As a betrinning he appointed Prof. John Collet Chief of the Bureau of : Statistics and Natural Science, to take the place oi Professor 8. S. Gorby, who was elected to the position bv the General Assembly. The appointment,made on the ground that the Legislature did not have the i ewer to elect the officer, is for the purpose ot bringing the (question in to the courts. Three weeks ago, after the Insane Hospital case had been decided, ProfessorGoroy called on the Governor and asked fox his commission. His request was refused, and the Governor then told him he h ad better bring suit immediately to establish any right he might have to a commission. Other appointees of the Legislature who had not received their commission were also requested to enter suit, and one of those claingtqjact as-tmatees Jor.the iiistitutionfor the Biind did "so. Prof.

Gorby refused to begin any action, and Thursday the Governor, having reason to believe that suit was not to be brought; decided to bring the controversy to an end by appointing a successor to the Professor. Prof. Collett, who was State Geologist under Gov. Porter, accepteo the position. Thursday his commission was made put and signed by the Governor, He received it Friday morning, and after qualifying demanded .possession of the office from Prof. Gorby. The appointment of Professor Collett, of course, means that the courts will be at once called on to decide who is the legal incumbent of the office. Governor Hoyey, Monday, exercised executive clemency in the following eases: William Adams, of Grant county; was sentenced to. five years in the peni

tentiary for rape; He has served three years, and now comes the prosecuting witness, the woman in the case, and swears Adams is innocent. Her statement is backed by a petition containing the signatures of several hundred citizens and officers of Grant county, including the Judge and . jury which tried him. He is. uncosditionaUy pardoned. Seven years ago Charles Richards, of Perry county, hct and killed a desperado who cams across the Ohio from Kentucky with the expressed intention of "cleaning out" the settlement. Richards was sentenced for twenty-one years

&ING SOLOMON'S MINES. BY H. RIPER HAGGARD. CHAPTER XIX. iOKOSi'8 FAIlEWELt, . Ten days frdm thiit eventful morhing found ub once more in our old quarters at Loo; and, strange to say, but little the worse for our terrible experience, except that mv stubbly hair came out of that cave about three shades grayer than it w ent in, and that Good never was quite the same after Foulata'o death, which seemed to move him greatly, lam bound to eajr that looking at the thing from the point Of view of ah oldish man of the world, I consider her removal was a fortunate occurrence since, otherwise, complications would have been sure to ensue. The poor creature was no ordinary native girl, but a person of great. I had almost said stately, beauty, and of considerable refinement of mind, Bufcno amount of beauty .or refinement could have made an entanglement between Good and. herself,-a desirable occurrence; for, ., as she herself put it,

"Can the sun mate, with, the darkness, or the white with the black?" I need hardly state t hat we never again penetrated into Solomon's treasure chamber. Alter we bad recovered from our fatigues, a process which took us forty-eight hours, we decended into the great pit in the hope of finding the hole by which we had crept out of the mountain, but with no success. To begin with rain had fallen, and obliterated our spoor; and what is more, the sides of the vast pit were full of ant bear and other holes. It was impossible to say to which of these We owed our salvation, We also, oh the. day before we started., back to Loo made a further examination of the wonders of the stalactite Cave,., and, drawn by a kind of restless feeling, eVeh penetrated once indre into the Chamber of the Death; and passing beneath the ?pear Ot the white Death, gazed, with sensations which it would be quite impossible for me to describe, at the mass of rock which had shut us off from escape, thinking, the while, of the priceless, treasures beyond, of the mysterious old hag whose flattened fragments lay crushed beneath it, and of the fair girl of whose tomb it was the portal. I say gazed at the "rock," ior examine as we would, we could-find no traces of the join of the sliding door; Uor, indeed, could we hit upon the secret now utterly lost, that worked it, though we tried for ati hour or more. Jt was certainly a marvelous bit of mechanism, characteristic, in its massive and. yet inscrutable . simplicity, of the minds which produced it: anal doubt if the world has such another to show. At last wo gave it up in disgust, though if the mass had suddenly risen before our eyes, I doubt if we would have screwed tip courage to step over Gagool's mangled remains, and . once more enter the treasure ahamber, even in the sure and certain hope of unlimited diamonds. And yet I could have cried at the idea of leaving all that treasure, the biggest treasure probably that has ever in the world's history been accumulated in one spot. But there was no help for it. Only dynamite could force its way through five feet of solid rock. And so we left it. Perhaps, in some remote, unborn century, a more fortunate explorer may hit upon the 'Open Sesame" and flood the world with gems. Butp mvself, I doubt it. Somehow, I seem to

