It Into the Region of Perfect Certalotj. A. Glorlona Fafth. Minneapolis, January 24. Dr. Tal mage has been for a few days preach ing and lecturing in Chicago, Minneap olis and -St. Paul and his sermon is on a theme which will absorbinely Inter est all who read It, The - subject Is "Heavenly Recognition," and the text. II Samuel xil, 23, "I shall go to him." . There is a very sick child ln the abode of David the king. Disease, which stalks up the dark lane of the poor and puts Its smothering hand on Hp and nostrils of the wan and wasted, also mounts the palace stairs and bend ing over the pillow blows into the face of a young prince the frosts of pain and death. Tears are wine to the king of terrors. Alas for David the! king. He can neither sleep nor eat and lies prostrate on his face weeping, and' wrailing until the palace rings with the outcry of woe. What are courtly attendants, or vic torious armies, or, conquered provinces under such circumstances? . What to any parent is all splendid surrounding when his child is sick? Seven days have passed on. There in that great house two eyelids are gently closed, two little hands folded, two little feet quiet, one heart still. The servants come to bear the tidings to the king, but they cannot make up their minds ' to tell him, and they stand at the door whis pering about the matter, ana uavia hears them, and he looks up apd says to them, "Is the child dead?" ."Tea, he is dead." David rouses himself up, washes him self, puts on new apparel and sits down to food. What power hushed that tempest? Whstt strength was It that lifted up that king whom grief had de throned? Oh, it was the thought that he would come again into the posses sion of that darling child. No grave- digger's spade could hide him. The wintry blasts of death could not put out the bright light. There would be i a forge somewhere that with silver hammer would weld the broken In a city where the hoofs of the pale horse never strike the pavement he, would clasp his lost treasure. He wipes away the tears from his eyes, and he ' clears the choking grief from his throat and exclaims, "I shall go to him." THE HEAVENLY THRONG. Was David right or wrong? If we part on earth, will we meet again in the next world? "Well," says some one, that seems to be an impossiDiniy. Heaven is so large a place we never could find our kindred there." Going into some city, without having appoint ed "a time and place for meeting, you night wander around for weeks for months, and perhaps for years, and never sev each othf-r, and b vaster than all eart'nly cities together. And how are you going to find y"" narted friend in tha t country? It is so vast a realm. John went up on one mountain of inspiration, and he lontpfl nff upon the multitude, and he said, "Thousands of thousands.". Thn he came upon a greater altitude or msni- ration and looked off upon it. again, and he said. "Ten thousand. times ten thousand." And' then he came on a higher mount of inspiration and looted off again, and he said. "A, hundred and forty, and four thousand and thousands of thousands." And he came on a Still greater height of inspiration. a"d he looked off again -'and exclaimed, A ereat multitude that no man can num ber." Now. I ask. how are you going to find vour friends in such a throng as that? Ts- not this idea we have been enter taining, after all. a falsity? Ts this doc trine of future recognition of friends in heaven a guess, a myth, a whim, or is it a granitic foundation upon which the soul pierced of all ages mav hnild glorious hPe? Intense question! Every heart in this audience throbs rieht into ty. There is in every soui here the tomb of at least one dead. "oropndnus question! It quiver, and the cbeek fmh, ana tne oritire nsture thrill. Shall we know each other there? I get letters almost vrv- month .askine me to discuss this subject. I get a letter in a bold, schol arly hand, on-gilt ederd pawr. asking me to discuss the ouestion a-nd Isav "Ah that is a curious man. and he wants a, curious question solved !" Put I get an other letter. It is written with a tremb ling hand and on whatseemsto b atorh eaf out of a book, and there and hre is the mark of a tear, and I say. "Oh. thft is a broiroi heart, . and it wants to he comforted!" The object of this sermon is to take this theory out of the region of surmise and sneculation into the region of posi tive certainty. People say: "It- "'i be verv pleasant if that doctrine were trup. I hope it may be true. Perhans is true. I wish it were true." Put t believe that I can bring an accumula tion of areument to bear upon this matter which will