WAYS CONTRASTED. DR. CHAPMAN'S SUNDAY SERMON. The Difference Between Our Ways,; the Ways of the Wbtfld and the Ways of Christ. : ' New York, City. Tho distinguished evangelist, the" Key. Dr. J. Wilbur Chap-, tnan, has prepared the following sermon for the nress. It is entitled "Three Ways of Treating a .Sinner," and-w.as preached from the text: ".Neither do 1 condemn . thee; go, and sin no more." John 8: 11.' There is something exceedingly pathetic in the beginning of this chapter where we read Jesus went unto the Mount of Olives. I know the critics say that this story does not belong to the New Testaftient, but' did you ever see a better representation , of Christ, first, in His going out to the Mount of Olives as He was accustomed to, secondly, in His rising early in the morn ing that He might - come again in touch with' the great throbbing mass of people so tnueh in need of His service. Thirdly, in His sitting down and teaching, showing Unit He spoke with authority. ..Fourth, in the scorn with which He. treated the Phar isees as they condemned this poor, unfor tunate' -woman, when He said, "He that is without sin among you let him lirst cakt a stone at her," and linally in His tender treatment ' of the sinner herself when He fcaUl, "Neither do 1 condemn thee; go, and ein no more." This is all very like Him, and somehow I cannot get it out of my ' miiul that it belong? just where we have ever found it, and that anything which lias so genuine a ring as this must have been given to us by inspiration of Cod. But the pathos ot the iirst verse comes to us when we connect it with the last verso of tho Ttli chapter of John, "And every man. went unto his own house." .Jesus went unto the Mount of Olives. They all had houses. His commonest accuser had a home. The peop!e that helped Him all had lodgings somewhere, biH the Son of Man had not where to lay His head. He Mas rich, but for our sakes He became poor, a homeless wanderer, although the cattle on a thousand hills were His and the very world in which He lived had been only, as it were, His footstool. It is really touch ing to see Him going to the Mount of Olives. It may be that He vent to loda;e with a friend, possibly to sleep out in the open air. with only the blue sky above .Him; perhaps He went to pray,' for again , and aaain do we find Him in communion Ivith His Father on this mountain side, and Jle raav have gone just to wait upon Cod that He might have some new message from heaven or that some aiew direction might be given to tils life of self-sacrilice. 3 It1 was always going in the direction of this mountain, and it is for this reason that Christian travelers always are ever delighted to do the same thing, but at this particular time He was Hp early in the morning. What a worker He was. The most tireless '"servant the world has ever teen wa.s our Master, beginning in His rhildhood when- He said, "Wist ye not that I. must be about My Father's business," poing out in His ministry when He de clares, "I must work the works of Him that sent Me while it is day, for the night eometh when no man can work," saying as He said on 'the well curb, "My meat is to do the will of Him that sent Me." and then stepping into a boat and pushing off from the shore when the crowd is too great - to make His ministry helpful, thus using the boat for His pulpit. By day and by night He toiled, in heat or in cold He la bored, .with the multitudes following Him shouting hosanna, and the mob close , tracking after Him, let Him be crucified. He did nothing but Work. What a joy it was to Him to say as He came up to the cross, "I have finished the work Thou gave-st Mc to do." How few men can say it. Mo.st men feel as if they were but at the beginning of their life's "journey -when they stop it, and say with regret, if I could but live my life over again I would do something worthy of note; but Jesus finished His ,work. I like to picture Him rising in the Mount of Olives. The scene must have been most beautiful. There is the city of the king lying at His very feet, the city He loved with passionate devo tion. That valley yonder is the Kidron, between: Him and Jerusalem, and that Ktretch of hill in the distance with the pe culiar haze of the Holy Land upon them, looking more like a string of jewels than anything else, are the Mountains of Mohab. Looking off in the direction in which Jesus must have ever turned His eyes, that