WASHINGTON , Oct. 11.-Judge Brad-
Icy of the district supreme court today -
day ordered the discharge from cuss -
s tody of Captain Gcorge A. Armes , who
was arrested on the order of Licuten-
ant General Schofield , just prior to the
, Tatter's retirement from the command
bf the army , fcr having written him
an insulUttg letter. The judge said :
"The arrest and taking of Armes into
custody , carrying him away from his
home to barracks and holding him in
close arrest without any antecedent
charge of crime preferred in any way
' - against him was and is unjust , unlawful -
ful , arbitrary , tyrannical and capricious -
cious on the part of General Schofield
in whatever capacity he acted , whether -
er acting as lieutenant general or acting -
ing secretary of war. The petitioner
is diseharged. "
The judge then went into the matter
at considerable length and said : ' "No
I charge was preferred against Armes at
the time of his arrest , no crime has
- been charged since , and for the offenses -
fenses alleged , no arrest was neces-
sary. The arrest and confinement
were unlawful and oppressive. As the
offense charged would upon substantiation
tiation result only in reprimand , suspension -
pension or dismissal , the possession of
the body of the accused was not necessary -
sary to carry out the charges , as
would have been the case if imprison-
- nlent or death was to be the sentence. "
Speaking of the president's power in
army matters , the judge said : "The
president of the United States is corn-
, - wander-in-chief of the officers of the
i army on the retired list. This function -
tion of the chief executive , however ,
' is unaccompanied by harrowing care
t or weighty responsibility. IIis title
of commander-in-chief , so far as it re-
lutes to retired ofiicers , is shorn of all
power to impose duties , and appears to
be an empty name. "
The judge advocate general of the
war department has determined to
take an appeal from the decision of
Judge Bradley. This will carry the
matter to the court of appeals of the
District of Columbia.
ELOPED WITH A MINISTER.
Miss Salllo Bush Married to Rev. James

QuINCY , Ill , Oct. 11.-Rev. James
Preston Green , a Presbyterian minister -
ter at Shelbina , Mo. , was married here
yesterday to Sallie Bush , a wealthy
girl of Monroe City. Miss Bush has
been kept a prisoner by her father ,
although she is of age. He objected
to Green because he was poor. Twice
the couple tried to elope , and the
groom had marriage licenses in three
counties.
Last Sunday the girl got away from
the house that her father had placed
Tier in and came to Quincy to visit
fiicnus. Green came to a ministers'
conference here. He heard that Miss
i Bush was in the city , drove up to her
stopping place in a hack : and carried
htr off. They crossed the river and
, tvcre married by a county justice near
West Qumey on a license that the
groom obtained several weeks ago.
The bride is :2 years old , pretty , and
has a large fortune in her own right.
MISSIONARIES IN NEED.
The Congregational Uomn SocietyIu Temporary -

. _ NEW YoRK , Oct. 11.The Congregational -
tional home Missionary society is in
lebt to the banks $150,000 , its treasury
Is empty and , inasmuch as only $100-
V of the indebtedness is secured by
collateral , the banks have refused further -
ther unsecured loans. The salaries -
ries of the home missionaries were
due October 1. Failure to receive
them means in many cases borrowing
of local banks at high rates of interest.
The society is absolutely depeudent for
time time being upon the gifts of
:1iurches and individuals. Tife present -
ent situation is due not only to the
bard times , but to the chronic omhis-
sion of Congregational churches to
take their missionarycollections in the
summer and early fall. The severity
r time crisis is great , but temporary.

SA2 FnAacisco , Oct. L-Theodore
Durrant , assistant superintendent of
Emanuel Baptist church Sunday
school , was placed ou the stand yesterday -
terday for the purpose of convincing
the jury that he did not murder
Blanche Lament April 3. With the
same coolness that has characterized
his conduct since his arrest he denied
the principal allegations that have
been made against him by the most
V important witnesses for the prosecu-
tion. IIis answers were always brief
and to the point and by many were
interpreted to mean that lie had
studied his part wU before taking the
stand. Questions that would ordinarily -
ly case a visible impression on a guilty
man were answered by Durrant with
the utmost unconcern. Even when
Attorney Deuprey asked him if on the
d of April or at any other time he
murdered or participated in murdering -
ing Blanche Lament , the prisoner
.coolly replied in the negative.

A POINT-BLANK QUESTION TO
NON-BELIEVERS.
All who have Not Yet Accepted the
Faith of Jesus Christ' Asked the
Itoasun Why-"is Thine heart Right ? "
-I &Ins x:15.
