DIR. TALMAGE IN RUSSIA.
An Infant Baptism Russian Wedding and Solemn
Church Service.
lcopyright. 1ooO. the chrlstlan Herald. N. yl

oyerpowered with the solemnities.
There are no seats. and so all stand
except as they kneel. Side by side
the affluent and the beggared the rich
ly robed and the ragged, those hard in
crime and innocent childhood. Many
thousands, all bowling, all making the
sign OF the cross, many of them not
only kneeling, but reverently putting
their forehead down against the cold
stone floor
THE ROYAL DOOR" OPENS.
In the midst OF the service there
comes down upon the assemblaEe an
awful hush. and the multitudes are
as silent as the dead, when the royal
uoor of embellished panels back of
me altar slowly opens, and the chief
vi 1ne ecclesiastics enters, carrying the
molly eucharist" and to offer prayers
Tor the imperial household. We lean
AGAINST a pillar of lapis lazuli and in
naie the redolcnce of the incense swung
from the censors, and gaze with en-
chantnent now at the figures In bronze
representing THE Alteration of the
Magi," and now at Il group showing
us the Angel at the Tomb" and then
looking at very dark blocks of stone
illumined with flashes of light. so that
the granite seems to have been cut on
OF some midnight irradiated with au-
fora borealis A building worth king
tuary OF many who have not where to
lay their heads. All up and down this
immensely of architecture n kissing of
the pictures of Christ, and a lighting
OF candles by worshipers who have
purchased them at tho doorways. and
then these candles devoutly placed in
sockets provided for them. Oh, what
music! 1t sounds as IL 1t rained from
heaven. 1t seems made up OF the sub
FINEST parts of great oratorios. Even
the echoes seemed charged with SOL
emnities The reverberations of that
service will linger in our ears until they
are closed forever. What procession
Of grand marchesi What an enthrone-
mont of hallelujahs! What doxologies
in stone! That cathedral is the frozen
prayer OF n great nation.
WORTH A JOURNEY.
It is worth a journey across all the
continents and all the seas to attend
the 10 o'clock Sabbath morning service
in st. 1saacS Church in st. Petersburg
How many superstitions mingled in the
service do not conjecture. 1 cannot
he critical. 1t is the best way of feel
ing their way up to God and heaven
that they know OF. That they are in
earnest no one who has been present
at such n service can doubt for a
moment. They do the best they can in
the way of worship. 1 have no doubt
there will be millions of people in
heaven who never thought as we do.
The thirty or forty genial Christians
with whom we sat at the Lords Sup
per In Holy Communion an hour af-
| terward in the British and American
chapel are not all the people who will
get to heaven from St. Petersburg.

Joke on Judge Stein.

The Joke is on Judge Stein. 5. + Nc
Knight of Central City, came to town
last Saturday, to meet Miss Daisy M.
Green of Valdsota, Ga, who was to ar
rive that day and become the bride OF
MIR. Mcknight. He went to the depots
to meet the trains from Kansas City, but
the young lady did not arrive. SO he
hitchcd up his team and wedt home. Had
he remained till the train from the west
arrived he would have met his bride to
be. Not meeting Inn, she went to the
Fourth Avenue hotel.
Early Saturday morning, the expect
ant bridegroom came to town again and
begun a hunt Tor the lady. He finally
found her at the hotel Then he went to
the officers of the probate judge, and
found Judge Stein sweeping his Office.
He secured the license, and said he want
ed the Judge, to tie the knot. The Judge
wanted to go to Colony, but he wanted
to obligc the young man, so he promised
to stay and unite the young people,
The young man then returned to the
hotel, and, after while-about train
time-he came back and said the lady
preferred to hayc minister perform the
ceremony. The Judge said all right, and
he grabbed his coat and made run Tor
for the depot, as the train had arrived.
When within a block of the depot, he
saw the train pull out So he failed to
get the marriage fee and didn't go to
Colony. However, Judge Stein is good
natured and he stands the chalfingo of his
friends without exhibiting any ill-humor.
But, meantime, the young folks went
to the Methodist parsonage, where Rev.
Church united them in marriage, and
they went home as happy as could be.