glis tening light in the distance comes from the Head Sea. but He cares not for beautiful Keeneryv although He was in love with all nature. He, taught all day yesterday and He. must teach to-day, so down the mount ain side He goes, past the garden where later He is to suffer, over the Kidron, in through the gates and He is at the temple and takes His seat, with the people throng ing about Him. The day's work is begun. . f ehall never take this story out of my Bible, and if others remove it" I shall keep it ever in my heart till I .see Him. I Jind in it three ways of treating a sinner. First, the world's way, which is cruel in the extreme. Second, the law's way, which 13 as re lentless as death. Third, the Saviour's treatment, which presents to us a sublimer picture than any thing the AvorM has ever seen. The world's treatment of a sinner. "And early in the (morning He came again into the-temple. and ail the people came unto Him, and He sat down and taught them.. And the Scribes and Pharisees brought unto Him a woman taken irt adultery, and wli3n they had pet her in the midst thev say unto Him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act." Verses! "J-4. bin is an awful thing. .You do not need to turn to the Bible to nr.rWafnnfl read the daily newspapers, keep 3rears old. It is a woman the mob lvi taken and hurried into the presence of the Master. You can 'understand how a man could sin, but not a woman, yet if our hearts were known how many of us. with out respect to eox, would stand con demned in the presence of Him who has a'id that anger is murder and an evil im agination is sin. , The other day in a place of sinful resort si man r.uddenly stood up and rapping on the table with a revolver said, "Hear 3ne," and when other men with frightened faces would-have left the room he commanded them to, stop and said. "I used to liava. a . happy home,i wife and children; now look at me. a horrible wreck, my familv gone, rny situation taken from me. mv 'friends have forsaken me," and before they could stop him he had sent his soul into the presence of his maker. This storv of. a Sw? -i voJaion occurrence, but I know S.cJ,t,ca"y th amc wretched story iol P v ?Sia omrm- 'tan has no respect tor sex. and Kinr. immA , n ,.- w ilul-V, fceum-,.0 tan irom xou avoid lli ii,ui..i. tins: junr eyes onu ears open as you Avaik, the. streets of the city; but still you may read it in this-account, which is .ilrrirwY. onnn has the mark of a contagious disease up!pn it, and yet you can scarcely read a news paper but in it you Will see the awful; de tails ;of 'some heartbreaking scene, a,ndj be fore you know it you are as familiar with the circumstances as if you 'had lived in them yourself, and you place yourself fin danger of being inoculated with the virus of a worse disease than the world has eter seen. Possibly we fail all of us because iy alldw some sin to tarry in our hearts, and with deadening influence which may be jso imperceptible at first it blinds our eyes jto our danger, and causes us to be indifferent to every appeal made to us. 'When Itjbe bid elm on the Boston Common was jdut down a flattened bullet was found ahridst at its heart, and men estimated as they could well do that the bullet had betn fhere for 200 years, and many of us have allowed sins to enter our heartsin the dayk of our youth which .have pursuedj jis until old age and caused our wreck, j 11 f women arc not exempt from sin Cod pity the men. j But this mob that hurried this p)pr Avomari tiito the presence of Jesus was ppt an honest, company of men. I know it be cause in the seventh chapter 1 read thy called Him a deceiver, while in the eighth they addressed Him as Master and TVacfi er. In the sixth verse of this eighth chap ter we. also read that they brought this woman, tempting Him, for they Avantjd to catch Him on cither one of these two points, first, it He accepted Moses' law then they Avould turn the Boman citizens against Him and condemn Him because lie AA-ould put another to death. If He re pudiated the law of Closes the JcAvish pop ulace Avould have .been His enemies, bijt nevertheless it is a true picture of tlje Avorld. Have nothing to do Avith it. there fore; as you love your own souls, bewaije of it. It has slffin its" thousands, and tens of thousands. What ruined Lot's Avifei? the Avorld; what ruined Achan until lie de feated the whole camp of Israel? xtp world; Avha't