feel that the millions of pounds' worth of gems that lie in the three stone coffers will never Bhine round, the neck of an earthly beauty. They and Foulata's bones will keep cold company till the end of all things. With a sigh of disappointment we made our way back, and next day st arted for Loo. And yet it was really very nngreateful of us to be disappointed; for, as the Teader will . remember, I had, by a lucky thought, taken the precaution to fill the pockets of my old shooting coat with gems before we left our , prisonhouse, ' A good many of these fell out in the course of our roll down the side of the pit, including most of the big ones, which I had crammed in. on the top. But, cpmparativelv speaking, an enormous quantity still remained, including eighteen large stones . ranging from about one hundred to thirty carats in weight. My old shooting coat still held enough treasure to make us all, if not millionaires at least exceedingly wealthy men, and yet to seep enough, stones each to make the three finest sets of gems in Europe. So we had not done so.badly On arriving at Loo, we were most cordially received by Ignosi, whom we founa well, and busily engaged in consolidating his. power, and reorganizing the regiments which had suffered most in. the great struggle with Twala, He listened with breathless interest to our wonderful story; but when we told bim of old - Gagool's frightfnl end he grew thoughtful. "Come hither," he called, to a very old Induna councilor), who was sitting with others in a circle round the king, but out of ear-shot. The old man rose,

approached, saluted, and seated himself.

Thou art old," said ignosi, "Ay, my lord the king!" . , "Teli me, when thou wast little, didst thou know Gagacola the witch-doc-

kressr

"Ay, my lord the king!' ,. .... "How was she then young, like

thee?"

"Not so, my lord the king! She was

even as now; old ana cried, very ugly, and full of wickedness.'.

"She is no more, she is dead." "8o, O kingl then is a curse taken from the land," "Go!" ...... ' .... .... "Koom! I eo, black puppy, who tore

out the old dog's throat. Koom!"

"re see, my brothers," said Ignosi. 4this was a strange woman, and I rejoice that she is dead. She would have let ve

die in the dark place, and mayhap after

ward sne nad lound a way to slay me as

she found a way to slay my father, and set up Twala, whom her heart loved in

nm piace. iso w eo on.witn tne tale:

surely there never was the like!"

After I had narrated all the story of

our escape, I, as. we. had agreed between

ourselves that. I 6hould, took the oppor-

lunity to aaoress ignosi as to our departure from Kukuanaland.

"And now. Ignosi, the time has come

for us to bid thee farewell, and start to

seek once more our own land. Behold,

fgnosi, with us thou earnest. a. servant.

and new we leave thee a mighty king.

II thou art grateful to us, remember to do even as thou didst promise: to rule

justly, to rerpect the law, and to put

none to death without a cause. So shalt thou prosper. To-morrow, at break if

day. ignosi. wilt thou give us an - escort

who shall lead us across the mountains?

Is it not so, 0 king?"

ignosi covered his face with his

hands ..for awhile before answering. ,,

"My heart is sore," he said, at last:

"your words split my heart in twain.

wnat nave I done to ye, Jncubu.

Macumazahn, and Bougwan, that ye should leave me desolate? Ye who

Btood by me in rebellion and battle, will ye leave me in the day of peace and

more that l can give, that will X give ye." .

