field.

The foot. ball game between Miffsin
and Bloomfield alias Harrisburg, at
Newport Fair, last Thursday, was a
very close and interesting one. The
game was called at $3.50 o'clock, with
the boys on the gridiron. Being the
first game of the season, it was found
necessary to pay bu. 20 minute halves.
.M,ffhn won the toss, lined up, put
the ball in play with '.kick.off,' and
made touch down in the first FIVE
minutes, Patterson making the run
from Bloomfield's 25 yard line. Ow
ing to the wind bsing hard against
Mifflin's kick for goal, the bali was
blown about three feet wide of the
mark, letting them but points.
B!oomSsld then kicked off the bah.
Miffiin got it on their 25 yard line,
formed good interference and
fetched it halfway back to the cen
ter, wbe-e the two teams battled till
the first half was through, fndiag
Bloomfield on Mifflin's 25 yard line,
looking rather sad.
The second half was started with
o kickoff by Bloomfield, who with
their pngilistie apparatuses in readi-
ness had vowed in their hearts to
take the enemy dead or alive.
Though having been coached by a
Harrisburg man for over a week be-

professionals from that city on their
team, Mifflia held them down till

TEACHING POINTS.

INTRoDUCTIoN.-This story. so fascinating to
boys, is at many points illustrative. The colos-
sal son of Anak was such an enemy as Israel,
as well as other ancient nations. would expect
to meet.
% " 1910. David's preparation. David
had prepared himself for advancement while
shepherd by learning to do what he had to do
well. He mastered the harp, so that he could
with his harp master Saul's troubled spirit He
mastered the sling. so that in his hands 1t was
almost equal to modern rifle. He was saga
cious in turning to advantage his experience.
He had not learned how to use the sword or to
fight under armor. Contrary to surface appear
ances he was really more mighty man than
Goliath.
2) V. 41-47. Goliath and David give the
customary defiance on the field. The boasting
giant made fatal mistake In under estimating
his opponent. David was but a boy; but he had
skill. brave heart, and an implicit trust in
God he fully believed his cause was right
Goliath by loud words and threats sought to in
timidate him; but he was probably himself, by
the very mystery attending his adversary, at the
last moment intimidated. David really had little
reason to fear the blatant giant; he couli, by
his swifter movements, keep out of his reach.
How often are men in modern times deceived by
appearances. The small body. the minority

mightier than the great body, the multitudinous
church,
(3) " 1851. Goliath is vanquished by the
shepherd boy. When the test came how quick
ly was David's superiority proved. How quick
ly was the alarming enemy PROSTATE and head
less. In how brief time had David. when the
opportunity came, gained the fame of hero.
So it has been with many a colossal enemy
of the right. When the test comes the wrong
cause will go down; It's head will be discovered
from its body. So 1t was with polytheism. SO
it was with negro slavery in America. So may
1t be with incompetence.
Achieve the highest possible skill where

no human being.-Do not mistate Boosting for
courage.--Be doubly armed in tie conscious
ness that your cause is Gods cause.

ONE MILLION PRISONERS.

The Russian government is notorious
ly behind with it's statistics, especially
with those statistics from which we can
form congratulations as to the social posi-
ton of the people. Prison statistics in
particular lag far behind; but at last we
have these up to the end of 1893, and
they are startling. In 1890 the number
OF prisoners in government gaols was
764,373, and for the subsequent years
S17,945. 855. 1856. and $40 729 If to these
we add the wretches in military prisons,
the peasants in the village houses of
correction, and the prisoners in the
Transcaspian district, we have total of
little short of million in the Tsar's do
minioD who are under lock and key.
These incredible figures do not include
the unfortunates transported to Siberia,
who in the years named numb cred 49,
1863, 20, JOG. 20,727, 17,160, total of TO-.
300. Nor do they include 1928 convicts
sent within the same period from Odessa
to the penal stations of the inhospitable
island of Saghalien. Considering the
vast multitudes in gaol, the cost of pris
on equipment and maintenance is moder-
ate, amounting in these four years to
trif1e under seven and a half million
pounds sterling, or say thirty shillings
per prisoner per annum. Cheap! How
is it done? We would be doing the
Russian government an injustice if we
omitted to state that the spiritual and
literary necessities of their million pris-
oners are provided for. In the budget
for 1893, amounting to IA, 1853, 095 roubles

SAMUEL XVII. 1851.
INTRODUCTION.

