The porter showed two rows of ivo ries in an affected grin. "Dat's purty Rood, sah," he said. An "octopuatic" looking man came in and looked at the porter with evidences of a smile twitching around the corners of his mouth. "Porter," he said. "Yes, sah." "Put me off at Buffalo." Then came a woman a brazen wo man who sprung the same old gag, followed by the two traveling men, who drew cuts at the farther cno of the car to see who would have the honor of in dulging in the witticism. And through it all the porter smiled. Finally he came oyer to my berth and sat down. "Dcy's some mighty humorous peo ple in dis world, sail," he said. "Very," I answered, as a tall man, faultlessly attired, came in with his head high in the air and passed us without a word. The porter looked surprised. "Say, boss," he said, following the tall man with his eyes, "do you s'pose it am possible dat boy never heard of dc 'put-mc-off' gag?" "It's possible," I answered, "but not probable." The porter lapsed into silence, and thought for a moment, and then hi.t lace brightened. , "Say, boss," he suddenly exclaimed, I've got it.

Dr. Tatmage Says (he Same Law of Right and Wrong Should Apply to Both Rich and Poor. THE FASCINATION OF FRAUD. ICopyricht iwt.1 Vahhinoton, l. 0. In this discourse Dr. Tahnage shows that there is a ten dency to excuse brilliant faults, because they arc brilliant, when the same law -of right and wrong ought to he applied to hiirh places and low; text, Daniel iv( 3.1, "The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar, and he was driven from men and did cat grass as oxen." Hera is the mightiest of the Kabylonish kings. Jx)ok at him. lie did more for the grandeur of the capital than did all his predecessors or suectssors. Hanging gar dens, reservoirs, aqueducts, palaces, all of his own planning. The bricks that are brought up to-day from the ruins of Baby lon nave liis name on them. "Nebuchad nezzar, son of Nabopolnssor, king of Baby ton." He was a great conqueror, lie stretched forth his spear toward a nation, and it surrendered. Hut he plundered the temple of the trua God. lie lifted an idol, Bel Merodach, and compelled the people to bow down before it, and if they refused they must go through the red hot furnace or be crunched by lum or lionesr. So God pulled him down. He was smitten with what physician call lycnnthropy, and fancied thnt he wag a wild benst, and lie went out and pas tured amid the cattle. God did not ex cuse him because he had committed the sin in high places or ntciuise the trans gression was wide rosounding. He meas ured Nebuchadnezzar in high place just as he would measure the humblest captive. But in our fine, you know us well as I, that there is a disposition to put a halo around iniquity ii ii is committed in con spicuous plai ts, end if it is wide resound ing and of large proportion. Kver and anon there has been an epidemic ot crime in high places, and there is not a IState or a city and hardly a village which lifts not been called to look upon astnundine forir- j cry, or an absconding bunk cashier or I president, or the wasting of trust fund or swinuiing mortgage, i propose, in carry ing out the suggestion of my text, as far as I can. to scatter the fascinations around iniquity and show you that sin is sin and wrong is wrong, whether in high place or low place, and that it will bo dealt with by that God who dealt v.'itli imnalaced Nebuchadnezzar. All who preach feel that two kinds of sermons are necessrrv the one on tho faith of the gospel, the other on the mo rality of the gospel and the one is just ns important an the other, for you know that in this land to day there are bundled of men hiding behind the communion tublca and in churches of ,li'.us Christ who have no business to be there as professors of re ligion. They expect to be all right with God, although they are all wrong with man. Anil, while I want you to under stand that by the deeds of the law no flesh living can be justified and a mere honest life cannot enter us into heaven, I want you as plainly to understand that unless the life is right the heart is not rightgrace in the heart and grace in the life. Ho we must preach sometimes the faith of the gospel and sometimes the mo rality of the gospel. It seems to mo there has not been n time in the last fifty years when this latter truth needed more thoroughly to be pre sented in the American churches. It needs to be presented to day. Look upon all the fascinations thrown around fraud in this country. Yon know for years men have been made heroes of and pictorialized and in Various ways pre sented to the public, as though sometimes they were worthy of admiration, if they have scattered the funds of banks or swallowed great estates that did not be long to them. Our young men have been dazed with thin quick accumulation. They have said: "That's the way to do it. What's the use of ploitding on with smail wages or insinnificain. salary when we may go into bumucsj life and with some stratagem achieve