AWFUL MASSACRE OF CHRIS.
IIANS.

Details of the massacre of Chris
tians In Macedonia by MussuImen
are received from Salonica. Horrible
outrages have been committed in the
village of Bituch, in Northern Alba
MIA. A horde of Mohamedans cruel
lied every Christian male in the place,
fixing them to trees with stakes
driven through their hands and feet.
Many OF the women were outraged,
and all were carried off to Mohame-
dan harems. Children were chopped
up before their parents' eyes.
At Gruma, South of Butcha.
women were assaulted in front of
their husbands and fathers; men
were terribly mutilated, having
their ears, fingers, toes and limbs cut
of. Many children were drowned.
AT lsibaritz the entire population
was massacred after the victims flesh
had been sliced off. At Banishka
bonfire was made Of twenty Chris
tians. At Genevitza priest of the
Melukonics was tied in a sack and
thrown into the river.
The ring leader of the Mohame-
dams is q fanatic, Haiduk Islam, who
boasts Of having slaughtered 200
Giaours (infidels) with his own hands.
The Servian consul at Mitrovitza
estimates the number of Christians
killed at 470 men, lilo women and
430 children. He places the number
of Christian women assaulted at 3S5.
The Turkish authorities are in
different to the outrages, though they
were committed in the Sultan's do
main.

THE RELATION OF CHURCH MEM
BERS TO THE SUNDAY SCHOOL.
Essay by JnO. l.. BeaIe, of WestmOre-
land County, Va, Read Before the
Ministers and Laymen's Institute,
Held with Coan Baptist Church,
September goth and 3Oth. 1900

The Relation of Church Members to the Sun

attention to, my dear Christian brothers and sis
ters No one can regret more than myself that

were not selected TO air this subject and turn the
searchlight of study, learning and experience ON
every part OF it. Being in Richmond city years
ago, my attention was attracted to an enormous
pile OF building material in certain part of the
city. When mentioned it to n friend who lived
there he said, "That is to be our handsome new
city hail. III go there with you. They are busy
laying the foundation now." Arriving there the
courteous and gentlemanly superintendent of the
work kindly showed me how deep they had gone
down into mother earth and built a solid and Sc
cure wall of rock and cement for the building to
rest on, and remarked that of all the work about
the building that was the most important, as it's
resisting the wear and storms Of time depended on
a solid and secure foundation, and that no time
or money would be spared to makerit SO. Church
members are the foundation of our Sunday
Schools if they resting Christ the Solid Rock
and making n determined and daily effort to resist
the temptations of the world, the flesh and the
devil and to be like Christ Sunday Schools are
safe and secure. But if our Church members are
unreliable and Indifferent not seeming to have any
image OF loving Savior in their hearts to COM
fort, sustain and guide them among the tempta-
tions OF this world but drifting with and after
the sinful pleasures of the world, our Sunday
Schools are not on a solid foundation. 1t was my
pleasure some years since with an experienced
guide, to go over and examine every part of the
palatia ocean steamer, City OF Paris, at that time
plying between New York and Liverpool When
we came to the huge and powerful engines the
guide remarked that they were more important
and useful than any other part of the handsome
steamship, they furnished the motive power,
and unless they were in good order and working
she could not move. Church members are the mo-
tive power of our Sunday Schools-they cannot
move without them and you can tell the moment
you enter school if they are interested i'm it, and
working earnestly for its success or il they are in

The Santa Claus crank-we use
the word crank in lieu of stronger,
and what, perhaps, would be more
appropriate one-is again making
himself conspicuous. The Santa
Claus crank is cousin-german to the
fairy-tale crank. The former would
abolish Santa Claus, and the latter
would interdict the reading of fairy
tales by children. Both pose as
apostles of truth, and take the "high-
ly moral' ground that to permit a
child to believe in Santa Claus or
fairies is to condone the sin of
deception"
For our part, we thank God we
were once the victim of the deception,
and think it most unfortunate that
year by year among children the
period of the deception is being
curtailed. BE child never SO for
tunate in having Christmas presents
lavished upon it, half of the sweet
ness and light of Christmas goes out
of its life when it comes to realize
that Santa Claus is a myth; and with
the shattering of its faith in fairies
fall air castles which have given a
pleasure it will never know again.

BOLDEsT INCIDENT OF WAR.
Dewet's Force Galleped Full Speed
Through British Lines.

The details Of General De Vets
escape from the encircling British
Columns shows that it was one of the
boldest incidents of the war. When
Haasbroek's command joined De
Wet, December 18th, some fifteen
miles east of Thabanchu, General
Knox was only about an hour dis
tent and the Boer situation appeared
desperate, but De Wet was equal to
the occasion. Dispatching Haasbroek
westward to make a feint at Victoria
Mex, De Wet prepared to break
through the British columns at
Springhaau Mex Pass, about four
miles of broad, fat, unbroken ground.
At the entrance were two fortified
posts, while artillery. was posted
eastward, watching the Beers, Sud-
denly a magnificent spectacle was
presented. The whole Boer army,
of 25, 900 men, started at a gallop,
in open order, through the Mex.
President Steyn and Peit Fourie led
the charge, and De Wet brought mp
the rear. The British guns and
rifles doomed and ratified incessantly.
The Beers first tried the eastward
route, but, encountering artillery,
they diverged and galloped to the
foot of the hill to the eastward,
where the fire of only single post
was effective.
The whole maneuvre was piece
of magnificent daring, and its sue
cess was complete, IN spite of the
loss of fifteen FOUNDER and twenty.
Eve prisoners. The British force
detached after Hassbroek came In
contact with his command at night
fall. The Burghers were scattered,
and Welsh yeomanry galloped among
the retreating Beers.
An incident of the fight was the
gallop Of British ammunition
wagon right through the scattered
Beers, the gunners using their re-
volvers freely,
THE MosBY OF SOUTH AFRICA.
General Dewet is the Mosby of
South Africa. Like Mosby, he claims
the attention of fifty times his own
number Of men, and gets the better
of every engagement. Just when he
is entrapped is the time he is doing
the most effective work. Sooner or
later, probably, the British will wear
him out or kill him, but he is inter
estipg them very much just at the
present time.-StauntOn Nevs.

