N THE Colteoun : :
1
at Rome , wbce per -
secutors used to let
out the half-starv
ed lions to cat up
Christians , there is
now planted : the
figure of a crocs.
And I rejoice to
know that : the ! up- :
right piece of wood I
nailed to a trans
verse piece has become the symbol not
more of suffering than of victory. It
Is of Christ the conqueror that my text
Bpoalcs. As a kingly warrior , having
subdued \ an empire , might divide the
palaces : and mansions and cities and
valleys and mountains among his offi-
cers , EO Christ is going to divide up
nil the earth and all the heavens among
liia people and you I will have to take
our share if we are strong in faith and
j
strong in our Christian loyalty for my
text declares it : "He shall divide the
spoil ( with the strong. "
The capture of this : round planet for
I Christ is not so much of a job as you
I might imagine , when the Church takes :
I off its coat and rolls up its sleeves for
i the work , as it will. There are six
j , teen ] hundred millions of people no ain
I ! the world , and four hundred and fifty
: ! millions are Christians. Subtract four
: i hundred and fifty millions who are
I I Chrittions from the sixteen hundred
I ; ; millions , and there are eleven hundred
I and fifty millions left. Divide the
j I eleven hundred and fifty millions who
: fire not Christians by the four hundred
! I and fifty who are Christians and you
i will find that we shall have to average
: I less than three srjuls each , brought by
UH into the kingdom of God , to have
j I I the whole world redeemed. Certainly ,
I I with the church rising up to its full
duly no Christian will be willing to
bring less than three souls into the
kingdom of God. I hope , and pray
Almighty God that I may bring more
i than three. I know evangelists who
have already brought fifty thousand :
each for the kingdom of God. There
I fare two hundred thousand people whose
i one and only and absorbing business
, in the world is to save souls. When
you take these things into considera
I tion rind that the Christians will have
I ' I to average the bringing of. only three
I j souls each into the kingdom of our
. Lord all impossibility vanishes from
this omnipotent crusade. Why , I know l
I. a Sabbath School teacher who for many
, years has been engaged in training the
I young , and she has had five different
classes : , and they averaged seven to a
class , and they were all converted , and
five times seven are thirty-five , as near
ns I can calculate. So that she brought
her three into the kingdom of God and
had thirty-two to spare. My : grand-
mother prayed her children into the
kingdom of Christ , and her grandchildren -
dren and I hope all her great-grand-
children , for God remembers a prayer
seventy-five years old , as though it
were only a minute old ; and so she
brought her three into the kingdom of
God and had more than one hundred
to spare. Besides that , through the
telephone and the telegraph , this whole
world within a few years , will be
brought within compass of ten minutes
Besides that , omnipotence , omnipresence -
ence , and omniscience are presiding in
this matter of the world's betterment ,
and that takes the question of the
world's salvation out of the impossibili-
I ties into the possibilites , and then cut
I - -of the possibilities into the probabili
I ties and then out of the probabilities
into the certainties. The building of
the Union Pacific Railroad from ocean
to ocean was a greater undertaking
than the girdling : of the earth with the
Cos ; el ; for one enterprise depended up-
on the human arm , while Die other depends -
pends : upon almightiness.
Do I really mean that all the earth
will surrender to Christ ? Yes. How
about the uninviting portions ? Will
Greenland be evangelized ? The possi-
bility is that after a few more hundred
brave lives are dashed out among the
icebergs. that great refrigerator , the
Polar region will be given up to the
-walrus and bear , and that the innabi-
tants will come down by invitation in-
to tolerable climates or those climates
may soften ; and , as it has been posi-
I tively demonstrated that the Arctic region -
I gion was once a blooming garden and
.
I \ fruitful field , these regions may
I change climate and again be a bloom-
ing : garden and a fruitful field. It is
: proved beyond controversy by German
I .and American scientists that the Arc-
I tic regions were the first portions of
i this world inhabitable ; the world hot
beyond human endurance , those regions
" were , of course , the first to be cool
enough for human foot and human
lung. : It was positively proved that the
Arctic region was a tropical climate.
Prof. Heer , of Zurich , says the remains
of flowers have been found in the Arc-
t 1 tic region , showing it was like Mexico
. '
for climate , and it is found that the
Arctic was the mother region from
which all the flowers descended. Prof.
I Wallace says the remains of all styles
of animal life are found in the Arctic
regions , including those animals that
can live only in warm climates. Now
that Arctic region which has been
demonstrated by flora and fauna and
da geological argument to have been as
full of vegetation and life as our Flor-
ida , may be turned back to its original
; ( bloom and glory , or it will be shut up
, as a museum of crystals for curiosity-
'I seekers once in awhile to visit. But
f
Arctic and Antarctic , in some shape , will
r./ belong to the Redeemer's realm.

