The following letter from Rev.
.Ins. Shopp.'ird we publish by request ,
for the benefit of many of bin old
friends , who formerly knew him
when pastor of the Broken How
ohurch :
La Junta , Colo. , Juno 2 , ' 00
First Haptist Church , Hrokon Uow ,
Nebr. Dear Brethren : It IH with
great pleasure that 1 send to you
my heart f lt grueling nnd best
wishes. I deeply regret that I can
not bu present for reasons well
known to most of you. Hut 1 can
do the next best thing. I can
tfrito you a short epistle and pray
that God will bless you all.
I congratulate you first on hav
ing such a good pan tor. 1 have
never met him but have heard of
him through otheis. 1 think it is
an advantage to him and you , that
ho is an M. D. I Und in my ex
perience that -many times when
my parishioners had what might be
called the blues and as a minister I
tried to diagnose the case from n
npirilual standpoint and prescribe n
remcdv and afterward found out
that they ought to have gone to an
M. D. and had NOIIIR liver pills or
sotnu other remedy to uuil the case.
VTour pastor of course could disiurn
at oneo and dose every Elijah that
ho finds under n juniper tree. I
congratulate you on your orthodoxy
as a church. I see that you intend
to ordain jour deacons. This is
right So many of our churches are
horotodox in this matter. I think
f the Bible and the Bible only is
the rule of our I'ai h and practice ,
wo ought to put it in practice in
ordaining deacons. These are
times when so many of our rain in
tern think it Hinrt to say they do
not believe all the Bible was in
spired and to deny its authorship
and many deny Christ's quality
with Gotl. 1 nay stand by the old
book and its divine author will
ftand by us.
1 congratulate the church upon
having such a siucossful voyage
amid all the tempestuous waves that
have bi ut against it threatening its
destruction. Many other churches
and also business houses have been
swamped , but the Broken Bow
church stood abreast of all dangers
and still points her prow 'toward
the point of her destination. No
power cnn wreck the old gospel
craft when Christ is in it. Nations
have been submerged , civilizations
have gone to the dust but thu true
ohurch sails on fair as the moon ,
olear as the sun and terrible as an
army with banners.
Though truiiblux nssiill and lUnKurn affright ,
Though friends should nil full , and foci ) should
unite ;
Yet ( inn sccuree UH whatever betldo ,
The Scriptures nuauro UH , the Lord will provide.
Ton know brethren the history of
the ptisl , how the early ohuroh was
tried severely. Cruelty , indignity ,
emoluments , confiscation of goods ,
banished , condemned to minoH ,
racks , faggots , cauldrons of boiled
oil , crucifixion , yes , everything that
their infernal genius could devise
and sohome , but the old ship wont
on and rode above the waves of
diabolical energy that would orush
it , above the flame that would con
sume it more majestic and invincible
than over. Then came an under
current ot heresy , which agitated
the waters for a lime. False beliefs
as to the nature of Christ and man's
responsibility. At times the current
seemed almost irresistible and the
timbers seemed to bo slrainod , but
on she rode defying all dangers as
long as Christ was on board. Then
came n period of darkness , gross
darkness the darknens of ignorance ,
and the waves seemed to be lashed
into fury and foam , the froth of
destruction way oil the mouth of the
wave , old treasures of learning nnd
art wore swept away , the old ship
was almost enveloped in obscurity
but now and again the old fog-horn
was heard enough to lot us know
thai she was sailing around jagged
rooks and Ireachcrons shoals , nnd
songs in the night break forth :
Jesun Savior pilot roe ,
Over life's tompeatuoiis eea ;
Unknown waves before me roll.
llkllng rocks and trnachoroua HhoBln ;
Chart and compans conio from thee ,
ilefiia Savior pilot mo.
This was not enough. A strong
east wind of infidelity swt-pl over
llio main , Hie waters roared and the
wind howled and limid passengers
feared and trembled as Gibbon ,
Voltaire and Choslerfiold pointed to
her strained timbers aud said she is
going down , but contrary to their
blatanl predictions , she rode upon
the orested wave with bulk heat
uiiHcarrod and made Voltair's press
Buberviont to its purpose aud his
room a coaling station and turnoc
Chesterfield's parlor into a sailors
Bethel.
