I tH**^'-^t?iwuigfcit m ?, rr nar Sunday Schoo THE LESSON FOB ! PREPARED BY DR. Z. T. C( Luke IC: 14. 15, 10-31. The Pharisees, who were very covet '?us. took much offense at Christ's doc trine of wealth. We saw that our Sa viour taught that money was a trust from (Jod and that as Uta stewards, men should use lt to make friends for Christ and do no by using it for the henefit of men. if this doctrine was practically carried out, much less money would bc spent in personal a" grandizement and more in all those ways Which are for the saving, better ment and development of humanity. There would be lisa profita coining io the rich and larger wages to the la borers. Perhaps the landlord's house would not bc so lino, and perhaps the laborer's hoes? would be better. It was a doctrine like thia which the Pharisees ?corned. What they bf Mi-ved in waa wealth used for personal cuse, rower and gio' '. Of" course, arong With tuen ease went the run ot the laborer or slaves who made the wealth and the misery of those whj CLUld get Ito work or who w ?rv um.Ide to work. But the Pharisees did not care for these. He looked on the con dition as a proof that they were suf fering from the displeasures of a righteous Cod, and he looked on tho display of thc rieb. man aa a signal proof of God's favor upon him. It wag to this state of mind that Christ spoke in Hie parable ol' Divis and La ania . ll contains the most terrifflc utterance that wau ever spoken against godless wealth. The parable ia too familiar to need recounting. Two scenes are given, au earthly and an eternal. In the earth ly scene there are brought together great wealth and luxury on the ono side and the most abject poverty on ! the other. According to the popular conception of tbat time this rich man had every I;1, v",. that hr. "as tan ' favorite of heaven and thc poverty o? thc poor man gave proof to all that1 God himself was against him. But in l the eternal scene thera was a change! I Thc poor man had angels to- carry him even to Abraham's bosom. That is, they carried him to the great feast in Paradise and placed bim on tba seat _ or couch of honor at Abraham's side.' And the rich man who has enjoyed such luxury on earth lifted up bis eyes in hell, being in great torment'. He plead that Lazarus be sent to oase his misery somewhat, but he was told tbat his days of ease were over, in the world he had; enjoyed plenty, whll ; Lazarus had his.'hardships, but that now things were' being evened up; besides they were separated by an Im passable gulf-, and neither could como to thc other. The rich man.seoing the hopelessness of, his owp situation, turned h|s thoughts to hi J brothers, bis rich, brothers, who were living, With, whom the cas?' was not yet hope less, but who vperc^livlng in. the error that .bad Rp htlridiul' hito: ?mi? ht* now picada ?Lli??^ahS?^'tfli send Lazarus to them tn. wA*a.?q$m. But he waa told that if thesfe "brothers were not warned and instructed' sufficiently by Moses* laws they ereu?d nbt be con vinced hy one from thc eternal world. Leesons. 1. The parable must not bc pressed too far. lt is only ta figure of speech. It !? not a hietory^ lt lu not a kodak view of the other world. It was made, not seen: and mada.to teach some les sons. The detalloowere shaped so as, to teach those lessons mest powerful ly. For instance, the seeming close ness of the saved and the lost to each other in this parable and the conversa. Hon of Abraham and Dives, were not Intended to teach. I think, that such ils actually the case.in the other world, and that such conversations take place. These details were arranged so as to make powerful things Abra ham said to Dives; and again because. Dives spoke pityingly of his brothers is no Indication that lie was getting batter ir. heart rjr* ? ?"??ta ?H?IWL while come to where God could take him out or Hades. But tbat touch was added in order to bring out the fact that hui brothers already . had enough of that hopeless case if they would hear Moses.fri I 2. The parable)! teaches not what doss happen, hutu what can happen, , that ls so far as tho rich and the poor arc concerned. It does not mean for us to understand that every rich per son has his fate, and that every poor, miserable person.: at death, ls carried to Paradise. The. Pharisees thought that every rich man, because he was rich, had evidenoe<of acceptance with i God; and that groat poverty itself was th ? frown or God. Itt answer to this, our Saviour, pictures to himself Ute two classes that stand before God and , he draws the picture with tts two j ttC?il?o lu both WOtius BO mS to brl?g out the reality In contrast to apnear - ancj. The world) ls the appearance. , The scene in the other world shows the reality of how the two ran ?land before God. Now how thia or that rich or poor man do e stand before God , is another Question. Many a rich man goes to beaven when he dies. Ab raham waa an immensely rich man, ' i and we see from.Anis parable that he i was In Paradise. ; M But riches do not commend a man . ta God and are not ? necessarily a sign of God's smile. | Poor men can bur lost and it is to be feared that some are lost. a. The parable- teaches what God ! now tn thia pressait wor?d. thinks of the godless rich and the pious poor, \ And if God thinks