A remarkable contrast to the map in precious stones which lately aston ished Paris, is the railway map on tiles, put up at York Station, in Eng land, by the Northeastern company. It Is made of white tiles, the lines being j marked in black and burnt sienna. It is about six feet square, and each tile is eight inches square. The com pany intends to have similar maps at all important stations on its own sys tem. Prince Henry, consort of the Queen of Holland, is extremely busy at the present moment getting together a perfect armory of sporting guns, most ly of English manufacture, in view of his approaching trip to the island of Java, and to the remainder of the Dutch East Indies. He sails early in the month of June; that is to say, just about the time the honeymoon may : reasonably be expected to have begun to wane, and will remain absent until the end of the year. Scores of old barns in Ohio have floors and mangers of black walnut, put in fifty or seventy-five years -go, when tlie chief endeavor of the pi nicer was to clear the dense forests for crops.

ANTAGONISM TO THE GOSPEL HAS DISAPPEARLCL “Thfiv I* \r.nc I.lUc Tlmt, Give It Me” —(I) Samuel ul, I)—Temptation* of the Traveler—Treacher* Are More He (oarceful than In Former Day*. (Copyright, 1E01, by Louis Kiopsch, N. Y.) Washington, May f>.—In this dis course Dr. Talmage calls the roll of in fluences once antagonistic but now friendly to the gospel and encour ages Christian workers; text, 1. Sam uel xxi, 9, "There is none like that; give It me.” David fled from his pursuers. The world runs very fast when it is chas ing a good man. The country is try ing to catch David and to slay him. David goes into the house of a priest and as’ts him for a sword or spear with which to defend himself. The priest, not being accustomed to use deadly weapons, tells David that he cannot supply him, but suddenly the priest thinks of an old sword that had been carefully wrapped up and laid away—the very sword 'hat Goliatli formerly used—and he takes down that sword, and while he is unwrapping the sharp, glittering, memorable blade It flashed upon David’s mind that this is the Very sword that was used .\£*alust himself when he was in the fight with Goliath, and David can hardiy keep his hands off it until the priest has | unwound it. David stretches out his band toward that old sword, and says: “There is none like that; give it me." In other words, “I want in my own hand the sword which has been used against me and against the cause of God.” So it was given him. Well, my friends, that is not the first or the last sword once used by giant and Philistine iniquity which is to come into trie possession or Jesus unrisi ana his glorious church. I want, as well as God may help me, to show you that many a weapon which lia3 been used against the armies of God is yet to be captured and used on our side, and I only Imitate David when I stretch out my hand toward that blade of the Philistine and cry, “There is none like that; give it me!" I remark first that this is true in regard to all scientific exploration. You know that the first discoveries ir, astronomy and geology and chronol ogy were used to battle Christianity. Worldly philosophy came out of its laboratory and out of its observatory and said, "Now, we will prove by the very structure of the earth and by the movement of the heavenly bodies that the Bible is a lie and that Christianity as we have it among men is a posi tive imposition.” Good men trembled. The telescope, the Leyden jars, the electric batteries, all in tho hands of the Philistines. But one day Chris tianity, looking about for some weapon with which to defend itself, hap pened to see the very old sword that these atheistic Philistines had been using against the truth and cried out, “There is none like that; give it me!” And Copernicus and Galilei and Kepler and Isaac Newton and Hersehel and O. M. Mitchell came forth and told the world that in their ransacking of the earth and heavens they had found overwhelming presence of the God whom we worship, and this old Bible began to shake itself from the Koran and Shaster and Zendavesta with which it had been covered up and lay on the desk of the scholar and in the laboratory of the chemist and in the lap of the Christian unharmed and un answered, while the tower of the mid night heavens struck a silvery chime in its praise. Tli«» Eternal banter. Worldly philosophy said: “Matter is 1 eternal. The world always was. God did not make it." Christian philoso phy plunges its crowbar into rocks and finds that the world was grad- 1 ually made, and if gradually made ; there must have been some point at which the process started. Then who started it? And so that objection was overcome, and in the first three words of the Bible we find that Moses stated a magnificent truth when he said, “In the beginning.” Worldy philorophy said: “Your Bi ble is a most inaccurate book. All that story in the Old Testament, again and again told, about the army of the locusts—it Is preposterous. There is nothing in the coming of the locusts like an army. An army walks; lo- j custs fly. An army goes in order and i procession; locusts without order,” I “Wait,” said Christian philosophy, and In 1868 in the southwestern part of this country Christian men went out to ex amine the march of the locusts. There are men right, before me who must have noticed in that very part or the country the coming up of the locusts like an array, and It was found that all the newspaper unwittingly spoke of them as an army. Why? They seem to have a commander. They march like a host. Tin y halt like a host. No arrow ever went in straight er flight than the locusts come, not even turning aside for the wind. If the wind rises, the locusts drop, and then rise again after it has gone down, taking the same line of march, not varying a foot. The old Bible is right every time when it speak; of locusts coming like au army; worldly philos ophy -wrong. Worldly philosophy said, “All that story about the light ‘turned as clay to the seal’ Is simply an absurdity.” Old time worldly philosophy said, "The light comes straight.” Chris tian philosophy says, “Wait a little while,” and it goes on and makes dis coveries and finds that the atmosphere curves and bends the rays of light around the earth, literally “as the Clay to the seal." The Bible right ! again; worldly philosophy wrong again. “Ah," says worldly philoso phy, “all that allusion in Job about the foundations of the earth is simply an absurdity. ‘Where watt thou,’ says God, 'when I set the foundations of the earth?’ The earth has no foun dation.” Christian philosophy comes and llnd3 that the word as translated ‘‘foundations” may be better trans lated ‘‘sockets.” §o now see how it will read if it is translated right, ‘‘Where wast thou when I set the sockets of the earth?” Where is the socket? It is the hollow of God’s hand—a socket large enough for any world to turn in. Worldly philosophy said: “What an absurd story about Joshua making the sun and moon stand still! If the world had stopped an instant, the whole uni verse would have been out of gear.” “Stop,” said Christian philosophy; “not quite so quick.” The world has two motions—one on its own axis and the other around the sun. It was not necessary in making them stand still that both motions should be stopped— only the one turning the world on its own axis. There was no reason why the halting of the earth should have jarred and disarranged the whole uni verse. Joshua right and God right; infidelity wrong every time. I knew it would be wrong I thank God that the time has come when Christians need not be scared at any scientific explora tion. The fact is that religion and science have struck hands in eternal friendship, and the deeper down geol ogy can dig and the higher up astron omy can soar all the better for us. The armies of the I-ord Jesus Christ have stormed the observatories of the world’s science and from the highest towers have flung out the banner of the cross, and Christianity now from the observatories at Albany and Washington stretches out its hand toward the opposing scientific weapon, crying, “There is none like that; give it me.” I was reading of Herschel, who was looking at a meteor through a telescope, and when it came over the face of the telescope it was so pow erful he had to avert his eyes. And it has been just so that many an as tronomer has gone into an observa tory and looked up into the midnight heavens and the Lord God has through some swinging world flamed upon his vision, and the learned man cried out: “Who am I? Undone! Unclean! Have mercy, Lord God!” Temptation* of the Traveler. Again, I remark that the traveling disposition of the world, which was adverse to morals and religion. Is to be brought on our side. The man that went down to Jericho and fell amid thieves was a type of a great many travelers. There is many a man who is very honest at home who when he is abroad has his honor filched and his good habits stolen. There are but very few men who can stand the stress of an expedition. Six weeks at a water ing place have ruined many a man. In the olden times God forbade the traveling of men for the purposes of trade because of the corrupting influ ences attending it. A good many men now cannot stand the transition from one place to another. Some men who seem to be very consistent here in the way of keeping the Sabbath when they get into Spain on the lord's day al ways go out to see the bull fights. Plato said that no city ought to be built nearer to the sea than ten miles lest it be tempted to commerce. But this traveling disposition of the world which was adverse to that which is good is to be brought on our side. ThesS mail trains, why, they take our bibles; these steamships, they trans port our missionaries; these sailors, rushing from city to city all around the world are to be converted into Christian heralds and go out and preach Christ among the heathen na tions. The gospels are infinitely mul tiplied in beauty and power since Rob inson and Thompson and Burckhardt have come back and talked to us about Siloam and Capernaum and Jer usalem, pointing out to us the lilio3 about which Jesus preached, the beach upon which Paul was ship wrecked, the fords at which Jordan was passed, the Red ilea bank on which were tossed the carcasses erf th« drowned Egyptians. A man said: "I went to the Holy Land an infidel. I came back a Christian. I could not help it." UnlT*r«ailtT of Itellgion. So It has also been with the learn ing and eloquence of the world. Peo ple say, “Religion is very good for aged women, it is very good for children, but not for men.” Rut we have in the roll of Christ's host Mozart and Han del in music, Canova and Angelo in sculpture, Raphael and Reynolds in painting, Harvey and Roerhaave in medicine, Cowper and Scott In poetry, Grotius and Rurke in statesman ship, Boyle and Leibnitz in philosophy, Thomas Chalmers and John Mason In theology. The most brilliant writings of a worldly nature are all aglow with Scriptural allusions. Samuel L, Southard was mighty In the court room and in the senate cham ber, lint he reserved his strongest elo quence for that day when ho stood be fore the literary societies at Princeton commencement and pleaded for the grandeur of our Bible. Daniel Web ster won not his chief garlands while responding to Hayne nor when he opened the batteries of his eloquence on Bunker Hill, that rocking Sinai of the American Revolution, but on that day when in the famous Girard will case ho showed his affection for the Christian