The primary deeign or the temple at
Jerusalem v.'Eta 1,0 afford a habitation
for the ark of the covenant and for
Urn whose covenant it contained, It
v as the meettng pine for {eel and
' man, the place of intercession and
atonement. The supreme moment in
tho Watery of the sacred building
maw when the cloud which symboliz-
ed the assured presence of Jettoveh,
filled the house. It testified to God's
acceptanco of the temple and its sere
vices. It proclaimed his readinees to
hear prayer. It inspired and confirm-
ed faith. It metered significance W
old gymbols. It introcluved a euper-
natural element. It afforded to the
minds of all a visible image and the
Mork= appetuanee of Gain haeing
desceaded into this temple to make it
his dwelling -place. It betokenid the
diviue approval upon Israel in their
gorpose to exalt his name before all
natione, *lid to observe to do all things
according to his law. The appearance
of the cloud eves the melt important
event ef the day. The abidlog pro.
senee of Jehovah in Israel was the
most significant proor of their well-
being. The conseeration of the tem-
ple war, the grandest religious cere-
enory of the iild covenant. In it Solo-
mon, as tee king elmsen of God, re-
presented tho entire theocracat. He
was one in heart and inteteet with
those over whom he rules!. He did not
take to himself the .whole !redit for
originating the design of the temple.
Ho aseribel to David, his father, the
ideal which had become the accom-
eliebed weak of hie son. God'ceve-
nant with David brought to Soloraon
much of Ids glory and honor. David
hal been the military hero and cham-
pion of his nation. Solomon was to
be the organizer and adininistrator.
Never did Solomon appear so much
"in. all his glory," aa on the day of
.the dedication of elle temple.. Ha was
Cully alive to the solemn and momen
ttms meaning of what was taking
place on that day.
II. Pardon for all men contemplat-
ed. Solomon's chief desire was that
all people might know the Lord. Isra-
el's mission was to make known to
mankind the God who had revealed
himself in wondrous power to teem
The whole Mosaic aconomy was built
on the grand truth of the absolute
world-wide supremacy of Jehova.h.
Solomon's conception of the person-
ality and power of Cod wae sublime.
Throughout his prayer, he identified
the home of God with all human in-
terests.. He spread before God the
needs of all people, and asked from
him 'deliverance in every time of need.
He enumerated specific cases in which
the merciful interposition of God
wculd be required. He recognized dis-
tinctly the fact that all things which
had ever occurred to try the faith, the
patience, the virtue of mankind would
occur again and again. He entered
into various supposed conditions of
need deal suffering among his people
as a true intercessor in their behalf.
Sincere piety, blended with deepest
humility. His royalty assumed the as-
pect of fatherhood. The praying king
was one of the most remarkable fea-
tures in the scene of the dedication
of the temple. He was the central fig-
ure, Both priest .and prophet gave
lace tie him. His supplication took a -
wider range than the needs of Israel
alone. Kindly human sympathy was
a marked characteristic of Solomon's
prayer. It overflowed national preju-
dice. Shuple, touching and beautiful
were the words of that first prayer of-
fered in the temple. Forgiveness Was
the first thing asked for. Solomon
regarded it as most needed, most im-
pertant. The Hebrew King might not
eacrifke or burn incense, but he might
lCad the prayers both of priests and
people on tbat grandest day in the
ilistory of Israel. He prayed as the
representative and leader of others.
eI1 through that prayer, which stands
so prominent in scripture and remark -
elite in circumstances, reference was
'made to in and to the consequent ne-
cessity for pardon, since sin 313 ever
the cause of disquietude. It is the
moral disease that lurks within the
euman soul. The re:alien of the tem-
ile to the individual religious life of
the people was clearly brought to view.
Before the mercy seat, all suppliants
stood on one common level, subject to
the same dangers and neeessities. On
that basis Solomon's intercession was
acceptable to Cod. T. R. A.