j I "vVTiat about other unproductive or
repulsive regions All the deserts will
I be irrigated , the waters will be forced
up to the great American desert between - '
twcen here and the Pacific by machinery - I
ery now known or yet to bo invented ,
and , as Great Salt Lake City has no
rain and could not raise an apple or a
I bushel : of wheat in a hundred years
without ! artificial help , but is now !
through such means one great garden ,
so all the unproductive parts of all the
continents will be turned into harvest
I fields and orchards. A half-dozen De
Lesseps will furnish the world with all
the canals needed , and will change the
.
course of rivers and open new lakes
and the great Sahara desert will be cut
up into farms with an astonishing yield
of bushels ! to the acre. The marsh will
be drained of its waters and cured of its
malaria. I saw what was for many
years called the Black Swamp of
Ohio , 'its ' chief crop chills and fevers ,
but now , by the tiles put into the
ground to carry off the surplus mois-
ture transformed into the richest and
healthiest ] of regions. The God who
wastes nothing , I think , means that
this world , from pole to pole , has come
to perfection of foliage and fruitage. For
that reason he keeps ! the earth running
through ] space though so many fires
are blazing down in its timbers and
so : : : many meteoric terrors have threat
ened to dash it to pieces. As soon as :
the earth is completed Christ will divide -
vide ' it _ up among the good. The reason
he does not divide it now is because : it
is i not done. A kind ! father will not divide -
vide the apple among his children until
the apple is ripe. In fulfilment of the
New Testament promise , "The creel : > :
sballjnhcrit ! the earth " and the : : prom-
ise of the Old ' { Testament "He shall di -
vide' the spoil with the strong , " the
world will be apportioned to those
worthy to possess it.
It is not so now. In this country ,
capable of holding , feeding , clothing !
and sheltering twelve hundred million
people , and where we have only sixty : : ;
million inhabitants , we have two . mil
lion who cannot get honest work , and
with their families an aggregation of
five.millions that are on the verge of
starvation. Something wrong , most
certainly. In some way , there will be
a new apportionment. Many : ; of the
millionaire estates will crack to pieces
on the dissipations of grand children ,
and then dissolve into the possession
of the masses who now have an insuffi-
ciency.
What , you say , will become of the
expensive and elaborate buildings now
devoted to debasing amusements ?
They will become schools , art galleries ,
museums , gymnasiums , and churches.
The world is already getting disgusted
with many of these amusements , and
no wonder. What an importation of
unclean theatrical stuff we have within
the last few years had brought to our
shores ! And professors of religion !
patronizing such things ! Having sold
out to the devil , why don't you deliver
the goods and go over to him publicly
body , mind and soul , and withdraw
your name from Christian churches ,
and say : "Know all the world by these
presents that I am a patron of uncleanness -
ness and a child of hell ! ! " Sworn to be
the Lord's , you are perjurers.
If you think these offenses are to go
on forever , you do not know who the
Lord is. God will not wait ) for the Day
of Judgment. All these palaces of sin
will become palaces of righteousness.
They will come into the possession of
those strong for virtue and strong : : for
God. "He shall divide the spoil with
the strong. "
If my text be not a deception , but the
eternal truth , then the time is coming
when all the farms will be owned by
Christian farmers , and all the com-
merce controlled by Christian mer-
chants , and all the authority held by
Christian officials , and all the ships
commanded by Christian captains , and
all the universities under the instruc-
tion of Christian professors ; Christian
kings , Christian presidents , Christian
governors , Christian mayors , Christian
common council. Yet , what a scouring
out ! what an upturning ! what a demoli
tion ! what a resurrection must precede
this 'new apportionment !
I do not underrate the enemy. Julius
Caesar got his greatest victory by fully
estimating the vastness of his foes and
prepared his men for their greatest tri
umph by saying : "Tomorrow King
Juba will be here with thirty thousand :
horses , one hundred thousand skir
mishers and three hundred elephants. "
I do not underrate the vast forces of
Sin and Death ; but do you know who
commands us ? Jehovah-jireh. And
the reserve corps behind us are all the
armies of heaven and earth , with hurri-
cane and thunderbolt. The good work
of the world's redemption is going
on every minute. Never so many
splendid men and glorious women on
the side of right as to-day. Never so
many good people as now. Diogenes
has been spoken of as a wise man because -
cause he went with a lantern at noon-
day , saying he was looking for an
honest man. If he had turned his lan-
tern toward himself . he might have
discovered a crank. Honest men ; by the
ten thousand ! Through the Interna-
tional Series of Sunday School lessons
the next generation all through
Christendom are going to be wiser than
any generation since the world stood.
The kingdom is coming. God can do it.
No housewife with a chamois cloth ever
polished a silver teaspoon with more
ease than Christ will rub off from this
world the tarnish , and brighten it up
till it glows like heaven ; and then the
glorious apportionment ! for my text
is reinforced by a score of other texts
when it says of Christ : "He shall divide -
vide the spoil with the stron . "
"But , " you say , "that this : : is pleasant
to think of for others , but before that
time I shall have passed up into an-
other existence , and I shall get no advantage -
vantage from that new apportionment. "
Ah , you have only driven me to the