religion and eulogized the Bible. The eloquence and the learning that have been on the other side coine over to our side. Captured for God! “There is none like that; give it me.” So also has it been with the picture making of the world. We are very anxious on this day to have the print ing press and the platform on the side of Christianity, but we overlook the engraver's knifo and the painter’o pencil. The antiquarian goes and looks at pietur&J ruins or examines the chiseled pillars of Thebes and Nineveh and Pompeii and then comes back to toll us of the beastliness of ancient art. and it is a fact now that many of the- finest specimens—merely artistically considered—cf sculpture and painting that are to be found amid those ruins are not fit to be looked at, and they are locked up. How Paul must have felt when, standing amid those impurities that stared on him from the walls and pavements and ba zaars of Corinth, he preached of tho pure and holy Jesus. The art of the world on the side of obscenity and crime and death. Much of the art of the world has been in the possession of the vicious. What to unclean Henry VIII. was a beautiful picture of the Madonna? W’hat to Lord Jeffreys, the unjust Judge, the picture of the "I^ast Judg ment?” What to Nero, the unwashed, a picture of the baptism in the Jor dan? The art of the world on the wrong side. But that is being changed now. The Christian artist goes over to Rome, looks at the pictures and brings back to his American studio much of the power of these old mas ters. The Christian minister goes over to Venice, looks at the “Crucifixion of Christ” and comes back to the Ameri can pulpit to talk as never before of the sufferings of the Savior. The pri vate tourist goes to Rome and looks at Raphael's picture of the “Last Judg ment.” The tears start, and he goes back to his room in the hotel and prays God for preparation for that day when Shriveling like a parched scroll. The flaming heavens together roll. Clirlat'a Social Foal I Ion. So I remark It is with business acumen and tact. W'hen Christ was upon earth, the people that followed him for the most part had no social position. There was but one man naturally oniuani in an • e apostie ship. Joseph of Arimathea, the rich man, risked nothing when he offered a hole in the rock for the dead Christ. How many of the merchants in Asia Minor befriended Jesus? I think of only one—Lydia. How many of the castles on the beach at Galilee enter tained Christ? Not one. When Peter came to Joppa, he stopped with one Simon, a tanner. What power had Christ’s name on the Roman exchange or in the bazaars of Corinth? None. The prominent men of the day did not want to risk their reputation for sanity by pretending to be one of his follow ers. Now that is all changed. Among the mightiest men in our great cities today are the Christian merchants and the Christian bankers, and if tomor row at the board of trade any man. should get up and malign the name of Jesus he would be quickly silenced or put out. In the front rank of all our Christian workers today are the Chris tian merchants, and the enterprises of the world are coming on the right aide. There was a farm willed away some years ago, all the proceeds of that farm to go for spreading infidel books. Somehow matters have changed, and now all the proceeds of that farm go toward the missionary cause. One of the finest printing presses ever built was built for the express purpose of publishing infidel tracts and books. Now it does nothing but print Holy Bibles. I believe that the time will come when in commercial circles th» voice of Christ will be the mightiest of al! voices and the ships of Tarshislt 1 will bring presents and the queen of ; Sheba her glory and the wise men of the east their myrrh and frankincense. I look off upon the business men of this land and rejoice at the pros | pect that their tact and ingenuity and talent are being brought into the serv 1 ice of Christ. It is one of the mightiest of weapons. “There is none like that; give it me." I ' ‘ TRAIN FOOLED THEM. | I'cw Thrilling Momenta and Then 8°m* Faint I«aiigliter. The Fulton street line of the Brook 'yn elevated road branches just before it gets to the Franklin avenue station, one division •continuing out Fulton street to East New York and the city line, the other going out to Fiatbush and Brighton Beach, says the New York Sun. As a train from the bridge was approaching the station late yes terday afternoon a stout, elderly man among the crowd waiting for it fell off of the platform on the tracks. The ! train was about forty yards away, and coming at. a clipping gait. Half of the crowd screamed to the old .nan to get out of the way, but he seemed somewhat dazed by his fall, and made two attempts to get up from the tracks without success. By this time the train was barely fifty feet away, and coming with a rush. A half-dozen women began to scream, four or five men rushed down the platform signal ing the train to stop, and a young fellow in overalls jumped down on the track, ran across it and laid hold of the old man’s shoulders. But the old man was a load, and his struggles didn’t help matters. Most of the wom en on the platform looked away and ' covered their eyes. The young fellow in overalls made a last desperate, un successful pull, and the train turned off twenty feet from where the old man lay and rattled on to the Fiatbush sta tion. Then, after a moment or two, the crowd laughed, hut not much. Tho young fellow in overalls and several others helped the elderly man on the platform, and he went down stairs limping. A stout woman went back into the waiting room and fainted. True fishers of souls have llt/Je nan for bread and butter baai THE SUNDAY SCHOOL. LESSON VII. MAY IQ: LUKE XXIV.-44-53. ACTS 1:1—11.

