THE BROOKLYN DIVINE'S SUNDAY
SERMON.
TEXT: "-4 certain man roent down from
Jerusalem to Jericho."? Luke x., 30.
It is the morning of December 5 in Jerusalem,
and we take stirrups for the road
along which the wayfarer of old fell atiioug
thieves, who left him wounded and half
dead. Job's picture of the horee in the i
orient as having neck "clothed with thunder"
is not true of most horses now in Palestine.
There is no thunder on thairjMhh&fl
though there is Some liahth^r
Kaalt* PamIW
whacked, they somett met retortTT^AmS^
cans aud English, who are accustomed to 1
guide horses by the bridle, these horse* of
toe orient, guided only by foot and voice,
make equestrianism au uncertainty, and the
poll on the bridle that you intend for slow
ing up of tko pace may bo mistaken for a
hint that you want to outgallop the wind or
wheel in swift circles liko the hawk, Hut

[inicv in Palestine shall have the praise of
eoing ror weeks without ouo stumbling stop
f f amid rocky steeps. where mi ordliinry
would not for an hour malututn suroibotedness.
There wore eighteen of our
party, ami twenty-two boasts of burden carried
our camp equipment. IV e are le?l by an
Arab Rheik, wit h ins black Nubian servant
carrying a loaded gun In full sight, but It is
the /act that this sheik represents the Turkish
Government which assures the safety of
Hie caravan.
Wo cross the Johoshnphat Valioy, which,
if it had not been uiomornblo in history and
were only now discovered, would excite the
admiration of ail who look upon it. It is j
liko the gorges of tho Yosemitoor the chasm s
of the Yellowstone Park. Tho sides of this
Jelioshaphafc Valley are tunneled with graves |
and overlooked by Jerusalem walls?an eternity
of depths overshadowed by mi eternity
of architecture. Within sight of Mount
Olivet mi l Gethsemnno aud with tho heavens
ami the earth full of sunshine, we start out
oil the very road mentioned iu tho text when
it sayt^ "A certain man wont down from
IITUNURIU lO IIBnCUO mill lOI^ (UUOIlg
thieves." No road that I ever saw was si?
well constructed for brigandage ? deep
gulloys, sharp turns, caves on either side.
Thore are fltty places on this road where u
highwayman might surprise and overpower
an unarmed pilgrim. Ills cry for help, his
shriek of pain, his death groan would be answered
only by the echoes. On this road today
we met groups of men, why, judging
from their countenances, have In their veins
tho blood of many generations of Rob Roys.
Joseph us says that Ilorod nt one time discharged
from tho sorvico of tho temple forty
thousand men, and thut tho great part of
them tiecamo robbers. Bo late (is 1820 Sir
Frederick irenuikor, an English tourist, was
attacked on this very road from Jerusalem
to Jericho aU(l shot and almost slain. Thero
has novcr lieen any scarcity of bandits along
the road we travel to-day.
With tho fresh memory of some recent,
violence in their minds Christ tells tho
people of tho good Samaritan who canio along
that way and took care of a poor fallow that |
liad been set upon by villainous Arabs and |
robbed and pounded and cut. We encamped
(or lunch that noon closo by an old stono
luilding, said to bo the tavern whoro tho
Bcono spoken of in tho Bible culminated.
Tumbled in the dust and ghastly with
'wounds the victim of this highway robltery
lay in the middle of the road?a fact of
which 1 am certain, because the Bible says
tho people passed by on either shlo. Thero
were 12,000 priests living at Jorlcho, and
they hail to go to Jerusalem to officiate at
the temple. And ono of theso ministers of
religion, I suppose, was on his way
to me loiupie service, nun 110 is
startled as ho sees this bleeding victim in tin
middle of the road. ''Oh," he says. "hero Is
n lnun tliat has been attacked of thieves.
Why don't you go hosnoi''' says the minister,
alio man, in n comatose state, makes no answer,
or, with a half i in zed look, puts his
wounded hand to his cashed forehead.
drawls out, "What-:"' "Well." says the
later, "I must hurry on to my dutiesat.JegH*

Js'oon afterward a l.evite came npon ttio

of 'ue temple and waited upon the priests
and provided the supplies of tho temple.
Tin- i.evite, passing along this road where
we are to day, took a look at the iuh-h of '

road. "My! my!" s-.ys tlio l.evite, "this,

says: "This poor follow <loos not led-nig

And he get /loivn on his knciv; uud. iH^ian to

limbs to see if any of his bono* aro br.Aen,
ami says: "M v dear follow, ohoor up; you

"Oh, no," say s the man, "I can't walk; l$t

the Samaritan. "You aro not going to die.'
1 am going to put you on this beast, and I;
will hold you on till I get you
where you can have a; soft imttranHMH

Now the Samaritan has got tho woundea
man on his feet, and with inucli tugging and
lifting puts him on the lieast, for it is astonishing
how strong the spirit, of kindness will
make one, as you have seen a mother after
three weeks of sleepless w atching of her boy,
down with scarlet rover, lift that half grown
boy, heavier than herself, from eoueh to
lounge. And so this sympathetic ttainaritnn

