Intemperance Drumming the Deal March of Immortal Souls. TOETDRESAND LOSSES OF IHEBEI4.TE8 IgrECIAS. TILEOBAM TO TUB DISFJLTCn.l Helena, Mont., August 11. Tho Rev. T. De Witt Talmaee, D. D., preached hero to-day to a vast congregation. Taking for his text, "Who slew all these?" II Kings x, 10, he preached a powerful discourse on "Drunkenness, the Nation's Curse." Ho said: I see a long row of baskets coming up to ward the palace of King Jehu. I am some what inquisitive to find out what is in the baskets. I look In and I find the gory beads of 70 slain princes. As the baskets arrive at the gate of the palace, the heads ore thrown into two heaps, one on either side of the gate. In the morning the King comes out, and he looks upon the bleeding, ghastly heads of the massacred princes. Looking on either side of the gate, he cries out, with a ringing emphasis, "Who slew all these?" We have, my friends, lived to see a more fearful massacre. There is no use in taking your time in trying to give you statistics about the devastation ana ruin ana ioe death which strong drink has wrought in this country. Statistics do not seem to mean anything. We are so hardened under these statistics that the fact that 50,000 more men are slain, or 60,000 less men are slain, seems to make no positive impression on the public mind. Suffice it to say that intem perance has slain an innumerable company of princes the children of God's royal fam ily; and at the gate of every neighborhood there are two heaps of the slain; and at the door of the household there are two heaps of the slain; ana at the door of the legislative hall there are two heaps of the slain; and at the door of the university there are two heaps of the slain; and at the gate of this nation there are two HEAPS OF THE SLAIN. When I look upon the desolation, I am almost frantic with the scene, while I cry out, "Who slew all these?" I can answer that question in half a minute. The min isters of Christ who have given no warning, the courts of law that have offered the licensure, the women who cive stronc drink on New Year's Cay, the fathers and mothers who have rum on the sideboard, the hundreds of thousands of Christian men and women in the land who are stolid in their indifference on this subject thev slew all thesel I propose in this discourse to tell you what I think are the sorrows and the doom of the drunkard, so that you to whom I speak may not come to the torment. Someone says: "You had better let those subjects alone." Why. my brethren, we would be glad to let them alone if they would let us alone; but when I have in my pocket now four requests saying, "Pray for my husband, pray lor my son, pray lor my brother, pray for my friend, who is the cap tive of strong drink," I reply, we are ready to let that question alone when it is willing to let us alone; but when it stands blocking up the way to heaven, and keeping multi tudes away from Christ and heaven, I dare not be silent, lest the Lord require their blood at my hands. I think the subject has been kept back very much by the merriment people make over those slain by strong drink. I used to be very merry over these things, having a keeu sense of the ludicrous. There was something very grotesque in the gait of a drunkard. It is not so now; for I saw in one of the streets of- Philadelphia a sight that changed the whole subject to me. TRAGEDY, NOT COMEDY. There was a young man being led home. He was very much intoxicated he was raving with intoxication. Two young men were leading him along. The boys hooted in the street, men laughed, women sneered; but I happened to be very near the door where he went in it was the door of his father's house. I saw him go up stairs! I heard him shouting, hooting and blas pheming. He had lost his hat, and the merriment increased with the mob until he came up to the door, and as the door was opened his mother came out. When I heard her cry that took all the comedy away from the scene. Since that time when I see a man walking through the street, reeling, the comedy is all gone, and it is a tragedy of tears and groans and heartbreaks. Never make any fun around me about the gro tesqueness of x drunkard. Alas for his home! The first suffering of the drunkard is in the loss of his good name. God has so ar ranged it that no man ever loses his good name except through his own act. All the hatred ot man and all the assaults of devils cannot destroy a man's good uame, if be really maintains his integrity. If a man is industrious and pure and Christian, God looks alter him. Although he may be bom barded for 20 or 30 years, his integrity is never lost and his good name is never sacri ficed. No force on earth or in hell can cap ture such a Gibraltar. Put when it is said of a man, "He drinks," and it can be proved, then what employer wants him for a work man? what store wants him for a clerk? what church wants him for a member? who will trust him? what dying man would ap point