BUSINESS AND POLITICS.
Cites the Rxnniple of Daniel, Who
Was Never Too Busy to Worship
t.od—Wholesome AUvIee to “Sun
day” ChrlstimiN—Be Honest In All
ThinKa.
Washington, Nov. 4.—This discourse
of Dr. TaUuage is appropriate for all
seasons, but especially lu these times
jf great political agitation. The text Is
Daniel vi, 1G, “Then the king com
manded, and they brought Daniel and
^ast him into the don of lions.”
Darius w as king of Babylon, and the
young man Daniel was so much a
favorite with him that he made him
prime minister, or secretary of state.
But no man could gain such a high
position without caching the envy and
jealousy of the people. There were
demagogues in Babylon who were so
appreciative of their own abilities that
they were affronted at the elevation of
this young man. Old Babylon was
afraid of young Babylon. The taller
the cedar the more apt it Is to be riven
of the lightning. These demagogues
asked the king to make a decree that
anybody that made a petition to any
one except the king during a period of
30 days should be put to death. King
Darius, not suspecting any foul play,
makes that decree. The demagogues
have accomplished all they want, be
cause they know that no one can keep
Daniel from sending petitions before
God for 30 days.
So far from being afraid. Daniel goes
on with his supplications three times a
day and is found on his house top mak
ing prayer. He is caught in the act. He
is condemned to he devoured by the
lions. Bough executioners of the law
seize him and hasten him to the cav
ern. 1 hear the growl of the wild
beasts, and I see them pawing the
dust, and as they put their mouths to
the ground the solid earth quakes with
their bellowing. I see their eyes roll
and I almost hear the fiery eyeballs
snap in the darkness. These monsters
approach Daniel. They have an appe
tite keen with hunger. With on*?
stroke of their paw or one snatch of
their teeth, they may leave him dead
at the l>ot!om of the cavern. But what
a strange welcome Daniel receives
from these hungry monsters. They
fawn around him, they lick his hand,
they bury his feet in their long manes.
That night he lias calm sleep with his
head pillowed on the warm necks of
the tamed lions.
The Crime of Suecesa.
But not so well does Darius, the
king, sleep, lie has an attack of ter
rific insomnia. , He loves Daniel, and
hates this stratagem by which he has
been condemned. All night long the
king walks the lloor. He cannot sleep.
At the least sound he starts and Ids
flesh creeps with horror. He is im
patient for the drawing of the morn
ing. At the first streak of the daylight
Darius hastens forth to see the fate
of Daniel. The heavy palace doors
open and clang shut long before the
people of the city waken. Darius goes
to the <h u of the lions; he looks in.
All is silent. His heart stops. He
feels that the very worst has hap
pened, but gathering all his strength,
he shouts through the rifts of the
rock, “Oh, Daniel, is thy God whom
thou servest continually able to de
liver thee?” There comes rolling up
from the deep darkness a voice which
says: “Oh, king, live forever. My God
has sent his angel to shut the lions’
mouths that they have not hurt me.”
Tlieu Daniel is brought out from the
den. The demagogues are hurled into
it, and no sooner have they struck the
bottom of the den than their liesh was
rent, and their lioucs cracked and their
blood spurted through the rifts of the
rock, and, us the lions make the rocks
tremble with their roar, they announce
to all ages that while God will defend
his people, the way of the ungodly
shall perish.
Learn first from this subject that the
greatest crime that you commit in the
eyes of many is the crime of success.
What had Daniel done that he should
be flung to the lions? He had become
prime minister. They could not for
give him for that, and behold in that
a touch of unsanctified human nature
us seen In all ages of the world. So
Jong as you are pinched in poverty, so
long as you are running the gantlet
octwecn landlord and taxgatherer. so
long as you find it hard work to edu
cate your children, there are people who
will say, “Poor man, I am sorry for
him; lie ought to succeed, poor man.”
But after awhile the tide turns In your
favor. That was a profitable Invest
ment you made. You bought just at
the right time. Fortune becomes good
humored and smiles upon you. Now
you are in some department success
ful and your success chills some one.