A number of year;; ago a delegation of Sioux Indians was present at a public meeting In tho Philadelphia Academy of Music Bed Cloud, whose burly form and natural eloquence had at tracted much attention, was called upon to speak. Turning to Mr. G. H. Stuart, he said: “Red Cloud wants to ask you one question—Who made us? Did you ever see the Great Spirit or his Son? You have told Red Cloud that the Great Spirit came down from heaven, and dwelt among the white men, and that he went up again. (Pondering fur a few minutes.) What did he go up again for? Red Cloud has come and he wants to find out.” Many others want an answer. Jesus himself answered the question worm 10. n Only by his going away could the Holy Spirit come and take his place. With him In bodily presence In any one place, the attention of his people would he called away from the spiritual and universal nature of his church, to that which was outward, and temporal, and earthly. The work of the Holy Spirit would be hin dered and hampered. Statecraft, politics, government by force, would naturally arise, turning the thoughts away from new hearts and spiritual lives. Ills bodi ly presence could be only in some one place, toward which all men would tend. "A present bodily Jesus Involves a geo graphical church ' Now abiding on the right hand of God. lie is enabled la be the omnipresent Savior of all men, as would not be possible if he were in the body, though as king In Jerusalem His Holy Spirit Is everything to all men every where that he himself would be if pres ent with each one to aid. to comfort, and to guide. “The Holy Spirit," says Hoard man. ' gives ns one and the same church throughout all lands and times and names." Now in the unseen heavens Is "the common destiny, the true father land of all the sons of God." The ascension was a noble and fitting close of the earthly career of Jesus; far better than to die again, as I.azarus did, or than to remain always on earth in his body—the only alternatives. Jesus’ life thus became also u type of our lives, an Inspiration toward such living as would bring the most glorious and perfect end ing of our earthly careers that Is con ceivable. through our resurrection ( xis tence in glorified spiritual bodies. It showed the continued reality of Christ's existence, linking this world with the other, and showing how he could be the ever-living Savior in heaven, whom Stephen saw at the right hand of God. who came to Haul on the way to Damas cus, who is ever with his people, even to the end of the world. The last view of Christ Is not upon the cross, but ascend ing from Olivet Into glory; not in agony of atonement, but in the act of blessing; not in seeming defeat, but in manifest triumph. We worship not a dead but a living Savior, to whom we shall go. with whom we shall he In glory, and whom we shall love and serve through endless ages. Thus his children are taught to live by faith and not by sight, and are trained in character and manhood by the responsi bility of carrying on his work.

They probably imagined that tile world would tie converted to Judaism, and that Jerusalem, the holy city, would bo the resort of all nations, the center of light and power and religion for the world. They probably had no conception, and could not have, of any other way in which the hopes of the Jews and the promises of the Bible could be accom plished. Bight from History. In 177.? there was discovered in Abyssinia a book called the Hook of ICnoch, which was written In the first and second centuries before Christ. It expresses the inner mind of the Jewish people at the time of Christ. The people were dally expecting the establishment of the Messianic kingdom, not a spiritual kingdom, hut a scene of material glory, where “the Jews would he exalted above nil surrounding nations, and the hated Invader expelled.” "Tills eager expecta tion," says Professor Stokes, "dominated every other feeling In the Jewish mind, and was burned into the very secrets of th.ir existence by the tyranny of ilia Homan rule.” ITEMS OF INTEREST.
