He was known to them In the break

There are many wonderful and glo
rious pictures In the Ixmvre's palatial
gallery, but one picture there Impress
ed me as more pathetic than any other
Rembrandt's "Supiter at Eminaua."
It is a little band breadth thing, but
few of the larger and splendid can
vase held me with so strong a clutch.
There are many wonderful and glo
rious passages in the New Testament,
but few more put belie to my appre
hension than that little story of the
walk to Emmaus, the disciples not
recognizing- the Master, while yet their
hearts burned within theui as tuey
talked with Hi.n by the way. And the
etory re.iches its eliin.is. of beauty, un
folds tii sweetest flower of its sig
I liicaix-e, where the iliscipli-s, rehears-
tlie details of the event, tell how Je
ms "was known to them In the break
ing of bri-ail."
Whatever may be thought of the
narrative as a report of things act
ually happening, it Is a lovely para
ble of spiritual realities. How inter
esting and suggestive that He was
not known to them by any nign that
marked Him as the Messiah or In any
way pre-eminent, but by one 'of the
simplest things He had ever dune In
their presence. One likes to think of
tneir recalling something plua-vunt in
His manlier, some happy, grateful
look ujmih His face, as If He were
Cod's minister In answering the pray
er, "(live us this day our dally bread,"
which He had taught them when they
Hiked I Iliu how to pray. Perhaps the
time when He sat at the table with
them was the time when the conscious
burden of His ministry was least op
pressive and He unbent Himself In
the most Intimate and friendly man
lier. It Is very lovely to be thought of
alive and remembered when dead as
doing kind and pleasant things. Among
the thousands of exaggerated and pre
tentious epitaphs In Mount Auburn
there Is one which reads: "She was so
pleasi)t." I think It one of ,je most
enviable. And there are many wo
men ami as many men who earn it
perfectly. They do not strive nor cry,
but wherever they go and whatever
they do they diffuse an atmosphere of
comfort and content. They make sick
people well iiud sad people merry.
They dispel the gloom from anxious
hearts and the fevered pulse Is iuieted
at the cisil fountain of their unfailing
cheer.
A great many persons are known to
their families and friends In the same
way as Jesus was known In the New
Testament story, by their behavior at
the morning, noonday or evening meal.
"Joy of the street," says the provin
cial proverb, "Curse of the home.' It
Is a proverb which (its many people
like a glove. There are men who
spend all their pleasantness and gay
ety on their companions iu business
and at the club and have only sour
looks and cross words at home. There
are women who can "smile and smile"
at the afternoon reception and the
evening party and be anything but
agreeable in the uneventful round of
their domestic cares. But what men
and women are In this uneventful
round goes far, not only to show their
tre character, but to make It what It
is for better or worse.
Francis Bacon said: "(iod bungs
the greatest weights upon the smallest
ylres." That would be dangerous me
chanics were not the wires so many
VUat in their aggregate they are such
strength as that of the cables on
which our great suspension bridges
Jwlng In air. The atomic theory may
true or false In physics; It is cer
tainly true upon the spiritual plane.
K great actions, characters and
events are prepared for In silence and
obscurity In Innanicralile little seem
ingly unimportant actions, refusals, ac
ceptances, dispositions. The roots of
a great character spread out like the
roots of a irreat tree, ten thousands
filaments drawing their virtue from
the dark earths and secret springs
and yielding each lis proper increment
to that great strength with which tlie
rcn or character flings its branches
and defies the storm. Men and wo
men are best known ss they arc most
surely fashioned by such little seem
lnirlv rttv actions as the breaking
of bread or the making of it or the
tasks necessary for the honest earning
of it, because the whole character
rushes Into expression in every part,
because every part reports the sound
ness or unsoundness of the whole to
which it has contributed its due pro
portion of those elements which In
their nuirregatlon ami co-ordination
make up a human life.

