RAILWAY CASUALTIES.
Greater Than in Wars of 1812 and.
1846 in 'United States.
The New York World says : In the
first three months of this year 813
persons were killed and 9,958
wounded by railway collisions and
accidents of all kinds. Of this total
53 passengers only were killed and
826 injured; all the rest were rail-
way employees. This large crop of
'deaths and wounds was the fruit of
,220 coUisions and 888 derail-
ments. These figures are just, made
public by the Interstate Commerce
Commission. They cover only a
quarter of a year. Multiplied by
four, we get these as the probable
totals for the full year: Killed, 3,-
252: wounded, 39,832.
That is to say, a, larger number of
persons are killed every year on our
railways than were killed in the war
with Great Britain. from 1812 to
1815, and the war with Mexico
from 1846 to 1848 added together,
and flae times as many are wounded
as were wounded in both those his-
toric conflicts. Yet if these figures
or 1902 are not exceeded they will
he a marked improvement over those
for 1900, in which year 7,855 per-
sons were killed and 50,820 wounded
on United States railways, which
exceeded the combined totals of the
'Union soldiers killed and wounded
in the terrible battles of Antietam,
Gettysburg and the Wilderness.

tho Voperoaeot of Jaidoulture, Ottoro•A
A desratch from Olde4g0 says
Rev. Frank De Witt, Talmage preach-
ed from the following text ;a-Psttlni
xofia 14, "They sued bring forth
'fruit in old age."
• Old age is a haunting spectre. It
has terrorized the generations past
more than eveu the fear of death.
The most hated and feared of all the
Grecian philosophers was he who
used to stand us on the street cor-
ners of Athens frighteuing the pass-
ersby with these solemn words :
"You will be an old man. You will
be an old woman." He frightened
the Passersby because most people
do not want to become old. They
are afraid of coming to the time
when they will be a burden to their
children and their friends. They are
afraid of the time when their earn-
ing capacity shad cease, for then,
in the race of We, they will be
jostled and left far behind by the
speed and the .strength of the young-
er generation. They are afraid of
the years :vixen they will have to
walk with a cane or crutch or sit
in an Meant' chair waiting for the
time when the coffin maker awill fin-
ish their ca.sket and the undertaker
will order their grave, to be dug. To
show how depressed some • people
are otter the fact of growing old I
would read a letter which I received
some time ago from one of my
people a .
Dear Mr. Talmage.—Last night in
your sermon you stated that this is
the age for young men. You did
not have time to speak one word in
favor of the usefulness of the old
people. I was sorry. 1 knew some
sitting near to me who • would be
heavy 'hearted on accouut of their
old age. This morning an aged
Member of your • church called Upon
me. He said he was so depressed
over your remarks last night that
he could not sleep. With tears in
his eyes, he said, "I wonder if old
people will be wanted in heaven."
Now, my dear pastor. I would like
you, if possible, to pres:ch a sermon
upon the •blessings of old age. I
would like you to preach a sermon
to cheer up thosa who have passed
the zenith of their earthly life and
are sliding down the other side and
nearing the landing place of eternity.
You wall,. will you not 2" -
st,
It is in answer to the retpies.s in
this, ietter that I am going to
speak this morning to the old folks.
I will gladly try to refute
THE POPULAR FALLACY
that old age for the Christian is
to the proof, and he declared that
he had found them true."
The aged Otimstian influeneea for
good those who are near to him be-
cause he is able to la.vish upon
them a wealth of boundless, fervent,
tender Christian affection. While we
are youug and even middle aged we
spend most of our time in doing for
others rather than in showing the
sweet manifestation of our affec-
tions. We are like Martha, who
went into the kitchen to cook Jesus
a dinner, rather than like Mary, who
sat at the feet of Christ.
The statement that the aged Chris-
tian can exercise a mighty influence
for good over the lives of those who
are nearest and dearest to hini, is
especially true if those dear ones in
turn have children of their own. I
do not believe a man ever felly ap-
preciates the love of a parent until
he himself is married and has babies
about his own family table. It is
only after a man who has heti the
worries arid the anxieties of his own
home troubling his heart, it is only
after he has stood by the side of
the cradle and nursed his baby boy
through the awful sickness of diph-
theria, it is only after he has got
his own family burial plot and has
dug therein a little grave for One of
his own babies, that he begins to
appreciate what his father and
mother in their time have done for
him.
So, my aged Christian friend, if
you have children who have child-
ren of their owxi your work on earth
is not yet done. Now that your
own children feel so grateful to you
on account of your past and present
love, you can monScl them and in-
fluence them and `Plurify them by
that same love better than ever be-
fore. Perhaps by that love you
east influence them. even more for
Christ and eternity now tban when
they were young men and young
women standing upon
, Taal THRESHOLD OF 'LIFE.
The .aged Christian is able to in-
spire the spirit of reverence in the
hearts of many with whom he comes
in contact. This spirit is a.
growth, not an act. It is a germ
seed which often takes years and
years to develop, and not an entity
which springs into being at a jump
or a bound. It . generally starts
away back in the nursery. If the
child learn to respect his mother;
then it is very easy for him to
learn as a boy to respect his teach-
ers, then it is very easy for him as
a. young man to learn to respect his
Christian employers. If a young
man respects his Christian employ-
ers, then it is very easy for him as

