Forthe. moment a. spOltesmon of the
Mstry it tbe question by, but ft IS
certain to be preseed, for public feeling'
tae subject Is for the first tinae
4', strongly ,aroused; now tbat an English
Princess'has been the object of attadc.
Timely and interesting, therefore, is the
ao element made the other day by Sir
Howard Vincent, M. P., whci speaks
with the authority of experience, that the
plots of• anarclast assassins can be, aoel
have been, blocked succeesfully by in-
ternational co-operation.
Sir Howard , Vincent, it may be re-
called, Was •farmerly the director of
criminal investigations in London, and
in conjunction with the late Lord Cur,
tee anal Sir Godfrey Lushington repre-
sented Great Britain in tho Anti-Anarch-
is', Conference convoked at Borne by the
Italian Government .after the Empress
•of Angela had been adsessinated by 'an
Italian anarchist in Switzerland. Certain
facts recited by him in an interview
will) the Peale correspondent a the Loh -
don Times are to us entirely new and in
high degree suggestive. Sis. Howard
reminded his interlocutor that tbe
Rome conference had been held for the
purpose of inducing European nations
and the United Stales of America to
take vigorous and concerted action for
the prevention of anarchist crime. Jt
was soon recognized, he, eays, that very
little could be 'accomplished io that di-
rection by diplomatic 'nieans. His own
experience had indicated a, more effici-
ent method of procedure. He had come
k the conclusion that the prevention of
anarchist crime was exclusively a mat -
for international superviaion and
quick intercommunication between the
police forces of civilized nations,. He
proposed, consequently, to the confer-
ence that the chief officers of police ,in
the sixteen countries represented at
Porhe should be formed into special
committee, deputed to consider, .within
dosed doors and without minutes or
written reports of their discussions and
decisions, what steps could most advan-
etageousV be taken. His own conviction
that anarchist crime could be minimized,
if not wholly averted, by international
pelice communication and co-operation
was adapted, he said, by the committee,
and he went on to Malec an assertion
which, we iinagine, Will surprise most
readera, who have looked upon the Rome
eonferente as completely abortive, the
eesertion, namela, that an international
system of s`upervision and control was
agreed upon, formulated and actually
tarried out for eighteen months, during
Which no anorchist outrages of a seri-
ous character occurred.

Christianity Offers a Way of Salvatio
All the People
'
How bit that ye- have agre,ecl toge-
ther to tempt the spirit of filo Lord?—
At the outset the Christians of l'efu-
shlern agreed to have ali things in,colal-
mon,. Thoseawho had fields and houses
sold theme and, the precceds were put
into the commbn purse. Only a certain
couple, Ananias and Sapphire, decided
that they wished to be Christians and
get the advantages, whatever they might
be, of Christianity without bearing all
the burden of it.
„They therefore agreed to sell part at
their property and put the money in the
common purse, but to represent that
money to be the proceeds -of the ealo ,f
the whole proaerty. They did so, and
were punished by death, visited upon
them miraculously, because they had
tempted the spirit, of the Lord. The
words of the text are the,words of St.
Peter, which he addresses to the Woman
when lee accus.es her of the conspiracy
between hereelf and her husband to de-
fraud God.
This story of Ananias and Sapphira
Is, as I take it, an allegory intended to
express a profound Christian truth.
There can be no more complete unity
and community of interest than that
which exists among children of one
household. But by yirtue of its funda-
mental principles, Christianity is
• SUCH A BROTHERHOOD.
•
All are 'children of one Father—and
brothers each of the other. This rela-
tion is the first thought in the Lord's
prayer, "Our Father, Who are in
heaven," which is the pattern prayer f
Christendom. It underlies the two,nom-
mandments wbieh our Lord substituted
for the ancient ten—namely, (1) "Thou
shalt 'love the Lord thy God with all Ally
heart and with all thy soul and with all
thy mind," and (2) "Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself." Expressed an
Lord's teaching that a man .should
gard himself, merely as the stee,,ar ,
riot the Meer of his, possessions; that
is, that, his property is not his .to enjoy
for himself, but only to administer -for
the greatest good of his brethren.
No man is a true Christian who 'has
not made the fundamental surrender Of
himself and all that he has to God in and
through his fellow men. ale who, pro-
fessing the name of Christianity, still
regards worldly goods—his powers, hie
talents, his knowledge, the wealth which
holies inherited or acquired—as his for
his* own amusement, for his ONVII ag-
grandizement, for the enrichment of his
children and not for the service of his
brother men, has tempted the spirit of
the Lord, and his punishment is spiri-
tual deatlf.

HE' CANNOT' KNOW GOD,
for God is love,•but to know God is to
possess eternal life, and not to know
God is to be dead eternally. •
This is the fundamental truth of
Christianity, above all expressions ol
creeds. A man may believe with hit.
mind and express with his lips belief in
all the doctrinee'of the Christian .chuteh
unless he makes the surrender of him-
self and what he possesses he does not
in fact believe in Chrest.
True belief in Jesus Christ, is the ac-
ceptance as the rule of life ot the spirit,
ef Christ, the spirit of service and sacri-
fice. To choose as the Standard and the
aim of one's lite self -advancement or
self -pleasing- instead of the service of
one's fellows—ebove all, to 4-nalte one's
very profeaelen of religion a Means of
self-profit—that is the sin against the
Holy Spirit which.may not be forgiven,
neither here nor hereafter. That is the
meaning and the lesson of the parable of
Ananias and Sapphira, who agreed to-
gether to tempt the spirit of the Lord.

Jesus attended the autpinnal'
Feast of Tabernacles at Jeruealem
which had constituted' his field of labor
during 'Inoet of his public ininietry.'
While at Jerusalem Jesus taught in the
courts of the temple and delivered
among other dispoulee3 those on himself
as the Light of the World and on spiri-
'tree freedom. .Tlie seventh and eighth
chapters of John's Gospel are devoted
to the sevents and discourses connected
with this. isit to Jerusalem. After the
feast Jesus seems to have returned for
a very brief period to Galilee. His final
departure from Galilee is recorded in
Matt. 19. 1, 2; Mark 10. 1; and Luke 0,
51-02. The period between the time of
this departure from Galilee until the
final arrival of -Jesus at JerusaMm at the ,
time of his triumphal entry is generally
knOwn as the period of his Preen' min-
istry, concerning which we ahall have
1110I'Q to say in another connection. The
first event of this period noted, by the
evangelists was the Mission of the
Seventy, recorded in Luke 10. I-24, and ,
in the parallel passage Matt. 10. 1-30.
The events of today's lesson fellow e
immediately after the sending forth of
the seventy and occurred somewhere'
'outside of Galilee, probably in some
,town or village to the south or south,
east.
