bers of the national reform association
for the change of the Sabbath from
the seventh to the first day that
there were a few meetings of
the disciples on that day, practically"
the speaker said, putting a construc-
tlOn on the fourth commandment never
contemplated by the law maker, the
true design having been to establish a
memorial of creation" If, then, the
courts of law remain as such, it will be
impossible for them to uphold such
law from the fourth commandment.
The speaker then read from Judge Coo
ley to show that if courts allowed them
selves to be Influenced by public
opinion they would become reckless of
0ath-and then read also to the effect
that no forced OF unnatural construc-
ton should be put Upon the words of a
statute. Now, if the seventh day is first
claimed by these men to be an indefin-
lite period of time, and then turn about
and make it definite period by max
ing it to mean the first day OF the week.

bath is shown to be the day Immediately
preceding the fifth day of the week, If,
then, the ministers are the successors of
the prophets, through whom God made
known his will, as DR.. Crafts claims,
and if these men can decide the mean
Ing of Gods words, what, then, is the
necessity for law at all? Will these
courts, though, remain guided by law?
No, indeed. they will become courts of

gians, and decisions will be based upon
theology and not religion. Therefore

to various publications Including De
Schaff's Cyclopedia), all written by
First day observers. admitting that
there is no evidence in the Bible for
the observance of Sunday. "Why them"
the speaker said, 'do those men de-

in that train, and, as De Crafts says.
the ministers are successors of the
prophets, it starts the beginning of an
ecclesiastical power that will result in
putting the civil power under control

bination of church and state, with all
its train of evils. Now" said he, 'if
the people of this nation want peace
and prosperity to remain with them, let
them ever resist all such legislation"
He then went on to prove that all the
power of the government was delegated
from the people, and all rights
not so delegated remained with the
states and the people, and as the peO-
pie never delegated the right to legis-

RHYTHMIC LAWS.
Thy Statutes Have Been MY
Songs" DR.. Thwing's Text.

DR.. Charles F. Thwing preached yes
terday morning at Plymouth Congrega-
tional church on the text, "Thy State
utes Have Been My Songs" from
Psalms, 1854. His opening words
were:
Statutes are to be known, interpreted
and applied, Disobedience to statutes
is to be discovered, judged, punished.
heavy bolts, grated windows and gray
stone walls. Statutes hardly form the
subject of song, for song is the voice of
the heart so full of joy that the
JOY overfows from the lip. Song
anguish Quoted. Song suggests the
voice of a bird, or the human voice,
beating its triumphant way over the
free waves of the free air. But David
suggests that the statutes have become
his song, that that which suggests con-
fine ment and slavery has become that
which is vocal with freedom and Joy
and delight. Man has struggled to
make the law easy, or to rid himself of
law; and here IS plain statement
that the struggle is triumphant
the law has become his song. Slavery.
license, liberty. law. These are four
words often on mans lips. License is
simply permission to do what one wants
to do. But it requires no long expert
ence to learn that license results in
slavery. If one does what he wants to
do. he soon finds that he cannot do what
he wants to do. The use of license re-
suits in slavery"
After illustrating this clearly he
said: But law and liberty are quite
as common words to the human lips as
license and slavery. Law and liberty.
Law is designed to result in liberty.
Perfect law does result in liberty, and
liberty is simple obedience to perfect
law. AT first law seems to be slavery,
but at last law is known to be liberty.
After several figures illustrating these
statements with great nicely, he con-
tinued: II picture Liberty as woman
large of form and vigorous, with a face
that is calm, enlightened and gracious.
Around her white brow is bound iillet
inscribed with the word Law. Her
right hand rests upOn the head
of Slavery, which is as GRIM
nal, with face dull as the brute,
and degraded as is not the brute with
hands manacied and feat in letters. Her
left hand rests upon license, whose face
Is eager, animated. ambitious. Thus
liberty having upon her brow the fillet
of the law, folding slavery beneath the
touch of her right hand and license be-
meath the touch of her left hand, her
white sandaled feet are pressed firm and
hard upon the neck of the fiend, black
of face, fiery of eye, devilish of form and
expression, the fiend that we call sin.
Thy statutes have been my songs.
Several of the experiences of life pre-
sent occasions when the statutes of God
become the songs of man, in which
slavery, limitation and hardship become
freedom. joy, delight. One of these oe-
casions is, think, that which we cali

