There is one subject that ex eits the curiosity and inauisitive ness of nil those angels. St. Peter savs. "Whih thins? the nnsrels tlesiro to loolr 1 Is, why did Christ exchange a palace for a i-arnr ny aui lie drop a scepter from J mill iiauii to tnk'H n. onunr into J I ig loft side? Whv nnit t.h antnem of the worshininar heavens t.n hea the crooning of a weary mother's voice? Was a straw netter than a garland? "Could it no have been done in some other wav?" savs augel the llrst. "Was the human race worth Mien a sacrifice!"' says angel the second, now con in heaven get along without Him tor thirty-three years ' savs angel the third nun t-ttrpiuai,ion may siniui ma: rise into our eternal companionship," say angel the fourth. And then they all bend toward each other and talk about it and guess about it and try to fathom it and prophesy concerning it. Hut the subject is too big, and they only nib ble at it. They only break off a piece of it. aneyonly taste it. They just dip into it. Ami then one augel cries, "Worthy ia the ratlin tnat was siain: And another savs, Unsearchable!' And another savs fm...i o . . . . . .. i iniuuiLf out: Ana another says, Aiieiui!" And tbn they all fill their cups ot gold with the "new wine of the kingdom. Unlike the beakers of earth wmch poison, these glow with immortal Health, the wine pressed from the trranea of tne noaveniy ,sncoi. and they all drink to the memory of manger and cross, shattered sepuienerand Oiivetic ascension. Oh. that rapturous, inspiring, transporting theme of tne worlds ransom! That makes angels food. The taking of that food erives stronger pulse to their gladness, adds several morn ings ot radiance to their foreheads. gives vaster circle to tno sweep of their wings on mission interoon- lintion. Some of the crumbs of that angels food fall all around our wilder ness camp to-day, and we feel like crying wuii .ram: -un, tne ueptu ot tne ncnes, both ui me wis.iom ana Knowledge oi tiodl or with expiring Stephen. "Lord Jesus, reoeive my spirit: or with many an enraptured soul '.None but Christ! None but Christ!" Tass around this angels food. Carry it through all these aisles. Climb with it through all these galleries. Take it among all the hovels as well as among all the palaces of the great town. Give all Nations a taste of this angels' ioon. Now, in the emerald palace of heaven let the cupbearers and servants of the King re move this course from the banquet and bring on another course of angels food, which is celestial music. You and I have seen at some concert or oratorio a whole assemblage to whom the mufic was a feast. Never any tniug that they took in at the lips of tlie mouth was so delightful to their taste a that which they took in at the lips of the ear. I have seen and you have seen people actually intoxicated with sweet sounds. Oratorios which are always too pro tracted for those of us who ha ve not had our fa"u!ties cultivated in that direction were never long enougn lor them. As at 11 o clock at night the leader of the orchestra gave the three taps of his baton to again start the music they were as fresh and alert as when. three hours before and at 8 o'clock, the cur tain llrst lifted. Music to them is food for body, food for mind and food fo;- soul. From what I read in mv Bible I think celestialized music will make up a large part of angels' food. Why do I say "celestialized music?" Be cause though music may hav been born in heaven it had not all its charms until it came to earth and took a baptism of tears. Since then it has had a pathos and a tenderness that it could not otherwise have possessed. It ha I to pass under the shadows and over stormy sea? and weep at sepulchers and to be hummed as lullaby over the cradle of sick children before it could mount to its present altitudes of heavenly power. Nj organ on earth would be complete with out the stop "tremolo" and the stop "vox huniana." And no music of heaven would be complete without the';tremolo"' of earthly sorrow comforted and the "vox humana" of earthly sympathies glorified. Just take up the New Testament and find it a notebook of celestialized music. It savs Jesus sang a hymn before He went to the Mount of Olives, and if He could sing on earth with Bethleherr humiliation close behind Him. and sworn enemies close on both sides of Him. and tne torments of Gol gotha just before Him. do you not suppose He sings in heaven 1'aui ana nas sang in midnight dungeon, and do you not suppose that now they sing on the delectable summits? What do harps and trumpets and choirs of revelation suggest if not music? What would the millions of good singers and Dlavers UDon instruments who took part in earthly worship do in heaven without music? who have been distinguished bassos 'and so pranos and prima donnas on earth, I feel will never sine; the son.' .if Afowj n..,i rh t u or put the hps to the trumpet with sounds of victory before the throng, lint many of the masters who charmed us on earth will more mightily charm us in heaven. Great jnnrfic hall of eternity! May yor and I .IttYT some da' to acclaim when the Halleluiah Chorus" is awakened As on earth there have been harmonies made up of other harmonies, a strain of music from this cantata, and a strain of music from that overture and a bar from this and a bar from that, but one great tune or theme, into winch all the others were poured as rivers into a sea, so it may be given to the mightiest soul in the heavenly world to gather something from all the sacred songs we have sung on earth,'or which have been sung in all the ages, and roll them on in eternal symphony, but the