Mary have wor dered at the process by which it has come to pas and for the first time in pubic place . state the three causes. M ny yeti-s ago a young man who has since be come eminent in his p ,ession w =s studying law in a distant city. H came to me and said that 'or lack of funds he mu-t stop hib s'udyi g un less through stenography I woaic g re him sketches of sermons, that he might by the sale of them secure means for the completion of his ea:: cation. I positively ec'icid, because it seemed to me an impcssibility, but after some months had rassed, and I had reflected upon th great sadness for such a brilliant young ran to b: defeated in his ambition f r the legal prcfession, I undertook to serve him. of course free of charge. Witbin three weeks there came a rE quest fir those stenographic reports from many parts of the continent. Time passed on, and some gentle men of my own profession, eviaently thinking that there was hardly room for them and for myself in this conti nent, began to assail me, and became so violent in their assault that the chief newspapers of America pu spec W1 correspondents in my church Sab bath by Sabbath to take down such reply as I might make. I never made reply, except once for about threek minutes, but those correspondents could not waste their tizeand so they telegraphed the sermons to their par ticular papers. A ier awhile Dr. Louis Klopsch of New York systematized the work into a syndicate until! through that and other syndicates he has put the discourses week 'y week' before more than 20.000,000 people on both sides the sea. There have been so many guesses on this subject. many of them inaccurate, that I now tell the true story. I have not improved the opportunity as I ought, but I feel that the time has come when as a mat.er of common justice to the :iewspiper press I should make this statement in a sermon commemorative of the two thousandth full publication of s. mons and religious addresses, saying nothing oi fragmentary reports,whichi would run up into many thousands1 There was one incident that I mrjiht mention in this connection, showing how an insignificant event might in-I fiunoe us for a Aife time. Many ye are ago on aSabbath moorning on my way to church in Brooklyn a representa tive of a promnent newspap:er met. me and said, "Are you going to pie us any points today?" I said, "What do you mean by points?" He rephied. "Anything we can remember." I said to myself, "We ought to be mak ing 'points' all the time in our pulpits and not deal in platitudes and inani ties." That one interrogation put to me that morning started in me the desire of making points all the time and nothiing but points. And now how can I more appropri ately commemorate the two thous andth publication than by speakir g of the newspaper press as an ally of teppit and mentioning some of the trals' of newspaper men? The newspaper is the great educatorI of the nineteenth century. There is no force compared with it. It is bvak, pulpit, platform, forum, all in one. And there is not an intem est, r-ehgiou~s literary, commercial, scienatiac, agri cultural or mecuanical-that is not within its grasp. All our churches and schools and colleges and asyliums and art galleries feel the quaking ofI the printing press. The institution of newspapers arose in Italy. In Venice the first naewspa per was published, and monthly, dar ing the time Venice was warring against Solyman 11 in Dalmasia, it was printed for the purpose of giving military and commercial informationi to the Venetians. The first newspaper published in England was in 1588 and calld The English Mercury. Who can esimate the political, scientific, commercial and religious revolutions roused up in England for many years past by the press? The first attempt at this institution in France was in 1631, by a physician, who published The Ne-s, for the amusement and health of his patients. The French nation understood f al:y how to appreciate this power. SJ earlyi as in 1820 thei-e were in. Paris 169 jtournals. But in the United States the newspaper has come to unlimited sway. Though in 1775 there were but 37 in the whole country, the number of published journals is now counted by thousands, and today-:-we may as well acknowledge it as not-the reli gious and secular newspapers are the great educators of the country. But, alas, through what struggle the newspaper has come to its present de velopment. Just as soon as it began to demonstrate its power superstition and tyranny shackled it. There is nothing that despotismn so much fears and hates as the printing press. A great writer in the south of Earope declared that the king of Nap:es had made .it unnae for hitn to writ~e o any subject save natural history. Austria could not bear Kussuth's jimr nalistic pen pleading for the 2edeep. tion of Hungary. Napoleon I, wani. ing to keep his iron heel on the neck of nations, said that the new~spaper was the regent of kings and the only safe place to keep an editor was la. prison. Bai the great bat le for the freedom cf the press was fought in theI courtrooms o. England and tae ULIea States before Alis cenury began, s.he .i Hamilton made his gre:ot speech in behalf of the freedom of J.