Those men who used to sympathize
with you stand along the street, and
they scowl at you from under the rim
of their hats. You have more money
or more infinened than they have, and
you ought to be scowled at from under
the rim of their hats. You catch a
word or two as you pass by them.
“Stuck up.” says one. “Got It dis-
honestly,” says another. ‘‘Will burst
soon,” says a third. Lvery stone in your
new house is laid on their hearts.
Your horses’ hoofs went over their
nerves. Fvery Item of your success
has been to them an Item of discomfit-
pro and despair. Just as booh ns In
nny resjiect you rise above your fellows.
If jou arc more virtuous, if you are
more wise, if you are more influential,
you cast a shadow on the prospect of
others. The road to honor and success
Is within reach of the enemy’s guns.
Jealousy says, “Stay down or I’ll
kuoek you down." “I do not like
yon," says the snowflake to the snow
bird “Wliv don’t von like me?" said
the snowbird. “Ob,” said the snow
flake, “you are going up and I am com
ing down.” Young merchants, young
lawyers, young doctors, young me
chanics, young artists, young farmers,
at certain times there are those to
sympathize with you, but now that
you are becoming a master of your
pitolcular occupation or profession,
jio\v is it now, young lawyers, young
doctors, young artists, young fanners
- how is It now? The gr-Mie.-.t i-r.iue
that you can commit Is the crime of
success.
Drclstuo «»f tTiurn«*»«-r,
Again, my subject imprei es me with
the vuluo dycl%ion o/ character iq
any department. Daniel knew that If
he continued his adherence to the re
ligion of the Lord he would lie hurled
to the Hons, but having set his com
pass well, ho sailed right on. For the
lack of that element of decision of
character, so eminent in Daniel, many
men are ruined for this world, and
ruined for the world to come. A great
many at 40 years of age are not set
tled In any respect, Iwcause they have
not l>eo!i able to make up their minds.
Perhaps they will go west; perhaps
they will go cast; perhaps they will
not; perhaps they will go north; per
haps they may go south; perhaps they
will not; perhaps they may make that
Investment in real estate or In rail
roads; perhaps they will not. They
are like a steamer that should go out
of New York harbor, starting for
Glasgow, and the next day should
change for Havre de Grace, and the
next for Charleston and the next for
Boston and the next for Liverpool.
These men on the sea of life everlast
ingly tacking ship and making no
headway. Or they are like a man who
starts to build a house In the Corin
thian style and changes it to Doric,
and then completes It in the Ionic,
the curse of all styles of architecture.
Young man, start right and keep on.
Have decision of character. Chaiacter
is like the goldfinch of Touquln; It Is
magnificent while standing firm, but
loses all its beauty In flight. How
mud) decision of character in order
that these young men may be Chris
tians! Their old associates make sar
castic flings at them. They go on
excursions and they do not invite them.
They prophesy that he will give out.
They wonder if he is not getting
wings. As he passes, they grimace
and wink and chuckle and say, “There
goes a saint.” Oh, young man, have
decision of character. You can afford
in this matter of religion to be laughed
at. What do you care for the scoffs
of these men, who are affronted be
cause you will not go to ruin with
them? When the grave cracks open
under their feet, and grim messengers
push them into it. and eternity comes
down hard upon their spirt, and con
science stings, and hopeless ruin lifts
them up to hurl them down, will they
laugh then?
Take Bellalon Into Baslneas.
