to dtelaru that there never was a Huddha
but his disciples can briny lot want as
strong proof "of his existence as the chiK-
tians ean for the e\i lenuo ot Christ in
human form. Hut my purpose is not to
attempt to ] iro\e the iliviiiily of lluddha
but to IK jour minds upon the pasitiyu
nnoU't'fiom this wonderful piophut of
( Milieu "I'nrily and impurity belongs to
oneself ; no one ean purify
another.ords in matkcd con
trast to the system of religion
commonly taught in Chri&temlonie as es
sential to salvation. You mav hoar in
any pulpit in this city , except this , thai
thouirh } onr sins bo scarlet , yet shall
they bo washed while as snow in the

Christ hasdono it all for 3011 and if yon

well with yon.
I would hesitate to anl'isjoni/.e these
fitutunients if they weto the teachings of
Jesus , but like many oilier alleged teach
ings of .Ii-siis they cannot bo found in his
word. Huddha spunks distinctly and
warns man that he is responsible lor his
evils , nor e.in ho shirk the responsibility
for them. "lly oneself evil is done , oy
oneself one must bo purilied. " liy
whomsoever spoken , these words aie
true , conform to experience and teach
most \vliolesonio doctrine. There IMS
grown up a belief ninoiiK men , founded
upon the common doctrine ot salvation ,
that a man is not responsible- the evil
which ho commits , that he need not at
tempt to piinfy Inni'-elf but that some
person or.somo institution will do it for
him Soelind fraud and corruption
and prime on the increase , partly , it not
wholly , in consequence ot this great
error in religious teaching. There is
needed a terror ot the law which coin-
pels every man to reap what he has sown.
We can all bo better than we are. No
one is helplessly bad , and no one is
fatally siek. Wo need both the teach
ings of liuildha and of the church.Vo
need to reali/o that each man , woman or
child must work out their own sals ation.

Sermon oPOtlq A. Smith at the PI-PS-
1 > \ terl.ut Church.
Otis A. Smith , of the MeCormick Theo
logical Seminary , Chicago , doliveied a
sermon at the Second Presbyterian
chinch yestciday nioiniiiR on the text
from hnlce : " 'i'hc Lifo is more than
muat. " Tlio following is a synopsis of
the discourse :
All animals lind hero in nature that
which is adapted to their highest good.
Man is alone in the anomaly of nature.
With him there is a dispropottion be
tween Ins present position and Ins power.
There is a disagreement between Ins be
ing and his cnviionment. His enjoyment
is incommensurable with his power to
enjoy. The recognition of lliis phase of
life has led , in the course ot human
thought , the two divoriring views. 1. A
feeling a life higher than tlio life we see ,
and linding the world so at war with it ,
the icsnlt has been , alas1 too often , a
wail of sadness and a wish that man hail
never been born - . The tomlonuy has
been lo add another sphere of life in tlui
hope that then the position and power of
man may be in harmony. As against the
lirst , it was against the mission of the
ban of man to eh.ingo that wail of sail-
ness into a song of joy. As against the
second , while preserving heaven as the
goal of hitman eiideavor- was Mis to
give to hum in life a giindent - and glory
iii'xcr Known to pagan poet or ' ane.
\\il\i \ exalted views ot human life ,
Cln istBought by parable and lesson and
praer to atouso man to a tine sui o of
Ills being , and to a light nso of Ins power.
A\ hat would wo think of a Kaphael or
Mo/.irt who should loiMiku his high art
nnd degrade his genius Ijf the lower uses
ot the market pliiee ? Wnal then must it
have thought of man who gave his lito to
the pursuit of mo-it and drn.k ami bodily
joy ? And sire j on here lo night Jivingalito
commeiisnr.ito wilh your powers ? If so ,
what have j on to show in nobility of soul ,
in devotion lo truth and In the loveol the
good and the pnroy
I have chosen tor my topic The Hunger
of the Soul , in the hope to awaken von
to a truer view ot human life , and atou o
yon to an activity beliitmgyotir nobh t
power , and shall do bo by the four fol
lowing arguments.
1 on have n hunger of the soul which
no more meat ean satisfy , as shown by
the vnry modiietions of men. Walk into
a library. Hero are books of history
and poetry and science. What lesion can
they te.ieh us ? They loach us tins , that
man has the ability to proditeo such worus
n.s these ; and the ability to produce is
evidence jt | itself of the power to appre
ciate and enjoy them. Walk into
an art gallery. Hero are paint
ings trom the hand of the gre.it
masters. What do they toaeh us * This :
That man has the ability to produce such
paintings as wo see hanging on every
wall. And so with music and urchitectute .
Tholr very oMstmieo in objective- form is
an evidence of the inward power to not
on ! , ) produce lint to appreciate and en
joy And all are proofs of a lifo which
no more meat can gratify.
