Sermon on Salvation.

Rev. ]. D. c. Hanna preached an inter-
esting sermon on Sunday morning in
Union M. e. Church, from the second verse
of the 9Sth Psalm 1.-The Lord has made
known his salvation" In his remarks he
said tha word Salvation is full OF hope
and happiness The business man when
threatened with failure fully understands
the meaning Of the term when friend
comes forward and says / will aid to tide
you over your financial difficulties. He ex-
planned His subject still further by refer
ence to persons being rescued from sink
ing vessel and also from burning dwell
ing, In order to show the relation Christ
bore to sinful men. 1t was not beL
cause of the intrinsic worth of men that
led God to make known his plan of Saliva
ton. 1t was simply through love that he
was led to give his son that men through
him might Inherit eternal life.
In all departments Of life more good
could be effected through love than
through force. 1t is the soft answer that
turneth away wrath, and leads men to
God. He illustrated the power of love by
referring to the wife holding on to the
abusive and drunken husband, when
neighDors and friends looked for her to
cast him off forever. 1t was the same
with tho mother who holds on to her way
ward boy after there Is little il any hope
Tor his refpfmatlOn.
He narrated an incident in his own life
in order to show he had reason for thank.
fulness for an escape from death. He had
gone with a number of companions to
bathe In pond. AS the water was deep
he used a rail to enable him to swim.
While in the deepest place. however, the
rail turned over, throwing him off and
floated beyond his reach. He then
plunged around for a short time, while
his companions, thinking he was playing
stood on the bank, laughing at his strug-
giles.
A brawny Scotchman, however, at this
juncture, cried out, the boy is drowning,
and fastening to him succeeded in reach
grave, as he was about sinkingslfor the
last time For this timely act he was
duly thankful, but as the man ran no
great risk, and experienced no serious in
convenience, In his act, how much more
should we be thankful to Christ who, died
on the cross that all should inherit eternal
life who believe in him.
TO further illustrate why all should love
Christ and follow his precepts, he referred
to man with a large family who was
drafted in the late war, where a neighbor
came forward and volunteered to take his
place without fee or reward.
The substitute, however, was killed In
battle, and the man whose place he so
generously took, expressed his sorrow in
the most heartfelt terms. Our indebted.
ness to Christ was equally as great and we
should show 1t by our deeds.
He also spoke Of a woman who in saving
her child from fire received such injuries
as to disfigure her hands for life yet her
daughter whose life she saved esteemed
them beautiful, and we should esteem
the wounds Of Christ as his death on the
cross has made our salvation possible,

agency of an internal explosion. In an
interview Captain Wiley said:

cause of the disaster I reply that l

to actual facts l do not believe there
is anybody who knows Just how the
unfortunate affair happened.
without having had opportunity to
examine the wreck below water. I
would say that the Maine was blown
up by an internal explosion. There Is
one deck above water, which Is COM
pletely turned over by the explosion.
The deck is bottom side up, with the
deck frame on top. That looks to me
as ~ the destructive force came from
within. If mine did the work and
played SO much havoc with the upper
deck, where must the bottom be? Can
she have any? Yet they say they have
found some of the bottom intact. My
opinion is that If the affair had oc-
Cured in an English harbor there
would not be one man in a hundred
who would say external cause after
looking at the wreck as 1t Is today. I
heard that the Spanish divers found
piece Of the forward turret. do not
believe mine in the harbor would
have broken the turret, while an in
ternal explosion would"

For Starving Cubans.
Havana, March 21.-Little work was
done on the wreck Of the Maine yester-
day by the divers or contractors. The
city has been quiet after the festivities
OF Saturday night lasting until early
yesterday morning at the Tacon thea
ter, where a. dramatic representation
was given In aid of the fund for the
Spanish army. There was plenty of
enthusiasm in the crowded theater.
Every patriotic sentiment was cheered
to the echo. but there were no sensa-
tional features The proceeds are not
all In yet, but 1t is believed that they
will amount to between $50, 900 and $4O,-
900 in gold. Even with the enormous
prices paid for boxes and seats 1t was
impossible that any such figures as
$4,000 or 100000 could be realized, as
was hoped by some.

single thread was first thrown around it,
but If 1t waited until thread after thread
were thrown about its body it would be
practically helpless and become an easy
victim to the enemy. A man had said to
him but yesterday wish could give up
certain practice, but have become so ad.
dicted to it that flnd it very difficult to
do so.
:. Tho habit had grown with the lapse of
time, and by its frequent repetition had
become almost like links Of a chain. He
also spoke particularly Of a boy he knew
who had formed a habit of biting his flng-
er nails. He was demonstrated with re-
peatediy, but he found 1t difficult to avoid
the practice. The same difficulty was
found in getting rid Of every bad practice,
including drinking. smoking chewing,
swearing and falsifying. The proper way
was to avoid them In the first place, and
snve trouble and also modification il not
disgrace. Tho only proper way to avoid II
repetition of bad acts was to pray to God
for strength and he will enable all who do
SO to resist temptation and to live useful
and honorable lives

Labor Is Honorable.

On the other hand we may be born in a
sphere little higher than that for which
God intends us. We may be born in a
castle, and play In costly conservatory,
and feed high bred pointers and angle for
goldfish in artificial ponds, and be familiar
with princes, yet God may better have fit
ted us for carpenters shop, or dentists
forcops, or a weayer's shuttle, or black
smiths forge. Tho great thing Is to find
just the sphere for which God intended us
and then to occupy that sphere and occupy
1t forever. Here Is a man God fashioned
to make plow. There is man God fash
ionGd to make q constitution. The man
who makes the plow is just as honorable
as the man who makes the constitution.
