TALMAGE PREACH ES ON THOSE WHO ARE AWAKE AT NIGH". ?"e*.v In.lWU Are They Who Need l> Out Till .M?UH?KM. but tho dil linsO and Vi cious Fin?! That Their Hom Practical Christian Work Needed. BROOKLYN, April 9.-Rev. Dr. Tal mage chose for his sermon today a theme of universal interest-the dark sid social life in our great cities. Thetext chosen as the basis of a most graphic dis course was Genesis i. 5, '"And the dark ness he called night." Two grand divisions of ?me. Theene of sunlight, the other of shadow: the one for work, the other tor rest: the one a type of everything glad and beau'ifni, the other used in all languages as a type of sadness and affliction and sin. These two divisions were made by the Lord hAmsolt. Other divisions of time may have nomenclature of .human mv??tion. but the darkness held up its dusky bxow to the Lord, and he baptized it. the dew dripping from his fingers as hejjave it name, "And the darkness he called night." My subject is midnight in town. The thunder of thc city has rolled oat of the air. The s?ightest'sounds cut ?.be ri rht with such distinctness as to attract your attention. The tinkling of the bell of the street car in the distance and the baying of the dog. The stamp of a horse in the next street. Th.- slamming of a saloon door. The hiccough bf the drunkard. . ^The shrieks of tin- steam whistle five miles away. Oh, how sug gestive, my friends-midnight in town' ANGELS OF THE SIGHT. There are honest men passing up and down the street. Here is a cit ? mi?*3* ro ary who has btH>iM>*rr>"i:i~ a scuttle of coal, to that poof family ??' that dark place. Here is an undertaker going op the steps of a bnilding from whd :h there comes a bitter cry which indicates teat the destroying angel has smitten {he firstborn. Kore is a minister of religion who has been giving the en. rament to a dying,.Otesfr'ao. Here is a physician pay :rr >?>'-g in gr^nt haste, the mes te ?'y\T.**T.< y- -ahead hm "\i?g .on to the re'-^iold. Nearly all the lights have g">ne out- in the dwellings. Th; ' light in the window the light of the watcher, for the medicines must be xnirnstered. and the fever must be watched, and the restless tossing <>?T of the coverlid must be resisted, an I the ice must be k pt on the hot temples, and the perpetual prayer must go up from hearts soon to bu broken. Oh, Tb..- mid night in town! What a stUpend ?us thought-a whole city at rest! . - Weary arm preparing for tomorrow's toil. Hot brain 'being-cooled off. Rigid muscles relaxed. Excited nerves soothed. The white hair of the octogenarian in thin drifts across the pillow, fresh fall of flakes on snow already fallen. Child hood with its dimpl >d hands thrown out on the pillow, .-.io with every breath taking in a new st.-re of fun and frolic. God's slumberless eye will look. Let one grc-at wave of refreshing slumber roil over the heart of tue great town, submerging care and anxiety and v. ?rri ment and pain. Let the city sleep: but, ~~?y frlend^be not deceived. There will be thousands tonight -soTio wm not sleep at all. X?o up that dark alley and be cautious where you tread lest yon fall over the prostrate form of a drunkard lying ou his own doorstep.

You say, ..'Why don't they beg?" They do, but they get nothing. Yon say. "TQ -, don't they deliver themselves over to the almshouse?" Ah. you wojoid ^ot ask that if you ever heard the bitter cry of a man or a child when told he must go to the almshouse. THE ll- ?NEST POOR. ."Oh." yon say.

And I want you to know-that these vicious p<-?.r have bad two shipwrecks-shipwreck of the body, shipwreck of the soul-sin pw reek for time, shipwreck for eternity. Pity, by all means, the innocent who are suffer ing, but pity more tue guilty. Pass on through the alb y. Open the do?r. -"Oh." you say. "it Ia locked." No, it is not locked; it has never hui locked.

A great deal of what is called Chris tian work goes for nothing for the sim ple reason it is not practical, as after the battle of Antietam a man got ont of an ambulance with a bag of tracts and he went distributing the tracts, and George Stuart, one of th? best Christian men in this country, said to him: ""What are yon distributing tracts for now?

