In continuing his sermons, while
abroad llev. T. DoWltt Talmago, In a
recent discourse, look hi text from Rev.
vll, 0, 10: "A floe this I beheld, and, lo,
n great multitude which no man could
number, of nil nations, and kindreds,
nml people, and tongues, stood lcforo
the throne, and before the Lamb.clothcd
in white robes, and palms in their
hands; and cried with u loud voice, wiv
ing, 'Salvation to our God which nit
teth upon the throne, nnd unto the
Lamb.'" Dr. Tnl mage said:
It Is impossible to come in contact
with anything grand or beautiful In
nrt, nature or religion without being
profited and elevated. We go Into tlio
.nrt gallery and our soul meets the soul
of the painter, and we hear the hum of
)ta ....n4 ttMit ttin nltiull tit llfn Intl
lia ' tnw v.... .... w- .
filets, nnd rcc tlio cloud blossoming of'
the nicy and the foam blossoming of tlio
ocean, nnd we. come out from tile gui
flcry bqtlcr men Minn when wo wont In.
"Wp go into the concert of music and are
alftcd Into enchantment; for days nftcr
out soul seems to roclc with a very tu
mult of joy, as the sea. after u long
stress of weather, rolls nnd rocks and
urges a great while before it comes
baclt to Its ordinary calm.
On the same principle It Is profitable
to think of Heaven, and look off upon
that Inndscupu of Joy and light which
fc't John deplete; the rivers of gladness,
tlio trees of life, the thrones of power,
tho commlngllngs of everlasting love.
I wish this morning I could bring
Ilehven from the list of Intangibles and
mtiko It seem to you as it really is tho
great fact in all history, the depot of
nil ages, the parlor of God's universe.
Tliis account in ray text gives a pict
ure of I leaven as it is on a holiday.
2s'qw if a mau cume to New York for
tho first time on tho day that Kossuth
arrived from Hungary, and saw the
nrehes lifted, and the llnwers Hung In
the streets, and ho heard the guns
booming, he would have been very fool
ish to suppose that that was tho ordi
nary nppunraueo of the city. While
Ileuven is always grand und always
beautiful, I think my text speaks of a
gala day in Heaven.
It Is a time of grent celebration per
haps of tho birth or resurrection of
Jesus; perhaps of the downfall of some
despotism; perhaps because of the rush
ing in of tin millennium. 1 know not
-what, but it docs seem to me In rending
cthls passage as If' it were a holiday in
ileuven; "after this 1 beheld, and, In, n
great multitude, which no man could
number, of all nations, and kindreds,
nnd people, nnd tongues, stood before
tlio throne, and before the Lamb,
clothed in white robes nnd palms in
their hands, and cried with a loud voice,
isaylng: 'Salvation to our God, which
islttcth upon tlio throne, and unto the
Lamb.'",
1 shall speak to you of the glorified in
Jiouven their number, their anteced
ents, their dress, their symbols nnd
their songs. Hut how shall I begin by
telling you of the numbers of those In
Heaven? I have scon a curious esti
mate by an ingenious man, who calcu
lates how long tho world wns going to
last, and how many people there are In
ouch generation, nnd then sums up tlio
whole matter nnd says he thinks there
will be twenty-seven millions of souls
In glory. I have uo faith in his estimate.
I simply talto the plain announcement
of the text It Is "a great multitude,
which no man cun number."
livery few years in this country we
tnko a census of tho population, nnd it
is very easy to toll how many people
there are In a city or nation, llut who
ohall give the census of the great nation
of the saved? It Is quite easy to toll
how muny pcoplo there are in the dif
ferent denominations of Christians
how many IlapllsU, and Methodists,
nnd Episcopalians, nnd Presbyterians.
Of nil tho denominations of Christians
we could make an estimate. Sunnose
they were gathered in one great audi
onco room; how overwhelming tho spec
tacle! llut it would give no idea of tho
yretit nudlenco room of Heaven tho
multitudes that bow dowu und lift up
tholr hosannns. Why, they come from
all the chapels, from nil the cathedrals,
from nil sects, from all ages; they who
pruyed in splendid liturgy, aud those
who in broken sentences uttered the
wish of broken hearts from Grace
church und Sailor's bethel, from under
tho tihnpeless rafters and from under
high sprung ajroh "a great multitude
that no man can number."
Ono of the most impressive things I
liavo looked upon Is an army. Stand
ing upon a hillside you see forty thous
nnd or fifty thousand men pass along.
You can hardly Imagine thu impression
If yon have not uctuully felt it Hut
you muy take all tho armies that the
earth has evor seen the legions under
Sennacherib and Cyrus and Ciusar,
Xerxes nnd Alexander und Napoleon,
und all our modern forces und put them
In ono great array, and then on some
hwlft steed you may rldo along tho line
mid review tho troops; und that accumu
lated host from nil ages seems like u
half formed regiment compared .with
the great array of the redeemed.
I stood one day at Willlamsport nnd
buw on the opposite side of thu Poto
