''When thou makest a feast or a supper, call not thy friends nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen nor thy rich neigh bors, lest they also bid thee again and a recompense be made thee. But when thou makest a feast call the poor, the malmed the lame, the blind" Now, who are the maimed and the lame and the blind? Are they simply the poor who go around on crutches or feel their way with a staff? I think not. Christ would not here say: 'The poor and the maimed and the halt and the blind' if that was the case. l think the maimed and the halt and the blind mean the moral crlpples think these words to a great extent mean the spiritual outcasts. l think they mean those who are like the seven deviled Mary and Zacchaeus. whom honest people shun as the healthy physical man would run from lazaretto or a loathsome plague. Yes we are to give a cordial well come even to the vllest of sinners, such a welcome as Abraham gave the three strangers at his home.
 These words mean that we should go forth in the name of Christ and try to save those who have sunk so low in the quagmires of sin that, befoued and reek- tng with immoral filth, like wild beasts of prey, they seem to be staggering alone through a dark wilderness of despair. They seem to be alone, all alone in their crimes. When the great Roman orator Cicero was hurllng his condemnation against the sins of Catiine. so overpower- ing was the scene that no senator would sit by the conspirator and destroyer of young mems virtues. One by one they left the bench upon which the crnglng Cataline crouched. There he trembled, with no friend by his side, while the Ed mund Burke of Caesars reign was de- nouncing him as Warren Hastings cen turies later was denounced in Westmn- ster. Thus as we see the wrongdoer cringing under the lash as he sat alone we can see the modern Catilines shuined and forsaken on account of their sins. We can see the poor harlots, the brazen faced libertines and the moral lepers reeking with sin Christ bids us to go to them, even to the maimed and the halt and the blind and give them gospel salutation, as-A braham accosted the three angels.
 All Prime Ministers.
 And my friends a sinner can never sink so low but in that sinful degradation the true Christian may see the infinite possibilities of glory that will rebound to Christ if his redemption could only enter that sinful soul.
 Friend, how is it with thy Christian ife9 Art thou opening wide thy doors? Art thu looking for the coming angelic messen- gers? Art thy trying to spy out these. visitors from God when they are in the far distance? Art thou willing to run to them and greet them? Canst thou not see them? There they are in that dark alley There they come down the street Do you not see them? Why they are by your side now. Will you greet them and go after them in the name of Christ?

For seven years now there has been
a growing sentiment for the raising Of
the Niagara the famous old flagship
Of Commodore Perry when he fought
with the British fleet In Misery bay,
Lake Erie. This sentiment assumed
practical form during the last session
OF congress and that body appropriat.
ed $4,000 for the raising OF the old
ship, under the direction OF the secre.
tary Of the navy. The ship will be
placed In a permanent building of
brick and stone on the grounds OF the
soldiers and sailors home at Erie,
Pa. as n memorial OF the first victory
Of an American feet over foreign
foe.
The fact that the Niagara lies ut
the bottom Of Misery bay was first
called to the attention Of the nublic
by Former Representative S. A. Dav.
EXPORT, OF Erie, as a result Of a con.
versation in Washington in the spring
OF 1899. At that time the question OF
the rehabilitation OF other historic
ships was being widely discussed, and
II was suggested that among other
famous ships the old Constitution
should be restored.
Then some one announced that the
Niagara was still intact in the little
bay near Erie. The knowledge that
Perry's flagship was still in existence
came as a surprise to many represen,
tatives, who manifested the greatest
interest In the project soon after pro.
posed by Mr.. Davenport. The events