one great theme and the one overmastering tone that shall carry all before it and uplift all heaven irom cenrra: throne to Jarthest gate of pearl and to highest eaastom of amethyst will be, 'Unto Hiiii who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, and made us kings and priests unto God and the Lamb to Him be glory!" That will be manna enough for all heaven to feed od. That will be a banquet for immortals. That will be angels' food. Now, in the emerald palace of heaven, let the cupbearers and servants of the King re move this course from the banquet and bring on another course of angels' food, which is laying out of mighty enterprise. The Bible lets us know positively that the angels have our world's affairs on their hearts. They af ford the rapid transit from world to world. Ministering spirits, escorting spirits, defend ing spirits, guardian spirits yea, they have all worlds on their thought. We are told tiieysangtogether at the creation,and that im plied not only the creation of our world, bnt of other worlds. Shall they plan only for our little planet and be unconcerned for a planet 300 times larger? No. They have all the galaxies under their observation. Mighty schemes of helpfulness to be laid out and extscuted, shipwrecked worlds to be towed in, planetary fires to be put out, demoniao hosts riding up to be hurled back and down. These angels of light unhorse an Apollyon with one stroke of l-attleax celestial. They talk these matters ell over. They bend toward each other in sublime colloquy. They have cabinet meetings of winged immortals. They assemble the mightiest of them in holy con sultation. They plan out stellar, lunar, solar, constellated achievement. Thev vie with each other as to who shall do th3 gra idest thing for the eternals. They compose doxol ogies for the temple of the sun. They pre side over coronations. If in the great organ of the universe one key gets out of tune, they plan for its retiming. No undertaking is so ai men it. no post of duty is so distant, no mi.ssion is so stupendous but at God's com mand they are gladly obtained. Now, in the emerald palace of heaven, let the cupbearers and servants of the King re move this course from the banquet and bring on another course of angels' food the last course and the best, the dessert, the cul mination of the feast, which is celebrative jubilance. You and I have known people who prided themselves on never getting excited. They have cultivated the phleg matic. You never saw them cry; you never heard them in a burst of laugh ter. They are monotonous and to me in tolerable. I am afraid of a man or a woman that cannot cry; I am afraid of a man or a woman who cannot langh. Christ says in mo uook oi iieveiationtnat such people are to mm nauseating and cause regurgitation (Revelation iii.. 10) "Because thou art luke warm and neither cold not hot I will spew iueu oui oi iuy mourn. nut the angels in heaven have no stolidity or unresponsive ness, .mere is one thing that agitates them into holy warmth. We know that absolute ly. If their harp be hung up on the panels of amethyst, they take it down and with deft fingers null from am one the strings a canticle. They run in to their neignoore on the same golden street and tell the good news. If Miriam has there cymbals aiiyiuing nte tnose witn which she ner- tormed on the banks of the Bed Sea, she claps them in triumph, and there is a festal table spread, and the best of the angels' food i ftt-i on ii. iv iien is itf it is wnen a man or woman down in the world who was all wrong by the grace of God is made all right (L-ulte xv., 10) "There is joy in the presence of the aneis of God over one sin ner that repenteth. Whv are thev so haonilv K"iiieiir rsecauso they know what a tre mendous thing it is to turn clear around from the wrong and take the right road. It is be cause they know the difference between ewines' trough with nothing but husks and a King s banquet with angels' food.

And when he- angels ot God take on jublianeo over a case of earthly repentance vour friends n heaven will sav: "What new thing has happened? Why full diapason? Why he chime irom the oldest towers of eternity?" The fa.-t is. mv hearers. there are people in heaven who would like to ar trom you. lour children there are wondering when father and mother will come into the kingdom, an! with more gleo than they ever danced in hallway at vour amin.g homo at eventide they will d ince the floor of the heavenly mansion at the idings of father and mother saved. The Spaniard, Evidently Locking foi Cuban Fillbnnterg, Fired in I'.esponH; to the Salnte of the Allianca, Which Showed American Colors The ws Makes a Stir at "Washington. An unknown Spanish gunboat fired a shot across the bows of the Columbia line steam ship Aliianea on March 8 as the latt rwas steaming toward this coast from Cok i be tween Cape Maysi in Cuba and Cape Nichol son in nayti. A similar shot brought about the war between the United States and Eng land in 1812. The ship was threading her way through the Windward Passage, and. according to the statement of her commander and of all others on board, was well clear of the marine league, when a Spanish man-of-war, which was lying inshore, started in pursuit. The Allianca hoisted her colors and dipped them three times as the man-of-war drew near, that being the customary salute which a merchant vessel pays to a vessel of war when meeting upon the eeas. The Spaniard's reply was a blank cartridge fired from her bow guu. Captain Crossman. of the Allianca, was astonished at the act." More to direct attention to the flag ho win sailing