ITH mettled horses
at full speed , for
.6 he was celebrated
for fast driving ,
i
Jehu , the warrior
I and king , returns
from battle. Buts
seeing Jehonadab ,
s an acquaintance , by
the wayside , he
shouts , "W h o a !
whoa ! " to the lathered -
ered span. Then leaning over to Jeho-
nadab , Jehu salutes him in the words of
the text-words not more appropriate
.for that hour and that place , than for
this hour and. place : "Is thine heart
right ? "
I should like to hear of your physical
health. Well myself , I like to have
everybody else well ; and so might ask ,
is your eyesight right , your hearing
right , your nerves right , your lungs
right , your entire body right ? But I
am busy to-day taking diagnosis of the
more Important spiritual conditions. I
should like to hear of your financial we-
fare. I want everybody to have plenty
of money , ample apparel , large storehouse -
house , and comfortable residence ; and
I might ask , is your business right , your
income right , your worldly surroundings -
ings right ? But what are these financial
questions compared with the Inquiry as
to whether you have been able to pay
your debts to God ; as to whether you are
Insured for eternity ; as to whether you
are ruining yourself by the long-credit
system of the soul ? I have known men
to have no more than one loaf of bread
at a time , and , yet to own a government
bond of heaven worth more than the
whole material universe.
The question I ask you to-day is not
in regard to your habits. I make no
inquiry about your integrity , or your
chastity , or your sobri't I do not
mean to stand on the ' he of the
gate and ring the bell ; : , lming up
the steps , I open the dour and come
to the private apartment of the soul ;
and with the earnestness of a man that
must give an account for this day's
work , I cry out , 0 man , 0 woman , immortal -
mortal , is thine heart right ?
I will not insult you by an argument
to prove that we are by nature all
wrong. If there be a factory explosion
and the smokestack be upset , and the
wheels be broken in two , and the engine -
gine unjointed , and the ponderous bars
be twisted , and a man should look in
and say that nothing was the matter ,
you would pronounce him a fool. Well ,
it needs no acumen to discover that our
nature is all atwist and askew and
unjoiuted. The thing doesn't work
right. The biggest trouble we have in
the world is with our souls. Men sometimes -
times say that , though their lives may
not be just right , their heart is all
right. Impossible. A farmer never puts
the poorest apples on top of his barrel ;
nor does the merchant place the mean-
eat goods in his show window. The best
part of us is our outward life. I do not
stop to discuss whether v , e all fell in
Adam , for we have been our own Adam ,
and have all eaten of the forbidden
fruit , and have been turned out of the
paradise of holiness and peace ; and
though the flaming sword that stood
at the gate to keep us out has changed
position and comes behind to drive us
in , we will not go.
The Bible account of us is not exaggerated -
aggerated when it says that we are
poor and wretched and miserable and
blind and naked. Poor : the wretch
that stands shivering on our doorstep
on a cold day is not so much in need of
bread as we are of spiritual help. Blind ;
why , the man whose eyes perished : n
the powder blast , and who for these ten
years has gone feeling his way from
street to street , is not in such utter
darkness as we. Naked : why , there is
not one rag of holiness left to hide the
shame of our sin. Sick : why , the leprosy -
rosy has eaten into the head and the
heart and the hands and the feet ; and
the marasmus of an everlasting wasting
away has aleady seized on some of us.
But the meanest thing for a man to do
is to discourse about an evil without
pointing a way to have it remedied. I
speak of the thirst of your hot tongue ,
only that I may show you the hiving
stream that drops crystalline and sparkling -
ling from the Rock of Ages , and pours
a river of gladness at your feet. If I
show you the rents in your coat , it is
only because the door of God's wardrobe -
robe now swings open , and here is a
robe , white with the fleece of the Lamb
of God , and of a cut and make that an
angel would not be ashamed to wear.
If'I snatch from you the black , mouldy
bread that you are munching , It is only
give you the bread made out of the
Finest wheat that grows on the celestial
hills , and baked ! n the fires of the Cross ;
and one crumb of which would be
enough to make all heaven a banquet.
Hear it , one and all ; and tell it to your
friends when you go home , that the
Lord Jesus Christ can make the heart
right.
First we need a repenting heart. If
for the last ten , twenty , or forty years '
of life , we have been going on in the
wrong way , it is time that we turned
around and started in the opposite di-
f
rection. If we offend our friends we , ,
are glad to apologize. God is our best
friend , and yet how many of us have
never apologized for the wrongs we '
have done him ! i
There is nothing that we so much
need to get rid of as sin. It is a horrible -
ble black monster. It polluted Eden.
It killed Christ. It has blasted the
world. Men keep dogs in kennels , and
. . ' ' . ri
S
T S , wi c v r
rabbits in a warren , and cattle iri a pen.
What a man that would be who would
shut them up in his parlor ? But this
foul dog of sin , and these herds of trans-
gresslon , wq have entertained for many
a long year in our heart , which should
be the cleanest brightest 4room in all
our nature. Out with the vile herd !