prove th doctrine of future recognition as plainly, as that here is any heaven at all. and that the Vis,s of reunion, at the celestial gate will nejas certain as tne dying kiss at tne door of the sppulcher. ' FACTS FOR -PROOF. Now. when you are going to built a ship you must get the right kind of timber. You lay the keel and make the frame work of the very best materials the keelson, stanchions, plank shear, counter timber, knees, transoms all iron or solid oak. You may build a ship of lighter material, but when the cy clone comes on it will go down. Now, we may have a great many beautiful theories about the future world bunt out of our own fancy, and they may do very well as long as we have smooth sailing in the world, but when tne storms of sorrow come upon us, and the hurricane of death, we will be swamped we will be foundered. We want a theory built out of God's eter nal word. The doctrin of future recog nition is not so often positively stated in the word of God as implied, and you know,Jmy' friends, that thatfis, after all, the strongest mode of affirmation. Your frieffd travels in foreign lands. He comes home. He does not begin by arsruing with you to prove mat mere are such places as London and Stock holm and Paris and Dresden and Ber lin, but his conversation implies it. And so this Bible does i-not so positively state this theory as, all up and down its chapters, take it for granted. What does my text imply.' "l snail go to him." What consolation would it be to David to go to his child if he would not know him? Would David have been allowed to record this antic ipation for the inspection of all ages if it were a groundless anticipation.' we read in the first book of the Bible: Abraham died and was gathered to his people. Jacob died and was gathered to his people. Moses died and was garn ered to his people. What people? Why. their friends, their comrades, their old companions. Of course it means that. It cannot mean anything else, bo in ine very beginning of the Bible four times that la taken for granted, xne wnoia New Testament is an arbor over which this doctrine creeps like a luxuriant vine full of the purple cluster of con solation. James, John and Peter follow ed Christ into the mountain. A light falls from heaven on that mountain and lifts it into the glories of the celes tial. Christ's garments glow and his face shines like the sun. The door of heaverl swings open. Two spirits come dowr and alight on that mountain. The .dis ciples look at them and recognize them as Moses and Elias. Now, if those dis ciples standing on the earth could rec ognize these two spirits who had been for years In heaven, do you tell me that we with our heavenly eyesight, will not be able to recognize those who have gone out from among us only five, ten. twenty, thirty years ago? The Bible indicates over and over again that, the angels know each other, and then the Bible says that we are to be higher thah the angels, and if the angels have the power of recognition, shall not we, who are to be higher than they in the next realm, have as good eyesight and as good capacity? What did Christ mean in his conversation wth Mary and Martha when he said. "Thy brother shall rise again?" It was as much as to ;say: -'Joh;t cry. Don't; wear-yourselvee out with this'troubje.! Tou will see him again. Thy brother! shall rise again." 1 The Bible describes heaTen as a great home circle. Weil, new, that would be a very queer home circle where the Mem hers did not know each other. The 31ble describes death as a sleep. If we enow each other before we go to sleep, shall we not know each other after we wake up? Oh, yes. We will know -;ach other a great deal better - then man now, "For now," says the apostle, "we see through a glass darkly, but then face to face. It shall be my puri led, enthroned and glorified body gaz ing on your purified, enthroned and glorified body. REASONS FOR BELIEF.' Now, I demand, if you believe the Bible, that you take this theory of fu ture recognition out of the realm of speculation and surmise into the re ?ion of positive certainty, and no more 'seep saying: "I hope it is so. I have an idea It is so. I guess it la so." Be able to say, with all the concentrated anergy of your body, mind and soul, "I know it is so!" There are, in addition to these Bible arguments, other reasons why I accept this theorv. in the first place, because the rejection of it implies the entire obliteration of our memory. Can it be possible that we shall forget forever those , with whose walk, look, manner we have been so long familiar? Will death come, and with a sharn, keen blade