Lesson For August 20 Is
"The Riot of Ephesus"
(By William T. Ellis.)
I stood amid the marble fragments
of the old theater at Ephesus. All
about me were ruins, and memories.
In front of me extended the over
grown marble highway, littered with
overturned statues and columns, which
ran through the forum to the famous
marble docks of Ephesus. Not for
centuries, however, has the soa lap
ped those walls, though the outlines
of the ancient harbor, which once
connected the city with the Mediter
ranean, show clear and strong, like
a huge green frying-pan. Over yond
er Is the stadium, now covered with
a growing tobacco crop. The ruins
of once stately buildings are now but
gaping caverns, on which an "enter
prising" rug manufacturer has painted
hideous advertisements directed to the
occasional tourist. Along the marble
walks where once trod sages and sen
ators and saints, I see furtive serpents
glide.
The famous theater itself the
very one in which the Ephesian mob
shouted itself hoarse two thousand
years ago, thirsty for the blood of
the Apostle Paul still bears its
original shape, and traces of its
former marble grandeur. What thou
sands upon thousands could crowd
into this vast amphitheater! Now it
is deserted. In whatever direction I
look, I see not a single human being,
and not a vestige of living habitation.
AU is ruin, ruin, ruin.
As I tarry in the theater, the scene
of one of the most dramatic and sug
gestive events in the New Testament,
my Imagination peoples the city as it
was in Paul's day. I hear again the
throaty, frenzied mob proving by
noise! the supremacy and immor
tality of their many-breasted goddess.
A strange fancy siezes me, and amid
those barren stones I lift up my voice
and cry in mockery, "Great is Diana
of the Ephesians!" The only answer
is from a crow circling overhead, who
seems to wink at me.
Diana is dead. In the neighbor
ing village, whose natives sometimes
gather relics from the ruins of
Ephesus, I could not find any token
of the worship of Diana, though there
were old Ephesiaii coins bearing
Christian emblems. Even the site of
Diana's temple was long in dispute,
and it is now nothing to see. The
best preserved survival of old Ephesus
is the "Double Church" of St. John
the Divine. The centuries have vin
dicated the haunted and mobbed
Apostle Paul. Demetrius, who had
caused such a loud demonstration of
the verdict of "vox populi" in favor
of Diana, has been put to shame.
In all the earth to-day there is not
a living creature who names the name
of Diana with reverence, while Paul's
Gospel still sweeps on to new con
quests. In my own case, my visit
to the ruins of Ephesus visualized for
me the defeat of error and the tri
umph of truth. That ancient day In
old Ephesus had seemed to belong to
Diana; but it takes time to tell where
spiritual victories lie. Where are all
the gods that combatted Christianity
lin the first centuries?
To-day in An Ancient Yesterday
I The story of that turbulent day in
tho Ephesus of long ago is both his
tory and literature. So this Sundav
school lesson rehearses a familiar
scene. The Apostle Paul's two years
of work in Ephesus had borne such
fruit that the very vogue of Diana
was threatened. The image-makers
felt that their business was in peril.
The town's vested interests were en
dangered; for spiritual truth has a
serious habit of working out into
practical affairs. Led by Demetrius,
the silversmiths stirred up a city
wide riot against the Christian prop
aganda, professing great zeal for the
old order, though really caring only
for their own sockets. "Conserva-

