It Is tho thunder of other people's jwpularlty

bankruptcies nnd crime nnd woo ot tho

It was autedlluvlnn ns much ns it is post

ofUioflrstlioy that wns over born, and wild
to hlmt "Now, Cain, when Abol Is looking
tho other way crush in his skull, foriilssneri
flee has lieen accepted nnd yours rejected."
And Cnlu picked up tho stick ns though just
to wnlk with It, and while Abel was hutch
ing Bomo bird in tho trco top, or gnznig nt
soino waterfall, down rnmo tho blow ot tho
first assassination, which has hud Us echo in
all tho fratricides, matricides, uxoricldoH,
homicides, Infanticide and regicides of nil
age nnd nil nations. Till Mission of Jealousy
so disturbed Unllgul nt tho prominence ot
nomo ot the men ot his tlmo that ho cut n
much admired curl from tho brow of Clncln
natus, nnd took tho embroidered collar from
tbo neck of Tonpiatus, mul had rtolomncus
killed bccmiso of his purplo robo, which nt
trnctcd too much uttontlon. Alter Columbus
had placed America ns a gom in tho .Spanish
crown, jealousy tot on tho UpauUh cour
Horn to depreclnto his achievement, nnd
aroused nulmosltlos till tho great dlsvoveror
had his heart broken. Urged on by this ImuI
passion, Dlouyslus llnyeil l'lnto Ixjcuuho ho
was wlMr than hiuiMilf, nnd l'hiloxeulus bo
cnuso Ids tnusto -was too popular. Jiidousy

Jealousy mudo the troublo liotwivn Jacob
and Esau. That hurled Jowph into tho pit.
That struck tho twotity-tlireo futnl wouiuH
into Julius Cajsar. Tlmt banished Arlstlden.
That fired Antony against Cicero. Tiberius
exiled an nrchttoct Ux:auso ot tho famo ho
got for a beautiful porch, and slow n poet for
his lino tragedy. That wt Haul inn rngo
ngalust David. How graphically tho Dlblo
puts it whon it Riys: "Saul oyed David." It
aeoms to take poeuosnion of both eye nnd
inako them IUikIi and burn like two ort
holes of holL "Saul eyed David." That is
ho looked nt htm as much as to iay: "You
HtUo upstart, how daro you attempt anything
great I I will grind you under my heel. I
will cxtcnnluato you, I will, you inUernblo
, Itmnuncnlus. Crouch, crawl, slink into that
J at nolo. I will teach thoto women to King
tomo other song, instead of "Saul has slain
his thousands but David Ids tens ot thou

tho Q rent was forgetting him and putting his
literary admiration on Uncaulartl d'Arunud,
tbo old iulldel leaped ont of his bed nnd
danced the floor in a maniacal rngo, nnd
ordered his swiftest horsea hooked up to carry
him to tho lrussian (nlaco.
That desplcdbla lwlon ot Jealousy lod
Napoleon tho Flmt to leavo in his will a bo
quest ot 5,000 francs to tho rulllan who shot
nfc Wellington when tho victor nt Waterloo
was iasslng through Paris. That stationed
the grouty older brother nt tho tack door of
tho homestead when the prodigal con re
turned, and throw n chill on the family re
union whllo that cldor brother complained,
6ayiug; "Who over heard of giving roast
veal to nucha protllgntol" Ay, that passion
roso up and under tho darkekt cloud that
ever shadowed the enrth nnd amid tho loud
est thunder that over shook tho mountains,
and nmld tlio wildest flash ot lightning that
over luTndcd or stunned the nations, hung up
on two pieces ot rough lumber buck of Jeru
salem tho kindest, purest, lovinu&t nature
that heaven could delegate, and stopped not
until there was no power left in hammer or
bramble or javelin to hurt tho dead son of
God.
That passion of jealousy, livid, hungry,
nnlmlked, rages on, and it now pierces tho
earth like a llery diameter nnd encircles it
llko a flcry circumference. It want both
hemispheres. It wants tho heavens. It
would, it it could, capture tho palaco ot Clod,
nnd dethrone Jehovah, und chain tho Al
mighty in eternal exile, and after tho demo
lition of tho unlvcrso would cryi "Satisfied
at lost, hero I ami Alone, tho undisputed
and everlasting I, Me, Mino, Myself." That
passion kocps ull J'urojw perturbed. Nations
jealous of Germany, of uglund, of Russia,
and thaw jealous of each other, and all ot
thorn joalous of America.
In our land this jwualon of jealousy kocps
all tho political world aboil. There aro at
least C00 people who are jealous of Governor
Hill, und would llko to bo his successor;
about 5,000 who nro joalous of G rover Cleve
land, nnd would like to relieve him ot tbo
tcrvn of oflico, and after tho uomtn
tlons of next summer havo lieen mads
a whole wndomonlum of defamation,

