TIMBRE1 O JUBILEE,
BROOKLYN TABERNACLE FREED
FROM ITS FLOATING DEBT.
Joyous Music and lintiquosit sermon Cowl.
memorative of the .Evont..." Sing Ye to
the Lord for He Math Triumphed Glor.
irously"...The Tabernacle To -day Feel.
Much as Hoses DM After He Crossed
the Red Sea.
BROOKLYN, May 28:—This was one of
the greatest days in the history of the
Brooklyn Tabernacle, The music, in-
stramentaland. congregational, was oi
the most joyous type, the hymns, the
prayers and the sermon were celebrative
of the entire extinguishment of the float-
ing debt of $140,000, accumulated from
the disasters which required the building
of three immense churches. Text :
-Exodus 15: 20-21—"4nd Miriam, the
prophetess, the sister of Aaron, thok a
timbre' in her hand; and all the women
went out after her • with timbre's and
with dances. And Miriam answered
them, Sing ye to the Lord, for He hath
triumphed gloriously; the horse .and his
rider hath .1Ie thrown into the sea."
Sermonizers are naturally so busy in
getting the Israelites wifely through the
parted Red Sea, and the Egyptians sum -
merged in the returning waters, that but
httle time is ordinarily ' given to whet
the Lord's people did after they got well
up, high and dry on the beach. That
was the beach of the Red Sea, which is,
at its greatest width, two hundred
'miles, and at its least width,
Why is the adjective
"Red" used M describing this water?
It . is called the Red Sea because
the mountains on its western 5coast
look as though sprinkled with brick
dust, and the -water is colored with red
seaweed; and has red zoophyte and red
coral. This sea was cut by the keels of
Egyptian, Phoenician and Arabic ship-
ping. It was no insignificant pond or
puddle on the beach of which my text
calls us to stand. I hear • upon it the
sound of a tambourine, for which the
timbre' was only another name. An
instrument of music made out of a cir-
cular hoop, with pieces of metal fixed in
the sides of it, which made a jingling
sound, and over which hoop a piece of
parchment was distended, and this was
beaten by the knuckles of the perform-
er. The Israelites, standing on the beach
of the Red Sea, were making music on
their delivetance from • the pursuing
Egyptians, and I hear the Israelitish men,
with their deep bass voices, and I hear
the timbrel of Miriam, as she leads the
women in their jubilee. Rather lively
instrument, you say, for religious ser-
vice—the timbrel or tambourine.. But I
think God sanctioned it. And I rather
think we will have to put a little more
.of the festive into our religions ser-
vices, and drive out the dolorous
and funereal, and the day may come
when the timbrel will resurne
its place in the sanctuary. But that
which occupied the attention of ell the
men and:women of that Israelitish host
was the celebration of their victory.
They had crossed. They had triumphs
ed. They were free. More wonderful
was this victory and defeat • than when
the hosts of Richard overcame the hosts
of Saladin at A.zotus, than when at Ban-
nockburn, Scotland was set free' than
when the Earl or Northumberlandwas
driven back at Branham Moor, than
when at the battle of Wakefield, York
was slain; than when at Bosworth Field,
Richard was left dead, than when the
Athenians under- Miltiades at Marathon
put the Persians to flight, for this yia-
tory of my text was gained without
sword or catapult or spear. ' The wea-
pon was a lifted and prostrated sea.
"And Miriam,the prophetess, the -sister
of Aaron, took a timbrel • in her hand;
and all.the women went out after her
with timbrels and with dances. And
Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the
_ Lord, for He hath triumphed gloriously;
- the horse and his rider hath He thrown
into the sea."
Brooklyn Tabernacle to -day feels
much as Moses and Miriam did
when they stood on the banks of the
Red Sea after their safe emergence from
the waters. By the help of God and the
generosity of our friends here and 'else-
where, our $140,000 of floating church
debt is forever gone, and this
house,which, with the ground upon
which it 'stands, represents $410,000, I
this day re -consecrate to God the Father,
God the Son and God the Holy Ghost.