him his executor? He may have been 40 years in building up his reputation it goes down. Letters of recommendation, the backing up of business firms A BRILLIANT ANCESTBY ' cannot save him. The world shies oS. Why? It is whispered all through the com munity, "He drinks;, he drinks." That blasts him. When a man loses his reputa tion for sobriety he might as well be at the bottom of the sex There are men here who have their good name as their only capital. You are now achieving your own livelihood, under God, by your own right arm. Now look out that there is no doubt of your so--briely. Do not create any suspicion by going in and out of immoral places, or by any odor of your breath, or by any glare of your eye, or by any unnatural flush of your cheek. You cannot afford to do it, for your good name is your only capital, and when that is blasted with the reputation of taking strong drink, all is gone. Another loss which the inebriate suffers is that of self-respect Just as soon as a man wakes up and finds that he is a captive of strong drink he feels demeaned. I do not care how reckless he acts. He may say, "I don't care;" he does care. He cannot look a pure man in the eye, unless it is with posi tive force of resolution. Three-fourths of his nature is destroyed; his self-sespectgone; he says things he would not otherwise shy; lie does things he would not otherwise do. When a man is cine-tenths gone with strong drink, the first thing he wants to do is to persuade you tbat he can stop any time he wants to. He cannot. The Philistines have bound him hand and foot, and shorn his locks, and put out his eyes, and are making him grind in the mill of a great horror. He cannot stop. I will prove it. He knows that his course is bringing disgrace and ruin on himself. He loves himself. If be could ttop he would. He knows his course is bringing ruin upon his family. He loves them. He would stop if he could. He can not Perhaps he could three months or a year ago; not now. Just ask him to stop Joramonth. He cannot; he knows he can hot, so he does not try. BEYOND BEFOBM. I had a friend who for 15 years was going down under this evil habit He bad large means. He had given thousands ot dollars to Bible societies and reformatory institutions of all sorts. He was very genial and very generous and very lovable, find whenever he talked about this evil habit he-would My, "I can. stop mj time" Hut he kept going on. going on, down, down, down. His family would say, "I wish you would stop." "Why," he would reply, "I can stop any time if I want to." After a while he bad delirium tremens; be had it twice; and yet after that he said, "I could stop at any time if I wanted to."' He is dead now. What killed him? Burnt Bum! And yet among his last utterances was, "I can stop at anytime." He did not stop it, because he could not stop it Oh, there is a point in inebriation beyond which, if a man goes, hn cannot stop I , One of these victims said to a Christian man, "Sir, if I were told that I couldn't get a drink until to-morrow night unless I had all ray fingers cut off, I would say, 'Bring the hatchet and cut' them off now.'" I'have a dear lriend in Philadelphia, whose nephew came to him one day, and when he was exhorted about his evil habit, said, "Uncle, I can't give it up. If there stood a cannon, and it was loaded, and a glass of wine sat on the mouth of that cannon, and I knew that yon would fire itoff just as Icame up and took the glass, I would start, for I must have it" Ob, it is a sad thing for a man to wake up in this life and feel that he is a captive. He says: "I could have got rid of this once, but I can't now. I might have lived an honorable life and died a Christian death; but there is no hope for me now; there is no escape for me. Dead, but not buried. I am a walking corpse. I am an apparition of what I once was. I am a caged immortal, beating against the wires of my cage in this direction and fh that direc tion; beating against the cage until there is blood on the wires and blood apon my soul, yet not able to get out Destroyed, without remedy!" LOSS OF USEFULNESS. I go further, and say that the inebriate suffers from the loss ot his usefulness. Do you not recognize the fact that many of those who are now cantives of strong drink only a little while ago were foremost in the churches and in reformatory institutions? Do you not know that sometimes they knelt in the faniilv circle? Do vou cot know that they prayed in public, and tome of them carried around the holy wine ot sacramental days? Oh, yes, they stood in the very front rank, but they gradually fell away. And now what do you suppose is the feeling of such a man as that, when he thinks ot his dishonored vows and the dishonored sacra ment when he thinks of what he might have been and of what he is now? Do such men laugh and seem verv merry? All, there is, down in the depths of their soul, a vpry heavy weight Do not wonder that they sometimes see