A Jerusalem Shoe Shop and Restauran In describing some of his experiences in the Holy City in the New York World, Frank Carpenter says: "I stopped one afternoon before a shoe shop, and out of curiosity j took its measurements.

It was as dark as a pocket and the shoemaker squatted in the entrance with a board on his lap and he filled it completely. He was working at a pair of rough Bedouin shoes and the owner of these squatted crosslegged in his bare feet while the cobbler waxed his thread and in pulling it was careful to move his hands toward the street and back into the shop.

It was an oval hole cut into the ihill twelve feet high, eight feet *dde and forty feet deep.. At the front was the cooking stove of Jerusalem, consisting of a rude slab of lime-stone with holes bored into the top as big around as a workman's dinner bucket, and with other holes ' ' il H i_T. - "J A # piercing inese irom me siaes. a sew i inches from the top of cadb. hole was a rude iron grating and upon this the charcoal was laid, and by the draught which came in from below the cooking was done.

Both parties rested on tneir arms. t At this crisis some follower of the , King- suggested dynamite. It -was a c happy thought. Dynamite was procured * and put in bottles along with a great deal ' of ominous, scrap iron. The next question was: How should the dynamite he 1 brought in contact with the rebels? The I distance was too great for an ordinary 1 man. to hurl the bottles and no one could c ?uggest any other way to explode their 1 contents in the proper place. ?

Now that I have asked you in regard to your welfare, you naturally ask how I am. Very well, thank you. Whether it was the bracing air of the Colorado mountains, 12,000 feet above the level of the sea, or the tonic atmosphere of the Pacific coast, or a bath in the surf of Long Island beach, or WU6DD6T IT/ is fcHt? joy ujl dutuuiug *** vum group of warm hearted friends, or whether It is a new appreciation of the goodness of God, I cannot tell.

Starting out this morning on a new ecclesiastical year, I want to give you the key note of my next twelve months' ministry, I want to set it to the tune of Antioch, Ariel and Coronation. Some time ago wo had a new stop put in this organ?a new trumpet srop?ana a want to put a new trumpet stop into my sermons. - In all our Christian work you and. Lwant more of the element of gladness. That man has no right to say that Christ never laughed. Do you suppose that He was glum at the wedding in Caua of Galilee? Do you suppose Christ was unresponsive when the children clambered over His knee and shoulder at His j own invitation? Do you suppose that the evangelist meant nothing when he said of Christ: rejoiced in spirit?" Do you believe that the Divine Christ who jxrars all the water over the rocks at Vernal Falls, Yosemite, does not believe in the sparkle and gallop and tumultuous jov ?rwi nidrimr raptures of human life? I j believe not only that the morning laughs,and that tine mountains laugh, and that the seas laugh, and that the cascades laugh, but that Christ laughed. Moreover, take a laugh and a tear into an ah>inbie, and assay thenj,anjl test them, and analyze them, and you will often find as much of the pure gold of religion in a Jaugh a<rma tear. Deep spiritual joy always showjj jtsclf" in facial illumination. John Wesley said he was sure of a good religious impression being induced because of what he calls the great laughter ho saw among the people. Godlets merriment is Uasphcmy I ?nvwiip.ro. but expression of Christian joy is appropriate everywhere. I ' Moreover, the outlook of the world ought to stir us to gladness. Astronomers recently disturbed many people by telling them that there is danger of stellar collision. We have "been told tnrough the papers by tiiasu ;istronoiners that there are worlds coming very near together, and that we shall have plagues ai)d wars and tumults aud perhaps the world's desSyjiction. Do not be scared. If you have ever stood *?, a railroad center, where ten or twenty or thirty tail tracks cross each other, and seen ! .that by thv movement ot the switcn one or two inches vlu? train shoots this way arid that, without colliding, then you may understand how fifty worlds may corny within an inch of disaster.and that inch baas good as a million miles. If a human switchtender can shoot the trains this way and that without harm, cannot the Hand" that for thousands of j-ears has upheld the universe keep our little world out of harm's way? Christian ge?v logists tell us that this world was million of years in building. Well, now, I do not think God would take millions of years to build a house which was to last only six thousand years. There is nothing in the world or outside the world, terrestial or | astronomical, to excite dismay. I wish that some atout Gospel breeze might scatter all I the malaria of human foreboding. The sun rose this morning at about half-past 5, and I think that is just about the hour in the world's history. "The day is at hand/' The first ray of the dawn I see in the grad?zal substitution of diplomatic skill for hn?rian butchery. Within the last twenty [ fivo 3-ears there have been international | differences which would have brought a shock of arms in any other day, but which I were peacefully adjusted, the pen taking the I place of the sword. That Alabama question in any other age of the world would have caused war betv/een the United States and England. How was it settled? By men-of-war off .the Narrows, or off the Mersey? ?3' the Gulf Stream of tli?ocean f crossed by a gull stream or nuinan oioour By the pathway of nations incarnadined? No. A few wise men go into a quiet room at Geneva, talk the mutter over, and telegraph to "Washington and to London. "All settled." Peace. Peace. England pays to thy United States the amount awarded?pays really more than saw ought to have paid. But still,* I all that Alabama broil is settled?settled forI ever. Arbitration instead of battle. | So, the quarrel .eight or nine years ago about the Uanacnan nsnenes m any uuim u^e would have caused war between the United States and England. England said: "Pay me for the invasion of mv Canadian fisheries" The Upited States said: "I will not pay anything." Well, the two nations say: "I guess we had better leave the whole natter to a -commission." The commission is appointed, and the commission examines tno affair, and the commission reports, and pay I we oucrht. pav* wo must, pay we do. Not a I pound'of powder buried, not a cartridge bitten off, no one hurt so much as by the scratch of a p>n. Arbitration instead of battle. So the Somoan controversy in any other age would have brought Germany and the United States in bloody collision. But all is settled. Arbitration instead of battle. France will never again, I think, through peccadillo of ambassador, bring on a battle with othor nations. She sees that God, in punishment of Sedan, blotted out the French Empire, and the only ^spirant of that throne who had anv riirht of expectation dies in a war that has not even the dignity of being I respectable. What is that blush on the cheek of England to-day? What is the leaf that England would like to tear out of her history? Tho Zulu war. Down with the sword and up with tho treaty.