Their child is five years old, that it may be edu-
Gated; and every autumn finds our schools and
colleges hlled with bright young men and women
thirsting Tor knowledge. Surely no one can doubt
that this lis it should be- or hesitate to thank
God and rejoice But it should cause u.s. as Church
members, to realize our responsibility as to our
sunday Schools-as to their great value and i'm
portance for God and good as to our duty to see
that these children drilled and trained in our
sunday Schools and made familiar with Gods
holy word and His great love for them before
they go out from the influence of "A Christian home
ana are too weak of themselves to resist success

We're trained in their early lives in the Sunday
Schools, and all OF us know that our Churches are
sadly IN need of more consecrated men and women.
knowing this, and knowing that the growth or
decline, success or failure of our Sunday Schools
depends entirely on as Church members and
knowing that the greatest and best additions to
our Churches come from our Sunday Schools and
that the future hope of our Churches depends en-
tirely on our Sunday Schools, we should humbly
and reverently with one voice cry out
Come Holy Spirit heavenly dove.
With all Thy quickening powers;
Kindle fame of sacred love
In these cold hearts of ours"
And as we leave here and return to our homes and
Churches, each of us should examine ourselves and
see If we are doing all in power to encourage
and help our Sunday School, and if we are not let
us make an earnest and determined effort and pc
tition our heavenly Father to help us do what we
know is our duty.
have thus briefly, in my stupid and imperfect
way, tried to illustrate to you that Church men,
bers are the foundation, motive power, character
and life OF our Sunday Schools
Let us now think of the new life that our
Churches and Sunday Schools would spring into
If the influence for God and good that would be
exerted in our every home and community if every
Church member here would leave here determined
that no matter how little interest they had taken
in, or how much they had neglected the Sunday
School in the past, with Gods help in the future
every Sunday would find them at their Sunday
School, earnestly working and praying and willing
to do all in their power for its success No better
thing than the Sunday Sunday to develop and
cause to flourish and increase all that is best in
the character OF a Church member, and to make
them useful and helpful along every line of Church
work, and to train boys and girls to be Christ's
men and women has yet been discovered And no
Church member has ever done all he could for
the Sunday School in this life who wasn't n
bright, happy and useful Christian, or who failed
to have, when the cares OF this life ended, ''the

DIR. BR0ADDUS ON DIVORCES.

DEAR Bro. Belts: The matter
brought to my notice in your letter
is important, and | readily give YOU
my views in regard to it. The teach :
ing of the New Testament in refer
ence to divorce, and in regarde to
separation between husband and wife
where there is no divorce, is to be
found in Matthew 5: 9I-S2; Mark 10:
2-12; Romans z: 2-3; Ist Corinthians
2: 10-11.
From the passages in Matthew and
Mark it is clear that only adultery
by one of the parties can Justify
divorce, and it follows that human
laws that grant divorce for any
other cause violate the teaching Of
Christ, and should not In any case
receive the official sanction of a
minister by his uniting either of the
parties in marriages. From the
passage in Corinthians it appears
that there may In some cases be 8
separation (not a divorce) by the
mutual consent of the parties con-
cerned when there has been no
adultery, but it is expressly stated
that In such cases that the parties
must remain unmarried.
Thus We see that a minister yio-
lates the express command of our
Saviour who marries one divorced
on any ground except that He has
laid down.
But the question arises when the
parties have been divorced for Scrip
tural cause both or either of them
may marry again before the death
of one of them.
1t is universally agreed, / believe,
the guilty party may not marry
without sincere and deep repentance,
even if then.
The woman you refused to marry
was clearly not entitled to marry
again.
Butmay the innocent party marry?
This question has been answered |
believe afflrmatively by most Protes-
tant denominations and by most COM
dDQ
But l question the correctness of
this answer.
Nothing is said by our Saviour
about q second marriage, and in
Mark He insists with great solem-
nifty and strong emphasis ON the
close and inviolable character OF the
marriage relation.
The illusions to second marriage
both in Romans and in Corinthians
are predicated on the supposi ton
that one of the parties has died. Now
II one of the parties could marry
while both were living would there
not have been some hint of it in
some one of these passages, or else
where in the scriptures.
conclude then that a minister
should certainly not marry a person
who has been divorced for any other
than the scriptural cause, and even in
the latter case Gas there are, to say
the least, very strong doubts) it is
safest and best to decline to perform
the marriage ceremony.
| could not knowingly marry n
divorced person so long as the other
party was living.
1t might be said that this would
impose hardship on an innocent
person. | reply that such person
could doubtless get the services of a
minister willing to perform the
marriage ceremony, and that even if
this could not be done such person
had married with the risk of incurring
such hardship and must take the
consequences.
have given you briefly my view
of the matter and hope it may be of
some service to you.
Fraternally yours,
A. BRoADDUs.
