two hu dred and forty and five singing
men and einging women."
TM best mnsic has bsen rendered under

thin of was given by Paul and Silas
whei they sang praises to God and the
pris ners heard them. The Scotch Cov-
enai ters, hounded by the dogs of persecu-
1
tien sang the psalms of David with more
epirit than they have ever since been
rendered. ,The captivein the text nad

they could find, amid all theirtrials, two
hundred and -forty and five singing men
and eineing'women then.in this day of
gospel sunlight and free from all perse-

el leen an women willing to sing the
1
praises of : od. All - our churches need
east -tail on this subject. Those who can

leave yo ever noticed the construction
cf the hesman throat as indicative of
a hat God ine.ane us to do with. it? In
sesly an ordinary throat and lungs there
q; -o 14 -dieect -muscles and 30 indirect
maecles that can produce a very great
variety of ;sounds. What does that mean?
It means that you should sing! Do you
aappose that God, who gives us such a
masical inetrument as that, intends us
to keep it shut? Suppose some great
tyrant should get posseesion of the musi-
cal instruments of the world and should
lack up the organ of Westminster Abbey,
and the organ of Lucerne, and the organ
es Haarlem, and the organ at Freiburg,
brit' all the other great musical instru-
ments of the world.. You would call such
a man as that a monster, anceyet you
nre mbre wicked if, with the human
voice, a musical instrument of more
wonderful adaptation than all the musi-
cal instruments that map ever created,
sou shut it against the praise of God
Let those refuse to siing
Who never knew eur Clod,
But:children of the heavenly King
Should speak their joys abroad.
Music seems to have ben born in the
I
caul of the natural worl . The omnipo-
tont voice with, which od commanded
the world into being se ms to linger yet
with its majesty and sw ethess, and you
hear it in the grainfield, in the swoop of
the wind amid the mou tain faetnesees,
In the canary's warble a Id the thunder
shock, in the brook's tinkle and the
ocean's paean. There are soft cadences in
nature and loud notes, s ine of which we
cannot hear at all and o hers that are so
terrific that we cannot a predate there.
The Judgment Day's Ireat March.
The animalculae have heir music, aid
the ,spicula of hay an 1 the globule of
water are as eertainly re onant with the
voice of God as the highest heavens in
Which the armies of the redeemed °ale-
leate their victories. When the breath of
the flower strikes the air, and the wing
of the firefly cleaves it, t ere is sound and
there is melody; and as to those utter-
anoes of nature which sem harsh and
overwhelming, it is as hen you stand
in the midst of a great o chestra, and the
sound ahnost rends your ear because you
are too near to catch the blending of the
music. So, my friends, e stand toe near
the desolating storm a d the frightful
whirlwind to catch the lending of the
mesh), but when that music rises to
whore God is, and the invisible beings
a ho float above us, then I suppose the
harmony is as sweet as 1 Is tremendous.
In thejudgment day, th 4 day of tumult
and terror, there will be no dissonance
to those who oan appreci te the music.
It will be as when sometimes a great
organist, in executing so e is great pieee,
breaks down the instrument upon which
he is playing the music. So,, when the
great • march of the j dgment day is
played under the hand of earthquake,
and storm and conflagrat on, the world
itsself will break down with the music
that is played on it. Th fact is, we are
all deaf, or we should understand that
the -whole universe is butone harmeny-s

of a great instrument on which God's
fingers play the music of the spheres.

makia musical signs above the Musical
text When tae Jews catme.from, their
distant homes. to the great festivals at
Jerusalem, they brought narp and timbrel
and trumpet and poured along the great
Judaean nighways et river of harmony
until in ana around thteinple the
wealth of a nation's long -lid gladness
had:accumulated. In our day we have a