I other more exciting and transporting 1 j
consideration , and that is , that Christ :
I is going to divide up heaven in the I'
I same way. There are old estates In the
celestial world that have been in the !
possession of the inhabitants for thou I
sands of years , and they shall remain I
as they are. There are old family
mansions in heaven filled with whole
generations of kindred , and they shall
never be driven out. Many of the vic-
tors from earth have already got their
palaces , and they are pointed out to
those newly arrived. Soon after our. I
getting there we will ask to be shown
the Apostolic residences , and ask where j E 1
does Paul live , and John ; and shown
the patriarchial residences , and shall
say : " ; ' /here ' does Abraham live , or
Jacob ? " and shown the martyr resi-
dences and say : "Where does John
Huss Jive , and Ridley ? " : We will want
to see the boulevards where the chariots I
of conquerors roll. I will want to see I
the gardens where the princes walk.
We will want to see Music Row , where
Handel and Haydn and Mozart and
Charles Wesley ; ] and Thomas Hastings
and Bradbury have their homes , out of
i
their windows , ever and anon , rolling ,
sonic snatch of an earthly oratorio or j i I .
hymn transported with the composer.
vTe will want to see Revival Terrace ,
where Whiten1 and Nettleton and
Payson and Rowland Hill and Charles
Finuey ; and other giants of soul reap
ing : are resting from their almost super
natural labors , their doors thronged
with converts just arrived , coming to 1
report themselves. "
But brilliant as the sunset , and like
I
the leaves for number are the celestial
homes yet to be awarded , when Christ
I
to you and millions of ethers , shall divide -
vide the spoil. What do you want
there ? You shill : have it. An orchard ?
There it is ; twelve manner of fruits , and :
fruit every month. Do you want river
scenery ? Take your choice on the
banks of the , river in longer , wider : ,
deeper roll than Danube or Amazon or
Mississippi if mingled in one , and I
emptying into the sea of glass , mingled {
with fire. Do you want your kindred I
back again ? Go out and meet your
father and mother without the staff or
the stoop and your children in a dance
of immortal glee. Do you want a
throne ? Select it from the million :
burnished elevations. Do you want a
crown ? Pick it out of that mountain
of diamonded coronets. Do you want
your old church friends of earth : around 1
you ? Begin to hum an old revival tune
and they will flock ! from ali quarters to
revel with you in sacred reminiscence.
All the earth for these who are here on
earth at the time of continental and
planetary distribution , and all the
heavens for those who are there.
But notice that there is only one Be-
ing in the universe who can and will
distribute the trophies of earth and I
'heaven. It is : : : the Divine Warrior : , the
Commander-in-Chief of the Centuries
the Champion of Ages , the universal
Conqueror , the Son of God , Jesus. You
will take the spoils from his hand , or
'
never take them at all. Have his
friendship and you may defy all time
and all eternity , but without it you are
a pauper , though you had a universe
at your command. We are told in Rev-
elation that Jacob's twelve sons were
so honored as to have the twelve gates
of heaven named after them-over one
gate of heaven : Naphtali , over another
of heaven Issachar , over another Dan
over another Gad , over another Ze-
bulon over another Judah and so on.
But Christ's name is written over all
the gates , and on every panel of the I
gates ; and have his help , his pardon I
his intercession , his atonement , I
must , or be a forlorn wretch for ever.
My Lord and my God ! make me and I
all who hear me this day , and all to I
whom these words shall come , thy repentant - I
pentant , believing , sworn , consecrated
and ransomp'l followers for ever.

