journey to tlio Itiml of tlio cxar, whither he
went with Mr. Louis Klopsch to direct the

for this week Is entitled "Pro-eminent,'

the overtopping figure of all time, lie la
tlio vox huniaua in all inut-io, the graceful
est lino In all sculpture, the most exquisite
mingling of lights and shades In all paint'
lug, thu acme of all climaxes, the dome of
all cathedraled grandeur and thupcrorn
tlon of nil splendid language.
Tho Greek alphabet Is mado up of
twenty-four letters, and when Christ com-
fiarcd himself to tho first letter and tho
ast letter, the alpha and the omega, he
appropriated to himself all tho splendoru
that you can spell out either with thoso
two letters and all letters between them.
"I am, thu Alpha and tho Omega, tho be
ginning and thu end, thu first and the
last." Or, If you prefer thu words of tho
text, "above all."
It means, after you have piled up all Al
pine, and Himalayan altitudes, the glory of
Christ would have to spread Its whins and
descend a thousand leagues to touch those
summits. Pel Ion, a high mountain of
Thessaly; Ossa, a high mountain, and
Olympus, a high mountain; but mythology
tells us when the giants warred against
tho gods they plied up theho three moun
tains and from the top of them proposed
to scale thu heavens; but tlio height wan
not great enough and there was a complete
failure. And after all thu plants Isaiah
and Paul, prophetic and apostolic giants;
Raphael and Michael Angclo, artistic
glnnts; cherubim and seraphim and arch
angel, celestial giants have failed to climb
to tho top of Christ's glory, they might nil
Well unite In thu words of the textaud say,
"He that cometh from above Is abovo all."
TIIK CKNTItAI. IHKMi: IN IMIKACIIINO.
First, Christ must bo abovo all eNu In
our preaching. There aro so mi ny lxokn
on homiletlcs scattered through the world
that all laymen, as well as all clergymen,
liavu made up their minds what sermons
ought to be. '1'lmt sermon Is mostclTcctunl
which mo-t pointedly puts forth Christ as
thu pardon of all sin and thu correction of
all evil, individual, social, political, na
tional. Theru Is no reason why wo should
ring tlio endless changes on a few phriutcs.
There nro thosu who think that If an ex
hortation o? a discourse havu frequent
mention of justillcatiou, sauctltlcutlnu,
covenant of works and covenant of grace,
that, therefore it must bo profoundly
evangelical, whllo ttmy nro suspicious of
a discourse which presents thu same truth,
but under different phraseology.
Now, I say theru is nothing in all the
opulent realm of Anglo-Saxonism or all
the word treasures that wo inherited from
tho Latin and thu Greek and tho Indo
European but we have a right to marshal
it in religious discussion. Christ sets the
example. Ills Illustrations weru from the
grass, thu flowers, the spittle, thu salve,
the barnyard fowl, thu crystals of salt, as,
well ns from thu seas and thu stars, and we
do not propo.se in our Sabbath school teach
ing and in our pulpit address to bo put on
tho limits.
I know that theru is a great deal said in
our day against words, as though they
were nothing. They may be misused, but
they have an imperial jiower. They are
the bridge lift ween soul and soul, between
Almighty God and the human race. What
did God write upon thu tables of stones
Words. What did Christ utter on Mount
Olivet? Words. Out of what did Christ
strike tho spark for tho illumination of the
universe? Out of words. "Let there be
light," and light was. Of coursu thought
is tho cargo nud words are only the ship,
but how fast would your cargo get on with
out thu shlpf
What you need, my friends, in all your
work, In your Sabbath school class, in
your reformatory institutions, and what
wo all need is to enlarge our vocabulary
when we come, to speak about God and
Christ and heaven. Wo ride a few old
words to death when there is such illimit
able resource. Shakespeare employed lif
ted! thousand different words for dramatic
purposes; Milton employed eight thousand
different words for poetic purposes; Hufus
Choate employed over eleven thousand dif
ferent words for legal purposes, but the
most of us have less than a thousand
words that wo can manage, less than five
hundred, and that makes' us so stupid.
ALL SWKKT W0IID3 NEEllKD.
When we come to set forth the love of
Christ wo aro going to toko thu teuderest
phraseology wherever wo find it, and if it
has never been used In that direction be
fore, all the mnru shall we use it. When
we come to sneak of the glory of Christ,
tho conqueror, we aru going to draw our

