Think of a man entering the syn

he wanted somebody to envy him!
Think of a man In the sacred deBk

Think of a man going into the pul

That was what some men were doln
in Rome, and Paul, bound hand and
foot In prison,' rejoiced at it.
It often happens that the avowed
motive Is not the true one. The mo
tive of these preachers was evil but
they preached. And without Intend
ing to do any good they preached
Christ. And Paul was glad, not bc-
r-ause of the movtle but the accom
plishment. They did God's work in
the devil's way. And Paul was glad.
not because of the way but the work
Once Jesus spoke to a multitude
ajid to his disciples and Bald, "The
Scribes and Pharasees sit in Moses
Beat, All things whatsoever they
bid you", that' do,- but do ye not af
ter their works." Then follows his
scathing words to those preachers
He calls them blind guides, whited
sepulchres, and a generation of vi
pers.
Cyrus, king of the Medo-Persian
power.waa a cruel heathen liar, but
God allowed his people to listen to
-
him for he told them to return to
Jerusalem and rebuild God's house.
Many beautiful songs were, writte
by Solomon, and God bids us chant
them as the songs of Zion, although
we would not for all the gold live
the squalid life that Solomon Jived
in a heathen harem nor experience
his doubts and fears as .they quake
Eccleslastes.
King Saul with insane folly was
seen amonz the prophets. Balaam
wanted to curse the people of God
for Balack's bags of gold, but he
spoke a blessing.
Jesus once sent out his twelve
apostles to heal all manner of dls
eases ana cast out aemons auu

did so. Yet Judas was among those
men Jesus wanted the people to hea
preach.
Christ spoke of the judgment da
when preachers will say to him,
"Have we not prophesied in thy
name? And in thy name cast out
devils? And in thy name done many
wonderful works? But He will pro
fess unto them, "I never knew you.'
Their hearts were iniquitous bu
their accomplishments wonderful an
their Dreachine eood to hear. So
Paul rightly rejoices .at the preach
ing of these base men.
And now, what of the sermon?
"Whether in pretence, or in truth.
Christ Is preached."
Good results often come from bad
intentions. The bad Intention does
not make the result bad. The good
result does not make the Intention
good. The intention belongs to' the;
Intender. and the result belongs to
the recipient. The Psalmist says
"Surely the wrath of man shall
praise thee; the remainder of wrath
shalt thou restrain."
The sons of Jacob.with murderous
hearts and greedy desires, sold their
younger brother and dipped the col
ored coat of his pride fn the blood
of a goat. But by his going imo
Egypt he saved two nations.
Truth is mighty in itself, not i
the breath of the proclaimer. Tftere
is virtue in .the Gospel, not always
In the gospeler. There is helpf ulnes
in the exposition, not always truth
In the expounder.

Los Angeles, Cal., Nov. 19.
Armed with un infernal machine
containing enough dynamite to de
stroy an entire city block, a bottle
of nltro-glycerlne and a 45-callber
revolver, a marked maniac took pos
session of the Central police station
today and held it for more than an
nour, while hundreds of occupants
of the building and those for blocks
around, panic-stricken, sought safe
ty In distance.
When Detective James Hoslck
knocked the man unconscious with
a leather "billy" after slipping up
behind bim, the fuse of the infernal
machine was automatically Ignited.
Detective Samuel L. Brown grabbed
the box with its fuse sharply sput
tering and hurled it Into the street.
Sticks of high-powered dynamite
scattered over the pavement while
hundreds of spectators stood ap
parently paralyzed by fright.
Through a freak of chance there
was no explosion and Brown con
tinued kicking the sticks of dyna
mite and jumping on the fuse until
he had broken the connection and
extinguished the fire.
Manacled to a cot in the receiv
ing hospital tonight the would-be
dynamiter, who gave his name as
Albert Henry Davis, is suffering
with several severe scalp wounds
but the police surgeons say his in
juries are not serious.

"I've got enough dynamite to blow outer room which wa8 at
us all Into eternity," he said, "and
I want you to send for the highest
official of the Southern Pacific Rail
road." The masked visitor rested the box
on a filing cabinet and Assistant
Listrlc Attorney R. O, Graham, who
was in the or nee, started joKing
with him. "This is no joke," said
Davis. "I mean business and if
you don't believe It try to take this
away from me. My hand is fasten
ed in this box and if I pull it out
bang we all die."
A hole had been cut in the box
and the occupants of the room saw
lor the first time that the man's
left hand was hidden in the box.
They began to realize that it was
no Joke. Davis then walked ia:o
the office of Police Secretary C. E.
Snively, which opens into the pri
vate office of Chief Sebastian, aid
repeated his request that the hea.1
official of the Southern Pacific be
summoned Snively asked him if he
mm any preference in the man ne
'.esired to blow up and he replied
that to only wanted the head man.
Snively then took down the tele-
Phone receiver and pretended to
hjiil a conversation with Paul SVmp
geneial manager of the Pacific Elec
trie Company.
"Mr. Shoup is busy but he will :io
here in about 15 - minutes," sai l
Snively.
"Well he'd better hurry," replied
Davis. "I'm getting nervous."
In the meantime Chief Sebastian
who had had a brief conversation
with the man and realized that he
was in earnest ordered the street
roped off for a block either way
and took step to have the 100 pris
oners in the, city prison removed.
Upstairs in the building two justice
courts were in session and both
court rooms were crowded.
Realizing the necessity of keeping
the man's attention engaged until
the building was cleared and ; some
means devised for foiling his plans,
Secretary Snively and the detectives
carrieds on a conversation with him.
"Why didn't you go down to the
Southern Pacific and ' blow up the
man you wanted?" he was asked.
"Well," he replied thoughtfully,
"I thought the police could handle
it better and I wanted to do a good
job. I might have killed the wrong
ones otherwise."
While the conversation was in.
