The grave echoes back no anawer. " Weo turn to the scientist and say, “What mensage can you brit His answer is, *‘1 have gone down into the grave as far as my light can cast a shadow, and heard no sound, Tho graveis a bottomless abyss. There i8 no hope, and man dies as the boeasts of tho field.” The infidel stands by. Wo sy, “What can you tell us of man's destiny standing upon the verge of the gravei’ His lips are dumb with the seal of eter- nal silonce. He turns and silently points to the gloomy inscription, *‘Death is an eternal sleop.” All these leave the world in doubt and despalr. The grave is gloomy. No light nor life for a weary, dying world. The man of areth stands by and as a last hopo we turn to him, and say, “What message can you bring to us des- pairing creatures from the depths of the tomb?” and, thank God ! the light does not dio from his eyes. Despair does not sit marked upon his face, He answers, ‘I am the resurrectionfand the life, Ho that believeth on me shall never die,” The darkness and gloom is thrown to the breezes and the world has hope and gladness was called to spend the remainder of his life in golng about and declaring at the- rigk of great bodily peril the great truths Itis very evident from those state- ments that somo change must have oc- curred either in Saul of Tarsus or in Christ, the giver of this gospel or in the gospel itself. But no change could have taken place in Christ, fog he was divine. and being God Himself, was in accor- dance with the words of Jesus Christ, ‘'thesame yesterday, to-day and forever.” There could have been no change in the gospel, which is the gospel of Christ, as it is said by Himself of His words, ‘‘Heaven and earth shall pass away but my words shall not pass away.” The change only occurred in Saul. There are;many like Saul of Tarsus who perhaps when they hear Christian people and ministers speak of tho glory of God as revealed through the gospel are greatly surprised. They can find no beauty nor glory in it. “Have I been mistaken all this time concerning this dull, dry book that men call the Gospel ¢ Are there in it gems of surprising bril- liancy, that my eye hasnever looked upon or beheld ?” They go home and take the dust cov- ered bible down from the shelf, and turn over page after page and see no glory beam from tho sacred pspe, and they close up the book and say, *‘Surely, it must be a grand mistake:” If there are any among you here this morning who think that the Gospel is a dry, dull bock, void of glory, it is becauss you look npon it as Saul of ' Tarsus did, with scales upon your eyes and unbelief in your hearts, Let the divino hand of power touch your eyes, and his mighty light sweep from your soul the darkness of unbelief, and the glorlous gospel will be revealed to you in its beauty, brilliancy and power, and you will know and behold 1t as Saul did. This fact is beautifully illustrated in the following story: In the distant land of India a prince and princess, who were ranked among the aristocracy of that country, were to be wedded, and when the day came for tho ceremony one of Iudia's grandest halls was thronged with falr women and brave men; and the prince and princess came to the assemblage and were wedded. And when the coremony was completed the bridegroom reached out his kand to bestow upon the bride his wedding gift, according to a custom pre- valent awong the people of that nation at that time, As sho reached out her fair arm and delicato hand he placed therein what scemed to be a crude, rough iron ball, When the bride looked upon it her eyes flashed und her cheeks burned with scorn and disdain, and in a ragp, she flur it upon the marble floor of the palace, dis- daining it as a gift unworthy of her rank and position and unworthy tho bestowa of the man who had become her husl band, But when the ball struck upon the marble floor, 1t struck upon a secret spring which flew cpen and disclosed a silver ladle. They stooped and picked it up, touching another spring which dis- closed a priceless wedding ring contain- ing a brilliant gem of goiden setting from iolconda’s miue, pricelees in brilliancy and beauty, and the fair brice, with a happy smile, placed it upon her finger, a8 a gift worthy of the highest rank and of her husband who had bestowed it. Now, if the bibke seems to you like a dull, dry, uninteresting book, you must with the fingers of faith, learn to touch the hidden springs, and then realize its light, set with goms of spiritual besuty; brighter far than gems from the mine, or pearls from the depths of the sea. In Paul’s going forth and proclaiming it wherever he went, he fully realized in it, the wisest truth, the wisest system of truth the world had ever known, You have all heard of the Greek who was endeavoring to solve a diflicult mathematical problem, the solution of which would add to the world's knowl- edge and furnish the minds of men with another great truth. After many dags and weeks of severe study ho was unable to accomplish it, and one day while thinking over the problem tha tilled his The gospel 1s also glorious bocause of ts grand triumphs. In the beginning it was engaged in constant con- flict, but in spite of opposition, when the day of Pentecost came three thousand men were converted in that one day. It has been from the be- ginning and will be to the end of time, wonderful and divine. Lot us come down to its persecutions of a modern date. About a century ago, there arose up in the sunny land of France, a band of people, and at their head Voltaire, who said, *'I have heard till J am sick and tired, that it took twelve men to establish the gospel and I am going to show the world that it takos only one man to overthrow it.” What has been the result! Has the goapel disappeared?” To-day not one line of Voltaire's in- fidel writings are read by one man in ten thousand, while all over this world the olorious gospel of the blessed God is found upon the shelves of almost every household. Who has triumphed! Vol taire's works unknown and unread, and the bible found everywhere. The eame gospel that triumphed in past ages is trlumphing still. Go where you will in all this broad, broad world of ours and you will see the banner of the cross. Old as the nintecnth century the gospel of Christ still has in it the vigor of yeuth, bacdmu it is imbued with the strength of God. FROM FREMONT COUNTY.

THE COMING ELECTION, 8 for Extra Marshals, 0 and Sherifl The Prosj o) There has been much talk about the appointing of special officérs to see that order is preserved hero on election day, and that there is no illegal voting. The republicans have been thinking of having deputy U. S. marshals appointed, but they have concluded that it would be bot- tor to haveSneriff Guittar appoint deputy sheriffs, The democratic mayor says that he thinks all this is needless, and says he will bo personally responsible for pre- serving order at the polls. He proposes to see to it that every saloon is closely shut on that day, and the police in- structed to arrest every one found selling or drinking. He says ho will place at each polling place two of the regular police force, and have a rope strung so as to prevent any crowding and allowing each voter to go up by himself. If extra policemen are needed he will select them without regard to party., He says that mind from day to day he suddenly com- prehended the truth, the solution was re- vapled to him, and he leaped out of the house and ran down the street in the wildest ecstacy, crying at the top of his voice, “Eureka! Eureka!” meaning *I have found it!” The revelation of that truth filled his mind with the glory of it, to such an extent that he forgot his sur- roundings in his excitement over his find- ing of this new and grand truth in the progress of civilization and in the way of material things, If the trutht of science are so glorious how much moro glorious are the truths of the gospel of the Son of God, that teaches us not only of the material things of this earth; not only of the sun and stars that burn and glow, but of God, whose bands placed those stars, Wherp is found the most glorious truth? "Here is philosophy, science, poe- try, Here is infidelity that claims a greater truth than science and religion combined can reveal. Let me bring you all to stand with me for a brief moment at the verge of the grave; that testing place of all knowledge and wisdom. Here is the philosopher, the poet, the scientist, the infidel, and here is the cover of this glorious gospel Here we stand and gaz into the grave if the sheriff is to take charge that the responsibility will then be divided be tween two heads, and ho will not be re- sponsible for the result. —_— IoWa ITEMS, There are six English Lutheran churches in Iowa, The linseed il works at Sioux Ciry have begun operations, Pawnbrokers' license in Des Moines has been ralsed to $200, Burlington papers are already plead- ing for stoves in street cars.
