Herbert Oxlej, a 'Norristown young
man, has a talking crow which is a
very remarkable bird, indeed. He
plucked the creature in its infancy
from a plumb tree overhanging the
Perkiomen, and for over a year he
has spent two or three pleasant hours
every evening in educating it. The
row can swear in the following'
languages: Italian German, Span

star feat is performed on a small up

the pole and balances itself there on
its beak as an acrobat would balance
himself on his head. Then it begins
to fan the air with its wings and to re
volve slowly. The beak bites deep
Into the wood, the wings whir faster,
and soon the inverted crow is twirl
ing round and round with the rapidity
of a whirling Dervish. It keeps this
up until exhausted, when it falls off

DR. TALMAGE'S SERMON.
SUNDAY'S DISCOURSE BY" THE NOTED
DIVINE.
Subject: The Gospel's TriumphVictories
of the Christian ilellglon Depicted
Transformations Wrought by Christ's
Teachings Drunkards Reclaimed
. Oopjrlght, Louis Klopsch, 1899.
Washington, D. C The antagonists of
'he Christian religion are in this sermon of
Dr. Talmas met in a very unusual way,
and the triumphs of the Gospel are depict
ad. The text is Ezeklel zxi., 21, "He made
his arrows bright, he consulted with Im
ages, he looked In the liver."
Two modes of divination by which the
king of Babylon proposed to find out the
will of God. He took a bundle of arrows,
put them together, mixed them up, then
Hilled forth one, and by the inscription on
It decided what city he should first as
sault. Then an animal was slain, and by
the lighter or darker color of the liver the
brighter or darker prospect of success was
inferred. That Is the meaning of the text,
"He made his arrows bright, he consulted
with Images, he looked In the liver." Stupid
delusion! And yet all the ages have been
filled with delusions. It seems as If the
world loves to be hoodwinked, the delusion
of the text only a specimen of a vast number
of deceits practiced upon the human race.
In the latter part of the last century Jo
hanna Southoote came forth pretending to
have divine power, made prophecies, had
chapels built in her honor, and 100,000 dis
ciples came forward to follow her. About
five years before the birth of Christ Apol
lontus was born, and be came forth, and
after five years being speechless, according
to the tradition, he healed the sick, and
raised the dead, and preached virtue, and,
according to the myth, having deceased,
was brought to resurrection.
The Delphic oracle deceived vast multi
tudes of people; the Pythoness seated in
the temple of Apollo uttering a crazy jar
gon from which the people guessed their
individual or national fortunes or mlsfor
fortunes. The utterances were of such a
nature that you could read them any way
you wanted to read them. '
But there are those who say that all these
delusions combined are as nothing com
pared with the delusion now abroad In the
world the delusion of the Christian relig
ion. That delusion has to-day 400,000,030
dupes. It proposes to encircle the earth
with its girdle. That which has been called
a delusion has already overshadowed the
Appalachian range on this side of the sea,
ana it has overshadowed the Balkan and
Caucasian ranges on the other side of the
sea. It has conquered England aud the
United States. This champion delusion,
this hoax, this swindle of the ages, as it
has been cabled, has gone forth to conquer
the islands of the Pacific, and Melanesia
and Micronesia and Malayan Polynesia
have already surrendered to the delusion.
Yea, It has conquered the Indian archi
pelago, and Borneo and Sumatra and Cel
ebes and Java have fallen under its wiles.
In the Fiji Islands, where there are 120,000
people, 102,000 have already become the
dupes of this Christian religion, and if
things go on as they are now going on and
if the influence of this great hallucination
of the ages cannot be stopped it will swal
low the globe. Supposing, then, that
Christianity Is the delusion of the cen
turies, as some have pronounced It, I pro
pose to show you what has been accom
plished by this chimera, this fallacy, this
hoax, this swindle of the ages.
And, in the first place, I remark that this
delusion of the Christian religion has made
wonderful transformations of human char
acter. I will go down the aisle of any
church in Christendom, and I will find on
either side that aisle those who were once
profligate, profane, unclean of speech and
unclean of action, drunken and lost. But
by the power of this delusion of the Chris
tain religion they have been completely
transformed, and now they ate kind and
amiable and loving and useful. Everybody
sees the ohange. Under the power of this
great hallucination they have quit their
former associates, and, whereas they once
found their chief delight among those who
gambled and swore and raced horses, now
they find their chief joy among those who
go to prayer meetings and churches, so
complete is the delusion. Yea, their own
families have noticed it the wife has no
ticed it, the children have noticed it. The
money that went for rum now goes for
books and for clothes and for education.
He is a new man. All who kno v him say
there has been a wonderful change.
What is the cause of this change? This
great hallucination of the Christian relig
ion. There is as much difference between
what he is now and what he once was as
between a rose and a nettle, as between a
dove and a vulture, as between day and
night. Tremendous delusion!
Admiral Farragut, one of tho most ad
mired men of the American navy, early be
came a victim of this Christian delusion,
and, seated not long before his death at
Long Branch, he was giving some friends
nn account of his early life. He said:
"My father went down in behalf of tne
United States Government to put an end
to Aaron Burr's rebellion. I was a cabin
boy and went along wl h him. I could
swear like an old salt. I could gamble in
every style of gambling. I knew all the
wickedness there was at that time
aboard. One day my father cleared every
body out of the cabin except myself and
locked the door. He said: 'David, what
are you going to do? What are you going
to be?' 'Well,' I said, 'father, I am going
to follow the sea.' 'Follow the sea and be
a poor, miserable, drunken sailor, kicked
and cuffed about the world, and die of a
fever in a foreign hospital.' 'Oh, no!' I
sold. 'Father, I will not be that; I will
tread the quarter deck and command as
you do.' 'No, David,' my father said;
'no, David, a person that has your prin
ciples and yonr bad habits will never
tread the quarter deck or command.' My
father went out and shut the door after
him, and I said then, 'I will change, I will
never swear again, I will never drink
again, I will never gamble again, and,
gentlemen, by the help of God, I have
kept those three vow3 to this time. I soon
after that became a Christian, and that
decided my fate for time and for eternity.'
Another captive of this great Christian'
delusion. There goes Baul of Tarsus on
horseback at full gallop. Where is he go
ing? To destroy Christians. He wants no
better play spell than to stand and watch
the hats and coats of the murderers who
are massacring God's children. There
goes the same man. This time he,is afoot.
Where is he going now? Going on the road
to Ostla to die for Christ. They tried to
whip it out of him, they tried to scare it
out of him. tbey thought they would give
him enough of it by putting him on small
diet, and denying h m a cloak, and con
demning him as a criminal, and howling at
him through tha streets; but they could
not freeze it out ol him. and they could not
sweat it out of him, and they could not
pound it out of him, so they tried the sur
gery of the sword, and one summer diy in
C6 he was decapitated, f Perhaps the mighti
est intellect of the 6000 years of the world's
existence hoodwinked, cheated, cajoled,
duped by the Christian religion.
All, that is the remarkable thing about
this delusion of Christianity! It overpow
ers the strongest intellects. Gather the
critics, secular and religious, of this cen
tury together and put a vote to them as to
which is the greatest book ever written,
and by large majority they will say,
"Paradise Lost." Who wrote 'Taradlse
Lost?" One of the fools who believed in
this Bible, John Milton. Benjamin Frank
lin surrendered to this delusion, if you may
judge from the letter that be wrote to
Thomas Paine begging him to destroy "The
Age of lieason" in manuscript and never
let It go into type, and writing afterward,
In his old days, "Of this Jesus of Nazareth
I have to say that the system of morals
lie lelt and the religion He Iihs given us
electric champion of liberty, enslaved by
this delusion, so that he says, "The book
worth all other books put together is the
Bible." Benjamin Itush, the leading physl
ologlst and anatomist of his day, the great
medical scientist what did he say? "Tht
only true and perfect religion is Christian
ity." Isaao Newton, the leading philoso
pher of his time what did he say
That man surrendering to this delu
sion of Christian religion, crying
out "The sublimest philosophy ot
earth Is the philosophy of the Gospel."

