them (XL ele)--It was natural that such
a remarkable occurrence as the conver-
sion of a large number of Gentiles
should be reported at Jerusalem. The
church :. in dernsaleva-This was the
original .church of Christianity; the mo-
ther ehurele not the church of Ilonae.
There were Christian churches founded
in nanny places, mililch exist to the pre-
sent day, before Rome heard the gospel.
--Clarke. They sent forth -To aid the
disciples :and. to give sanction and direc-
the nto the work. They had done a sim-
. ilar thing at the time of the revival,
which occurred in Samaria (Acts 8; 144.

comforted and encouraged them. "We
owe everything to the people who en-
• renrage us. You owe very 'Hale to the
man who Merely finds fault etrith you."
-Parker. Purpose of heart -There were
many temptattons and much to endure.
They needed strong decision of character.
Cleave -Adhere firmly, constantly, faith
fully to the Lord. As the limpet ad-
heres to the rock, 49 that no rushing oi
the tide or dashing of the waves can
move it, so ought the believer to rming
to Jesus Christ. In order to cleave unto
the Lord we meet 1. Forsake and re-
nounce all opposed to God. 2. Embrace
the teetheof the gospel. 3. Be truly
convertea. 4. TAve a holy life. 5. Dave
a heart "i'lilhel" with the love ot God.

PRACTICAL APP,LICATIONS.
Faithful Service.
I. Preaching. 1. "They....trevelled.,
preaehiug" (v. (9). "They" who. mete
"preachtag" Were not apostles, nor dee,.
eons, nor men sent by the eh malt at
Jerusalem, but simple disciples eon,
stralued by love to tell the gospel story.
If we will let him, God will use ordin-
ary men and ordinary methods. He
does not demand genius nor eloquence,
A Plaia matt cau narrate it feet or com-
municate a conviction.
2. "Penciling the word" (v. 19). Vies°
apostolic Ministers did not apologize for
the Beek, (lid not criticize it, never said
anything about the "errancy" of the
word, did not GYM lake a text. Origeu
is said to be the first one who did that;
they preached the word. The -whole Old
Testament was their text. Peter's ser-
mon at Pentamost contains many it quo-
tation front the SOriptures. Stephatt's set -
mon is is a valuable epitome of the his-
tory of the Jews from the time of Abra-
ham to the time of Christ.
•3. "Preaohieg the Lord Jesus" (v. 20).
How Luke loved to ring the changes .on
the way the personal Christ was promia-
ant in the preaching of the early dis-
ceples. These traveling ministers came
"preaching the Lord Jesus," and a greet
number believed and turned "unto the
Lord" (v. 21).
11. Piety: "Barnabae was a good
man" (vs. 22, 24). His name IllArtlig "son
of exhortation." He sold his land and
gave the money to the apoeLles (Acts 4.
MI 37, It. V.). Ho had been it brother
to Saul when the disoeples were afraid of
dm (9, 27). lie was glad when he eaw
:he "grace of God" extended to the Gen-
tiles (v, 23). In the midst of honoree
work for the Master he thought of one
who might be more efficiene than he (v.
26). There was no Jealousy in his heart,
for be was a -good man," large -hearted,
osophy may boast of her wise menrge.l
Oberaloninded and melectarian.
world may boast of her great men, but
the boast of Christianity is her .good
men.
Ht. Power. 1. Fulness of the .Spit -ii.
'Full of the Holy Spirit," (v. 24). Speak-
ing of Sottrgeon, P. 8. Henna „sari
"The secret of his power was in the .fact
that, like Barnabas, he was full of the
[Vey Spirit. -There were men in London
mote skilful logicians, more brilliant as
rhetoricians, more acute as metaphysi-
cians, but his strength was in the com-
pleteness of his conseeratiou and the ful-
ness of the indwelling Spirit. He had
power laith God aad with men because
he was in touch with the throne."
2. Fulness of faith. "And of faith" (v.
24). Love is the greatest think in tbia.
world, but faith isthefirst thing in the
world. Faith accepts God and then lete
acid choose. Ita faith we are saved (Aka
16; 31), by faith we live (Rom. -1, 17),
by faith we please God (Mb. 11. 0), by
faith we overcome the world (I. John
4). Charles Canis orthi received a let-
ter on the envelope of old& was writ-
e n, "The man who bel teen Cod." 1 te
said: "1 wood rathee have that sai,l. of
me than to have fifty million dollars,
ir to fill any high office on the globe."
3. Fulness of Cluist. "Called Chris.
-lane" (v. 26). Some one has transposed
.he words "Christian man" to a man in
Ohriet. Paul, refetring to hie trimeht-
teen to the third heaven, nye, "I knew
t man in Chrbet" Coe. 12, 2). Web-
ster defines it Christian aa one wile** in-
ward andoutward Jif o conforms ta the
doetrines of Christ. Some say Christian
means a little Christ, as a shrine of Di-
trut was called a Dinmaeae, a little
Diana. As these shrines were reprevieng-
qtives of the great image, so the Chris-
tian should be a representation et Owlet,

Ottawa, &pen 19. -The interference al
American labor organizations in Canadiao
industrial affairs is severely censured in
the majority report presented to the
Labor Department to -day by the Board
of Conciliation and Inquiry into the dis-
pute between the Dominion Coal Com-
pany and its nten, relative to the refusal
of the company to recognize the Ameri-
can Mine Workers' Union.
The report, which is signed by Judge
Wallace, of Halifax, finds that the com-
pany was justified in its refusal to re-
cognize international unionism, on the
groend that it could not deal with two
labor organizations at the same time,
namely, the Provincial Workmen's Asso-
ciation and the United Mine Workers'
Union.

as if it Royal Commission to investigate
the misdemeanors of Montreal's alder,

not much account. When Judge Cannon
took his seat this morning there were no

neither his honer nor anyone else took
any particular/interest iu the matter.
His Honor adjourned the case for a
week mid wound up by saying "And I
order that the City of Montreal immed-

announced that the seven aldermen uu,