A HUNDRED YEARS AGO.
The French Revolution and Its
LeSSOnS---The Riot

Rev. H. H. Simmons, at the First
Unitarian church, commencing his
sermon, said: Just century ago the
French revolution began. One hun
bred years ago, this month of April,
was elected the famous states-general,
which had not met before for nearly
two centuries, and which was so
quickly to become the national assem-
bly, and then the constituent assembly,
and to abolish the feudal system in
three months. One hundred years ago
this very week the stateS-general gath
cred at Versailles, was presented to
the king, had their great procession,
and prepared for their first session
next day. The people were rising, too,
and 100 years ago to-day. April %, came
the fist considerable Instruction of the
year, the sack of Revellion's establish
ment, killing and wounding some 500
men. 1t lasted all the day with grow
ing frenzy. and toward sunset Tor about
noon with us) had to be suppressed with
grape shot. That cannonade, 100 years
ago this very hour, was the real tocsin
of the French Revolution. and calls us
this morning to consider the centennial
lessons of that strange chapter in his
tory. The first lesson the preacher
found was that injustice, however old
and established, is doomed to be de-
strOyed. He gave long and detailed

account of the wrongs of the ancient
regime, the wealth and waste
OF the upper class, and the
poverty and starvation of the lower:
a state of society which Carlyle pictured
by. widow gathering nettles for her
chlldren's dinner, while perfumed
seigneur took from her every third net
tie under the name of rent and law.
But he said an equally emphatic lesson
was that wrongs must be remedied
wisely. and he traced with much length
the terrible evils which came from that
attempt to remedy them by anarchy
and violence. 1t removed the tyranny
OF mobiles, but only to substitute the
worse of mobs and monsters like Robes
pierre. Concluding he said this cen
tennlal recollection of the misfOrtunes
OF France makes us celebrate our own
tude. 1t also throws much light on our
social questions to-day. The evils
coming from that old inequality of
rich and poor. bid us beware and let
no such inequality grow In our midst.
And the evils which came from that
lawless attempt to remove it bid us be-
ware OF every symptom of anarchy.
which, however harmless in the heads
of theorists, becomes horrible in the
hands of mob. Public order must be
maintained most sacredly. Those po-
licemen facing the riot last Sunday
were engaged in as holy work as any
preacher in the city: and the peaceful
preacher himself ought to be ready to
take gun in the name of public order
if he feels competent to handle it
without danger to his friends. In our
labor troubles, let both sides learn the
lesson of the French revolution; let
justice and humanity grow among the
rich and regard for order be preserved
among the poor, and the spirit of
brotherhood increase among both, and
our social questions will solve them
selves and far better century begin.

CIGAR GIRL OF CUBA"
There was any amount of 'Star
Spangled Banner'' enthusiasm at the
Pence last night. The fun began III the
Cigar Girl of Cuba" which was the
play proper for the evening. and reached
a climax in ''Muldoon's Picnic" The
cigar is very pretty Cuban romance
and good play, but the one comedy
role, Yankee of the Scion Single
sort, was given the lions share of
attention. Neil Scully made the char
acter go with great emphasis. His
''speech against time' brought down
the house. especially his references to
George Washington and his quotation,
Give me liberty, or give me a herdic
line" The other characters in the play
were all in pretty Spanish costumes,
and We're we'll acted. Bert Wilson's
Muldoon in ''Mudoon's Picnic" which
followed, was funny, and Scully, as
Mulcahy. was as broadly humorous as
he could make it. Miss Geraldine
Utter's song was prettily sung, and en-
cored. Same bill until Thursday.
