must be a man Of war, but he must also
be one familiar with the law. and obedi-
ent to it These conditions were pre-
eminently fulfilled in the case of Joshua
In the hour when one servant of God
succeeds another, the abiding conditions
Of his success are, first, that he shall be
loyal to all that has already been ac-
complished: and secondly, that he shall
be prepared to follow Jehovah upon a
new pathway of which the past had
known nothing. 1t was in this spirit that
presently. Joshua said to the people, ''Ye

The Golden Text.
The words selected from the lesson for
our golden text constitute the central
note of the new movement. In the lesson
itself we find the charge thrice repeated
to Joshua. and in such connection as -
reveal the threefold necessity for
strength and courage. First, he was
to be strong and OF good courage in
view of the work which he had to do.
Secondly, he was to be strong and very
courageous in the observance of the law.
Finally, he was to be strong and coura-
geous in view Of the perils to be avoided,
tfIese of fear and dismay.
In this connection it is most interesting
and important to observe that in what
remains of the chapter we have an ac-
count OF how the people yielded them
selves TO His command and their last
charge to>him was. BE strong and of
good courage" Thus II is seen that in
the case of those who are called TO leader
ship, both God and man demand that
there shall be courage and strength ,

M. W. BLDMENBERG Dies
AFTER LONG ILLNESS
Official Reporter Of the Senate for
Twenty Years Passes Away
in Chicago.
WAS EXPERT STENoGRAPHER

News reached Washington yesterday
of the death, at the Congress Hotel,
Chicago, Of Milton w. Blumenberg, for
twenty years an official reporter in
the Senate, and one OF the most ex-
pert shorthand writers in the country.
He had been in i'll health for more than
q year, and several months ago re-
signed his position in the Senate. Re-
Gently he had gone to Chicago, where
he engaged in the brokerage business
Probably no other man in this coun-
try had a wider acquaintance among
public men than Mr.. Blumenberg.
When a lad he learned stenography
and became clerk to Senator Shelby
M. 'Cullom, of Illinois. At the instance
of Senator Cullom he was appointed
an official reporter of the Senate. Ex-
tracts from his reports of Senate de-
bates have been included in textbooks
for students of stenography as models
OF shorthand work. During the re-
cesses of Congress his services always
were in demand. Among the notable
hearings he reported in the Senate
were those involving the elections Of
William A. Clark of Montana. Reed
Smoot of Utah, and William Lorimer
Of Illinois. He also accompanied a
Congressional committee to Hawaii
and another committee that investigat-
ed immigration systems of European
countries. He was the official reporter
of the last four Republican National
Conventions and the last three Demo-
cratic National Conventions.
Mr.. Blumenberg was the eldest son
of the late Rudolph Blumenberg. He
is survived by Mrs. Blumenberg, who
was Miss Josephine Thill, of New York,
and two brothers. NJ. r. Blumenberg,
of Washington and Moxie Blumenberg.
of Portland, Me. He was forty-one
years old. He was a member Of the
National Press Club.

ELDER ARMITAGE LECTURES.
Missionary Tells of Work Among
Natives of Africa.

Frank Armitage, who is returning to
his missions in Southeast Africa, after
furlough in this country. made an inter
esting talk to the students of the Wash
ington Foreign Mission Seminary last
night. He emphasized that the secret of
reaching the primitive black man is not
in argument, but in kindness and in liv-
ing Christianity.
Some years ago. during a famine. FL
der Armitage took in eight little black
children to care for. Their parents died,
leaving them in his hands He has
educated and reared them. and this has
done much toward gaining the confidence
of the natives. These orphans also have
been a material help to him in establish
ing new missions.
Mr.. Armitage sails in a few days foT
Cape Town, taking with him Mr.. and
Mrs. r. p. Robinson and Mr.. and Mrs.
James Robinson, who have been Prepar-
ing in the seminary here, as recruits for
the mission field.

nection that Moses was charged to write
an account of the victory, and to re-
hearse Ii in the ears of Joshua (Exod.
xvii, S-l6). He was now about to lead
the people to the conquest Of the land.
and he was called to constant meditation
upon the book Of the law, in which that
writing was already incorporated; and
was distinctly told that as he was obedi-
ent to the things written therein. his way
would be prosperous, and he would have
good success.
The Teaching. ~,
Perhaps the most impressive fact about
our lesson is its revelation of the contin-
uity Of the Divine. work. How much had
depended upon Moses, and how marvel
lous the history of the last fOrtv years
had been under his leadership. our les
sons to this point have shown. He had
been the instrument of Divine deliverance
and discipline, through all the processes
the very voice of God to the people. the
one to whom them came with their COM
plants and their confessions; and now he
had been removed Il Is only when we
give careful thought to the facts Of tie
case, that we can appreciate how tre-
mendous the blank created by his going
must have been. Yet there was no halt
whatever in the Divine progress. The
man had been in training during all those
forty years, in fellowship with Moses.
for the new work necessary, in order to
the carrying on OF the purpose of God.
The reading of the opening words of the
book OF Joshua almost inevitably recall
to mind the words Of John Wesley, now
inscribed upon his memorial tablet Gin
Westminster Abbey, God buries His
>~orkmen. but carries on His work" y
How constantly men need to be remind
ed of this fact! We are ever in danger
of imagining that more depends upon the
Instruments Of God. than we are war
ranted in doing When the leader ap-
pointed OF God, and loyal to Him. ac-
complishes His will with patent success,
we are always in danger of imagining
that all the work must b. halted II he
be removed. This is never 50. Each in
dividual in the long succession has an
appointed task. and in proportion as he
is loyal to God that task Is completed.
and prepares the way for a task for
which he would be entirely untitled. but
for the doing of which God has as surely
selected his successor as He appointed
him.
And yet the story reveals the vision
and fitifess of these Divine appointments.
AS the people were now to come into the
land, they must do so by conquest. but
they must also do so by obedience 70 the
law which had been given them through
Moses. The man, therefore. to succeed