Before this dwindling red race dies completely out, I wish that this generation might, by common justice, atono for the inhumanity o? its' predecessors. In the day of God's judgment. I would rather there "be a blood-smeared Modoc than a swindling United States officer on an Indian reservation! Ono man wa? a barbarian and n cq virrp ?nd npvcr "bretended to be I anything but a barbarian and a savage. The other man pretended to be a representative of a Christian naticta. Notwithstanding all this, the general, disgust with war and the substitution of diplomatic skill for the glittering edge of keen steel is a sign unmistakable that "the day is at hand." I find another ray of the dawn in the compression of the world's distances. What a slow, snail-like, almost impossible thing would have been the world's rectification with fourteen hundred millions of population and no facile means of communication; but now through telegraphy for the eye and telephonic intimacy for the car, and through stcamboatincr and railroadincr. the twentylive thousand miles ot tbe world's clrcumrer ence are shriveling up into insig nificant brevity. Hong Kong is near er to New York than a few years ago New Haven was; Bombay, Moscow, Madras, Melbourne within speaking distance. Purchase a telegraphic chart, and by the blue lines see ' the telegraphs of the land, and by the red linos tho cables under the ocean. You see what opportunity this in going to give for the final movements of Christianity. A fortress may be months or years in building, but after it is constructed it may do all its. work in twenty minutes. Christianity has been planting its batteries for nineteen centuries, and ma}' go on in the work through other centuries; but when those batteries are thoroughly planted, those fortresses are fully built, they may all do their work in twentyfour hours. Tho world somotim&? derid&a ihe church for slowness of movement. Is science e. r\: .1 j. &? any qUICKerr JJiu it U<JU iuko r.t:eiiuts live thousand six hundred and fifty-two years to find out so simple a tiling as the circulation of the human blood? With the earth and the sky full of electricity, .science took nve thousand eight hundred years before it even guessed that there wa< any practical use that might. !>< made of this subtle and mighty element. Whe.u good men take possession of all these scientific forces, and all those agencies of invention, I do not know that the redemption of the world will be more than the work of half a day.

"The day is at,hand H One more ray of the dawn I see in facts chronological and mathematical. Come now, do not let us do another stroke of work until we have settled one matter. What Is going tp be the final' issue of this great contest between sin and righteousness? Which is going to prove himself the stronger, God or Diabolus? Is this, world going to be all garden or all desert'? Now let us have that matter settled. If' we believe Isaiah and Ezekiel and Hosea. and Micah and Malaclii, and John and' Peter, and Paul and Christ, we believe that it is going to be all garden. But let us have! it settled. Lot us know whether we are; working on toward a success or toward a dead failure.