hewr away this faculty of mem ory? Abraham said to Dives. "Son, re member." i Tf the exiled and lost re member, will not the enthroned remem ber? ! You know very weir that our Joy In any circumstance is ausTnnted by the companionship of our friends. We can not see a picture with less than four eyes, or hear a sone with lea's than four ears. We want some one beside us with vhom to exebanee glances and evmnathv. and I suppose the joy of heaven is tc be augmented bv the fact that we are to have our friend with ii when ther rie hfor u the thrones of the blessed, and wen thor stirewi ni in our ear the Jubilate of th saved. Heaven is not a contraction. It is nn expansion. If I know you here, I will know you better there. Here I ee you with only two eyes, but there the soul shall have a million eyes. It will be immortality gazing on immortality ransomed spirit in colloquy with ran somed spirit victor bes'de victor. When John Evans, the Scotch minister, was seated in his study, his wife came in and said to him, "My dear, do you think we will know each other in Heaven?" He turned to her and said, "My dear, do you think we will be big ger fools in Heaven than we are here?" . Again, I accept this doctrine of fu ture recognition because the world's expectancy affirms it. In all lands and ages this theory Is received. No form of religion, for it in received under all forms of religion. Then, I argue, a sen timent, a feeling, an anticipation, uni versally implanted. nuct have been Ood implanted, and if God Implanted It is rightful'v imp'anted. Socrates wr tes: j'Who would not part with a great deal to purchase a meeting with Ornheus and Homer? If.it be true that this is to be the oonseotonr of 'death, I could even be able to die often." Among the Danes, when a master dies, his servant sometimes slays h'm !flf that he may serve the master in the future world. Cicero, living before Christ's coming, said: "Oh, glorious day when I shall retire frem th's low and sordid scene to associate with the divine assemblage of deDarted snirUs, and not only with the one I have Just mentioned, but with mv dear Cato, the best of sons and . mot faithful of men. TfT seemed to bear his death with for titude, it was bv no means that I did not ;most sensibly feel the loss I had sustained. It was because I was sup ported bv the consoling reflection that we could not lnnsr bo senarateV The Norwegian believes it. The In dian believes it. The Greeniander be lieves it. The Swiss bei'eve it. The Turs .believe it. TTnder everv sv. by everv fiver, in every zone, the theory is sdojnted. and so T sav a nr'nolnle unjversallv 'mnlanted m"st be God Im planted, and hence a right belief. The argument is irresistible. SOUL FEATURES. . Again, I adopt this theory because there are features of moral tempera ment and features of the, soul that will distinguish us forever. How do we know each other in this world? Is it i merelv by the color of the eye, or the length of the hair, o'r the facial 'pro portions? Oh, no. It is by the disposi tion as well, by natural affinity, using the word in the very fcjt sense and not in the bad sense, and if in the dust our body should perish and -lie there forever, and there should be no resur rection, still the soul has enough fea ture and the disposition has enough features to rmake us distinguishable. I Can understand, how in sickness a mar will become so delirious that he will not know his own friends, but will we be blasted with such Insufferable idocy hat, standing beside our best friends for all eternity, we will neVer guess who they are? I Again, I think that one reason why we ought to accept this doctrine is be cause -we never in this world, have an opportunity to give thanks to those to whom we are spiritually indebted. The joy of heaven, we are told, is to be inaugurated by a review of life's work. These Christian men and women who have been tolling for Christ, have they seen the full results of their work? Oh, no! ! In the church at Somervllle, N.' J.. John Vredenburgh preached for a great many years. He felt that his ministry was a failure, although he was a faith ful minister preaching the gospel all the time. He died, and died amid dis couragements, and went home to God, -for no one ever doubted that John Vre denburerh was a good Christian minis ter. A little while after his death there came a great awakening in Somervllle, and one Sabbath 200 souls stood up at the Christian altar espousing the cause io-f Christ, among them my own father and mother. And what was peculiar in regard to nearly all of those 200 souls was that they dated their religious im