One Mall to make the hymn, another
man to make the tune, another man to
pleY it on the piano did an tiler man to
sing it. Not so in Bible tines, Miriam,
the sister of Moses, after the passage of
the Red Sea, coroposad a doxology,set it
to music, clapped it en a cymbal and at
the same time tesag ie. David, the psalm-
ist, was at the same time poet, musical
composer,, harpist and singer, and the
majority of hie rhythm goes vibrating
through all the ages.,
Husk) of 13 ble Times.
There were in Bib e times stringed ins-
steuments-a harp o three Fittings played
by fret and bow, a harp of tan sbrings
reeounding onirto hee fingers of the per -
tomer. Them ther was the crooked
trumpet, fashiOned ut of the horn of the
ox or the ram. T en there were the
sietrum and the ymbals, clapped in
the donee or beaten in the march. There
were 4,000 Levites, ha best men of the
country, whose-onl business it was to
loek etas, the musi of the temple.
These 4,000'Levit s were divided into
tWo classeiii and fficiated on different
days. Can; you i ()gine the harmony
when these yehite obed Levitcs, before
the symbols of God e presence and by the
resitoking altdrs an: the candlesticks that
sprang upward - a d branched Out like
trees of gold.and nder the wings of the
cherubim, chanted the Ono Hundred and
Thirty-stxth !Peals) of . David? Do you
know how it, was one? One part of that
great choir stood p and ohanted, "Oh,
give • thanks, unta the Lord, for he is
good!" Then the itther part of the choir,
- standing in some ther part of the tem-
' pie, would come In with the response,
"For his mercy e dueeth forever." Thep
the first paet wo ld take up the song
again . and, say, "theto him who only
,doeth great wonde s." The other part of
-the chole would come: in with :over -
Whelming respon e, • "For his meroy
endureth forever, ' •until in the latter
pert of the s'eng, ihe musio floating back-
ward and forward, harmony grappling
with harmony, every trumpet .sounding,
every bosom hea Ing, one part of this
great white Irobes choir would lift the
anthem, "Oh, giv thanks unto the God
of heaven!" and the other part of the
Levite choir wo ld come in with the
response, "For bi mercy endureth for-
ever."
- But I am glad • to know that all
through the , ages there has been great
attention paid tosacred music. Ambros-
ius, Augustine, Gregory .the Great, Char-
lemagne, gee° it their mighty influence,
iind in our day the best musical genius
. is throwing itself on the altars of God.
Handel and Mozart and Bach and Dur-
ant() and Wolf and scores of other men
and women have given the .best part of
their genius to church innate. A truth in
words is not half so mighty as it truth in
son. 'Luther's sermons have been for-
t
gotIen, but the "Judgment Hymn" he
composed is resounding yet elk:through
Chr Stendom. .
Appropriate Church Music.
I congratulate • the world and the
1 chu oh on the advancement made in this
' art -the Edinburgh societies for the isn-
pro einent of music, the Swiss singing
shel ties, the Eeeter Hall concerts, the
trio nial musical convocation at -Dussel-
dor , Germany, and BirminghaMs. Eng-
land, the controversies of music at
. Mmhicli and Leipsio, the Handel and
Ha dn and Harmonic anccMozart socie-
ties of this country, the acaciemies of
mu. io in Neve York, Brooklyn, Boston,
i
Obi rleston, New Orleans, Chicago and
1 eve y city whicb has any enterprise.
Now, my friends, how are we to decide
wh t- is appropriate, especially for church
epri io? There may be a great many
differences of opinion. In some of the
I churches they prefer a trained choir; in
1 ethers they prefer the melodeon, the
I harp, the cornet, the organ; in other:
I Plaees they think these things are the
1 invention of the devil, Some would have
a musical instrument played so loud you
cannot stand it, and others would have
it played .so Heft you cannot hear it.
Some think a musical instrument ought
to be played only in the interstices of
Worship, and then with indescribable
Softness, while others are not satisfied
Onless there be startling contrasts and
staccato passage e that make the audience
jump, with grea eyes and hair on end,
as from a vision of the witch of Entice,.
I,3ut, while there may be great varieties
of opinion in regard to music, it seems to
rue that the general spirit of the word, of
God indicates what ought to be the great
characteristics of church music.
, And I remark, in the first place, a
piorninant characteristic oUght to be
• adaptivenese to devotion. Music that may:
be appropriate for a =meet hall, or the_
opera house, or the drawing room, may
be inappropriate in - church. Glees,
madrigala, ballads, may be as innocent
ae psalms in their places. But church
nausie basonly one design, and that is
devotion, and that which comes with the
toss, the swing and the display of an
operahouse is a hindrance to the 'woe-
ehip. . From such performances we go
aWay saying a"What spiendid.execution I
`Did you ever hear such a soprano? Which
of these solos 'did you' like the better?"
When, if we had been rightly wrought
upon, we would have gone away saying:
"Oh, hOw my soul was lifted 'up in the
presence of God while they were singing
thatefirst hymn! I never had such raptur •
ousl views of Jesus Christ as my Saviour
as when they were singing that last
doxology."1
' Music as a Help to Devotion.
1* friends, there is an everlasting
, Moitnation between music as an art and
iltrualei as a help to devotion. Though a
,achuniann:oomposed it, though a Mozart
played it, though a Sontag sang it, away_
with it tf it does not make the heart bet-
ter and -honor Christ. Why should we
rob the programmes of worldly gayety
when we have so many appropriate songs
and tunes composed in Our own day, as
wellas that magnificent inheritance of
church psalmody which has =me down
:fragrant with the devotions of other gen-
eretions-tunes no more worn out than
they were when . our great-grandfathers
climbed up on them from the ohuroh pew
o glory? Dear old souls, how they used
to sing! When they were cheerful, our
randfatheis and grandmottiers used lie
Ing -. "Colchester." .When they , were
miitative, then the boarded meeting
owe ranig with "South, Street" and
'St. Edmund's." Were they struck
hrough with great tenderness, • they
ng 'Woodstock." Were they wrapped
n visions of the glory of the ohurch,
hey sang "Zion." Were they overborne
ith the love and glory of Quiet, they
ra
asunder." Born as we f hive been, . amid
"Ariel." And in thole days there
ere certain tunes inarriea to certain
ymns,. and they have liyed in peace a
t w411e, these two ,old people, and
e have no right to divorce them. "What
od bath joined together Jet no man put
this great wealth ot chnich muelo, aug-
mented lby the compositions of artists in
our day, we ought not to be temPted out
of the sphere of Christian harmony and
try to seek uncensecrated sounds. It isi
absurd for a millienaire to steal.

