LOVE AND KNOWLEDGE.
What Is the Cause of Their Original
Separation.

What Is the Cause of Their Original
Separation.
The pulpit of the Second Unitarian
Church was occupied last night by John
Montieth, NJ. A.
He was, in his earlier years, connected
with the Presbyterian Church. serving as
pastor in st. Louis and Cincinnati. Of
late he has been Superintendent of Public
Instruction of the State of Missouri, but
is perhaps better known as the author of
several volumes of national history.
In discussing "Love and Knowledge"
Mr.. Monteith took for mis- text BrowDlng's
"Paracelsus" as the type of the reunion
of the 'halves of discovered world" He
answered the question how the two-love
and owledge-became separated by re-
ferring TO the lowest group of animal life,
where they were born as twins from
hunger and its satisfaction. and from affec-
ton for offspring In the higher groups,
as In the colony of ants, there is found
contest for food. and weapons for conquest
and defense. In the tiger, love for help
less young, and terrible defensive and
fighting power are intensified. Love is in
stinctlve, wit is made TO serve
hate. In the man personal weapons are
wanting. but brain inclosing reason and
will supplies the capacity for getting
weapons from nature. Infancy is more
helpless and prolonged, and becomes the
preceptor of love. The man was fully
equipped TO know and love all his kind.
but the old fight for food and the animal
instincts were in command, leaving love
still confined TO the small group, and
reason enlisted on the side of hate for OPP
posing groups.
Tine story in Genesis which represents
the tree of knowledge as divinely pro-
hlbited shows" he said, chow early the
attempt to apply reason to nature was re-
garded as tending to a league with the
devil. Competition FOR food and ecclesi-
astical prohibition OF the free use of reason
were assigned as the causes of the separa-
ton of nowledge from love.
Love without knowledge" the speaker
said, has failed to reunite the world.
The burning of witches was cited as
prompted by sincere but sectarian love,
in the belief that the unfortunates were
in league with the devil and doing bis
| work. Modern science has proved how
foolish was this CHASTITY Ignorant and mu +
derOus love.
"Diss0ciated knowledgewas shown to be
equally unable 10 heal the divided world,
and the only effective movements for
human progress and betterment had been
LED by men who united love and learning,
such as Jesus, Roger Bacon, Paracelsu.,
Giordano Bruno, Darwin and Marx,
together with the observation-disclosures,
SaVODdrola, Luther, CTon well. ~ C0Q06II,
Garrison and Phillips.
The present condition calls as loudly
for heroes as for martyrs. The indus
trially rppressed masses are suffering an
enforced martyrdom which should be
shared by learning ana culture The
learned enthusiast is the great want of
to-day. Excitement is deprecated by the
cool critics, but excitement linked to
sound learning and tempered by self
command Is the thing wanted"

TWO JUDGEMENTS.
All Shall Be on One Level Before
Christ.

Services at st. Luke's Church were re-
sumed yesterday after the fire. The in.
terror of the church has been newly deco
rated and presents pleasing appearance.
Many improvements have been made dur
ing the past two weeks. The rector
preached an advent sermon in the morn
ing, his text being from Romans Is: 1--WE
shall all stand before the judgment seat
of Christ"
He said: at is revealed that there shall
be twofold jndgment-a particular and
universal-one after death, the other at
the resurrection. The final judgment may
be near or distant, no one can know, but
drawing closer, swiftly. noiselessly. is your
day of judgment, when death shall bring
you before Christs judgment seat. We do
not have to die in order to stand before
Christ. While walking these streets. deal
ing with other men, we are already being
Judged. Christ has not changed. He will
be loving and merciful, judging US by
standards of eternal righteousness, expos
ing all hypocrisies and shams.
''There will also be universal judgment,
when wrongs will be righted, the poor de-
livered from their oppressors and justice
and love prevail on the earth. Then our
prayer, Thy Kingdom come will be
fully answered. Gods hand has painted
vivid and lurid pictures If that judgment,

A BUSINESS MANUAL.
Rev. c. o. Brown Recommends the
Proverbs.

Rev. Charles o. Brown, DID,, pastor of
the First Congregational Church, corner of
Post and Mason streets, delivered an able
address last night to young men. His sub
ject was, IAN Improved Business Man.
uaL" He declared that the Proverbs were
the truest and best guide that young men
could follow. whether already or about to
engage in any business or profession. Re-
Gently young man hao written to White
law Reid, editor OF the New York Tribune.
and asked him to suggest a business
manual. The famous editor wrote back
and told the young man that the
Proverbs were the best manual that
could be found. The correspondence was
afterward printed in full in the Tribune
and commenced on editorially at some
length. There is in this city, the speaker
stated, business man who, whenever he
employs new clerk, tells him to study
the Proverbs as manual in the conduct
of his business.
Many of the Proverbs were quoted bv
the speaker and applied to the dealings in
ordinary life. One should never sign for
more than he could afford to lose, In
giving an application of the Proverb thai
she who withholdeth the wheat will be
cursed" be said that it PROBABLY meant
the stock brokers who attempted to get a
corner on his staple. Some of the more
unfamiliar Proverbs were also quoted and
lessons drawn from each.