strange thintrs and act very roughly in the household. You would not blame them at all if you knew what they suffer. Do not tell such as that there is no future punishment Do not tell him there is no such place as helL He knows there is. He is there nowl I go on, and say that the inebriate suf fers from the loss of physical health. The older men in the congregation may remem ber that some years ago Dr. Sewell went through this country and electrified the pcdplc by his lectures, in which he showed the effects of alcohol on the human stomachi He had seven or eight diagrams by which he showed the devastation of strong drink upon the physical system. There were thousands of people that turned back from that ulcerous sketch swearing eternal abstinence from everything that could in toxicate. A DBUNKABD'S TOBTUEES. God only knows what the drunkard suf fers. Pain files on every nerve, and travels every muscle, and gnaws every bone, and burns with every flame, and stings with every poison, and pulls at him with every torture. What reptiles crawl o'ver his creeping limbs! What fiends stand by his mianigm puiowi wnat groans tear nis ear! What horrors shiver through his soul! Talkof the rack, talk of the inquisi tion, talk of the funeral pvre, talk of the crushing Juggernaut he eels them all at once. Have you ever been in the ward of the hospital where these inebriates are dying, the stench of their wounds driving back the attendants, their voices sounding through the night? The keeper comes up and says. "Hush, now, be stilL Stop making all this noise!" But it is effectual only for a moment, 'for as soon as the keeper is gone they begin again: "Oh, God! oh, God! Help! help! Bum! Give me rum! Help! Take them off me! Take them off me! Take them off me! Ob, God!" And then they shriek, and they rave, and they pluck out their hair by handsful, and bite their naiIsT into the quick, and then they groan, and they shriek, and they blaspheme, ond they ask the keepers to kill them. "Stab me. Smother me. Strangle me. Take the devils offmel" Ob, it is no fancy sketch. That thing is going on in hospitals, aye, it is go ing on in some of the finest residences of every neighborhood on this continent It went on last night while you Blept, and I tell you further that this is going to be the death that some of you will die. I know it I see it coming. A DESFOILEB OF HOMES. Oh, is there anything that will so destroy a man for this life and damn him for the life that is to come? I hate that strong drink. With all the concentrated energies ot my soul, I hate it Do you tell me that'a man can be happy when he knows that he is breaking his wile's heart and clothing his children with rags? Why, there are on the streets of our cities to-day little children, barefooted, uncombed and unkemDt: want ,on every patch ot their faded dress and on every wrinKle ot tnelr prematurely old countenances, who would have been in churches to-day, and as well clad as you are, but for the fact that rum destroyed their parents and drove them into the grave. Oh, rum I thou foe of God, thou despoiler of homes, thou recruiting officer of the pit, I abhor thee! But my subject takes a deeper tone, and that is that the inebriate suffers from the loss of the soul. The Bible intimates that in the fnture world, if we are unforgiven here, our bad passions and appetites, unre strained, will go along with us and make our torment there. So that I suppose tbat when an inebriate wakes up in this lost world he will feel an infinite thirst clawing on him. Now, down in the world, although ho may have been very poor, he could beg or he could steal cents with which to get that which would slake his thirst for a little while; but in eternity, where Is the rum to come from? Dives could not get one drop of water. Jfrom what chalice of eternal fires will the hot lips of the drunkard drain his draught? No one to. brew it .No one to mix it No one to pour it No one to fetch it Millions of worlds then for the dregs which the young man just now slung on the saw-dusted floor of the restaurant Millions of worlds now for the rind thrown out from the punch bowl of an earthly ban quet Dives cried for water. The inebriate cries for rum. Oh, the deep, exhausting, exasperating EVEBLASTINO THIBST of the drunkard in hellt Why, if a fiend came up to earth for some infernal work in a grog shop, and should go back taking on its wing just one drop of that for which the inebriate in the lost world longs, what ex citement it would make there. Put that one drop from off the fiend's wing on the tip of the tongue or the destroyed inebriate; let the liquid brightness just touch it, let the drop be very small if it only have in it the smack ot aiconouc drlnK, let tbat drop just touch the lost inebriate in the lost world, and he would spring to his feet and cry: "That is rum! ahal that is rum!" and it would wake up the echoes of the damned: "Give me rum! Give me rum! Give me rum!" In the future