such a fortune as that I man has achieved?" A different measure I has been applied to the crime of Wall street froiiKthat which has been applied to the spoils which the man carries up I Hat alley. So a peddler came down from New Kris land many years auo. took hold of the money market of New York, flaunted his abominations iu the sight of all the pco- file and defied public morals every day of lis life. Ynunn men looked up and said: "He was a peddler in one decade, and in the next decade he is one of the nion areha of the stock market. That's the way to do it." To this day the evil influ ence of that profligate financier has been felt, and within the past few weeks he has had conspicuous imitators. There has been an irresistible impres sion going abroad among young men that the poorest way to get money is to earn it. The young man of flaunting cravat sa' s to the voting man of humble apparel: "What! Y'oti only get $1800 a year? Why, that wouldn't keep me in pin money. I spend SoOOO a vear." "Where do you eet it?" asks the plain young man. "Oh, stocks, enterprises, all that sort of thing, you know." The plain young man has hardly enough money to pay his board, has to wear clothes after they are out of fashion and deny himself all luxu ries. After awhile he gets tired of his plodding, and he goes to the man who has n' lneved midden I v large estate, and he says, ".lust show me how it is done." And he is shown. He soon learns how, al though he is almost all the time idle now and has resigned his position in the bank or the factory or the store he has more money tlmn he ever had. trades off his oid silver watch for a gold one with a flashing chain, sets his hat a little further over on the side of his head than he ever did. ri.iu.i- iiucr cigars and more ot ilieiu. He hns his hand in'. Now, if he can es cape the penitentiary for three or four years he will get into political circles, and he will get political jobs and will have souk thing to do with harbors and pave ments and docks. Now he has got so far aiong he is safe for perdition. Jt is quite a long road sometimes for a man to travel before he gets into the ro mance of crime. Those are caught w.io are only in the prosaic stage of it. If the sheriffs and constables would onlv leave them alone a little while thev would stcul as well as anybody. They might not be able to steal a whole railroad, but thev could master a load of pig iron. Now, I always thank God when I 6nd an estate like that go to smash. It is plague struck, and it blasts the nation. I thank God when it goes into such a wreck it can never be gathered up again. I want it to become so louthsoine and such an insuf ferable stench that honet young men win take warning. If God should nut into mnnrv or it representative the capacity to go to 'its lawful owner, there would not be a bank or a safety deposit in the United States whose walls would not be blown out, and mortgages would i ip and parchments would rend, and gold would shoot, and beggars would get on horseback, and slock gamb lers would go to the almshouse. How many dishonesties in the making out of invoices, und in the plastering of false labels, and iu the filching of custom ers of rival houses, and in the making and breaking of contracts. Young men are in doctrinated in the idea that the sooner they get money the better, and the net ting of it on a larger scale only proves to them their greater ingenuity. There is a glitter thrown around all these things. Young men have got to find out that God looks upon sin in a verv different lieht. And remember that the man who gets his gain by iniquity will soon lose it all. One moment after his departure from life he will not own an opera house, he will not own u certificate of stock, he will not .own one dollar of Government securities, and the poorest boy that stands on tho Jtrect with a penny in his pocket looking at the funeral procession of the dead cheat 'as it goes by will have more money thsu that man who one week previous boasted that he controlled the money market. bo '.here has been a great deal of fasci nation thrown arounil libertinism. So ciety is very severe upon the impurity that links around the alleys and low haunts of the town. The law pursues it, smites it, incarcerates it, tries to destroy it. You know as well ss I that society be comes lenient in proportion as impurity becomes affluent or is in tlevaled circles, and finally society is silent or disposed Jki pulliute. '. Albert is the jwicc, AhcJury. ihe calico offlcef that date atTaigti the wealthy liber tine? He walks the streets; be rides the parks; be flaunts his iniquity in the eyrs of the pure. (Sometime it seems to me as if society tvere coing back to the state of morals of Herculaneum, when it sculptured its vile ness on pillnrs snd temple wall and noth ing hut the lava of a burning mountain could hide the immensity of erime. At what time God will rise up and extirpate these evils upon society 1 know not nor whether He will do it by fire or