1 learn also from my subject that
men may take religion into their world
ly business. This Is a most appropri
ate thought at this season of the year,
when so many men are starting out in
new enterprises. Daniel had enough
work to do in occupy six men. All the
affairs of state were In bis hands—
questions of finance, questions of war,
of peace; all international questions
were for his settlement or adjustment,
lie must have had a correspondence
vast beyond all computation. There
was not a man in all the earth who
had more to do than Daniel, the secre
tary of state, and yet we find him three
times a day bowing before God in pray
er. There are men in our day who
have not a hundredth part of Daniel’s
engagements who say they are too
busy to be religions. They have an
idea somehow that religion will spoil
their worldly occupation; that it will
trip the accountant's pen, or dull the
carjieuter’K saw, or confuse the law
yer’s brief, or disarrange the mer
chant's store shelf. They think reli
gion is impertinent. They would like
to have it very well seated beside them
in church on the Sabbath, to find the
place In the psalmbook or to nudge
them awake when they get sleepy un
der the didactic discourse, or they
would like to leave it in the pew on
Sabbath evening as they go out. clos
ing the door, saying: “Good night, reli
gion! I’ll be back next Sunday!” But
to have religion go right along by them
all through life, to have religion look
ing over their shoulder when they are
making a bargain, to have religion take
up a hag of dishonest gold and shake
It and say. “Where did you get that?”
—they think that is an impertinent reli
gion. They would like to have a reli
gion to help them when they are sick
and when the shadow of death comes
over them, they would like to have re
ligion as a sort of night key with which
to open the door of heaven, but religion
under other circumstances they take to
be impertinence.
Serving God Costs Nothing.
Now. my friends, religion never rob-
bed a man of a dollar. Other things
being equal, a mason will build a bet
ter wall, a cabinet maker will make
a 1 *etter chair, a plumber will make a
better pipe, a lawyer will make a bet
ter plea, a merchant will sell a better
hill of goods. 1 say, other things be
ing equal. Of course when religion
gives a man a new heart, It does not
propose to give him u ucw head or to
iutellectualize him or to change a
man's condition when his ordinary
state is an overthrow of the philosoph-
icnl theory that a total vacuum is
Impossible, but the more letters you
have to write, the more burdens you
have to carry, the more miles you have
to travel, the more burdens you have to
lift, (lie more engagements you have to
pieet, the more disputes you have to
settle, ttie more opportunity you have
of lieing n Christian. If you have a
thousand irons in the fire, you have a
thousand more opportunities of serving
God than if you only had one iron in
the fire. - Who kq busy as Christ? And
yet who u millionth part as holy? The
busiest, men the best men. All the pep-
sous converted In Scripture bqpy at thft
time of their being converted. Map
thew attending to his custom house
duties, the prodigal sou feeding swine,
Lydia selling purple, Kimou Peter haul
ing in the net from the sea, Haul spur
ring his horse toward Damascus, go
ing down on his law business. Busy,
busy Daniel with all the affairs of
state weighing down upon his soul ami
yet three times a day worshiping the
God of heaven.
Ht-llglon In I'olltle*.
Again, I learn from this subject that
a man may take religion into his poli
tics. Daniel had all the affairs of state
on hand, yet a servant of God. lie
could not have kept his elevated posi
tion unless lie hud been a thorough pol
itician, and yet all the thrusts of offi
cials and all the danger of disgrace did
not make him yield one iota of his high
t« nod religious principle, lie stood lie-
fore that age, he stands before all ages,
a specimen of a godly politician. So
there have been in our day and in the
days of our fathers men us eminent in
the service of God as they have been
eminent In the service of the state.
Buch was Benjamin F. Butler, attorney
general of New York In the time of
your fathera; such was John McLean
Vf Ihe supreme jourt of the United
of Mas
■achusetts; such was Theodore Freling-
liuysen of New Jersey—men faithful to
the state, at the same time faithful to
God. It Is absurd to expect that nieu
who have been Immersed in political
wickedness for 30 or 40 years shall
come to reformation, and our hope Is
In the young men who are coming up,
that they have patriotic principle and
Christian principle side by side when
they come to the ballot ttox and cast
their first vote and that they swear al
legiance to the government of heaven
as well as to the government of the
United States. We would have Bun
ker Hill mean less to them than Cal
vary, and Lexington mean less to them
than Bethlehem. But because there
are had men around the ballot box is
no reason why Christian men should
retreat from the arena. The last time
you ought to give up your child or for
sake your child is when it is surround-
ed by a company of Cboctaws, and the
last time to surrender the ballot box is
when It Is surrounded by impurity and
dishonesty and all sorts of wickedness.
