If any one of our readers wishes to
see how history repeats itself, let him
take a map of the world and with a
couple of pins and tiny American and
Spanish Hags trace the course of our
fleets and that of our enemy during
the month o' May, while they played a
game of hide-and-seek, with all of the
civilized world looking on. A month
seemed to us a long time for a fleet of
nine or ten Spanish vessels to go dodg
ing over the ocean, escaping every eye.
Yet bo vast is this ocean that just ninety-three
years ago a French and Span
ish fleet of twenty -shlia contrived to
escape tbe pursuit of Nelson, the most
able of naval heroes, fur nearly seven
months. The maps snd pins and little
flags will make tuls wonderful ebons
clear to the boy student. Vllleneuve,
a French admiral, set sail in March
from Toulon, and having rallied a
squadron of Spanish vessels, beaded di
rectly for the West Indies, where a
fleet from Cadiz joled him. Lord Nel
son, meanwhile, was scouring the Med
iterranean Sea for him In vain. Hear
ing at last that Vllleneuve was In
Americsn waters. Nelson crossed tbe
Atlantic but was lured by a fabse re
port to tbe shores of tbe South Amerl-
can continent Meanwhile Vllleneuve
sailed from Martinique for France,
again eluding Nelson, who had learned
of his whereabouts, but reached tbe
West Indies only to find tbst Vlllen
euve and his fleet were gone. Tbe chase,
the combined fleets numbering more
than thirty ships, continued upon tbe
vast plain of gray water until late In
September. The fleets met at last, and
the great battle of Trafalgar was
fought. In wbch Nelson was killed; but
the supremacy of England upon tbs
seas was established.

N his sermon Sunday Dr. Talmsre
nhows what sectarianism really Is, its
origin, erils snd care. The text wss
Judges xiu : "Then said they unto him.
Say now shibboleth, and be said sibboleth,
for he could not frame to pronounce it
right Then they took him sod slew him
at the psMKam of Jordan."
Do you notice the differenre of pronoon
cialion between shibboleth snd sibboleth T
A Tery small and uniuiportaut difference,
you say, and yet that difference was the
difference between life and desth for a
great many people. The Lord's people.
Gilead snd Kphraim, got Into a great
fight, and Ephraim was worsted, and on
the retreat came to the fords of the rirer
Jordan to cross. Order was given that all
Ephraimites coming there be slain. But
how could it be found out who were Eph
raimites? They were detected by their
pronunciation. Shibboleth was a word
that stood for river. Tbe Ephraimites
had a brogue of their own, and when they
tried to say "shibboleth" always left out
the sound of the "h." When it was asked
that they say shibboleth, they said sibbo
leth, and were slain. "Then said they
nnto him, say now shibboleth, snd be said
sibboleth, for he could not frame to pro
nounce It right. Then they took him and
slew him at the passages of Jordan." A
very small difference, yu say, between
(Jilead and Ephraim, snd yet how much
Intolerance -about that small difference.

other man. just as good, prefers by gestic

ss tbe other, "Every man fully persuad

George Whitefield was going over a
Quaker rather roughly for some of hla re
ligious sentiments, snd the Quaker said:
"George, I am ss thou srt I sra for
bringing sll men to the hope of the gos
pel. Therefore, If thou will not quarrel
with me about my broad brim, I will not
quarrel with tbee about thy black gown.
George, give me thy hand."
In tracing out the religion of sectarian
ism or bigotry I find that s great deal of
it comes from wrong education in the
home circle. There are parenta who do
not think it wrong to caricature aud jeer
the peculiar forma of religion in the world
snd denounce other sect and other de
nominations. It la very often the case
that that kind of education ads just op
posite to what was expected, and the chil
dren grow up snd sfter awhile go and see
for themselves, and, looking in those
churches and finding that the people are
good there and they love God and keep
bis commandments, by natural reaction
they go and join those very churches. I
could mention the names of prominent
ministers of the gospel who sjient their
whole lives bombarding other denomina
tions and who lived to see their children
preach the gospel in those very denomina
tions. But it is often the case that bigot
ry starts in a household, and that the sub
ject of it never recovers. There are tens
of thousands of bigots 10 years old.
I think sectarianism and bigotry also
rise from too great prominence of any one
denomination in s community. All the
other denominations are wrong and his
denomination ia right because his denom
ination ia tbe most wealthy or the most
popular or the most influential, snd if la
"our" church, snd "our" religious orgnn
lzatioo, and "our" choir, snd "our" min
ister, snd the man tosses his head and
wants other denominations to know their
places. It ia a great deal beUer In any
community when tbe great denominations
of Christians are about equal in power,
marching side by side for the wu-ld's con
quest Mere outside prosperity, mere
worldly power, is no evidence that tbe
church is acceptable to God. J tetter a
barn with Christ in the manger than a
cathedral with magnificent harmonic
rolling through tbe long drawn ftile and
an angel from hmven in the pulpit If there
be no Christ ia the chancel and so Christ