world I do not believe that it will be the absence of God tbat will make the drunkard's sorrow; I do not believe that it will be the absence of holiness; I think it will be the ataenio of strong drink. Ob, "look not vupon us wine when it is red, when it moveth itself aright in the cup, tor at last, it biteth like a serpent, and it sting eth like an adder." But I want, in conclusion, to say one thing personal, for I do not like a sermon that has no personalities in it Perhaps this has not had tbat fault already. I want to say to those who are the victims of strong drink, that while I declare that there was n point beyond which a man could not stop, I want to tell you that while a man cannot stop in his own strength, the Lord God. by His grace, can help him to stop at any time, -Yean agol wmua roeaia New York where there were many men who had been reclaimed from drunkenness. I heard their testimony, and for the first.tlme in my life there flashed out a truth X never understood. They said: "We were victims of strong drink. We tried to give it up, but always failed; but somehow, since we gave our hearts to Christ. He has taken care of us." I believe that the time will toon come when the grace of God. will show its power here not only to save man's soul, but his body, and reconstruct, purify, elevate and redeem it I verily believe that, although you feel grappling at the roots of your tongues an. almost omnipotent thirst, if you will this moment give your heart to God He will help you, by His grace, to conquer. Try it It is YOUB LAST CHANCE. I have looked off upon the desolation. Sit ting under my ministry there are people in awful peril from strong drink, and, judging from ordinary circumstances, there is not 1 chance in 5,000 that they will get clear of it I see men in this congregation of whom I must make the remark that, if they do not change their course within ten years, they will, as to their bodies, lie down in drunk ards graves; and as to their souls, lie down in a drunkard's perdition. I know that it is an awful thing to say, but I can't help saying it Oh, bewarel You have not yet been captured. Bewarel As ye open the door of vour wine closet to-day, may that decanter flash out upon yon, "Beware!" And when you pour the beverage into the glass, in the foam at the top, in white let ters, let there be spelled out to your soul, "Beware!" When the books at judgment are open and 10,000,000 drunkards come up to get their doom, I want yon to bear wit ness tbat I to-dav, in the tear of God, and in the love for your soul, told you 'with all affection and with all kindness to beware of that which has already ex erted its influence upon your family, blow ing out some of its lights a premonition of the blackness of darkness forever. Oh, if you could only hear this moment, intemper ance, with drunkard's bones, drumming on the head of the wine cask the Dead March of immortal souls, methinks the very glance of a winecup would make you shudder, and the color of the liquor would make you think of the blood of the soul, and the foam on top of the cup would remind you of the froth on the maniac's lip, and you would go home from this service and kneel down and pray God that, rather than your children should become captives of this evil habit, vou would like to carry them out some bright spring day to the cemetery and put them away to the last sleep until at the call of the south wind the flowers would come up all over the grave sweet prophecies of tue resurrection, uoa nas a oaim lor sucn a wound; but what flower of comfort ever grew on the blasted heath of a drunkard's grave? JACK THE PEEPER CAPTURED. One of the Women He Frightened' Diet of I er Terror. Elizabeth, N. J., August 11. "Jack the Peeper," who has created consternation among the residents of this section for weeks, was captured yesterday. He gives the name of Daniel Cobb, and several wo men have identified him as the man who frightened them nearly to death. The fel low has been entering houses by night and making his way to the bedrooms of the wo men. He has made no attempt at robbery. Lately he .got into the room of Mrs. John McCarthy, of No. 353 Wall street, Eliza bethport, who was lying sick in bed. He stepped over Mrs. McCarthy's mother, who lay asleep on the floor by her daughter's bedside, and laid his hand upon Airs. Mc Carthy's shoulder. The sick woman was greatly shocked, and died on Tuesday last. The rascal pulled all the clothes off the bed occupied by Mrs. O'Hara, of Livingston street, and she ran screaming into the street in her night dress. Shortly before that he climbed into the room of Miss Emma Weis logel, at Fifth street and East Jersey avenue, and awoke her. He threatened her with a pistol, and locked the door leading to her fiarents' room. Miss Weislogel screamed so ustily, however, that the "Peeper" jumped dut ot a window. A score, or similar episodes are charged up against the prisoner. Entitled to the Best.