It you think that nil this discussion In publlo
places In from any dcdlro ot (ho elf aro of
thoihvir Hoilo nnd not for political clfect,
you nro grievously mistaken.
(to Into nil occuiutloii nnd professions,
nnd If you iwmt to know how much Jeal

bulldor what they think of each other'
housti, nnd mcrchnnta lint thuir opinion is

tho sntuo street, nnd nsk dix-toi what they
think of doctors, nnd lawyer what thoy
think of lawyer, nnd minister whnt they
think of ministers, and artist what thoy
think of artist. As long m men and
women In nuy department keep down nnd
have, n hard struggle thny will ho faintly
praised, nnd tlm remark nil) bo: "Oh,
yes; ho is a good, clover sort of n fellow."
"Hh fs rather, ye, somewhat, quite well,
I may pay, tolerably ulco kind ot a woman,"
Hut lothlui nrhcr getalittlo loo high, und
o(T gor- thq nsplrlnif head by social or com
mercial decapitation,
Hememlier Hint envy dwells nioro on
small dellelt ot character than on great
forces, iiiuko more ot tho fact that Doinlt
Jnu nmuvMl himself by trnusllxlng llle with
hi penknife than of his great coninusU; of
tho fact Hint Handel was n glutton than of
tlio fact Hint ho created lmerlshnhlo orato
rios: tuoro of Colvrldso's. opium habit than
of his writing "Chrlstabcl" nnd "Tho Ancient
Mariner;" morn ot tho fact that Addison
drank too much than of tho fact Hint ho wns
tho author of tho "Siicctntor;" moro of n
man's peccadilloes than of his mighty ener
gies) moro ot hi detents than ot his victories.
Look nt tho sacred and heaven descended
scleuco ot healing, nnd then soo Dr. Macken
zie, the Kngllsh surgeon, who prolonged tho
life of tho crown priuco ot Germany until ho
boenmo emperor, nnd, I hope, may yet euro
htm, so that ho may for ninny year govern
that inngulllccnt German nation, than which
there is no grander. Yit so great nro tho
medical jealousies that Dr. Mackenzie dnro
not walk tho street ot llerllu. Ho I under
military guard. Tho medical student ot
Germany can hardly keep their hand olf ot
him. Tho old doctor ot Germany nro writh
ing with indignation. Tho fact I Hint In
saving Frederick's llfo Dr. Mackenzie saved
tho iivaco of Kuroixi. There was not nn In
telligent man on cither sldo tho ocean that
did not fear for tlm result If tho throuo jNiwied
from wlso nnd good old Kmiieror William to
his incxcricnccd grandson. Hut when, un
der tho medical treatment ot Dr. Mackenzie,
tho Crown l'rlnco Frederick took tho throno,
nwnvoof satisfaction and ronlldeuco rolled
over Christendom. What shall tho world do
with the doctor who saved his Hfoi "Oh,"
cried out tho medical jealousies of Kuropo,
"destroy him, of course, destroy him."
What a brutal rceno of jealousy wo had in
this country when 1'ivsldont Gnrlleld lay dy
ing. Thero noro faithful physicians that
sacrificed their other practices and sucrlllccd
their health for all tlmo In fidelity to that
deuthlxsl. Drs. Ullsj and Hamilton and Ag
now went through anxlctle and toll and
fatigue such as uono but God could appre
ciate. Nothing pleased many of tho medical
profession. Tho doctors in chnrgo did noth
ing right. Wo who did not sea tho case know
better than thovi who agonized over it in tlm
sick room for ninny week. I, whouoverhnd
nnythtng worse than a run-round on my
thumb, which seemed to mo nt tho tlmo wai
worthy nil thonttvutlonot thoentiro uicdlcil
fraternity, had my own idea ns to how tho
president ought to bn treated. And in pro
jxirtlou n physicians nnd Inyiuen worn Iguor
nnt of tho wiso they were sure tho treatment
practiced was u mistake. And when In jxwt
mortem tho bullet dropxxl out of n dilTcrout
lrt of tho body from that In which it was
supposed to hnvo lieen lodged, about 1SX),000
jxxiplo shouted: "I told you so." "Thero, I
know It nil tho time." Tliero nro soino doc
tors In nil cities who would rather havo tho
patient dlo under tho treatment of their own
schools than havo them get well under somu
other pnthy.
Yen; look at tho clerical profession. I nm
sorry to ny that in matters of Jealousy it is
no botUr than other professions. Thero nro
now iuall denominations n great many young
clergymen who havo a faculty for superior
usefulness. Hut they nro kept down and kept
back and crippled by older ministers who
look nskaura nt those rising evangelists.
They aro snublicd. They nro jostled. Thoy
nro patronizingly ndvised. It I suggested
to tliem that thoy had tiettcr know their
place. If hero and tliero ono with more nervo
and brain nnd consecration nnd divino force
go past tho seniors who want to keep tho chief
places, tho young nro ndvlscd in tho words of
Scripture: "TurryntJerichotilltholrliennU
nro grown." Thoy nro chnrged with sensa
tionalism. They are compared to rockoUthat
go up In n blaze nnd como down sticks, and
tho brevity of tholr enreor is jubilantly proph
esied. It It bo n denomination with bishops,
n bishop Is implored to sit down heavily on
