STEADILY IMPROVES DR. TALMAGE'S SUNDAY SERMON. Argues That the World Grows Better Day By Day-- Many Opportunities. For Improvement. 1 WASHINGTON. D. C.-In this discourse Dr. Talniago recites some great ovontB and shows that thc world ia advunr.ing in thc right direction; text, Joel ii, 30, "I will 6hov. wonders in the heavens and in the earth/' Dr. Cumming-great and good man ?would have told un the exact time of the fulfillment of this prophecy. As I stepped iuto Iiis i/ludy in London on my arrival from Paris just after the French had sur rendered at .Sedan thc good doctor eaid to me: "It 13 just what I find told you about Fr?tice. People laughed-nt mo because I tailed abjut thc seven horns and the vials, but I foresaw ?11 this from the hook of Daniel and tho book of ltevelation." Not taking any such responsibility in the in terpretation of thc passage, I simply as eert that there are in it suggestions of many titiugs iii our time. . Our c-yos dilate and our heart quickens in its pulsations as wc read o? event?? in thc third century, thc sixth century, thc eighth ecutury, the fourteenth century, but there w?re more far-reaching events ?Toweled intiVthe nnu-ieeuth century than into any oti-:cr, and the last- twenty years eclipse any preceding twenty. We read in the doily newspapers of events announced in one paragraph and without any special .emphasis-events which a Herodotus, a Josephus, a Xenophon, a (Jibbon, would have taken whole chapters or whole vol umes to elaborate. Looking out upon oar time, w? must cry out in the words of the text. "Wonders in the heavens and in the earth." 1 propose to show you that (he lima in which we live is wonderful for disaster and wonderful for blcssinn, for there muct he lights and shades in this picture as in ?ll others. Need I argue that our time is .wonderful fur disaster? Our world has had ri rough time since by tho h?md of Cod it was bowled out into space, lt is no epileptic earth-convulsion after convul sion; iiosts pounding it with .-.lodpe ham mer of icebergs and lires melting it with furnaces seven times heated. It is a won der to me it has last i'd :<:i long. Meteors tbaoting by on this side und grazing it and meteors shooting by on thc olher side and grabing it. none o? them slowing up for safety. Wh ile (tacts and navies and argo gosks and flotillas of worlds sweeping all about us. Our earth like a iirhiug smack off the banks of Newfoundland, whi'e the Majestic and the St. Paul and the Kaiser Wilhelm dev Crcsse rush by. 13:sides that, our world bas by sin. been damaged in its internal machinery, and ever and anon thc furnaces have burst, and thc walking beami of the mountains have broken, and the islands have shipped a Bea. and the great hulk o? the world has been jarred with accidents that ever and anon threatened immediate demolition. But it seems to ns as ic the iasfc hundred years were especially characterized bv dis. aster-volcanic, occ.t.iie, epidemic. ? say volcanic because an earthquake is only a volcano hushed up. When Stromboli and <Totooa::i and Vesuvius ston breathing, let the foundations of the earth beware!