2. Von have a hunger o ! the soul whieh
no more meat oun satisfy as prou'ti by
the experience of men.
Has man , as wo t-crc him in history , been
content with enough lo eat and diinkv
Jf so , never would wo haxo advanced be
yond Iho savage sl.tto.
Thomas Cole , in Ins picture , "Tho I'.is-
tor.il .State , " depicts human lifo truly.
Man is a shepherd , and a plo.ighnun too.
lint iimtd all the objects thai meet the
eye is FOCII the smoke ot sacnliro ascend
ing ft oiti the rndo altar tip toward the sky.
Kvcn then m-in could not live on bread
nlono. liamo wns ulenty , food was cheap ,
Jifo was easy , but even then a throbbing
heart and restless soul gave this catly
tivuleneo that lifo is more than meat.
The oariy lifo of the Hebrew race is
best lellected in their poetry , which the
gifted Herder calls "tho oldest , simplest
and Mihlimest poetry of the world. "
In no literature is ( iod so real , ami the
longing for him so deep and intenso. Tlio
worn out voluptuary sljjli for the return
of his voutli. Napoleon Wails at St.
Helena-"What is nil tins lor half a
page of universal history. "
1 he wisdom of tlio ages teaches us that
thcro is no satisfaction in euttl'ly JOY-awl
possession , and nuiio any wlu.ro sure upon
the KocU of Are- ; ,
8. You have a hun ' "rof the noul wKli
10 mere meat can gratify , as shown by
ho vices of man Animals have no
Ices. And why ? They have no soul ,
[ 'hoy have no desire save bodily deslro.
hit man has an un&ntMictl hungry mind
is well as craving for food. Tool that he
s , ho tries to still it by feeding the body
te llees from one round of business tlissi-
latioti or sensual excess to another , but
a hungry still. Ah ! it Is the hungry
5otil that is crying for food. Yea , man
s hungry the world over hungry for
! od as shown by his vices. No man Is
n so starving a oondilionas ho who feeds
only his body. Many a man gets up
'torn a banquet hungry. Ah , } onr life is
more Umu meat. Meat can IICUT
satisfy it.
As shown bv your own consciousness ,
vonr lifo Is mote than meat , IJoes tlieto
lot , at times , come o\er you a sense of
.he emptiness of life ? Is theio not a
jcarning after the abiding and true ? If
not , then jour noblest power of soul is
still dormant. Listen sometime to the
voice of your soul , and near how elo
quent it hi in appeal. Anticipating its
cry , before it became a wail of distress
or a cry of despair , nnd thus by these
four ai'gumenu 1 imo sought to gUo
yon a true view of of life and arouse yon
ton light use of power JJv
Iho productions of men this
hunger of the soul is true and real , lly
the m tori of men it is persistent and
universal. Hy the vices of men it is im-
Iterative anil by the consciousness of
men it is personal. It it yours. In jour
conception ol life be noble and true. In
your work bo faithful and honest , nnd if
temptation comes to give your life for
money getting on the nmsuit of meat
and drink , reply as Chnst icplicd , "Man
shall not live by bread alone. " Live for
truth and ( Sod for "in his presence is
fulness of Joy and at his right hand
pleasure for evermore.

llov , DcUvcller'M Kcimoii at Koimt/.c's
Memorial Church Last Kvcnlnir.
Previous to his sermon at the Kount/.o
Memorial chin eh , corner of Ilarney and
Sixteenth streets , last night , the pastor ,
the Uov. Detweiler , announced a series
of lectures , beginning next Sunday
veiling , under the general head , The
Sick Man. In the course of these lectures
ho will speak of club feet , bad blood ,
sour stomach , and other evils that the
lle-.li is heir lo. 1 he subject of his dis
course last evening was The Kldcr
Ihother , and was based on the parable of
The Prodigal Sou , found in hnke xv:15-iJ. : !
Christ's preaching was m osfe success
ful among those who were least thought
of by the Jewish aristocracy , the nub-
I'caus ' and sinners. This was made a
ground of objection against him by the
Pharisees , lie met this opposition by the
parable of the man who lent the lamb
and left the other ninety-nine of the Hook
anil searched through the mountains and
touud it ; tiic parable of the woman and
the piece of silver ; ami finally the pata-
bio of the ptodig.il sou. The elder ot
the two sous in this laltei parable , when
he heard the dance music and the re
joicing occasioned bv his brother's re
turn , was. much displeased llolli of theo
sons came from the field. The one
wasted his substance in riotous livi'ig ,
while the other , by industry and thritt ,
was trying to earn the portion of his
father's estate belonging to him.
