I Wahbinoton, D. C.?At n time when the 1 whole country Is in controversy us never 1 before concerning tlio theater and some plays uro being arrested by the police and 1 others are being patronized by Christian poople this sermon of Dr^Tnlmngo is of ] much interest. The text is I Corinthians , vil., 81, "They that use this world us not ] abusing it." I My reason for preaching this discourse is < that I havo been kindly invited by two of the lending newspapers of this country to 1 inspect and report on two of the popular ' i>iu}3 vji inn uuy?10 ku buuiu wrens ago i<> Chicago and see the drama "(Juo Vailis" 1 and criticise it with res poet to its moral of- I foct and to go to Now York and seo tlio drama "Bon-IIur" and write mv opinion of ' it for puldlc use. Instead or doing Hint I I propose in a sermon to discuss wliat wo 1 shall do with the dramatic element which 1 God has implanted In many of our natures ' ?not in ton or 100 or 1000, but In the vnst I majority of the human race. Homo people i speak of the drama as though it were 1 something built up outside of ourselves by i the Cougreves and the Goldsmiths and tho Shukospearos nnd tlio Slieridans of i literature and that then we attune our 1 tastes to correspond with human inveu- 1 tions. Not at all. The drama is an echo ' from tho fooling which God lias implanted in our Immortal souls. It is seen lirst In the domestic circle umoug tho children three i or four years of age playing witli their dolls and their cradles and their carts, seen 1 ten years after iu ttio playhouses of wood, 1 tea years after in tlie parlor charades, after that in tlie elaborate impersonations in tlio ! academies of music. Thespls and .Esehy- I lus and Sophocles and Euripides merely 1 dramatized what was la the Greek heart; i Terence and Plautus and Seneca merely dramatized what was in tho Human heart; ] Congreve and Fur<|tihur merely dramatized ! what was in tho English heart; Kaeine, Goruclllo and Allleri only dramatized what \ was in the French and Italian heart; Shakespeare only dramatized what was in tho great world's heart. Tho dithyrambio and classic drama, tlie sentimental drama, tho romnutio drama, were merely oehoos of tlie human soul. I do not speak of the drama on tin* poetic 1 shelf or of the drama In the playhouse, hut 1 speak of the dramatic element in your soul ami mine. We make men responsible for it. They are not responsible. They urn 1->'?>|iuiibiiiiu luriuu perversion ot 11, out noi for tho original implantation. (led did thai work, and I eupposo Ho know what Ho 1 whh about wliou llo made us. Wo are ' uenrly nil inovoil by tbospectacular. When on Thanksgiving Day wo decorate our churches with thocottou anil tho rice ami tho apples anil the wheat ami tho rye ami tho oats, our gratitude to God i 1 stirred; when on Easter morning we see written in letters of llowors tho inscription. "Ho Is Hlsen," our emotions are stirred. Every parent likes to go to the school exhibition, with its recitations and its dialogues ami its droll costumes. Tho torchlight pro- 1 cession of tho political campaign is merely the dramatization of principles involved, i No intelligent man can look in any secular or religious direction without finding this dramatic element revealing, unrolling, demonstrating itself. What shall wo do with It? Shall we suppress it? You enn as easily 1 suppress its Creator. You may direct it, you may educate it. you may purify if, i you may harness it to inuiti-poteut useful- J uoss, and that it is your duty to do, just as wo cultivate taste for the beautiful ami sublime. Now, I have to toll you not only that God 1 tins implanted this dramatic element in 1 our natures, but I hnvo to tell you in the 1 Scriptures lie cultivates It, He appeals to it, 1 He develops it. I do not cure where you 1 open the Hible, your eye will fall upon a drama. Hero it is in the book of Judges, 1 tho fir tree, the vine, tho olivo tree, the I bramble?they all make speeches. Then at ' tho closo of the scone there Is n corona- ' tlcn, and the bramble Is proclaimed king. 1 That Is a political drama. Hero it is in ' the book of Job.

