WB DNBSBAY, SEPT. 13, 1893, -^-------a^ THE DUTY OF THE MY REV. THOMAS DIXON'S LAST SERMON AT CHARLES CITY. Fulfillment of the Two Great Command? ments, Love to God and Lore to Mau, Wai Solve Ail Financial amii All Social Problems. CAPE CHARLES, Ya., Aug. 27.-Kev. Thomas Dixon, Jr., preached today tfce last of the sommer series of sermons on the "Problems of Money." He will re tarn to New York next Sunday and inp ^e?work again in- Association ?xt today was, John xiii, 34, "A ne^r commandment I give tinto yon, th?fc ye loveSone another, even as I have loved you." ? gs 3%E??a?ie Seiiseiawhicfr we are too femBiaRwifii fiie Bible. We are hard? ened to it. d? my college days we were forqed to attend preaching services on Sunday, and consequently npon my mind ^c^chiiig made not t&e slightest it ? %mp-eSsfon. Tie sonad was too familiar -unpleasantly familiar. I knew the theme in one sense too well-in a real sense, not at alfc *? 1 THE BIBLE TOO FAMILIAR, A Boston woman lay dying in a hos? pital, and the ?arse was reading to her from tiie New Testament.. She read the sermon on the mount. To her surprise the woman looked ap and asked her who wrote that book, "That is a wonderful book! It will make its author famous.'* We need to hear the word of God, it seems to me, some? times as this poor woman heard it for tiie first time. We need to take it lit erally, to hear it thus and to believe that its message is a real one t o us. The two great commandments that sum np the duties of life, love to God and love to riian-love to God through love to man-how familiar we are with them, and yet how little we really know cf them. And yet it is in the fulfillment c f this simple law of Christianity that we shall find the solution to the great financial and social problem that presses now npon as for solution. The literal fulfillment of this, the great? est commandment, is the pressing duty of today. Obedience to it means rhe solution of tko problem of the ages, of the salvation of the race, because: :? First-Love is the fulfillment of the law. It fulfills the negations of the law. Love worketh no ill to its neighbor; therefore no man who loves his fellow maa can enter apon any business that can resnlt to the injury of his neighbor. JUSTICE IS LOVE. At the touch of the fulfillment of this law every gambling business, every sa? loon aad dive and brothel and question? able resort mast perish. Love cannot be unjust. The master who loves his servant gets from him tip very-highestservice. The " general who commands the love of his soldiers gets the very highest order of soldier. The master who wins the love of his servant is just to him. The gen? eral who wins the love of his soldier is a just general. Love seeks not simply its own, bat the good of another. Efe who seeks the good of another can ' nc4 destroy another in the process of at taininghis own good. Love cannot take advantage of misfortune. At" the breath of love in the business world the bar? gain counter mast disappear, and our taking advantage of oar neighbor's neces? sities to drive a hard bargain must be relegated to the age of barbaric compe? tition. Every bargain counter is a proc - lamation that somebody has failed; that ie factory is closed; that somebody * led fair dreams of prosperity had a broken heart and a fulfillment of the positive as welTas the negative ele? ments of law. It makes as to study and to know each other. Ignorance aad indifference are impossible if our hearts are engaged. We do not know each other. If we really loved our fellow man, we weald make it our business to know him. It is difficult for as to sac? rifice for those we do not know. LOVE AND TREASURE. A preacher straggled to raise a collec? tion for the heathen daring the war in his church. 'There was little or no re? sponse. While in the pulpit he received a telegram from the se&t of war an? nouncing a terrible battle, giving a fear? ful list of the dead and wounded* call? ing immediately for supplies, for nurses, for lint, for food, for bandages and phy? sicians and for money to sapply all these needs. They passed around the contribution box, and it came back load? ed-piled with money and with jewels. They took their rings from their fingers. Women took their earrings from their ears. They piled them in the basket, and many of them were wet with tears. Love fulfills the positive commands of the law. If we love, we will sacrifice. Love will send as oat after the people who need as. lt will make principle, not policy, the mainspring of life. Love in the heart of man for his fellow must bring obedient action in a thousand hu? man relations where now there is eter? nal conflict and friction. If we leve, we are at one in wills. Christ said, "If ye love me, Seep my commandments." S?coml-Lovenot only fulfills the law, bnt from the mountain peak of fulfilled law opens the universe in which to ex? pand and to ?row. 4 'Love thy neighbor as thyself." Higher love than this cannot t? required of ma?. Jesus said, "Love oneanother,evenasIhave loved yon." For this climax we strive. The highest point in the development of love is this divine climax. His love was matchless, because it iras the love of perfect human? ity. Jesus* greatest discovery was him? self. Tho most marvelous revelation he made to the world was of his deep knowledge of the Father found within his own great soul. But he buried self. He saved others. Himself be could not save. He threw his life away in the briefest possible min? istry. He was tender of the smallest needs of those who were about him. He had compassion npon the multitude lest they faint by the wayside. He fed them lest they should be overborne with weari ,T8ss as they returned to the city. When his disciples were wearied with work, he said