mac the forces coming down, regiment
after regiment and brigade after brig-
nde. It seemed us though Micro was uo
ond to tho procession, llut now let nut
take tho field glass of St. John and look
oil. upon tho hosts of Heaven thous
ands upon thousands, 10,000 times 10,
000, 144,000 and thousindsof thousands,
unMl I put down the field glass nudsuy,
"I cannot estimate it u great multl
tudo that no man can number,"
You may tax your Imagination and
torture your Ingenuity nnd break dowu
vonr nowcrs of calculation In attempt-
hitr to discuss tho multitudes of tho re--
leased from earth nnd the unruptured
of hundreds of hundreds of hundreds,
of thousands of thousands of thousands,
of millions of millions of millions until
your head aches anil your heart faint,
nnd e.xhnustcd and overburdened you
exclaim! "I cannot count them a
great multitude that no man can num
ber." Hut my subject advances and tells you
of their antecedents, "of all nations nnd
kindreds nnd tongues," Somo of them
npoko Scotch, Irish, German, English,
Italian, Spanish, Tamil, Choctaw, Itur
meso. After men have been long in tlio
laud you can tell by their accentuation
from what nationality they came: and I
suppose In tho great throng around tho
throne it will not bo difficult to tell
from what part of tho earth they came.
Theso reaped Sicilian whcntllclds
nnd those picked cotton from thu pods.
These under blistering skies gathered
tnmarlnds nnd ynms. Those crossed
thu desert on camels, nnd those glanced
over tho snow, drawn by Siberian dogs',
and theso milked tho goats far up on
tho Swiss crags. Theso fought thu wal
rus and white bear iu regions of ever
lasting snow, nnd those heard tho song
of tlery winged birds, in African thick
ets. They were white. They were
black. They were red. They were
copper color. From all lands, from till
ages. They were plunged Into Austrian
dungeons. They passed through Span
ish inquisitions. Thoy were rontlneu
In London tower. They fought with
Iwasts In the amphitheater. Thoy were
Moravians. Thoy wcro Wnldensos.
They wero Alblgonsos. They were
Scotch Covenanters Thoy wero Sand
wich Islanders.
Iu this world men prefer different
klndsof government. The United States
wunt u republic. The Krltlsh govern
ment needs to bo a constitutional mon
archy. Austria wants absolutism. llut
when they come up from earth from
different nationalities, thoy will prefer
one great monarchy King Jesus ruler
over It And If that monarchy wero
disbanded, nnd it were submitted to all
the hosts of Heaven who should rulo
them, then by tho unanimous suffrages
of all the redeemed Christ would lye
come tho president of tho whole uni
verse. Magna Chartas, bills of right,
houses of burgesses, triumvirates, con
gresses, parliaments nothing in tho
presenco of Christ's scepter, swaying
over nil tho people who havo entered
upon that great glory. Ot can you Im
agine It? What a strange commingling
of tastes, of histories, of nationalities
'!of all nations nnd kindreds and people
and tongues."
My subject ndvances and tells you of
tho dress of those iu Heaven. Tho ob
ject of dress in this world Is not only to
veil the body, but to ndorn It The
God who dresses up tho spring jnornlng
with bluo ribbon of sky around the
brow, nnd earrings of dowdrops hung
from tree brunch, und man tie. of crim
son cloud Hung over tho shoulder, nnd
the vloleted slippers of tho grass for
her feet I know that God does not de
spise beautiful npparcl. Well, what
shall we wear in Heaven? "I haw a
great multitude clothed In white
robes." It Is white! In this world we
had sometimes to have on working ap
parel, llrlght nnd lustrous garments
would bo ridiculously out of place
sweltering amid forges, or mixing
paints, or plastering ceilings or binding
books. Iu this world "we must, havo the
working day uppurel sometimes, und
wo care not how cn.irsn It Is. It Is ap
propriate: but when all tho toll of earth
Is past and there Is no moro drudgery
and no more wenriuess, wo shall stand
before the throne robed In white. On
earth we sometimes hud to wear mourn
ing upparul blank searf for the arm,
black vail for thu face, blank gloves for
thu hands, black band for tho hat.
Abraham mourning for Sarah; Isatie
mourning for Rebecca; Rachel mourn
ing for her children; David mourning for
Absolem; Mary mourning for Lazarus.
Every second of every minute of overy
hour ofovery duy u heart breaks.
The earth from zone to zone and from
polo to polo Is cleft with, sepulchral
rent, and tho earth can easily afford to
bloom and blossom when It Is so rich
with moldering life. Urn vest graves!
gruvesl lint when theso boroaveme.Us
have all passed nnd there ure no more
graves to dig nnd no more cofllns to
make and no moro sorrow to suffer we
shall null off this mourning und bo
robed In white. 1 see" n soul going 1 1f;ht
up from this scene of sin nnd trouble
Into glory. I seem to hear him say:
I Journey forth rrtJolrlnR
From Mil lurk vitln ot tears,
To hfftvnnlv 1Y wul freedom,
From e.irlbly cire and feurs.
When Christ mv !.ord shall Gather

