I Drotest atrainst this invasion of the holy
sabbath in the first place because it is a war
a Divine enactment. God says la Isaiah,

vO displeased wltn a grand sacred concert :
1 gentleman who was present at a "grand
sacred concert" one Sabbath night in one of
the theatres of our great cities said that dur
ing the exercises there were comic and senti
mental songs, interspersed with coarse jokes.
tnd there were dances and a laree and tignr-
rope walking and a trapeze performance. I
oppose it was a noiy aance ana a consecrated
tight rope. That is what they call a "grand
sacred concert.
We hear a great deal ot talk about "the
rights of the people" to have just such
amusements on Sunday as tney want to
have, I wonder if the Lord has any rights.
Ion rule your family ; the governor rules the
(itate ; the president rules the whole land,
i wonder it the Lord has a right to rule the :
laliojis and make the enactment, "Remem
ber the Sabbath day to keep it holy," and if
there is any appeal to a high court from
that decision, and if the men who are war-,
ring against that enactment are not guilty of
jigu treason against the Maker ot neaven and
earth. They have ia our cities put God on
trial. It has been the theaters and the" opera
bouses, plaintiffs, versus the Lord Almighty,
defendant. The suit has been begun, and
who shall come out - ahead you know.
Whetnerit be" popular, I now announce it as
my opinion that the people have no rights
Bave those which the great Jehovah gives
tnem. He has never given the right to man
to break His holy Sabbath, and as long as His
throne stands He never will give that right.
The prophet Rks a question which I can
easily answer, "Will a man rob God?" Yes,
They robbed Him last Sunday night at the
theatres and the opera house, and I charge
upon them the infamous and high handed
lirceny. I hold the same opinion as a sailor
I have heard of. The crew bad been dis
charged from a vessel because they would
not work while they were in port on the
Lord's day. The captain went out to get
sailors. He found one man, and he said to
him, "Will you serve me on the Sabbath?"
'No." "Whv not?" "Well." replied the old
sailor, "a man who will rob God Almighty
of His Sabbath would rob me of my wages if
he irot a ohance. . . .
Rnrmose vou were poor, and you came to
a drygoods merchant and asked for some
ninth for earments. and he should say, "I
will (rive vou six. yards," and while he was
off from the counter and binding up thesis
vards you should go behind the counter and
steal one aaamoaai varu. jw
ever? man does when he breaks the Lord's
fi.hhab. , God elves us six days out of
err en. reaervmir one for Himself, and if you
will not let Him have it, it is mean beyond
ail computation.
Again, I am opposed to this desecratisn
of the Sabbath by secular entertainments te
oause it is a wsr on the statutes of most of
tie Btates. The law ia New York State says
"It shalL'not be lawful to exhibit on the
first day of the weak, commonly called Sun
day, to the publie In any building, garden,
grounds, concert room or other room or
place within the city and county of , New
York, any interlude; tragedy, comedy, opera,
ballet, play, farce, negro minstrelsy, negro
r other dancing. Of any other entertain-
ment of the stage, or any part or parts ther.
n, or any equaetrian, circus or dramatic
performance, or any perrortnauce of ju?
flerg, acrobats or rope dancins?." V
Was there ever a plainer enactment than
that? Wjio male the law? You' who at th

and now I say that any man whoattempsto
override that law lusults you an l ma an.1
every man who has the right ot auffrig.
Still further, I protest against the invasion
ot the Sabbat a because it is a foreifa war..
Now, if you heard at this moment the Room

and yet I have to tell you that this Jnv.islon
of God's holy day is a foreign war.