"Nay. fgnosi, we want not these

things," I answered: "wo would Beek our

own place."

"wow do 1 perceive, said Ignosi, bit-

erly, and with flashing eves, "that it is

the bright stones that yo love more than me, your friend. Ye have the stones:

now would ye go to Natal and across the

moving black water and sell them, and

be rich, as it is the desire oi a white

man's heart to.be. Cursed for your sake be the siones, and cursed he who seeks them. Death shall it be to him who sets foot in the place of death to seek them. I haue spoken, white men; ye can go." I laid my hand Upon his . arm. "Ignosi," 1 naid. "tell us, when thou didst wander :ii Zululand. and among the white men in Natal, did not thine heart turn to the land thy mother told thee of; thy native land, where thou didst see the light, and play wben thou wast little, the land where thy p lace was?" "It was even so, Macumazahn." "Then thus does our hearts turn to our land end to our own place. Then came a pause, ...When Ignosi broke it, is; was in a different Voice. , "I do perceive that thy words are now as ever, wise and full of reason. Macumazan; that which flies in the air loves not to run alcr g the ground; the white map loves not to live on the level of the black. Well, ye must go, and leave my heart sore, becauue ye will be aa dead to me, since from where ye will be no tidings can come to me. "But listen, and let: all the white men know mv wcrd8. No other white man shall cros3 the mountains, even if any may livo to come so far, I will see no traders with tbeir guns and rami My people shall tight with the spear, and drink water like their fore-' fathers before them, j Will have,. no prayi:ag-men to put fear of death into men'fi hearts, to stir them up againsj the king, and make a path for the white men who follow to run on. If a white man comes to my gates I will send him back; if a hundred come I will push them back; if an army comes I will make war . on t t era i th all my stren gth, and they shall :iot prevail against me. None shall ever .come for the shining stones no, not s.n army, for it they come I will send a regiment and fill tin the pit, at;d break down the White columns in the eaves and rll them with rocks, sp that none can ce ine even to that door of which ye speak, and whereof the wey to move it is lest.

Next day at dawn we left Loo, escort

ed by our om menu lniadoos, wno was

heart-broken, at oui departure, and regiment of Buffaloes. Early as hour was, all the main streets of town was lined with, multitudes of

pie, who gave us.. tha royal salute as we passed at the head of the regiment, while the women blessed us as having rid the land of Twala, throwing flowers before: us as we went It really was very affecting; and not th a sort of thing one is accustomed to meet with from natives. One very ludicrous incident occurred, however, which I rather welcomed as it gave us something to laugh at. Just; before we get 'to the confines of the town a pretty vocng girl, with some beautiful lilies in her hand, came running forward and piesented them to Good (somehow they ill seemed to like Good; I think his eyeglass and solitary whisker gave him . fic titious value), and then add she had ft boon to ask. "Speak on." "Let my lord show his servant his beautiful white kge, : that his servant may kok on them, an I remember them all her days, and tell of them to her children; his servant has traveled four days' journey to see them, for the fame of them has gone throughout the land." "I'll be hanged i.f I do," said Good, excitedly "Coiae, come, my dear fellew," said Sir Henry, "you cian't refuse to oblige a lady. " "1 won't" said Good, obstinatelri ."H in posi tively indecent" However, in the end he consented to draw up his trousers to the knee, amidst dotes oi rapturous . admiration from all tllte women present, especially the grati fi-bd young lady, and in this guise he had tj walk till we got clear ot the town. 'Good's legs will, 1 fear, never be so greatly admired asrain. Of his melting t:eth, find even of his ''transparent eye" they wearied more or; less, but of his legs, never. As we traveled 3'nfadoos told ub that tJiere was another pass over the mountains to the north of the one followed by Solomon's grea t road, or rather that there was a place where it was possible