pressions from the ministry of John Vredenburgh. Will that good Christian man before the .throne of God never (meet those souls brought to Christ ; through his instrumentality? Oh, of course he will know them. I remember lone Sabbath afternoon, borne down With the sense of my sins and knowing not God. I took up Doddridge's "Rise and Progress." Oh. what a dark after noon) is was, and I read the chanters, and 1 read the prayers, and I triad to make the prayers my own. Oh, I must see Philip Doddridge. A glorious old book he wrote! It is out or fashion now. There is a mother before the throne of God. You say her Joy is full. It is? You say there can be no augmentation of it. Cannot there oe? Her son was a4 wanderer and a Vagabond on the earth when that good mother aied. He broke her old heart. She died leaving him in the wilderness of sin. She is before the throne of God now. Years pass, and that son repents of his crimes and gives his heart to God and becomes-a useful Christian and dies and enters the gates of heaven. You tell me that that moth er's joy cannot be augmented? Let them confront each other, the son and the mother. "Oh," she says to the an gels of God, "rejoice with me! The dead is alive again and the lost is found. Hlleluiah! I never expected to see this lost one come back." The Bible says nations are to be born in a day. When China comes to God, will it not know Dr. Abell? When India comes; will It not know DrJ John Scrudder? When the Indians come to God.j will they not know David Bralnerd? ; SOUL MODESTY. I see a soul entering heaven at last, with covered face at the idea that it has done so little for Christ and feeling borne down wjith unworthlness, and it says to itself,' "I have no right to be here." A voice from a throne says: "Oh, you forget that Sunday schoo class you invited to Christ! I was ope) of them." And another yojee ' says'; "You forget that poor man to Whdtn you gave a loaf of bread and told of the heavenly brad. I was that man.! And another says: "Ypu forget that sick one to whom you gave medicine for . the body and the soul. I was that one.!' And then Christ, from a throng qvetr topping all the' rest, will' say, "Inas much as ye did it . to one' of e leqst of these, you did it to me." And then, the seraphs will take thtlr harps from the side of the throne and cry, song shall it be?" And Christ, bending over the harpers, shall say, "It shall be the harvest home!" One more reason why I am disposed to accept this doctrine of future recog nition is that so many in their '-t hour on'earth have confirmed thi the ory. I speak not of persons who have been delirious in their last moment and k"ew not what they were about, but of persons who died in calmness and placidity, and who wes not naturally superstitious. Often the glories '.v-of heaven have struck the dying' tJtllow' and the depa.rtf tHanj has said he saw and heard .those who had gone awy. rrorn mm. now oiien u is m toe dying moments parents . see tneir departed children and children see thtlr denarted parents! - X came down to the banks of ' the Mohawk river. It watt wentns andi I wanted to go over the fiver, and! s I waved my hat and shouted, and after awhile I saw some one waving on jthf .opposite bank, and I heard, him shout; and the boat came across, and I tjroi in and was transported. And so I sp4 pose It will be in the evening of ue life. We will come down to the riveij of death and give a signal t- ue friends on the other shore, and they will give a signal back to us, and the bfaS comes, and our departed kindred afeg the oarsmen, the fires of the setting day tinging the tops of the paddles,- j j Oh. have you never sat by such! a deathbed? In that hour you hear the departing soul cry. "Hark! Look!" Youj hearkened and you looked. A little child, pining away because Qfjthe death! of its mother, getting weaker and weaker every day, was takejf into the room where hung the picttre of ker mother. She seemed to enjoy looking at it, 'and then she was taken away, and after awhile died. In the last moment that wan and wasted little qne lifted her hands, while her face light ed up with the glory of the next world and cried out, "Mother!" Do you tioll me she did not see her mother? che did. So in my first settlement at Belle ville a plain man said to me: "What do you think I heard last night? I was in the room where one of my neighbors j was aying. .tie was a gooa man, ana he said he heard the angels of God singing before the throne. I havi't much poetry about me, but I listened and I heard them too." - Said I. "I hae no doubt of it." Why, we are to jSe taken up to heaven at last