THE GREATEST NAME.
JESUS, THE NAME HIGH OVER ALL,
IN HEAVEN. EARTH OR SKY.
Dr. Ttlmlage Spoaksi it the Power and
"eauty anI Glory of Jesus' Namic-Ie
Tells of the 'potency and Coumolation
of the True Relig1onl.
BROOKLYN, May 1.-While Dr. Tal
mage is able to hold vast audiences
spellbound by his eloquence, whatever
subject he has in ha:d, he is never so
eloquent or so evidently a great orator
as when he preaches Christ as the one
hope for the regeneration of the world.
The fact was proved this morning whenl
he discoursed fr(oi tie text, P1hilippianis
ii, 9, "Tihe name which is above every
liaue."1
Paul is hcre making rapturous aid
eut,busiastic description of the %.ame ot
Christ. There are merely worldly
Snmies that somietimies thrill YoL through
and through. Such was the name of
lieury ('lay to a Keituckiani, the namlille
of Willim Wirt, to a V\rirgilian, the
nam11-e of Daniel Webster to a New En
g lander.
By connon p-overb we have cwme
to believe that "there is nothiig iii ia
name;" and so parents sometimes at
the baptismal altar give titles to their
children reckless of the fhd that that
title, that name, will be a lifk time iin
drance or i lifetiine help. You have
no right to give your child a tinme lack
ing either In eupliony or moral meaning.
1t is a sin to call a chilj!wi-Ad*mr
or Tiglathpilese- m that
is n f Re,ause you have ild
exasperating name yourself. is n1o
reason why you should inliict it upon
your pro.;eny. Alid yet how of ten it is
that we see a namie fill of jargon rat
tling down from generation to genera
tion simply because i lon11" while a1go
soml1e one happened to he 1111cted with
it. Insfititioiis and great eiterprises
sometimes without stllicieit dliheria
tion take nomenclature. Migity desti
ries have been decided by a name;
While Ive may hy a long course of
Christian behavior get over the mnisfor
tune of having beenl baptized with the
lame of' a despot or ia cheat, how much
better it wouhl have beeni if we coul(f
have all started life without any such
inmniilbralice!
When Paul, inl my text and in other
18assa1ges Of Scripture, burst, forth in as
pirations of' admiration for the name of
Christ, I watit to inquire what are tire
cibaratcteiit ies of that appellation, "'The
11111e which is above every name.'' In
the first place, speaking to you in re
gard to tihe name of Cirist, I want to
tell you it is anti easy name. You are
sonetimes intioduced to people with
long and unirprolollicelble i1nmes, and
you have to listen cautiously t) get the
names, alld 3 oui h.tve to hear them pro
nouniced two or tiree times before you
risk trying to itter t hem, but within the
first two years tire little C1h1 lis its
hands and I-joks uipward and says
"Jesis."

Thart heaiven1 mind earth mlighrt hiear.
But I r'emark fulrthler in) regard tc
this namre of Christ, flint It is a beaut.i.
l name. Now you1 have nloticedl thlat
you carnnot, disassocIate a name from thec
chlaracter of the person whro has it,
TIhlere arc some names, for instance,
thlat are repullsive to mry car. Thiose
names are at,tractive to your ear. Whlat
is tire dilference- Why, I hlapp)ened1 to
knlow sonme persons of thrat nuamo whro
were cross or sour or qureer or unsymi
parthetic, and the piersonrs who hrave
hiappeni I to knrow of' that nrame wereC
kind and genrial. Since, thenr, we can
nlot disassociate a name from tire char
acter of the persoH who hats the namre,
thaftt conrsideration makes tire namie of
.lesus unrspeakabhly b)eautrful.
I cannof prononunec thant, nameI in y our
presence, b)ut you think of Bethrlehenm
and Gethrsemane and1( Goigothai. and you
see his loving face, rind y ou hear Ihis ten-.
decr voice, and( you fee) his gentie touIch.
As soon as I pM'roouice is name in
your presence you tink of' him whro
banqueted withr heavenly hlierarchls, yet
camne down and breakfasted on the fish
whleh thes roulgh meni taledO out of
Gienesaret; you think of him who,
throughr tire clouds are the (lust, of' his
feet, walked f'ootsore on the roadl to
Emmaus.