ruined Judas until he poll I his very soul for greed of Avea'th? thk Avorld; Avhat has ruined ten thousand souFfs that arc to-day shut away from Cod and hope, this isame old Avorld, "And Avhat shall it profit a: man if he gain the Avhole Avorjll and lose his-own soul. ' . y First, the world is critical. It will finy every flaw that exists in your nature; im perfections to which your Wed ones avou'.I be blind, and Avhich you yourself were hardly aware of Avill be pointed outand vulgarly displayed. Second, it is merciless. It has positively no excuse for the man that fails, and Avhil never offering to help him oer his ditiiculj ties AvJien thetide is against him it laughijs at his despair and mocks at his hopeless ness. j Third, it is heartless. There is no forj-giA-enes in the Avorld. There may be some time a disposition to overlook lint not to forgive, and this sort of forgiveness ha nothing in it of a helpful nature to poo lost, sinning humanity. You Avho belong to the Avorld, may I say to you in all sef riousness, don't cast a stone at a mai that is a sinner for t'ne reason that yoii arc, or have been, or may be, just Avhat yoii condemn in others. No one of us exceptj Ave arc linked to the Son of Cod by faith and walking heartily in felloAvship AvitH Him may hope to escape from the ;ivful( grip of Satan. Don't be unforgiving. Hcj that cannot forgive others breaks down tho bridge OAer which he must pass himself j and he Avho is unwilling to forgive others makes it impossible for Cod to forgive him ; but thank Cod avc are not shut up to the Avorld. There is an open door before us to: that which is infinitely better than any-! thing the world has eAcr seen. II. live laws treatment. rsow. .mosc? in the law commanded us that such should bri stoned, but what sayest Thou?" Verso' . This statement is pcrfectlv true, that is the laAv. I t Avas Avi it ten by Moci and written to liim of Cod. There are only two forces in operation to-day in the 'moral world, law and grace. Through one or the other of these forces avo have submitted 'our selves and bv one or the other avc must! hope to ttand before Cod. By the Avay of; the law the case would seem to be hope-l less. One act of sin is sufficient to incur the penalty of death. Jt is ahvays so Avith law; if a man takes one false step in the mountains he lands, himself at the bottom! of the abyss; there is no mercy shown by the law. Dr. Patkhurst gives the descrin-j tion of his' climbing the mountains in 1 Swit7.crlanl Avith a rope around his Avaist.l held bv.two guides, one leading and iht other folloAving after him, Avhcn he stood upon a little piece of rock not two inches broad and looked down into the denth. which measures 3000 feet. If he had bro ken the law of gravitation and stepped out from the narrow ledge nothing could have; sa;ed him from a horrible -death. Yc can nuite understand this in natiire; the same thing applies in morals. If you sin against your health yon suffer. Law is a shrewd detect iA-e, and is ex-er on the watch'. Onef Avheel broken in-the machinery and the Avhole is mefticient; one piece of a rail dis placed means fearful disaster. Just one transgression of one law of God the pen alty must be naid. "He that offends in one point is guilty of all," the Scriptures de clare, -which simply means that the least offense of the laAv means a breaking aAvay from God. : I repeat . my statement that there are but tAvo forces in operation to day in the moral AA'orld. law and grace. If you have rejected Christ then your only hope is in the laAv, and I should think every man here must see that that is bone less. First, you must suffer, for every bro ken law means a penalty to pay. and cvorv transgression of Cod's plan brings down upon you a burden you cannot Avell V-cav. Second, you Avj.ll be found out. No man has -sufficient ingenuity to coA-er up his sin, and no grave lias yet cArcr Nbeen deep enough to save the sinner from the search ing eye of Cod. Be sure your sin Avill find yoii qu.t. A truer tr-xt Avns never Avritten. Third, you must die. The Avagcs of sin is death. I beg you. therefore, tht vou Avill not allow yourself to be controlled by the laAv. It is like the Avorld, merciless and heartless, and presents to you an onpovtu nity.qf escape from sin. but. thank Cod, you arp not shut un to it. There, is a Avay opening up which leads to heaven shining brighter and brighter until f he perfect day. To