saving the machinery irom total demolition which would have happened had the engines continued working He then escaped unhurt The passengers were much excited but the captain and officers succeeded in

Following is a verbatim report of tho The Bible is the strangest the loveliest the mightiest weirdest the best of books Written by the lawyer Joshua the dier Samuel the judge Ezra builder Job the poet David the shepherd Daniel the prime minister Amos the herdsman thew the custom house officer the tor Paul tho scholar John tho exile and yet a complete harmony from the middle verse of the Bible which is the eighth verse of the one hundredth and seventeenth Psalm both ways to the upper and lower lids and from shortest passage which is the thirty-fifth verse of tlie eleventh chapter of John to the longest which is the ninth verso of the eighth chapter of Esther and yet not an im- perfection in all tho words which it is composed of It not only reaches over tho past but over the future has in it a boat aa in second Samuel and a telegraph wiro as in Job and a railroad train as in and introduces us to a by the name of Cain and a shipbuilder hy the name of Noah and an architect by the name of Aholiab and tells ns how many stables Solomon had to take care of his horses and how much he paid for thoso horses But few things in this versatile and sive book interest mo so much as its those short terse sententious epi- grammatic sayings which my is A living dog is butter than a rload lion THE DOGS LIONS OF TIIE MULE Here tho linn stands for nobility and the for meanness You must know that the ilog mentioned in tho text is not one of our American or European or Scottish dogs that in our mind is a synonym for the beautiful the graceful tho the sagacious und tho true Tlie St Bernard dog is a hero and if you doubt it ask the snows of tho Alps out of which ho picked the exhausted traveler The shepherd clog is u poem and if yon doubt it ask the highlands of land Tho Arctic dog tho rescue of and if you doubt it ask Dr Kane's expedition The watch dog is a living ami if you doubt it ask ten thousand homesteads over whose safety ho watched last night Rut Solomon author oC my text lived in Jerusalem and this dog ho speaks of in the text was a dug in Jerusalem Last I passed days and nights a stone's throw of where Solomon wrote this test and from what I saw of tho canines of Jerusalem by day and heard of them liy night I can understand the slight appreciation my puts upon the dog of Palestine It is lean and snarly and ing and afflicted with parasites and takes revenge ou the human race by filling the nights with clamor AH up and down tho Bible the most of which was written in lino or Syria or contiguous lands the dog is used in contemptuous comparison Hazael Is thy servant a dog that ho should do Iu self abnegation the woman Even tho dogs eat of tho crumbs which fall from the master's table Paul says in of and St John speaking of heaven Without aro dogs On Hie other hand tho lion is strong and loud voiced and at its roar tho forests echo and the mountains tremble It is for strength and when its hide is removed muscular compactness is something wonderful and tho knife of dissector bounds back from the dons By tho clearing off of the forests of Palestine and the use of firearms of which the lion is particularly afraid they have dis- appeared from places where once they ranged but they were very bold in times They attacked an army of Xerxes while marching through Macedonia They were so that ono thousand lions were slain in forty years in the amphitheatre of Rome bary lion the Cape lion tho Senegal lion the Assyrian lion make up a most absorbing and exciting chapter in natural history As most oC tho Bible was written in regions lion haunted this creature appears in almost all parts of Bible as a simile David under- stood its habits of night prowling and day slumbering as is seen from his The young lions roar after their prey and seek their meat from God The sun ariseth gather themselves together and lay them down in their dens And he cries out My soul is among lions Moses know them and said Judah is couched like a lion knew them for he took honey from the carcass of a slain lion mon knew them and Tho king's wrath is as the roar of a and again The slothful man There is a lion iu the way Isaiah know them and says in tho The lion shall eat straw like an ox knew and says Tho third was as the face of a lion Paul knew them and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion Peter knew them and says The dovil as a roaring lion walketh about St John knew them and says of Christ Behold the Lion of the tribe THE OF THE TEXT Now what does my mean when it puts a living dog and a dead lion side by side and says tho former is better than the It means that faculties actively used aro of moro value than great faculties ployed How often you see Somo man he will como up gloriously on the other side and the God who has watched him all through will give him a higher seat und a better sion and a grander eternity than many a man who had ou earth before his name the word honorable and after his LL D and F R S Christ said in Luke tho sixth ter that in heaven some who had it liard here would laugh there And I think a laugh of delight and congratulation will run around the heavenly when this humble ona of whom I spoke shall yo up and take the pre- of

but it scorns now that more with his ono talent limn wo did with our whilo Solomon standing among tho thrones overhears whisper und sees tho wonderment and will with benignant and all smile say Yes it is as I told the world many faculty actively used than great talent un- employed better is a living dog a dead THERE ABli PLENTY OF LIONS The simple fact is that the world has been and tho world is now fiill of dead lions They aro people of great capacity and largo opportunity doing nothing for the ment of society nothing for the overthrow of ovil nothing for tho salvation of souls Soino of them are monetary lions They have accumulated so many hundreds of thousands of dollars that you cun feel their tread wher they walk through any street or coma into any circle can by one financial move upset the money market Instead of tho ten per cent of their income which tho Bible lays down as the proper proportion of their con- to tho of God they do not give five per cent or three per cent or two per cant or one per cent or a half per cent or a quarter per That they aro lions no ono doubts When they roar Wall street State street Lombard street and the Bourse tremble In a few years they will lie down and die They will have funeral and a long row of fine carriages und mightiest requiems will roll from the organ and ed shaft of Aberdeen granite will indicate where their dust lies but for all use to tho world that man might us well have never lived As an experiment as to how much he can carry with him put a ten cent piece in the palm of his dead hand and five years after open tho