"You feel bettor now,-1 think," says tho 8u naritan
to the Hebrew. "Yos," ho says, "I
do feel better." "Halloo, you landlord! hei[i
mo carry this mnn in and innko him comfortable."
That night the Samaritan eat up
with the Jew, giving hirn water whenever
he felt thirsty and turning his pillow whenever
it got hotv and in tho morning before
the Samaritan started mi his journey ho
said, "landlord, now I am obliged to go.
Take good care of this man, uaJ 1 will bo

that December noou we sat under
^^ dow of the tavern whero this scene of
pH^^iad occurred, and just having passed
JjaEng tho road where the tragedy haa happened,
I could, su plainly as I now see the
nearest man to this platform, see that Hihie
story re-enacted, and I said aloud to our
group, under tho touts -'One drop of prao

1 saw In Lomioii the vast procession which
one day last January moved to 86. Paul's
Cathedral at the burial of that Christian
hero Lord Napier. Tho day after at Ha warden,
in conversation on various themes, I
usked Mr. Gladstone if be did not think that
many who wen under the shadow of false
religions might not nevertheless lie at heart
really Christian. Mr. Gladstone replied:
"Yes; my old friend Lord Napier, who was
yester<lny buried, ufter ho returned from his
Abyssinian campaign, visited us hero at
Ilawardeu, ami walking in this park where
wo are now walking be told me n very beautiful
Incident. Ho said: "After tho war in
i Africa was over we wore on tho march, and
wo had a soldier with a broken leg
who was not strong enough to co along
with us and wo did not <laro to leave
him to bo takeu care of by savages, but we
found we were compelled to leave him, and
we went into the house of a woman who w as
said to boa very kind woman, though of the
race of savages and wo said, "Here Is
a sick man, and If you will take care
of him till he gets wed we will pay
you very largely," and then we offered
I..... A.... ?i,....... Ilw.l ivl,i..|, w?iil,<
narily bo offered, hoping by tho excess of
pay to secure for him grout kindness. The
woman replied: "I will not take care of him
for the money you otlVr. 1 do not want your
money. Hut leave him here, and 1 will take
care of him for the wtko of tho lovo of
God."'" Mr. Gladstono turned to uie and
said, "Dr. Talmnge, don't you think that
though she belonged to a race of savages that
was pure religion;'" Aud 1 answered, "Ido;
i I do." May God multiply all tho world over
the number of good Samaritans!
In Philadelphia a young woman was dying.
Sho was a wreck. Sunken into the dopths
of depravity, th>ro was no lower depth for
her to reach. Word eamo to the midnight
mission that she was dying in a haunt of
inhiuity near by. Who would go to tell her
of the Christ or Mary Magdalen? This one
refused ami that one refused, saying, "I
dare not go there." A Christian woman,
Iter white locks typical of her purity of soul,
said, "i w.n go, and 1 will go now." Sh
went and sat (town hy tho dying girl and told
of Christ who earn < to seek and save thut
which was lost. First to the forlorn one
eamo tho tears of rejientaiico. and
then the smil", as though sho had
begun to ho.'o for tho pardon of Hint

As Jericho was surrounded by poor

So let our earth be surrounded seven days
by (rood goepel music, aud the round nlanet