to them, "Comoye apart and rest awhile." And in his last hour of help? lessness and of excruciating pain and of soul darkness on the cross his final thought was act of himself, but of the sorrowing mother who stood by the cross. Her he commended to the loved disciple. In spite of faults, of desertion, of de? nial, of aafaithfaiaess and of cruelty he loved them. The pharisees hated him. The common people professed allegiance. Judas to be his disciple, Peter swore that he would never desert him, and yet all alike were found with scribe and pharisee in the end. The common peo? ple cried, "Crucify himP Jadas be? trayed him, and Peter swore he never knew him. Even his loved disciple he found asleep when he asked that they watch with him while with anguish of soul he prayed in the garden. They all forsook him in the hoar of his supreme trial, and yet he died for them. And on his return after the resurrection not a ?ingie retake, only ft new joy, only as suranee, only love. Such was the love of Christ. It is commanded that we shall love men thus in vital ways; that we shall not love them merely in sentimental ways. We shall love one another thus in our busi? ness relations, in our social relations, in our political relations. INHUMANITY OF SIN. On what was this divine love based? On the intrinsic divinity and nobility of human life, that it belongs to God, is"the utterance of God's life and is in that sense an incarnation of the divine. Ev? erything that is not pure and noble is essentially inhuman. It belongs to the lower nature, to the soil. Jesus Christ saw in the vilest of the vile this element of the divine. Hence the love which en? wrapped his soul and was the main? spring of his mission. He loved the thief on the cross not for what the thief was, but for what the aspiration of his soul declared him to be capable of. Not for what he had attained, bat for what he might attain. Not for hi? actual char? acter, but for the image of God, in whose form he was fashioned. THE WEAK. So we are commanded to love the weak, and the criminal, and the helpless, and the improvident, and the despair? ing; so we are to bear their burdens in a boundless love that shall include the race; so we should love with a mother's undying hope. And, if humanity can? not reach this ideal, human life must be? come a starless, orphaned one. The ca? pacity of the heart is the measure of the depth of human need. The object may be all unworthy, but love loves on. So Jesus loved'the unworthy. So he min? istered unto them. So he lived for them and died for them. THE POOR. ALWAYS WITH US. It is this principle that must solve the problem of the poor, who will always be with us. It is this divine aspect of love that makes life as worthy as We find it today even in the midst of sin and of shame and of sorrow. Bill Sykes could slay the woman who had given every? thing for him, and yet while he slays her, while he brutally beats her from day to day, she crawls back to his den, faith? ful to that higher, to that holier instinct, which calls in love for sacrifice-sacri? fice at all hazards. Love suffereth long and is kind because of the greatness of the heart. If we could only infuse this great thought into the Heart of the race, the problem is solved. A mother recently petitioned the governor of a state for the pardon of a boy. The boy was guilty of the crime for which he was serving the sentence. It was a case of most aggra? vating circumstances. But the mother was so persistent in her appeals, so elo? quent in her expressions of love, that her indescribable devotion so moved th** heart of the governor that he wrote out the pardon for the boy. And when the boy came into his presence he said to him: 4'Young man, you do not deserve the pardon. Your crime is without ex? cuse. But for the sake of this mother and for the matchless love she bears for you, and the possibility of that love working your salvation, I give to you this par? don." A DRUNKEN MOTHER. - Such love is the power unto salvation, both for the individual and for society. A mother was arraigned in a police court charged with drunkenness. She was guilty. The judge fined her $5, in default of which she was to go to the island. A little ragged urchin stood by and heard the sentence. He cried to the judge, "Wait a minute, judge, I'll get the mor ey." He rushed out to all the places of business where he was known. He seen red from all his friends all the mone possible. He told them of his mother s difficulty; that she was to go to the island. He secured $2.35. He came back and poured the money out on the judge's desk and then said bravely to him, "It's all I could get now, judge, but if you will send me to the island for her Fm not so large, but Til stay longer and work out the balance." The poor woman, overwhelmed by this evidence of her child's devotion, rose and snatched him to her heart, while she cried between her sobs and tears that she would be a better woman from that day for the boy's sake. The judge re? mitted the fine, and from that hour she was a changed woman. A child's passionate love for a mother had lifted her from the ditch. Love is the fulfillment of the law. It is the power that fulfills its negations, its positive commands. It is the power that opens the new heaven to humanity, with its divine possibilities. So we must love as Christ loved. And if we are to solve the great and solemn problems that con? front humanity today we are to solve them in learning the lessons of Jesus. Only those who strive to fulfill his com? mand are Christ's children. That nation is only a real Christian nation that as? pires to fulfill it and that will never rest content until the struggle for fulfillment has taken shape in incarnated life. Until the church