No Dull Music Wanted.
A other charaoteriatio must be spirit

midi nee like the water from a rook-
olea , bright, sparkling. If all the other
part of the ohuroh service is dtillSiclo net
hay the musics dull. With so many
thri ling things to sing about, away with
all drawling and stupidity. There is
not Ing that makes me so nervous as to
sit i a pulpit and look off on an audi-
ence with their eyes three-fourths closed,
and their lips almost shut, naunsbling
, the sralsei of God. lemeng one of any
jour eys I preached to an audience of
2,001 or 3,900 people, and all the tnimio
the made together • did not equal one
skvl rk! People d� not sleep at a corona-
tion do not let us sleep when we come
to 'a Saviour's crowning,
In order to a proper discharge of this
dub', let us stand up, save as age or
wea ness or fatigue excuses us. Seated
in w *easy pew we cannot do this duty
half o well as when upright we throve
our hole body into it, Let our gong be
like n acclamation of victory. You have
12'
a rig. 6 to sing -do ot surrender your
.prerogative. If in t e performance of
your duty, or the a ternpt at it, you
shou d lose your pla e in the -musical
smile and be one 0 below when you
ough to be one 0 abojve, or you should
cons in half a bar beIilnd. we will ex-
cuse -ou! Still, Ibis better to do as Paul,
- says nd sing "with sethe spirit and the
untie standing also."
.Ag in, I remark oh rch music must be
congiegatIonal. This opportunity must
be b uglat down Wi hin the range of
the hole audience. A song that the
wors ippers cannot sing is of no more
use tt them than a s mon in Choctaw.
What an easy kind o church it must be
whor the minister do s all the preaching
. and he elders all tho praying and the
choir all the singing! There are but very
few churches where there are "two hun-
dred nd for#y. and five singing men and
singi g women." In some churches it is
alino. t considered a diaturbance if it man
let oi t his ,'voice to full compass, and the
pecplt get up on tiptoe and look over
betw en the spring i hats and wonder
what that Mali is making all that noise

do y u, expect to sing the song of Moses

at al if some of:the best anthems of.hea-

keep us from diszaoing it by our in-

OUR SCOT6H INDIANS.
Signe of the Ifu4,21 of Scotch Blood
Tu. Chero ee Veinn.
Che •okees come w 11 by their stubborn-
ness, heir shrewdness and their love of
cuntr versy. As Indians they had these
traits to begin with. As the reeult of a
strou infusion of &etch blood they add-
ed to he strength of the characteristics.
It is Scotch historY that after the bat-
tle of Culloden many Scothhmen left
their i alive land rather than accept Eng-
lish s Vereignty. It is Cherokee history
that u =hers of these sturdy Scots found
homes and wives with the Cherokee Na -
Con b fore the enforeed migration of the
tribe f •om Georgia td the Indian TerrIte-
ry. J hn Boss was ne of these Scotch
exiles vho accepted herokee citizenship.
He be ame a chief and was given the
name f "Coo -is -coo -pe." When the na-
tlion n oved to the t rritory, one of the
distric s into which he reservation, was
divide for govern ent purposes was
named "doo-is-coo-e " Ross founded a
family which beam powerful in Shoo-
kee co •ells. He an, 1 14s son Warp fre-
quent Visitors to Washington and had

