"FOR CHRIST'S SAKE. "
By MARK lIOLROYD.
Chicago.

How often are prayers to God closed
with an appeal "for Jesus sake. In
King James version there is authority
for it. Eph. iv. 30 we read: "Be ye
kind to one another, tender hearted,
forgiving one another, even as God for
Christ's sake hath forgiven you. ="
This erroneous translation was pardon
able in those who, as it were. had Just
emerged from out a church that be-
lieved "none but Christ, the sinless
one, could have the ear Of the King of
the universe, and that believed in the
intercession of the virgin mother with
her son, and in the intercession of
saints, who were thought to have done
superogator. works emitting them to
be efficient advocates with the Son and
mother.

scope to all his powers in the widest
range of industry and enterprise.
But suppose this were not true. On
the contrary, that to conduct business
on Christian principles is the same as
to fail; that only land grabbers and
those who make " corners" and huge
swindling monopolies, and pound of
flesh" men are successful in making.
money and amassing the largest
pOssessions;-wh then? Is money
everything Is it the end of the COM
mandment and the coin of the kingdom
of God? Can it purchase peace of
mind for us, or true elevation of soul,
or open for us the gates of the New Je-
rusalem ? He who has sought first the
one thing needful" may not build up
a grand fortune, but he will build up
grand manhood; and when he departs
this life, he will leave to his children
and friends and the community that
richest of all legacies, spOtless name.
A man to be Christian at all must
be Christian every day, and in all the
employments and engagements of life.
On Monday as well as Sunday; in the
political canvass as in the services of the
sanctuary; at the ballot-box as at the
altar of prayer; he must be honest, con-
scientiOus, thoughtful, having respect
for the will of God, and saying no word,
performing no act, upon which he can
not ask the divine blessing. If at any
time a man should be Christian, in
the fullest sense under the guidance of
the Christian law, moved by the high
est considerations and impressed with
a deep sense of his accountability
to God; it is when he goes to the polls
to deposit that which is significant of
his deliberate choice, and will, it may
be, decide the contest between right
and wrong, lifting up the one and
pulling down the other, perpetuating
the reign of corruption, or re-enthron-
ing conscience, righteousness and the
fear of the Lord in the councils of the
people.
This one word more may be said that
in social walks, in the domestic rela-
tions, in our parish and church mem
bership, and in our intercourse with the
world we are to be Christians, our con-
versation in accordance with the sa-
cred principles of the gospel of Christ.
If Christians we are, we will not con-
suit foolish maxims, nor inquire of a
sensual philosophy, nor question the
eachings of science as to the ordering
of our lives, the standard of our con-
duct, the goal toward which we shall
run, and the priz9 we should keep ever
in view. But we will ever turn to the
divine law as enunciated in the teach
ing5 of Jesus; aud illustrated by his
life, and let that be the rule by which
we walk, and the inspiration of all we
do. Thus influenced and directed, life
becomes something beautiful and
grand. 1t runs a heavenly race and
wins a starry crown.

the slave of his appetite. Hence, Christ
is ransom paid to sin-nOt literally,
of course, but really and truly he gave
himself ransom to sin, that ne might
deliver men from its bondage. He
came and suffered and died that he
might deliver mankind from the slavery
of sin. Hence these passages fall into
perfect harmony with the whole testi-
mony concerning the mission of Christ.
He is a ransomer in the same sense that
he is saviour. His whole work, life
and death, was to save men from sin,
so his whole work, life and death was
to ransom men from sin. Sin, not God,
holds men captive; so Christ ransoms
men not from the hands of God, but
from the power of sin.

The Critic suggests that one way in

part ot their space to summaries Of relig-
ious intelligence and opinion, CLEANED

Of all the denominations. Ths sugges.

tigers had been fed that day. They
had not; they had always been fed
on living fowls. Eleuse called for
three chickens from the hen-coop.
Taking these he threw one in the face
OF each tiger. The chickens seemed
simply motionless, glued to the spot,

teeth and claws.
Fleuse then went deliberately up to
tiger, coolly took the loose skin of
the back OF the neck with one hand,
and the root Of the tail with the other,
and, putting out his full strength,
dragged the heavy brute along the
deck OF the cage, and forced it through
the open bars. The chicken diversion
acted perfected. The brute had no
object but that OF retaining its prey.
1t growled fearfully; its eyes blazed;
its teeth crashed through the chicken;
it's unsheathed claws clasped and
pierced its quivering body. Red-hot
irons would hardly have made it
loosen its grip of the bird. Then the
keeper and the others helped Fleuse
in carrying tie remaining tigers into

Picking Up Tigers.