under than to pav any additional courtesy to the Spaniard, ho ordered that the flag bo dipped again. The rippling emblem of the free had hard ly been mastheaded Again before another fchot boomed from the pursuer. Captain Crossman, then thoroughly angry, paid no attention to the shot, which was an unwar ranted and arbitrary command to heave to. A few minutes later the Spaniard yawed sharply to starboard, the glint of one of his big bow guns was seen for a moment, and then the vessel was wreathed in a cloud of smoke. Before the report was hoard a heavy shot whizzed toward the American vessel, struck the water About an eighth of a mile astern, ricochettad, and disappeared a'ter a few more splashes over the surface Then an other shot or shell, or whatever the mis sile was. was lired from the Spaniard and struck the water about the same distance astern of the American. Then another pro jectile was thrown from the Spaniard, but that also fell short of the steamship. The Allianca continued her cotirse north, and the gunboat began to chase h er llrlno- solid shot at her, some of which nearlv hit her. " The gunboat chased the American shin fo twenty-five miles, but was gradually drooped astern, the American merchant vessel being the faster boat. The smoke was pouring from the funnels of the She was .seemingly trying her' best to overhaul the Allianea. She evidently had no bow time she fired she had to vnw in order to bring her guns to bear. The Allianca slightly increased her speed after the gunboat began to fire, and had no difficulty in getting away from her. As the Spaniard was dropped astern she hoisted a set of signals, but she was too far away at the time for them to be made out. General Nodza Crosse the I.Uo Ho and Defeat an Army of Ten Thousand Men Colombian Insurgents Kepuled nt Boco Del Toro and the i;ndit Garza Killed France and Venezuela. Advices were received at Paaama of the landing of an armed expedition and desperate battle at Boco del Toro, Colombia. The rebel expedition came from Tort Llmon, Costa Bica, and was led by the notorious Mexican revolutionary inciter, Catarina Garza. He had with him Lieutenants Tereira Castro, Sifonor Moro and others. An attaok was made on the cuartel at four o'clock in the morning, and the fighting was continued until six o'clock. It is reported that Garza was killed by Lieutenant Lopez, who in turn was killed by the rebels. The NO. 503.

Unless the Spanish authorities in Cuba can furnish a satisfactory explanation of the act of the Captain of the Spanish man-of-war in firing upon the American steamer Allianca, serious diplomatic com plications are likely to ensue between the United States and Spain. Secretary Grcshani was not disposed to commit himself on the subject. As soon as he received a mes sage from Captain Crossman. command ing the Allianca, confirming the re ports published in the papers. and adding that a detailed account of t he trans action had been forwarded at once to Wash ington, the Secretary decided to await the re ceipt of Captain Crossman's statement befor calling the attention of the Spanish authori ties officially to the outrage upon the Ameri can flag. The officials of the Navv Depart ment have not been so much interested over a report since Admiral Benham's famous cablegram announcing that the Detroit had fired oa the Brazilian insurgents in Itio Bay. reports indicated that many wero killed on both sides. Kainforcemouts were sent from ranama nt midnight on an express train. They left the train at Colon and there embarked on a eteamer and were hurried to Boco del Toro. It was also reported that fifty men were landed at Boco del Toro from the United State3 cruiser Atlanta. Governor Arango i&ued a decree declar ing the department of Panama in a state of siege. The functions of the Civil Courts have been suspended. The steamer Premier, which arrived at Colon from Cartagena, brought manv nolit.i- cal prisoners, who have been lodged in jail. A further consignment of arms and ammuni tion has been received from New York. CHINESE ROUTED. FIJI ISLANDS DEVASTATED. Several Days of Hurricane Destroy Their Fertile Plantation. Particulars have arrived of a terrible hur ricane which swept over the Fiji Islands a few weeks ago. Several large vessels came to grief. with loss of Hf,., and buildings in Suva, the capital of 1-iji. suffered severely. The town was the centre of the hurricane. It was accompanied by a driving rain, penetrating every thing. The storm continued from Febru ary 7 until 5 o'clock. February 11, and then gradually calmed down. the eoeoanut Plantations will take fully five years to recover and banana plantations have been ruined. This is the most serious hurricane the group has had for ears. The island of Taveunion. where most of the European planters are settled, has been swept from top to bottom. The effect of such a storm must bo famine disease and many deaths. The Government of the Hii Islands has votoH ni,inm , . the more immediate necessities, but this will certainly not prove sufficient. By far the largest number of natives belong to the Methodist Church of the colonv and mission ary societies arc taking steps to give relief.

There is a "corner" in the guinea-pig mar ket. The increased use of anti-toxine has caused a greatly increased demand for ani mals upon which to test the effect of the remedy.

The former price of guinea-pigs was sixty cents each. On account of the scarcity, the price has advanced to seventy-five and ninety cents, and the Health Department of New York City is having difficulty in securing the 200 pigs that they use every month.