to climb down the wall of a cliff that separated Kuknan aland from the desert, and was broken by the towering shapes

of She.ba s Breasts. It appeared, too, that rather more than two years previously a party of Kukuana hunters had descended this path into the desert in search of ostriches. - whose ...plumes were much prized among them for war head-dresseB, and, that in the course o: their hunt they had been led far from the mountains, and were much troubled by thirst. See ing, however, trees on the horizon, they made toward t htm, and discovered a large and fertile oasis of miles in extent, and pient'ulU watered. It was bv way of this oasis "that tie suggested that we should return, and the idea seemed to us a good one, as it appeared that we should escape the rigors of the mountain pass, and as some of the hunters were in attendance to guide us to the oasis, from which, they stated, they could perceive more fertile spots far away in the desert. Traveling easily, on the night of the fourth day's journey we found ourselves

once more on thei crest of the mountains that separate Kukuanaland from the desert, which rolled away in sandy billows at our fee', and about twentyfive, miles to the north of Sheba'e BreaQts. At dawn on the following day, wo were led to the commencement of a precipitous descent, by which, we were to descend the precipice, and gain the desert two thousand and more feet below. Here we. bade farewell to that true friend and ptardy old warrior, Infadoos, who solemnly wiahed all good upon us, and nearly wept, with grief. "Never, my lords." he said, "shall mine old eyes see the like ot ye again. Ah! Hge way that Incubu cut n is men down in the rattle! Ah! for the sight ot that stroke with which he swept ott mv. brother Tala' head! It was beautiful beautiful! 1 may never bor e to see such another, except perchance in happy dreams." ..We were very orry to part from him, indeed, Good was eo moved that he gave him as a iiouvenir what do you

think? an eyeglass. (Afterward we discovered that it was a spare one.) Infadoos was delighted, foreseeing that the possession of such an article would enormously increase his prestige, and after several vain attempts actually succeeded in screwing it into his own eye. Any thing more incongruous t han the old warrior looked with an eyeglass I hover flaw. Eyeglasses don't go well with leopard-skin cloaks and black ostrich plumes. Then, having seen that our .guides were well laden with water and provisions, and having received a thundering farewell salute from the Buffaloes, we wrung the old warrior's hand, and began our downward climb. A very arduous business it proved to be, but somehow that evening we found ourselves at the bottom without accident "Ik you kndw," said Sir Henry that ng'ght-j as we sat by'our fire and gazed up at the beetling cliffs above Us, "I think that there are tforse places than Kukuanaland in the world, and that I have spent unhappier times than the last month or two, though I have never spent such queer ones. Eh! you fellows?" "I almost wish I were back," said Good, with asiah. . . As. for myself.I reflected that all's well that ends well; but in the course of a long life of shaves, I never had such shaves as those I had recently experienced. 1?he thought of that battle still makes me feel cold all over, and as for our experience in the treasure chamber! Next morning we started on d toilsome march across the desert, having with us a good supply of water carried by our five guides, and camped that night in the open, starting again at dawn on the morrow. By midday of the third day's journey we could see the. trees of the oasis of which the guides spoke, and by an hour before sundown we were once more walking upon grass and listening to the sound of running water. CHAPTER XX. FOUND.

I come to perhaps the

thing that happened to

And now

strangest

us in all that strange business, and one

which shows how wonderfully things are brought about. .. I was walking quietly along, some way in front of the other two, down the bankB of the stream, which ran from the osis till it ..was swallowed up in the hungry desert sands, when I suddenly stopped and rubbed my eyes, as well i might. There, not twenty yards in front, placed in a charming situation, under the shade of a species of fig-tree, and facing to the stream, was a cozy hut built more or lees on the Kafir principle of grass and withes, only with a full length door iussead of a bee-hole. "What the dickens," said I to myself, "can a hut be .doing here?" Even as I said it, the door of the hut opened, and there limped out of it a

white man clothed in skins, and with enormouB black bfard. I thought that I must have got a touch of the sun. It was impossible. No hunter ever came to such a place as this. Certainly no hunter would ever settle in it I stared and stared, and so did the other man, and just at that juncture Sir Henry and Good came up. "Look here, you fellows," I said "is that a whitoman, or am I mad?" Sir Henry looked, and Good looked, and then all of a sudden the lame white man with the black beard gave a cry, and came hobbling toward us. When he got close, he fell down in a sort of faint. . WUh a spring Sir Henry was by his side. "Great Powers!" he cried, "it iB my brother George!"