Mugulil- < coat drama la the book of Job. Iloro it Is in Solomon's Song?tbo region, ' an oriental region: Vineyards, pomogrn- j ualoa, mountain of myrrh, flock of sheep, ' garden of spices, a wooing, a brido, a bride- ! groom, dialogue after dialogue?Intense, > gorgeous, all suggestive drama is the book ' of Solomon's Song. Here it Is In the book 1 of Luke: (lostly mansion in tbo night. All I the widdows bright with illumination. The < floor n-qunko with the dance. Returned 1 son in costly garments which do not very 1 well lit him perhaps, for they wero not 1 j made for him. but be must swiftly loavo off bis old garb niul prepnre for this extemporized levee. Touting son nt tbo back door, too mad to go in, bocuuso they are making such a fuss. Tears of sympathy rupniug down the old man's cheek at the story of his son's wandering and suffering nnd tears of joy at his return. When you heard Murdock recite "The Prodigal San" in one of his readings, you did not know whether to sob or shout. Revivals of religion have started just under the reading tx tuni houi ruTuiunouiEiag uruma 01 tub Prodigal Son." Hero it in In the book of Revelation ? crystalline son, pearly gale, opaline river, amethystine capstone, showering coronets, one vitil poured out lueardtnating tlio waters, onvnlrynien of heaven galloping on while horses, nations In doxology, halleluiahs to tlio right of thoni. halleluiahs to the left of them. A* tho lSihlo opens with the drama of the llrst paradise, so it closes with the <iratna of tho second pnriidi?o. Mind you, when 1 say drama I do not mean myth or fable, for my theology is of the oldest type?500 years old, thousands or years old, as old as the Dilde. When 1 speak of the drama at tho beginning and close of tho Rible, I do not mean an allegory, hut 1 mean the truth so stated that In grouping and in startling effect it is a God given, worltl resounding, lieavou echoing drama. Now, if God implanted this dramatic element in our natures, and if He has cultivated and developed it In the Scriptures, I demand that you recognize it. Recau.se the drama has again nnd again heen degraded and employed for destructive purposes la nothing agalu-t the dr.una my inore than music ought to he accursed because It has been taken again and again Into tho saturnallnn wassails of 4100 years. Will you refuse to enthrone music on the church organ because the urt has bran trampled again and again under the feet of the lascivious dance? It Is nothing against painting and sculpture that In Corinth and Herculnneum they were demonstrative of vulgarity and turpitude. The dreadful museum at Pompeii shall throw no discredit on Powera's "Greek Slave" or Church's "Heart n f IKa A ??.1 ?? '" o" IJ .? I ~ .'Si ? scent From the Cross" or Angolo's "l.a!<t Judgment." Tho very fact tlint again Hint again the drama has been dragged through tho newer* of iniquity in tho reason wliy wo should snatch it u|> And start it out on a grand and a holy un<1 a magnificent mission. Let mo say at this point in my lermon that ttie drama will never he lifted to its rightful sphere by those people who have not sense enough to distinguish between tho drama a .id ttio playhouse, Tho ilrnrna Is no more the theatre than a hymnbook Is a eliureh. I niu not speaking in regard to tho theatre at ail. Tiie drama I* a literary expression of that feeling whleh Cod Implanted In tho hvmun soul. Neither will tho drama ever lie lifted to Its proper sphere by wholesale denunciation of nU drumutists. If you have not known men r am ? n i>mi Minn i???II ?i i < hi nn?l womon connected with the dramii whe J are pure in heart and pure In speech and pure tn ItTe, It is because you have not had very wide acnuuintance. Wholesale denunciation or nil dramatists will never elovato the drama. Youdoi stand n church and a theatre on opposite sides of the street. The church shouts over to the theatre, "You are ail scoundrels!" The theatreahouts back, "You are all hypocrites!" And they both falsify. Dropping ! nil Indiscriminate jeremiads against dra- j mutists and realizing that ti%e drama is not ! necessarily connected with t la Is institution ! or with that, I wuut to show you how tiie | dramatic element in our natures iiiav be : harnessed to the chariot of civilization and i Christianity. Fifty essays ahout the sorrows of the i poor could not affect mo as a little drama 1 of accident and suffering I saw one slip- i pory morning in the streets of l'hiludel- 1 phia. Just ahead of me was n 1ml i imI in apparel, ills limb amputated ?t the ! knee; from the pallor of