A stranger might ask how could this
Church get into debt to an :amount that
would build several large'churches. My
answer is; 'Waves of destruction, stout
mi. -any that ever rolled- across the Red
Sea of my' ted. • Examine all the pages
of "chureh hi4tory, and all the pages of
the world's history, and show me an or-
ganizatien, sacred or secular, that ever
had to blind three great structures, two
of them destroyed by fire. Take any of
your biggest life insurance companies,
or your biggest storehouses, or your big-
gest banks, or your biggest neWspaper
esta.blishments. and let them • have to
build three times on the same foundation
and it would cost them a Struggle, if not
demolition. My text - speaks of the
Red Sea once crossed, but one
Red Sea would not have so
much overcome us. It was with us
Red Sea after Red Sea. Three Red Seas!
.Yet, to -day, thanks be to God, we stand
on the -shore, and with organ and cor-
net, in absence of a timbrel, we chant:
"Sing,ye, unto the Lord, for He !lath
triumphed gloriously; the horse and his
rider hath He thrown into the sea." But
‘ylly the great expense of this structure?
My answer is, the immensity of it and
the firmness of. it. It cost over $34,000
to dig the cellar, before one stone was
laid, reaching as the foundation does
from street to street, and then the build-
ing of the house -was constructed in a
way, we are told by experienced build-
ers, who had nothing- to do with it, for
durability et foundation and walls such
as characterizes hardly any other build-
ing of this -city. To the day of .your
death and nine, and for our children
and grandchildren after us, it will stand
here a Roust: of God and a G -ate of
Hea.ven. -
For me, personally-, this is a Hine of
gladness more than 'tongue or pen or type
can ever tell. For 24 years 1 had been
building churches in Brooklyn and see•
ing them lairn down, until I felt I could
endure the stram no longer, and 1 had
written my resignation as pastorand had
appointed to read it two Sabbaths ago,
and close my work in Brooklyn for ever.
I telt that my.chief work was yet to be
done-, but I could not do it with the Alps
- on one shoulder and the, Himalayas on
the other. But God has interfered and
the way is clear, and I am here, and ex-
pect to be here until my work on earth is
done„ Why should I want to go away
from Brooklyn? I have no syriipati
wit h the popular sentiment which de -
our I sdoved city. Some people
mike i! a part of f lieir religion to (..xcori-
ate al id belittle the place of their residence,
and there has been nicive dania,ge,

habit the earth, and I feel honored in
beteg a citizen ofBrooklyn. and propose
to stay here until I join the population
in the Silent City Out yonder, now all
abloom with spring-flowers—sweet types
of resurrection!
As a church, we, from this day, make
new 'departure. We will preach, more
instructive sermons. We will offer more
faithful prayers. We will do better
work in all departments. We will, in
the autumn, resume our Lay College.
We will fill all the rooms of this magni-
ficent pile with Work for God and suffer-
ing humanity. More prayers have beea
Offered for this church, and on both sides
the sea, than for any church that has
ever existed, and all those prayers will
be answered. Clear the track for the
Brooklyn Tabernacle! "Sing ye to the
Lord, for He hath triumphed gloriously;
the horse and his rider hath He thrown
into the sea."
But do you not now really think that
the Miriam of my text rejoiced too soon?
Do you not think she ought to have
waited till the Israelitish host got clear
over to Canaan before she struck her
knuckles against the timbrel or tambour-
ine? Miriam! You do well to have the
tambourine ready, but, wait a little be-
fore ' you play - it. You are not
vet througn the journey from
gypt to the Promised Land. You
will yet have to drink out of the
bitter water of Mager, and many of

Objections to the tambourine, but do not
jingle its bells or thumb its tightened
. parchment until you are all through.
Ali:,,nme ‘y,efrriesnhdosu,teAdliviriacmtory
Was right. If
w
till we got
clear through the struggles of this life
we would never shout at all. Copy the
habit of Miriam and Moses. The mo-
ment you get a victory celebrate it. The
time and place to hold a jubilee for the
safe crossing of the Red Sea, is on its
beach and before you leave it. ft is
awful, the delayed hosannalish The be-
lated hallelujahs! The postponed dox-
ologies! The trains of ' thanksgiving
coining so long after they are due! It is
said, do not rejoice over a revival too
soon,for the new members might not hold
out. De not thank God the money
you made to -day, for to morrow you
might lose it all and more. Do not be
too grateful for your good health to -day,
for to-niorrow you might get the grippe.