At the sound of. tne disturbance, another figure, also clad in skins, emerged from the hut, with a gun in his, and came running toward us. On seeing me he too. gave a crv-. "Macumazann." he halloed, "don't you know me, Baas? I'm Jim the hunter. I lost the note you gave me to give to the Baas, and we have been here nearly two years." And the fellow fell a.t: my feet, and rolled over and over, wjeping for "You careless scoundrel!" I said; "you ought to be well hided." Meanwhile the man with the black beard had recovered and got up, and he and Sir Henry were pump-handling away at each.other, apparently without a word to say. But whatever they had quarreled about in the past (J suspect it was a lady, though I never asked), it was evidently forgotten now. "My dear old fellow," burst out Sir Henry at last, "I thought that you were dead. I have been over Solomon's Mountains to find you, and now I come across you perched in the desert, like an old Aasvogei (vulture)." , "T tried to go over Solomon's Mountains nearly two years ago," was the answer, spoken in the hesitating voice of a man who has had little recent opportunity of using his tongue, "but when I got here, a bowlder fell on my leg and crushed it, and I have. been able to go neither forward nor back." Then I came up. "How do you do, Mr. Neville?" I said; "do you remember

me?" " .

"Why' he said, "isn't it Quatermain, eh, and Good, too? Hold on a minute, you fellows, I am getting dizzy again It is all so verv strange, and, when a

man has ceased to hope, so very happy."

That evening, over the camp-fire, George Curtis told us his story, which.

in its ways, was almost as eventiul as

our own, and amounted shortly to this.

A little short of two years before, ne had

started from Sitanda's Kraal, to try and

reach the mountains. As for the note I

had sent him by Jim, that worthy had

lost it. and he had never neara one iuj

to-day. But, acting upon information he had received from the natives, he made, not for Sheba's Breasts, but for the ladder-like descent of the mountafns down which we had just come, which

was clearlv a better route than that

marked out in old Don Silveptra's plan.

In the desert he and Jim suffered great hardships, but finally they reached .this

oasis, where a terrible accident Deteil George Curtis. On the day of their arrival, he was sitting by tiie stream, and Jim was extracting the honey from the nest of a stingless bee, which is to be found in the desert, on the top of

the bank immediately above him. In so doink he loosed a' great bowlder of rock, which fell upon George Curtis's right leg, crushing it frightfully. From that day he had been so dreadful lame, that he had found it impossible to go either forward or back, and had preferred to take the chances of dyin on the oasis to the certainty of perishing in the desert. As for. food, however, they had got on pretty well, for they had a eood supply of ammunition and the oasis wbb frequented, espe-

large quantities of thither for water.