whose name every scientist the world ovei
uncovers his head, David Brewster saving,
"Oh, this religion has been a great light U
me, a very great light all my days!" Presi
dent Thiers, the great French statesman
acknowledging that he prayed when h
said, "I Invoke the Lord God, in whom .'

able to conquer the lion, able to conquet
the panther, able to conquer the savage,
yet oonquered by this delusion, this halluci
nation, this great swindle of the ages, sc
when tbey find him dead they find him oo

strongest intellect In England, unable tc
resist this chimera, this fallacy, this de
lusion ot the Christian religion, went tc
the bouse ot God every Sabbath and often,
at the invitation of the rector, read th
prayers to the people. It those mighty In
telleots are overborne by this delusion
what chance is there for you and for me'

thatln a weak moment he cried out, "My
belief in the Bible has saved me In my lit
erary and moral life." Rousseau, one ol
the most eloquent champions ot infidelity
spending his whole life warring against
Christianity, cries out, "Tho majesty o.
the Scriptures amazes me." Altemont.
the notorious infidel, one would think he
would have been safe against the delusion
of the Christian religion. Oh, no! -"Aftei
talking against Christianity all his days
In his last hours he cried out, "Oh, Thou
blasphemed but most indulgent Lord God
neilitseii is a refuge u it aide m.e from Taj;
frown!" Voltaire, the most talented infidel
the world ever saw, writing 250 publica
tions, ana tue most ot tnem spiteful against
Christianity, himself the most notorious
libertine of the century one would bav
thought he could have been depended
upon for steadfastness in the advocacy ol
infidelity and in the war against this terri
ble chimera, this delusion of the Gospel.
But no; in his . last hour he asks foi
Christian burial,' and nsks that they
give him the sacrament of the Lord
Jesus Christ. Why, you cannot de
pend upon these first rate infidels; you
cannot depend upon their power to resist
this great delusion of Christianity. Thomas
Paine, the god of modern skeptics, his
birthday celebrated in New York and Bos
ton with great enthusiasm Thomas Paine,
the paragon of Bible haters Thomas