tht?s of them now, and here. God does nov want men to'j think otherwise of them. No man i who toadies to tito rich or despises the poor thinks God's-thoughts after him." ] All leglslstsr** who. want to resister n God's will In goad tm will work to ! im prov .i the Condition ot the poor and , i also, (ir not, why not?) he will legis late as to make luxury a shame. .?. The PEr?b??t brisks, cut sonic i things that CbHei certainly believed ' i about Eternity and Gie other world. I These for Instance. (1. Aneen come : for those who are his and bear them ? (AT 17, IUI4. )DY IN HAITI ST COURIER i to their home; (2) Men immediately after death enter into joy or Borrow; lhere is no Hleep until the resurrection (3) That the wicked KO into unbear able punishment ; (4) That there is change for the bett ;r possible for those who are lost; (5) That life and and this life alone is the time for repentance; (6) That Cod has done all that ia necessary here and now to lead men to repentance and If men re ject Moses, and now, Christ, his cross, his gospel and his church, it is not possible to arouse them; they would not repent if the dead arose and told them .,, do so; and (7) There ia no such place as Pergatory. .">. Our Soviour recognizes in th?sa parable? the principles of compensa tion. Eternity will even up the in equalities of time. This principle has, been sneer ed at, but it can stand more than sneers so long as it cnn point to his endorsement. 6. There lu certainly that In this parable that warns men against rest ing in luxury anU wealth. Such a state has th-? power of deceiving a man so completely that thc gospel it self cannot get any sense in his heart. 7. Charities become fixed and in eternity this fixity of character is un changeable. No man will ever cross over the gulf between him and they other, whether that other be above or below. FURTHER DETAILS OF THE LAURENS TRAGEDY Col. Cannon Waa Representing a Young La?y Schooi Teacher In Magistrate's Court It was Jos. C. Sullivan und not "Jas G" who killed J no. M Cannon In Laurens County Tuesday. Tho- men are of different families. Jas. G. Sul livan ls a son of Jared D. and is ona who is known In Anderson a fuller a*c. count of thc tragedy 'a found in the following dispatch fren Laurens. Laurens, May Li.-Just after he had concluded u upcech in Magistrate Hel. liam's court at Gray Court shortly be fore 2 o'clock this afternoon John M. Cannon, a prominent attorney of thc Laurens bar and one of the best known citizens of the county and State was shot and almost instantly killed by Joseph G. Sullivan, son of Thomas J. Sullivan, and a prominent young farmer of;the Tumbling Shoals section. Mr. Cannon was shot five times, four Of the bullets penetrating his body and the fifth piercing his arm pear the el bow. One of the bullets struck a-by stander. . "Archie' . - wm*--passing through his leg near the ankle.: Sul livan was brought to lair soon after tho shooting. When seen by news paper representatives he declined to make any statement, saying that he might give out something tomorrow. Tho body of Mr. Cannon was brought' bere this afternoon on tbe late train and thc burls! wit! take place tomorrow. Thc tragedy grew out of a case brought in the magistrate's court by Mii:s Maude Sharp, teacher of the Mt. Bethel hchool in Sullivan township, against Humbert Sullivan, aged 18, a pupil of Miss Sharp and a brother of Joseph G. Sullivan, the slayer of Col. Cannon. Humbert Sullivan waa charged with common assault, using profane lan guage in a public place and commit ting depred >tions on the property of the school L- illdtng several weeks ago. Col. Cannon was employed by M<ss Sharp to prosecute thc case. A change ~ ?2 *hA tx/m a AKialnn/1 and tho trial came up for a bearing today before Magistrate Hellaras of Dials township. W. R. FJchey, Sr.. of the Laurens har > represented tbe defendant. A number of witnesses for both sides, testified, including a sister of tho . defendant, \fter ascertaining that Miss Sullivan vas. a' sister of the-defend ant. Mr. Cannon, ls said to haye asked helvto "come down." Exception was taken to thia by opposing 'counsel and Mr.- Cannon disclaimed any intention of reflecting on whatever ehe might have testified to. Thus the Incident ended. Mr. Cannon made the opening and closing arguments ami is said.to have excoriated the conduct of the young defendant In no uncertain terms. When the jury flied'out of the.de pot omce, where the trial was held, Mr. Csnnon stepped out into the de pot yard. He was approached hy a patron of the school who complained that the attorney had ia his,speeches reflected on the character of his son, om of the principal witnesses for the defense. Cannon ls said to have re plied that he sought only to bring out the trath .and had no apologies to make, whereupon Mr.. Wood, the patron, turned away, saying he want ed an apology or. trouble. At this instant, it appears. Joseph, G. Sullivan took up the toKtusv and told Mr. Cannon that he had disgraced ' bis brother and the Sullivan family, and ' '.hat Mr. Cannon made certain derogatory statements '.'bowing they. were Hep. Mr. Cannon resented thia and struck Sullivan on the head with a cane which he had used since his leg was broken several. m?sths agc. bi a railway accident.