tism" has always been a convenient
cloak for selfishness.
The case is paralleled to-day. Pres
ent conditions are mirrored in the
Ephesus tumult. There is no deny
ing the sinister fact that vested in
terests still follow the favorite ruse
of cloaking themselves beneath ap
parent zeal for patriotism or religion
or social stability. The one foe that
democracy has had to front at all
stages of its progress is the estab
lished order whose profits were af
fected by progress. Even back of the
world war we may trace the hideous
hand of "big business." The arro
gance of wealth and of class and of
leagued self-interest is the most im
mediate peril that confronts a self
governing people.
Demetrius is busy to-day in Wash
ington and Ottawa and Mexico City
and in all the other capitols of the
world. Usually his devotion to his
Diana is only an insincere cloak;
sometimes he himself does not know
the difference between his solicitude
for his faith and his concern for his
own bank account. Usually, the rab
ble he raises to support his case are
sincere worshipers of Diana of the
Ephesians.
The Madness of the Mob
The worst about the Demetriuses,
of Ephesus and elsewhere, is that
their only argument is the big stick.
They try to answer truth with force.
They mob —or discharge—the teach
er or preacher whose views they
deem a menace to their property
holdings. When progressive legisla
tion impends, they hire a lobby, and
seek to bribe or intimidate the legis
lators. They attempt to meet truth
with power, which is both stupid and
futile, as well as wronx. Christ cruci
fied but triumphant should have set
tled that point forever; but still small
boys and big corporations are meeting
unanswerable argument with a leer
ing, "I can lick you, anyway."
That mob at Epnesus, which De
metrius and other shrewd leaders di
rected, was so carried away by the
mass spirit that it behaved idiotically.
The men milled about like panicky
cattle. They shouted without know
ing why. Any foul deed was entirely
within their possibility. They have
become in history a foul blot on the
name of a beautiful city. In its mad
ness, a mob little realizes that it is
inflicting an indelible stain upon its
community. All the good people of
Georgia and Coatesville cannot wipe
out the hideous scars left by the lynch
ings.
The Canny Town Clerk
Truth is not decided in town meet
ing nor by majority vote. One man
has often been right, and all the
others wrong. In Ephesus that day
there was one man who kept his head.
It was the town clerk, a canny, so
phisticated man, who clearly saw
through the plans of Demetrius and
his fellow conspirators. By his little
speeoh, the burden of which was "Be
quiet, and do nothing rashly," he
made the mob see their folly. He
cited the pre-emioence of the courts,
and the groundlessness of the uproar.
Happy the nation, the city, the
neighborhood, which has one strong
man whom the mob-madness cannot
affect and who clearly sees the real
duty of the hour. Such a man, who
will not be stampeded or panic
stricken or frightened or consoled, is
of more worth than a police force or
a standing army. One man's power
shines as brightly from that Ephesus
scene as a crowd's futility. It is pos
sible for each of us to be, in local
disturbances, as the town-clerk of
Ephesus. Often this is the function
of a wife and mother. Always it be
longs to the teacher. One boy in
every crowd should fill the office. For
these who speak for truth and free
dom and justice are servants of God
in the eternal struggle of truth with
error.
"BABY IS CITTING TEETH"
Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 17.—"Please
release my husband. He is needed at
home, as our baby is cutting teeth "
Governor Frank B. Willis received
this appeal from a woman living at
Creston, Ohio. Homer M. Edwards,
executive clerk, wrote back to her as
follows:
"You do not state whether your
Imsband is in the army, navy, peni
tentiary, reformatory or workhouse.
All you say is that your baby is cut

SON OF KING IS

Prince Unfit For Government
Job; Had to Do Some
thing to Live
Vienna, Aug. 17.—A passenger on
a train from Vienna to Budapest was
amazed to recognize in a dining car
waiter one of the Christich brothers,
illegitimate sons of King Milan, who
reigned over Serbia from to
1889.
King Milan abdicated the throne in
1889 in favor of his only legitimate
son, Alexander—who was assassinated
with his Queen (Draga) in 1903. Dy
ing in 1901, Milan entrusted one of the
Christich boys, whose mother was
the beautiful Artemesia, to his life
long friend, Count Eugen Zichy of
Budapest. For years the Count treat
ed him much as a »on, supplied him
plentifully with all material things;
then died without remembering him
in his will or making any provision
for him. Falling suddenly from com
parative affluence to poverty, the
man dropped out of sight.
His present discoverer knew the
Christich brothers, drew from the
waiter a reluctant admission of his
identity with the explanation that he

Rejections Continue to
Decimate Ranks of Militia
State Recruit Rendezvous, Mt.
Gretna, Pa.. Aug. 17. The First
Battalion of the Thirteenth Infantry
consisting of four companies, went
through the United States medical in
spection for muster yesterday with a
total of 103 rejections. Company A
lost 17 men, Company B, 17; Company
C, 33; and Company D, 36. A United
States Army officer, in speaking last
night of the large percentage of rejec
tions, declared the medical officers
have nothing else to do but adhere to
the line laid down by the army regu
lations.
As an illustration of the need for
the greatest carc on the part of the
medical inspectors, he cited figures
showing that the United States army
from 1778 to 1898 had a pension roll
of $25,000,000, while that resulting
from the Spanish-American war alone
is $225,000,000. There is to be no re
currence of the trouble resulting from
the haste in 1898 in the present. situ
ation if the United States armv au
thorities can prevent it, he added. The
Second Battalion is to be Inspected top,
muster late this afternoon.
Under the provisions of the DiclG
bill, Pennsylvania is entitled to thir
teen dentists, one to each 1,000 men.
and this phase of the recruiting service
is under way here. Four dentists have
already been mustered in. They are
Langhorne Wister Fink and Edwin St.
Clair Wren, of Reading; Byron Stanley
Behney, of Harrisburg, and W. W.
Hinchman, Altoona. They will be
given the rank of first lieutenant.
The Ninth Infantry, which is to be
equipped here as a field artillery regU
ment, is scheduled to arrive here to
day.
