PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS,
Christ's anSwer to the catch question,
"Which is the first emumandement of
allia (v. 28) was a sentence from, tbe
law twice repeated, "Thou shalt love"
(vs, 30-31). Our lesson on love reminds
ue ;
I. Love Goa fondly. "Thou shalt love
the Lord thy God with all thy heart"
(v. 30). Heart affection is a personal
attathment to a 'person Gdel mad

ing into bis face dare cry, "Abbe.

redeemed slave, who cries, "My Lord and
my God" (John ex, 28); love him as
bride, who says, "my beloved" (S. of S.
i. 14). When Cyrus, the conqueror of
Asia, was reviewing his troops, the wife
of Tigrauus was beside him among the
captives. As the erowd pressed to see
the conqueror, Tigranus approached and.
offered a thousand talents to redeem his
wife. Afterward, as a conmauy of peo-
ple were praising Cyrus, Tigranus said
to his wife, "Wbat did you think of
Jaim?" "I did not see him," was the
reply. "Upon whom were your eyes
placed?" asked Tigranus. The wife
looked fondly into ber husband's face
and. answered, "Upon him who offered
a thousand, talents to ransom me."
Ti. Love God ardently. "With all tby
soul" (v. 30). Soulessuche, is snotty-
-1h life and is .sometimes so
eilsle to obey this commandment *nly as
the love of God has feet been shed
abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost
(Rom. v. 5.) "To love God is to have our
desires and purposes mingle with God's
lesires and purposes. Love is an inter.
mingling of soul with soul, so that they
are no more twain, but one. The test
of character in loving God, and the bene-
fit from loving: God, will depend on one's
conception of him," Ileart .... soul -

this fourfold enumeration as a command
to devote all the faculties to the love of
God. ---Cook.

law defines our duty to God; the 'second,
our duty to our neighbor. Is like -Of a
like nature, embracing the whole of our
duty to man. Neighbor as thysele-See
Lev. xlx, 18. The Jews understood. neigh -
45). To love Goa with tbe
life, is to love actively, intensely, "hi
deed and in truth" (1 John, 3, 18). To
be so ennanored of God that service is
delight and suffering counted as glory
(Rom. 5, 3). It is not "a, man abstain-
ing from this or that evil indulgeuce af-
ter the binding force of carnal command -
silents, but an exhaustive, holy, loving,
spontaneous loyalty, that is ceaselessly
bubbling up and out, flowing through
all our thoughts, words and deeds in an
institutive obedience that anticipates all
legal enactments by fulfilling the spirit
of the law."
III. Loyd God intelligently. "With all
tey mind" (v. 30). Dr. Lowry Asbury
says, "This means with all the mental
powers. As the heart is the seat of
the affections, and the soul is the seat
of life so the mind is the seat of ration-

they strength" (v. 30). "Love nothing
beside Ged but what you love for God."
Love Him above all and in all and
through all. This love is "utterly beyond
the products of huttian nature; neither
heredity, tor culture, nor ceremonials,
nor rigid discipline, nor literary senti-
ment, nor poetic genius produce this
heavenly affected. It is a river from the
heart of God, poured upon the world in
the atonement, opened in our hearts by
regeneration and under the Pentecostal
baptism of the Holy Spirit filling the
banks of our being until all the inner
senses are deluged with its holy energy."
Anna Downey tells of a student in De
Pauw University who went to the altar
seeking something from God. A teacher
knelt beside him and said, "You have
been so earnest in Christian work, have
you not the witnees that you Are God's
child?" "Yes." "Are you not coneeerated
to God?" "I believe I am." "Whatare
yon seeking?" The man looked up with
intense desire in his face and said, "Ob.
professor, 1 do so long to love God."
The Holy Spirit had awakened in him an
unspeakable longing to love God sup-
remely, to tame the blessing of perfect
love. He believed for it and his prayer
was answered. "Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself" (v. 31). Weigle
bor is from a word signifying "close by."
The question, "Who is my neighbor?"
was answered by Jesus in the parable of
the good Samaritan (Luke x. 30-37). "As
thyself" (v. 31.) Love to bide thy neigh-
bor's failing as thou dost hide thine own
(Neh. xiii. 37), Love to speak of thy
neighbor's ercellencies as thou dost of
thine Own (Phil. iv. villa Love to see
thy neighbor prosper as thou dost love
to see thyself (Rom. xii. 15; Prose iii.
28.) Love to do for your neigbbor ex-
actly what you would do for yorself

BIG THUNDER STORM.
TORONTO WAS 'THE CENTRE OF IT
ON SATURDAY AFTERNOON.,
RaM Was General Throughout Province
of Ontario, but Heaviest Fall Was in
Toronto and Vicirity-Eight-tenths
of an Inch Fell.
Toronto, Sept. 24. -The thunderstorm
of Saturday afternoon was general'
throughout the Province of Ontario, but
the heaviest storm occurred along the
north shore of Lake Ontario and in To-
t route and. vicinity. There was little dam-
age done in Toronto, though twe or
three lightning flashes were vivid en-
ough and were followed by' loud enough
I crashes of thunder to cause timid peo-
ple much anxiety. The rainfall, ;while
not the heaviest of the season, was the
heaviest for September, and the Obser-
vatory people measure the fall at eight -
tenths of an inch.
The storm caused some damage to the
summer suits and beautiful millinery
which adorned the ladies at the Wood-
bine races and the rain soaked. a good
many of the men.
About 3,000 people were caught, in
an uncomfortable manner at the
lacrosse game, where the storm broke
in considerable force after the first
quarter of the game had bean played.
The game was finished on a field al-
most covered by water, while the grand
stand seats were too damp to be sat on