I hear my S.ivlour calllns,
Tho joyful hour Ins come,
Thu ungel KUtitU uro rVudy
To guldo ma to our homo.
When Christ our Lord shall gather
All Ills redeemed u;.iln.
Ills Itlnk'dom to Inherit
(lood nljlit till then
My subject advances and tolls you of
tho symbols thoy carry. If my text had
represented thu good In Heaven as car
rying cypress branches that would
have meant sorrow. If my text had
represented the good In Heaven as car
rying nightshade th.it would have
meant sin. llut it is a palm branch
they carry, and that is victory. When
the people came home from war in olden
times the conquerer rode at the head of
his troops und there wero triumphal
arches and the people would come out
with brunches of the palm tree und
wave them till ulong thu host, What it
significant type this of the greeting and
of the Joy of tho redeemed In Heaven!
On earth they were condemned and
wcro put out of polite circles. They
had infamous hands strike them oil
both cheeks. Infernal spito spat In
their faces. Thulr bte.k ached with
sorrow. Their brow reeled with mini
lcvlated toll, How weary thoy were!
Sometimes they broke thu heart ot lite
midnight In the midst of all their an
guish, crying outt "O Godl" Hut hark
now to tho shout of thu delivered cap
tives, us they lift their arms from tho
shackles und they cry out: "Free!
Freel"
They look back upon all tho trials
battles thoy havo fought,- the burdens
they cArrld, tho misrepresentations
thoyuffered, nnd because they nro de
livered from all these. thoy stand before
God waving tholr palms. They como Cincinnati
to. the feet of Christ and thoy look up
Into his face, and thoy remember his
sorrows, nnd they romomber his pain,
and thoy rcmomfcor his groans, nnd
they say: "Why, I was hayed by that
Christ Ho pardoned my sins. Ho
Boothcd my sorrows;" nnd standing
there they shall bo exultant, waving
their palms.
That hand onco held tho Implement
of toll or' wielded tho sword of war; but
now It plucks down branches from tho
tree of life as they stand before tho
throne wnvlng their palms. Onco he
was n pilgrim on enrth; ho crunched
the html crusts ho walked tho weary
way: but it Is all gone now, the sin
gonu, tlio weariness gone, the sickness
gone, tho sorrow gone. As Christ stands
up before the great array of tho saved
and recounts Ills victories, it will bo
like clio rocking nnd tossing of u forest
In h tempest, as nil thu redeemed riso
up. host beyond host, rank boyond rank,
waving, wnvlng their palms.
My subject makes another ndvnncc
ment nnd speaks of the songs they sing.
Dr. Dick, In a very learned work, says
that among other things In Heaven ho
thinks they will give n great deal of
time to the study of arithmetic nnd tho
higher branches of mathematics. I do
not believe It It would upset my idea
of Heaven If I thought so; I never liked
mathematics; and I would rather take
the representation of my text, which
describes the occupation of Heaven us
being joyful psalmody. "Thoy cried
with a loud voice, saying, Salvation un
to our God." In this world wo havo
secular songs, nursery songs, boatmen's
songs, harvest songs, sentimental songs)
but in Heaven wo will havo tasto only
for one song, nnd that will bo tho song
of salvation from an etcrnnl death to
nn eternal heaven, through tho blood
of the Lumb that was slain.
In this world wo havo plaintive songs
songs tremulous with sorrow, songs
dlrgoful for tho dead, but in Heaven
there will bo no sighing of winds, no
wnlllng of anguish, no weeping sym
phony. The tamest song will bo tho
hallelujah tho dullest tune a tri
umphal march. Joy among the oher
ublml Joy among the seraphim! Joy
nmong the ransomed! Joy foreverl
On enrth tho music, in churches is
often poor, became there Is no Interest
In It or because there Is no harmony.
Some would not sing; sotno could not
sing; some sang too high; somo snng
too low; somo sang by fits and starts;
but In the great nudlenco of the re
deemed on high all voices will bo nt
cordant. nnd tho man who on earth
could not tell n plantation melody from
the "Dead March In Saul" will lift nn
nuthe'm that tho Mendelssohns und
Hcethovons nnd the Schumanns of earth
never Imagined; and you may stand
through nil eternity und listen, nnd
there will not be ono discord In that
great anthem that forever rolls up
ngalnst tho heart of God. It will not
be a solo; it will not ba n duet; It will
not be n quintette; but an Innnmurablo
host before the throne, crying, "Salva
tion unto our God and unto tho Lamb."
They crowd all tho temples; they bond
over tho battlements; they fill nil tho
heights and depths nnd lengths and
breadths of Heaven with their hosan
nas.
When the people were taken Into tho
temple of Diana It wsis such u brilliant
room that they wero always put on
their guard. Somo people had lost
their sight by just looking on tho bril
liancy of that room, und so tho janitor
when lie brought u stranger to tho door
and let him in would ulwuys charge
him, "Take heed of your eyes."
)1 when I think of the song that goes
up around the throno of God. so jubi
lant, many voiced, multitudinous, I feel
like haying, "Take heed of your cars."
It is so' loud a song. It is so blessed an
anthem. They sing n rock song, say
ing "Who Is Ho that sheltered us In the
wilderness, andshudowedusin n weary
land? And tho chorus comes In:
"Christ, tho shadow of a rock In a
weary land."
Thev slnir n star song, saying, "Who
Is He that guided us through tho thick
night, and when all other lights went
out, urosu In tho sky the morning star,
pouring light on tho soul's darkness?"
And tho chorus will como In: "Christ,
tho morning star, shining on tho soul's
darkness." Thoy will sing a flower
song, saying: "Who Is Ho that bright
ened all our way und breathed sweet
ness upon our soul nnd bloomed through
frost nnd tempest?" und thu chorus will
come In, "Christ, the Illy of tho valley,
blooming through frost nnd tempest
Thev slnir n water song, saving: "Who
Is Ho that gleamed to us from tho
frowning crag und lightened tho dark
ravlno of trouble and brought cooling
to tho temples aud refreshment to
tho lip, nnd was n fountain in
tho midst of the wilderness?" nnd
then the chorus will como In: "Christ
tho fountain In tho midst of tho wilder
ness." Aiy. irienus, win you join umi