William Carver, wrote in a letter which I
have at my house, saying that ho drank a

times picked out of the ditch, sometimes
too filthy to be picked out Thomas Paine,
one who would have thought that be
could have been depended on for stead
fastness against this great delusion.
But no. In bis dying hour he begs the
Lord Jesus Christ for mercy. Powerful
delusion, all conquering delusion, earth
quaking delusion ot the Christian religion.
Yea, it goes on. It is so Impertinent, and
it is so overbearing, this chimera of the
Gospel, that, having conquered the great
picture galleries of the world, the old mas
ters and the young musters, it is not satis-
fled until it has conquered the music of the
world. Look over the programme of any
magnificent musical festival and see what
ere the great performances and learn fuat
the greutcst of all the subjects are religious
subjects.
Deluded lawyers Lord Cairns, the high
est legal authority in England, the ex-ad-visor
of the throne, spending his vacation
in preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ to
the ooor people of Scotland. Frederick T.
Frellnghuysen, of New Jersey, once Secre
tary of State, an old-fashioned Evangelical
Christian, an elder in the Reformed
Church, John Bright, a deluded Quaker.
Henry Wilson, tho Vise-President of the
United States, dying a deluded Methodist
or Congregationalism Earl of Kintoro dy
ing a deluded Presbyterian.
Yes, this delusion of the Christian re
ligion shows itself in the fact that it goes
to those who are in trouble. Now, it is
bad enough to cheat a man when he is vrell
and when he is prosperous, but this re
ligion comes to a man when he is sick and
snys: "You will be well again after awhile.
You are going into a land whero there are
no coughs, and no pleurisies, and no con
sumptions, and no languishing. Take
courage and bear up." Yea, this awful
chimera of the Gospel come3 to the poor,
and it saya to them, "You are on your
way to vast estates and to dividends al
ways declarable." This delusion of Chris
tianity comes lo the bereft, and it talks of
reunion before the throne and ot the cessa
tion of all sorrow. And then, to show that
this delusion will stop at absolutely noth
ing, it goes to the dying bed and fills the
man with anticipations. How much better
it would be to have him die without any
more hope than swine and rats and snakes!
Shovel ihira under! That is all. Nothing
more left ot him. He will never know any
thing again. Shovel him under! The soul
is only a superior part of the body, and
when the body disintegrates the soul dis
integrate?. Annihilation, vacancy, ever
lasting blank, obliteration. Why not pres
ent all that beautiful doctrine to tho dying
instead ot coming with this hoax, this
swindle of the Christian religion, and fill
ing the dying mau with anticipations of
auother life until some in the lust hour
have clapped their hands, and somo have
shouted, and some have sung, and some
have been so overwrought with joy that
they could only look ecstatic? Palace
gates opening, they thought diamond
coronets flasning, hands beckoning, or
chestras sounding. Little children dying
actually believing they saw their departed
parents, so that although the little chil
dren had been so weak and feeble and sick
for weeks they could not turn on their dy
ing pillow at the last, in a paroxysm of
rapture uncontrollable they sprang to their
feet and shouted, "Mother, catch me; I
am coming."
And to show the immensity of this delu
sion, this awful swindle of the Gospel of
Jesus Christ, I open a hospital, and I bring
into that hospital the deathbeds of a groat
many Christian people, nnd I take you by
the hand, nnd I walk up and down the
wards of that hospital, and I ask a few
questions. I ask, "Dying Stephen, what
have you to suy?" "Lord, Jesus, rocetve
my spirit." "Dying John Wesley, what
havo you to say?" "The bert of all Is God is
with us." "Dying Edward Payson, what
have you to say?" "I float in a sea of
glory." "Dying John Bradford, what have
you to say?" "If there be uny way of go
ing to heaven on horseback, or in a fiery
Ciiariot, it is tul3."j
O my Lord, my God. what a dolusion,
what a glorious delusion! Submerge me
with it, fill my eyes and ears with It, put It
uuder my head for a pillow this delusion
spread it over me for a cauopy, put it un
derneath me for an outspread wing, roll it
over me in ocean surges 10,000 fathoms
deep. If jnfidelity, and if atheism, nnd if
annihilation are a realicy and the Chris
tian religion is a delusion, give me the de
lusion. Well, we will soon understand It all.

