word..TJnto Zerubbabel—"This vision
was to inspire the people with confi-
dence in their leaders as divinely sus-
tained, and the leaders with confidence
in their divine appointment to the work
and to lead all to the true source of
strength and success. Zerubbabel felt
unequal to his great task. He had to
make bricks without straw. How could
he and his high priest Jeshua make a
great nation out of this feeble folk and
build a glorious temple out of this pov-
erty, with all the world against thorn?"
Not by might—Of thy own. Not by
their armies, for they had none. Nor
by power—Authority from others. But
by my spirit—The providence, author-
ity, power, and energy of the Most High.
No secular arm, no human prudence, no
earthly policy, no suits at law, shall
ever be used for the founding, exten-
sion and preservation of My church.—
Clarke. Zerubbabel need not be dis-
heartened because of his weakness.
Man's weakness is no obstacle, for God's

and then for the Christian Ohurch,which

plished not by human resources, but by
the spirit of God.—Cam. Bib.
7. 0 great mountain—This was a fi-

removed. At that very time God was
influencing Darius to refuse the desires
of the Samaritans and give His favor

people with patriotism, zeal and energy.

sheep, searches for the lost coin, restores
the lost prodigal (Luke 15); delights to
use the little, foolish, weak, base de-
spised things (1 Cor. 1. 27, 28), and he

A Fine Pen Picture of Rim by Mr.
Joseph Hatton,
A London cable: Sir Henry Irving
died suddenly at Bradford to -night, The
death of the distinguished actor was
totally unexpected. Ife was engaged h11.
a tour of the provinces, appearing
nightly, and a few days ago spoke at
O public meeting in advocacy of the
movement for a municipal theatre.
Sir Henry played as usual to-niglit at
Bradford and returned from the theatre
to his hotel, where he expired suddenly,
after an attack of syncope, at 11.30.
His last appearance was as Becket in
Lord Tennyson's play of that name.
The .Associated Press to -night received
the tenoning telegram from Sir Henry's
manager, Bram Stoker:
"Very terrible news. Sir Henry Irving
had an attack of syncope after returning
from the theatre to the hotel to -night,
turd died enrittenly."
A Pen Picture.
Joseph Hatton once in 1882 drew a
pen picture of the great actor -manager
which is worthy of preservation:
"It is a pale, somewhat ascetic face,
with busy eyebrows, dark, dreamy eyes,
O nose that indicates gentleness rather
than strength, a thin upper lip, a mouth
opposed to all ideas of sensuousness,
but nervous and seusitive, a strong jaw
and chin, and a head luelined to droop

shortly before his departure with the

America was made in 1884, and before
it dosed Mr. Irving delivered an address

1887, Irving left Liverpool for a third

request • of the War Department, Mr. Ir-
ving took his company to West Point,
where with Miss Terry he gave "The
Merchant of Venice" in Elizabethan
dress and without scenery. Returning
to the Lyceum for a short season, he
took "Faust" on tour. In November,

a little, as is often the case with men
of studious habit. There is a great
individuality in the whole figure, end in
the face a rare mobility which photo-
graphy fails to oaech. * * Though the
popular idea is rather to associate trag-
edy with the face and manner of Irv-
ing, there is nothing sunnier than his
• smile. It lights up all his counten-
ance and reveals his soul in his eyes;
but it is like the sunshine that bursts
for a moment from a cloud, and disap-
pears, to leave the landscape again in
shadows, flecked here and there with
fleeting reminiscences of tile sun," •

lish-speaking actors, was no stranger to

Lombard street, London. lie made his
first appear0000 on the boards of the
Sunderland Theatre on September 20,

the Princess Theatre, London, whore he

to July, 1800, Irving _was engaged at
the Prince of Wales Theatre, Liverpool,
and. then he returned to Mane

Roses, which elutracter he sustained fin

Ilia representation of "Hamlet" at the
Lyceum Theatre (October 31, 1874) pro-
duced a great sensation Among the play -
going public, and opinion was at first
mueh divided as to the merits of the
performances but it is now generaliy ad-
mitted that by his rendering of this and
the other Shakespeaeinn parts Mr. Irving
placed himself at the head of English
tragediane. "Hamlet" WAS played for
two hundred nights, the longeet run of
the play on reeord. Irving appeared in
"Macbeth" in 1873, "Othello" in 1870,
and next as Philip in Tetinysinee drama
of "Queen Mary,' Afterwards Mr. Irv-
ing played Ids tehakespeerian parts in the
provinees, itt Seotland and in IV01411d.

David. Delano said: "in the death of
Sir Henry Irving our stage liaa lost its
greatest; inspiration, and there is•no one
to tel' his place. He Was not only a
great actor,but a great stage director,
and, greatest of all, a. faithful friend. In
these dark days of the drama, both in
Europe and Amerka, all its webi wiehers
will deeply mourn Ids loss."
. Daniel Freiman said: "Sir Henry Ir-
vine's death is most 'regrettable. He
simply waken himeell to death. He
might have lived longer, had he not
worked so hard. Ins 8000088 09 an actor
was a triumph over certain physical lim-
itations, ms great intellectnal qualities
established him as the greatest Shake-
spearian interpreter in England."
The following telegram was received
last night from William Winter, tho dra-
melte critic, dated at Los -Angeles,. Cal.,
"Sir Henry Irving's death is a universal
bereavement. lie was a great man and
the greatest of actors,"
Other notable productions of later
years were. Henry VIIT. and King Lear,
1892; Beekett, 3803; revivals of Faust
and Beckett and Tim Merchant of Vein
lee, 1894; Tennysonni -Ring Arthur in
1895; Cymbelline, 1306; Madame Sons'

In 3809 Sir Henry withdrew 'from the
management of the Lyceum, and Since
then has transferred his plays to Druey
Lane, his great pro:ha:tin of Sardines
Dante in 1003 being really it stupendous
undertaking,.
In 1803 Sir Henry brought cut bis book
on The Drama, and. several years ago
he eentributed to tht Nineteenth Cen-
tury int artiele on his art, 'When Pol-
lock's translation of Diderot's Paradox
of Acting was brought out, Sir Henry
wrote the introduction for that work.
He was knighted in 1865.