There are only two kinds of news papers-the one gozed, very good, the other bad, very bai A newspaper may be started with en undtcided I character, but after it has been going on for years everybody finds out just what it is, atd i- is very good or ,t :s very good. or it is very cad. The one paper is the embodiment of news, the ally of virtue. th' foe of crime, the defectation of elevated taste, the mightiest agency on earth for making the world better. The other paper is brigand anong moral forces; it is a beslimrer of reputation, it is the right arm of death and hell, it is the mightiest agency in the universe for making the world woree and battling against the cause of God, the one an angel of intelligence and mercy the other a fieLd of darkness. Between this archangel and this fury to be fought the great battle which is To decide the fate:of the -'-orld. if you have any doubt as to whic'i is to be victor, ask the prcphecies, a- t: God; the chief batteries with which he would vindi cate the right, and thunder down the wrong are now unlimbered. The great Armageddon of the nations is not to be fought with swords, but with steel pens: :ot wiih bullets, but with ty ce; not with cannon, but withI ightutng perfectinz presses, and the Sumters, and the Moalitries, and tn. Pulaskis, and t 2e Gibralta:s of that connfict will be the editorial and re porortal rooms of our great newspa per establishments. Mer of the press, God has put a more stupendcus re sposibility upon you than upon any other class of persons. What lcng strides your profession has made ia ;nfluence and power since the day wer Peter Sheffer invented cm :uetl type, and becaause two books were found just alike they were as cribed so the work of the devil, and boc.as we-t" p:in ed oi stin. of barc boo, and Rev. Jesse Glover originated the first American pri?nting press, a'~d the e.mm~?on courncil of New~ YoA., in solemn resoilu ion. cif d $200 to any printer who would come there and Aive,:and when the spraker of thle hzuse of paria~me 't in Engl&Ad :nnounced with indigaation tna; the oublic prints had recngnized-some of their dons and until irs this day when we have in this country many newspepers sending out cipies by the tillion, The press and the telegraph have gore do~vn into the same great harvest field to reap, and the ielegrapti says to the newsparer, 'Tll rake, while you bind,"and the iron teetnt o the telegrap.. are set down at one end of the harvest find an d drawn clean cross, and toe newspaper gather up the sheaves, setting down one sheaf on the bresakfast table in the share of a morning n-ewspaper, and putting down an~orlher shear on the tea tabie in the snaps3 of an evening newspaper and that man that neither takes nor reads a newpaper would be a curiosi ty. What vast progress since tha da ys wren Cairdinal Wolsey declared that either the printing press must go down. or the church of God must go down to this time, when the printing press and the pulait are in hundreds "f glorious combination and alliance. One nf the great tri-ds of this news paper professicn is the fact that they are compelled to see more of the sham e th world than any other pro'es sion. 'Ihrough every newspaper office day by dia:., go the weakness of the~ wrlE, the vanities that want to be used, th-e revenges t bat want to be 'reaked, all the mistates that want to be corrected, all the dull speakers who want to be thought eloquent, all the meanness wants to get its wares noticed gratis in the editorial colums' in order to save the tax of the adver tising column, all the men who want to be set right who never was right, al the crack brained phphers, with story as long as their hair and as gloomy as th.eir flager nail, all the itinerant bores wno come to star five minutes and stop an hour. From the editorial and renortorial rooms all the follies and shams of the world are seen day by day, and the temptation is to believe neither in God, man, nor woman. It is no surprise to me that i:. your profession there are some skeptical men. I only wonder tnat you believe anything. Unless an editor or a reporter has in his pre:*n: or in his early home a model of earn est charac;- r, or he throw himself upon the upholding grace of God, he may make temnporal and eternal ship wreck: Another great trial of the newspa~per profession is inadequite comnpeneatioa Since t he days tnf Ba zli.t and Saeric an ad John Milto'i and the waiiings of Gu street, London, literary toil, with very few exetions. has not be en poperiy rcqwaed.