NIAGARA'S VOICES.
They Are Not Rumbling or Rapid, bat
Flancant and Silvery.
Niagara has many voices, and some
of them are thus described by Mrs.
van Rensselaer in the Century: "And
the noise of Niagara? Alarming
things have been said about it, but
they are not true. It is a great and
mighty noise, but It Is not, as Henne-.
pin thought, an 'outrageous noise.' It
la not a roar. It does not drown the
voice or stun the ears. Even at the
actual foot of the falls It is not op
pressive. It Is much less rough than
the sound of heavy surf steadier,
more homogeneous, less metallic, very
deep and strong, yet mellow and soft:
soft, I mean", in its quality. As to the
noise of the rapids, there is none more
musical. It is neither -rumbling nor
eharp. It Is clear, plangent, silvery.
It is so like the voice of a steep brook
much magnified, but not made coarser
or more harsh that,' after we have
known it, each liquid call from a for
est hillside will seem, like the odor of
grapevine, a greeting from Niagara. It
is an inspiriting, an exhilarating
sound, like freshness, coolness, vitality
Itself made audible. And yet It Is a
lulling sound. When we have looked
out upon the American rapids for
many days. It is hard to remember con
tented life amid motionless surround
ings; and so, when we have slept be
side them for many nights, It is hard
to think of happy sleep in an empty
silence. Still another kind of musiqjls
audible at Niagara. It must be list
ened for on quiet nights, but then it
will be heard. It is like the voice of an
orchestra so very far away that its
notes are attenuated to an incredible
deUcacy and are intermittently per
ceived, as though wafted upon varia
ble zephyrs. It is the most subtile, the
most mysterious music in the world.
What is its origin? Why should we
ask? Such fairy-like sounds ought not
to be explained. Their appeal is to the
imagination only. They are so faint,
so far away, that they almost escape
the ear, as the lunar bow and the fluted
tints of the American falls almost
escape the eye. And yet we need not
fear to lose them, for they are as real
as the deep bass of the cataracts."

SHEEPDOG'S INTELLIGENCE.
Interesting Experiments Performed at
tbe Trials.
Since the introduction of the sheep
dog trials in Wales and England, this
highly interesting and instructive sport
is becoming yearly more popular. On
a fine day it would indeed be difficult
to find a more interesting sight than
the highly trained shepherd's dog, or
collie, working the little flock of three
of the wildest sheep over the course in
a most wonderful manner. The friend
liness and jovial good-humor of the
owners of the dogs toward one an
other are in marked contrast to the
jealousies so often present at sporting,
meetings, added to which the fresh air,
healthy surroundings and gay throngs
go to make a thorough day's enjoy
ment. The shepherd working the dog
stands at the post, from which he is
not allowed to move more than six!
yards. At a given signal three sheep
are liberated from the pen; the shep-J
herd then sends his dog to the sheep,
which are to be driven in the direction
indicated by the arrows, and between)
the hurdles; if any of the sheep-go out
side the hurdles the dog must bring
them back and take them the proper
course, to the trianruar Den of three
hurdles, which has an opening of twen-)
ty-two inches, just wide enough to al-'
low one sheep to enter at a time; he
has then to pen them, the time allowed!
being thirteen minutes from the time!
the three sheep are first liberated. The
worker of the dog is allowed to assist,
without, however, touching the sLeepi
when the dog has brought them up to i
the pen. The shepherd work3 the dog:
almost entirely by whistling or mo
tions. Often the sheep separate at the
:ommencement; the dog has then tot
bring them together and start with his
jharge at the proper place. The com-i
petitor may be successful in driving:
his three sheep up to the pen at the
snd of the trial; he has then a most;
SifScult task, and the utmost patience'
and skill are then required, as only one
sheep can enter at a time and the other 1
two will often go outside the pen. It
is men tne cog s sagacity is shown.
He will crawl on his belly like a cat,
and quietly drive them inch by Inch
until he gets them in the opening and
the three jostled into the; pn. An
other innovation has lately been intro- i
3uced at 'Some trials. The shepherd
marks three sheep, which are driven
among a flock of about a hundred or
more. The dog has then to find the
marked sheep and bring them from
among the others, which he does,
showing wonderful sagacity and intel
ligence in doing so. In training col
lies, the young dogs are generally
taught by accompanying old dogs.
Months of patient toil are required to
fit them to compete at trials success
fully. The young dog is very wild
and apt to overrun the sheep, in which
case the shepherd often has to devise a
means to hold him in check, which he
does by tying up one of his front paws
with his pocket handkerchief around
the dog's neck, thus leaving the dog
only three legs to run on, and it is sur
prising,how soon the dog understands
it3 meaning. From the Ludgate Mag
