Ile Tells What They are, Made of and Hammers, the Israzen Panels with the Alien ee God's .Truth—Swne Oat 0114 Swinging in. • New York, July his sermon ter yesterday Dr. Talmage Wiese a moment- ous end awed topic, ' The Gates of Hell, the text seleeted being the rattai1:1r pas- sage in Matthew xvi, 18, ."The gates of hell shall nut prevail against it." Entranced, until we could endure no more of the splendor, WO have often gazed at the shin ng gates, the gates of Pearl, the gates of heaven. But we are for a wiate to luok in the opposite direetion and -see swinging open and shut the gates of hell, I remember, when the Franco-German war was °snug on, that I stood one day In Paris lbooking at the gates of the Tullerie, and I was So absorbed in the sculp- turing at the top of the gates—the masonry and the bronze—that I forgot myself, and after awhile, looking down, I saw that there were offieers of the law scrutinizing me, supposing, no doubt, I was a tserman and looking at those gates fee adverse purposes. nnt. my friends, we shall not stand looking at the outside of the gates of hell. In this ser- mon I shall toll you of both sides and I shall tell you what those gates are made of. With the hammer of God's truth I shall pound on the brazen panels, and with the lantern of God's truth, I shall flash a light upon the shining hinges! Gate the First.—Impure literature. .Anthony Conistoc seized twenty tons of bad books, plates and letter press, and when our Professor Cochran of the Poly- technic Institute poured the destructive acids on those plates they smoked in the rightequs annihilation. And yet a great deal of the bad. literature of the clay is not gripped of the law. It is strewn in your parlors ;it is in your libraries. Some of your children read it at night after they have retired, the gas burner swung as near as possible to their pillow. Much of this literature is under the title of scientifie information. A book agent with one of these infernal books, glossed over with scientific nomenclature, went into a hotel and sold in one day a hund- red copies and sold them all to women 1 It is appalling that mon and women who can get through thoir family physician all the useful information they may need, and without any contamination, should wade chin deep through such accursed literature under the plea of getting useful knowledge, and that printing T resses hoping to be called decent lend themselves to this infamy. Fathers and mothers, be not deneived by the title "medical works." Nine -tenths of those books come from the lost world, though they may have on them the names of the pub- lishing houses of New York, Chicago and Philadelphia. Then there is all the novelette literature of the day flung over the lana by the million. As there are good novels that are long, so I suppose there may be good novels that are short, and so there may be a good novelette, but it is the exception. No one—mark this—no one systematically reads the average novelette of (this day and keeps either integrity or virtue. The most of these novelettes are written by broken down literary men for small compensa- tion, on the prin ciple that, having failed In literature elevated and pure, they hope to succeed in the tainted and the nasty. Oh, this is a wide gate of hell! Every panel is made out of a bad book or news- paper. Every hinge is the interjoined type of a corrupt printing press. Every bolt or look of that gate is made out of She plate of an unclean pictorial. In ether words, there are a million men and women in the United States to -day reading themselves into hell! When in one of our cities a prosperous family fell into ruins through the mis- deeds of one of its members, the amazed mother said to the officer of the law: "Why, I never supposed there was any- thing wrong. I never thought there was anything wrong." Then she sat weepine enough. 15 is.LUOUgil in silence for some time and said: "(fir, to hear ,the plunge.

I will show it to you.: "Moreover, the Lore saith, because the daughters of Zion are haughty and walk wlih streetehed forth necks and wanton eyes, walking , and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling, with their feet, in that day the Lord will take away she bravery of their tinkling ornaments about their feet, and their emus and their round tires like the moon, the rings and nose jewels, the ohangeable suits et apparel, and the mantles, and the wimples, and the crisping pins." That is the fashion plate of ancient Tyre. And do you wonder that the Lord God in His indignation blotted out the city, so that fishermen to -day spread their nets whore that city once stood?

If she had. over stood upon the topmost round I be- lieve wo wouhi have involuntarily ea/led her Anderson straight. But we never did. Here is a little propheey: That this one will soon be universally called Nethersole also, that long before we are old men MO women the test or a new actress will be an intpdry as to how far she falls short of the Nethersole standard. Just .at present WO cent arrive at some idea of what she and all that she is, by comparing her with other famous' actresses of our immediate recollection e, Mary An- derson, Z;eilson, 3i/Sedjeska and Bernhardt. Between. her and Mary Anderson there can be no comparison. When all was said, Mary Anderson was a beautiftil young impersonality who could make Rome howl -and who did. That was her idea of acting. Between her beauty and her manager -stepfather, and the fact that, as well as I can recollect, there Was just then no other prominent aepirant in that par- ticular histrionic line, she achieved a repu- tation that she could not repeat now. Were we to see her now as she was then, X believe that .we would place her some- where between Julia Marlowe and Ada Rotten. As between Nothersole and Neilson, a vital point of difference is this: that Neil- son was beautiful fiest, and an actress next, while Nethersole is the actress first, lust and always, and lea,ves her beauty— which is a variable quantity—to take care Stage tradition has it that lierees Ond heroteee are different in their ways of do- ing thing$ net only from people in real life,but trona all the other 0 ple who live in Stageland, Vox^ instance, a stage hero was never knovett to cry out loud; he just says `My Sawa,' and bangs his forehead down on the mantel piece and pumps his Shoulders up and down, The stage hero- ine's weeping is just as remarakble in its way. She °ail ory all over the floor, and a sofa, and ono or two people's shoulders, without over getting her nose root or really "tootling her pooket bandicerchier, Stage tradition demands that her woepings shall bo of the desiccated kind, that will leave hor face • as dry as the Yuma Desert and her handkerchief fresh. and crisp enough for another wearing. Nethersole knows that 110 0110 GYM cries that way and when she cries she does it in a way that is in direct violation of a sacred tradition of the stage, To be vory silo blows hoe nose. No other actress I ever saw play a romantic role be- fore has ever dared to do that ; as a sign of emotion .on the stage it , has been re- stricted to old men with large hand- kerchiefs, Iola. has boon invariably regard- ed as something quite funny. This is pO0' ersion of facts, peduliar to the stage, and it took Nethersolc to realize it and to upset the established order of things. When, after the famous interview with Arnsand's father, she breaks into a storm of tears, she cries as people really ory, whether they are heroines or people like you and me, not only with sobs and tears, but with unmistakable snuffling and a practical use of the handkerchief that makes a little damp ball of it.