of this city by tho 'notorious Dalto
gang.
The safe In the express car was blown
open und robbed of Its contents.
Cnpt J. J. Kinney, chief of tho de
tective force of tho Missouri, Kansas &
Texas, and L. A. Flore, of the Indian
police, and two doctors from Adair wero
shot while attempting to protect tho
company's property, but none of them
were seriously injured.
The exact amount of money socurcd
by tho robbers Is not known.
Tho robbers made good their escape.
Tho truln was hold up at tho tauk
just south of Adair, and when tho en
gineer attempted to step on tho foot
board, he was confronted by two men
with drawn revolvers and told to re
main quiet or he would havo his brains

There wcro six men in the gang, nnd
two remained to guard tho engineer
and fireman whllo tho others wutehed

uhend of tho robbers and break down
tho door, nnd came ncur being killed by
the messenger, who shot several times

Cnpt. Kinney nnd the Indian police
man were in the car, as thoro had been
u rumor of troublo, und they wero pre
pared to make n desperate fight, but
were wounded before they wero able to
do anything towards dofendlng tho

When the robbers effected nn en

the safe, and wasted no time but at
onco blew it open. They hastily grabbed
up nil tho contents nnd then went oir,
telling the engineer to go ahead and
not stop until ho got to the next htatlon.
When tho attack wns made there was
a fuslludo between the robbers awl tho
