DR.. Talmage's First Attempt to
Preach Without Notes, and What
Happened.
Several gentlemen were talking over
the recent lecture of DIR. Talmage on
Russia and the Gar in the Riggs
house last night, when Boniface Dc
Witt told an interesting story of the
famous preachers first experience in
trying to deliver sermon without
notes.

Mr.. De Witt. land occurred in my old

was preaching there. and one week he
made up his mind to go into the pull
pit the next Sunday without notes OF
memoranda of what he was going to

say. He memorizcd his sermon. and
tongues end, so Sunday night he went
to the church pretty well fortified with
confidence.
I'm those DAYS in that section of
Jersey churches and hotels and many
private residences We're equipped with
private gas machines. and the church
where Talmasc was to hold forth had

after conducting the preliminary serv-
ice all right he gave out his text. Then
he was Mortified to find that he could

ideas failed to come. He was in agony,
and began slowly and impressivcly to

he reached the last word and the per-

plunged the place into utter darkness.
There was no other means of lighting
the edifice. and when j, was announced

rHn BRAZILIAN 1NsuRaENT WILL
THROW UP THE SPONGE.
He nssras q port1xuese Vessels and
Sends Word to President Peixoto
i That He and His Followers Will
Surrender II Granted Protection.

Washington, March 13-Advices re-
ceived at the state department to-day
from Minister Thompson Mt Rio Janeiro
indicate that the Brazilian rebellion is
about ended. The dispatches from Min
lister Thompson contain the information
that Admiral Da Cana has gone aboard
the Portuguese war vessel Mindclo, now
in the harbor at Rio, and has sent to
President Peixoto by the Portuguese Of
tlcer an offer of surrender on condition Of
full protection for himself and followers.
Two dispatches were received by the
state department. They were in cipher,
end when translated, read as follows:
''Rio de Jqneiro, March II, 1891
Gres ham, Washington: Da Cana to-day,
through the senior Portuguese naval
commander, offered to surrender to the
president of Brazil providing he and his
followers were guaranteed protection
"Rio Janeiro, March -, 1894. - To
Gresham: Da Cana has gone aboard Il
Portuguese man-of-war for asylum.
-"rhompson."
Secretary Gresham believes this marks
the end of the Brazilian war. There
is conside rable surprise expc .sscd here by
those interested in the affairs at Rio
that the cffer of cArrender should have
been made through the Portuguese COM
mander who, up to this time, has not
sttwn any particular disposition to take
hand in the conflict. 1t is not thought,
however, that the action of the portu-
zuese in receiving Da Cana is neces-
tirily an act of sympathy with the i'll
surgents. The Portuguese are said to
recognize principle of international
hw, now obsolete, by which right of
asylum as it is called, is granted tcnl-
rcrarily by neutral power to u de-
fet ted hellioerant.

CHAPTER, XVI.

Hyacinth Vane's trial, while it lasted,
occupied the attention of all England; !;
there had not been SO hadrh sensation
there had. been no such sensation for
years. There had been cases of pois-
oning and horrible murders, but moth
ing like this-a young and beautiful
girl in her Jealousy had slain the
woman she believed to be her rival.
1t was trial that had been expected
for many months; but the prisoner had
been seriously i'll, and it had been de-
layed until she was well enough to ap-
pear at the bar of justice.
The March Assizes at INVERSION were
the general subject Of conversation;
every one was on the alert. The grand
jury found a true bill, and Hyacinth
Vane was to be tried for her life for
the willful murder Of Lady Fraser.
Hyaclnth's father was dead, and, but
for Alan, she would have been alone in
the world. He would have lavislled
his whole wealth in her defense. He
employed the cleverest and most elo-
quent counsel; he left no stone unturn-
ed; he wore himself to q shadow in his
efforts-but circumstantial evidence
was too strong for him.
The day of the trial came, and from
all parA of England people went to see
the heroine of the Dene Hall tragedy.
There had been nothing like the ex-
citement for years.
The evidence aga rst the prisoner
was strong. Ladies Of unimpeachable
veracity came forward and said that
they had heard the prisoner threaten
that she would slay the deceased IL
she took her lover from her; and those
words, spoken by the girl in the mad
frenzy of jealousy, meaning nothing
then, had a very different and far
more horrible sound when repeated