[1 you .hould gather all the editors and the reporters of til:s country in one great convention, and ask of them what 'ird of a paper they would pr: fer toptubiish, I believe they would unanimously say, "We would prefer to puilish an elevating paper." So long as there is an iniquitous demand thece will be an iniquitous supply. I make no apology for a debauched rewsptper, but I am saying the e things in order to divide the responsi bility between those who print and these rho read. Another trial of this profession is the fact no one seems to c.are for their souls. They feel bitterly about it, though they Jauzh.

Oh, men of the r.two paper press you sometimes get siek of this world, it seems so hollow and un satsfy ing! If there are any people in al tae earth that need God, you are the men, and you shall have him if only this day you implore his mercy. A man was found at the foot of aal street, New York. As they picked him up from the water anc brought him to th? n orgue they sa's b-r the contour of his f.orehead tha'. he bad mental capacity. He had enterc d the newspiper profession. He had gone do vn in health. He took to ariicial s'imutlas.

As wesaid abov ward was a brother in-taw of Hungerpiller, having marri-d ris sisterseveral years ago Howarditd o)nthe place for werly o ned by Hungeroiller's father wnich he had bou.;ht. O the night of thbe as assination Howard was si: tr? d.,-cu :n is nous- win his fa-ni 1; coavers'ng, when i.e heard some o.:- cmre up the steps, and, suspecting no arm, opeced tne door to see who t- visior .s. Immediately he was 1i e:1 oa, the whole load of shot taking iriect in his left breast, completely riddffr g his heart. The shot use.i was No. 4, shot, and the fact thst they did not scatter much shows that the cowardly assassin was very near his victim when the shot was fire0. Hungerpiller was suspici oned at once, and his arrest folio wed. He made a statem-ut at the i. quest to the effect that he was about one hun dred and fifty yards from Howard's house when he saw a flash snd heard the r-port of the gun. He bailed tne people in the house as soon as he could get near enough and askeu what they were cryiuz about, and was told that Howara had been shot. He then ran and told his brother, who lived a short distance from the dead man. Hungerdiitr says when thu shot was dred ne saw a _%agoa driving along the roaa about one hundred yards boyond Howard's hcuse, but he did not see any one leave the yard No cne believes Hur:gerpiller's story an:: every one belives him to be the das'a -dly sssassia.

Pearson, H. B. Collier, a J. Cau-.oa, J. B. Stro man and H. E. Bjsuver. Mr. How ard was a nati re of North Carolina and hd lived in tois cotinty atout eigh; years. He was about forty-five y ears of age, r.nd iwas well thought of by his nei n bors. A numrber of people went out from Orsagebarg to the scene of the mur oer, and never did their eyes fall up on a sadd dr or more gruesome specta cle. Ly ing on the floor, just as he [fell, was the murdered man, his wife prostrated with grief, and a number of children too young to realize the sad situation, were standing around tine dead body gazing upon it in be wilderedi a-aazement. The scene was heart-rending. Tne Orangeburg correspondent of of the Columnbia Rsgister gives the following account of the terrible cricie: La rence, H. Hungerpiller is a youtg ma'~n about 23 years of age, who nas figured in previous diffi cuaties, having shoL a negro severely only a'oout two mon-hs ago. He is regatrded as utterly wortnless, witnout i' incip.e, and dangerous when arous ed. S3ome time lsst su'nmer Howard bo'uabt Hu.'gerp:ller's interest in the oid Haoserpier homestead; but the y'.ung man remained there, making H~oward's mis home. About a month aao Howard told him that he must either go to wark or move nis lodging. Tais incensed H~ungerpiLner, who swore vengeance against Howard, even goiug wita his gun to Howara's difcd ozy a fe v dsys ago and there i reatened to kill him but did not. List ightI the poor man was called * .m his house and brutally shot down line a dog. Hungerpiller's own story convinced the coroner's jury of his own gudlt. He admitted seig out with his gun inte Saturday atiernoon, out eauiu he was hu-atiig birds. It was finally pumped Iro-.n hun that he had only so sueils wah? him a rather small sup pily otamnuniunu for the sport of bird iuning.

