ting OF Repentance.
BROOKLYN, Nov. a6.-In the forenoon
service at the Tabernacle today, Rev. Or.
Talmage took for his subject most sen.
sOnable one, "a Hunting Scene" the text
being Genesis xix, O, In the morning he
shall devour the prey, and at night he
shall divide the spoil"
! A few nights ago 500 men encamped
along the Long Island railroad so as to be
ready for the next morning, which was the
first "open day" for deer hunting Be
tween sunrise and ? o'clock in the after
noon of that day Is deer were shot. On the
goth of October our woods and forests re
sound with the shock of firearms and are
tracked of pointers and settlers because the
quail are then a lawful prize for thesports-
man.
On certain day in all England you can
hear tho crack of the sportsman's gun, be
cause grouse hunting has begun, and every
man that can afford the time and ammuni-
tion and can draw bead starts for the
fields. Aenophon grew eloquent in regard
to the art of hunting In the far east peo-
pie, elephant mounted, chase the tiger
The American Indian darts his arrow at
the buffalo until the frightened herd tum-
bic over the rocks. European mobiles are
often found in the fox chase and at the
stag hunt. Francis / was called the father
of hunting. Moses declares of Nimrod, (
He was a mighty hunter before the Lord" !
Therefore, in all ages Of the world, the
imagery ofmy text ought to be suggestive,
whether it means wolf after a fox or a
man after lion.
Old Jacob, dying, is telling the fortunes
Of his children. He prophesies the devour-
ng propensities of Benjamin and his de-
scendants With his dim old eyes he looks
)f and sees the hunters going out to the
ields, ranging them all day, and at night
all coming home, the game slung over the
and reaching the door of the
ent the hunters begin to distribute the
same, and one takes a coney, and another !
rabbit and another a roe. In the morn !
ng he shall devour the prey, and at night 1
lie shall divide the spoil" Or it may be a I
eference to the habits Of wild beasts that
lay their prey and then drag it back to f
he cave or lair and divide it among the {

TARIFF WORK BEGUN.
Interested Industries Appear Before the
Ways and Means Committee.

ways and Means Committee.
WASHINGTON, Sept 5.-The pro-
tected industries, which have been
clamoring for full hearing before
the ways and means committee before
a general tariff bill is prepared, do
not appear to be anxious to avail
themselves of the courtesy granted by
the committee in setting apart the
period from September 4 to September
20, inclusive, for hearings of all those
interested in the tariff schedules
After certain industries have been al
lotted days and been invited by the
committee to be present and present
their arguments, they have on one
pretext or another made excuses for
failing to fill the time and have asked
for other dates.
e. In the absence of other interests,
the first hearing of the day was &C
corded to a delegation from the Ber-
muda islands, consisting of T. J. Wat
son and S. A. Masters, representing
the legislative council of those islands.
Mr.. Masters read an appeal signed by
all the members of the legislative
council 1t explains that the United
States was the natural market of the
Bermuda islands for potatoes, onions
and other early fruits and vegetables
shipped between April and June Is.
The duty which the islands pay
to get their products to market in the
United States amounts to $50, 900 or a
tax of $40 per capita for ever inhab-
liant of the islands The Bermuda
council desired that their early vege-
tables be admitted to the United
States on the same terms as products
were admitted into the islands and, il
not, that they be admitted on the same
terms as obtained before the passage
of the Mckinley law. The imports
into Bermuda amounts to 1919, 900 out
Of total of $3.50, 900 showing that
that two-thirds of all the products
imported are obtained from the
United States. OF the exports Sea-
600 out of a total of 1854, 900 go to the
United States. In other words the
balance of trade in favor OF the United
States is s451, 200. The contention of
the inhabitants was that the early
vegetables exported to the United
States by Bermuda did not come in
competition with like products here.
The present duty only increased the
price here and made it hardship for
the Bermuda inhabitants
Mr.. Hopkins asked: This is case,
then, of where the foreigner pays the
tax?"
Mr.. Masters replied: Eyes, sir"
In explanation of his reply Mr.. Mas
tiers cited an instance of the shipment
of 10000 boxes Of onions last spring.
The tariff was thirty-seven cents per
box and the selling price was only
fifty cents. The shipment on account
