seems 10 me that the general spirit OF
the word of God indicates what ought
to be the great characteristics of church
music.
And l remark, in the first place, o

adaptiveness to devotion. Music that

room, may be inappropriate in church.
Glees, madrigals, ballads, may be as

church music has only one design, and
that is devotion, and that which comes
with the toss, the swing and the display

DR.. Talmage to-day discussed q
most attractive department of re-
ligious worship-the service Of song.
II ideas will be received with interest
by all who love to lift their voices in
praise in the Lords house. The text
is Nehemiah 1907: And they had
two hundred forty and five singing men
and siIging women"
The best music has been rendered un
der trouble. The first duet that know
anything of was given by Paul and
Silas when they sang praises to God
and the prisoners heard them. The
Scotch Covenanters, bounded by the
dogs of persecution, sang the psalms
of David with more spirit than they
have ever since been rendered. The
captives in the text had music left in
them, and declare that if they could
find, amid all their trials, two hundred
and forty and five singing men and
singing women then III this day Of
Gospel sunlight and free from all per-
seoution there ought to be "a great
multitude of men and women willing
TO sing the praises of God. All our
churches need arousal on this subject.
Those who can sing must throw their
souls into the exercise, and those who
cannot sing must learn how, and it
shall be heart TO heart, voice to voice,
hymn to hymn, anthem to anthem,
and the music shall swell jubilant with
Thanksgiving and tremulous with par
don.
Have you ever noticed the construc-
ton of the human throat as indicative
of what God means us 10 do with II?
In only an ordinary throat and lungs
there are Ia direct muscles and 80 in
direct muscles that can produce very
great variety of sounds. What does
that mean? 1t means that you should
sing. Do you suppose that God, who
gives us such n musical instruments as
that, intends us to keep it shut? Sup
pose some great tyrant should get pos
session of the musical instruments of
the world and should lock up the or
gan Of Westminster abbey, and the
organ Of Lucerne, and the organ at
Haarlem, and the organ at Freiburg,
and all the other great musical instru-
ments Of the world. You would call
such o man as that a monster, and yet
you are more wicked il, with the human
voice, a musical instrument Of more
wonderful adaptation than all the mu-
steal instruments that man ever Gre
ated, you shut it against the praise Of
God.

Should speak their Joys abroad.
, Music seems to have been born in the
soul of the natural world. The omnipo-
tent voice with which God command
ed the world into being seems to linger
yet with its majesty and sweetness, and
you hear it in the grainfield, in the
swoop of the wind amid the mountain
Businesses, in the canary's warble and
the thunder shock, in the brooks tin
kle and the oceans paean. There are
soft cadences in nature and loud notes,
some Of which we cannot hear at all
and others that are so terrific that we
cannot appreciate them.
The animalculae have their music,
and the spicula Of hay and the globule
of water are as certainly resonant with
the voice Of God rs the highest heavens
In which the armies Of the redeemed
celebrate their victories. When the
breath Of the flower strikes the air. and
the wing of the freely cleaves 1t. there
10 sound and there is melody and as
TO those utterances of nature which
seem harsh and overwhelming, it is as
when you stand in the midst Of great
orchestra, and the sound almost rends
your ear because you are too near
TO catch the blending of the music,
80, my friends, we sHnd too near the
desolating storm and the frightful
whirlwind TO catch the blending Of the
music, but when that music rises to
Al ,, .nI ba IN ~, hlo holm IT
who float above us, then l suppose the
harmony is as sweet as it as tremendous,
in the judgment day, that day Of tumult
and terror, there will be no dissonance
10 those who can appreciate the music.
1t will be as when sometimes great
organist, In executing some great piece,
breaks down the instrument upon
which he is playing the music. So,
when the great march of the judgment
day is played under the hand Of earth
quake, and storm and confagration,
the world itself will break down with
the music that is played on it. The
fact is, we are all deaf, or we should
understand that the whole universe is
but one harmony-the stars of the
night only the ivory keys OF a great
instrument on which Gods fingers play
the music of the spheres.
Music seems dependent on the law OF
acoustics and mathematics, and yet
where these laws are not understood at
all the art is practiced. There are to-
day 500 musical journals in China. Two
thousand years before Christ the Egyp-
tians practiced this art. Pythagoras
learned it. Lasus Of Hermione wrote
essays on it. Plato and Aristotle intro
duced il into their schools, but have
not much interest in that. My chief in
terest is in the music of the Bible
The Bible, like a great harp with in
Vulnerable strings, swept by the fingers
Of inspiration, trembles with It. So far
back as the fourth chapter Of Genesis
you find the first organist and harper
Jubal. So far back as the thirty-frst
chapter of Genesis you find the first
choir. All up and down the Bible you
find sacred mudc-at weddings, at In
Angurations, at the treading Of the wina
press. The Hebrews UNDERWOOD how q