this Avny T now commend you. ill. Christ's treatment of a sinner. "But Jesus stooped doAvn and .with', His finger Avrote on the ground, as though He heard them not. So Avhen they continued asking liim, He lifted up Himself and, said unto diem, He that is avi thou t sin among you let him first cast a stone at her. And again He stooped down and Avrote on the ground. And they which heard it, being convicted by (heir OAA-n conscience. Avcnt out one by one, beginning at the eldest even unto tho last, and Jesus Avas left alone and the Avom an standing in the midst. When, Jesus had lifted up Himself, and ! saw none but the Avoman, He said unto her. Womann where are those thine accusers? Hath 110 man condemned thee? " She said. No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I con demn thee; go, and sin no more." Front A-erse'G to 11. You haA-e a great pidturc presented to you in this story. - Jirst, the angry crowd. becond, the infinite Saviour. If I Avcro an artist I should paint it, and ATet no man oouid oyer paint the piclure of Christ.

I doubt if any man could 3 trembling Avoman, her face now flushed anjt now pale, trembling in every part or Jiei body, and yet-vou can see it all as you fetop and think. . I 'know why He Was so merci ful. -You say it Avas because He Avas di vine, and that is true -without saying it, but it seems to me He must-have been es pecially merciful because of the night tic had sp nit at-the Mount of Olives. 1 am perfectlv sure that that man who. prays much 'with Christ is ever charitable in lus treatment of those, Atho, have gone astray, Mrs; Whittemore'. tteaimcnt of Bluebird, the poor falleji girl, avIio becomes the mis sionary to the outcast; Jerry MeAuley s arm about S. II. lladley and his prayer, Avhich reveal to the poor sinful man that Jerry McAuley knew Christ, arebut illus trations -of- the spirit of Avhich 1 speak. Tho man Avho has the spirit of Christ CAer gentle Avith the erring, and is up and down the streets ot our cities men go in multitudes longing for just one word of sympathy. ; . Said a young business man. to me tins AA-eek: "I have been four years in NeAV York, most of the time with a heavy heart. To one has ever spoken to me otChnst, nor invited me to the church, nor asked if he could be my friend, and I have never craAed money from any one,; for 1 have not needed it.-, but my heart has been hungry for sympathy and the touch- of a brother's hand." Do you notice the manner of Jesus. First. "lie stooped doAvn and Avrote in the dust." Some one has said that Ho did it just because llt mind Avas occupied Avith thinking AvhatMle should do with the -sinner, and it Avas much thesame snirit as you Avould haA'e'if you Avouldj scribble upon a piecft of paper while your mind Avas tak ing in some Aveighty )Voblem. Some one else h is suggested that in the purity of His nature, standing in the presence of the Avoman of sin. He stooped down to Avrite because He Avould hide the flushing of His own face. That dust that Avas then at His feet is gone forever; only Cod Himself could bring it back, and yet if by miracle He should bring it before us to-night I be lieve 1 know.Avhat would be Avritten there on, "Neither do I condemn thee; go and sin no more." And I am glad that avc are not shut up to the sand. for a-record of that truth. It is written in this book. "There is. therefore, no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus," and this record is eternal. "Heaven and earth shall pass, but Mv Avord shall neA-er pass avay." Second. Avhen He continued with bowed head to Avrite the crowd became -exceedingly anxious, and finally they asked Him Avhat He had to say about the Avoman Avho Avai a inner, and then comes one of the grandest sentences that ever fell from His lips, and gives us all the beauty of His. manhood, as Avell as the poAver of His .God hood'. Avhen He laid, "Let he Avho is'. with out sin cast the first stone." I doubt not the Avoman began to tremble, and she must have said to herself, "My punishment is upon me. for here are these Pharisees Ay ho have made loud professions of their purity, surely they Avill cast the first stone," but never a hand was lilted and never a stone Aas thrown, which only reveals to mc the fact that Avhen men are cast with those men avIio are sinful, not outbreakingly sin ful, but nevertheless wrong in the sight of Cod, avIio of us could cast the first stone in this