TliK LAME TOOK THE PREY
LAST SUNDAY'3 SERVICES IN THE
BROOKLYN TABERNACLE.
Ir. Talmage Says That In tli Army of
ChrUt Too Many Want to b Com
manders The Church Need More
Karneat Workers in the Ilanks.
Brooklyn, May 27 At the Talerna
cl this morning tho Rev. T. Do Witt Tal
mage, D. D., read tha account of the
man helpless at the Beautiful Gate of the
Templo. lie then gave out the hyum
beginning:
A cloud of witnesses around
Hold thee in full survey;
Forget the stops already trod.
And onward urge thy way.
- The subject of the eloquent doctor's
discourse wa3: "Disabled lltmterB Bring
ing Down the Most Game. " Ilia text
was from Isaiah xxxiii, 23: "The lame
take the prey." Following is the ser
mon: The utter demolition of the Assyrian
host was here predicted. Not only robust
men should go forth and gather the
epoils of conquest, but even men crippled
of arm and crippled of foot should go
out and capture much that was valuable.
Their physical disadvantages should not
hinder their great enrichment. So it has
been in the past, so it is now. so it will
be in the future. So it is in all depart
ments. Men lalor under seemingly great
disadvantages and amid the most un
favorable circumstances, yet making
grand achievements, getting great bless
ing for themselves, great blessing for the
world, great blessing for the church, and
"the lame take the prey. "
Do you know that the three great
poets of the world were totally blind?
Ilorner, Ossian, John Milton. Do you
know that Mr. Prescott, who wrote that
enchanting book, "The Conquest of Mex
ico." never saw Mexico, could not even
bco the paper on which he was writing?
A framework across the sheet, between
which, up and down, went tho pen im
mortal. Do you know that Gauibarjsio,
the sculptor, could not see the mar Lie
before him or the chisel with which he
cut it into shapes bewitching? Do you
know that Alexander Pope, whoso poems
will last as long as the English language,
was so much of an invalid that he had
to be sewed up every morning in rough
canvas in order to stand on his feet at
all?
Do you know that Stuart, the cele
brated painter, did much of his wonder
ful work under the shadow of the dun
geon, where he had been unjustly im
prisoned for debt? Do you know that
Demosthenes, by almost superhuman ex
ertion, first had to conquer the litp of his
own speech before he conquered assem
blages with his eloquence? Do you
know that Bacon struggled all through
innumerable sicknesses, and that Lord
Byron and Sir Walter Scott went limp
ing on club feet through all their life,
and that many of the great poets and
painters and orators and liistorians and
heroes of the world had something to
keep them back, and pull them down,
and impede their way, and cripple their
physical or their intellectual movement;
and yet that they pushed on and pushed
up until they reached the spoils of
worldly success, and amid the huzza of
nations and centuries, "the lame took
the prey?"
You know that a vast multitude of
these men started under the disadvantage
of ol)SCUre parentage Columbus, the son
. of the weaver. Ferguson, the astrono
mer, the son of the shepherd. America,
the prey of the one; worlds on worlds
the prey of the other. But what is true
In secular directions i3 more true in
spiritual and religious directions, and I
proceed to prove it.
There are in all communities many in
valids. They never know a well day.
They adhere to their occupations, but
they go panting along the streets with
exhaustions, and at eventime they lie
down on the lounge with achings beyond
all medicament. They have tried all pre
scriptions, they have gone through all
the cures which were proclaimed infalli
ble, and they have come now to surren
der to perpetual ailments. They consider
they are among many disadvantages;
and when they see those who are buoyant
in health pas3 by they almost envy their
robust frames and easy respiration.
But I liave noticed among that invalid
class those who have the greatest knowl
edge of the Eible, who are in nearest
intimacy with Jesus Christ, who have
tho most glowing experiences of the
truth, who have had the most remarkable
answers to prayer, and who have inst
exhilarant anticipations of heaven. The
temptations which weary us who are in
robust health they have conquered. They
have divided among them the spoils of
the conquest. Many who are alert and
athletic and 6warthy loiter in tho way.
These are the lame that take the pre'.
Robert Hall an invalid, Edward Payson
on invalid, Richard Baxter an invalid,
Samuel Rutherford an invalid. This
morning, when you want to call to mind
those who are most Christlike, you think
cf some darkened room in your father's
house from which there went forth on
influence potent for eternity.