The con pany was capitalized at. S1.000,004). and soi: assets eonsist4ed of articles of in corporation. otice furniture, and a pro moyt er. This umya. seem a high inventory V:Liue or a promoter, but a good one is worth it. and this man certainly had his work cut out for hin-.. With an enmpty treasury. it. became necessary to reverse the rule obtaining in similar engineering operations ofbe ginning at the head of the works. and to secure tirs.t the land, secondly the set tIers, and lastly the water. The lands included in this proposition were in use as grain fields and sheep ranges, and as such were valued at but a few dol Iars per acre. Withwaterfcr :rrigation, they could be sulbdivided into ten-acre fruit farms and sold for 20-fold their present value. The problem before the nromoter was to buy these lands with out money, to sell them without water, and to get rich from a, commission. of 15 per cent. The company's problem was to build the irrigation works out. of the proceeds of land sales, and to pan for the land later from money received for water tlls- The promoter's instruc tions were Biblical: "What thou hast to do, do quickly." But on long time, sell for cash or good paper. The opera tion was to be equivalent- to kiting checks on a grand scale. If they suc ceeded. they were financiers; if they failed. scamps. "Fail?" quoth the promoter. "Itisn't on the cards. Within two years we shall have every ten-acre tract. sold and im proved; in five years we shall be ship ping fruit by the train load. It is the chance of a lifetime to secure, at nomi 1.d cost, a home in the citrus belt." In one of the hot interior valleys of California, on a still June morning, a vast field of ripe barley spread out on a rol-ling plain, at the base of the butte, like a great. copper-colored' blanket. It was as though the towering mountain had risen suddenly from sleep and flung aside hs covering. A harvesting ma chine. itself well proportioned to the largeness of the task, moved slowly along the margin of the grain field, un raveling the blanket in strips 20 feet wide. This modern evolution of the sickleandtheflail cutthegrain.thresed it, put it into sacks, and scattered the straw. Forty mules, eight abreast, tugged and sweated at their task as they dragged the machine upon the long slope. A cloud of protesting locusts in. front, a. dust and chaff cloud followi-ng -these with the four mien of the crew were all the life and all the movement within the prospect. "This is a fine morning-I don't think," said the man at the water-butt,: putting his head into a bucketful. 'Is that brceze never a,-coining? I've seen the sand-augers down the valley for an hour." "Hand me up a can of that stuff and don't get impatient," replied the driver. -"It is only about ten o'clock. You'll have a chance t~o sizzle for an houryet." The machine groaned and lumbered along' to the next corner, where ab.alt gave the kicker a chance to resume: "Say, is this place actually hotter than every other place?" "Oh, I don't know," was the -re jo inder; "but I know you wil'1 think so wherever you happenm to be, in this world or the next onre." "No wonder the old man has sold this ranch for jrast about money enough to oil the machine one season." "What do you mean? I heard eight dollars an acre." "He told me himself that he got only S100 cash and gave two years' time. I reckon he will get the land back. He sold it twice before." "If he does get the land again he'll be out two crops of grain," persisted the. kicker. "Much y-ou know about it," said the driver. "I tell you the old man is a weather sharp. He figures on a couple of dry seasons after this big crop. He will save his seed and rest up the land. get a small payment or two from these fellows, and in about three years we will be cutting him the big gest crop he ever raised, with the mules a-sweating anid you a-kicking at every corner, just like now." "What's the lay, anyhow?" asked the oiler. "'Why, haven't you heard about it?" said the driver; "the game is a big ditch around the side of that butte, and another garden of Eden blossoming ut, right, here where we are standing!" "O! said the oiler. "Oh, the deuce!'' said the kicker. The, promoter wvent to a big eastern ity and opened' an office on a busy treet. Conspicuous signs announced heap and fertile irrigated lands in the golden west. Few in the passing rowds noticed, but many saw, the win ows dressed with tempting fruits. Some entered. the office. Baxter street methods are not available in the real estate business, but once inside his oors our promoter asked odds of no ealer and.' rarely failed of .interesting nd convincing those who -crossed his threshold. His forte was fran-nes. : plump and healthy-looking-man, with othing sinister about him except a abit of looking out at his customers from under half-closed eyelids, he re eved them without. efft'sion and >pened upon them in this manner: "Fruits in the window raised on our ands?