should take a third Bhare of the tli'av monds, or if he would not, that his shar should be handed to his brother, who had sneered even more than ourselves on the chance of getting them. Finally we prevailed upon him to" consent to this arrangement, but George Quftig did not know of it till some time afterward. And here, at this point, I think I shall end this history. Our journey across the desert back to Sitanda's itrael was most arduous, especially as we had to support George Curtis, whose right leg wa8very weak indeed, and continually throwing out splinters of bone; but we did accomplish it somehow, and to give its details would only be to reproduce much of what happened to us on the former occasion. Six months from the date of our rearrival at.Sitandi's, where we found our guns and our goods quite safe, though the old scoundrel in charge was much disgusted at our surviving to claim them, saw us ail once more safe and sound at my little place on the Berea, near Durban, where I am now writing, and whence I bid farewell to all who have accompanied me . throughout the strangest trip. I ever made in the course of along and varied experience. Just as I had written the last word, a Kafir came up my avenue of orange trees,, with a letter in a cleft stick, which he bad brought from the post. It turned out to be from Sir Henry, and as it speaks for itBelf I give it in full. "Brayley Hall, Yorkshire. "My Dear Quatermain: I sent you a line a few mails back to say the three of us, Geo'ge,Good, and myself, fetched up all riiht in England. We got off the boat at Southampton, and went up to town. You should have seen what a swell Good turned out the next day, beautifully shaved, frock coat fitting like a glove, brand new eyeglass, etc etc. Iwent and walked in the park with him, where I met some people I knew, and at one told them the story of his 'beautiful white legs.' "He is furious, especially asvsome illnatured person has printed it in a soci

ety japer. To come to business, Good took the diamonds to Streeter's valued', as we arranged, and I am afraid to tell you what they put

at, it seems so enormons .They say that of course it's more Gr lets guess work, as such stones have never to their knowledge been put on the market in anything like such quantities. It appears that they are (with the exception of one or two of the largest) of the finest water, and equal in every way to the beat Brazilian stones. 1 asked them if they would buy them, but they said it was beyond their power to do so. and recommended us to sell by degrees, fir fear we should flood the market. They offer, however, a hundred and eighty thousand for a small portion of them. "You must come home, Quatermain, and see about these things, especially if von insiBt upon making the magnificent present of the third share, which does not belong to me, to my brother George, A s f or Good, he is no good. His time is too much occupied in shaving, and other matters connected with the vain adorning of the body. But I think he is still down on his luck about. Foulata. He told me that Bince he has been home he hadn't seen a woman to touch her, either as regards her figure or the sweetnees of her expression. . v.. "I want you to come home my dear old comrade, and buy a place near here. You have done your day's work, and have lots of money now, and there ia a place for sale quite close which would suit vou admirably. Do come; the sooner the better; you can finish writ: ing the story of our adventures on board ship. We have refused to tell the story till it is written by you, for fear that we shall not be believed, If you start on receipt of this, you will reach here by Christmas, and i book you to stay with me for that. Good is coming and George, and so, by the way, is y our boy Harry (there's a bribe for you). I have had him down for a week's shooting, and like him. He is a cool young hand; he shot me in the leg, cut out the pellets, and then remarked upon the advantage of having a medical student in every shooting party. "Good-bye, old boy; I can't say any more, but I know that you will come, if it is only to oblige, "Your sincere friend, "Henry Curtis. "F. 8. The tu8ksof the great bull that killed poor.

Arthur Beeler, aged nineteen, of Union Mills, was found lying in the woods Mouday, with a gun clasped in his arms, he having committed suicide by blowing out his brains. The youngBter,had been diap pointed in love, having been jilted by a girl with whom he was keeping company.