assembly to-night? The very fact that hand are not lifted and stones are not .thrown is our 0An condemnation, Third, in the ninth A-erse avc read. "And they Avhich heard it being conA-icted by their own conscience, Avent out one by one, beginning at the eldest. CA-en unto theast, and Jesus' A-as left alone and the AA-oman standing tn the midst a That to my mind is the most dramatic scene in all the chap ter, if not in the New Testament. Sud denly the shouts of the mob are hushed, they have, taken their hands off from the trembling woman, they are speechless in the presence of this Son of God, and Avitli out consultation they begin to slink aAvay. I can see them go, until finally the last one is gone and there is the hush of death upon the two as they stand together. You can all but hear the throbbing of their hearts; you can detect the quick breathing of the Avoman, avIio thinks that the time for sen tence lias come. Mercy and pity, face each other, and mercy Avails for pity to speak. "Neither do I condemn thee; go and sin no more."' And ac are ever to remember thret things in connection Avith our Sa viour: First, there is never a question asy to how deeply avo have sinned; the stories of the greatest sinners are told in the Ncav Testament for our hope. Second, there is poAer enough in the bfood of the Son to blot out the deepest sin. Though your sins be as scarlet they shall be as Avhite as snoAv; though they be crimson they shall be, as avooI. . Aud the third thing to remember is if the man Avith sin is like the sands of the sea. for number if he Avould feel the poAA'er of the shed blood of the Son of God he must by real faith and honest confession lay hold upon Him for eternal lifi. His kindness lifted her burden and' the Avorld is just dying to-day for th Avant of sympathy. I think the time is pong past When men are willing in thesq days to spend an hour in listening to abstract rea soning or deep theologfcal discussions. I feel conlident. that the time isj upon us when men are ready to explafri to that church, or that minister ready to bestow a Avord of cheer, ready U help a little in bearing the burden of life. A avo man came Avith a handful of sand to her minister and said, "My sins are like that for number," and he said. "Take the sand back to the sea and let a Avave 10 1 over your handful of sand and they - will be gone. To-night I bring you to the sea greater than any the world has CA'er looked upon. "TIkic is a fountain filled Avith blood, Drawn .'from Immanuefs vein, And sinners plunged beneath tint flood, . Lose all their guilty, stains." . Neither do I condemn thee," said Jesus .'when Till her accusers had "slipped aAvay. We do - not know Avhat became of this Avoman,'' but I am perfectly sure that she .neAer sinned again This is the secret of victory oAer sin: Cvteh a glimpse of the face fairer than all the sons of men, listen ' but ones to Ibe sound of His A'oice.' sweeter tJuL.i ail the. music of earth.', How the man that proachesthe development of character can match this matchless story I cannot see; how thelnan Avho takes the blood out of the Avord of God and the sacrificial part aAVy from the death of Christ can f for a moment compare his message Avith this story of the divine Son of God is more than I can tell. I bid all burdened ones .Aveighcd doA'n because of sin to come into His . presence toiight and-you can hear Him say "Neither do I condemn thee; go and sm no more.' ": Politeness An Attitude Politeness appears to be Avhat goodness really is, and is an attitude rather than an action. : Fine breeding is not the mere learning of any code of manners any more than gracefulness is the mere learning of any kind, of physical exercise. The gentle man apparently as the Christian really, looks not on his OAA'n things, but on the things of others, and the selfish person is lahvavs both un-Christian and ill-bred.