She cried a little'-wcmen are so deficient in enterprise. so fearful of the new and untried-but early autumn saw the plan carried out. It was in the month of September Ihat. Fred Fisher and his wife first saw their California fruit farm. They were ainr the first arrivalsin the new colaoUy. ani the bi; field of tubble still had few other settlers than the wary jaehrahbit and the whistiing quail. A row of w hite flags on laths { showed the line of survev for a canal. and parallel intersecting furrows at regu:ar intervals indicated the streets and avenues. By the aid of the map furnished purchasers our clerk identi fied the "choice" selection which he had made, and knew so little of the re quirements of irrigation that. h:e was rather pleased to find it upon a litrie knoll. Busy days followed: the cabin which was to serve as a dwelling until a more pretentious house should be built from the profits of the orchard was soon put up and occupied. Many otiur new comers were building near them. "When I get o'er my Homesickness It shall like this. Fred," said the wife one day: "that, is. if we can make a living here." "There are twenty ways of doing that," he answered: "and the man said the orchard would be productive in three years." "But the water?' she questioned. "Oh, 'the superintendent is sure the canal will he finished before ::ext sprint*, and he says teat I can have work with the construction force all winter." Two years later the bubble had burst and the canal company was hopeless vinsolvent. It had furnished much work and little pay to Fred and to a hundred other settlers, as unsophisticated as he. I The canal was in-complete: not a drop - of water had ever reached the parched soil upon the little knoll they called their home. Even the customary rainy season had failed them, and the effort to raise a crop of grai: apon their small holding had resulted only in loss of la bor and of seed. The wife had been hopeful and helpful until the baby came to -the cabin for a little time and thence to a. neighboring cemetery. Now she was very ill, and Fred was impover ished. The old farmer had foreclosed on his blanket -mortgage, and already with his gang plows was restoring the big field to its former aspect. The cabins that dotted it .here and there. if not re moved by the settlers. were torn down when the plows reached them, and only ragged board piles and mounds of earth where cellars had been, dug marked their former sites. Fred took his wife to a hospital in the county town and she died there. In a few months the win-terrains will transform all the landscape into fields of living green. Then. out. of the. aban doned colony, the little cellar mounds at, each cabin site will look like sodded graves. Fred is in the Highland asylum. But 'the promoter fares sumptuously every diay.-San Francisco'Argonaut. A 8.ezatioal Story. The Augusta Chronicle says tha' or-te of the most sensational stories that has ever stirred the minds cf the peope of that city developed last Sun day. It is nothing less than the find ing of some writing that indicates that the Highland Park hotel at Aiken was deliberately burned down by some person or persons unknown. The Dhronicle says "the character of the person from whom tbe story w3is earned is too high to allow any sug estion of semaationalism. Indeed, he gentleman, who occupies apromin mt position in Augusta, objected very trongly on this very ground to the tory and his name is withheld for hat very reason. The story is pub lshed not through any alarmist no tions or any wish to be sensational, but because thie thing derives weight Erom thesource whence it comes. The gentleman, about three weeks ago, or *everal days before the hotel burned down, received through the mail a opy of the "Globe" magazine. When Le tore off the wrapper. he was sur prisE d to find it an old number, bear ing date January, 1891, and marke d "sample cony." Thinking that some mistake had been made, he idly turned over the leaves and, finding, them u a cut, he laid the magazine aside. Sun ay, he w'as asked by someone internd ing to leave the city for szmething to read. Ini compliance with this wish he picked up Eeveral magazines, the "lobe" among the numoer. Ooce again he turned the' leaves over ai d a one place, hisatten tion was attracted by sme writing. L->oking again as it he was surprised to read tne following: 'htigtlanid Par-k Hotel will b0 burn ed to th'e groun d on the 6:h de~y of February, 1898. (Skull an d Or oss Bones ) In the corner is a well-eecute d skull and cress-boones, being topped by a has askew on it. In the loo~ri angle formed by the crossing of the bones are tbe letters K. S.