A step farther: Through raised letters
the art of printing ha3 been brought to
the attention of the blind.
You take up the Bible for the blind,
and you close your eyes, and you run
your fingers over the raised letters, and
3cu say: "Why, I never could get any
information in this way. What a slow,
lumbroua way of reading! God help the
blind."
And yet I findamong that class of per
sons among the blind, the deaf and the
dumb the most thorough acquaintance
with God's word. Shut out from all
other sources of Information, no sooner
does their hand touch the raised letter
than they gather a prayer. Without eyes,
they look off upon tho kingdom of God's
love. Without hearing they catch the
minstrelsy of the skies. Dumb, yet with
pencil, or with irradiated countenance,
they declare the glory of God. .
A lare audience assembled in New
York atthe anniversary of the Deaf and
Dumb asylum, and one of the visitors
with chalk on the blackboard wrote this
question to the pupils: "Do you not find
it very hard to be deaf and dumb?' And
one of the pupils took the chalk and
wrote on the blackboard this eubluno
sentence in answer: "When the song of
ihe angels shall burst upon our enrap
tured ear, wo will scarce regret that our
ears were never marred with earthly
sounds." Oh I the brightest eyes in
heaven will bo those that never 6aw on
ear tlu Tho ears most alert In heaven
will 1 thoso that in this world heard
neither voice of friend, nor thrum of
harp, nor carol of bird, nor doxology of
congregations.
A lad who had been blind from in
fancy was cured. The oculist operated
upon tho lad, and then put a very heavy
bandage over the eyes, and after a few
weeks had gone by, the bandage was re
moved, and tho mother said to her child:
"Willie, can you see?" He said: "Oh I
mamma, is this heaven?" The contrast
!otwecn the darkness before and the
brightness afterward was overwhelming.
And I tell you tho glories of heaven will
be a thousandfold brighter for those who
never 6aw anything on earth. While
many with good vision closed their eyes
in night, and many who had a good,
artistic and cultured ear went down into
discord, these afflicted ones cried unto
the Lord in their trouble, and he made
their sorrows their advantage, and so
"tho lame took the prey."
In the Seventh century there was a
legend of St. Modobert, It was said that
his mother was blind, and one day while
looking at his mother he felt so sympa
thetic for her blindness that he rushed
forward and kissed her blind eyes, and,
tho legend says, her vision came im
mediately. That was only a legend, but
it is a truth, a glorious truth, that a kiss
of God's eternal love has brought to
many a blind eye eternal illumination.
A step further: There aro those in all
communities who toil mightily for a live
lihood. They have scant wages. Per
haps they aro diseased, or have physical
infirmities, so they aro hindered from
doing a continuous day's work. A city
missionary finds them up the dark alley,
with no fire, with thin clothing, with
very coarse bread. They never ride in
the street cars; they cannot afford the
live cents. They never see any pictures
save those in the show window on the
street, from which they aro often jostled,
ancttooked at by 6ome one who seems to
savin the look: "Move on! what are
you doing hero looking at pictures?"
Yet many of them live on mountains
cf transfiguration. At their rough table
he who fed the five thousand breaks the
bread. They talk often of the good
times that are coming. This world has
no charm for them, but heaven entrances
their spirit. They often divide their
scant crust with some forlorn wretch
who knocks at their door at night, and
on the blast of the night wind, as the
door opens to let them in, is heard the
voice of him who said: "I was hunjrrv
and ye fed mo." No cohort of heaven
will bo too bright to transport them. By
God's help they have vanquished the
Assyrian host. They have divided
among them tho spoils. Lame, lame,
yet they took the prey.
I was riding along the country road
one day, and I saw a man on crutches.
I overtook him. He was very old. He
was going very slowly. At that rate it
would have taken him two hours to go a
mile. I said: "Wouldn't vou like to
ride?" He said: "Thank you, I would.
God bless you." When he sat beside me
he 6aid: "You seo I am very lame and
very -old, but the Lord has been a good
Lord to me. 1 have bimed all my chil
dren. The Lord gave them and the Lord
had a right to take them away. Blessed
be his name. I was very sick and I had
no money and my neighbors came in
and took care of me and I wanted noth
ing. I suffer a great deal with pain, but
then I have so many mercies left. The
Lord has been a good Lord to me. " And
before we had got far I was in douht
whether I was giving him a ride or he
was giving me a ridel He said: "Now,
if you please, I"J get out here. Jurt
help me down on my crutches, jf you
please. God bless you. Thank you, sir.
