The Services Yesterday.
New YORK, November l4-Three
services were held to-day at Brooklyn
rink. which was filled 10 overlooking,
morning, afternoon and evening. At
the morning service Mr.. Moody an
nounced the hymn "Ho!d the Fort,
which was sung by Mr. Sankey, the con-
greglt on joining in the chorus Prayer
was offered by Doctor Buddington and
the 18th hymn was sung. Mr. Moody
commenced hls discourse on the charac-
ter of Daniel. lie said, the key to
his character Is separation; separation
from the world. There are very few
Bible characters against whom nothing
is said. Daniel is one Of them. There
is not cloud that has shadow over his
path Joseph WAS another and John the
Baptist and Joshua, except it be he
reproved,Edad and Mciad for preaching
because they were laymcn nj the age OF
seventeen. Daniel went TO Baby On and
was one of large number Of Hebrew
Young men whom the King ordered
should be educated in all the learning of
Babylon. 1t was also ordered that they
should eat of the same meat and drink of
the same wine. 1t was great temptation
to these young men TO say no at the right
time; Daniel was not afraid to say no in
such "A way that they knew what II meant;
very likely his worldly companions I'D.
vised him not to be too religious in Bah.
vlon, upon the principle that II would be
better when in Rome to do rs Romans
do, Christians of the 10th century
would have uddsed hIm TO eat some of
the meat and drink some wine because it
would be policy to keep peace with the
King, but Daniel said, it Is the law
of my God not to eat anything e
offered to idols. We dare not eat this
meat; give Us pulse and water" But the
Kings servants say TO Daniel and his
friends "the King will say: hat makes
YOU lean? Daniel says, "ior ten days
we will live on pulse and water, and
.e what the result will be- and they
grow fat and strong, so they succeeded
better than they who eat meat. 1t is
not necessary to drink brandy and eat
itch food to be strong. 1t is better to
walk with God and live temperately
We must be separate and peculiar if
necessary. The rest OF these
Young men no doubt thought that Daniel
and his friends, Shadrach, Meshach and
Abcdnngo were too peculiar AT last the
King had dream that grdatly troubled
him. but he could not remember nor did
he know the Interpretation Of 1t. He
called all his wise men around HIM to
tell his dream. but they said: "How can
we interpret it unless you tell US what
il is?" and the King was
angry, and ordered all Of the
wise men to be put to death,
but Daniel, who was one Of the younger
Of the wise men, said to the Kings mes
sengcr. "Ify you will give Us time We
will tell the dream and its Interpretation"
Then, Shudrach, Mc,hach nd Abdnego,
had prayer meeting, and they all
went to bed and slept souudly. How
many men could 90 10 bed and sleep
soundly If they expected to be beheaded
next daybreak? But they slept soundly;
they knew in whom they trusted.
