"a MISSION OF BREAD"

During the next two years he varied
his literary work by frequent preach
ing and lecture tours and an occasional
visit abroad. He had a big. warm
heart and generous impulses, and he
was interested in various philanthropic
movements, some Of them of wide
scope. His love Of such work was fos-
tered by his experience in 1892 when
he visited Russia with DR.. Klopsch on
"a mission of bread" first sending on
ahead the steamship Leo, laden with
$4,000 sacks of flour, the gift Of gener-
GUS Americans to the starving Russian
peasants. While in st. Petersburg the
Americans were summoned to Peter
hof, the imperial summer residence,
where they were presented to the Car
Alexander, the empress, Czarowitz
Nicholas, the present emperor, and 9th
er royalties. That the stalwart Ameri-
can preacher made an impression was
evident from the fact that the emperor
sent to the visitors handsome gifts Of
gold and silver. The enthusiastic mu-
inequalities of St Petersburg and Mos
cow gave them public fetes, and in the
former city the astOniShed divine was
carried on the shoulders of a cheering
Russian crowd in front Of the DONNA
Or town hall. DR.. Talmage often refer
red with kindling eye to this Russian
welcome, and he spoke many kindly
word for the young car. In later
years, with voice and pen, he greatly
helped the cause of Armenian, Cuban
and Porto Rican relief, in the great In
dia famine and few years ago in Chi
nese relief. Altogether with his splen-
did talent for reaching the popular
heart, 100000 was raised in these
various worldwide charities. He was a
member and active worker in a num-
Der Of charitable organizations, but in
these as in all others of the same char
acter, he invariably kept in the back
ground. He is one of the incorporators
of the Bowery mission of New York,
the pioneer of American rescue mis-
siOnS.
HIS WORK IN WASHINGTON.
In 1895 DR.. Talmage accepted for a
time a pastoral call from the First
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1902-04-21

Presbyterian church Ii Washington,
which is known as 'the church of the
presidents" many incumbents of the
White House having worshiped there
in former years. Among his parishion-
ers were President Cleveland, many
cabinet members and other high Off
Gals. He was the most popular minis
ter at the national capital, and his
church was crowded to the doors. But
urgent calls from other quarters were
multiplying, and he finally decided,
though not without reluctance, to give
up local pastoral work and devote him.
self exclusively to answering these de-
mands. He retired from active connec-
ton with the Washington church in
1900 and thereafter gave himself up
wholly to editorial work and preaching
and lecturing.
The passing years served to increase
his fame, and the announcement Of his
preaching was always sufficient to at
tract vast audience. His personal
mail was probably the largest of any
man in America outside of public Office.
There were thousands who wrote to
him, asking advice in spiritual things
and laying their hearts bare to one
whom they regarded as bearing a di-
vine mission and speaking with au-
thority."
DR.. Talmage's home at 400 Massa-
chusetts avenue, Washington, was a
handsome four story building, modern
in style. Here in the center of national
influence and culture the great preach
er dispensed his hospitality to guests
who visited him from all parts of the
world. His study was an ideal snug
gerry, lined with we'll filled bookshelves
and big, inviting, leather covered chairs
and settees. Books and periodicals were
everywhere. Near by was famous col
lection of relics from eastern lands,
trophies Of many journeys-rocks from
Sinai, pebbles from the brook Elah
(whence David took the stones with
which he slew Goliath), relics from the
Acropolis, from the Parthenon, from
Mars hill (where Paul preached to the
Athenians), from Sinai, Jerusalem, Oil
vet and even Calvary.
GREAT SERMONS AT SEVENTY.
Few men in literary life retained their
intellectual vigor so long. Even those