The older brother when he hoard the
rejoicing asked a servant the occasion of
it instead of asking the father. Tliosei-
vant said , "Thy In other hath come , and
thy father , because he is alms and well ,
hath killed the fatted call. " The elder
brother became angry ami retired to
outer. His conduct is topical of those
who stand on the outside of the church
and Ret their information of its blessed
experiences from outsiders who know
nothing about it instead of going directly
to the Father liimselt by praver.
The father in the parable when ho
leaincd that his elder son was without
went out to meet him. Thus it is ih.it
( Sod comes out to meet the sinner nnd in-
\ite him to accept His grace , meicy anil
leward.
The elder brother's icplj to hisf.ittier's
question was , "All these years I have
served thee , and thou never gavest me a
f.itted calf to make merrj' with my
friends. " He spoKe as a servant , and
said "all these years have I .served theo "
There was no lilial love there. lie was
told that all the lather ha < l was his. He
shared in the possession of it all , ami it
was but meet that the return of the mod-
igal , who was dead and had leturned to
lite , should be celebrated.
This para bio ought to bo called tlrit of
the good father Ho showed nopai tiality ,
ho was as kind to one as the other , it
was the eldest , on's self-satistaetioii that
stood in his way. It is the empty
vessel which being dipped _ in th'i sea
comes up full. So it is the sinner who
feels his utter unwoithiuess that receives
( iod's foigiveocss and is tilled with the
good things of His tab'o. '
The elder brother in the modern church
is the one who serves ( Sod only for re
ward while in his deepest heart lie thirsts
for sin and transgression. He serves
( iod for what he will get , not for what
has alieady been bestowed upon him.
When he sings its all about heaven.
We're not lo work for wages. That is a
low motive. What ( Sod wants is heait
setvico. The elder brother said : "Every
thing you told me didn't I do it ? Kvofy
precept you laid down , didn't I obey if"
1 hut is an abject sciviec which Hod
doesn't want.
Another kind of elder brother in the
modern church is the ono wno makes
the shibboleth of his own creed and his
own narrow idea the standard of con
version for all sinners. The elder
brother in the parable said : -"Here
you've gone and made a feast for this
loprobato , why don't yon send him out
into the lield to toil and drudge and
earn bis restoration to favor ?
Again the elder brothers of to-day are
those who picture ( led as a hard , stern
ruler , a iu.i-.ter with a long whip. "All
these years do I servo thee" Ho looks
on himself as a servant. . 'I his parable is
a thrust at the cold blooded 113 po-
crltes who find fault because
they are not taken notice of. 1 ho nar
row minded Pharosces who couldn't ' see
beyond the eireumbciibed limitn of their
own Bullish eiceds.
The lost son the prodigal , discovered a
tine filial love and was found , The elder
.son was lost by reason of his abject and
servile idea ot the service ho owed , ami
liislory does not record whether or not
ho was found. Ho served for wages and
profit. In conclusion tha speaker
i-alled on his hearers to avoid the minim-
i/.iug , servile view of religion and to
servo ( iod for love and for what he hail
already done for them.

A SUUMO'N'ON ri\n.M
Jlov. Willartl Scnti'H Motnlng Art-
ilrcaN at Ills Church.
At tlio St. Mary's avenue Congretra-
lional church jcstcrday morning the Uev.
Willard Scott preached , lo a larco con
gregation , a sermou on "Fear , " from the
text found in the 2lst and 22d verses of
the sixteenth chanter of 1'irsl Corinthians.
The sermon i outlined as follows :
Husy men in Nebraska , wl.o have not
time to do their own corresponding , em
ploy dictation and the manual aid of
olliers. So did Paul , the apostle , in Ins
multiplied labors. His was "the care of
all the church , " and , in audition to his
formal epistles , which are contained in
our present biblo.hu had a wide corre
spondence , embracing the cities am
ilnirches of western As'a ' and Kurope
One hand was unable to do so much.
Hut , as men to-day , ho was accustomed
* o ndu hid uume iu his owu liuuUwiiting
and sometimes , as here , .1 sentence , in-
lieativo of his personal feeling. His
iiindwritiiig , ho tells tis/ was in a large ,
prawling hand , all capitals , so to speak ,
. regular John Hancock hand , and so at
ho end of this letter to the Coiinthians
hero appeared in the great , inky pen-
nanship of the apostle his solution
ind this sentence : "Jf any man
eve not the Lord Jesus Christ , let him
anathema , Maran ntha. "
It was worth his while to make his
anathema as wide as he did , for ho wns
iddressing an cvery-man's city. Corinth
vas a city of all sorts , originally Greek ,
ho star of Hellas , the capital of the
\chaian Cagnl , the center of all the
great highways , noith and south and east
ind west. It was captured in an evil
lour by Mummitis , the Roman consul , a
century and a half before Christ came.
and having lain desolnto'foronc hundred
years , it was linallv rebuilt by a Roman
colony of freedmen sent by Cjesar. Al
once it spuing to its original dignity. It
H'eame the great cosmopolitan center of
ho west H was not Greek , Roinin ,
Spartan or .Jewish. It was an all-peo-
dc's city. Hvoi'ibody eame hero to make
uoiiey or to spend it. The only two
bonds which bound its inhabitants to-
lether were enterprise and debauelierv.