Dear brethren , the present ago i
one of sceptical tendencies. Prone
learning refuses to crown Jesus a
Lord , scientific rationalism laughs
at the miracles of our Lord ; moderi
thoughl if wriling a now Ihoology
which may find favor at Andover
but not with almighty God. Mus
wo change the ships tnoklo ant
turn her prow ? No. She will nebo
bo engulfed. The waves will lift *
nr into prominenconiid diMtinclion.
Our hope is not in the abriitncc of
anger bill in llio prcriononof Christ.
Tides of frivolity nnd , worldli-
esn will sweep you away unloHH
on are anchored firm. Remember
irotbren that our ship is n ship on
oyage and not n ship in the harbor.
Homo people think that it is an ob-
crvnlion orjr where they cnn sit
nirnnticd at the passing scenery ,
Hhers think it lo bo n pull man
looping car , where parties wait
very call and bidding nnd whom
they can sleep nwny tlio precious
hourH of life , but this in simply a
delusion. It ib n ship on voyage
nnd nil passenger * nro mariners.
jot us be faithful to our captain
and obey orders for very soon llio
cry will go up.
Drop the anchor , f irl the sail ,
Wu are safe within the vail
My earnest prayer is that the
baptist church al Broken Bow may
> o among the number th it shall
t-'p off the old ship , when wo roaoh
lie rlioreand ) when the roll is called ,
hat none shall be mihsiug or
inhamed of their record. ( Head
Miillippinns 4:1 : 14 , and 2d 1'otor ,
: l11 ) I trust that you will remcm-
> cr me in your prryern lhat if it bo
God's will my sightmay b i restored
o mo nnd thai again I may go forth
oiling the old old story ot .lesiiH
uid his love. For thu present I

I remain your brother in Christ ,
JAMKS Siucri-jLitn.
Senator Stowarl , of Nevada , lolls
this story : "My first and only ox-
peicnco as n gambler was in San
Francisco in the spring of 1850
. ' was a youngster , and had wan
dered in lo a resort called the Kl
Dorado , at which all sorts of games
were in progress , nnd on the tables
wore piled up huge stacks of gold
nud silver coin. I looked on as n
green youth would , nnd was
ntlraoled lo a roulello wheel. A
miner was boiling $100 at evry turn
and luck Boomed lo come his way.
[ didn't have very much mouov ,
but concluded I'd lake a chnnco
|
and fitarted m with a silver quarter
following every bet of Iho mimr. 1
ran Ibis 25-oont piece up to # 25 ,
ind , though elated with my fortune
obeyed the prompting of prudence
and quit. As 1 wont out of Iho place
[ beared an old gambler say : Iho
sucker will bo back inside of an
lour nnd lose it nil. ' That remark
for all I knew , had a great influence
on my after career , for I not only
resolved not to go back , but never
, o fight any game of chance in the
'uluro. So I quit the gambling
hen and there , and kepi my ro-
> lution. "
Silas Elder , of Kansas , who in
erving in the Philippines , wrilos
lomo : " Wo were all crazy lo gel on
ho firing line when we first came
lero ; but lei mo loll you , there isn't
t man but what now would rather
lay in town. The women hero all
moke cigars , and are quite liberal.
They are very friendly , aud will sot
ip'the cigars lo anyone they take
a liking to. 'Iho unlives are crazy
o own a gun of HOIIIO kind , nnd ii I
iad my revolver hero it weld be an
easy matter to got $50 or $75 for
t. I havent seen n snake since I
lave bi'i'ii hero , but thousands
of lizards * , they grow from four
nuhes to two feet long , and some
of them 3re horrid looking things
in mailing letters out here the
very best envelopes ohould bo used
double envelopes really are best ;
the distance is so far thai unless
this is observed the letters arrive
with the ends all broken and torn.
Wo are not the least homesick ,
and are enjoying the bo-l of
hoalth. "