I cannot speak his narme in your hear
ing this muornling, but you :h'n k right
away of the shining oneC whro restor'ed
the centurion's (laughter, andt who
helped the blind man to sunlighi t, rind
whIo made the cripple's crutch useless,
and wiho looked down into tire laughing
eyes of the brabe until it struggledl to go
to him; then, flinging iris arms aroundi
it, and imp)ressinlg a kiss upon01 its boau
tiful brow, said, "Of such 1s tihe king.
donm of heaven."
Oh, beautifuil name, thre r ame of
Jesus, which stands for love, for pa
tience, for self sacrufice, for miagnani'
mity, for everything *!at is grood and
s.torious and tender and sympathetic
anid kind! It is aromatic wit,h all odors,
It Is accordant with all harmonies.
fSometimes when I look at that name of
Jesust Christ it seemrs as if the letters
were made of feanrs, alnd then theOy see nI
to be gleamning crowns. Sometimes
that name sec ms to be twist,cd out, of the
straw on which he lay, and then it,
seems to be built out of the thrones on
times I sound that word Jesus, and I y
hear in It the sob of Gethsemane and v
the groan of Calvary, and then I speak p
his name and it is all a ripple with glad
ness and a ring with hosanna. (lorious t
namei! - A
Take all the glories of bookbiudery o
and put them around the page on which 1:
that name Is printed. On Christmas e
morning wreathe it on the wall. Lot it t
drip from harp's string and let It thun- 8
der out in organ's diapason. Sound it Y
often, sound it well, until every star I
shall seem to shine it, and every flower (
shall seem to breathe It, and mountain e
and sea, and day and night, and earth <
and heaven acclaim In full chant,
"Blessed be his glorious name forever.1' 1
"The name which is above every name.' 1
Dlave you ever heard In a Methodist i
church, during a time of revival, a score
of souls come to the altar and cry out 1
for mercy under the power of just two
.bcs of glourious old John Wesiej?
.Jesus, the name high over all,
In heaven, or earth, or sky.
To the repenting soul, to the exhaust
ed invalid. to the Sunday school girl, to
tle sno w white octogenarian it is beautt
ful. The aged man comes in froni a
long walk, and lie tremulously opens
the door of his home, and lie hangs his
hat on the old nail, and lie puts his cane
in the usual place, and he li!s on his
couch, and lie says to his chiilren ail
his grandclidren, "My dears. I am go
ing away from you." And they say.
"Why, where are you going, grand
f-athery" '"Oh,'' lie says, "aim going
to .Jesus;"l and Po the old man faints
away into heaven.
And the little child come ii from play
and she flings herself in your lap, and
she says, "Mamma, I'm so sick, i'. wa
very sick:" -awtVottptft'ner to'bed, and
'the 'fever is worse, and some iidnight,
while you are shaking up the pillow and I
-iving the medicine. she looks ti) uin your
haue and says, "'Mamma, I'm going
away from you.'' You say, "Why,
where are voutgoing, my darling'" And
she says, "I am going to .Jesus.'' And
the red cheek that, you take to be the
imark of [tie fever turns out to be only
tle carnation bloom of heaven.
Oh, was it not beautiful when a little i
child heard that her playmate was dyin.r t
aild she went to tle house, and she i
chambered upon the bed of' her dying
playitate, and she said to the dying
playmate. "Where are you golng to?"
and the dying girl said, "I'm going to
.Jesus.'' Then said tle little girl that
was % ell as she bent over to give the
parting kiss to her dying )pl.tymate,
"Well, then, if' vou are going to Jesus,
give my love to him.'' It is a beauti.ul
naie, whether on the lips of childhood
or on the lips of'the old man. When my
flather was dying thie village ininister
said to him, quoting over his pillow thia
passage, "This is a faithful saying and
wol thy of' all acceptation--that 'hristt
.Jesus camle into the world to save sin
ners, and there lie stopped. Thieni my
fither Iinishmed the quotation by sayinug ,
'"ot whomli I am chiet'.'
But I remark again, in regard to this
iime of' Christ, that it is i mighty name.
lIolhischild is a name mighty inl tle cou
miercial world, Sillinian is a name
imighity in tie scientific world, Irving is
a naimuc mighty in tle literary world.