ON ROUGH RIDING.
Famous Monkey Drill of
the Soldiers.
Officers and Men Who Excel in
Horsemanship = A Popular
Innovation.

From time immemOrial there has always
been glamour of romance thrown around
the soldier, and it will in all probability
continue so until the end of time or at
least till the bigh-mlnded moralist succeeds
in lifting mankind up TO the lofty plane of
brotherly love, where, of course. there will
be no need for armies and brass buttons.
Until either one or the other of these times
comes. however, the poor civilian will
have to continue to smile and appear unob-
trusive whenever the fair sex are within
smiling distance of army brass buttons.
While the fascination extends to all
branches of the service it is pro badly over
the cavalry that this romance is thrown in
its greatest profusion. One does not have
10 turn to the novelist for pictures of the
''dashing cavalry officer" as history fur
nishes glorious examples in the persons of
the fiery Marcelus, the gallant Murat, the
noble Lisht Horse Harry Lee, the dash
ing Custer and the irresistible Phil Sheri-
dan.
In spite of all this idoliZing of the cav
alrymaD, there is probably less known
about this particular branch OF the service
than any other. Frederick Remington,
the artist, has done much to open the eyes
Of the ople regarding the trooper. and it
Harding Davis has written, but there still
remain many things about this soldier TO
attract and interest. San Francisco saw
tins famous monkey drill" at the Pavilion
last week, and it Is safe to hazard the
statement that while everybody enjoyed
and applauded the difficult feats of horse
manshir. they did not know why 1t was
done. Doubtless many of the spectators
went to their homes after seeing the drill
thinking the cavalry stationed al the Pre-
sdio contained score or more OF eX-cow-
boys and ex-circus riders.
This part of the programme was not
gotten up specially for the entertainment.
however. but was merely part of the
new regulations for cavalry drill and is
called trough riding"
The objsct of this kind of training is TO
give suppleness to the trooper, to teach
him greater ease In riding and to enable
him 10 assist his comrades from the field
when necessary.
Until recently most of the drill was de-
voted to teaching the trooper the use of
the side arm and carbine, while his knowl-

POLAR BEARS KEEP COOL.
Tropical Animals in Captivity Suffer

Tropical Animals in Captivity Suffer
 Most During the Heated Term.
 Ut will surprise most people," said Superintendent A. E. Brown, of the Philadelphia geological garden, to a Record man, ito learn that the polar bear stands the hot weather of the dog days in this locality better than the African lion. On hot days the lion Will get off hls reed; the pear will not. The tropical animals in the garden 5 continued the superintendent, ''are the ones mostly affected by the extreme heat of midsummer, strange as it may appear. I suppose the reason of it is that the heat there is more moist than that of the tropics, and, as it were, of a different character. Whatever nor tality occurs among our animals dur ing heated term is mostly among the tropical animals, especially the African. In hot weather I have watched the polar bear go into his tank, and then, instead of lying in the shade, extend himself in the direct rays of the sun, where the water on his skin would evaporate. He found out for himself, 1 suppose, that evaporation causes a lower temperature. Again, it is some what astonishing, at first, that our polar bear should suffer sometimes as he does from the severe cold of winter. I have seen him shivering on one of those bitterly cold days, when the sky was overladen and the air full of mois- ture. The moisture was evidently what affected him. In the arctic regions it is so cold that the moisture is frozen out of the air. Birds do not like the heat. It makes them perch with dropped wings. Heat affects not only the animals in the garden, but the finances of the garden itself. 4 differ ence of ten degrees in the thermome- ter, say if it is ninetyfve instead of eighty-fve, means a loss of several hun dred dollars in our gate receipts for the day"

A Valuable Lantern.

A will written with pencil on a shingle was once admitted to probate in the United States The author of Gossip of the Century, tells a story still more curious. Two British soldiers, comrades, while talking over the chances of war on the eve of a battle. agreed that whichever of them survived the other should inherit all his possessions. To insure the carry ing out of their agreement, they made their wills. As paper and pens were not at hand, they scratched their Hast will and testament on a horn lantern with a rusty nail. The battle was fought, and one of the comrades was killed. The other man, in course of time, returned to England, carrying with him the singular document. He took it to Doctors Commons, where it was proved and allowed. Then it ap- peared that the poor fellow who had died in battle had, without hearing of it, inherited property yielding two hundred pounds year, and the legatee under the horn-lantern will received the inheritance.

The two white men advance, and, detaching the pistol belts, pause to gaze one moment at the beauties. One of the murders had turned to speak to the other just as the shots were fired. He has a bullet hole in the side of his head right above the ear; the other was shot through the center of the forehead.
 As the avengers rode into Wick enburg few days later, Dave King look out of a saloon and shouted, What luck boys?" "All hunkey," answer Joe Blackwell, pointing to the recaptured sixshooters swing ing from his saddle.
 In 1867 Dave King was elected sheriff of Yuma County, Arizona, and served two years. He then drifted into Mexico, where he may be living yet. Creed Bryan died in Prescott in 1883, and Joe Black we'll survived, an old man, till 1890.-Globe-Democrat
