 The train did not leave until a15 in the afternoon. so We had time for trip to the Luteschnenschtucht. It was well worth while. The gorge was formed by a glacier. The rock walls are at least 250 feet high At one point there is natural bridge in the stone across the ehasm. Along the side of the walls are many glacier mills smooth hollows, worn by the continuous turning of the smaller rocks moved by the glacier Suddenly as you turn bend in the gorge you come face to face with the huge wall of ice, the glacier The ice below is a light green. Occasionally you hear a eraclSle or see a fragment breaking off and falling into the water which flows from it's base Then you realize that the glacier Is moving, that it is coming forward That it's power is irresistible! It gives you almost an uncanny feeling to con template the thought that that mighty mass of ice. weighing millions of tons is slowly, but surely coming down the

 Highest Railroad in Europe
 We left Glindlewald In the afternoon and were soon on the highest railroad in Europe. It is cogwheel line six miles long and in trip of an hour and half conveys you through tunnels pierced in the bases of the great noun tains. The cost of the road has been f4So,oOo. There are four stations. The first Is at the side of the great Eiger glacier. The others are merely gal1er- ies cut in the rock from which mag nificent views are obtained.
 We arrived at the Jungfrau about o'clock and made a few short excur- sions in the snow. enjoying the view As the clouds on this afternoon hung very low, We witnessed the very unus- ual sight of the sun setting into the clouds. It was a glorious vision. Be- low us was a sea of yapor. white soft, beautiful. Above this sea there pro- truded all the higher peaks of the re- zion. But the surprising thing to us was the various hues the mountain tops assumed. As the light began to fall they turned a delicate -blue.- But when the sun was nd~ longer visible, only touching the high sumimts, they, blushed into a beautiful pink. It was a glorious sight.
 The evening was spent in the rough house at the terminus of the road. After supper we rolled up in blankets and lay down on the floor of the dining room and attempted to sleep. It was but little more than attempt. Two others besides our party were in the house. starting next morning on a climbing expedition. One of these was Professor Burlington, who won a name about three years ago by descending the crater of Mt. Vesuvius and taking a moving picture of an erup- tion in progress. He said that he always suffered from insomnia his first night in the mountains. The other man took a drug in order to sleep

How absurd does this proclamation
sound when the roar of the cannon
is now heard around the globe and
the shrieks of the dying almost
opens up before our minds the real
tiles of Dante's Inferno.
Can any one be bold enough to
claim that the coming of Jesus
Christ has brought peace to the
earth in the face of this bloody
war? Yes His coming has brought
Him as the Prince of Peace. The
reason of that inhuman strife that
lis sitting the commerce of the
world and breaking the hearts Of
thousands of hopes, is that these
nations have not crowned Jesus
Christ as the Prince of Peace The
peace treaties, though signed by ev-
cry nation under the sun, will new
er be worth the paper they are
written on so long as might is to
rule over right. The only guaran-
tee of world wide peace is that
Jesus Christ be crowned by the
world as its Prince of Peace and
this, my friends, is the mission the
church, TO work and TO pray for the
coming CT that glorious time when
the kingdoms Of this world become
the kingdoms OF our Lord and of
His Christ. when every knee shall
bow and every tongue confess Him
TO be mighty God. everlasting Faith

1t would appear then that the
coming of Christ was no accident
nor the spontaneous outburst of a
premature plan but it was, con-
trarywise. an event happening in
time. that in the mind of God oc-
Cured in eternity before time was

1t would appear that the coming
OF Christ happened just when it

OF three civilizations, Hebrew,
Greek and Roman, each contribut-

Mary brought forth her first born
and they called his name Jsus.
AS everything before His coming
pointed to the time when He
should come. so everything since his
coming points back to mis- having

