now-now. I would not talk to you in
this way if l did not know that Christ
was able to save all the people, and
save thousands as easily as ave one. l
would not go into an hospital and tear
off the bandages from the wounds if /
had no balm to apply. 1 would not
have the face to tell a man he is a sin
ner unless I had at the same time the
authority of saying he may be saved.
Suppose in Venice there is a Raphael, a
faded picture, great in its time, bearing
some marks Of its greatness. History
describes that picture. 1t is nearly
faded away. You say: ''Oh, what a
pity hat so wonderful a picture by Ra-
phael should be nearly defaced!" After
a while a man comes up, very unskill-
full in art, and he proposes to retouch it.
You say: "Stand off 1 would rather
have it Just as it is; you will only make
it worse" After a while there comes
an artist who was the equal of Raphael.
He says: Il will retouch that picture
and bring ont all its original power"
You have full confidence in his ability.
He touches it here and there. Feature
after feature comes forth, and when he
is done with the picture it is complete
in all its original power. Now God IN
pressed his image on our race, but that
image has been defaeed for hundreds
and for thousands of years, getting
fainter and fainter. Here comes mp

to Him, every heliotrope must breathe
His praise, every drop in the summer
shower must fash His glory, all the tree
branches of the forest must thrum their

celebrate a world redeemed.
Now, all this being so, what is the
common sense thing for you and for me
to do? What we do, I think, will de-
pend upon
fhfhk CHEAT FACTS.
The first fact, that sin has ruined us. 1t
has blasted body, mind, and soul. We
want no Bible to prove that we are
nne Any man who is not willing
to acknowledge himself an imperfect
and a sinful being is simply a fool, and
not to be argued with. We all feel that
sin has disorganized our entire nature.
That is one fact. Another fact is that
Christ came to reconstruct, to restore,
to revise. to correct, to redeem. The
third TACT Is that the only time we are
sure Christ will pardon us is represent.
Now. what is the common-sense thing
for us to do in view of these three facts?
You will all agree with me-to quit sin,
take Christ, and take Him now. Suppose
some business man in whose skill you
had perfect confidence should tell you
that tomorrow Monday morning be-
tween IL and II O'Clock you could by a
certain financial contraction make five
thousand dollars, but that on Tuesday
perhaps you might make it, but there
would not be any positiTeness about it,
and on Wednesday there would not be
so much, and Thursday less, Friday less,
and so on less andless-when would you
attend to the matter? Why, your com
mon sense would dictate: Immediate
ly / will attend to that matter between
IL and IL O'Clock tomorrow Monday
morning. for then 1 a surely accom-
plish it, but on Tuesday 1 may not, and
on Wednesday there Is less prospect. /
will attend to it tomorrow" Now let
us bring u common sense in this
of religion. Here are the hopes
of the Gospel WI may get them now
Tomorrow We may get them, and We
may not. Next day we may, and we
may not. The prospect less and less

DEATH RODE THE CAR.
SIX VICTIMS OF A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT AT
KALAMAZOO
A Railroad Engine Crashes Into Crowded Street Oar
and the Inmates Hurled to Terrible
Death-A List Of the
Victims.

KALAMAZOO, MICH, May s.-A shock
ing accident occurred about $50 o'lock
this evening at the West Main street
crossing of the Michigan Central Railrnad.
A street car containing seven ladies and
two gentlemen was crossing the track
when switeh-engine dashed down upon
it from the east at a high rate Of
speed and the driver being
unable to get the car out of the way, the
helpless passengers were hurled to terri
bic death. 1t was but the work of mo-
ment and the fearful catastrophe was over
The street car was carried almost TO Acad-
emy street, the pieces flying in all directions
and the human freight being mapgled in a
frightful manner. Those in the car were:
Mrs Alexander HsddOck, Mrs NJ. F.
Mattles, Miss Gertrude TillOtson, Mrs
Geo. Smiley, Mrs. Middleton, Mrs. Van
Antwerp, Mrs. S. A. Gibson. Mrs. jon
sthan Barnes, Mr.. l.. O. Lull, DIR. Sutton.
The first six were killed, two being found
dead in the cattle guard, one in the creek
near by, two on the track and Mrs. Mid
dleton, died an hour sfterward. Mrs.
Gibson was injured in the head and side,
and Mrs. Barnes was bruised badly. The
male passengers both escaped. The driver
of the car escaped by jumping. The
switch engine was running at .
high rate OF speed. The gates at the
crossing where the accident occurred are
not used between $50 and $50 p. H., the
gate keeper going home at that time
This custom probably deceived the driver
Of the street ear, who was new man, and
probably supposed that the gates, would
Of course be down, if an engine were COM

The City of Paris Makes the Tastes. Ocean
Voyage.
NEW YORK, May s.-The steamship
City of Paris, of the Inman Line, which
arrived at Sandy Hook at II Is o'clock to-
day, has broken all records from Queens
town. Her corrected time is 5 dsys, %
hours and 7 minutes. The best previous
record, which WAS made by the Etruria,
was days, hour and 49 minutes.
II is the first voyage across the Atlantic
made in less than 6 days, and there were
many men in maritime circles who proph
esied that the trip would never be made in
less than that time. On her first day out
from Liverpool, the City of Paris covered
AS miles. The next day she progressed
494 miles further on her journey. Then on
the third day she still further increased
her stint and went sos miles. The fourth
day was the best of all, and
the City of Paris made 5ll miles. On the
succeeding day she made 504 miles, and in
the last fraction of a day she went 49,
miles. The City of Paris not only broke
the record for the entire voyage, but alsC
made the quickest single days run, hav'
ing accomplished 5l1 miles in one day
The longest run previously made in sin
gle day was sos miles by the Umbria o.
the Cunard Line. The City Of Paris was
commanded by Captain Frederick Wat
kins, and brought large number of sa
loon passengers, among whom WAS DaviC
Dudley Field, who though eighty-fve re

Him in Amenca-Walsh on
the Stand.

LONDON, May s.-Mr. Parnell's exami-
nation was finished before the special COM
mission to-day. He testified that the re-
ception in America comprised leading mer-
chants in New York, representative citi-
zens and ministers OF religion. In his
speeches in New York witness had declared
that not farthing contributed to the Irish
cause would 20 towards organizing re-
bellion in Ireland. Throughout his tour
of the United States he had never sweryed
hands breadth from that declaration.
Attorney General Webster, the witness
said, had quoted from five out OF sixty
speeches he had made in the United States,
ignoring the general tenor cf his speeches
so as TO misrepresent his words.
All the names the Attorney General had
mentioned as those Of persons who were
associated with the meetings were only a
small fraction OF those who had attended.
Men Of prominent position and OF un-
doubted respectability attended those
meetings. In no sense could the
American receptions be identified with the
proceedings OF the physical force party.
Witness firmly believed that none Of his
colleagues, since joining the Irish Parlia-
ment party, had had anything to do with
the Fenians. Only casually did the
Fenians come within the rules Of the con
stitutionsl movement.
Archbishop Walsh took the stand. lie
testified that he came 10 the conclusion
before 1879, that there was need OF de
fensiye land organization.
The Archbishop continuing said that in
the course of his visits through his do
cese, he had abundant means OF knowing
that the league denounced outrages. Many
priests bad joined the league with his full
approval. He saw nothing in the action OF
the members Of the league TO forbid the
clergy joining the organization.