tho man who will not lw molded ; or If
a denomination without bishops, some of tho
older men with nothing moro than tholr own
natural heaviness and theological nvoirdu
poU aro ndvised to tlattou out tho innovator.
In conferences nnd presbyterlo and associa
tions and conventions thero is often seen tho
most damnable Jealousies. Such ecclesias
tical tyrants would not admit that jealousy
liad any xxseslon of them, and they tnko
on a heavenly nlr, nnd talk sweet oil and
sugar plums and balm of a thousand flowers,
and roll up tholr eyes with an nlr of unctuous
nnnctity when thoy simply moan tho destruc
tion of thoio over whom thoy pray and
snufllo. Thero aro case whuro ministers of
religion nro derelict nnd criminal, und thoy
must bo put out.
Hut In tho majority of case that I hnvo
witnessed in ecclesiastical trials thero is n
jealous attempt to keep men from surpassing
their theological fellows, nnd ns nt tho presi
dential elections in country place tho (icoplc
havo a barbecue which is a roasted ox,
round which tho people ilanco with knives,
cutting olf n sllco hero, nnd pulling out a rib
there, and sawing a beefsteak yonder, nnd
having n high tlmo 60 most of tho denomi
nations of Christians keep on hand a barbe
cue In which soino minister is roasted, while
tho church court danco around with their
sharp kni yes ot attack, and ono take nn oar,
another n hand, another a foot, and it I
hard to tell whether tho occlesiiutlcal plain
Hit of this world or tho demons ot tbo
nether world most enjoy it. Albert Dnrnrs,
than whom no man has accomplished moro
good In the last 1,000 years, was decreed to
sit uilcnt for u year ia tho pow ot hi own
ihurch whllo soino ono olso occupied his pul
pit, tho pretended ofTensc Hint ho did not
liellavolnn limited atonement, but tho real
oirenso tho fnct Hint ll tho men who tried
him put together would not opial ono Albert
Haines.
Yen, nmld nil professions nnd businesses:
and (M-cnpatlons nnd trade, nnd nmld nil
circles, iiculs to lm hoard whnt God nny
In legnnt to envy nnd Jealousy, wliih,
though not exactly the sumo, nrn twins:
"Unvy is the rottenness of the Ikiiio."
"Whom envy and strife Is, tliero is confusion
nnd ovcry evil work." "Jealousy is tho rngo
of a man." My hearers, If this ovll passion
is In nny of your souN, cry mightily unto
(l(sl Tor It expulsion. I lint which hiisilowucd
king and emiieror und nxsHc and ro-
formers ami minister of religion nnd thou-
sands of good men nnd women, Is too mighty
for you to contend ngninst unaided. The evil
has so many root, of such inlliilto convolu
tion, Hint nothing but the enginery of omulH
toucoenn pull It out. Tradition says Hint
when Moses llftiil up his Imnd to pray it was '
nil encrusted with manna, and no nooncr do
you prny than you nro IipIjmhI. Away with
tho accursed, stenchful, blackening, damning '
crlmo of Jealousy. Allow It to stay nnd It
will cat up and curry olf all tho religion Jim
can pack Into your soul for the next half
century. It will do you more harm than it
doe nny ono It lends you to Assail. It will
delude you with tho Idea that yurt Win build
yourself up by pulling soniylxuly tI.ho down.
You will mnku moro out ot tin) success ot
other than out of their misfortune. Hpenk
well of everybody. Utah iromnit in tho back.
Hon honey Ins rather HiMi n spider; Ito n I
dovn rather than n buznrd. (
Surely this world Is largo enough for you
anil all your rival. God has given you n
work to do. Go ahead and do It. Mlild
your on u buiiues. In nil circle, in nil busi
nesses, in nil professions thero 1 room for
straightforward "successes. Jealousy enter-
tallied will not only Ix-dwarf your soul but
It will flatten your skull, lienienii your eye, '
put pluchctlncss of look about your nostril, '
give u bad curl to tlm lip, und nx'iol from '
your fnco tho divino imngo in which you
were created. When you hear n man or wo- '
limn abused, drive in on tho defendant' side.
Watch for excellence in other rather than
than for defect, morning glorlw instead of ,
nlgulshndo. If soino ono is moro licnutlful
than you, thank God that you hnvo not so .
munyiierils of vanity to contend with. It!
somoouo has moro wealth than you, tlinllk '
God that you havo not so great stownrdshlp I
to answer for. It soma ono Is higher up in '
social jKtsltlou, thank God that those who '
nro down need not fenrn fall. If somo one I
gets higher ollleo in church or state than '
you, thank ikxi there nro not so mnny to
wish for tho hastening on of your ohscmilcx.
Tho I) llko of Dnutzlg, in luxurious npart
meuUi, wns visited by n plain friend, nnd to
keep his friend from jealousy the duko said:
"You can havo nil I havo If you will stand
twenty iacos olT and let mo shoot nt you a
hundred times." "No, no," said his friend.
"Well," said tho duko, "to gain nil my
honors I faced on tho Iwittlo field moro than
a thousand gunshots llred not moro than ten