How do -you fel ye who have been
brodght dp amid the bills of New England,
about giving up the American Sabbath? Yt
who spent your childhood under the shadow
of the Adirondacks or the C.itsklUsye who
were born on the banks of theS tvanuah or
Ohio or Oregon, how do you feel about giv
ing up the Amerloan Sabbath? Yon say
"We shall not give it up. We mean to 'de
fend it as long as there is left anv strengU'
in our arm or blool iu our" heart Do 'not
bring your Spanish Sabbath hare. D not
bring your Italian Sabbath here. Do no1
bring your French Sabbath here. Do not

bath.".. . v-
I will make a comparison between tho
American Sibbith. a soma of you have
known it, an 1 the P.trislnn Sabbath, I speak
from observation. On a Sabbath morning I
was aroused in Paris by a great sound in ths
street. I said. "What ia this?" "Oh," they
said, "this is Sunday." An unusual rattle
of vehicles of all sorts. .The voices seemod
more boisterous than on other days. Peoplti
running to and fro. with baskets or bundles.
to get to the rail trains or gardens. It seemed
as it all the veh teles in Paris, of whatever
sort, had turned out for the holiday. The
Uhamps Eiysees one great moo ol pleasure
seeking people. Balloons flying, r Parrots
chattering. Footballs rolling. Peddlerc
hawking their knickknacks through the
si reels. Punch and Judy shows in a score of.
places, each one with a shouting audience.
Hand organs, eymbais and every kind ot
racket, musical and unmusical. When the
evening came down, all the theaters were in
full blaze of mustd and full blaze ot light.
The wine stores and saloons were thronged
with an unusual uumber ot customers. . At
eventide I stood and watched the excursion
ists coming home, fagged out men, women
and children, a gulf stream ot fatigu&'irrita
btllty and wretchedness, for I should think
it would take three or four dayS to set over
that miserable way ot Sundaylng. It seemed ,
moro like an American .Fourth of July than
a Christian Sabbath.
Now; in contrast. I present one of the Sab
-tmrti.s iu one - ofjout Jbest American cities.
Holy silence coming down with the day
dawn. Business men more deliberately look
ing into the faces of their children and talk
ing to them about their present and future
weii'are. Hen sit longer at tne taoie in tn
morning, because the stores are not to b
opened, and the mechanical tools are not to
be taken up. A nymn is sung. There are
congratulations and good cheer all through
the house. The street silent until 10 o'clock:
when there is a regular, orderly tramp
churchward. Houses of God, Tocal with
thanksgiving for mercies received, with
prayer.for comfort, wltn caaritios lor the
poor. Rest for the holy. Rest for the soul.
The nerves quieted, the temples cooled, the
mind cleared, tue sout strengtneneu, ana
our entire population turned out on Monday
morning ten years younger, better prepared
for the duties of the life, better prepared for
the life that is to come. f .
Which do you. like best the American
Sabbath or the Parisian Sabbath? Do you
know in what boat the Sabbath came across
the seas and landed on pur shores? It was
in the Mayflower. -Do you know in what
boat the Sabbath will leave u, if it ever
goes t It will be in the ark that floats over a
deluge ot national destruction. .
Still further. I protest against the invasion
ot the Lord's day because it wrongs a vast
multitude of employes of their rest. Ths
play actors and actresses can have their rest
between their engagements, out bow about
the scene shifters, the ballet dancers, the
callboys, . the innumerable attendants and
supernumerles ot the American "theatre?
Where is their Sunday to come from? They
are paid small salaries at the best Alas.
for them ! Thev armear on the staare in tinsel
and tassel with halber is, or in gauze whirl
ing in toe tortures, and they might be mis
taken for fairies or queens, but after 1 o'clock
at night you may see them trudging through
the streets in faded dresses, shivering and
tired, a bundle under their arms, seeking
tnelr homes in the garrets and cellars of the
city. Now. you propose to take from thou
sands ot these employes throughout this
country not only all opportunity ol moral ,
culture, but all opportunity ot physical rest.
For heaven's sake, let the crushing lugger-
naut stop at least one day in seven, -
Again, I oppose this modern invasion ol
the Christian Sabbath because it is a war on
the spiritual welfare of the people. You
nave a body? . xes. sou nave a mind yes.
You have a soul? Yes. Which ot the secular
halls on the Sabbath day will give that soul
any culture? Now, admitting that a man
has a spiritual and immortal nature, which
one of the places of amusement will culture
it? Which ona ot the Sabbath performances
will remind men of the fact that unless they
are born again they cannot see the kingdom
of God? .
Will the muslo ot the "Grand Duchess"
help people at last to sing the song of tbe
one hundred and forty and four thousand?
Besides, if you gentlemen of the secular en
tertainment bave six days in the week ia
which to exercise your alleged beneacial in
fluence, ought you not to allow Christian In
stitutions to have twenty-four hours? Is it
unreasonable to demand that if you have six
days for the body and intellect we should