ETERNAL LIKE 18 POSSESSION.
By Her. W. J. Ullllmmxcn.
In the chapter from which the text
Is taken we learn that the Hebrew
Christians were suffering great perse
cution. Every possible method was
used to cause them to apostatize froin
their Christian faith. It is the at
tempt of the author to encourage them
by setting forth the fact that judalsic
had been fultllled in Christ and that
the Jew, In becoming a Christian, win
but recoirnl.ing the completion and
glorification of the Jewish faith. The
writer Is also pointing out the heaven
ly compensation for their earthly suf
ferings and losses.
The text Is so worded ns to em
phasize this heavenly Inheritance In a
most beautiful and Impressive manner.
The writer calls to their attention the
fact that they have an Inward assur
ance which amounts to knowledge. Tin
deepest truths are often better known
to us than many of the simpler ones.
It Is the privilege of every Chris
tian to know the relation he sustains
to Cod. To have such assurance Is
not to be lioitstful. but Is, In fact, a
simple, childlike faith in our Heaven-
ly father's promises. Again and again
Jesus spoke to his disciples of their
salvation rind of the power of the
rather and of himself to keep them
until they were safely within their
Father's house. We are often exhorted
by the Bible to possess this assurance.
The language of the inspired writers
is always a language of certainty. Job
savs. "I know that my Redeemer
llveth." Thenposlle whom Jesus loved
knew that he had passed from death
unto life, anil rani, having committed
his way unto Jesus, speaks In words of
subllmest confidence. If we believe
til Cod and his Word, and if we love
him find are seeking to serve him with
our whole heart, then we are to gn
on our way rejoicing In the conftdeiica
that our God will redeem every prom
ise. The text also seeks to remind Chris
tians that they have already entered
into this possession. Kternal life does
not begin at death, but rather -when
a man first becomes a child of Cod.
Jesus always spoke of eternal life as a
present possession. Death removes a
Christian's limitations, and enlarges
and ennobles his life, but that life
which Christ bestows nt conversion is
ailed eternal life.
Heaven will not be strange to a
Christian; It Is to be the completion
of the life here begun; the fulfillment
of all his hopes. He has long been in
fellowship with the Father, Hon and
Holy Spirit, and has been long anti
cipating the very things which will
then come to pass. Like the bird In
autumn, which longs for the South
land, the Christian was given at his
new birth the wings for flight.
We are also to remember that the
text Individualizes humanity. We
lose ourselves In the crowds of men
and very often the Individual does not
count for much. However, when Im
mortality Is bestowed upon a man, he
possesses It In his own right. Tha
very heart of Jesus' teaching is found
In the love of the Father for us, mid
in the fact that heaven knows us and
deals with us as Individuals.
The writer would emphasize tha
fact that the things that are to coma
are better than the things now pos
sessed. The Christian cannot be other
than an optimist. The Itible gives men
courage and hope because It always
foretokens victory. If the way seema
desert now, beyond lie green pastures,
and the still waters, lie assured (iod
will abundantly reward his children
for every act of faithfulness. Tlil
light ntlllctlons are working for us an
exceeding weight of glory.
It Is the part of wisdom to seek
to possess this enduring inheritance.
We live In a world of change. Tin
fashion of tills world passeth away.
Soon, very soon, changes are to conn
In the business and social circles It
which we move, and the place thai
knows us shall know us no more.
Let us endeavor to estimate at some,
thing like their real worth. We need
not work blindly and come up at hist
with bitter regrets as we behold tin
Inevitable separation, from tilings tem
poral. It Is the privilege of every
man to have the holiest Joys of thlj
world, and at life's close receive the
crown of righteousness that fadeth not
away. Once more, perhaps for the last
time, let us hear Christ's unanswerable
question: "W nat suaii it prom a man
. . 1 . . :r. "
to emu ine wnoiu wunu uuu iums uif
own soul?'

CRIPPLE CREEK, CoL-Presi-dent
Charles II. Moyer of the feder
ation of miners was arraigned on the
charge of murder before a justice of
the peace this afternoon, but on
motion of Deputy District Attorney
Ciump the esse went oer. It Is the
Intention to file a direct Information
gainst the labor leader tomorrow.
Id response to a telegram from an
eastern nt wspBper asking for a state
ment from lilm as to whether he
said that Governor Peabody would
soon have to declare the whole of
Colorado in a state of rebellion and
put the state under martial law,
Adjutant General Bell has replied as
follows:
"The alleged Interview is abso
lutely without foundation. I not
only never gave out such an inter
view, but the idea Is absolutely
foreign to my mind under the past
and prcseot conditions.
! "There Is no need ol declaring
Colorado under martial law. The
whole state practically has beeu
cleaned up by niy deportation system.
There are but a few anarchists and
socialists left who can cause trouble.
However, should It become a mili
tary necessity, the whole state of
Colorado will be placed under mar
tial law and all insurrectionists
dealt with accordingly. 1 do not
believe that this will ever be neces
sary. In my Judgment the Colorado
labor troubles are at an end.
"We have been maklrg the fight
for the whole of the United States,
as the western federation of n lneiS
has bpen receiving financial support
and other assistance from the coun
try at large. Colarado is looking to
other states to follow suit."
Belleves In an Open Shop.
COLORADO SPRINGS, Col.
President Hums of the Portland
mine, has issued a statement to the
public. It defends bis policy of
what he calls the "open shop," and
continues: i
"I am accused of being a partisan
of the western federation of miners.!
It Is uotiue. I believe In an open
shop and have always enforced it.
I am neither for or against orga
nized labor. I respect Its rights and
I hive required It all times to re
spect mlLe. I believe in freedom of
contract and right of a man to work
his property In his own way and
have practiced what I preach. 1
"My action has been repudiated
by board of directors, a majority of
whom bavc ordered the suits dis
missed, and the ordc will be
obeyed."

was shot and killed last Dibt while
attempting to maite an arrest on an
Omaha train near Fall Creek, Wig.
Tbe man who did the shooting and
whose name is unknown jumped from
tbe moving train and escaped.
Sheriff Harris bad gone to Eau
Claire on business and when about
to b iard the train for Hudson was
informed by the chief of police of
Eau Claire that a man suspected of
buiglcry was aboard tbe tbe tialn.
Tbe sheriff searched the train and
finally located his man In tbe smok
ing car. He placed him under arrest
id was about to handcuff him when
the desperado drew a levolver and
lired three times, shooting the
si. erlff through tbe head and killing
him instantly. .
In the eicitemcDt which followed