Begone , ye befoulers of an Immortal
nature !
Turn out the beasts and let Chrht
come in ! A heathen came to an early
Christian , who had the reputation of
curing diseases , The Christian said ,
"You must have all your idols de-
stroycd. The heathen gave to the
Christian the key to his house , that ho
might go in and destroy the idols. He
battered to pieces all he saw , but still
the man did not get well. The Christian -
tian said to , him , "There must be some
idol in your house not yet destroyed. "
The heathen confessed that there was
one idol of beaten gold that he could
not bear to give up. After awhile , when
that was destroyed , in answer to the
prayer of the Christian , the sick man
got well.
Many a man has awakened in his
dying hour to find his sins all about
him. They clambered up on the right
side of the bed , and on the left side ,
and over the head-board , and over the
foot-board , and horribly devoured the
soul.
Repent ! the voice celestial cries ,
Nor longer dare delay ;
The wretch that scorns the mandate
dies ,
And meets a fiery day.
Again , we need a believing heart. A
good many years ago a weary one went
up one of the hills of Asia Minor , and
with two logs on his back cried out to
all the world , offering to carry their
sins and sorrows. They pursued him.
They slapped him in the face. They
mocked him. When he groaned they
groaned. They shook their fists at
him. They spat on him. They hounded -
ed him as though he were a wild beast
His of the sick his
healing , sight-giv-
ing to the blind , his mercy to the outcast -
cast , silenced not the revenge of the
world. His prayers and benedictions
were lost in that whirlwind of execration -
tion : "Away with him ! Away with
him ! "
Ah ! it was not' merely the two pieces
of wood that he carried ; it was the
transgressions of the race , the anguish
of the ages , the wrath of God , the sorrows -
rows of hell , the stupendous interests
of an unending eternity. No wonder
his back bent. No wonder the blood
started from every pore. No wonder
that he crouched under a torture that
made the sun faint , and the everlasting
hills tremble , and the dead rush up in
their winding-sheets as lie cried : "If
it be possible , let this cup pass from
me. " But the cup did not pass. None
to comfort.
There he hangs ! What has that
hand done that it should be thus
crushed in the palm ? It has been healing -
ing the lame and wiping away tears.
What has that foot been doing that it
should be so lacerated ? It has been
going about doing good. Of what has
the victim been guilty ? Guilty of saving -
ing a world. Tell me , ye heavens and
earth , was there ever such anpther
criminal ? Was there ever such a
crime ? On that hill of carnage , that
sunless day , amid those howling rioters -
ers , may not your sins and mine have
perished ? I believe it. Oh , the ransom -
som has been paid. Those arms of Jesus -
sus were stretched out so wide , that
when he brought them together again
they might embrace the world. Oh ,
that I might , out of the blossoms of the
spring , or the flaming foliage of the
autumn , make one wreath for my Lord !
Oh , that all the triumphal arches of the
world could be swung in one gateway ,
where the Bing of Glory might come
in ! Oh , that all the harps and trumpets -
pets and organs of earthly music
might , in one anthem , speak his praise !
But what were earthly flowers to him
who walketh amid the snow of the
white lilies of heaven ? What were
arches of early masonary to him who
hath about his throne a rainbow spun
out of everlasting sunshine ? What
were all earthly music to him when the
hundred and forty and four thousand
on one side , and cherubim and seraphim -
phim and archangels stand on the other
side , and all the space between is filled
with the doxologies of eternal jubilee-
the hosanna of a redeemed earth , the
hallelujah of unfallen angels , song after -
ter song rising abcut the throne of God
and of the Lamb ? In that pure , high
place , let him hear us. Stop ! harps of
heaven , that our poor cry may be heard.
Dh , my Lord Jesus ! it will not hurt thee
for one hour to step out from the shining -
ing throng. They will make it all up
when thout goest back again. Come
hither , 0 blessed One , that we may kiss
thy feet. Our hearts , too long withheld -
held , we now surrender into thy keep-
ing. When thou guest back tell it to
all the immortals that the lost are
found , and let the Father's house ring
with the music and the dance.
They have some old wine in heaven ,
not used except in rare festivities. In
this world , those who are accustomed
to use wine on great occasions bring
out the beverage and say , "This wine is
thirty years old , " or "forty years old. " -
But the wine of heaven is more than
eighteen centuries old. It was prepared -
pared at the time when Christ trod
the wine press alone. When such
grievous sinners as we come back , methinks -
thinks the chamberlain of heaven cries
out to the servants , "This is unusual
joy ! Bring up from the vaults of heaven -
en that old wine. Fill all the tankards.