by minister ing spirits. Who are they to be? Souls that went up from Madras, or Antioch, or Jerusalem? Oh, no; our glorified kindred are going to troop around us! AN IDEA OF HEAVEN. Heaven is not a stately, formal placie, as I sometime hear it described, a vety frigidity of splendor, where people stand on cold formalities and go around about with heavy crowns of gold cjn their heads. No, that Is not my idea f f heaven. My idea of heaven is more like this:. You are seated in the evening tide by the fireplace, your whole family there, or nearly all of them there. While you are seated talking and en joying the evening hour there Is a knock at the door and the door opens, and' there comes in a brother that has been long absent. He has been absent, for years you have not seen him, and no sooner do you make up your mind that it is certainly he than you leap up, and the question is who shall give him. the first embrace. That is my idea of heaven a great home circle where they are waiting for us. Oh, will you not know your mother's voice there? She who always called you by your firsk l name long after others had given yot the formal "mister?" You were never anything but James, or John, or Georg or Thomas, or Mary, or r lorence . if her. Will you not know your child" voice? She of the bright eye and the ruddy cheek, and the quiet step, whi came in from play and flung nersei into your lap, a very shower of mirtn and beauty? Why. the picture is graven in vour soul. It cannot wear out. If that little one should stand on 'the oth er side of some heavenly hill and calk to you, you would hear her voice abovj the hurst of heaven's great orchestra Know it! Tou could not help but known it. Now I bring you this glorious con solation of future recognition. If you could get this theory into your heart it would lift a great many shadowd that are stretching across it. When I was a lad. I used to go out to the rail road track and put my ear down on th track, and I could hear the expres train rumbling miles away and coming on. and today, my friends, if we oniv had faith enough we could put our eai down to the grave of our dead and lis-j ten and hear in the distance the rumb ling on of the chariots of resurrection victory O heaven! sweet heaven! Tou do not spell heaven as you used to soell it- h-e-a-v-e-n, heaven. But now when you want to spell that word, you place! side by side the faces of the loved ones who are gone, and In that irradiation' of light and love and beauty and J05J you spell it out as never before, irj sones and hallelunans. nn, ye wnoa hearts are down under the sod of the; cemetery, cheer up at the thought of this reunion! Oh, how much you will have to tell them when once you meei them! -' BEFORE THE THRONE. , How much you have been through since vou saw them last. On the shin ing shore you will talk it all over. Th4 heartaches, the loneliness, tne sleep less nights, the weeping until you had, no more power to weep, because th heart was withered and dried up. Storj of vacant chair and empty cradle an little shoe only half worn out. nevef to be worn again. Just the shape of th$ foot that once pressed it. And dreams when you thought that the depafteq had come back asraJn. and the room seemed bright with their faces, and yoi started ud to greet them ana in tne effort the dream broke and you found yourself standing amid room In the midnight alone. Talking it " vrj and then, hand in hand, walking un and down in the light. .No sorrow, nd tears, no death. O heaven! beautiful heaven heaven where our friends are Heaver where we expect to be! Tn the east they take a cage of . birds and! bring it to the tomb of the dead, and then they open the door of the cagej and the birds, flying out, sing. And would today bring a cage of Christian consolation to the grave of your loved! ones, and I would open the door and let them fill all the air with the musid of their voices. Oh. how they bound in, these spirits) before the throne! Some shout with gladness. Some break forth into unj controllable weeDlng for Joy. Some stand sneechless in their shock of de light. They sing. They quiver with) excessive gladness. They gaze on thei temples, on the palaces, on the waters, on each other. They weave theirJoy into garlands, they spring it into triumphal arches, they strike on tim brels, and then all the loved ones gath er in a great circle around tb throne of God fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, sons and daughters, lovers and friends, band to hand around about the throne the circle, hand to hand, Joy to Joy, Jubilee to Jubilee, victory to vic tory, "until the