could stand the mlghtv throb of such

I It vyill be the last reverberation,
when tho archangel's trumpet shall wake

now tegted to comfort and bless and arouse

While our evening meal is being prepared
in tho touts we wait out for a moment to
the "Fountain of Ellxha," tho one into which
tho prophet threw tho salt because tbo
waters were poisonous And bitter, and loj
they became sweet and healthy; and over
since with gurglo aiul laughter, they have
rushed down tho hill and leaped Croat the
rocks, the only cheerful object m all that
region being these waters. ?
Now on this plain of Jericho tho snn is setting,
making the mountains look like balustrades
and battlements of amber nndm&roon
nml gold; und thomoou, justnbovoChe crest#,
seems to be a wiudow of heaven through
which immortals might be loooking down upon
tho scono. Three Afrabs as watchman sit
beside tho camp fire at tho door of
my tent, their low conversation in
a strango language all night long a
soothing rather tnan nu Interruption.
I had a dream that night nevor to be forgotten,
that dream amid tho complete ruins
of Jericho. Its past grandeur returned, and
1 siiw the city ns it was when Mark Antony
gave it to Cleopatra aud Herod bought ft
lrom her. And 1 heard tho hoofs of its swift
steeds and tho rumbling of its chariots and
tho shouts of excited spectators in its ampbitiieat
re.
And there was white marble amid green
grows of palm and balsam; cold stoue
warmed with sculptured foliage; hard pillArs
cut Into soft lace; Iliads and Odyssoys in
m-anite: basalt lot as tho night mounted bv
carbuncle Burning as the morning; upholstery
dyed us though dipped in the blood ot battle
field5 robes cuerusted with diamond mosaics
white as sea foam flashed on by auroras;
gayeties which tho sun sawbydav rivaled by
revels the moon saw by night; blashpheuiy
built against the sky; ceilings stellar as the
iiiidulglit heavens; grandeurs turreted,
archivolted and intercolumnar; wickednoss
so appalling that established vocabulary fails,
and wo must make an adjective and call it
Hcrodie.
Tho region round about the city walla
seemed to nio white with cotton such as
Thenlus describes as once growing there,
and sweet with sugar cane, and luscious with
* orange and figs ami pomegranates, and redolent
with such flora as can only grow where
a tropical sun kisses the earth. And the hour
camo back to me when in tin? midst of all
that splendor 1 lore J died, commanding his
sister Salome immediately after his death to
secure the assassination of all the chief Jews
whom he had brought to the city and shut
up in n circus for that purpose, and tho nmv<j
came to tho audience in tho theatre as some
one took the stage ami announced to the excited
multitude: "Herod is dead! alerod is
dead!"
Then in ray dream all the pevmp ot
| Jericho vanished, uud gloom was,, waded to
J gloom, and desolation to desolntloiK and woo
to woe, until, perhaps tho ripplint waters
of the fountain of Elisha suggesting it?as
sounds will sometimes give direction to a
dream?I thought that the waters/of Christ's
and utu'leanuess" were rolling thrt>fl]$i' Than'
plain and across tho continent, ahd rolling
round tho earth, until on either side of their
banks all the thorns became flowers, aud
I nil the deserts gardens, and all the
hovels mansions, ahd njl the funerals
bridal processions, and all the blood of
| war was turned into dahlias, and all the
| groans became anthems, and Dante's "In1
ferno" became Dante's "Divlna Commedia,"
| and "Paradise Lost'1 was submerged by
- I ?'p ...r Regained," and tears became
crystals, cruel swords came out of foundries
i glistening plowshares, and in my dream at
i the blast of a trumpet tho prostratod walls
of Jericho rose again.
And some one told mo that as these walls
in Joshua's time at tho sounding trumpeta
of doom went down, now at the sounding
trumpet of the gospel they come up
again. And I thought a man appeared at
tho door of my tent, and I said, "Who are
i you and from whenco have you come?'
i and he said, "1 am tho Samaritau you heard
i of nt the tavern on the road from Jerusalem
i to Jericho, as taking care of tho man
i who fell among thieves, and I have
. just come from healing tho last wound of the
last unfortunate in nil the earth." And I
rose from my pillow in the tent to greet him,
I and my dream broke and I realised^

Do men ever fall in !<** with each other*
Women dot Not * young wotnar
In New Jersey was mamhd to a youthful la
borer on her father's faan>- Sometime afterward
it was diaooveroaR|at the husband wai
a female; the young wiflf refused, however,
though earnestly eutrcuUvi by her friends, to
give up her chosen oousdr*. The strangest
part of the disoovery was |ho fact that the
bride knew her husband ?ya woman befors
she wasted to the altar.
II meu do not exhibit thir strange infatuation
for one of their own fox, they at I?wst
oftentimes give evidence of the fact that they

on record where one ujupai given his life
for another. ThcroSSgHLiy more

tli a tone has saved a procloua human life,
lieridett Conn., is tho ImuM of such a happy
man. John H. Preston, of that city, July
11th, 1890, writes: "Five year* ago I was
taken very sick, I bad severnlof the best doctors.
and oue and all called it a complication
of diseases. 1 was sick four years, taking
prescriptions prescribed by these same doctors,
and I truthfully state I never expected
to got any better. At this time, I commenced
to have the 'most terrible pains in
my back. One day an .old friend of mine,.
Mr. R. T. Cook of the linn of Curtis & Cook,
advised me to try Warner's fc>nfe Cure, ns ho
had been troublod the sumo way and it httd
effected a cure for him. I bough) six bottles,
took the medicine as directed and am to-day
a well man. I am suro no one ever had a
worse case of kidney and liver trouble than I
had. Before this I was always against proprietary
medicines but not now, <>h, no."
Friendship expresses itself in very peculiar
ways sometimes; but tho true friend is the
friend in need.

One might think that it wirold bo a
serious infraction to keep up exercise by
such precise methods. But the little
doctor eujoys them, having settled firmly
in theso habits years ago. Philosophic as
he is about death, ho has an eager curiosity

from the end of a twenty-foot spar rigged
to the sido of tho steamer, and extending
at right angles with her, io make tho
actiou of the machine entirely independent
of currents that might be caused by
tho steamer. Tho head of this mechanical'fish
consists of a dolicately made revolving

lowered into tho-water, it turns its head
towurd tho current, and is hold in that
position by the tail, which serves tho purpose
of a rudder. Within the body of
the fish is plaoed delicate machinery,
which registers its revolutions mado by
tho revolving scrow, and tho rapidity of
tho revolutions is transmitted to the
laboratory on tho stepuier by an ingeniously
