That they had weakened the character and rule of Solomon was evident in tile .complaints which the people offered when they were about to proclaim Rehoboam king, That Solomon's dealings with Rehoboam bad not prepared the way for the best development of his character orthe deepening of his religious life, comes out in his opening career as king over the ten tribes upon their revolt against the rule of Rehoboam. lar. Intervention. Under Rehoboam the kingdom of Judea fell into griev- utis Sin until the whole land was pole luted with Mole and heathen worship.. The watchful eye of God marked the time of viaorious warfare, which he granted to Asa, 'and through the pre - het Azariah directed the king in a national revival witich included the displacement of an idolatrOuS queen, the extinction of the Sodomites arid the destruction of idol Worship. In Israel the sin of Jeroboam incre.ased. la Alalas reign an idolatrous queen, Jezebel, was allowed to bring in her prophets aud set up her altars to Deal, and overthrow the worship of Jeho- vah. The merciful intervention of God w as manif ad in sending Elijah to cleolare a drougbt, Um lawful punish- ment for apostasy. The vindication of God's supreme rule and power was made on Mount Carmel. When Ahab still ignored the God of Israel and Benbadad sought to subdue Israel unto Syria, God proved himself the God of all nations and the preserver of his people, that all kings might know that the gods of the heathen were ae, noth- ing before his might And power, T.

Rehoboam, Solo- man's- son, expected the people to make .him king at Shechem.

VII. Topic: Jeroboam's policy. -Places: Schechem; Bethel; Dan. Jere- ' boam feared that if the ten tribes continued to go to Jerusalem to wor- ship the Lord, they would return to the kingdom from which they had separated; therefore he set up images of calves at Bethel and Dan to re- present God, and made those, paces centers for worship, thus plunging the nation into idolatry.

Topic -National history. • I. Intrigue, II. Intercession, III. Inconstancy, IV, Intervention, Intrigue. Along with the kingly character and conduct of David we trace the chastening hand of the Lord, even down to his last days. The ono dark sin of his life forever cast its abadow over his family. The bitter an- guish that filled his soul when Absa- lom stole away the hearts of the peo- ple and openly attempted to taunt the throne, did not come from the possible humiliation of losing the kingdom, but from the consciousness that his own sin had brmight sueh sorrow upon his fabally as to result in the rebellion of a beloved son against his sorrowful and ever -penitent father.

London, Eeet, 19.-A description of the fighting in the Anzac region on the Gallipoli Peninsula during the ia,st week in Augest and the result achieved during this" period is get en by the Dardanelles correspondent of Reuter's Telegram Company. The capture Zdff Hill No. 60 was im- portant, saYe the Correspondent, as it is the last crest of the last ridge separating the Anzac zone from the Plains to the north, and thus con- aitutes a Went of union between the British force in the Anzac poaition and the line across the Suvla plain, besidee giving access to a ravine lead- ing to high ground beyond it. The Turks, he says, clung to tho hill with atbo utmost determination, And When they were thrown 'out of their trenches would fight their way baelc again, accepting terrible losses unflinchingly to regain the lost ground, with the result that when the trendies filially were captured thOY were filled with the Turkish dead. it took three day a to oust the Turks, and the groutid arottnd, he seas, is still thickly strewn with their bodies and those Of British soldiers who fell in the assaalts. It •is computed, declares the eor- reepondent, that the 'Perks lost five thoneand Men before they surrendered the Position.

This mammoth T.J. S. syndicate, according to tentative arrangements said to have been agreed upon, will be nation-wide- in it character, and will comprise national and State banks and trust companies from the Atlantic to the Pacific. A number af so-called pro -German financiers, it was reported, will join the syndicate if it be finally agreed that the pro- .ceeds of the big loan shall be avail- able only for commodity exports, and nee for munitions of war. The aOrIce at which this syndicate Will put out the .British and French Government bonds which will be is- sued, to secure the 185110 Will be par.

It is believed that important clecisio As will be taken respecting the deveiaP- meat of the campaign, but no ()facial communication has been issued. The following official statement was issued toalay: "The A"ustrians aitaelteu our Os tesia-Florentini position, northwest of Arsiero, but were repulsed. An at- tempt to burn the Valagna Forest, where our sharpshooters prevente.d repairs to the Vezzena tort, was rms. trated. thanks to our artillery's quick interventiee. "On tee Chteso, despite stubborn re- sistance and •counter-attacks by the Austrians, our infantry succeeded alter a rCr:Ce of operations in occupy- ing Ferrocavallo Forest, in which the enemy was strongly entrenched. "The Austrians, shamefully simu- lating surrender, trapped a small col- umn of our soldiers and inflicted heavy losses. • "Our dirigibles dropped 40 'bombs on the Austrians' Assoiciazza aviation ground, and also bombarded the Na- brasina railroad viaduct. They re- turned safely. "Austrian aeroplanes bombarded the open cities of Libre, Asiago and Bas- sarto. A few civilians were wounded. The damage was insignificant." • AUSTRIAN CLAIM.

Otherwise the situation on the Tyrolean -Carinthian border dis- tpict is unchanged. "An attack against the Pineal re- gion, which cost the enemy in the valley alone a thousand men, failed entirely. Early this morning the ad- vanced trenches were abandoned by the enemf. "In the Ursic district the enemy at- tempted under cover of the evening mist to surprise one of. our advanced positions.

Even the staggering sums raised by bond issues at home, with which the war has been carried on, will come second to the loan to be floated here when the time comes to eay the principal. . The whole big issue of bonds will be payable in American dollars, prin- cipal ani interest, For generations past, Great Taritain's bonds have been PaYaoie oroy in sterling. The bonds will run five years or ten, it is not Yet known which. In agreeing to have the %sue hand- led by an underwriting syndicate, the anglo-Frenees finencial commission, whose errand here is to establish the loan, apparently has deferred to the views of Americans financiers, the original intention- of the commission having been reported to provide for general subscription to the bonds with- out the underter as a middleman. As soon. as 1 definite terms of the proposed loan shall have been agreed upon in their entirety, banks and trust companies throughout the coun- try, it is understood, will be invited by a general announcement to become parties to the syndicate of unclerwrit- ors. It is regarded as certain that is. mi the membership of the syndicate will consist of hundreds of such. institu- • e banks will be given a small profit on the transaction:, somewhere in the neighborhood of one-half of one Der cent., it is believed. Upon this point there had been marked diverg- ence of views, the conimidsion's pre- vious reported attitude havang been that bankers and investors should pay the same price for the bonds. A great many American bankers, it ip; said, demurred to this, onthe ground that they would be put to ,considerable expense in handling the bonds,. end that reasonable return for their trouble was ne More than equitable. • The next big question to be settled, it was said, was whether munitions of war should be paid for out of the pro- ceeds of the loan. The COMMISC31011 is said to believe that the loan shonld cover munitions; a great many Ameri- can bankers think it should not. The merits of the often discussed matter of whether it is right or wrong to ship munitions abroad do not, it is said, enter into thie' question. What does enter vitally into the considera- tion of the matter, it is reported, is the attitude of certain banks which would oppose the loan, should it weer munitions shipments, but Whose oppo- sitioe would be converted to support in case the big fund provides payment cnly for commodities other than muni- tions,. . Upen this and other minor details the commission and American finan- ciers continued their conferences to- day. Vitrellington. Mutual I Fire Ins Co instablisbecl 1840. Ilea -4 QThce,Guaira, ONT.
