and opened his eyes. It IS this
heart-revealing power OF the book
that makes it 50 valuable in both
pulpit and inquiry room.
All! there is many one among
my readers who can testify how
the precious honey from heaven
brought light and joy to his eyes
when dimmed by sorrow. The ex-
ceeding rich and infallible promises
were not only sweet; they we're IL
lumining. They lighted up the
valley # the shadow Of death;
they showed how crosses can be
turned into crowns and how loses
can brighten into glorious gains.
When am in the sick room | al
ways dip my rod into the honey
comb of the fourteenth chapter of
John. 1t brings the Master there
with his words of infinite comfort.
One of my noblest Sunday school
teachers 50 fed on this divine honey
that on her dying bed she said,
My path through the valley is
long, but it is bright al the way"
Nothing opens the sinners eyes
to see himself and the Savior of
sinners like the simple word. The
Bible is the book to reveal iniquity
in the secret parts. If young
man will dip his rod into this warn
ing, Look not upon the wine when
it is red," he may discover that
there is a nest of adders in the
glass. # the skeptic and scoffer
can be induced to taste some of
that honey which Christ gave to
Nicodemus, he may find hell ire
mendous reality TO be stunned,
and heaven q glorious reality to be
gained
Brethren in the ministry, am
confident that our chief business
is not only to eat hugely of this
divine, enlightening honey, but to
tell people where to dip their rods.
A distinguished theological pro-
fessor said to me: ''1f l should re-
turn to the pastoral charge If
church, I should do two things. |
would make more direct personal
efforts for the conversion Of souls
and 1 would spend no time on the
rhetoric of my sermons. ! shouId
saturate my mind with Bible truth
and then deliver that truth in the
most simple language l could
command"
The honey from heaven lies
abundant on the ground. May
God help US to show It to the

HONEY OF GODS WORD.

y singular incident IN Ola II e.
brew history illustrates the sweet
ness and light that flow from Gods
blessed word. Jonathan was lead
ing the army of Israel in pursuit
OF the Philistines, and King Saul
had forbidden the troops to taste
of food during the march. When
the troops reached a forest where
the bees had laid up their abun-
dant stores, several honeycombs
were found lying upon the earth.
Jonathan-nOt having heard of the
royal edlct-put forth the rod in
his hand and dipped it in a honey
comb, and put it to his mouth, and
his eyes were enlightened" Re
treatment came to his hungry
frame and enlightenment to his
eyes. which were dim with faint
ness and fatigue.
What beautiful parable this in
Cident furnishes to set forth one of
the manifold blessings of Gods
word! In the superbly sublime
nineteenth Psalm, David pronoun-
Ces that word to be sweeter than
honey and the droppings of the
honeycomb. In the same passage
he declares that sit is pure, en-
tightening the eyes" Again the
Psalmist says: The entrance of
Thy word giveth light" 1t is not
the careless reading. or the listless
hearing of the book, but its en-
trance into the soul which pro-
duces this inward illumination
There is a sadly increasing ignor-
ance of the scriptures; when read
publicly in the sanctuary thous-
ands give but little heed with the
ear and none at all with the heart.
They do not take the vitalizing,
Heaven sent truth into their souls
as Jonathan took the honey into
his system.
But when the word is partaken
of hungrily, and the Holy Spirit
accompanies it, there is a revela-
ton made to the heart like that
which the poor blind boy had after
the operation of a skillful oculist
His mother led him out-of doors,
and, taking eff the bandage. gave
him his first view of sunshine and
sky and flowers "Oh, mother .
he exclaimed, "whY did you not
tell me it was so beautiful" The
tears started as she replied: 81
tried to tell you, my dear, but you
could not understand me-" SO the
spiritual eyesight must be opened
in order that the spiritual beauty
and wisdom and glory of the divine
word may be discerned. Many q
poor sinner has never found out
what glorious gospel our gospe
is until he has swallowed the honey
for himself.
| It is more than light, for it is ar
enlightener. Not only does it re
veal the grandest, sublimest ano
most practical truths, but it i'm

makes the blind to see, and the
strong sight all the stronger. Who
of US has been sorely perplexec
about questions of right and wrong
and been puzzled as to our duty
has not caught new views and true
views as soon as we dipped our rod
into the honeycomb? Once when
was sadly perplexed about the
question OF changing my field Of
labor-which would have changed
the whole current of my life

KENNEHEC ICE.
Prospects That About 500, o0O Tons Will be
Shipped, This Season.

