MOUNT TABOR'S PARABOLIC VISION.
"ThlMt my beloved Son. n tchom I am well pleased; hear ye Mm."
SIX days after our Lord's words concluding our Inst study, he took Peter.
James and John, three of his favorites among the disciples, into a high
mountain. There he was transfigured before thetn; that Is to sny, his
appearance changed, his face shone like the sun, his garments were
•white like the light. Then the vision grew and Moses and Elijah appeared to
be holding conversation with the transfigured Jesus. The Impulsive St. Peter,
nnxlous to serve, inquired whether or not It was the Master's will that they
build three tabernacles: one for him, one for Moses and one for Elijah, on the
top of the mountain. One of the evangelists says, "lie knew not what be
said." Another account shows that the three disciples were for a time over
whelmed by something like drowsiness but later became fully awake.
It was on this occasion that they beard a voice from the heavens, saying,
"This is my beloved Son In whom I am well pleased; hear ye him." It re
quired our Lord's kind words and touch to relievo the Apostles of their fright
and looking up they saw uo one but Jesus. Ills transfiguration had vanished,
and it was the Master. Just as before. If. momentarily, they thought that
Jesus had entered Into glory, they now perceived that they were mistaken.
Another account tells us that as tbey were toralng down the mountain side
Jesus charged them that they should not tell the vision to any on© until after
his resurrect loq from the dead. lie thus explained to them that the whole
matter was a t>lsion. an apparition. This was a fulfillment of what he had
told them In his lust words of our lesson of a week ago. "There be some stand
ing here which shall not taste of death till*they see the Son of man coming
in his Kingdom." These three disciples bad been standing In his presence at
the time those words were uttered, and now they had seen the Son of man In
his Kingdom glory— in vision. The reality of that vlßion has not yet come to
pass, although It Is surety nigh, even at the door.
St. Peter himself d'dTOres that they accepted the vision as n corroboration
of our Lord's assurance of his coming Kingdom. In his Epistle he says, "Wo
havo not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you
the power and coming of our Lord Jesus, but were eye witnesses of his majesty
[his kingdom J, when we were with him In the holy mount." (II Peter 1:10, 18).
Yet the Apcstle proceeds to tell us that this vision, helpful as It was at the
time, became secondary as he tyime to a better understanding of the prophecy
which more particularly describes our Lord's second coming and Kingdom,
lie says, "We have a more sure word of prophecy la more sure evidence than
the vision] to which we do well to take heed as unto a lamp that shines in a
dark place until the day dnwn"-until the Millennial morning dawn.—ll
Peter 1:19. j
Before leaving the Btory of tho transfiguration, which symbolized our
| Lord's Kingdom glory, we note his gracious words to tho affrighted disci
ples, "Arise, and be not afraid." On several occasions he thus addressed thetn.
It would appear that by nature many of us have a consciousness of our own
Imperfections and a realization of our unworthlnesa of Divine favor; atul fears
are likely to grasp us and torture us. This Is because wo do not know our
heavenly Father. The more we learn of him the more does the love of God
cast out fear from our hearts, and \issure us that he who created us Is sym
pathetic towards nil who are striving for righteousness. He Is a yrcal God,
not a little one. True, he will not give his greatest blessings to any except
those who come Into harmony with him, but, on tho other hand, he Is not n
demon that he should be feared as such. lie takes no pleasure in the suffer
ing of his creatures and will not permit that any should suffer eternally,
therefore his provision that all shall have, through Christ, nn opi>ortunlty for
regaining perfection and eternal life, and that whosoever will not avail him
self of this great privilege must die tho second death—must be annihilated.
While Jesus and tho three favored Apostles were In the mount of trans
figuration, supposed to have been Mount Tabor, at the foot of the mountain
there was a man whose son was a lunatic, whom he had brought that the
Lord might expel the demon. The Apostles had already been out, as tho
Lord's representatives, in various parts of the country of Palestine, curing
the sick and expelling demons In his name; so they assayed to cast out this
demon but could not. Tho Revised Version speaks of tho sufferer as an
epileptic. Indeed, all higher criticism disputes that there Is such a filing as
obsession by evil spirits. It Is a common saying today among the Higher
Critics that what our Lord and the Apostles mistook for demou possession
was merely Insanity, epilepsy, etc. Of course the word disease is broad enough
to cover any kind of aliment, whether It be a direct affection from the Ad
versary, or an Imjlrect one through heredity. In either case there Is loss of
ease, dls-ease, discomfort. We, however, have more confidence in the wisdom
of tho Lord and his chosen Apostles and mouth-pieces than we have In ail tho
Doctors of theology and Doctors of medicine In the whole earth. We there
fore accept this narnftlve Just as it reads, that Jesus rebuked the "devil" and
cast him out of the boy, who was cured from that very hour.