Good morning. Good morning. You
have been feet to the lame, sir, yon have.
Good morning." Swarthy men had gone
tho road that day. I do not know where
they came out, but every hobble of that
old man was toward the shining pate.
With his old crutch he had struck down
many a Sennacherib of temptation which
has mastered you and me. Lame, so
fearfully lame, so awfully lame; but he
took the prey.
A step further: There are in all com
munities many orphans. During our
last war and in the years immediately
following, how many children wo heard
say: "Oh! my father was killed in the
war." Have you ever noticed I fear
you have not how well those children
have turned out? Starting under the
greatest disad vantage, no orphan asylum
could do for them what their father
would have done had he lived. The
skirmisher sat one night, by the light of
fagots, in the swamp, writing a letter
home, when a sharpshooter's bullet ended
the letter which was never folded, never
posted and never read.
Those children came up under great
disadvantage. No father to fight their
way for them. Perhaps there was in the
old family Bible an old yellow letter
pasted fast, which t-jid the story of that
father's long march, and how he suffered
in the hospital; but they looked still fur
ther on in the Bible, and they came to
the story of how God is the father of the
fatherless, and the widow's portion, and
they soon took their father's place in that
household. They battled the way for
their mother. They came on up. and
many cf them have in tho years since
the war taken positions in church and
state. While many of those who suiiored
nothing during those times have had sons
go out into lives of indolence and vaga
bondage, these who started under so
many disadvantages because they were
so early bereft, these are the lame who
took the prey.
A step further: There are thoso who
would like to do good. They say: ''Oh I
if 1 only had wealth, or, if I had elo
quence, or if I had high social position,
how much I would accomplish for God
and the church I'' I stand hero today to
tell you that you have great opportuni
ties for usefulness.
Who built the Pyramids? The king
who ordered them built? No; the plain
workmen who added stone after stone
and stone after stone. Who built the
dikes of Holland? The government that
ordered the enterprise? No; the plain
workmen who carried the earth and
rung their trowel on the walk Who are
those who have built these vast cities?
The capitalists? No; the carpenters, the
masons, the plumbers, the plasterers, the
tinners, the roofers, dependent on a day's
wages for a livelihood. And so in the
great work of assuaging human suffer
ing and enlightening human ignorance
and halting human iniquity. In lliat
great work, tho chief part is to lie done
by ordinary men, with ordinary Bjx'ech,
in an ordinary manner, and by ordinary
means. The trouble is that in the army
of Christ we all want to le captains and
colonels and brigadier generals. We are
not willing to march with the rank and
file and to do duty with the private sol
dier. We want to belong to tho reserve
corps, and read about the battle while
warming ourselves at the carnpfires, or
on furlough at home, our feet upon an
ottoman, we sagging back into an arm
chair.
As you go down the street you see an
excavation, and four or five men are
working, and perhaps twenty or thirty
leaning on the rail and looking over at
them. That is tho way it is in the
church of God today: where you find
one Christian hard at work, there are
fifty men watching the job.
Oh! my friends, w hy do you not go tc
work and preach this Gospel? You say:
"I have no pulpit." You have. It may
be the carpenter's lench, it may be the
mason's walL The robe in which you
are to proclaim this Gospel may be a
shoemaker's apron. But woo unto you
if you preach not this Gospel somewhere,
somehow I If this world is ever brought
to Christ, it will be through the unaniin
ous and long continued efforts of men
who, waiting for no special endowment,
consecrate to God what they have.
Among the most useless peoplo in the
world are men with ten talents, while
many a one with only two talents, or no
talent at all, is doing a great work, and
so "the lame take the prey."
There are thousands of ministers of
whom you have never heard in log
cabins at the west, in mission chapels at
the cast who are waning against the
legions of darkness, successfully warring
Tract distributors, month by month un
dermining tho citadels of sin You do
not know their going or their coming;
hut tho footfalls of their mini-try me
heard in the palaces of heaven Who
are tho workers in our Sabbath schools
throughout this land today? Men cele
brated, men brilliant, men of vast es
tate? For the most part, not that at all.