"Th:; day is at hand." There is a class of phenomena which makes me think that the spiritual and the heavenly world may, after a while, make a demonstration in Ibis world which will bring all moral and spiritual thir.gsto a climax. Now, I am no spiritualist: but every intelligent man bas noticed tbat there are strange and mys? terious things which indicate to him tha'i perhaps the spiritual world Is not so far oli as sometimes we conjecture, and tbat after & while, from tiie spiritual ana ueavemy worm there may be a demonstration uj>on oiir world for its betterment. TVe call it magnetism, or we call it mesmerism, or wo call it electricity, because we want some term to cover up our ignorance. I do not know what that is. I never heard an audible voice from the other world. I am pursuaded of this, however: that the veil between this world and the nest is getting thinner and thinner, and that, perhaps after a while, at the call of God? iiot at the call of the Davenport brothers. or Andrew Jackson Davis?pome of the old scriptural warriors, vmo r;f the spirits ?i other days mighty for God?a .! ovinia. <<i* a Caleb, or a David, or a Paul?may come down raid help us in this bait!* against unrighteousness.

History says that Robert Clayton, of the English cavalry, at the close of a war bought up.all the old cavalry horses lest they be turned out to drudgery and haid work, and bought j a piece of ground at Jfaversniire j heath and turned these old war horses into the thickest and richest pasture to sjiend the rest of their days for what they had-donein other days. One day a thunder storm came up, and these war horses mistook the thunder of the skies for j tUe thunder of battle, and they wheeled into ; lfn*?no riders on their backs?they wheeled i into line ready for the fray.

Among the modern "Mysteries of Paris" is a shop devoted to the sale of tea. At the retail counter a real'live Prince may be seen any day weighing up packets of the leaf which cheers but does not inebriate. This Prince is the son of a European general, whose name is well known throughout the continent, and who is related to some of the most aristocratic of the families of Paris. A Century and a Half of Life. For several years there has been domiciled at the Monterey County Hospital in California, an Indian known bv the name of ''Old Gabriel." As to the exact day, month or year of his birth, proof is wanting ; but of the fact that he has passed the wonderful age of 150 years there-is a quantity of evidence. He was born in Tulare County, but during childhood removed to the town of Monterey. Father .Tuuipero Serra arrived in Monterey in 1770, and it is well authenticated that at that time Gabriel was a grandfather. The youngest age at which an Indian married was fifteen years. If Gabriel followed the custom and married at tnat age, ne would necessarily have been at least thirtytwo or thirty-three years old to have been a grandfather at the time of Father Junijxsro'a landing there. Father Junipero taught Gabriel the art of cutting and layingstone, and at the time of building the first chapel, in the years 1771 and 1772, Gabriel assisted in the construction of the walls. He became so expert at his trade that he managed the construction of the San Antonio Mission in 1781. He then married his second wife. Father Sorrentini, the priest, and Bishop Araat reached Monterey some time in the year 1845. The former says that. Old Gabriel was then living with liis sixth wife, and he was by many years the senior of all the old inhabitants. He was then known by the same name, and was said to be at that time over 110 years of age. A widely known old lady by the name ?!* tt-V*-flr-r? r ..ovc Orcr\ of fkn n Vtwn Vj ??uiv^vi xi ? v j vuiu ?w v^v :gc of ninety-five, in testifying to Old Gabriel's age, said that when a child she aiw him and that time he had children several years older than she was. Gabriel remained at Old Capitol until a few years ago, when ho removed to Salinas Valley, where he uas lived ever tince. Up to within two or three years, he was a familiar figure on the streets of Salinas City, but now ne is rareiy seen, I as his trips from the hospital to the town I are becoming less frequent. He has always been fond of striking colors, and for years wore a coat made of cloth reprepresenting all the colors of the raift* bow.?Neta. York-Tribune^^J. 4 ,, Recognition in Birds. Mr. TV. J. Stillman. writing to Mature from Canea, Crete, records a curious instance of instinct in birds, which is by no means singular. A gardener living in Zuk^leria, three miles from Canea, caught a young but fully fledged sparrow in his garden, which he brought to the house of a friend, vritli whom ?<Ir. Stillman and his family are staying in Canea. 1 He presented the bird to one of the children in the house, it was put in a cage and hung in the window, and after a few hours it lost its fright and became placid. It was early in the morning when it was caught, and late in the afternoon an old bird was noticed fluttering about the cage, wmie tne young one was making frantic efforts to get but to the old one. It -was evidently the mother of the young bird, as the recognition was too cordial to have been owing to the interest of a strange bird. On the cage being opened they both flew off rapidly in the direction of Zulakeria, from which the old bird must have traced its nestling by some instinct as it is impossible she had followed the gardener, or she would have been observed earlier in the day. . ..