shall learn this deep lesson of fraternity-of love for the race -there must grow up outside the walls Of the church a larger church. Sud* a church is growing today, and its basis is the love of man and the service of man. They do not cali themselves mem? bers of the church, but from many of them. I fear we must learn some of the deepest lessons of true Christianity. As the city must increa^ its corporate lim? its to take in the city that is outside, and as the city grows by this incorporation, so the church ecclesiastically will grow in the future, by the process of enlarg? ing its borders and of learning the les? son of a larger life, with its larger possi? bilities, even from those whom they have despised in the past as teachers. "A new commandment give I unto you, that ye love one another, even as I have loved you." An Able Tale From Georgia. At a recent barbecue in southwest Georgia seven strange and hungry look? ing men were seen huddled together in a corner of the woods remote from the big crowd. But now and then, while the "car? casses" were roasting in the pits, one of the men would come forward, get a whiff of the savory meats and return to his disconsolate companions. No one seemed to know the meit-they were strangers to all, and yet they had the appearance of farmers who had raised a big crop of cotton at 6 cents. But ev^rylKxly knew them alter the horn blew for dinner. With a mad rush those hungry looking men made for the table, and with wild eyes and oj>en mouths they went to work. Shoulder after shoulder of beef dis? appeared, the men devouring everything in Bight. Tho crowd stood amazed and forgot that it was hungry too. Those 6even lank men were tho attraction, and it was not until they could eat no mere and had crawled off to rest- or die-that the people rememl>ered where they were and that they had appetites. The chief of the barbecue approached the men and in a faint voice asked: "Where did you fellers come from, and when did you eat before you struck | this neighborhood?" One of the men answered: "We came from this county, but we've been a-hidin an hungry. We jes' heard : that the war was over and that Sherman ; was a-givin out rations, an so we thought ? we'd git souief' The chief of the barbecue fainted, and i they carried him away more dead than alive.-Atlanta Constitution. . After a Good Deal of Thought. A little girl who asked a great many questions, some of which were not easily answered, had in her Sunday school les? son the conversion of Lydia under Paul's preaching, and Lydia being the name *f her grandmother, she inquired of her auntie, "Was it grandma heard Paul preach?" Being answered in the negative, she insisted on knowing who this Lydia was, and her aunt not being able to tell only made her more positive that it must have been her grandmamma, for she knew she went out of town to meetings and told of different preachers she had heard on her return. Her aunt explained that it happened a great many years before her grandmam? ma was born, and, supposing the subject would trouble her thoughts no longer, tucked the little one in her bed, and left her for a night of pleasant dreams. A few hours later, on going np to the room, she saw two bright brown eyes that evidently had not been asleep look? ing out from the pillow, and a very de? cided little voice exclaimed: "Oh, auntie! I know who it was that heard Paul preach. It was Lydia Pink ham."-Wide Awake. A Book Dispensary. The State Board of Examiner* Agree on a Plan. Thu Beard of Exatuiuers, after two days z.ud Dights of uuueasiug labor, has come to a conclusion about the quotion of books and depositories, and has ad? journed. The depositories will be established, but Dot io the way that was espected. The State wilt uot opeu up book dispen? saries xo the exclusion of individual dealers, bat it will go into the book busi? ness for all it is worth, and the pr?vale dealer will have a hard time of it unless he can purchase books at the same ad? vantage the State eau. and eau sell them at as small a profit as the State eau afford to do The scheme, briefly out-lined, is as fol? lows, the chief points of which are given by Superintendent of Educatiou May? field : The State will purchase all the books necessary for the use of the publie schools of the State. lu every town, and in fact in every place where any? thing is sold the State will try to estab? lish a depository. It is contemplated by the board of examiners that arrangements eau be made with dealers in thc differ? ent towns whereby they will handle the books to be used in the public schools. The State does cot propose to make any profit, except what is necessary to pay the expenses of handling the books about ten per cent It is not intended that dealers shall be run out of the business They are ex? pected to sell as many books to the pub? lic as the State's agents, provided they CUD make as good terms with the pub? lishers aud eau >ell with as small a profit as the State agents can. That is the questiou that will decide whether the State will again attempt to rub another monopoly. The authorities pro? pose at present to run a monopoly in whiskey and doubtless, the same spirit ihat actuated the whiskey monopoly, so called, was the moving spirit in devising the book scheme. As far as the text books themselves arc concerned, there have been few changes made Heed and Kellogg's grammars are given a back seat and an? other is adopted. Barnes* history gives way to another, but these arc the only changes of any importance. Several other books in different departments are recommended, but ou the whole, the books remain very much as they did 0? fore The following is the official list of books adopted : Readers : Holmes' Readers, adopted as a staudard.