point the morning when the angels
sang, glory TO God in the highest,
and on earth peace, good will to-
ward men"
In this message of the angels
there is either expressed or implied
three facts:
That the primary purpose OF
Christ's coming was the glory of
God The first item in the song of
the angels was, glory to God - In
our theology we are taught to be-
lieve that Christ came on a mission
OF redemption and indeed He did.
He said OF himself. Il came TO seek
and to save that which is lost and
again II came to give my life for
the sheep He came to be our
high priest himself as sacrifice to
satisfy Divine justice and reconcile
us to God and entering into heaven
itself where He makes continual in
tercession for us.
Our theology also teaches us
that he came on a mission of teach
ing; that He came to be to us a
prophet; that He came to reveal TO
US by His word and spirit the will
of God for our salvation.
Ii also teaches us that He came
on a mission of conquest. TO be our
king; that He came 10 conquer the
world not as men would conquer by
the power of might but 10 conquer
By love.
But behind all of this. behind the
redemptive mission OF Christ. be-
hind the teaching mission OF
Christ. behind the kingly mission OF
Christ. Is this fact IL was all that
God glory might be known.
The second fact in the message OF
the angel choir is that the blessed
effect of His coming is peace on
earth.
GLORY To God In the Highest.

But how absurd does such a proc
lamation sound To- the ears OF the

good will to men.
This good will is revealed in the
acceptance of our person through
Christ.
1t is revealed in the sanetification
of our natures and is the consola-
ton Of our hearts and the comfort
he brings to US in our lives and
that peace we find in our acceptance
by Him and at last by the glorifica-
ton of our humanity.
The coming of Jesus Christ was
for the glory of God. marking the
beginning OF an era of peace In
time which is eternity will have nc
end and was a revelation of Gods
good will toward men.

Recently a distinguished artist was
compelled by business to visit Germany,
and, of course, he was obliged TO have a
passport. On reaching the frontier his
passport was found to lack some essen
tial formality, and the German officials
refused TO allow the artist TO proceed on
his journey.
"Indeed. how do we know that you
are an artist, much more the man you
claim to be, who has worldwide rep
utatlon as draughtsman ?" inquired the
chief official severely.
For answerthe artist drew out his pencil,
seated himself at the table and sketched on
the back of the rejected passport a dis
mounted cannon with group OF dead
and dying soldiers around it. The Prus-
sian took up the sketch, looked at it, and
left the room In few minutes he re-
turned with another passport, which he
laid before the artist "ThiS paper" ne

The First Telegram.

Hidden away in the archives OF the
Tennessee Historical Society al Nashville
is the account OF the first actual message
ever sent over a telegraph line. That
dispatch differs materially fromthe solemn
message that passed oyerthe wire between
Washington and Baltimore in the year
1874. II illustrates well, however, the
lack ofseriousness with which Mr.. Morse's
invention was taken when he first offered
it 10 the world.
According 10 the account preserved at
Nashville, Hon. Robert L. Cauthers, OF
Lebanon, Tennessee, was a member OF
Congress in 1843, and n member OF the
committee 10 which was referred Mr.
Morse's application for an appropriation
to build telegraph-line from Washing
ton TO Baltimore. Most OF the members
OF the committee looked upon Morse as a
visionary, and his proposal as impractic-
able.
On the last day OF The session Morse
went TO the committee room and told
them that he had stretched wire TO the
top of the Capitol building, and had a
young man up there. Ifthey would write
a message he would send II up; and The
young man would bring them a copy OF
il. None OF them believed il could be
done. Judge Csruthers, however, pulled
the envelope of letter out OF his pocket
and wrote message. Mr.. Morse. who
had his instrument with him, sat down
and sent the message. In few minutes
the young man walked into the room with
an exact copy OF the message. The COM
mittee reported favorably, and recon-
mended the appropriation.
The bill passed just before the adjourn
ment. Some one went to Mr.. Morse's
clearinghouse TO inform him that the
appropriation was made. The daughter OF
the IandIady went TO Mr.. Morse's room,
walked him, and gave him the welcome
news. He said TO her. "My daughter.
you shall send the first message that goes
from Washington TO Baltimore. That
promise was fulfilled when she sent the
famous message "What hath God

Judge CarHthers was an ardent Wing,
and in lS43 the Wings were very angry
with President Tyler, whom they accused
Of betraying the party. The message that
Judge Caruthers sent from the committee
room TO the young man at the top Of the
Capitol was: "TyIer deserves TO be
hanged"
