The Philipplan Jailer -Acts lei les

Commentary. -I, An evil spirit cast
out (ve. Idle.) The missionaries mile
their home at the house of Lydia, (see
V. 15) while they eoutinued to preeelt
the goapel at Philippi. They had, good
suecese, and in this city the fihst 011114-
hut church in Europe was founded. But
their great victories did not come with-
out gres 01)Pesitiee. There was in the
city a cirtmun damsel 'Ate was A fortune-
teller, who brought her masters great
gain. This slave girl llowed the mks-
monaries and (tried after them. Pant
was grieved because of this and com-
mantled theevilspirit to come out of
her. "And he came out the same hour"
(e. 1$.) Why wits Paul grieved? "1.
Because her presence was troublesome to
him. 2. Because it might appear that he
was in alliance with her. 3. Because
\that she did was for gain and was a
base imposition. 4. Because her state
was one of bondage and delusion. 5.
Because the system under welch she
• was twang was then holding a leer
part of the pagan world in bondage.'
11. Paul and Silas arrested and impri-
soned (vs. 10-24.) After the evil spirit
had loft the girl she no longer Mee ew-
er to make money for her masters by
fertune-telling. This made her masters
angry, and they seized Paul and 1,1its
aud dragged them before the magis-
trates into the marketplace, where legal
liminess was transacted. "It WAS diffi-
cult to frame a charge against them.
Had a pig been stolen from them there
was a leer in their behalf, but there was
no compensation for a lost demon"-
1V1redon. , "The Phillippian ma,gletrates
were excited against the missionaries by
the accusation that they had attacked
the religion of Rome," An excited mob
rose up, violently tore the clothes off
of the missionaries, and beat them "with
rode (2 Cor, 11; 25.) The Roman cus-
tom was to inflict blows on t,he naked
body, and the punishment was not lim-
ited to "forty stripes save one," like
that of the Jews. Then all sore and
bleeding they were tbinst into thee"in-
ner prison," a dungeon, probably under-
ground, and their feet were made fast
"in the stocks." The etocks consisted
of a heavy piece of wood, with holes in-

that written to the church at EbiliPel,
born out of his experienee of suffering.

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS.

could not sleep, but they could sing.
With feet fast in the stocks, with bleed-
ing furrows from stripes, down ia
horrible dungeon, clamp with unerieo
wells, elm with putrid air, font rronm
filth, and black with darkness, these
men of God could, like one of the eel
propeets, pray and give thanks as "afore -
time" vhen the way was unclouded
(Dan. 0, 10). Trials received front a
Father's hand (John IS, 11) are some-
thing. "given" (PAL 1, 29); stiell are
"PO" (f, Pet. 1, 7), awl ebouid be
chariots in which to mount to victory.
Fox, in his Book of Martyrs, tells of
more joy in Bonner's coal -hole and in
the Lollard's tower than ever was known
in the pa lace of any king. The martyrs
"felt e heaven of joy while in a hell of
pain."
U. Deliverance. "Great earthepeake"
26). "Wane and chains are nothing
against God's potter, Oppressiop, pay -
city, temptation, elekness, sorrow,
whatever holds fest a child of Gee, dis-
appears when Clod speaks. The disciple
of Christ may expect deliverance from
trial as well as strength in trial,"
M. Speaking. "They spoke unto him
the word of the Lord" (v. 32). We
should know how to point sinners to the
Saviour, how to show them that "the
Lord bath laid on him the iniquity of
us all" (Isa. 53; 5). Tell them he "hare
our sins in his own body on the tree"
(1 Peter 2: 24), that we might never
die (jail 6: 51, 52; lle 26). Tell them
he that' believeth "bath eternal life and
ceilidh not into judgment" John 5: 24,
R. Ye,. Tell them the blood of Jesus
Chrust eleanseth from all sin (1. John
1: 7, 9) ; that be ever liveth to inter-
cede for us (Heb. 7: 25); that he is
coming again to receive us to himself
(John 14: 1-3),
IV. Salvation. "He was bap-
tized" (e. 33). Knowledge ef &Leger Is
not deliverance; remorse is not repent-
ance; conviction is not conversion; sub-
mission is not salvation; earnestness is
not enlightenment.. Agony, repentance,
conviction, earnest prayer will not save
us. Faith is the inetrpment that gapes.
Christ. is the Savioor. He 'ffwas eece
offered to bear the sins of many" (HO.
9: 28), He made peace with God (E_ple
2: 14), ge is the way opened to Pod
(John 14: 13). We believe it, Faith
does not change God and make hint gra-
ciously do something to save us, but
faith apprehends what his grace has
done and accepts it:, Faith is not beg-
ging God; it is believing Christ has died,
and that God will save, and then that
God has saved. A little girl fell into a
cistern, and her mother hastened to the
rescue. The child, explaining how she
was saved,- said, "I reached up as far
as ever I could, and ,,mother did the
rest. Faith is the hand 'stretched out
to him who eaves to the uttermost.
V. Service. "Washed their stripes"
(v, 33). Works do not induce faith, but
faith produces works. A missionary in
Morocco wrote: "Once we were taken by
a soldier before a governor, who ordered
us taken to Basha, but we escaped and
fled from` the city at sunset, sleeping
on the cobble stonce paying the entraeee
to an eaclosed villege. Tice we were
detained by wiaked mei, who threpeened
us with weapons and stones. In one of
these instances we were driven, at night-
fall into a. Silty enclosure, open to the
falling rain and exposed to keen winds
from the snows of the Atlas Moputains.
We preached Christ to a group that