How long will it be before the ship
ping of ice will begin on the kennebec?'
was the question asked by Journal man
of Geo. n. Lawrence, one of the leading
ice dealers of this section.
1--WE have some vessels now on the way
to our ice houses" said Mr.. Lawrence.
"Thcrc will be about 500, 600 tons shipped
from the Kennebec this season, not as
much as was sent out last year. The &c
mand for the ice of this section during the
coming season will not be as great as it
was last, owing to the cut on the Hudson
being sufficient to supply the wants in
that part of the country. OF course the
usual trade in Philadelphia, Baltimore,
Richmond, and the places in that section
will be supplied. Regarding the price
nothing as yet can be definitely stated. "

AMUSEM ENTS.
The Al. G. Field MinstreIs.

The AL q, Field Minstrels will be the
attraction at the Opera house, Tuesday
April Ii. and the general interest in the
entertainment gives assurance that the
visit of the company this season will be
marked by success in financial as well
as an artistic sense. In every city in
which the company has appeared this sea
son, it is said the press announced
crowded houses and enthusiastic approval
by brilliant audiences. Instead of cheap
enlng the company, as so many managers
do, on account of the hard times, Mr..
Field has added a grand spectacular bur
lesque on Aladdin, or the Wonderful
Lamp. in which the whole company
take part, and which is said TO be equally
as gorgeously mounted as the original
production.

THO FINE MEN
Secured by Manager Burnham for His Ken.
nebec Team.

Manager Burnbam has succeeded. since
leaving Augusta, in landing two players,
for whom he has had the lines out for
some time, but whom he had almost des-
paired OF signing, owing to the great COM
petition for their seryices-both being
wanted by other league and association
teams. These men are Michael Doherty,
the crack third bascman of last years New
Haven team, and NJ. f. Flynn of Lowell,
well known catcher.
Doherty was recommended to Mr..
Burnham by two different ex-managers of
Connecticut, and by one of the managers
of the Eastern League, as by far the
finest third baseman of the Connecticut
League. Mr.. Durham believes that he
will be one of the fastest men in the New
England League. He is thoroughly tenn
perate in his habits, and can always be
relied upon to do his best work.
The signing of this reliable third base
man will probably mean that King, whose
splendid hitting and base running abli-
ties will probably insure him regular
place on the team, will be transferred to
some other position. Dohcrty is 81 years
of age, weighs 165 pounds and is feet,
IL inches high. He is q good batsman
and an exceptionally good infielder
Mr.. Burnham feels that in N. f. Flynn
of Lowell, he will have one Of the most re-
liable backstops in the league He has done
some fine work with tho Matthews of
Lowell, and is said to be very promising
player. He is feet, s inches in height,
and weighs 100 pounds He is said to be
very suappy thrower to bases.
Flynn is prime favoritc in his own
city and was wanted by Lowell. Some
time ago he promised Mr.. Burnham to
sign with him, and, despite the efforts
that have been made to induce him to go
elsewhere, he has kept his word. Flynn
is a catcher who can stand lots of work,
and will probably do the bulk of the catch
ing for the Kcnnebec team the coming
season.

The jury were instructed that to entitle
the plaintiff to recover, it was incumbent
upon him to prove personal promise on
the part of the defendant to assume and
paw to the plaintiff, the sum Of S72, as n
part of the consideration of the loan. The
statute of frauds was not involved in the
inquiry 1t was not necessary that prior
to the defendants promise to assume and
pay this sum of S72 to the plaintiff, there
should have existed "a personal liabil-
itv on the part of the defendant as
member of the union" The other re-
ouested instructions were fully covered
bv the charge The testimony was con-
hicting and if it cannot be said that the
report shows clear preponderance Of evil
dence in favor of the plaintiff, there was
sufficient to support the verdict, and we
find no justification for setting it aside.
Exceptions and motion overruled.