W asliington Is a name uiighty i the
poliaticl world, Wellington Is a name
mighLty in the military world, but where
ini all the earth is a name so potent to
lift and [thrilf anid arouse anid rally and
biless as thie name ,Jesue~ Why, [lie
soutiil ,l' that one name unhorsed Saul
and threw Newton oni his face on ship's
deck, and that one name today, while I
specak, holds a hundred million souls n
oer imnipotent spell. That namne in
Engli~and today mecans more thiani 'Vic
tor,ica. In G ermuany that namie todayi
mecans more than Emperor WiTlliamr. I
()o, might y namie! 'I
I have seen a man bound hand and I
foot of the devil and( capt.ive of all evil\
habits, at [lie sound of that iiame dash.
downvi his shackles and march out fore'ver
iiree I have seen a nman overcome of'
-miiifortunie and trial, evcr0,:kliud of trouble
had lie; hut at [lie sound 31' that name
[lie sea dropped, and [lie cloudal p)artedl,
and the sunburst of eternal gladness
pioured upon his soul. I have seen a
mnii hardunened in infidelity, def'iaiAt of' i
God, lull of jeer and scoff, jocose of [lie<
judgeme'nt (lay, reckless of eternit,y, at
thie sound1( of [lintname blanch and cower
and groan andl kneel and weep and re
pent andl. pray andl belIeve and rejoice
and triumph.
Oh, it, is a ighty name. Under its
power the last tempille of suiperstitin will
comic down and thie last .Juggernaut of
iiuity will be shattered to p)leces. The
retd horse of carnage, sp)oken of ini apoc
aul y pt.ie v'ision; and thie black horse of'
death mutst conie back on [heir haunches,
while thie white horse of victory goes
for th, mounted of him who hiath the
miolon under his feet and [lie stars of
heaven for his tiara. Mighty name! It
will first make [lie whole earth tremble,
and [lien it wIll make all [lie nat,ions
sing. Mighty name!
Other dominions seem to be giving
wiay; France had to give up sonme of her
I avorlte ptrovmeces; Spain has lost a great
deal of' her power; many of the thrones
of' the wvorld are being lowered; many of
[lie scepters of [lie world are being
shortened, biut every tract (distri
butoir, every Bible p)rinter, every Chris
[ian institution established s preads
abroad [lie mighty name of Christ. It
fias already been heard unden [lie Chinese
wvall, and inl the Siberian siiow castle,
andl in the Brazilian grove, and in the
easteirn pagoda. Tihat name will swal
low up all other names. That crown
will yet cover up all other crowns. T.hiat
empiie will 3et compass all domina
lionis.
All crimes sball cease and aiiclent fraudls
shall fall,
lHcturnting justice lIft aloft her scale;
l'eace o'er the world her olive wand extend,
A nd whIte robed Innocence fromi heaven de
scend.
But 1 remark again, takIng a step for
ward in this subject, [hiat [lie name of'
ChrIst is an enduring name. You get
over the fenice of the graveyard and( you
pull [lie weeds back from the name that
has nearly faded f'rom the tombstone,
and1 you wish that Walter Scott's '"Old
MortalIty'' would come along and re
chisel it so that you might, really lind
out what [lie name is. W .y, that was
[lie name of [lie greatest man in a 11 thie
country, in all [lie stat,e, now a lonost
faded from [lie tombstone.
And so thiegreatest, names of th5 word
either have perished or are perishing.
Gregory VI, Sancho of Spain, Conrad I
of Germany, Rlichard I of' England,
Catherine of Russia. Trhose names
were once might,y, andl they made [ie
earth tremble. Who cares for them
nlow? None so poor as to (10 them re
verence. But the name of Christ Is
enduring forever. It will be preserved
jm the world's line art. There will be
other Bellinia t,o sketch [lie Madonna,
and other Ghlrlandaajos to present the

;omne of the linesi,I material ot the
tovelit that can be imaginel is that
)f the U7nited States I reasury," said a
imntlema who had been in that depart
mlit for a quat ter of a century.
'Whee is it?' "Why everywhere.
I'here is a bureau called the division of
L,bamloned lands and property, and
Ila' in itself i. one great romance. Its
itorv is full of marvelous facts.
Why, there are $13,000,000 In its charge
>eloging to people in the South alone.
tI bee, durini and at the close of
lhe war there was valuable property of
II sorts which fell into the hands of
ne army and was turned into the
reasury. Over 612,000,000 charged
,o that bi Ieau is the proceeds of cotton
akeni fron llantatons all over the
outhi and sold. The moory it brought
11 was turiled in ais I have told, the
i1nount being so great, that Mr. Chase,
heii secretary, created a division that
ihoild have speIal charge of all this
;ort of i ii hig.