We come low to the story which never
fails to captivate the boys. The boys
can be trusted, against all objections OF
the critics, to preserve it through the
generations. Let it be conceded that,
in the form in which it comes to US. it is
a compilation by later Hebrew editor,
probably later than the Septuagint
Version. B. G. 200; not unlikely later
even than Josephus, A. D. l00,-who, IN
the accessories of the story, took slight
mains to be exact. The fact that IN the
Santuaoint Version and in the Latin
Vulpate these passages are wanting; en-.
II: - 81; VS.. Al; VS.. 54-5o; en-. 10; JILL
l7-19.-and the further fact that jose
nhus tells the story with freedom from
the improbable statements that DaVlo
was called a second time from his sheep
tending, and, after having been Saul 8
youthful poet-laureate and armor- bearer,
was not so much as known by Saul, and
instead makes David go from Saufs
court directly to the field OF romantic
confict,-these facts are, with most
scholars. decisive against the entire IN
teor;tv of our record-But these IN
accurate accessories do not toucn Inc
real attraction, nor the credibility, OIL tne
essential story. 1t is such an incident
of ancient warfare as harmonizes with
Homeric legends of battles staked on the
encounters of individual champions
And the overgrown sons of Anak appear
as a succession of Philistine giants,
needing severally to be treated by He
brew warriors as David served Goliatn.
We read Il Oh. 20: 4-S) of three other
giants being slain,-Sippai by Sibbecal;
Lahmi. tie brother of Goliath, by eliza
nan. a Bethlehemite; giant with six
fingers on each hand and six toes on
each foot, by Jonathan, nephew OF
David. (See also ii Sam. Il: lo-22)
That David in his youth should have
had part in these exhibitions OF personal
prowess, seems not only in accord with
his character, but necessary to his mill
tary fame, the natural fruitage OF which
was the throne. In that age the one
way to the craftsmanship was by renown
as a warrior.-The Story, because OF
it's appeal to the human love OF romance
will, after all it's sitting, remain substan-
tiallv intact

LESSON STORY.

Picture in the mind the Valley OF
Elah, in the south of Judah. See the
mountain slope at the northward Gov
cred with the tents and booths OF the
army of Israel. At the foot of the
mountain see stony brook channel; dry
now, but torrent-swept in the rainy sea-
son. On the plain beyond the ravlne,
stretching to the southwark. is the en-
campment of the army of the Phillstlnes.
The Philistine army has come to invade
the country of Israel; the army OF Israel
has come to the frontier, to resist the
further march of the robber- horde. The
two armies are waiting and dreading
deadly encounter.
From the Philistine army giant, Go
Hath by name, comes forth, and march
ing to the southern side of the separat-
ing ravine. shouts defiance to the Is
raelites. He demands that the Israel
ties shall send forth warrior to meet
him in single combat, and that the OPP
posing armies abide the issue of the per-
sonal battle.
This demand, strange as it may seem
to us, accords with an ancient custom in
warfare. Homer describes Gil. III.:4)
how Paris challenged Menelaus to de-
eide the Trojan war by single combat.
Livy Q24) says that the Romans and
Adams agreed that combat between
Horatii and Curiatii should decide which
should peaceably rule the other. The
giant of the Philistine army is acting
therefore according to presidents.
Goliath is not himself Philistine: he
is of the Anakim, the giants OF southern
Judah. which frightened the ten spies in
the days of Moses; he had been, because
of his extraordinary stature, adopted by
the Philistines as their representative or
champion. His size is variously esti-
mated. Some report him to be eleven
feet in height; other accounts gave his
height as about seven feet, and this is
sufficient.
Goliath has helmet Of brass upon his
head, he wears heavy brass coat, and
greaves of brass upon his legs; he has a
javelin of brass rising from his back
above his shoulders. Decidedly he is a
man of brass. His FURNISHED iron spear
is for size like a weaver's beam, the
weight of it being not less than one hun
dred and fifty pounds.
Hear his boastful challenge: Why are
ye come out to set your battle in array9
Am I not Palestine. and ye servants
to SauI9 Choose a man for you, and
let him come doacn to me. If he be able
to fight acith me and kill me. then acilI
ace be your servants; but If / prevail
against him and Kill him, then shall ye
be our servants, and serve as. defy
the armies of Israel this dag; giue me
man that zoe may fight together. This
challenge is varied at times by per-
sonal challenge to Saul in these words
las the Targum tells ue); Ye men of Is
rael. ichat noble eGploit has Saul the
son of Kish of Gibeah done that ge
should hare made him king Deer yOuP
II he be a hero. let him come dOlcn him
self and fight me, but il he be a tcedk
or cosrardiy man then choose you
q man that he mag come doaen to me.
Saul is not the man be was. He tiuds
ample reason for not endangering his
own life in such deadly encounter.
