Death OF Col, EiIsha e. Rice.

Col. Elisha E. Rice died yesterday
morning at his residence, No. GAL X
street, of heart disease, in the 65th year
of his age. His funeral will take place
tomorrow afternoon, at Q o'clock. Col.
Rice was born May Z, 1920, at Union, Me.
Ho carried on the business of manufac-
turing until tho year 1856, when he was
appointed consul at Hakodadi, Japan, by
President Pierce, and was reappointed
under tho administrations of Presidents
Buchanan, Lincoln, johnson, and Grant.
Mr.. Townsend Harris, of New York, was
sent TO Japan to conclude u treaty with
that country, and Col. Rice followed him
as tho representative Of the United States
government, and was the first foreign
official, barring Mr.. Harris, accredited to
Japan. He studied law, and was ad.
mitted to tho bar in his native state in
| 1915. but never practiced his profession.
| Col. Rice was in former years a member
of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows,
and was Mason at bis death. He was q
brother Of tho late Judge Rice, who was
Judge of the supreme court of tho state of
Maine for more than sixteen years, and
held the positions Of president Of the
Maine central and vice president of the
Northern Pacific railways. Col. Rice
was q man of commanding presence, being
moro than six feet in height, and we'll
proportioned to his height. He was well
known in Maine and California and here,
having resided in this city for the past
eleven years. He leaves widow and
two sons. The elder Is at present vice
consul general of the United States at
Japan, and the second son is practising

generations through the teachings Of the
church.
Anti Christian thought will elevate
man only to lower him all the more, and
the natural outcome of 10 will bo agnos-
toism for tho intellect and pure animal
ism for the body.
Enlarging upon this contrast Of re-
ligious thought and development, the
reverend father eulogized the human
mind Of Christ as one endowed with
living, active intelligence, inefiably far
reaching, and inoomparably superior to
that Of any ancient or modern man that
| over lived. For in Christ all the troas-
ures of knowledge and wisdom were
found. Tho depth Of His intellect is
shown IN His answers to His captious
enemies. His sublime gonius Is evidenced
by almost every page OF tho gospel, for
instance. by the Lords prayer, the boati-
tudos, the love for enemies, His answers
to enemies during His passion, His last
words on the cross, and that grand invi-
tation extended TO all humanity which
has not been in vain, since no one who
ever accepted II has been disappointed.
Come to Me all yo that arc heavily laden,
and will refresh you"
| Yet oil this sublimity was allied to q
simplicity that made him see things as
| tney Werei NO loVeu 70 conborb WIN ohii-
rem, tho poor and the lowly.
| Christ was the first-born OF all creatures,
the center of tho universe, tho key Of his
tory, and the supreme judge; His soul
must, therefore, have possessed an intelli-
gence adequate to His mission. He en-
ioyod tho beatification from the first
moment Of incarnation; His mind pene-
trated tho forces Of nature. tho beauties Of
poetry, the intricacies of history, aud the
recessos Of tho human heart. Christs
intelligence is the divine typo Of and the
model OF ours, since we were created after
His own image and likeness. 1t is source
Of strength for our souls, since we may
securely accept the doctrinoso of Him who
Justly called Himself the light OF tho world.
1t is also q never-failing source Of conso-
lation during our weary pilgrimage, since
the teachings Of Christ loyalty accepted
will lead us to the bright light Of eternal
| blisa.

HEALING OF THE TEN LEpERs.
Sermon by Rev. Fred. ID. Power at

Sermon by Rev. Fred. ID. Power at
the Vermont Avenue Christian
Church.
Rev. Frederick d. Power, Of tho Yer
mont Avenue Christian Church, preached
last evening to large congregation on
the cleansing Of the lepers, from Luke,
xvii, II. The pastor has been discussing
in his evening sermons for several
months the Miracles of Christ" and this
was the twenty-frst OF tho series.
Our Saviour was passing through q
Samaritan village. Under King Reho-
boam the children of Israel had been di-
ylded into two distinct klngdoms-Judah
and Israel. From their capital Israel
took the name Samaritans. Some of our
Lords most remarkable experiences took
place among these people. They mar
yelled that he, being Jew, should ask
water of a Samaritan, and IL was all the
moro touching and beautiful to SEQ the
gratitude of tho one Samaritan leper,
while the nine Jews that were cleansed
returned not to give thanks. The plans
were already deep laid In Judea for his
destruction. The healing Of ten calls
forth no word of praise from the people.
The compassionate high priest feels him

has compassion, and presents the remedy
Here Is great misery, great grace, and
great unthankfulness. The saddest pic
ture drawn from depravity of man is in
gratitude, We should be careful not to
go with the multitude. Better be with
the handful and right than with the
many and wrong; with the one poor Sa-
maritan and grateful than the nine who
have no gratitude-no manhood. Who

reeking with horrible corruption.
driven forth to dwell with the decaying
bodies Of the dead as If unfit for the
light of the sun or tho eyes of men.
What now2 Gone on their way rejoic-
ing, clean, pure, sound, the leprosy, re-
moved but gone TO the heart and become
aleprosy Of sin, Of ingrattude, Of selfish
ness. There are those who in distress
disease, misfortune, or grief pledge
themselves to God and then when the
cloud and thunder Of His frown has
passed, forget Him; those who are
cleansed by Christ of their spiritual
maladies and then go back to the
world. The thankful stranger is {