have one day at least for our immortal sout
Or. to put it in another shape, do you really
think our imperishable soul is worth nt
least one-seventh as much as our perishable
body?
An artist has three gems a cornelian, an
amethyst and a diamond. He has to cut
them and' to set tbenv Which one is he
most particular about? Now. the cornelian
Is the body, the amethyst is th infV'lect, the
diamond is the soul- For the twojormr
you propose six uays ot opportunity,- while
vou offer no opportunity nt all for tha last,
which is in value a eompared with tho
others like tlOO.000,000,000 to one farthing.
Besides you must not forget that nine-tenths
--sye, ninety-nine one-hundredths-of all
theCbrlstian efforts of this country are put
forth on the Lord's day. . Sunday is the day
on which the asylums and hospitals and the
prisons are visited by Christian men., That
is the day when th youth of our country
get their religious information in Bun lay
schools. That is the day when the most of
th charities are collected. That is the day
when, under the. blast of 60,005 American
pulpits, the sin of, the land is assaulted and
men are summoned to repent When you
make war upon any part of Gotff day, you
make war upon the asylums, anl, the pent
tentari. and the hospitals, ant th reform
association, and the homes of tu destitut
and the church of the living God. which is
the pillarandthe ground of the truth.
I am opDOsad to the invasion of the Sab
bath raius 1t is a war o our polltlctl in
stitution. When taa ssbbtMi mm iiownr.
the republic go-s down, Meu wh ar not
willing to obay God' law in reg-tri to S ib
hath observance are not fit to govern them
selves. Sabbath breaking maana dissolute
ness, and dissoluteness is incompatible with
nelf government. Ttaw wanted a republic in
France. After awhlle-'they got a republic,
but oifb dmy Napolson HI., with his cavalry,'
rode through th4 streets, and down went the
republia under the tattering hoofs. " .They
Ssfistiifli
have a republic there again, but France
never will have a permanent" republic until
she quits her roistering Sabbaths and devotes
one day In every week to the recognition ot
God and sacred Institutions. Abolish the
Sabbath, and you abolish your religloui
privileges, Let the bad work go on, and you
hae "the-, COmmttne," and you have
'the
revolution14 and dii haVe the itm of national
nroanerliv . arointf doirn id darkness and
blood. From that reiga ot terrof may the
God of peace deliver us. '-.v: ' .
StUI further, I am opposed to this invasion
of the Sabbath becanse it is unfair an i it is
partial. While secular amusements in dif
ferent cities are allowed to be open n the.
Sabbath day, drv goo is establishments must
be closed, and plumbing establishments, and
the butcher's, and the baker's, and the shoe
maker's, and the hardware at ores, Now, tell
me by yfhat law of Jdstlos you dau compel a
man to sbtttthrt doof of hta stdf while you
keep open the door of your worldly estaV
lUhment. May it ; please your ( honor,
juiges of tbe supreme court, if voti give to
senilar places the rlgat to be open oa the
Sabbath day? you have to give, at the same
time, the right to all commercial establish
ments to be open, an I to all meahanwal es
tablishments to ta open. If it is right.in the
one case, It Is right la all the cases.
But we are told that they must get money
on 8abbath nights in order to pay the deficits
of the other nights of the week. Now, in
answer to that 1 say that it t he men oannot
manage their amusements without breaking
the Lord's day they had better, all go into
bankruptcy together. We will never surren
der our Christian Sabbath forth purpose ot
helping these violators to pay their expenses.
Above nU my conildeace is in the gooi hand
of Go I that has been over our cities since
their foundation. But I call this day upon
all those who befriend Christian principle,
and those who love our political freedom,
who stand in solid phalanx in this Thermo
pvlre of our Am-rl!aa history, for I bellev
as certainly as I stand here that the triumph
or overthrow ot American institutions de
pendn upon this S:ibbath contest.1 :
Bring your voices, your pirns, your print
ing presses and your pulpits into the turd's
artillery oorpi for th defense of our holy
day. - To-day In your, families and ia your
Sabbath schools, ' recite. "Remember tbe
Sibbith day to keep it holy.". - Decree be
fore high heaven that this war on your re
ligious rights and th cradles of your chil
dren shall bring inuomlutou defeat to the
enemies ot God and the pu ilio weal, . For
those who die ia the contest battling for the
right we shall chisel the epitaph, "These are
they who cante out ot great tribulation an 1
had their robes washel ani made white in
the blood ot the I.-imb." But .for that one
who shall proye,!Ca moral cjlsis. recreant
to God and the churon that there shall be no
-Honorable epitaph. H shall not be worthy
even of a burial place in an mm tree tana,
but the appropriate interment for suuh a one
would be to carry out his remains and drop
them into tbe sti, where the lawless winds
which keep no Sabbath may gallop over the
grave ot him who lived and died a traitor to
God, the church and the free institutions of
America.. Long live the Christian Sibbath!