MIRO REPORT IS MADE
ON WATER POWERS Of ONTARIO.
Hydro -Electric Commission Reports on the Lake
Huron and Georgian Bay Districts,
The third report of the hydr0-eloo-
trie commission deals with the Lake
Huron and Georgian. Bay districts. The
province is divided into eight divisions,
and the two reports and the first and
eeeond reports dealt with the Niagara
and the Trent Valley districts, rapese-
tively.
In the Georgian Bay and Lake Huron
districts the commission report the de-
mand for power at over 1,600 horse-
power.
careful study has been made of the
present probable demands for electric
power developments capable of supply -
lug these deniands and five develop -
have appeered to be worthy of
serious) thnsideration, manly:
114aitheed River Development.
(1) Some four miles east of Goderich
on the Maitland River nt the Ox. Bow
a development of 80 feet head can be
obtained by the eonstruction of a rather
expensive dam, which will provide stor-
age sufficient to take care of aov rea-
sonable daily peak load within the
limit of the temporary overload capa-
city.
Saugeen River Development,
(2) At Southampton there is at pre-
sent a small development made by the
Saugeen Light and Power Co.'under 13
feet head, amountiug to some 200 horse-
power, and it is proposed to construct
a dam below the Indian Reserve creat-
ing a development under 40 feet head,
wait% would drown out the present ono
above mentioned.
Belem River (Eugenia Falls).
(3) The development proposed at tais
point, as an independent plant, would
probably be for about 1,000 horseumver,
which is the estimated 24 -hours lew-
water capacity. but by combinhig this
development with that on the Severn
River, about to be desoribed, ibis fea-
sible to instal at Eugenia Falls an
equipment of 2,267 horsepower, with a
spare unit of 1,133 added. By this emu-
binelion, making use of storage capa-
city, which ean easily be created, the
above installation can be employed for
carrying all the excess of total load in
plants above 4,000 horsepower, eantinu-
ous power to be drawn from the Sev-
ern 'liver development. It will read-
ily be seen that, this will reduce cperat-
ing expenses for the combined system
by allowing complete shutting meth
of this plant for at least twelve biters
per day and over Sunday.
Severn River (Big Chute).
(4) A development at this point, will
be less expensive than ordinarily, ow-
ing to the mall investment necassary
Lor head works and canal. Although the
power available dulling an tocasional
low water period may fall slightly be-
low 4,000 horsepower, the amount can
be safely depended upon during ordi-
nary years and the estimates are for
works of this capacity, with ;the usual
reserve unit.
(5) On the South River it small de-
velopment has been estimated on, for
the supply of the industrial demands of
IsTortli Day, which might Rho furnish
lighting current for Powassau and W-
inder,
Undeveloped LocatiOns.
Among the possible undeveloped to -
cations are mentioned the Maitland
River, Tueenia, Falls, the Big Chute
of the Severn River, the Sturgeon
River and Falls, the Moon, Muskoka,
Magnetawan, French and Wahmtpitne
Rivera
I AU estimate of cost of development
has been made by a test at Collingwood,
and the saving on the present steam
operation noted. The capital cost is il-
lustrated by undertakings now operat-
ing at Sudbury, 3120,000; BrAecibridg,e,
375,500; Orillia, 3250,000,

GUILTY OF PEONAGE.
FATHER AND SON AND ' FIVE
OTHERS CONVICTED,
Heavy Punishment Imposed -Imprison-
ment and Fine for Each Accused of
Maltreating Negro Laborers.
Cape Girardeau, Sept. 23.-Charies
M. Smith, Charles M. Smith, jun., and
five tenants of the Smith .farms, in
New Madrid County, were found guilty
of peonage in the Federal Court here
to -day.
Federal Judge Pollock, before whom
the cases were tried, sentenced the
elder Smith to three years and six
months' imprisonment and imposed' a
fiee of 33,000. The son was given, a
similar fine and sentenced to imprison-
ment for two years. The five tenants,
who acted as guards and overseers,
were given , terms of imprisonment
ranging f rom one to two years, and
fined from 3150 to 3300.
Conviction of the Smiths and their
overseers was the result of the first
peonage trial ever held in Missouri.
and records show only six similar
eases ever brought before a court in the
United States.
It was shown that the Smiths had
brought, about 40 negroes from Mein.
plus, Cairo, and other river points to
their farms in New Madrid County to
convert it vast area of swampy houl
in -
Lo tillable soil. Testimony of some of
the negroes as to how they were worked
ant whipped from daylight until dark
and aerded at night like sheep in mis-
erable quarters, reeking in filth, was re.
vo
One negro, blinded in one eye, told
hew his sight, was partially destroyed
with it whip in tbe bands of one of the
guards, while another, who hobbled
into court ot crutches, exhibited an
ankle which, he testified, had been
enesbed with ft club by one of the over -
score.
The defence tried to prove tbat, owing
to ill -feeling against negroes in the conn.
ty, it WitS IrleeCRSftry for the protection
of their laborers that they be guarded
at all times by armed men.