tins boy's cheek, the amputation not long before. Ho had I 11 package of broken foo?l under his arm ? rood h? bad begged, 1 suppose, at the \ doors. As he passed on over the slippery pavomout, cautiously and carofully, 1 steadied lilm uutll his crutch slipped and \ ho fell. I helped him up as well as 1 could, gathered up the fragments of the package i\s well as I could, put tlieni under ouo urm and tin* crutch under the other arm, but when 1 saw the blood run down his j palo cheek I burst into tears. Fitly essays about tho sufferings of the poor could not touch one like that little drama of accident and suffering. Oh. we want in nil our different departments of usefulness more of the dramatic nlemout and ic*s of t io didaetl*. The 1 tendency in this day is to drone religion, to whine religion, to cant religion, to moan j religion, to croak religion, to sepuleharize religion, when we ought to preseut it in animated and spectacular manner. What we want, mituslors and laymen, is to get our sermons and our exhortations and our prayers out of tiio old rut. The old | hackneyed religious phrases that come snoring down through the centuries will never arrest tho masses. What wo want to-day, you In your sphere, ami 1 in my sphere, is to freshen un. lVonin ?lo nor want in tlii'ir sermons the sham (lowers bought i\t the millinery shop, but tho jnponlcas w??t with tho morning dew. not tho heavy bones of extinct megatherium of past ages, hut tho living reimlcor caught last August at tho edgo of Sehroou l.ake. Wo want to drive out the drowsy and tho prosaic and the tedious and the humdrum and introduce tho brightness ami tin? | vivacity and the holy sarcasm and the ?naotlllod wit and tho epigrammatic power and the Idood red earne-i ness and the lire of religious zeal, and I do not know of any way ot doing it as well as through tho dramatic. Hut now let us turn to the drama aa at: I amusement ami entertainment. llev. I)r. llollovv.-, of New York, many years ago in a very brilliant but much criticised sermon took I lie position that tho theater might lie renovated ami made auxiliary to tho church. Mutiv Christian people are of the same opinion, 1 do not agree with them. I have no idea that success is In that direction. What 1 have said j heretofore on this subject, tis far as i can remember, is my sentiment now. but today I take a step ia advance of my former theory. Christianity is going to take full ! possession of tills world and control its 1 maxims, its laws, its literature, its science i anil its amusements. Shut out from the | realm of Christianity anything and you give it up to sin and death. If Christianity i< mighty enough to f manage everything but the amusements of I lie world, then it is a very defective Chris iiuimy. is it capable of keeping account of t ho tears of the world ami incompetent to make record of its smiles? Is ft good to follow the funeral, bat dumb at the world's play? Can It control all the other elements >f oar nature but the dramatic element? My idea of Christianity is that It can and will conquer everything. Now. what wo want is'to hasten that : time. How will it be done? Hy the church | [joins over to tho theater? It will not go. I IJ.v the theater coming to the church? It will not come. What we want is a reformed imnsoment association in every city and tovvu of tho I'aited States. Ouee announced and explained and illustrated, the Christian and philanthropic capitalist will come forward to establish It, nud there will bo public spirited men every where who will do this work for the drnmntl element nf our natures. Wo need a new Institu:ioa to meet and recognize and develop ind defend the dramatic element of our nature. It needs to be dl-tlnet from everything that Is or has boon. 1 would have this reformed amusement nssoelatlon having In charge this now la- I dilution of the spectacular take possession j >f some hall or academy. It might take a mailer building at the start, but it would ooa need the largest hall, and even that would not hold the peoule. for lie who jpons before Iho dramatic element in human nature nu opportunity of grntillea Lion without compromise untl without lunger does the mightiest thing ot this seuturv, nml the titles or such tin institution would rise us the Atluuth' rises ut Liverpool docks. There tire tens of thousand* of Christian homes whole the sons and daughters are hold hack from dramatic outertalnraent for reasons which some of you would say are good reasons and others would say are poor reasons, but still hold bank. Hut on the establishment of