DAVID PARRET.
THE KEEPER OF THE SEAL.

washington cor N. Y. Tribune.l
The keeper of the great seal and
Nestor of the public service, George
Bartle, died recently at the advanced
age of So, having held the same place in
the department of state for more than
half century. In the passing of this
gentle old man the government loses
one of it's most loyal and valuable
servitors, the city an honored citizen,
and one more link between the past
and the present is broken. Born in AL
exandria, Va, where the influence of
Washington's personality is felt more
than in any other city in the union, so
identified with the Father of His Coun-
try with its commercial and political
life on the day the British fleet sailed
down the Potomac after destroying the
capital, Mr.. Bartle grew up in an en-
vironment that inspired patriotism,
and as boy acquired a love for his
country, an admiration for it's fathers
that never left him. No one ever had a
greater respect for patriotic traditions.
His pride was the great seal Of the
United States, which was intrusted to
his care in 1852, for. although the sec

the enormous production of the Cripple
Creek mines.
Gold will continue to increase, yet
doubtless one of the phases of it's rise
will be boarding it in greater quantities
by governments and the well-to-do
classes; and it will be expended more
lavishly, too, enabling the common
classes to get greater share of it.

GREAT COLI. PRODJCTION.

(, The present enormous production Of
geld is the noteworthy outcome OF more
intense and intelligent efforts in mining
fields. In the economic world the ques-
ton is now changing from What can
be done OF secure more gold?7 to What
can be done with the enormous guam
) tity preduced?" One can refer 10 The
subject now without being accused OF
political bias. Itis,true that gold IS alb
sorbed more and more in the arts and
jewels Of fine gold are more numerous
than ever. The yellow metal is coming
from the gold fields in ever Increasing
volume. To appreciate the growth Of
the output it is necessary to resort to
figures. In the period between 1851 and.
1860 the average annual output was
s15.745,260: between 1881 and 1890. it was
s1oe, oo5, $50; between 1881 and 1899. S204. :
RS, 500. This year it Will reach the
enormous volume of $3.50, 600, 600
The great increase in gold production
is due to the exploitation OF new gold
fields and improved processes of secur-
ing it. While the ounce OF gold is worth
s20.67, just the same as it has been
worth for over fifty years, yet the cost
of producing the ounce of gold has de-
clined. Before 1850 by far the greatest
part of the gold supply came from pla-
Ger mining. Other methods came into
use, yet the last great impetus IN the
worlds production of gold came with
the perfection of the cyanide process,
which is responsible for the great pro-
duction in South Africa The gold in
the Rand is in the form of sedimentary
deposits, the ore being coarse grained
sandstone, some of these grains being
together by a collaborating cement that
contains . per cent or less of pyrites
The gold is SO finely divided that the
ordinary process of crushing it and run
ming it over amalgam plates of quick
silver results in the precipitation of not
more than so per cent. The rest forms
part Of kind of slime called "tailings,
and under the old methods before tbs
introduction of the cyanide process this
was lost. A small cyanide plant, III
which a weak solution of cyanide of pc.
tassium was used to take up the gold il
the tailings, was introduced in tht
Rand in 1890. Proving successful, the
process was rapidly adopted by all th'
mines, and this is chiefly responsible,
for the enormous increase in the South
African supply since that time. Tn,
same process also has made possible

The result of the election in Iowa is
destined to be one of the most far
that has been achieved since the ma
tional election of 1896. With Senator
Allison holding the place that he does
in the United States senate as a pre-
eminent authority on all matters of
finance and Col. Henderson the chosen
leader of the house and already the
chairman of the house caucus commit
tee on finance, the great Hawkeye state
is naturally expected to take the lead
in shaping the coming financial legisla-
ton. Iowa has placed itself a the head
of the republican party and Will now
act as its standard bearer.
Under these circumstances the eyes
of the nation We're naturally turned
towards this state during the recent
elections and the result has sent joy to
the hearts of every sound-money man
in the nation. The Iowa campaign was