Do not be too glad about your conver-
sion, for you might fall from grace. Do
not rejoice too s4oh, over a church's
deliverance, becaupe there might be
disasters yet to conie. Oh, let us have
no more adjourned gratitude. . The time
to thank God for a rescue from tenipta-
tion is the mornent after you have broken
the wine flask. The time to thank God
for your Salvation is the moment after
the first flash of pardon. The time to be
grateful for the comfort of your bereft
soul is the first moment of Christ's appear-
ance at the mausoleum of Lazsrus. Th
time for Miriam's tambourine to soul
its most jubilant note is th9 moment the
last Israelite puts his foot on the sand of
the parted inland ocean. Alas! that
when God's mercies have such swift
wings, our praises should have such
leaden feet.
Notice that Miriam's song in my text
had for its burden the overthrown cav-
alry. It was not so much the infantry
or the men on foot over whose defeat she
rejoiced with ringing timbrel, but over
the men on horseback—the mounted
troops! "The horse and his rider hath
'le thrown into the sea." There is some-
hing terrible in a cavalry charge. You
see it is not like a soldier afoot, thrusting
a bayonet, or striking with a sword,
:using nothing but the strength of his own
muscle and sinew, for the cavalryman
adds to the strength df his own arrn the
awful plunge of a steed at full gal-
lop. Tremendous arm of war is the
cavalry! Josephus says that in that host
that crotsed the Red Sea there were fifty
thousand cavalrymen, Epaminondas
rode into battle with 0000 cavalrymen,
and Alexander with seven thousand.
Marlborough depended upon his cavalry
for the trimilph at Blenheim. it was
not alone the suow that despoiled the
French armies in retreat from Moscow,
but the inounted Cossacks. Cavalrymen
decided the battles of Leuthen and Leip-
sic and Winchester and Hanover Court
House and Five Forks. No wonder that
Miriam was chiefly grateful that the
Egyptian cavalrymen., pursuing the
Israelities down to mid -way the Red Sea,
were unsaddled, unstirruped, unhorsed.
Mariam struck the center of the tambou-
rine with the full force of her hand
when she came to that bar of music.
"The horse and hie -rider hath He thrown
into the sea." Ah, my friends, it is the
in.ounted troubles that we most fear.
The little troubles we can endure. The
cinder in the eye, the splinter under the
,nail, the thorn in the foot, the social
slight, the mean fling, the invidious corn-
iparison, or the remarks that snub. The
annoyances and vexations on foot we
can conquer, but, alas! ,for the mounted
, disasters, the bereavements, the bank-
ruptcies, the precautions, the ap-
palling sicknesses, that charge up-
on us,- as it were, with up-
, lifted battle-axe or consuming
.thunderbOt of power. There are those
'among my hearers or readers who have
had a whOle regiment of mounted disas-
ters charging upon them. But fear uot.
The smallest horse -fly on the neck of
Pharaoh's war charger, passing between
the crystal palisades of the upheaved
Red Sea, Was not more easily drowned
by the falling waters than the fifty thou-
sand hehneted and plumed riders on the
backs of the fifty thousand. neighing and
caparisoned war chargers. And I have
to tell you, Oh, child of God, that the
Lord, who is on your side now and for-
ever, has at His disposaland under His
command, all waters,allwinds, all light-
nings, all time, and all eternity. Come,
look me in the face while I utter the
wiorti God commands me to speak to you:
"No weapoa formed against you shall
prosper." Don't throw away your tam-
bourine. You will want it as sure as you
sit there and I stand here, a,nd the
tune you will play on it, whether
standing on Beach of Time or Beach
of Eternity, will be the tune that Miriam
played when she cried: "Sing ye to the
Lord, for He hath triumphed gloriously;
the horse and his rider hath He thrown
into the sea." I expect to have a good
laugh with You in Heaven, for the Bible
says in Luke, flth chapter, 21st verse:
"Blessed are ye that weep now, for ye
shall laugh.' We shall not spend all
eternity psalm singing, but sometnnee,
in review of the past, as Christ says, we
shall laugh. ,There is nothing Wrong in
laughter. It all depends on what you
laugh at, and when you laugh, and how
you laugh. Nothing, it seems, will more
thoroughly kindle our heavenly hilarities
after we have got inside the pearly gates,
than to see how, in this world, we got
scared at things which ought not to have
frightened us at all. How often we work
ourselves up into a great stew about
nothing. The Red Sea before may be
deep and the Egyptian cavalry behind us
may be well mounted, but if we trust the
Lord, we will go through no more hurt
i
by the water then when n boyhood we
r,olled our ganaents to the knee,and bare -

Lay hold of the Lord in prayer, and you
wiil go free as did Richard Cecil with
twenty pounds f missionary money in
his saddle bag , and the highwaymen
grabbed his hor e by the bridle and told
him to deliver, nd he prayed God for
safety, and sud -enly one of the robbers
said, "Mr. Ce il, I once heard you
preach. Boys, et the gentleman go."