Daniel stood on a most unpopular
platform. He stood firmly, though the
demagogues of the day hissed at him
and tried to overthrow him. We must
carry our religion Into our politics. But
there are a great many men who are
in favor of taking religion into nation
al politics who do not sec the impor
tance of taking It into city politics, as
though a man were intelligent about
the welfare of bis neighborhood am
had no concern about his own home.
Honor* of Heaven.
My subject also Impresses me with
the fact that lions cannot hurt a good
man. No man eYer got into worse
company than Daniel got Into when he
was thrown Into the den. What a rare
morsel that fair young man would
have been for the hungry monsters! If
they had plunged at him, he could not
have climbed into a niche beyond the
reach of their paw or the snatch of
their tooth. They came pleased all
around about him, as hunters’ bounds
at the well known whistle come bound
ing to his feet. You need not go to
Numldin to get many lions. You all
have had them after you—the lion of
financial distress, the lion of sickness,
the lion of persecution. You saw that
lion of financial panic putting his
mouth down to the earth, and he roar
ed until all the banks and nil the insur
ance companies quaked. With his nos
tril he scattered the ashes ob the do
mestic hearth. You have had trial aft
er trial, misfortune after misfortune,
lion after lion, and yet they have never
hurt you If you put your trust iu God.
and they never will hurt you. They
did not hurt Daniel, and they cannot
hurt you. The Persians used to think
that spring rain falling into seashells
would turn Into pearls, and I have to
tell you that the tears of sorrow turn
Into precious gems when they drop into
God's bottle. You need be afraid of
nothing putting your trust In God.
Even death, that monster lion whose
den is the world's sepulcher aud who
puts his paw down amid thousands of
millions of the dead, cannot affright
you. When in olden times a man was
to get the honors of knighthood, he was
compelled to go fully armed the night
before among the tombs of the dead
carrying a sort of spear, and then when
the day broke he would come forth,
and amid the sound of cornet and great
parade he would get the honors of
knighthood. And so it will be with the
Christian In the night before heaven as
fully armed with spear and helmet of
salvation he will wait and watch
through the darkness until the morn
ing dawns, and then he will take the
honors of heaven amid that great
throng with snowy robes streaming
over sens of sapphire.

An Electrical Blase In the Royal
Palace at Constantinople.
American electricity has Just given
Turkey a shock that promises to awak
en it from the sleep that has settled
for so inauy generations over the east.
The authorities iu Turkey oppose all
ipveutlous. They believe them the
works of the evil spirit. Manufactur
ing, war and commerce would be car
ried on iu the same way that It was
2,(XX) years ago if the conservatives
had their way in the sultan's laud.
Particularly has Turkey objected to
electrical innovations. The scholars of
the Koran eauuot understand them aud
so hold them ns unlawful. An Ameri
can firm did not know this and, finding
that Turkey was behind the times in
matters of electric lights and tele
phones, sent a smart young Yankee to
Constantinople with a shipload of tele
phone, lighting and other apparatus.
Not only was the young pioneer, up
on his arrival, forbidden to take his
materials out of the ship, but Uiey
were taken out for him aud seized. lie
appealed to the American consul gen*
oral, who took the case to the grand
vizier. After a discussion of witch
craft the vizier gave his consent to the
setting up of the American apparatus
In the*sultan’s palace. It was for the
purpose of giving the grand vizier a
chance to prove that the electric ma
chines Were the work of the devil.
When the rooms of the palace bad
been filled with colored glass bulbs,
telephone bells, clicking telegraph In
struments aud other electrical appli
ances, the grand vizier was called In.
The effect was truly electrical. He
fled in dismay as soon as the dynamo
was started. He ordered the Ameri
can seized, and the apparatus was tak
en out.
The American appealed to the sul
tan, who Inspected the lights and tele
phones himself. He was wild with de
light and Immediately ordered the
whole palace fitted with wires for light
aud telephones. He Installed the engi
neer as electrical expert of the palace
and Issued an Irade taking the prohi
bition from electrical apparatus.