Again, I remark that Christ is above all
in dying alleviations. I havu notanysym
pnthy with thu morbidity abroad about
our demise. The emperor of Constantino
pie arranged that on the day of his corona
tlon the stonemason should como and con
sult him about his tombstone that after
awhile he would need. And there are
men who are mouoniaiilcal on thu subject
of departure from this life by death, and
the more they think of it the Ilk they arc
prepared to go. This is an uniiianllntus
not worthy of you, not worthy of inu.
TiiK m:i:o's nEATii.
SalHillli, tho greutrst conqueror of bin
day, while dying, ordered thu tunic ho had
on him to 1m carried after his death on n
spear at thu head of his army, and then tho
soldier ever and anon should stop and say:
"Heboid, all that Is left of Saladln, the em
peror and conqueror! Of all tho states ho
conquered, of all thu wealth he accumu
lated, nothing did he retain but this
fihroudl" I havu no sympathy with such
behavior, or such absurd demonstration,
or with much that wo hear uttered in re
gard to departure from this life to tho
next. There Is a commonseiisicnl Iden on
this subject that you and I need to consid
er that theru aru only two styles of departure.
X thousand feet underground, by light
nf torch tolling In n miner's shaft, a 'edgo
of rock may fall upon us and we may dlu r.
miner's death. Par out at sea, falling
from the slippery ratlines and broken on
thu halyards wo may dlu a sailor's death.
On mission of mercy In hospital, amid
hiokcu bones and reeking leprosies and
raging fuvers wu may diu a philanthro
pist's death. On the field of battle, serv
ing God and our country, thu gun carriage
may roll over us nud wu may dlo n patrioc'u
death. Hut after all there aru only two
styles of departure the death of thu right
eous and thu death of thu wicked, and wo
nil waut to diu the former.
God grant that when that hour comeo
you may bu at home! You want the hand
of your kindred in your iwnd. You want
your children tosurroutid yu. You want
the light on your juuow 'rom uyes mat,
havu long reflected your love. You want
the room still. You do not want any curi
ous strangers standing around watching
you. You waut your kindred from afnr to
hear your last prayer. I think thnt is tho
wish of all of us. Hut is that nllf Can
earthly friends hold us when thu billows of
death como up to the girdle? Can human
voice charm open heaveu'ii gate? Cau hu
man hands pilot uh through thu narrows of
death into heaven's harlwr? Can an earthly
friendship shield us from thu arrows of
death nud In thu hour when satan shall
practice upon us his Infernal archery?
No, no, no, not Alas! poor soul, if that Is
all. Hetter die in tho wilderness, far from
trcu shadow and from fountain, alone,
vultures circling through thu air waiting
will, with solemn tread, carry us to our
resting place Aye, It is known in heavun
whether our departure will bo a corona-
Hon or n banishment. Hrlghter than a
banqueting hall through which tho light
feet of the dancers go up and down to tho
sound of truniMters will Ihi thu sepuleher
through whoso rifts tho holy light of
heaven streameth. God will watch you.
, Ho will send his angels to guard your
I slumbering ground until, at Christ's bo-
best, they shall roll away tho stone.
So also Christ Is above all in heaven
The Hllilo distinctly says that Christ l
the chief theme of the celestial ascription,
all the thrones facing his throne, all tho
palms waved before his face, all thecrowiM

I Stand on some high hill of heaven, and
in all tho radiant sweep thu most glorious
object will bo Jesus. Myriads gazing on
thu scars of his suffering, in silence first,
afterward breaking forth Into acclamation.
The martyrs, all tho purer for thu flame
through which they passed, will say, "This
'is Jesus, for whom wu died." '1 he apostles,
' all the happier for tho shipwreck and tbu
I scourging through which they went, wll.
say, 'This Is the .lesus whom wu preaelied
at Corinth, and nt Cappndocla, and at An
tloch, and at Jerusalem." Little children
clad In white will say, "This Is tho Jesus
who took us in Ills arms and blessed us, ii'id
when the storms of the world were too
cold and loud brought us Into this beautiful
place." The multitudes of thu bereft will
Miy, "This Is the Jesus who comforted us
when our heart broke." Many who had
wandered clear off from God and plunged
into vagabondism, but weru saved by
grace, will say: "This Is the Jesus who
pardoned us. We were lost on tho moun
tains, and he brought us home. Wo were
guilty, and he made us white as snow.'
Mercy Isxmdless, grace unparalleled. And
then, after each one has recited his peculiar
deliverances and peculiar mercies, recited
them as by solo, nil the voices will comu
together In a great chorus, which shall
niako the arches echo and re-echo with the
eternal reverberation of gladness and peace
and triumph.
Kdward I was so anxious to go to the

today whose hearts aru already in thu holy
laud of heaven. Where your treasures
are theru are your hearts also. John Hun
yau.of whom I spoke at the opening of the
discourse, caught a glimpse of that place,
and lu his quaint way ho said; "And I
heard ill my dream, and lo! thu bells of the
city rang again for Joy; and as they opened
the gates to let in thu men I looked lu after
them, and lo! thu city shone like the sun,
and theru weru streets of gold, and' men