Another. - New York, Special. In opening . his address, former Governor Frank S. Etlack said that Molineiix was a direc tor of the Knickerbocker Athletic Club where Cornish was employed. Moli neux did not like, Cornish j and he did not like Harpster. He had many friends in the club and perhaps many enemies. Cornish wrote what . Molineux consid ered an-improper letter, arid Molineux complained of it. "Was that! any reason for Molineux's sending to j Cornish a quantity of poison sufficient to kill any man in that .club?" asked Mr. Black. "Cornish insulted Molineux and Moli neux behaved like a gentleman, regard ing the difference of their station and passed on. Is that proof of murder? Nothing else under the sky has been produced here to indicate any motive Molineux could have for. .wanting to. kill Cornish. The trouble between Cornish and Molineux occurred more than a year before the poison package appear ed. No evidence has been ! presented here to show that in all that time Moli neux said one unkind word, or uttered one uncharitable thoughtstoward Corn ish. All the evidence in thiscase points away from Molineux and to another man. I shall indicate who that man is before I sit down. The case points to that man as surely as the needle points to the North star." j Mr. Black, laid great stress on Moli neux's .willingness to' write for the prosecution when he was under sus picion before his arrest, and argued that It was remarkable that the experts had found few points of resemblance of his writing to the disputed writing. As to the Barnett letters, he said: "I don't know and don't care When they were written or who wrote them. and Moll- neux does not know and he does not care." Counsel analyzed the! testimony of the handwriting men to jshow how they differed and how all had admitted, under cross-examination, that there were hundreds of characters in the dis puted and conceded writings that in one way resembled each other. Mr. Black said that .'if a man wanted to send a package to himself he would not need to write the address at all. f'My office is full of envelopes and papers ad dressed to me. Could I not take one of those if I wanted to send! myself a package ? Molineux ; never wrote that address. I don't know who did and in my opinion the man who wrote it has not appeared in this case." j Coming to the connection of Cornish with the case, Mr. Black declared that he was not arguing for the punishment of any one, but that he felt it his duty to show the whole case to the jury as, he, himself, saw it. "There was a crime' and there was a motive," he said, "and the motive points to Harry Cornish." Mr. Black recited j records of the Rogers divorce. "Mrs, Adams, Mrs. Rogers mother, was! a good woman," Mr. Black said. "Do you f think , she looked with complaisance on the condi tions that prevailed? There is si. motive the gerat' consuming motive for all things. That motive Cornish had for wishing to be rid of Mrs. Adams." Mr. Black called attention to the. evidence given that the purchaser of vf he bottle holder in- which the poison was sent said he wanted the holder to match the silver on a lady's toilet tablej and from that, he argued ,the purchaser knew the pattern of Mrs. Rogers' silver. Cornish, who was in court! aDDeared to be little concerned by Mr. Black's line of argument. Once or twice, when hisname was mentioned, he laughed aloud. ' y ' '; . .. Ex-Governor lack touched lightly on the testimony given by Mjrs. Ste phenson and argued that Extraordi nary as it appeared and fantastic as Vr., Ccbcn:c may call it, everything she said was within the bounds of pos sibility. He reminded the jury that it was in reply to the prosecution and not to any questions from the defense, that Mrs. Stephenson partially identified Cornish as the man she saw in the post office. Returning to Cornish, Mr. Black said: '.'Cornish took that dirty little bottle home, but when did hetake it? He did not take it home when hP Vnt it. He waited until he had j arranged for five men to identify it in case of need. You are asked to riotW that Cor- nisli was willing to let his fr end King take a dose of the stuff. Of Scourse he: was but wnen ne oirerea it to King tne poison was only at the ton of khP hotin and had not permeated to 1 the : other ) siuir oeiow.' uormsh got it home Just m time. He knew Mrs. Adams was sub ject to headaches and I twelve " hours after the bromo reached the i flat -Mrs Adams had taken it. She was gone' There vas nothing no to .stand in the IC-ed- passion which burns cities and destroys empires " Mr .Black arsrued from tv.o fefr,- of the chemical experts, who analyzed . r i , Slass fr0m' which Mrs. Adams drank, that Cornish lied when he said he drank a J "J ?,a fixture, an d QS Prof. Witthause to prove that half an inch (lepth of the mixture inithe gias would have killed any one who ooiut rnish never tasted that liquid; ff IHFTT imn. - LITE UtMS OF NEW Many Matters of General !