Let all the white-robed guests drink to
the immortal health of those new-born
sons and daughters of the Lord Al-
mighty. " "There is joy in heaven
among the angels of God over one sinner -
ner that repenteth ; " and God grant
that that one may be you !
Again , to have a right heart it must
be a forgiving heart. An old writer
says , "To return good for evil is Godlike -
like ; good for good is man-like ; evil for
f
good devil-like. " Which of these tia
tures have we ? Christ will have nothing -
ing to do with us as long as we keep
any old grudge. We have all been
cheated and lied about There are people -
ple who dislike us so much that if we
should come down to poverty and. disgrace -
grace , they would say , "Good for him !
Didn't I tell you so ? " They do not understand -
derstand us. UnsanctIfled human nature -
ture says , "Wait till you get a good
crack at him , and when at last you find
him in a tight place , give it to him.
Flay him alive. No quarter. Leave
not a rag of reputation. Jump on him
with both feet. Pay him in his own
coin-sarcasm for sarcasm , scorn for
scorn , abuse for abuse. " But , my
friends , that it' not the right kind of
heart. No man ever did so mean a
thing towards us we have done toward
God. And if we cannot forgive others ,
how can we expect God to forgive us ?
Thousands of men have been kept out
of heaven by an unforgiving heart.
Hero is some one who says , "I will forgive -
give that man the wrong ho did me
about that house and lot ; I will forgive
that man who overreached me in a
bargain ; I will forgive that man who
sold me a shoddy overcoat ; I forgive
them-all but one. That man I cannot
forgive. The villain-I can hardly
keep my hands off him. If my going
to heaven depends on my forgiving
him , then I will stay out. " Wrong feel-
ing. If a man lie to me once , I am not
called to trust him again. If a man betray -
tray me once , I am not called to put
confidence in him again- Rat . > would
have no rest if I could not offer a sincere -
cere prayer for the temporal and everlasting -
lasting welfare of all men , whatever
meanness and outrage they have inflicted -
flicted upon me. If you want to get
your heart right , strike a match and
burn up all your old grudges , and blow
the ashes away. "If you forgive not
men their trespasses , neither will your
heavenly Father forgive you your tres-
passes. "
An old Christian black woman was
going along the streets of New York
with a basket of apples that she had
for sale. A rough sailor ran against
her and upset the basket , and stood
back expecting to hear her scold frightfully -
fully , but she stooped down and picked
up the apples , and said , "God forgive
you , my son , as I do. " The sailor saw
the meanness of what he had done , and
felt in his pocket for his money , and
insisted that she should take it all.
Though she was black , ho called her
mother , and said , "Forgive me , mother ,
I will never do anything so mean
again. " Ah ! there is a power in a forgiving -
giving spirit to overcome all hardness.
There is no way of conquering men like
that of bestowing upon them your pardon -
don , whether they will accept it or not.
Again , a right heart is an expectant
heart. It is a poor business to be building -
ing castles in the air. Enjoy what you
have now. Don't spoil your comfort in
the small house because you expect a
larger one. Don't fret about your income -
come when it is three or four dollars
per day because you expect to have , after -
ter awhile , ten dollars per day ; or ten
thousand a year because you expect it
to be twenty thousand a year. But
about heavenly things , the more we
think the better. Those castles are not
in the air , but on the hills , and we have
a deed of them in our possession. I like
to see a man all full of heaven. He
talks heaven. He sings heaven. He
prays heaven. He dreams heaven.
Some of us in our sleep have had the
good place open to us. We saw the
pinnacles in the sky. We heard the
click of the hoofs of the white horses
on which victors rode , and the clapping
of the cymbals of eternal triumph. And
while in our sleep we were glad that
all our sorrows were over , and burdens
done with , the throne of God grew
whiter and whiter , till we opened our
eyes and saw that it was only the sun
of earthly morning shining on our p11-
low. To have a right heart , you need
to be filled with this expectancy. It
would make your privations and annoyances -
ances more bearable.
Is thy heart right ? What question
can compare with this in importance ?
It is a business question. Do you not
realize that you will soon have to go
out of that store , that you will soon
have to resign that partnership , that
soon among all the millions of dollars
worth of goods that are sold , you will
not have the handling of a yard of
cloth , or a pound of sugar , or a penny
worth of anything ; that soon , if a conflagration -
flagration should start at Central Parlr
and sweep everything to the Battery ,
it would not disturb you ; that
soon , if every cashier should abscond ,
and every insurance company should
fail , it would not affect you ? What are
the questions that stop this side the
grave , compared with the questions that
reach beyond it ? Are you making
losses that are to be everlasting ? Are
you making purchases for eternity ?
Are you jobbing for time when you
might be wholesaling for eternity ?
What question of the store is so broad
at the base , and so altitudinous , and so
overwhelming as the question , "Is thy
heart right ? "