A minister of small congregation com

Substltuto for Jenlousy nn clovntlng emula
tion. Seeing other good, lot us try to bo
better. Seeing others Industrious, let us
work moro hour. Seeing other benevolent,
let us rraolvo on giving larger crceutago of
our means for charity. May God put con
gratulations for others into our right hand
and cheer on our lips for those win to bravo
and useful thing. Life Is short at
tho longest; let It nil bo filled up
with helpfulness for others, work
und yninthy for each other' mlsfort

to cover up tho mistake nnd failure of
othor. If mi ovll rciort about somo ono
como to us, let us put on It most favorable
construction, ns tho Khonn enters I,nko Lcmnu

so much on tho transitory dilfereuce ot this
world, for soon It will inako no difference to
us whether wo hnd $10,000,000 or ten cents,
and tho asheo Into which tho tonguo ot

If you nro assailed by jealousy mnko no nn
swer. Take it ns a compliment, for people
nro never jealous of a failure. Until your
work Is done you aro invulnerable. Hemem
lier how our 1ird behaved under such oxa
jierntions. Did they not try to catch him in
his word! Did they not call him tbo victim
ot intoxicnutst Did they not misinterpret
him from tho winter of thoyenr, to tho spring
of tho year SKI; that is, from hlsllrst infnntllo
cry to tho lust groan of his assassination I
Yet ho nnswered not n wonl! Hut so far
from demolishing either his mission or hi
good name, after near nineteen ccuttiric he
outranks everything under tho skies, nnd is
second to nononbovo them nnd tho archangel
makes salnam at his footstool. Christ
bloody antagonist thought thoy had finished
him when they wrote over tho cross his ac
cusation In three languages, Hebrew nnd
Greek nnd Intin, uoti-ealizing tlmt they were

since Hebrow Is tho holiest language, nnd
Greek tho wisest of tongues, nnd Latin tho

You nro not tho first mnn who hnd his

Tho world has the hubit of making a great