Why there is one instance it is said
.174,0W0 worth ol cotton was taken
rom a Jar South estate when cotton
as worth about :3500 a btle and sold.
ile persons to whom it, belonged were
it, rebels but loyalists They have no
tea where their coton went. Their
;aes were on the hales and it w,9uld
iot be dilicul t for them to make a se
they knew what to do. But it .1as
>en nearly twenty-eight years since
he inmey ias deposited. I do not
LIuOW whether any of them are now
lying or not, but it is hardly probable
hey wl ever get what is really theirs.
\.11 the testimony relating to the case
s in the possession of the government.
lie agent who took the cotton and the
mie who sold it are both dead and the
m-ners will not be able to make their
ase without soine proof which they
lo not possess.
h-re are other instances similar to
his. In1 1863 we received 6109,000 from
government agent for cotton taken
a a foreigner, supposed to havo been a
Auc,aule tuinner in one of tlhi seaport
owns3 of the far South. Secretary
lae, when lie heard the facts said:
t'he money is only held in trust by the
,overiinent and some day N e shall be
Abiged to account for it, for the
roverimifent nas no right to keep it..
Iilt deiand was never made for it.
It is btelievcd that the owners never
mew just where it went. When the
,*niori army under General Sherman
capied the south Atlantic seabord
owns the Contederatf s used to destroy
ill the cotton, if possible, before they
Itrrendeied. and inillions of dollars
vere buried to keep it from falling
ri to mir hands. Tr wenty-live thousand
>t:i %ei ne debtroyed in Savannah. Ga.,
Aone to keep General Sherman from
3etting it. The owners did not know
'hat was burned and what was saved.
lie way \%e knew it was this: The
mioks were often kuut wit h the cotton,
howing that John .Ioies, for instance,
%ho was a nierchiat, had so many
tindred hales iarked in such a way.
l'he iles not. burned could be easily
dititled by the marks on them. In
triny Iiitances all the books contain
fig flhvownera 1ame1us were forward

A Chicago Horror.
C11CAO0, May 4 -Britiget Walsi,
wife ot Michuel Walsh, a teamiter in
the employ of .1. V. Farwell & Co., was
murdered some time to day and ititL
lated in a fashion suggestive of Jack,
the RLipper. 11er husband when he
returneil f rom work this evening found
her dead body in her bi-11 room with
sixty-liV) gashes upon it varying ia
length from one inch to a foot. Cuts
were upon every part of her body from
the crown of he. head to the soles of
her feet, but were most numerous upon
her breast and lower limbs. A pair of
long-bladed scissors were driven into
the woman's breast, immediately over
the heart, and a broom handle taken
from her kiteken had been driven
through her body lengthwise from ba.
low the throat, mutilating the body in
a most horrible manner. tier clothes
had all been cut from her body and
were thrown upon her remains.
Walsh's nephew, Thomas Walsh, has
been arrested for the crime and has
confessed. Ile says he made an in
proper proposal to his aunt, for which
she slapped his face. Ile drew his
knife and stabbed her, and the sight of
the blood suddenly drove him insane
with the result that he mangled and
tore the poor woman as related above.
Burned by a Woman.
The Bamberg correspondent, of
the Columbia Daily Register under
date of April 25, says: "On Saturday
night last the corn house and other lot
buildings, together with all the corn
and dry food of Dr. D. W. Barton, of
this place, were completely destroyed
by tire. There was no insurance. A
few days ago a negro woman made
threats of an incendiary nature against
Dr. Barton. This, xogether with the
fact that a woman's bonnet was found
near the burning buildings, and also
the remains of the torch with which
the work was done, confirms the belief
of incendiarism and points to the above
mentioned woman as the guilty party.
Nothing but the prompt action of the
citizens and a favorable wind prevented
a spread of the fire.
"On the same night the saw mill and
about fifteen thousand feet of lumber
of Air. Fuller Darnold, of the Fork, in
Orangeburg County, were burned. The
fire, it is thought, was communicated to
the mill and lumber piled on the yard
from a burning slab pile. No insurance.
Loss about $1,100."