The sinner Saved by grace is anxious to
serve. A. C. AL

Thrilling Experiences of John Deck-

Dover, Eng -lend, July 4. -The British
steamer Whakatane running to New
Zealand, was towed here to -day in a
sinking condition anti beached. The
Whalcatane was in collision off Dunges
noes in a fog with the French steamer;
Circe. The latter was damaged, but was
able to proceed on her voyage to Ratters
dam. lek) lives were lost. The Makatane
had 300 persons aboard. She also car-
ried a large number of valuable horses,
It was an exceedingly narrow escape
from a terrible disaster. Immediately af-
ter the vessels struck the Circe, with the
help of another steamer, took the Whit-
katene in tow, but the hawsers broke.
The Circe then steamed to Dover for as-
sistance, •
Several tugs put out and proceeded at
top speed to the sinking steamer. When
the liner arrived here she presented au
extraordinary appearance, with her
dein lying deep in the water. All the
crew were mustered forward. Six salvage
tugs and other vessels were lending as-
sistance in the difficult operation of
towing the sinking steamer to the beach.
The Circe had crashed into her amid-
ships, making a great rent in her side,
Ravalli, Mont., July 5. -The work
of loading the Pablo buffaloes at
Ronan for shipment to Canada was
marked on Saturday by a thrilling ad-
venture, in which a home was gored
to death and its rider escaped a like
fate only by a miracle. Decker's
thrilling ride to what seemed certain
death took place when a shaggy mon-
arch of the herd wheeled suddenly
and in blind fury charged toward the
rider. Travelling with the speed of
the wind, the beast tore down upon
Deeker's horse. The rider was nit -
bale to swing his steed clear of the
beast's path and In an instant the horse
was impaled upon the buffalo's horns.
With an exhibition of etrelgth almost
beyond belief, front the ground and half
tarrying, half pushing them, he bore
them across the °omit for a distance of
three hundred yards or more. With al-
most certain death staring him in the
face, Decker attempted to draw his re-
volver and kill the beast, but the wea-
pon caught and his efforts to release it
were !tithe, While five other riders un-

Sudden Collapse of a Lock Wall
Buries Workmen Beneath Tons of
Debris -Incoming Tide Makes
Work ,pf Rescue Very Dififcult,
Newport, Eng., July 5. -It is esti-
mated that twenty men perished to -day
by the sudden collapse of the west
wall of the new lock at the entrance
to the Alexandra dock, where fifty
men were working in a trench sixth
feet deep, prepariner for the laying of a
concrete fouremhen. Without warning
the heavy shoring themeere gave way, the
entire structure collapsing and carrying
down with it thousands of tons of earth,
railway lines, pally cars and four trav-
elling cranes.
The men at the bottom of the
trench had Ito change to escape, but
many of those workiqg nearer tee sur-
face were tininjured.
Of the fifty men in the trench
twenty-six have been accounted for.
The work of the rescuers began imme-
diately after the collapse, mid three men
were taken out alive. The bodies of
some of the dead also were rescued.
Late to -night, four men, still living;
were pinned in the debris in the trench.
The incoming tide inside the work of
rescue very difficult.
At midnight, aided by electric lights
and flare lamps, time rescuers were still
busy with their work. Thousands of
persons had gathered to watch the
weird scene.
Conversations were being held with a
few of the imprisoned men with the aid
of speaking tubes, and stimulants and
cigarettes were passed down to them;
but there was little hope of rescuing the
victims, as the removal of the debris
that was pinning them down was likely
to cause further falls of earth and
beams,
Up to midnight eleven persons had
been extricated dead or injured, and it
was believed that there still were six-
teen bodies under the debris,

Stamford, Comm., July 4. -Because he
flew the British flag on his vessel here
to -day, Captain Merriam, of the British
schooner King Josiah, aroused the ire
of some patriotic Americans, and. they
made complaint to the police. Chief of
Police Brennan went down aud had a
talk with Captainiterriatn, and the cap-
tain hauled down the British flag.
"It is ridienlouts," he said, "to find
fault with the display of my flag. 1
ran it up as a, mark of respect to the
United States, I have done the same
thing many times in Boston, New York
and other American ports, and no com-
plaint was made, In fact, it would be
disrespectful to the United States if 1
didn't run up my flag on this holiday."
Captain Merriam is a Nova Scotian.
The schooner is a two -master, and the
owner is Josiah Saley, of Nova. Scotia.

Summer tourists in Ireland have been

also declare that the campaign has af-

English mistresses are now afraid to

The inhabitants of several seaside