almost constantly used in a mislead
ing connection," said Professor Ar
thnr Dutton, of Boston. There are
doubtless hundreds of dead languages,
of which none but antiquarians have
any knowledge, but the dead lan
guages taught in our universities and .
colleges have a good deal of life left .
in them yet. The name is almost uni
versally applied to Greek, Hebrew and
Latin. A quarter of a century ago it
certainly looked an though Greek was
dying out of existence altogether,' but
since modern Greece has surprised
even its best friends by thenew life it
has taken np, the purest Greek is be
ing spoken in and around Athens. It
is quite a mistake to suggest that mod
ern Greek differs so much from that
of the former rulers of the world that
the man who knows one cannot under
stand the other. : The tendency of
modern times has been ; rather;; to
bridge over the differences, ' and the
Greek now tpoken is very pure. Not
only is Lauaf in use now among church
dignitaries and others with scarcely
any variation since the days of Yirgil
and C.-Bsar, but there are thousands of
people in Europe who use it in their
everyday life, although, of "course, it
is not at all like the language of the
Italians As to Hebrew, it has always
been maintained' in its purity, and .
cannot by any stretch! of reasoning be
regarded as a dead .language." St,
Louis Globe Democrat.'
A Thorn in His Flesh Two Decades.
Lewis C. Wolf, of Lyoni, N. Y. , re
cently removed a thorn frofa his foot
which has been imbedded in it for
twenty-two years. When a boy he
used to stand upon the railroad track
in front of an approaching train, and
when the engine was nearly upon him
jump from the track. ; ' One day he
landed upon a thorn and as he was
bare footed the thorn entered his heel
deeply and was . broken off. : He was
afraid to tell his parents. The wound
ceased to pain him after a few days,
and nothing more was thought of it,
until about a year ago," wheu he felt it
in his ankle. He did not give it much
attention until a couple of days ago,
when he became aware of . a small
bunch growing on his ankle in the
center of which was a little black spot.
This soon forced itself out a little, and
Mr. Wolf, with the aid of a knife
pulled ont the thorn, which was two
inohes long. Rochester Pot-Express.

break up a cold there's nothing so valuable

days seem dreary and long, if tbe weather is
