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. SOUL 011 111 SERVIC 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. terms of property, it , y, appears in our Te rnelve annelin, el., inecenio;eetliele, wliiele ere U_Sc1(1i Q3 elr3rce-43 Qua eutainS a vele° precaution.

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.

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.