At ?thc mouth of thc Ganges are three islands, ?the llattiah, the Sundtep and the Dakin i?habazpore. In the midnight of October, J1877, on all those threo islands thc cry war. "The waters!" A cyclone arose and trolled the sci over those three islands, :and of a population of 310,000, 215,000 were {drowned. Only those saved who had climbed to the top of the highest trees! (Did you ever ste a cyclone? No? Then'1 .I pray Ced you may never sec ene. I gaw .'a cyclone on the ocean, and it awept us SOO miles hack from our course, and for ?thirty-six hours during the cyclone and lofter it we expected every moment to go Ito the bottom. They told us before wc re ?tired at 9 o'clock that the barometer had '.fallen, hut at II o'clock at night wo wore awakened villi the shock o? the waves. All thc I ?uh ts out! Crash went all the iife bnats. Waters rushing through thc sky? 'lights down into lbj cabin and down on the fiirupces until they hisse;! and smoked in thc deluge. Seven hundred people praying, shrieking. Our great ship poised a moment on the lop o< a mountain of phosphorescent lire and then plunged ?low n, down, down until it scamed as if '?he never w?uid again be righted. Ah, you never want to f.ee a cyclone ut sea! . ; Hut I \vi?s in Minnesota, where there was ono ci those cyclones ou laud that swept tho city o?-Rochester from ita foun? datioaa aud took dwelling houses, barna, men, women, children, horses, cattle and tossed them into indiscriminate ruin and lifted a rail train and dashed it ?own, a mightier hand thau that of engineer on the airbrake. Cyclone in Kansas, cycione in Missouri, cyc'.ono in Wisconsin, cyclone in Illinois, cyclone iu Jowa! Satan, prince of the power of the air, never made ouch cyclonic disturbances as he has in our day. And am I not right in saying that one of the characteristics of the limo ia which we live is disaster .cyclonic? But look at thc disasters oceanic. Shall I call the roll of the dead shipping? Yo monsters of the deep, answer w.ien I call your names. The Ville de Havre, the Schiller, the City of Boston, the Melville, thc President, the Cimbria, thc Utegon, the Mohegan. But why should I go on calling thc roll when nom: of them an swers, and thc roll is as tong as the white scroll of the Atlantic surf at Cape Hat teras breakers? lt the oceanic cables could report all the scattered life and all the bleached boues that they rub against in thc ocean, what a message of pathos aud tragedy for both beaches! In one storm eighty ?shermen perished off the coast of Newfoundland and whole fleets of them off the coast of England. Cod help the poor fellows at sea aud give high scats in heaven to thc Grace Darlings and Ida Lewises and the lifeboat men hovering arouud Goodwin sands and the Skerries! Tho sea, owning three-fourths of the earth, proposes to capturo the other fourth, and is bombarding " the land all around the carin. Thc moviug ol the hotels at Brich ? ton Beach backward 109 yards from where ! they once stood, a type of what is going on all around thc wotTd and on every coast. Thc Dead Sea rolls lo-day where ancient cities stood. So I rejoice day by day. Work for all to do, and we may turu the crank of tho Christian machinery this way or that, for we are free agents. But there is the track laid so long ago no one remembers it-laid by the hand of the Almighty God in sock ets that no terrestrial or satanic pressura can ever affect. And along the track the car of tho world's redemption will roll and roll to the Grand Central depot of the millen nium. I ha\e no anxiety about the track. I am only afraid that for our indolence and unfaithfulness Cod will discharge us and get some otljcr stoker and some other ; engineer. Thc train is going through with us or without us. There is a house in London where Peter thc Great cf Russia lived awhile when he was moving through thc land incognito and in workman's dress, that bc might learn ship carpentry, by which ho could supply the needs of Vis people. A stran ger was visiting at that house, "What's ia that box?" The owner said: "I don'i know. That box was there when I got the home, and it was there when my father got it. We havn't had any curiosity tD look at it. I guess there's nothing in it." "Well," said the stranger. "I'll give voil ?2 tor it." ''Well, done." The ?> was paid, and the contents of that box were sold to thc Czar of Russia for $30,000. In it thc lathing machine of Peter the Great, his private letters and document" of value beyond all monetary consideration. And here are the events that seem very insig nificant and unimportant, but they incase treasures of Divine Providence and eterni ties of meaning which after awhile Cod will demonstrate before the agc; as being of stupendous value.

Those of you who arc in midlife may well thank God that you have seen so many wondrous things, but there arc people alive ro-day who may lire to sec the shim mering veil between the material and thc spiritual world lifted. Magnetism, a word with which wc cover up our ignorance, will yet be an explored realm, Electricity, the fiery courier of thc sky, that Benjamin Franklin lassoed and Morse and Bell and Edison hr.vc brought under complcce control, has greater wonders to reveal.

While I was talking with him he went un and looked o^t. lie raid, "We are. expecting Hie Arizona to night." I said: "ls it possible yon know all those vessels? Do you know them as you kno-/ a man's face?" HT said: "Yes. f never make a mistake. Boiore I sro tilt hulls I orten know them by the masts. I knox* them all-I have watchc I them so long." Oh, what a cr.-.nd thine; it is to have ships telegraphed and heralded lc-.ig before they come to port, that friends may come down to the wharf and welcome their long absent ones! So to-day wc take our stand in the wa.ch tower, and through thc g.ass of inspiration wc look off and see a whole fleet of ships coming in. That is thc shin of peace, flag with one star of Bethlehem floating above thc topgallants. That is tlie ship of the church, mark of salt water high upon thc smokestack, showing she has had rough weather, but thc Captain of Salvation commands har, and all i:i* well with her.