kill bigotry as sunshine God's sunnlilne.
While each denomination of Christians
is to present all the truths of the Bible, it
seems to me that God bus given to encb
denoniinatiiii an ess-cia mission to give
particular emphasis to some one doctrine,
and so the Calvinistic churches must pre
sent the sovereignly of God, and the Ar
uiinian churches must present man' free
sgency, and the Episcopal churches must
present the importance of order and sol
fmu ceremony, and the Baptist churches
oiilst present the uecessity of ordinances,
and the Congregational church must pre
sent the responsibility of the Individunl
niciuber, and the Methodist church mnst
bow what holy enthusiasm, bearty con
gregationnl singing, can accomplish.
While inch denomination of ChriHliuns
must set forlb all the doctrines of the Bi
ble, I feel It is espe-ially incumbent upon
each denomination to pat particular eta
pbasia on some one doctrine.
Damag Done by Scctarianiam.
Another grent dauuige done by the sec
ts nanism and bigotry of the charch is
that it disgusts people with the Cliristisn
religion. Now, my friends, tbe church of
God wss never intruded for s wsr bar
rack. People are afraid of a riot Vou gs
down the street, and you see an excite
ment snd missiles flying through the air,
nd yon hesr the sliw k f firearms. Do
yon, the peaceful and isdustrlous eitisea,
gs through that street? Oh, nol You
will say, "I'll go sround the Mock." Now,
men come snd look upon tbis narrow path
to heaven, and sometimes see the ecclesl
aatlcsl brickbats flying every whither, snd
they say: "Well, I guess I'll tske the
broad road. There la so much aharpshoot
Isg on tbe narrow road I gsess I'll try the
brosd road."