Scotch exile, is one of the oilicerslof the
nation today. ,
The Adairs SAT another infinential
Cherokee clan established 1.47 a Scotch -
man who came over after the battle of
Culloden. As the descendants of Adair

tion, McNair is another of the familiar
Scotch names introdnced int( the Chero-

ants lives on a magnificent estate of 1,500
acres in the beautiful valley! the Grand
river. Duncan is another e cotch name
found among the Chei'okee.,si. The bead
and front of Cherokee 01 position to

claim to Cherokee citizenship would not
be guessed by any physical 1 chariteteris-

"JACK, WHERE BE YE?"
Cruet Grime Played In the Comps of
the Le mberuzen
So full of peril is the lumberman's life
that even his sports must be spiced with
danger, or they pall on his tastes. On
the long winter nights a crue • game, call-
ed "Jack, Where Be Ye?" ie sometimes
played. The middle of the lergest room
in the camp is cleared. Two imen are se-
curely blindfolded, and, havilig previous-
ly drawn lots for the first "w ack," they
kneel .011 the floor. In his right hand each
man holds a stout leather strap, at the
end. of which is a heavy. iron:buckle. In
the left hand of each man is held by the
'
end another leather strap or rope. The
left hands Must either be kepi' on or very
near the floor, and the strap that is held
between them kept taut. This guaran-
tees a uniform distance between the com-
batants. They are qnite near enough to
hurt each other severely, soMetimes fee
tally.
Now, the man who has been lucky
enough to draw the first call sings out,
"Jack, where be ye?'',
to .whidh,his oppo-
nent' must immediately answer, "Here I
be." Then the first,man strikes where
he imagines his opponent to be with the
heavy leather strap. 'If he hits hiS man,
he is entitled to another blow --may call
out again, "jack, where be ye?" and the
other must answer, "Here I:be." This
may- be continued until the, first man
misses. when he must take his turn at be-
ing struck.
The others form a ring around the two
lighters, bets are made, and each faction
encourages and applauds its chosen fight-
er. There are regular rounds, and the
game is usually kept up until one or the
other is carried off the scene seriously
wounded. •
Hurd heads can stand bard knocks, and
volunteers for the cruel sport are easily
found. At the beginning there is usually
no malice. A hard blow is struck -it is
expected, it is the game.' But it not in-
frequently happens that the game devel-
ops into a fierce duel.
Burmese Marriage
Of all the iaurrriage rites of which one
ever heard those of Burma ,bear away
the palm for conciseness and sweet sim-
plicity. Here it is upon the dusky lady
that the pleasing duties of ceurtship de-
volve. She sees a youth whole she deems
calculated to make her happy, and forth-
with offers him a stick of candy. Ifehe
accepts her proposal, he premptly eats
the token of affection and they are there-
by made man and wife. Thee is no fur- e
ther ceremony, and no witnesses are nec-
essary. In the act of eating alone this
most primitive marriage rite consists.
ut if, on the contrary, the youth is not
Willing, he assures her that Oiat particu-
lar khad of candy is not to his taste, and
the roaiden must seek elsewleere for one
more appreciative of her, catlidy and her
affections.
Mixed Curds.
On this side of the Kentudky river, in
this county, lives a man named Joe Curd.
On tb.e other side of the stream lives a
man named Joe ,Ourd, he being a nephew
6f the Joe (turd living on thiS side of the
river. Many years ago they married site,
ters. Both now have grandehildren. A
man out here offers a chromc to any one
who can unravel the relationship exist-
ing between the grandchildren of Joe
Curd, Sr., and his nephews Joe Curd,
Jr., and vice versa.-HarrodSburg Dem-
ocrat.
The Man Who Was.
In a case which recently' Came up for
hearing a certain witness wae called. On
the mention of his name a Mon rose up
and said, "Ile's -gone." "Where is he
goue?" said the judge. "It is hiis duty to
he here." "My lord," was the solemn re-
ply, "1 wadna care to commit mysel' as
to whaur he's gone, but he's dice.', -Scot-
tish Life and Humor, by W. 8intlair.
