Extra Rush Service. The extra-rush-hour service on the Tenleytown line, however, is apparently a compromise, since the report recom- mends sending cars to Wisconsin avenue and M street until experience can show to what extent it is advisable to oper- ate extra service on through routes. The report also takes into consid- eration the Cabin John line and rec- ons of a fifteen-min- line between Lincoln Park, Cabin John and 36th street and Prospect avenue, giving four cars to Cabin John from Lincoln Park per hour, and four cars to 36th street and Prospect avenue per hour, making a total of eight between Lincoln Park and the last named point. The utilities commission will meet on Thursday, when this report will be presented officially and action prob- ably taken upon it.

Gospel Is Taught in Type and Figure in Old Testament, and Evidence Given of Christ’s Messiahship. “THE JUDGMENT” WILL BE SUBJECT OF THIS EVENING’S DISCOURSE. A capacity crowd heard Evangelist 0. O. Bernstein, president of the New Jersey Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, in his second lecture at the Capital Memorial Church, 5th and F streets northwest, last night on the subject, “Type and Antitype—OId Testament Symbolism Explained.” In appealing to his hearers that the Bible be restored to its rightful place as the Word of God, divinely inspired and supremely authoritative, the lecturer declared that “the Old Testament was virtually the foundation of the New; in it a full gospel is taught in type and figure, and upon it rests the evidence of the claim of Christ's Messiahshin.” P . Mr. Bernstein declared “that 0 many people the Mosaic Tabernacle seems sil Jewish antiquity Testament ceremonialism was but the result of Jewish super- stitution, with no voice or meaning for us at this day, but thousands of (iod's children are finding it is most wonder< ful teaching. “Of all the types in the Old Testament the Mosaic Taber- nacle is the chief. It occupies more space in the Bible than any other. Then again some types have only one story to relate or one phase of the gos- pel to present, but the taber- nacle consists of many types in one symmetrical whole, and by it the full gospel is preached in object lesson. “The Scriptural account of the construction of the taber- nacle is found in Exodus, chap- ters 25 to 40—the materials of which it was constructed, the colors used and the arrange- ment of the furniture. Every= thing had its significance. The Lord repeatedly charged Moses to be sure to make everything ‘after the pattern which was showed thee in the mount. THE COURT. “The court which surrounded the tabernacle was 100 cubits long (20 inches to ¢ubit), 50 cubits wide and 5 cubits high. There were 20 posts or pillars on the south side, 20 on the north, 10 on the west and 10 on the eaxt. These brass pillars were dropped into mockets of brass (Exodas, 27:15), and then curtains of fine twined linen were hung on them. The gaie was 20 cubits wide, and the hangings of the gate were blue, purple, scariet and fine, twined linen. THE TABERNACLE (EXODUS, 26:15-30). “It was necessary that thix building be one which could be easily set up and easily taken down, ax in the long wildcrness journey of the Ixraclites it wax taken down and wet up a great many tmes. It was made of boards set up endwise, covered with pure gold. These boards were dropped into silver sockets and were further supported by bars slipped throuzh rings on the sides and end. There were 20 boards on the south, 20 on the morth and & on the west. The tabernacle was 30 cubite tong, 10 cublts wide and 10 cubitx high. For the front or cast end of the tabernacle there was a hans- ing of blue and purple and scarlet and fine twined linen. Exodus, 26:36. “The tabernacle was divided into two parts, or rooms. The large room was called the Holy Place, and the small room, which wax an exact cube, 10 chbits each way, was called the Holy of Holies. The curtain separating the Holy from the Most Holy Place was called the vell. This veil was made of blue and purple and scarlet and fine, twined linen, with the figures of cherubim. Exodus, 26:31-33. “The tabernacle had four sets of co The first, or inner- most covering, was made of the same material as the veil. The sec- ond was of goat's hair, pure white. The third was of rams’ skins dyed red, and the last or outer was of badger skins. “FURNITURE.” “Connected with the Mosale Tabernacle were six pieces of furni- tare. In the Most Holy Place was the ark of the covenant. Exodus, 25:10-22. A trunk-like box overlald with pure gold within and with- out and on each end of the lid called the ‘mercy seat’ was placed the figure of n covering cherub. “It was from between the cherubim on the ‘mercy seat’ that there shone the Shekinah light—the manifest presence of Jehovah. From this miniature throne God communed with the priests. In the ark and under the ‘mercy seat’ Moses placed by divine command the two tables of law, the ten commandments written with the fingers of God. In the next apartment of the sanctuary mearer the entrance, and caulled the Holy Place, were three articles of furnitare. “(a) Altar of ineense on which the priests burned incense morn- ing and evening, ome of prayers ascending before the throne of God. “(b) The golden candle stick (Exodus, 25:31-40) of seven lights was placed on the south side. It was 10 provide light. There were no windows in the tabernacle. “(c) The table of shewbread was located on the north side. On it were plnced twelve loaves of bread—one loaf for each of Isrmel's tribes and renewed each week. The bread was eaten by the priests. “In the open court were two articles of furmiture. Near the door of the tabermacle stood the laver (Exodus 30:17-21) holding water for priests to wash before entering the tahernacle. And near the gate of the eourt was the altar of burnt offering (Exodus, Z7:1-8), before which the sinning Israelite brought hix offering. “After the forty years of wanderings in the Arabian wilderness, and in their history following, the Scriptures record the building of a permanent temple in Jerusalem, which structure in its innermoxt apartments was built on the exaet plan of the Mosaic Tabermacle. Not one Christian in a hundred is familiar with the foregoing details of the sanctuary question or the priceless, spiritual and practical lessons that are taught by the building itself and the various services conducted therein. “The great apostle Paul, writing in the New Testament to the Hebrew converts in Hebrews, ninth chapter, says that the Mosaic Tabernacle was ‘a figure for the time then present’; that it supplied ‘patterns of things in the heavens.’ ‘Figures of the true. “Well, what is there in the heavens of which this earthly building and its services were but a shadow! Paul's answer is—the ‘sanctuary —the true tabernacle which the Lord pitehed, and not man’ is_in ven. In A.D. 95 the Apostle John, a prisoner on Patmos, was taken in heavenly vision, where he beheld the real tabernacie, of which Moses’ building was a pattern. He says (Rev., 11:19) the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in hix temple the ‘ark of his testament.’ Not only did he behold the real sanctuary of God, but the ark which holds the Eternal Law, of which the ten commandments were but a transeript. “In revelation 4.5, John further states he saw seven lamps of fire burning before God’'s throne, and again in revelation S.3. declared he saw an angel, who ‘stood at the altar, having a golden censor, and there was given him much incense that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the altar which was before the throme. Thus any one can see the earthly tabernacle and its furniture were miniature reproductions of the real heavenly temple and fts furniture. “So likewise the mosaic tabernacle had ordinances of divine werv- ice, which foreshadowed the services of Jesus Christ, (he Messiah. Proof, Hcbrew S.1—We have such an high priest who ix on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens: a minister of the sunctuary and of the true taberpacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man. For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacri- fices, therefore, it is of necessity that this man have somsewhat aiso to ofter.’ “That the believer may become intelligent with the work of Jesus Chrixt ns minister in the hemvenly sanctmary, the Chrsitian chureh should study the tpyical work In the mosale tahernacle. The ministra- tions in the first apartment of the earthiy sanctuary oeccupied the entire year with the exception of one day and were on this wise: When 2 mwan repented of his sin he brought a xin offering to the priest at the door of the sanctuary. Then he confesxed his sin to the priest and put his hand upon the head of hix offering (o indicate the transfer of the guilt from himself to the offering. Then the victim was slain becaaxe of that guilt thus transferred to it, and the blood representing the life of the vietim was taken by the priest and carried into the snctuary and sprinkied there before God. This act was the offering Of the life of an Innocent victim in the place of the life of him who had broken the law of God, and it was the transfer of that man’s gullt from himself to the sanctuary of God. (See Leviticus 4 and parallel Scriptures referred to in the margin). “We are told that the wages of sin (the transgression of the law) is death. Rom. 6:23. Death mot only to the body but death to the soul. We are taught also that a substitute, Christ Jesus, the Spotl Lamb of God, hax taken our sins and suffered the penalty of death in our place, and if we accept the payment of the debt we are free. ‘He was wounded for our tra ms. He was bruised for our inigmi- ties. The chastisement of our peace was upon Him and by His stripes are we healed.’ “It was on the crosw that Christ paid this debt and as our substi- tute died for us. Into the Mowt Holy Place of the carthly sanctuary the high priest went only onee every year. Hebrew 9:7. It was on the tenth day of the seventh month. Leviticus 10:29. On that day, called the Day of Atonement, the high priest ‘was to take two goats and preasent them before the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation’ and ‘Aarom shall cast lots npon the two goats—one lot for the Lord and the other for the scape goat.’ The Lord's goat, repre- senting Christ, was to be killed and the blood carried into the Holy of Holtes and sprinkled upon the mercy seat. Thus the law in the ark, which was demanding the life of the transgressor, was satisfied. After accomplishing the service inside the sanctuary, the priest was to pass out and confess the sins upon the head of the scape goat and he was sent forth into the wilderness bearing the sins. “So in the gospel arrangement our sins by repemtance and faith are transferred from us to Jesus, and thus to the heavenly sanctuary where our Saviour ministers; also that the time will come when our sins, atomed for by the blood of Christ, will be rolled back on the head of Satan himself, the instigator of xin, the anti-typical Scape Goat, and by him borne into eternal oblivion.. “In the tabernacle we are taught by objects just what we are taught in the New Testament by words. The Holy Scriptures, from Genesis to levelation, teach the same plan of redemption for all sin- ners: Gos, “The mermaze of slvation through Jesus Christ i o be carried to every nation, kindred, tongue and people.” The subject of Evangelist Bernatein's lecture fonight will be: “The Judgment.” He will show that every person is judgment-bound, whether professed Christinn or sinmer, and that Jehovah will bring into review man’s tull work, whether it be good or evil, and upon that Judgment rendered the saints will be rewarded and sinners assigned to the doom of eternal death.