In it lived Gallio , tlio brothcrof Seneca.of
whom the seiiptuie says : "Ho cared for
lone of these things,1' but so did most of
: hem It was a "don't care' ' city as to
ebgion. To include them then Paul
: icoded lo address them , "If any man. "
Hut he add" , "If any man loves not. "
I'ho Greek language is more rich than
ours and whereas wo must use one word
'love" for virious adections , little and
rival , Paul could select one adapted lo
lis purpose , ami he chose the word allied
, o our Kuglish "kiss , " by which lie
specified a devoted love. This , of course ,
-xeliides indillercncc as well as halered.
I'he Greeks of Corinth beat Gosthenes ,
Diieof Paul's helpers , and otherwise out
raged the name of Christ , while Gallio
"cared for none of these things. " The
tnathema of Paul includes them both ,
'or neither of them loved the Lord Jesus.
The anathema tests upon all who do not
oye.
This "anathema" was a Greek word
which has become familiar to us in its
mciont form , and moons "to curse.1 %
In the Hebrew it implied "to put under
the ban. " It is a vyord of solemn abjuration -
; ation , not of malice , but ot entreaty
ixml warning.
Finally he adds "Maran atha' ' "the
Lord is coming. "
Such was the salutation and sentence
of the greal apostle to Corinth , in his
own handwriting , "If any man love not
the Lord , Jesus Christ , let him bo anath
ema. the Lord is coming. " It is a deep ,
mngont call to lepentence.
Omaha is a city not unlike Corinth.
The "Gate City" so she , as Corinth was
the stay of Hellas , through her the high
ways of the world pass. Her people are
ot every land , and arc hero to make
money , and to spend it , chielly the
'armor. Her two gioatest hands are en
terprise and debauchery. In her are the
Gallios vvlio , religiously , care for none
of these things. She is a "don't c.iio"
city , a cosmopolitan center. And Paul
says to Omaha , "If any man love not the
l-oid , Jesus Christ , Id him be anathema.
'I he Loid is coming. "
Mow , fear is not the noblest motive to
iddrt-ss , all the same it is a good one. A
[ lung does not need to bo bc t to be good.
"Noah , being moved with fear , prepared
mi ark lo the saving of his hoiiso. " It
wrought good with him. It may
ivith another. It belongs to
) iir human constitution , Along
with hope , ambition and love , it holds a
ilaec. Tnen it cxrreise is not unmanly ,
nut coinage-oil" . To call one a coward
because be is afraid , is often a libel. We
should fear moio than wo do. The
bailees are usual that when one's consti
tution prompts fear , one slio'nkl entertain
it and be afraid. Fifty years ago in Lon
don , a party of gentlemen , aside from
ladies , began a conversation dishonoring
Christ , and eontined it with the consent ,
appaiently , ot all but one , who dually
rising , saidJvntlomen. ( . I am still : i
chriilian , " and ielt the. room. He was
not a bishop , not a clergyman of any do-
giee , ltit a rising member of parliament ,
itlerward to bo prime minister of Knjr-
and uncer the youthful Victoria Sir
Itobeit Peel. He wasatraidof .siieli com

Why should not one respond to danger'
In the village wo respond to the belf of
worship welcoming the bell ot marriage ,
joyous ; lo the bell of death mournful
and lo the bell of winning when the
mighty cry ot "lire" wakens. So in
daily experience we throb to
praise , to alleelion , to promise ,
lo opportunity and to danger1' And why
not to the danger of the soul ? There is
a "wrath to come " " 'tribulations and
anguish are promised to every soul of
man that doeth evil. " "It is a fearful
thing to tall into the hands of a living
( iod. " You fear poverty , ill-fame , lo-.s
of position , loss ot health , the solitude of
widowhood and childlessness why not
fear the loss of soul and the futuiii sop-
aiation from God ? Satan and fools say
"don't make a fool of yonmoli. " lint
who plays the fool but he who is brave
when he should fear , mdilVereut when ho
should quake in anxiety. Wo crown our
houses with electric rods and our lives
with insurance policies why not pro
tect the soul ?
No man Knows what the particulars of
future penalty will bo , but it ehaiaoter
docs not reap rcvvajd hereafter iu some
awlul way , when it is Godless and ir-
revciein , we are worshiping out of a
false book which should bo burned
to-morrow. 1 believe in a judgment to
come , and I am afraid of It. Who chal
lenges my fear as cowardice ? ll is not
cowardice , it is wisdom in season , and
woo to the man who is wise in this mai
ler too late. _