who knew HIN best could detect no
diminution in the force Of his elo-
quence and no dimming Of the luster
of his splendid periods though he had
turned seventy. His last sermons were
every whit as brilliant as those he COM
posed when in his prime. His eye was
as clear, his voice as flexible and reso-
nant and his step as elastic as though
he were not nearing that border land
"where burdens are laid down." Those
last few golden years were in some re-
spects the happiest of his life. Though
they were busy years, they still left
him some leisure. In the summer,
which he usually passed at his beauti-
full country home at Easthampton, N.
Y, he did an immense amount of liter
airy work. He was most agreeable
host and could recall with photograph
ic fidelity scenes and events long pass
ed, delighting his guests with such
"reminiscences. He was the personal
friend Of many leading Americans Of
the preceding half century, and his rec
objections of presidents, statesmen, au-
thors and other eminent people were
full Of interest. Few men possessed
the ability to tell a story so entertain
1ngly. He had the keeneSt sense of hu-
NOR and frequently set his audience in
roar by his droll wit and comic MINI
icry. But it was always good humored
and his wit, like buttoned foil, had a
point that hurt nobody. A master of
invective, he was kindly at heart and
never quarrelsome. Once when he was
asked why he allowed attacks upon
him to pass unheeded he answered
with characteristic story:

Saddened by the destruction Of his
third and most beautiful tabernacle,
DR.. Talmage for a time ceased active
pastoral work and went abroad on a
tour of the globe. He preached to large
audiences in Australia, New Zealand,
India and Great Britain and on his
return published an account Of his
journeyings in volume entitled 'The
Earth Girdled," which was widely cir
culated. He now devoted himself al
most exclusively to his editorial duties
on The Christian Herald, to which he
had been a regular weekly contributor
since 1873, becoming editor in chief in
1890. DR.. Louis Klopsch, the proprie-
tor of that journal, had been his init
mate friend and business associate for
many years. He had syndicated DR..
Talmage's sermons since 1885, furnish
ing them regularly every week to over
1900 newspapers. 1t is estimated that
the total number Of weekly readers
reached by the syndicate and through
other channels was not less than TO-
100000, an audience far more vast than
has ever been addressed by any other
writer or preacher in the world, ancient
or modern.

ELECTION METHODS IN PORTO
 RICO.

We have not the slightest doubt that public sentiment in this country will noisily condemn the election campaign methods of our recently acquired fel- low citizens of Porto Rico. A press dispatch from San Juan of the 18th instant says:
 San Juan, Porto Rico, October 1S.- There were riotings and shootings at political meetings in several towns yesterday. The most serious disturb ance was at Guayama large mob Of Republicans near there attacked three prominent federals, among whom was the local president of the party. Romaguera.
 "The federals returned the fire of their opponents and killed Elias Santos, a republican. and wounded others Romaguera was wounded. The three federals and eleven others were arrest ed and placed in jail.
 Tn shooting affair at Bayamon two men were wounded, and ct Humacao shots were fired in various parts of the city, but there were no casualties"
 But why should We judge these hot blooded children of the semi-tropics with thOughtless haste? Are we SO in
 
 that we can afford to cry 'shame!" at them? It is not so very many years since southern marksmen regarded the bashful carpet bagger as being in sea- son about election times and flushed him at all hours of the day and night. We krR5V what it is to resort to public violence upoi almost any provocati ton. The spectacL oi law and order over whelmed by flood of passion is not unfamiliar t the most inexperienced citizen. Besies, these simple minded creatures knGv nothing of the civilized substitutes ft the rife and the danger to which weean and do resort when the alternatie happens to suit our fancy. They are ignorant of ballot box stuffing, false counts, and doc tored registration lists. Their methods are not cOmplel, but they are candid.
 Coming dowi to the facts is there so very much difference beween inviting the rabble to Ssassinate a public man and taking sot at him yourself? In this country tits no uncommon spec tacle to see ewspapers and dema- gogues denountng not only an individ- ual, but an ent'e class, in such fash ion as to arOus in the breasts of the minimizing and the credulous an i'm pulse of brutal murder Wherein is that better thal getting out your own gun and givinglim a load of buckshot where it will donost harm? We have TO means of knwing that Romaguera was not coalparon or a beef trust official. Santos nay have been an oc- tupus of the yer deepest dye. And if it be as We ar disposed to suspect,