The total number of business failures ;
In the United States during the past
three t months is 4,512 , by coincidence
exactly 700 more than in the like quar
ter last year an increase of almost one-
fifth. The only preceding quarter in I
whkh the total number of failures was I
as large as 4,000 was in 1SS5 imme i
diately following the panic of 1SS4
when the total was 4,050. In no like
quarter before or since has the num
ber of failures been as large as in the _
past three months , although in the first | '
quarter of 1S91 ! ) there were nearly four
thousand business failures reported
3,909 ! - comrared with which the increase -
crease during the past quarter is about
one-ninth.

ticularly after a year in which there
was a moderate boom in leading com
mercial : : and industrial lines and a general -
eral advance in prices , as in ISOn , it
would have been natural to expect a
year with conditions looking to improvement
provement [ the outcome of which could ,
of course hardly help lowering the
commercial death rate.
The most unfavorable feature of the
report concerning the quarter's fail-
ures is the relatively heavy increa'so of
liabilites compared with gain in num-
ber of embarrassments. Thus while
the : increase in the latter is IS per cent
its compared with the first quarter of
1895 , and about 11 per cent. compared
with the first quarter of 1894 ! total liabilities -
bilities aggregating $6 ,513OOO. are
about 30 per cent. larger than in the
corresponding : period one year ago , and
27 per cent. larger than in the like
period two years ago. No correspond-
ing period during the previous fifteen
rears . has presented so large a total of
liabilities as that the statistics for
which are now made public. In the
first quarter of 1S95 ! when there were
July 1.050 failures , total liabilities
amounted to 41,461,000 , nearly one-
hird less.
It is when we come to records from
western and the middle states that in
creases : , not only in number of embar-
-assmcnts , but in aggregates of indebt-
jdness : , becomes striking. The western
states show an increase of the num
ber of failures of more than 45 per
ent. : , 1,205 compared with 830 a year
ago , but with respect to liabilities the
ncrease there is more than 200 per
ent. $16,905,000 as compared with $5-
136,000. : The states of New York , New
Jersey ; , Pennsylvania and Delaware report -
sort 1,030 business failures against 910
a year ago an increase of only 13 per
ent. : , but they furnish 21,102,000 of indebtedness -
debtedness for the first quarter of 1896 ,
against $17,445.000 in the like quarter
of 'ast year , an increase of 24 per
ent.
In New York City alone the total
lUmber of business failures by quarters
umped from 165 last year : : to 258 this . .
year . , about 50 per cent. , but the total
iabilities increased from $4,924,000 to
53,398,000 : , nearly 70 per cent.

Three Twines to Learn.
The Democrats have lost heart and
sake no calcuation upon seeing the receipts -

sxpenditures. They are astonished to

falling behind the wo.1ot : the McKinley
Kinley law , which , they denounced as
inefficient. Even in its closing months ,
when importations had fallen off by
reason of the expectation of reduced
tariff rates , the McKinley law produced !
more revenue than has the Gorman
law. Its receipts in the last nineteen
months of its operation were forty mil-
lion dollars greater than those of the
first : nineteen months of the Gorman
law l , while as for its first nineteen
months the McKinley : exceeded the
Gorman law by eighty million dollars
in its receipts. Here is a statement
which shows , in three lines , the com-
J

the two laws , whether in the beginning

"The year 1890 found him at the head
I of the Ways and Means : Committee and
leader of the house. In that position it
fell to his lot to frame and : secure the
enactment of the McKinley law. ( Ap-

name familiar in all the world and has
made him exceedingly unpopular in
almost all the world outside of the
I United States. ( Great Applause. : ) But
I it has correspondingly endeared him

been years of Democratic rule : they
have been years of education for the
American people in the school : of practi-

1S92. ( Applause. ) Every business man
has found out that : no matter what