He welcomed me to rn] home at the west. He was o? splendid personal appearance, and he ha l an ar dor of soul and a warmth of affectioi that made me love him like a bro! her. I saw men coming ont ot the saloon: and gambling hells, andthey surrounde< my friend, and they took him at th? weak point, bis social nature, and I suv him going down, and I had a fair tall with him, for I never yet saw :: man yoi could not talk with on the subject of hi habits, if you talked with him in th right wey. 1 said to him, "Why don' you give up your bad habits ami becom a Christian?" I rememl er now just hov he looked, leaning over his counter, a ho replied: "1 wish 1 conld. Oh. sir. should like to be a Christian, but I hav gone .so far astray I can't get hack." SICKNESS AM' REPENTANCE. -So the time went on. .After awhil the dav of sickness came. I was sum moued*to his sickbed. I hastened. I v i took me but a. very few moments tc gc ' ' there.

Why tVe Are Slack In Speech. 1 J We do not demand careful speech o our children because we do not know i 1 I ourselves. We rebuke them a dczei times for some breach of etiquette wit] a teaspoon or a dish, but we do not third to say, "Stop-decide first what you wan to say. and then say it clearly and brief 1J ly." We do not think of it because wi do not do it ourselves, and not doing i we do not notice it in others.

Th* buildings are models of excellence, and no expense has been spared to secure as professors those who are pre-eminent in every department of human knowledge.

Even the smaller towns have public libraries, generously supported by the local authorities, and open in the even ings, affording unlimited opportunities for self education which would pnt to shame New York, with its inadequate facilities. The east should wake up, or it will be found that this process will surely transfer to the west the scepter of influence, for "knowledge is power." New York Herald. A Now Surgical Needle.

A French woman recently wrote to s Paris litterateur asking for a remedy foi the "one-day-like-another complaint.' .T live," she says, "in a dull provincial town, where there is not a woman whc can read or talk: if I read, I have no ont to discuss the book with, and 1 have ar rived at the desperate point of despah where I would like to bite some one." The litterateur, according to the ac count, did not much help her, aa h( merely, in reply, admitted the fact in i quotation from De Musset, which was in effect that there is no more c?mmoz trouble in life than the tr able of a com mon soul. Perhaps the only echo of the Frencl woman's wail could be found over hen in the suburban towns of a large city. The smallest detached villages an( towns of America seem t? have occu pation and excitement of one sort or an other that make life endurable.

At recent demonstration several sampl boards were prepared, each having ai ranged up*?n it samples of various wei known'electrical wires, one samp,e upo: each board b"ing the new wire. All th Samples had the same sized conducto and were carefully wired together into, circuit, ?> as to allow of their bein; tested in comparison and under the sam conditions. These sample Ix ?ards represented 1 leading makes of insulated wires, sev eral of them being claimed by their mah ers to be fireproof. A powerful electri current was nen applied and main tained until the conductor was firs brought to a red heat, then a white hea and in some cases melted. Under thi h?tense heat every one of the samples ex c<-pt the new wire was entirely destroyed in several instances setting fire to tb board, but in no case did sufficit-nt Tica escape through the new wire to discolo: the board beneath it.-New York Tele gram. A Convict'? Letter. In East ' i ienwich there is a womal jailkeepe: v. hose father and grand father kept tue jail before her. Soin secure was the old place that some yean ago it was no unusual thing for the pris oners to remark that they could escape but they were treated so. well they didu': care to. To one of the prisoners wh< spoke of the matter of escape Mrs. Smitl replied that she had asked for an appro priation. whereupon the prisoner callee for pen and ink and wrote to the gov ernor of the stat.? a characteristic letter which is kepi among the archives. It ii headed "East Green wi- i Jail," and con thanes, "If you don. send some om* doun hore pretty quick and patch iij this place for Mrs. Smith as.sh? wants it, I'll leave."-New York San, An L'njrodly Grin. A Xewtmrg minister-was preaching th?- other day. A young girl annoyed him by grinning. He said: "There is in this audience a young lady-no, a young girl-whose head resembles an empty basket. She has done nothing since she entered the church but grin. I want lier to know that all of Hf?1 does not consist of having a fine bonnet." Of cours..- the giri shouldn't have grinned: but. all the same, if she h is any big brotherb they might properly put in 15 minutes in remonstrating with that preacher. Fresh ness in the pulpit should be discouraged. -Bnffaio Express.