snob an Institution they would feel the arrest of their anxieties and would say on the establishment of this new institution, which 1 have called the spectacular, "Thank, God, this Is what wo have nil been waiting for.'' Now, as 1 bolieva that I make suggestion of an institution wnicli wiser men will develop, I want to give some characteristics of lids new Institution, this spectneular, if It is to he a grand social and moral success. In the first place, its entertainments must bo compressed within an hour and three-quarters. What kills sermons, prayers and lectures and entertainments oT nil sorts is prolixity. At a reasonable hour every night every curtain of public entertainment ought to drop, every church service ought to cense, the Instruments ol orchestras ought to t>o unstrung. On t he plat form of this new institution there will heudrnmn which before renderirilinn 1mm* 11 read, expurgated, abbreviated and passed upon l?y a boar<l of trustees aoniinctml with this reformed amusement Association. If there be in n draiua a ceie tenco suggesting evil, it will be strieken out. If t hero be in a Shakespearean plav a word with two meanings a good meaning and a bad moaning -another word will he substituted, an honest word looking only way. The caterers to public taste will liavo to learn that Shakespearean Hastiness is no better than t'ongrevenu Dustiness. You say, "Who will dure to change by expurgation or abbreviation a Shakespearean play?" I dare. The board of trustees of this reformed amusement association will dare. It is no depreciation of a drama, tlie abbreviation of it. I would like to hear thirty or forty pnges of Milton's "Paradise Lost" read at one time, hut I should be very sorry te hear tho whole book rend at one sitting* Abbreviation Is not depreciation. On tho platform of this new lustitiition this spectacular, under the care of the very best men and women In the community, there shall bo nothing witnessed that would be unlit for n parlor. Any attitude, any look, any word that would ofTend you seated at vour own fireside, in your family circle, will bo prohibited from that platform. Ity what law of commou sonso or of mora'lty does that which Is not fit to bo seen or hoard by live people become lit to be seen or heard by 1500 people? On tlio platform of that spectacular all tho scenes of the ilrnina will b < as chaste as was ever a lecture by Kd ward Everett or a sermon by K. W. Robertson. On that platform there shall he no cnrou'.er, no Inebriate, no cyprlnn, no foe of good morals, masculine or femlufao. London's Crystal Palace Is to hnve a new glass roof. ? v , ... A BOYS ^no BECAME FAMOTTB. A Swedish boy fell out of a window fend was picked up severely hurt, but with tightened lips, lie kept back the cry of pain. King Qustavus Adolphus, who saw the accident, prophesied that the boy who bud such self control would make a uian for emergencies. He was right, for the lad became the famous General Hauer. Au Italian woman foil into a dock and would have been drowned but for tho courage of a boy who sprang in after her and managed *> keep her alloat till a boat came to the rescue. The spectators admire*. the boy's promptness anil kiudness of lieart, , hut commented on his recklessness, I which, they said, might have cost ! him his lite. This boy was Garibaldi, and in con- j sidering his life one finds that tkeso were his characteristics all through. He was so alert that tio one could ; tell when he would make an attack , with his red shirted soldiers, so brave and magnanimous that the world rang with his praises, and w ithal so indis- ] I creet as to make his follow patriots j wish ho were in Guinea. A little boy used to crush flowers I to obtain their color, and would then I paint all sorts of pictures on the white ; walls of his father's cottage in the j Tyrol.

Tn days when superstition was more prevalent than it is now, the shape itnl appearance of the linger nails were considered to have reference to one's destiny. To learn the* message of the linger nails it was necessary to rnl> tlietn over with a compound of , wax ami soot, and then to hold them I : so that the sunlight fell fully on them, j ! Then on the horny, transparent suh j stance certain signs and characters i were supposed to appear, from which , 1 the future could lie interpreted. Persons, too. having certain kinds of nails were credited with the possession J of certain characteristics. Thus a man ] with red and spotted nails was sup [ poscil to have a hot temper, while pule, lead colored nails were considered to !