A REMARKABLE EXPOSE. The public are interested in pure food. They also appreciate honorable dealing. When the manufacturer of an article which is" to go into the stomach as food comes up before them in the newspapers with advertisements of his wares, they demand that he shall be both truthful and honest in his representations. It goes without saying that the manufacturer who willingly or fraudulently misrepresents as to endorsements, , which he may have received can lay no claim to the patronage of the people whom he has thus sought to deceive. " False in one, false in all," is the watchword in such a case. It may be a matter of interest to housekeepers to know that a certain Baking Powder Co. has published in its adver tisementsjthroughout the couj ry, false statements representing 'that the National Board of health, at Washington, had endors ed its brand of baking powder. In order that the public may fully appreciate the extent and character of these misrepresentations and understand to what depth a manufacturer can descend for the purpose of seeking favor or patronage at the hands of the public and prejudicing the public against the well-established brands of others, the following extract is given from a letter recently addressed to the Royal Baking Powder Company, of New York, by the Sepsetary of the National Board of Health, which will serve to 'mane plain the attempted deception : . EXTRACT FROM LETTER. National Board oe Health. Washington, D. C, April 25, 1889. 'I have read the papers with astonishment at the unbounded assurance displayed by the Price Baking Powder Co., in attempting to use the National Board of Health for the purpose of giving credit to Dr. Price's cream baking powder. I am unwilling that this Board should be used foi -me purpose of misleaafng the pubjic in the slightest degree. I have to sayt therefore, that this Board never, in any manner, shape, or form, 'commended,' 'indorsed,' or 'favorably reported on Dr. Price's Baking Powder,' or declared that 'with the exception of Dr. Price's Baking Powder every sample was found to be more or less drugged or tainted,' and any statement that conveys such an impression, directly or indirectly, is wholly untrue. "W. P.

It uses the following language : "Dr. Price's Baking Powder contains matter insoluble in water, 24.1Q per cent consisting of starch aad tartrate of lime ; ' a mixture, ulterated 20 percent."

Where dangerous operations have been previously undertaken my remedy has cured In a short time. My remedies cure, in fact, most of the chronic diseases where no other medi cine gives help. Daily sick persons come to me and complain that they have spent 160, 1100, 11,000 among doctors, but were not S cents' worth better.

Those who doubt the genuineness of our reductions are most earnestly and sincerely requested to call and be convinced. We want all persons to set themselves right in this matter, for the re'sult will certainly bear out our statement. The attention of gentlemen wishing to buy clothing is called to our. Special , J) t ) y Counter -OF- Men's Fine Dress and Bijsmess Suits. Worth $15. ' Ask for these two counters as soon as 70a enter our store. You are at liberty to take any Suit for 7 50, any pair of Pants for 5i 50. There are light patterns and dark patterns; checks, plaids, stripes, mixtures and solid colorings; Cassimeres, Worsteds, Serges, Flannels, Wide Wales, Corkscrews, Pinhead Worsteds, Diagonals, etc Any garment selected from these two counters means a clear saving of 50 per cent to the buyer. 1 BOYS' CLOTHING DEPARTMENT Our buyers are now in the markets, and before the close of this month the first Fall novelties will put iu an appearance. In the mean time, we shall try our best to clear our counters of this season's goods. Mothers, there never was a better time, to do your purchasing than dur ing this week.

Our white and fancy linen Dress Vests are also included in this sale. MEN'S FLANNEL AND SILK SHIRTS The popularity of our Flannel Shirts is simply immense, and we be lieve we have sold more'of them this summer than any three firms in this city combined. During this week, however, we propose to bre'ak all records and sell more Flannel Shirts than during any previous week. How will we do it? Simply by naming prices so low as will tempt the closest buyers to purchase one or more of these comfort giving shirts. All our fine French Flannel and $ilk striped goods are included.