. But let me cri icise Miriam a little for
the instrument f music she employed in
tt e divine servi e on the sandy beach.
Why not take ome other instrument?
The harp was a acred instrument, why
did she not tak that? The cymbal was
a sacred instill ent, why did . she not
take that? The umpet was a sacred in-
strument, why did she i not take that?
Amid that grea host there must have
been musical instruments used in
religious serv ce. No. She took
that which she iked the best, and on
which she could best express her
gratulation ove a nation's rescae, _first
through the r treat of the waves , of
the Red Sea. nd then through the
clapping of th hands of their deetruc-
tion. So I wit idrew my criticism of
Miriam. Let ev ryone take -her, or his,
best Mode of di ne worship and celebra-
tion. My idea if heaven is that it is a
place where we an do as we please and
have everything we want. Of course,
we will do no hing wrong and. want
nothing _ ha rinful '
How much of he material and physi-
cal will finally i ake up the heavenly
world, I know n t, but I think Gabriel
will have his umpet, and David his
harp, and Hand 1 his organ, and Thal -
berg his piano, and the great Nome-
g-' ian performer iis violin, and Miriam
her timbrel, a i d as 1 cannot make
masic on any of them, I think I will
, move around an ong all of them and
.' listen. But thei • are our friends of the
Scotch Covenant r Church, who do not
, like musical inst uments at all in divine
: worship, and they need not have them.

THE LITEaATURE OF YACHTING.
songs Wh ch F- 1 ilowers of the Royal
Sport ove to sing.
The ocean has nany songs which were
born of it, and besides the "shanty"
songs which go' rn the toil of the sailor,
there are many- which are songs pure
and simple, as witness - the song of
"Crusing Down on the Coast of the:High
Barberee." This song is not one which
tehs of the galla t deeds of Decatur,
ihough -it is sung by sailors in the Am-
erican Navy to-Ucty, but tells of how:
"Two lofty frigates from old England came,
Blow
one was the. Prince of uther and the other Prince of
high,,low low, nd so sailed we.
ite°
\Va
Cruising down on the
ast of the High Barberee."
Who in the dejpths of the deep blue
sea the Prince of 'Luther was or is, let
those who can find out. He is not in the
"Almanack de G that" .
Now yachting,', too, has its songs, and
though yachtsniei are prone to sing the
songs of other d- ys and other -people,.
there are songs fOr long cruises or times
when the spirit !moves. • Then, for in-
stance may be heard the song of:
"The!eup, the cup, may we never give it up,"
And 'SA rattling breeze from out the West."
Yachting is- gra:dually but surely get-
ting a literature Of its own. The royal
sport began . when the Royal Charles
sailed the Royal James in the first yacht,
race down the Thames. It was a tenta-
tive race, howe 'rer, until the America
went to Cowes. ow millions of dollars
and all,the best rtsources of naval archi-
tecture have beenl expended to keen and
win the international. trophy. From
1861 to 1893 is too short a stretch to make
a, literature or td evolve characteristic
songs, but the process of evolution is go-
ing on and it will not be many years be-
fore the songs of yachting and the litera-
ture thereof will be pet:tiller and dis-
tinct.