The disciples who had been unsuccessful In casting out tills demon, called
the Master away from the hearing of the multitude and asked him why they
had failed when they attempted to cast out the demon, lie replied, "Because
of your little faith." Another account says that he stated. "This kind Cometh
not out except by fasting and prayer." In other words., the lesson to the
Apostles was that their greatest power would result from their living very
near to God. living lives of self-denial and prayer. Of course, fasting to bo
seen of men is not here inculcated, nor do we suggest that the works of pen
ance on the part of disciples would make them more efficient in the under
standing of the Lord's mystery: rather the thought is, the nearer one lives
to God the more of the Divine power may be exercised by and through him.
It is perhaps dltllcult for us to understand our I.ord's reference to their
having little faith, for they surely exercised considerable faith In making an
attempt to cast out the demon. Faith, to be Successful, must be backed by
spiritual power: and our Lord assures us that even with a small amount of
faith we would be able to remove a mountain and nothing would be Impossi
ble. We are not to suppose that our Lord meant that his followers'should try
to remove mountains as a diversion, nor as a proof of their faith, for by so
doing they would be seriously Interfering with the Interests of others who
would be more cenvenlenced by having the mountain remain. This they
would havo no right to do. We assume therefore that the thought must be
that If In the fulfillment of the Divine command It should be necessary to
have a mountain removed, and If the commission had been given to one of the
Lord's followers to remove the mountain, and If he could exercise the l'nltb to
obey the command, the result would correspond to the fnltb exercised. All
that the majority of us could do would be to exercise as much faith as possi
ble and ask the Lord for more, and also seek to cultivate a greater degree of
faith.

OFFICERS ARE REBUKED;
Navy Department Censures Superior
Officers in the Marine Corps—Jeal
ousies and Personal Strife.
Washington, Special.—The person
•l strife among the officers of the
United States marine corps Friday
reached a climax when the Navy De
partment, as a result of a court of
inquiry, sent letters of censure to
nearly all the officers concerned. No
further judicial proceedings are con
templated.
The censured officers are Major
Goneral George F. Elliott, command
ant of the corps; Col. Charles H.
Launchhcimer, adjutant and inspec
tor; Col. Frank L. Denay, the quar
termaster at Washington; Colonel
Charles A. Doyon, commanding the
marine barracks at the naval academy
at Annapolis; Lieutenant Colonel
Thomns C. Prince, assistant quarter
master at Washington; Lieutenant
Colonel Henry C. Haines, assistant
adjutant y.rd inspector at Washing
ton, and Majors Louis J. Magill and
David I). Porter, assistant adjutants
mnd inspectors at 3'hilac'elpliia and
Washington, respectiveiy.
The court held that General Elliott
Lad been profar.e, irritable and ir
ascible nt times, indulging moderately
in intoxicating liquors, but never in
toxicated on duty and sometimes
failed to treat subordinates with cour
t hut was usually polite, generous,
truthful, and a "plain blunt soldier,
open and frank."
At the bottom of the dissension in
tic-corps is said to have been tho
question of the mieressorship to Gen
eral fclliott when he retires in Octo
ber, tho fight being between officer!
ol' the line and of the staff.
Stamps by tho Billion
Washington, Special.—Ten billion
|x>slnge stamps, worth almost $-00,-
000,000, will be used by the people
of the United States in tho fiscal year
which began July 1, 1010, and will
be ended Juna 30, 1911. These be
wildering figures are set down in the
requisition which the Postofllee De
partment hiu forwarded to the Sec
retary of tho Treasury, by wkose or
der the stamps will be engraved and
delivered by the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing? The total of stamps
asked for is 9,864,220,000, but that
Dumber will not suffice, it is known,
the requisition being made for "the
sake of economy," smaller t,han the
probable needs. Last year's first
supply of $170,740,800 worth failed
and more bad to be ordered. The
face value of the iirst requisition this
year is $7,03(3,200 greater than last
year's.