life to controversial disputes when. If they
had givea their life to something practi
cal, they might have bees vsstly useful.
Suppose, while I spesk, there were a com
mon enemy coming up tbe bay snd sll tbs
forts sround the hsrbor began to fire into
each other. You would cry out: "National
suicide. Why don't those forts blsse ewsy
la one direction snd thst against the com
mon enemy?" And yet I sometimes see
in the charch ef the Lord Jesus Christ a
strange thing going on church against
church, minister against minister, denom
ination sgsinst denomination, firing away
Into their own fort, or the fort which
ought to be oa the aame aide, instead of
consecrating their energy snd giving ons
mighty snd everlasting volley sgsinst the
nsvies of dsrkneas riding up through tbs
bay.
I go out sometimes In tbe summer, snd
I find two bee hives, snd these two hives
are In a quarrel. I come nesr enough not
to be stung, but I come just near enough
to hesr the controversy, snd one bee hive
ssys, "Thst field of clover ia the sweet
est" snd snother bee hive says, "That
field cf clover la the sweetest." I come in
between tbem, and I say: "Stop this quar
rel. If you like that field of clover best
go there. If you like thia field of clover
best, go there. But let me tell you that
that hive which gets the most honey is
the best hive!" So I come out between
tbe churches of tbe Lord Jesus Christ.
One denomination of' Chriatians says.
"That field of Christian doctrine is bet.1,"
and another says, "This field of Christian
doctrine la the best" Well, I say, "Go
where you get the most honey." '1 bat is
the liest church which gets the most honey
of Christian grace for the heart and tbe
most honey of Christian usefulness for
the life.
Intolerance Avails Nothing.
What did Intolerance accomplish against
the Baptist Church? If laughing scorn
and tirade could have destroyed the
church. It would not have to-dny a disciple
left The Baptists were hurled out of
Boston in olden times. Those who sym
pathized with them were imprisoned, and
when a petition was offered asking leni
ency in their behalf all the men who sign
ed 't were indicted. Has Intolerance stop
ped tbe Baptist Church? The last statis
tics ;n regard to it showed 44,000 churches
and 1,000,000 communicants. Intolerance
nevei put down snything.
In England a law was made against tbe
Jew. England thrust bark the Jew and
thrust down the Jew, and declared that
no Jew should hold official position. What
came tf it? Were tbe Jews destroyed?
Whs tieir religion overthrown? No.
Who bwame prime minister of England?
Who ws next to be throne? Who was
higher tian tbe throne, because he was
counselor and adviser? I 'Uracil, a Jew.
What wre we celebrating in all our
churches is well aa synagogues only s few
years ago? The one hundredth birthday
of Montedore, the great Jewish philan
thropist. Intolerance never put down
anything.
But now, my frlenda, having shown
you the origin of bigotry or sectarianism
and having shown you the damage it does,
I want briefly to show yon how we are to
war against this terrible evil, and I think
we ought to begin our war by realizing
our own weakness and our Imperfections.
If we make so many mistakes In tbe com
mon affairs of life, is it not possible that
we may make mistakes In regard to our
religious affairs? Shall we tske s man by
the throat or by the cqllar because he can
not see religious truths just as we do? In
the light of eternity it will be found it,
I think, there was something wrong in sll
our creeds and something right in sll our
creeds, but since w may make mistakes
In regard to things of the world, do not
let oa be so egotit and so puffed up aa
to have an idea that we cannot make any
mistake in regard to religious theories,
snd then I think we will do a great deal
j) overthrow the sctarinnism from our
1 eart and the sects rtnlum from the work!
ty chiefly enlarging ia those things in
Which we agree rather than thou so
viblch we differ.
Now, here is a grtat gospel platform.
A man comes up on thia side of the plat

ia t niau coming up on this side of tbe

Do you truNt him for time and for eter

plntform so large that all who receive
Christ may staud on it
Noble nstitutionw and Npble Mr-n.
I think we may overthrow the sever
se tiirianii,n and bigotry in oui hearts and
In the :bu :b also by realising that all the
denoaiinat: ins of Cliristiuns have yielded
noble inslitulious and noble men. There
is nothing that so stirs my son) as this
thought tine denomination yielded a
Itobert Hall and an Adoiiiratn Judson;
another yielded a Istimer and a Melville;
another yielced John Wt-sley snd tbe
blessed Sum nerlield, while our own de
nomination jielded John Knox and the
Alexanders sien of whom the world was
not worthy. Now, I say, If we are honest
and fair mindtsl men, when we come up in
the presence ;f such churches and such
denominations although tbey may ta dif
ferent from o.' own, we ought to admire
thesi snd we cuglit to love snd honor
them. Churches which can produce such
men, and such .arge hearted charity, and
sscli magnificent martyrdom ought to win
or affection at any rate our respect. Ho
come on, ye 000,000 Episesilians m this
country, and ye 1.400,000 I'reabyterisns,
and ye 4,000,000 Baptists, and ye ft.OUO,-
000 Methodists, come on. Shoulder to
aboslder we will march for tbe world's
conquest, for sll unions sre to be saved,
and od demands tbst yon snd I help.
1 or ward, the whole linej ! the Young
Men's Christian associations, In the Bible
society. In the Tract society, In the For
eign missionary society, shoulder to shoul
der to shoulder sll denomination. We
must be
One srmy of the living flod.
To bis command we bow;
Psrt ef tbe host have crossed xh flood,
And psrt are crossing now.
And I expect to see the dsy when all
nominstlons ef Christians shall join bands
areoad tbs rress of Christ snd recite the
creed: "I believe Id God the Fstber Al