He anew very well it is uselees

to preach, to lecture with hungry men. So Elisha, recognizing this commonsense principle, which every .Christian ought to recognize, sends servants out to get food for these husgiy students. They pick up some good; healthful herbs, but they happen to pick up some coloquintida, a biwer, poisonous, deathful herb. They bring all these herbs and put them into the boiling pot; they stir them np, and then a portion. of this food is brought to the students and their professors. Seated at the table, one of the hungry students begins immediately to eat, and he happens to get hold of some of the coloquintida. He knew it by the taste. He cries out: "Poison, poison! Oh. thou man of God, there is eath in the potl" . Consternation is thrown over the whole group. What a fortunate thing it was that this student so early found" the coloquintida in the mixture at the table! You will by reference find this stoiy precisely as X have mentioned ii. Well, in our day there are great caldrons of sin and death. Coloquintida of mighty temptation is pressed into it. Some dip it out, and taste, and reject it and live. Others dip it put, taste it, keep on and die. And it is the business of every minister of religion and, every man who wishes well to the human iace, and who wants to keep the world back from its follies and suffenngs, to try out: "Beware! poison," poison! Look out for this caldron! Stand back! Beware!" ,.. )-. .... Some time ago, you will remember, I persuaded you - of the importance of being charitable in judgment of others. At the same time 1 said to you briefly what this morning I wish to say with great emphasis, that while we- sympathize with the sinner we must denounce sin, that while we pity the unfortunate we must be vehement against transgression. Sin is a jagged thing that jneeds to be roughly handled. You have no right to garlanddt with fine phrases., or lustrous rhetoric. In the first plaice, I remark that unhappy and undisciplined homes are the caldrons of great iniquity. v ' Patents harsh and cruel on the one hand, or on the other hand loose in tbeir government, wickedly loose in their government, are raising up a generation of vipers. A home wcre Bcolding and fretfulnese are dominant is blood relation to the gallows and the penitentiary! Petulance is a serpent that crawls up into the family nursery some times and crushes every thing. Why, there are parents who even make religion disgusting to ' their children. They scold them for not loving Christ. They have an exasperating way-of doing their duty. The house is full of the war-whoop of contention, and from such a place husband and sons go out to die. Oh, is there s: Hagar leading away Ishmael into thcxiesert to be smitten of the thirst and parched of the same? In the solemn biith hour a voice fell to thee from the throne, saying: "Take this child and nurse it for me, and "1 will give thee thy wages.!? At even time, when the angels of God hover over that home, do thty hear the children lisping the nsm of Jesufc? Oh traveler for eternityj: your little ones gathered under your robes, are you leading them on the right road, or' are you taking them out pri the" dangerous winding bridle-path off which their inexperienced feet may slip, and up which comes the ho w 1 in g of t he wolf and the sound of loosened ledge and tumbling avalanche? pi eesed is the family altar at which the children kneel. Blessed is the cradle in which the Christian mother rocks the Christian child. Blessed is the song the little ones sing at nightfall when sleep is closing the eyes and loosening the band from the toy on the pillow. Blessed is that mother whoBe every heart throb is a prayer for her children's welfare. Unhappy and undisciplined homes

are the source of much of the wretchedueBS and sin of the world, I know there

are exceptions , to it sometimes. From

a bright and beautiful Christian home a

husband or a son will go out to die. Oh, how long you had that boy in your prayere! He does not know how - many

Bieeplefis nighti vou have spent over

him. He does not understand how many tears you have shed for his way

wardness. Oh, it is hard, after you have

toiled.for a child, and given him every advantage and every kindness, to have him pay you back in ingratitude! As one Sabbath morniiig a father came to the foot of the pulpit as I spepped out of it, and said: "On, my son, my son, my son!'' There is many a young man proud of his mother, who would " Btrike into the dust any man who would insult her, who is at this moment himself, by his evil doing and his bad habits sharpening a dagger to plunge through that mother's heart. A telegram brought him from afar; he went bloated and scarred into the room and stood by the lifeless form of his mother, r Her gray hair; it had turned gray in sorrow. Those eyes had wept floods of tears over his wandering. That still white hand had done him many a kindness and had written many a loving invitation "and good counsel. He had broken her old heart He came into

the room and threw himeeit on tne casket and he sobbed outright: "Mother,

mother!" but those lips that had kissed him in infant y and uttered . so many

kind words tpake not: they were sealed.

Rather than nave such a memory come on my soul I would prefer to have roll

over on me tho Alps and the Himalayas.

But while sometimes there are boss

who turn out very badly, coming from good homes, I want to tell you for your

encouragement . it is a great exception. Yet an unhappy aha undisciplined

home is the poisonous caldron from

which a vast multitude drink their

death'. ,-. , '.. . -. " -:
