Losdox, Aug. 14. Dr.
preached to-day from Luke 24:46,
hoored Christ to Suffer."
There bare been scholars mo have ven
tured the assertion that the pains of oar
ixird -were unnecessary. Indeed, it -was a
shocking waste or tears and blood and
agony, unless some great end were to be
reached. If men can Drove that no good re
sult comes of It then the character of God is
impeached, and the universe must stand ab
horrent and denunciatory at the fact that
the Father allowed the butchery of His only
begotten Son.
We all idmlre the brave 600 men described
by Tennyson as dashing; into the conflict
n hen they knew they must die, and knew at
the same time that "someone had
blnnder'd;" but weare abhorrent or the man
who made the Dlunderand who caused the
sacrifice of those brave men for no use. But
I shall show you, ir the lord will help trie
this morning, that for good reasons Christ
went through the torture. In other words,
it behooved Christ to buffer."
The Debt or Man Most Be raid.
First In the first place I remark that
Christ's lacerations were necessary, because
man's rescue was an impossibility except by
the pa j ment of some great sacrifice. Out
rased law bad thundered against iniquity.
Man must die unless a substitute can inter
cept that death. Let Gabriel step forth. He
refuses. Let Michael, the Ai chancel, step
forth. He refuses. No Boman citizen, no
Athenian, no Corinthian, no reformer, no
anzel volunteered.
Christ then bn red His heart to the pang.
He paid tor our redemption in tears and
blood, and wounded met, and scourged
(houlders. anil torn brow. "It is done."
Heaven and earth hoard the snap of the
pribon bar. Sinai censed to quake with
wrath the moment that Calvary besan to
rock In crucifixion. Christ had suffered.
Oh!" -rnvt so-ne man, "I don't like that
doctrine of substitution: let every man bear
bis ow n burdens, and weep his own tears,
and flint hU own battles." Why, my
brother, there Is vicarious suflerinjr all over
the world. Did not vour parents suffer for
j out Do you not suffer sometimes ior your
children? Does not the patriot suffer for his
country? Did not Grace Darling suffer for
me arowning sailors: vicarious suffering
on all sides! Bat how insignificant com
pared with thi tcene of vicarious suffering.
Was it Tor crimes that I hd done
He groaned upon the tree?
Amazlnc pltr. grace unknown.
And lot e beyond drgree.
Christ must suffer to pay the price of our
redemption.
Bnt I remrrk again: The sufferings of
Christ were necessary in order that the
world's sympathies might be aroused. Men
Hre won to the right and good thiough their
sympathies.
Under the Spell of the Grant Sacrifice.
Men who have been obdurated by the
cruelties they have enacted, by the mas
sacres they have inflicted, bv the horrors of
which they have been guilty, have become
little children in the presence or this dying
Savior. What the sword could not do, what
Juggernauts could not subdue, the wounded
band of Christ lias accomplished. There are
this moment millions of people held under
the spell of that one sacrifice. The ham
mers that struck the spikes into the cross
have broken the rockv heart of the world.
Xothlng but the agonies of a Savior's death
throe conld arouse tho world's sympathies.
I remark again: "It behooved Clirist to sur
fer," that the strength and persistence of
the divine love might be demonstrated.
Was it the npplause of the world that in
duced Christ on that crusade from heaven?
Why, all the universe was at His feet. Could
the conquest of this insignificant planet
have paid him for his career or pain, it it had
been a mere matter of applause? All the
honors or heaven surging at His feet. Would
your Queen give np her throne that she
migb'' jule a miserable tribe in Africa?
e Lord Jesus Christ, on the throne.
01 uib -umerr-o, come auwn to our planet
if it were a mere matter of applause and ac
clamation? Xorwasitan expedition undertaken for
the accumulation of vast wealth. What
could all the harvests and the diamonds of
our little world do for Him whose are the
glories or infinitude and eternity? Nor was
it an experiment an attempt to show what
He could do with tho hard-hearted race.
He who wheels the stars in their courses
and bold the pillars of the universe on the
tips of His fingers needed to make no ex
periment to find what He could da
It Was Love That Brought Christ Down.
Oh! I will tell you, my friends, what it
was. It was undisguised, unlimited, all
conquering, all-consuming. Infinite, eternal,
omnipotent love that opened the gate that
started the star in the Easti with finger or
light pointing down to the manger: that ar
rayed the Christmas choir above Bethlehem;
that opened the stable door where Christ
was born.tbat lifted Him on the Cross. Love
thirsty at the well. Love at the sick man's
couch. Love at the cripple's conch. Love
sweating in the garden. Love dying on the
Cross. Love wrapped in the grave. Tou
cannot mistake it. The blandest eye must
see it. The hardest heart must feel it. The
deafest ear must hear it. Parable and mira
cle, wayside talk and seaside interview, all
1 he scenes of His lire, all the sufferings of
His death, proving beyond controversy that
lor our ingrate earth God has yearned with
stupendous and inextinguishable love.
But I remark again: "It behooved Christ to
suffer" that the nature orhumangulltmlght
be demonstrated. There is not a common
sense man in the house to-day that will not
admit that the machinery of society is out
of gear, that the human mind and the human
heart are disorganized, that something
ought to be done, and done right away for
its repair and readjustment. But the
height, and depth, and length, and breadth,
and hate, and recklessness, ana infernal
energy of the human heart forsin would not
have been demonstrated, if against the holy
and innocent One or the Cross it had not
been hurled in one bolt of fire.
Christ was not the first man that had been
put to death. There had been many be Tore
him put to death; but they had their whims,
their follies, their sins, their inconsisten
cies. The Loweit Depth of Depravltr.
But when the mob outside of Jerusalem
howled at the Son of God.lt was hate against
goodness. It was blasphemy against virtue,
it was earth against heaven. What was it in
that innocent and loving face of Christ that
excited the vituperation and the contumely,
nnd scorn of men? If he bad bantered them
to come on, if he had laughed them into de
rision, if be had denounced them as tho vag
abonds they were,we could understand their
lcrocity: Dut it as against inoffensiveness
that they brandished their spears, and
hook their flats, and ground their teeth,
and howled, and scoffed, and Jeered, and
juocked.
What evil had He done? Whose eyesight
had He put out? None: but He had given
vision to the blind? Whose child had he
blaln? None; but He restored the dead
damsel to her mother. What law had He
broken? None; but He had Inculcated obe
dience to government. What foul plot bad
Ho enacted against the happiness of the
race? None; lie had come to save a world.
The only cruelty He ever enacted was to
heal the sick. The only ostentation He ever
displayed was to sit with the publicans and
sinners, and wash the disciples' feet. The
only selfishness He ever exhibited was to
give His lite for His enemies. And yet, all
the wrath of the world surged against His
holy heart. Hear the red-hot scorn of the
oild hissing In tho pools of a Savior's
blood!
And standing there to-day, let us see what
an unreasonable, loathsome, hateful, blast
ing, damning thing is the iniquity of the
human heart. Unloosed, what will not sin
do? It will scale any height, it will tathom
the very depth of hell, it will revel in all
lasclvionsness. Thereisno blasphemy it will
not ntter, there are no cruelties on which it
will not gorge Itself.
VI hat tho Power of Sin Will Do.
It will wallow in filth, it will breathe the
air of charnel-houses of corruption, and call
thorn aroma; it will quaff the blood of im
mortal souls and call it nectar. When sin
murdered Christ on the Cross, it showed
what it would do with the Lord God Al
mighty ir it could get at Him.
Again: "It behooved Christ to suffer," that
our affections might be excited Cnristward.
Why, sirs, the behavior orur Lord has
stirred the affections of All tOiose who have
ever beard of It. It baa hung the art galler
ies of the world with such pictures as Ghir-
r sue Aiagi." snow me

Show me in history where one man has
given his property and bis life for anyone
else, and I will show you in history hun
dreds and thousands of men who have
cheerfully died that Christ might reign.
Aye, there are a hundred men In this house
Who, ir need were, would step out and die
for Jesus. Their faith may now seem to be
faint, and sometimes they may be incon
sistent; but let the fires of martyrdom be
kindled, throw them into the pit; cover them
with poisouons serpents, pound them, flail
them, crush them, and I will tell you what
their last ory would be: "Come, Lord Jesus,
come quickly!"
Oh, yesl the Lord Jesus has won the af
fections of many of us. There are some of
us who can say this morning, "Lord Jesus,
my llcnt and my song; my hope for time,
my expectation for eternity." Altogether
lovely Thou art. My soul Is ravished with
the vision. Tlioa ait .nine. Come, let me
clasp thee.
Tou Csnnot Give Op Jesus.
Come life, come death, come scorn and
pain, come whirlwind and darkness, Lord
Jesus, I cannot give Thee up. I have heard
Thy voice. I have seen Thy bleeding side.
Lord Jesus, if I had some garland plucked
from heavenly gardens, I would wreathe it
for Thy brow. If had some gem worthy of
the place, I would set it in Thy crown. If I
had seraphic harp, I would strike it in Thy
praise. But I come lost and ruined and un
done, to throw myself at Thy feet.
No price I bring:
blmplj- to Thr cross I cling.
But I remark again: "It behooved Christ
to suffer" that the world might learn how to
suffer. Sometimes people suffer because
they cannot help themselves; bnt Christ had
in bis bands all the weapons to punish his
enemies, andyet in quiescence he endured all
outrage. He might have hqrlcd the rocks
of Golgotha upon his pursuers; he might
have cleft the earth until it swallowed up
his assailants; he might have called in rein
forcement or taken any thunderbolt from
the armory of God Omnipotent, and hurled
it seething and flrey among his foes; but he
answered not again.
Oh my hearer! has there ever been in the
history of the world sneb an example of en
during patience as we find in the Cross.
Some of you suffer physical distresses: some
of you have life-long ailments, and they
make you fretful. Sometimes yon think
that God has given you a cup too deep and
too brimming. Sometimes you see the
world lauzhing and romping on the high
ways of life, and you look out of the window
while seated in invalid's chair.
The Unparalleled Sufferings or Christ.
I want to show you this morning one who
had worse pains in the bead than you have
ever had, who was wounded in the bands
and wounded in the leet, and suffered all
over; and I want that example to make you
more enduring in your suffering and to
make you say: "Father, not my will, but
Thine be done," Tou never bave had any
bodilv pain, and you will never have any
bodily pain that equaled Christ's torture.
Some of you are persecuted. There are
those who hate you. They criticise you.
They would be glad to see you stumble and
iau. xney nave done unaccountaDie mean
nesses toward you. Sometimes you teel
angry. Ton feel as if yon would like to re
tort. Mop: uook at tne closed lips, iook at
the still hand, look at the beautiful de
meanor of your Lord. Struck, not striking
back again. Oh! if you could only appre
ciate what he endured in the way of perse
cution, you would never complain of perse
cution. The words of Christ would be your
word: "Father, if it he possible, let this cup
paHS from me; but Knot, Thy will be done."
"It behooved Christ to suffer" persecution,
that he might show you how to endure per
secution. Some of yon are bereft. It is no random
remark, because there is hardly a family
here that has not passed under the shadow.
Tou have been bereft. Tour bouse is a dif
ferent place from what it used to be. The
same furniture, the same books, the same
pictures, but there has been a voice hushed
there. The face that used to light up the
whole dwelling has vanished. The patter
ing of the other feet does not break up the
loneliness. The wave has zone over vour
soul, and you bave sometimes thought what
you would tell him when he comes back: but
then the thought has flashed upon you, he
will never come back! Ah! mv brother, my
sister. Christ has sounded all that derjtb.
Jesus of the bereft soul Is here to-day. Be
hold Him! He knows what is to weep at the
tomb It seems tome as if all the storms of
the world's sorrow were compressed into
one sob, and that sob were uttered in two
words: "Jesus wept"
JOHN MORGAN BURIED
And Eis Daughter Not Expected to
. Becoyer From Her Wonsd.
THE FUNERAL A VERT LARGE ONE,
Afcout 2,000 People Following the Murdered
Father's Remains
TO THE CEMETERY IN GRESNE COUNT!
CSFECIAL TILKOBAM TO TH DISPATCH. 1
Cabmichaels, Pa., Aug. 14. The
funeral of John Morgan, who was murdered
by his son Thomas, occurred at 3 o'clock
this afternoon from his late residence in
Cumberland township, Greene county. It
was probably the largest funeral ever seen
in the county. There were nearly 400 car
riages and buggies, and estimates of tbe
attendance ranged from 1,500 io 2,000 per
sons. The Morgan farms lie near the Mononga
hela river.and the family being well known
on the Fayette side, delegations from Union
town, Masontown and other points in that
county were present. The hour of the
luneral was not fixed until yesterday after
noon, yet notwithstanding the community
is a rural one, with no railroads, the news
spread with remarkable rapidity to all seo
tions of both counties. The roads and ad
joining fields were to-day lined with ve
hicles and horses, and men, women and
children stood around in groups discussing
tbe awful tragedy.
No such sensation has ever been known
in this region. The murder of "William Mc
Causland, the Allegheny drover, occurred
five years ago, almost within Bight of the
Morgan homestead, but the impressions pro
duced by that killing, the motive of which
was robbery, are not to be compared
to those aroused by the unnatural
crime of young Thomas Morgan and his sis
ters. The funeral services were brief and with
out special incident. They were conducted
by Bev. T. J. Bristow, pastor of the New
Providence Presbyterian Church, and con
sisted of a prayer at the house, after which
the remains were viewed bv those who
could not go to tbe church. The procession
then moved to the church, about a mile
away, where the minister preached a short
sermon. It consisted of an exhortation on
the necessity of being ready to meet death,
and contained only a brief and very general
reference to the occasion or to tne aeceasea,
the speaker saying he could not go into the
details ef a family tragedy so distressing
and so well known to all present
The chief mourners wonld hare been the
four children, but tbe parricide son is in jail
and one daughter lies at the point of death
from the bullet which the murderer in
tended for their father. The other two
daughters followed the hearse not with
grief, as for a loved father, but rather with
sympathy for their brother and dying
sister.
Public opinion is divided, some empha
sizing the monstrous nature of the crime
for which these children must answer in
court, and others pleading the extreme
provocation which led to it.
A BAD MAN LAID LOW.
RUNNING DOWN CLEWS.
Evmpathy Turning to XJrxle TJorQen Even
Her Prosecutors Hint For an Insanity
portant Secret Evldencei
Fai.Ii Biveb. Mass., Aug. 14. City
Marshal Billiard has heard nothing from
Prof. "Wood, who is analysing the stomach
of the victims of the Borden tragedy, and
comparing the spot of bloodon the axe and
carpet. The police to-day have been en
gaged in chasing down clews and testing
statements in many letters sent to the Mar
shal. It is IiizzieBorden's side of the case
that is now attracting the whole attention
of the police.
It is not thought now that the preliminary
hearing set down for the 22d inst will be of
long duration. Attorney Jennings will do
everything in his power to have a full ex
amination at the earliest date.
Miss Borden is finding supporters and
friends in most unexpected places. The
talk is almost entirely regarding her
chances of proving her innocence. This
fact gives the police authorities reason to
think that much of the strongest evidence
will have to be given before Attorney Jen
kins will consent to an order for holding
his client until November.
It is an open secret in police circles that
the Government officers believe that Miss
Borden was insane at the time of the mur
ders, if she committed them. It is well
known in this city that Judge Blaisdell and
District Attorney Knowlton were pre
judiced in Miss Borden's iavor and they
must have had the strongest possible rea
sons for ordering her arrest. Some evi
dence relating to the private life of Miss
Borden, now in the bauds of the police,
bear directly on this side of the case and
strengthens the opinion of the high police
authorities, who have said that Miss Borden
was not conscious of her deeds, if she was
implicated.
Neck and Neck Across the Atlantic.
New Tobk, Aug. 14. The Cunarder
Aurania has scored another victory over
her rival, tbe Alaska, of tbe Guion Line, in
a race from Queenstown to this port. Both
vessels cleared tbe Cove of Cork within 65
minutes of each other on tbe afternoon of
August 7. During the entire trip across
the Atlantic the steamers were within sight
of each other. They arrived at Sandy Hook
together. Tbe Aurania's time was 6 days,
19 hours and 43 minutes, and her rival's, 6
days, 20 hours and 38 minutes.
While Terrorizing a Town He Tackles Two
Brothers and Bites the Dnst.
Confluence, Pa., Aug. 14. Special.
"Word comes from Friendsville, Md., along
the line of the Youghiogheny river that a
cowardly assault, which may yet prove a
murder, occurred there yesterday. A burly
lumberman, named Sturgeon, who is said to
have come from Kentucky, employed by
Knapp & Co., at Manor Lands, Md., ar
rived in Friendsville and at once proceeded
to fill up with bad whisky. For a time
many people were afraid to venture from
their homes.
I-. While in -bi condition he mt .two brpfhj
ers. "Will and John Brown, the father of
whom is tbe proprietor of a well-known
summer resort at Bear Creek, Md., both
peaceable young men. A few words were
exchanged, and without a word of warning
Sturgeon fired at "Will Brown from the re
volver with which he had terrorized the
neighborhood. The shot passed through
Brown's cheek and out near his ear, and
struck the other brother on the jaw. The
two Brown boys, with blood streaming from
their wounds, "wrestled with Sturgeon and
stripped him of his revolver, after which
they gave him such a severe thrashing that
it Is doubtful if he will recover. By the
time assistance arrived the two men present
ed a pitible sight, and the assailant lay un
conscious on tbe ground, with the two
wounded brothers standing over him. The
Browns were seriously hurt, and Sturgeon
is reported to be dying.
S0NTAG TRIES TO ESCAPE.
Preparations or tbe Train Bobber and a
Confederate Detected In Time.
YisaliA, Cax., Aug. 14. George Son
lag, who is confined in jail here on a charge
of being connected with the train robbery
near Fresnp, made a bold effort to escape
yesterday evening. Frank Williams,
awaiting trial for burglary, stepped into
Sontag's cell instead of his own. A large
hole had been cut in the top of the cell
sometime during the day, and it was un
doubtedly the intention of the men to enter
the corridor through the cell, and then dig
through the wall.
The jailor had his suspicion aroused, and
went to Sontag's cell in time to prevent his
escape. He enteaed the upper floor, opened
Sontag's door and the train robber was
taken out and fitted with an Oregon boot,
ball and chain. In his cell were found a
case kniie made into a saw and also a
pocket knife that had been used for cutting
rivets.

From Every Point of View
Kauf manns' Great Building
and Extension Sale is the
Greatest Thing of j:he Kind
Ever Undertaken by Any
Pittsburg Business Firm.
Yes, the greatest nothing less ! GREATEST, Jbecause it is the forerunner to the vastest
commercial enterprise (the largest retail concern) between Philadelphia and Chicago a
new era in the mercantile annals of Pittsburg and GREATEST, because this sale means
an absolute, unconditional and entire clearance of the goods yet on hand. The latter fact
means a loss to us of many thousands of dollars, but, as we are determined to open our
enlarged and reorganized establishment with an entirely new stock, we have no alterna
tive. Besides, we have the consolation of knowing that our loss is YOUR GAIN, and
your gain is (indirectly, of course) our gain. Below, we mention a few (only a few, mind
you) of the soft snaps awaiting you. Can you afford to ignore them ?