I have noticed that the chief characteris
tics of the most of those who are success
ful in the work is that they know their
Bibles, are earnest in prayer, are anxious
for the salvation of the young, and Sab
bath by Sabbath are willing to sit down
unobserved and tell of Christ and the
resurrection. These are the humble
workers who are recruiting the great
army of Christian youth not by might.
not by power, not by profound argument,
not by brilliant antithesis, but by the
blessing of God on plain talk, and humble
story, and silent tear, and anxious look.
"The lame take the prey."
Oh! this work of saving the youth of
our country how few appreciate what
it is! This generation tramping onto the
grave we will soon all be gone. What
next?
An engineer on a locomotive going
across the western prairies day after day,
saw a little child come out in front of a
cabin and wave to him; 60 he got in the
habit of waving back to the little child,
and it was the day's joy to him to see
this little one come out in front of the
cabin door and
answered back.
wave to him, while he
One day the train was belated and it
came on to the dusk of the evening. As
the engineer stood at his post ho saw by
tho headlight that fittle girl on the track,
wondering why the train did not come,
looking for the train, knowing nothing
of its peril. A great horror seized upon
the engineer. He reversed the engine.
He gave it in charge of tho other man on
board, and then he climbed over the en
gine, and he came down on the cow
catcher. Hp said, though he had re
versed the engine, i eccmed as though
it were going at lightning spesd, faster
and faster, though it was really slowing
up, and with almost supernatural clutch
he caught that child by the hair and
lifted it up, and when the train stopped
and the passengers gathered around to
see what was tho matter, there the old
engineer lay, fainted dead away, the
little child alive and in his swarthy
arms.
"Oh!" you say, "that was well done."
But I want you to exercise 6ome kind
ness and some apprepjatipn toward those
in the community who are snatching the
little ones from under the wheels of
temptation and sin snatching them f rom
under thundering rail trains of eternal
disaster, bringing them up into respecta
bility in this world and into glory for the
world to come. You appreciate what
the engineer did; why can you not ap
preciate the grander work done by every
Sabbath school teacher this afternoon?
Oh! my friends, I want to impress
upon myself and upon yourselves that it
is not the number of talents we possess,
but the use we make of them.
God has a royal family in the world.
Now, if I should ask: "Who are the
royal families of history?" you would
say: "House of Hapeburg, house of
Stuarts, house of Bourbons. " They lived
in palaces and had great equipage. But
who are the Lord's royal family? Some
of them mav serve you in the household.
some of them are in unlimited frarrets.
some of them will walk thi3 afternoon
down the street, on their arm a basket of
broken food; some of them are in the
almshouse, despised and rejected of men.
yet in the List great day, while it will be
found that some of us who fared sumpt
uously every dav are hurled back into
discomfiture, there are the lame that will
take the prey.
One step further: There are a great
many people discouraged about getting
to heaven. You are brought up in good
families, you had Christian parentage;
but they frankly tell mo that you are a
thousand miles away from the right
track.
My brother, you are the one I want to
preach to this morning. 1 have been
looking for you. I will tell you how you
got astray. it was not maliciousness on
your part. It was perhaps through the
geniality and sociality of your nature
that you fell into 6in. You wandered
away from your duty, you unconsciously
left the house of God; you admit the
Gospel to be true, and yet you have go
grievously and so prolongedly wandered,
you say rescu3 is impossiblo.
It would take a week to count up the
names of those in heaven who were on
oarth worse than you tell nie you are
They went the whole round of Iniquity,
they disgraced themselves, they disgraced
their household, they despaired of return
because their reputation was gone, their
projxrty was gone, everything was gone;
hut.in somo hour like this heard tho voice
of God, and threw themselves on the
divine compassion, and they rose up more
than conquerors. And I tell you there
is U' same chance for you. That is one
reason why I like to preach this Gospel,
so free a Gospel, so tremendous a Gospel.
It takes a man all wrong, and makes him
all right.