people and bleseed them, while they

The thought or this entervise was in
the heart ef David, but, brause of his
being inueh eugng-u[ in wur, he was
Itot allowed to build the temple. The
Lord gave David the promee, how-
ever, that a son of his would mom-

tho account in 2 Chron. 6: 12, 13, we
learn that he stood upon a platform
and then kneeled down to pray. pread
forth his hands -This was a common
custom In prayer, an now froglientlY
those who are engaged in common
prayer raise their hands toward
heaven. 23, ,He said -The prayer of
Solomon is recorded, and is the long-
est which is pleserved to us in the
scriptures. No God like thee -Solo-
mon used adoration as well as sine
ilication in his prayer. Ile showed his
confidencein the God of Israel; and if
the congregation joined heartily .aith
him in his prayer, they were lar from
being inclined toward idolatry. He
ascribed to him faithfulness and
mercy. With all their heart -The con-
dition upon which men than, as now,
received the divine favor was to walk
before him in sincerity, devotion and
faith, or with all the heart. 24. Hest
fulfilled it -The king gave God the
glory for what had been done. He had
fulfilled the promise which he had
made to David. 25. Shall not fail thee
a man -As the Lord had fulfilled the
promise to David regarding the temple,
so the king besought the Lord that
the promise concerning a succession of
kings to occupy the throne would be
fulfilled. This promise was condi-
tional upon David's descendants being
obedient to the Lord. So that thy
children -"If only thy chilren."-R. V.
26. And now -Solomon was in earnest
to have his prayer answered, and he
repeated -his petition.

mon had an eXalted conception or God.

is an expression of faith in God's

June 20th,
"Ngaundere, owing to its situation,

diverging from it, appears to have
been the centre of Germany resist-
ance and its loss le a serious blow to

Ngaundere, the Germane retreated in

policy to be followed as the result of
Germany's failure to satisfy the Am-
erican demands made in the note on
June 9. It is understood that the
President and Mr. Lansing found that
they had reached about the sante con-
clusion -that the next communication
to Germany will be of a definite char-
acter, making unmistakably clear that
the United States cannot be expected
to remain passive .in the event of an-
other attack on an unarmed and un-
resisting ship with a loss of Ameri-
cans.
The note, now practically agreed,
will announce to Germany the inten-
tion of the United States to assert its
rights on the high seas in accordance
with international law. There probab-
ly will be little or no distinction on
the principles already treated at length
in previous notes.
Prompt action In dispatching the
note was generally ;forecasted. To-
morrow it will be submitted by the
President to the Cabinet, and possibly
may be revised again at Friday's
meeting. in oificial quarters it was
agreed the cotrmunication would be
on its way to Berlin by Saturday.
Alteough it Is not certain whether
refeienee will bc made to the attack
on the Cunard liner Orduna, it is
known that ihe incident has swept
aside previous suggestions that the
next communication would take into
consideration that German su.bmar-
ine commanders in actual practice
were conforming to the rules of in-
ternational law. Irrespective of the
details of the Orduna attack, the fact
that a vessel carrying Americans
bound to the United States and trans-
porting no contraband, was attacked
without warning, impressed high of
ficials that the German submarine
warfare still held forth many hazards
for Am.erieans traveling the aigh seas
"on lawful errands.'
The President is said to have be-
come convinced thec fle next com-
munication to Germany must point
out hi man more emphatic terms
than have been heretofore used the
earnest intention .01 the American
Government Lot to surrender any of
its riglits.

London, July 18. -Reports which
have reached Britain. during the last
few days regarding the Dardanelles
operations, and particularly the Turk-
ish means of detence, have led to the
plediction that a victory which will
place Constantinople at their mercy
will ee reached miehin six weeks. Gen-
erally speaking, this confident andel-
eation is regarded as ultro-optimistic,
but it originates in a quarter which
deeerves attention.
The Daily Chronicle has the follow-
ing from eithens; A great scarcity of
munitions in Purkey is about to lead
the Goyernments of Germaay and
Austria into taking extremely serious
steps. It has been already reported
that consignments of munitions of war
from Germany for Turkey have beed
held up in Roumania. A Russian
newspaper, Russko Slovo, states that
the Governments of the central em-
pires are preparing a note to Rou-
mania on this question, which is one
of life and death to the Austro -Ger-
man hopes in Turkey. To -day in-
quiries in diplomatic circles here tend
to show that the Russko Slovo's etate-
nient is quite correct. I learn that the
note will take a form akin to an. ulti-
matum. Austro -German troops -are
now being concentrated on the Rou-
manian frontier as a means of exert-
ing pressure on thellucharest Gov-
ernment before, the note is handed In.
The whole position of Turkey's army
in the Gallipoli peninsula is in the'
balance until Turkey can secure im-
mediately large consignments of
ammunition.