The handwriting is a man's~ slightlyI back handed and clear and distinct.1 It is correctly punctuated. The cir cumstances surrounding the finding preclude any idea cf the thing havmng been written since th e A ogustan .re ceived it. While such a thing is a pcsibiity, a knowledze of the gentle mnan's household makes it highly im probable. In the back of th-- maga zine in the advertising supple-i "ot, the following written in the same~ hand writing and ink, though in b !d-r characters, to be seen at the head of a page: "Mild Mood, Highlar dP ' k" "State Dispensary, Hutel." This is the startling story. What it may mesn oferts too wide a field fr co jecture. What will be the de velpments remains to be seen. The spaniare1 t..r War. According to a y .cial dispatch fron Madrid, reports received from the United States to the effcrtthat pub lic opinion in thi country - cmn more excited owing to the . ma >ression that the loss of the Maine 1., not due to an accident, are "restirring pap-ier feeling there and the conv-etio~n ts ia creasing in ministerial circ e-. th'h worstut be expec t-d.

T7yIDg toDeceive theFerple Mr. Gsje, McKinley's Cleo a.1 )amoc-stic Secretary of the the' rea or is eitrtr a f~ol or a knave. tie tok advantage of an invitation to speak at one of the dnners seo on in coln's birthdsy to again xpl it his naLcid thems.

Turning to page 152 of a book issued by the Treasury hich contains a full history of every loan from June 4, 1770, to July 17, 161, we find a jaw authorizing wne isue of $250,000,000 bonds and also of $60,000,000 Treasury notes, all of wicn liter were issued in 1862. On page 153, we find this statement: The amount of bonds of this loan. ssutd under the authority of the first section of the act of July 17, 1561, was $50,000,000. and the remainder, amounting to $136,321.350 was issued in cxcrange for 7-30's (Treasury oter), as authorized by tne act of August 5, 1861." So insleaa o' $150,000,000 it was only $50,000,000 that -'was subscribed for at par ant paid for in aold" as stated by the Srotary. Now let us see tat the Treasury says about that par" business. The same page tells the story, and it is neither creditable o the bai-kers nor to Secretary Gage. ere it is $41 661.231 91 is cre dited na s cashb received 'and $5,338,768.09 as icount. These associated bankers of ew York, Phi'adelphia and Boston, o whom the Secretary points with pride, charged thie United States nearly leven per cent discount to advance it a pittance while it wvas in the thrces f revolution. But what of Secretary Gage? Can it be conceived that he is so ignorant, as a bar ker even, of the facts? Is i; ossibie that the Secretary, after his long career as a money lender, did not know these facts? The Eecond edition of the back, 'National Loans of the United States," was issued in 1882. All the facts given above were ~rm'.ed in the census of 1880. No ne can come to but one conclusion which is that Secretary Gage in his lind zeal to serve his masters, delib rastely perverted the facts-in plain Eaglish ied. Rcent New York Election.