In a former settlement where I
preached, a member of my congregation
quit the house of God. quit respectable
circles, went into all styles of sin. and
was slain of his iniquity. The day for his
burial came, and his hotly was brought
to the house of God. Some of his com
rade3 who had destroyed him were over
heard along tho street, on tho way to the
burial, saying: "Come, let us go and
hear Talinago damn this old sinner 1"
Oh I I had nothing but tears for the
dead, and I had nothing but invitations
for the living. You see I could
not do any otherwise. "Christ Jesus
came to seek and 6ave that which
was lost." Christ in his dying prayer
said: "Father, forgive them," and that
was a prayer for you and for mo. Oh!
start on tho road to heaven today. You
are not happy. Tho thirst of your soul
will never be slaked Sy the fountains of
sin. You turn everywhere but to God
for heli Right where you are, call on
him. He knows you, he knows all about
you, he knows all the odds against which
you have been contending in life. Do
not go to him with a long rigmarole of a
prayer, but just look up and say: "Help!
Help!"
But you say: "My hand trembles so
from my dissipations I can't even take
hold of a hymn book to sing." Do not
worry about that, my brother; I will
Rive out a hymn at the close so familiar
you can sing it without a book. But you
say: "I have 6uch terrible habits on me
I can't get rid of them." My answer is:
Almighty grace can break up that habit,
and will brta'i it up. But you say: "The
wrong I did was to ono dead and in
heaven how. and I can't correct that
wronjr." You can correct it. liv the
gi ace of God, go into the presence of that
one, and the ajo!ogies you ought to have
made on earth make in heaven.
"Oh I" says some man, "if I should
try to do right, if I should turn away
from my evil doing unto the Lord, I
would be jostled, I would be driven
back; nobody would have any sympathy
forme." You are mistaken. Here, in
the presence of the church on earth and
in heaven, I give you today the right
hand of Christian fellowship. God sent
me here today to preach this, and he
sent you here to hear this: "Let the
wicked forsake his way, and the
unrighteous man his thought, and
let him return unto the Lord, who
will have mercy, and unto our
God. who will abundantly pardon."
Though you may have been the worst
sinner, you may become the best saint,
and in the great day of judgment it will
he found that "where sin alounded,
grace doe3 much more abound," and
while the spoils of an everlasting king
dom are being awarded for your pursuit,
it will be found that the lame took the
prey. Blessed be God that we are, this
Sabbath, oii3 week uearer the oblitera
tion of all the inequalities of this life and
all its disquietudes.
Years ago, on a boat on tho North
river, the pdot gave a very sharp ring to
the bell for the boat to slow up. The
engineer attended to the machinery, and
then he came up with some alarm on
deck to seo what was the matter. He
saw it was a moonlight night and there
were no obstacles in the way. He went
to the pilot and 6aid: "Wrhy did you
ring tho bell in that way? Why do
you want to stop? there's nothing
the matter." And the pilot said to
him: "There is a mist gathering
on the river; don't you see that? and
there is m'srht Vaiherir.er darker nnd
darker, and I can't see the way." Then
the engineer, looking around and seeing
it was a bright moonlight, looked into the
faco of the pilot and saw that he was
dying, and then that he was dead.
God grant that when our last moment
comes we may be found at our post
doins our whole duutv: and when the
mists of the river of death gather on our
eyelids, may the good Pilot take the wheel
Trom our hands and guide us into the
calm harbor of eternal rest!

Diphtheria Carried by Turkoys.
Dr. Paulinia reports a most interesting
epidemic of diphtheria which occurred
in Skiatos, one of tho Grecian isles, m
the year 1S3-L The population of this
islanel at tha time was about four thou
sand. Dr. Bild, an old practitioner, 53
the authority for the statement that for
thirty year3 no case of diphthexia had
been known on tho island. In June a
cluld aged 13 yeara was attacked with
diphtheria and died. Seven other casss
occurred in the immediate neighborhood ;
five of these died. The disease extended,
until, within a period of five montha, 100
persons were attacked, of which number
oO died. Three weeks before the sick
ness of the first child, a flock of turkeys
arrived from Salonica. Two of these
were sick on arrival, and each of the
others were subsequently attacked.
Dr. Paulinis found in the throat3 of
the sick ones patches of false membrane.
I The glands of the neck were swollen, and
in one bird the disease had extended to
the larynx, making it hoarse. One of the
turkeys, after recovery, had paralysis of
the legs, and was unable to walk. Al
though there had been no immediate
contact between the sick birds and the
first child attacked, still the distance be
tween them was slight, and a wind had
been for some time blowing in a direo- I
tion favorable to the transportation of the j
disease. Dr. Paulinis believed that the i
disease was contracted from the turkevs, i
it3 germs being carried by the currents of
air. BuiletHT Medical.