Dnncerfc ot Alcoholism. It ia needless to enter into details as to the coi\6enuenccs entailed by overindul gence in thc u=c of alcohol. Most of us arc familiar with cns?s of ruined lives and wretched homes as the resn't. of the fatal habit, and in these days of high-pressure living it in becoming more and more com mon. Menial worry, overwork, ill-health, w:mt of sufficient nourishment and clolh ine trod to swell the number ol' chronic alcoho'.i?ts, and the habit so easily ac quired is c::lrcnic?y difficult to relinquish. The real danger tn the race, however, lies in the fact that the great majority of inebriates need no incentive to acquire the habit: t''"y are born with tho tendency, and it is to this cause ch icily that we must, ascribe the increase in the number of deaths from chronic alcoholism during tne last twenty-three yon-is. A reference to the tab!e of statistics shows that in 1875 twenty-seven persons in i.?0f?.O0!) died as the result of chronic alcoholism: in 1S93 thrsa J??iroa had mcoi Uun dotjhJcH Lfeem se.vi-s. Lie nuiuucr men uen>g recurnea aa sixty-five ner 1,000,091) of population. The following quotations point to the conclusions arrived nfc by some of the nioefc eminent men of the day: "Heredity as a causation is estimated to be present in nearly sixty per cent, of all esses of chronic a'cohoiism. ' "There are not a few human beings 60 saturated with the taint or alcoholic he redity that they could ns soon 'turn back a flowing river from the sea' as arrest the march of an attack o? alcoholism." 1 Much that has been 6nid respecting in sanity applies equally to inebriety. Iloth belong to the group of diseases of the ner vous system, chowing a marked tendency to degeneration, and both are liable to bo transmitted hereditarily. - Westminster Ileview. Forbid Drinliln?

NEGRO SUPERSTITION. Bon*? of Thom Are wast X.Ike tho Ones Held hy Their White Urethren. Many of the negro superstitions In Kentucky are quite interesting. An old philosopher told me with great gravity; "if you want peppers to grow, you must git mad. My old 'oman an' mo had a spat, an' I went right out an" planted my peppers, an' they cam? right up." Still another Baying is that peppers, to prosper, must Iv? planted by a red-headed or by a high-tempered person. The negro also Kays that o?e never bees a jailbird on Friday, for tho bird vislls bia satanic majesty to "pack kindling" on that day. The three signs in which the ne groes place implicit trust are the well known ones of tho ground hog appear ing above ground on the 2d of Febru ary; that a hoe must not be carried through a house or a death will fol low, and that potatoes must be plant ed In the dark of thc moon, os well aa all vegetables that ripen in the ground, ann that corn must, bc planted In the light of the moon. Feed gunpowder to dogs and it will make them fierce. A negro will not burn the wood of a tree that has been struck by lightning, for fear that his house will burn or be struck by lightning. If a bird flies into a house it brings luck. If a craw fish or a turtle catches your toes lt will hold on till it thunders. When a child I was told by a black nurse that If a bat alights on one's head It will stay there till It thunders. This was so terrifying that, oven now I have an unnecessary fear of being clutched by a bat. To make soap, stir it with a sassafras 6tick In thc dark of tho moon. Hil Itoyiil -IlKhne-K. A good story ls told of England's heir apparent, who recently made the grand imperial tour. He was riding on a London 'hus incog, not many months ago, and, being of an Inquiring turn of mind, asked the driver, beside whom ho sat, his reason for exclaiming, whenever he whipped up one of the horses, "Come up, your royal high ness, will you?" "Why do you call him royal highness?" asked the duke. "Well, sir." he replied civilly, " 'cause he's so 'orly and lazy, and good for nothing! See?" His royal highness did not pursue the .subject, but after ward told the story to his friends with great gleo^ anil so it got into print. Detroit Free Press.