day break and the shadows flee away. Turn, my beloveds and be like a roe or a young hart upon the mountains of Bether." Oh, how different it is on earth from the way it is in heaven when a Christ ion dies! We say, "Close his eyes." In heaven they say, "Give him a palm." On earth we say, "Let him down in the ground." In heaven they say, "Hoist him on the throne." On earth it is, "Farewell, farewell." In heaven it is.j "Welcome,- welcome." And so I see a Christian soul coming down to the rivers of death.he steps into the river.and thei water comes up to the ankle. He says, "Lord Jesus, is - this death?" "No," says Christ, "this ,is not death." And he wades still deeper down Into the waters until the flood comes to the knee, and he says, "Lord Jesus, tell me. tell me, is this death?" And Christ says, "No. no; this is not death." And he wades still farther down until the waves comes to the girdle, and the soul says. VLord Jesus, is this death?"; '.'No," says Christ, "this is not." And deeper in wades the soul till the billow strikes the lip, and the departing one cries, . "Lord Jesus, is this ?" "No," says Christ, "this is not." But when Christ had lifted this soul on a throne of glory, and all the pomp and joy of heaven came surging to its ft. then Christ said, "This, O transported soul, this is death!" - Flectric Bltfers.

Speculation at the stock exchange was quiet again today, the sales aggregating only 129, 953 shares. The opening was quiet, fol lowing which an advance of to 1M took place. The firmness at this time was partly the result of a reduction in the posted rates of sterling exchange of c to 4.85 to 4.87, and partly to the fact that the bears did not continue their raid of Saturday. The loss in the ! St. Paul earnings for the third week . of January, which proved to be much smaller than expected, was also used with good effect. London again sold, in the local market, parting with about I 5,000 shares of various stocks. In the ' industrial group General Electric was notably firm on the announcement, that the deal for the equipping of the Fourth, Sixth and Eighth avenues sur face lines had been perfected. Tobacco, however, was down to 73 on the legal complications of the company The -feature of the afternoon, trading was the heaviness of the anthracite coalers. Lackawana fell 2 to 152, Del aware and Hudson 2-7 to 106, Jersey Central 2 to 98 and Reading to 25 The selling was baaed on the belief that the annual reports of the larger companies now about due, will com pare very unfavorably, with previous years. On the statement that the New York and Escanaba, one of the Dela ware and Hudson leased lines, had is sued $1,000,000 4 per cent, gold de benture bonds last year led to free sell ing of Delaware and- Hudson shares and played' right, into the hands of the bears. The general list yielded to 1 from the highest of the morning, in sympathy with the coalers, but in the final dealings . there was a fractional rally. The market closed rather weak in tone. Net changes show losses of to per cent, in the general list and 1 to 2 In the coalers. Bonds were firmer. The transactions footed up $1,015,000. Cotton FnrniW. (Special to The Messenger.) New York, January 25. The cotton market was very dull today. Receipts, i while not heavy were fairly liberal. The bears took advantage of these two conditions to sell the market down a 1 few points, but at the close the sellers seemed rather anxious to buy back what they had sold. March opened at 7.05, advanced to 7.09, declined to 7.03 : and closed at 7.06 to 7.07, with theltone steady. We can see no change in the situation and favor buying on breaks. i RIORDAN & CO.

The Sun's cotton 'review says:- Spot cotton de clined I-16c, with sales of 2,600 bales for exports and 198 for spinning; 500 bales were delivered on contract. The specu lation today was devoid ot Interesting developments. The trading was In the main of a local, scalping character and the fluctuations in prices were confined within narrow limits. Liverpool was lower and prices here declined in sym pathy at the opening. After the first transactions, however, the tone became stronger in the absence -of any decided Belling pressure and prices slowly ad vanced. Local shorts covered and Liv erpool bought here on a moderate scale. Before the close, however, the price weakened again and slowly receded, the market closing steady at a slight net decline for the day. ; The receipts were free and the New Orleans estimate for tomorrow was also liberal, but the worst feature was the stagnation of speculation. - ' i The Chleago Marketa. 4, Chicago, January 25.