/ once saw three young tigers,
larger than Newfoundland dogs, loose
on the deck of a British India steamer
crowded with several hundred Mecca
pilgrims. The cage in which they
we're confined was large and barred
on each side with partition running
along it's middle, which had drop
door. The man who had charge Of
the animals would drive them over to
one side Of the cage, close the parti-
tion and clean out the other side at
his leisure; then, barring up the
clean side, he would open the parti-
ton and drive the tigers back, while
he went through the same perform
ance on the other side. One morning
| he neglected to put up the bars on the
side he had finished, and SO drove the
tigers out of the opposite side of the
open cage.
The animals, on obtaining theil
| liberty, took different directions, and
crouching in the nearest corners, lay
snarling and exposing their teeth
showing unmistakable signs Of mos

THE SAN JACINTO LINE.
The Pioneer Train to Rum Over
1t To-Day.

At s O. clock to-day the first train to
run over the branch line Of the Cali
.fornia Central, extending from Perris
to San Jacinto, will leave the Santa
Fe depot. The extension is about 16
miles in length and through a pic
esque and fertile section
of country. After leaving the
California Central main line
at Perris the track is almost
straight for nine miles when the
mountains are reached. Here it
makes wide curve, enters a pass in
the mountains and emerges at the
head of the San Jancinto Valley,
down which it runs for about half its
length, terminating at the town OF
San Jacinto.
The road was started last October
and has been built at a cost of $55, ,000.
AS soon as the material can be
shipped in, a $4,000 depot will be
erected by the Santa Fe Company.

IglesIas as a Candidate For The
Presto ency.

ST.. LOUIS, April 30.-For some
time Diaro Del Hocuro, a new paper
published in the city Of Mexico, has
been attacking the principles Of re-
election, and yesterday proposed the
name If Jose Maria Iglesias as cam
didate against General Diaz. Iglesias
has occupied many positions of pub
lie trust under the Mexican Govern
ment. Prior to 1876 he was staunch
Republican and opposed the Imperial
troops to the last, After the
triumph he was a member of Con-
gress, filed four different positions in
the Cabinet, and as Chief Justice of
the Supreme court was for three years
President of the Republic. When
General Diaz raised the revolution
against Loredo, Iglesias steok neither
side but declared himself President
and raised an army at Guana]uato:
When Diaz demanded its dispersal
Iglesias agreed on the condition Of a
new election, but was finally content
with being allowed to leave the coun-
try. He resided in New York for
several months, and then returned to
Mexico, where he has been engaged
in law practice, but never taking a
prominent part in politics. 1glesias
Is not desirous OF making contest,
and expressed himself as OF the opin-
ion that no one could be elected
against General Diaz. He thought
ex- Chief Justice. Vallerta would de-
velop considerable strength. Every
body considers Iglesias a very re-
spectacle candidate, but no one sus-
poets for an instant that he can be
elected.

JUDGE FULLER.
CHIcAao, April 90.-The nomination

CHICAGO, April 30.--The nomination
Of Melville A. Fuller, of Chicago, as
Chief Justice Of the United States, is
regarded here with uubounded salts
faction by the leading men of both
parties. Fuller in every respect is
fitted to fill that high office. He was
born in Augusta, Maine, in 1888
graduated at Bowdoin in 1858,
Minister Phelps being his class
mate. After studying law at
Bangor and attending lectures at Har-
yard, Fuller came west to Chicago.
His ability was speedily recognized
and for thirty years he has won dis
tinction among the foremost men Of
the bar. He has been prominent at
several Democratic conventions and in
1860 was selected to deliver the ad-
dress of welcome to Stephen A. Doug
lass. In his practice in the Supreme
Court of the United States Fuller has
frequently come in contact with Ed
lnunds, Thurman and other great
lawyers, but has never failed to hold
his own against any of them. He is
familiar with the decisions of the
courts, and especially on all Constitu-
tional questions. When Fuller was
informed of the nomination he was
with surprise, and re-
quested that he be not pressed for an
extended interview, simply stating
that he would ACCEPT the nomination.