WHITER THAN SNOW. .
- Thus, ye aged • Christians. I want
you to realize that the words of
my text were written for you.
"They shall still bring forth fruit
in their old age" means that your
wok and usefulness will not be fin-
ished until you draw your last
breath, Instil you take your glorious
departure. So, aged Christians,as
your aged parents sweetened your
life when you•were young, you, by
the blessing of God, are sweetening
ours. May your work be to you a
happy work until at last the angel
of the resurrection comes to call
you to your eternal reward. May
we be as faithful to our trust as
you, who are still faithfully bear-
ing frait in your old age.
And so, nay. aged Christian friends,
I believe that you are the favored
ones. You are the Christians who
will carry the message to our 'dear
ones as well as to your own. When
you go, I want you persoaally to
take to my mother and father my.
love,- just as my father sent. his love
to his boy. - Tell them for me that
by the grace of Clod we all want to
meet them soon.

When they came to the. borders of

thy God hath set the land before

Moses and asked that men be sent to

the eyes of their hearts (Eph. 1, 18,
R. V.), and instead of seeing only
God and His goodness and His pro-
mises they saw difficulties which
seemed to them insurmountable, for
they forgot the deliaerance from
Egypt, and the dividing of the Red
sea, and the quails and the manna
so wondrossiY• given, and so they
talk of walled cities and giants and
a strong people, and they seem not
to reckon upon God at, all. They
believed .not His word (Ps. esti, 21,
22, 24);
30.' And Caleb stilled the people
.before Moses and said, Let us go up
at once and possess it, for we are
well able to overcome it.
This was no vain boast or re-
liance upon themselves, but words
uttered from a heart stayed upon
Jehovah. Hear Caleb and Joshua
in chapter. xiv, 6-9 : "If the Lord
delight in us., then He will firing us
into this land and give it us; * *
only rebel not ye against. the Lord,•
heither fear ye the people of the
land; * the Lord is with us.
Fear them not." Listen to this
same Caleb forty-five years later
when he asked Joshua for the moun-
tain where the giants were, "And
now, .behold, the Lord hath kept me
alive, as Ffe said, these Sorty and
five years, * * * if so be the Lord
will be with me, then I shall be able
to drive theni out, as the Lord
said" "(Josh. xiv, 10-12). He whol-
ly followed the Lord and relied upon
31-88. But the men that went up
with him said, We be not able to go
up against the people, for they are
stronger than we.
Thus they brought up an evil re-
port of the land, a slander upon the
land (xiv, 36). They saw the gi-
ants, and they saw themselves as
grasshoppers. It was a case of
"we". and "they," but not a word
about God. They aro stronger than
we. We were in their sight as grass-
hoppers. In our conflicts with the
enemy as ,we pass through- this wil-
derness or sojourn in tile pleasant
land everything depends upon. our
point of vision. If we see things
from: our standpoint, the giants and
walled cities will seem very real,
but if, like. Caleb and Joshua,we
stand with God all -difficulties will
seem as nothing. When David went
to meet Goliath, he did not consider
his own Weakness.
'xiv, 1. And. all the congregation

up their voice and cried, ancl
the people wept that night.
No wonder they acted thus when.
they were so unbelieving and rebel-
lious against God. They were with-
in sight and reach of the good land,
but occupied with themselves and
despising the promises of God and
even God IIimself. See the record
of a previous sweeping in Nun. xi,
4, 10, 13. 18, 20, and /slater one in
Num. xxv, 0, and note that it was
all because of unbelief. as was the
weeping of Mary Magdalene at the
tomb on the resurrection mornings
Joy and peace come by believing,
but in no other way (Rom. xv, 18;
John civ, 1, 27; xx, 27-20).

They even wished they were. 'dead
or might die in the wilderness, and

xvii., 3; Num. xvi, 11, 41. They did
not consider that their weeping was
in the ears of, the Lord and their
murinuringe against Him (Num xi,
18; xiv, 28, 27; Ex, xvi, 8), nor that
when they complained it displeased
the Lord (Num. xi, 1).

Let us make a captain and let us
return into Egypt.
The Lord Hireself was their cap-
tain, as He also is ours (Josh. v,
14; II Chron. :chi, 2; Heb. ii, 10),
but they wanted no more of Him.
Stephen says that in their hearts
they turned back again into Egypt,
and Nehemiah says that in their re-
bellion they appointed a captain to
return to their bondage (Acts 11,
30; Neh. ix, 17). Let us consider
what is written about looking back
in Gen. xix, 26; Luke ix. 62•xvii,
82, and contrast looking forward
and upward in Prov. iv, 25; Heb,

BANK NOTE FORGERY.
An extraordinary method of fabri-
cating bogus bank notes has just
been detected in Brussels. The op -
'orators cut small pieces from real
notes, and put them together with
infinite dexterity on a tissue paper
so fine that the fraud could only be
with difficulty detected when the
bogus note Was held up agninet a
strong light. From ten good. notes
an eleventhof higher denomination
was manufactured in this way.