hurricane or earthquake, but a holy God, I do not think, will stand it much longer. I be lieve the thunderbolts are hissing hot, and that when God comes to chastise the community for these sins, against which He has tittered Himself more bitterly than igainst any other, the fate of Hodom and Gomorrah will be tolerable as compared with the fate of our modern society, which knew better, but did worse. We want about 10,000 pulpits in Amer ica to thunder, "All adulterers and whore mongers ahnll hare their plsce in the hell that burnetii with fire and brimstone, which is the second death." It is hell on earth and hell forever. We have got to understand that iniquity on Columbia Heights or Fifth avenue or Beacon Hill is as damnable in the sight of God as it is in the slums. Whether it has canopied couch or eider down or dwells amid the putridity of a low tenement house, God is after it in His vengeance. Yet the pulpit of the Chris tian church has been so rowed down on this subject that it hardly dares speak, and men are almost apologetic when they rend the Ten ( 'ommandmentn. Then look at the fascinations thrown around assassination. There nre in all communities men who have taken the lives of others unlawfully, not as execu tioners of the law, and they go scot free. You say Hint they hnd their provocations. God gave life, and He alone hns a right to take it, and He may take it by visita tion of Providence or by an executioner of the law. who is His messenger. But when a man r.ssutnes that divine preroga tive he touches the lowest depth of crime. Society is alert for certain kinds of mur der. If a citizen going along the road at night is waylaid and slain by a robber, we all want the villain arrested and exe cuted. Kor all gnrroting, for all beating nut of life by a club or an axe or a slung shot, the law has quirk spring and heavy stroke, but you know that when men get affluent and high position and they avenge their wrongs by taking the lives of others great sympathy is excited. Lawyers plead, ladies weep, judge halts, jury is bribed, and the man goes free. If the verdict happen to he against him a new trial is called on throuirh some technicality, and they adjourn for witnesses that never come and adjourn and adjourn until the community has forgotten all about it, and then the orison door ouens and the mur derer goes free. Now, if cnpital punishment be right I say let the life of the polished murderer ?o with the life of the vulgar assassin, .et us have no partiality of gallows, no aristocracy of electrocution chair. Do not let us float back to barbarism, when every man was hi own judge, jury and executioner, and that man had tlie su premacy who had the sharpest knife and the strongest arm and the quickest step and the stealthiest revenge. He who wil fully and in hatred takes tho life of an other is a murderer, I care not what the provocation or the circumstances. He may be cleared by an enthusiastic courtroom, he may be sent by the Gov ernment of the United States as Minister to some foreign court or modern literature may polish the crime mwil it looks like heroism, but in the sight of God murder is murder, and tho judgment day will so reveal it. Now, do not be fascinated by the gla mor thrown over crime of whatever sort. Because others have habits that seem bril liant, but yet at the same time are wicked, do not choose such faults. Stand inde pendent of all such influences. Put your confidence in the Lord God. He will be your strength. "Vengeance is mine. I will repay, saith the Lord." Cultivate old fashioned honesty. This book is lull of it. Old fashioned bonesty such as was spoken of by Dr. Livingstone, the famous explorer. You may not know he was descended from the Ifighlunders. Dr. Liviiigsto ic said that une day one of the old Highlanders called his children around him and said: "Now, tny lads, 1 have looked nil through our family line. 1 have gone back as far as I ran, and I lind that all our ancestors were honest people. There doesn't seem to be one rogue among thein, and you have good blood. Now, my lads, be honest." There are hundreds of young men who have good blood. Shall I ask three or four plain questions? Are your habits lis good as when you left your father's house? Have you a good ticket iu your pocket? Have you a fraudulent document? Have you been experimenting to see how accur ate an imitation you could make of your employer's signature? Oh, you have good blood. Remember your father's pravers. .lenieiuber your mother's example. Turn not in an evil way. Have you been going astray? Come back. Have you ventured out too far? ' As I stand in pulpits looking over au diences sometimes my heart fails me. There are so many tragedies present, so many who have sacrificed their integrity, so many far away from God. Why, niy brother, there have been too many prayers offered for you to have you go overboard. And there are those venturing down into sin, and my bean aches to call them back. At Brighton Beach or Long Branch you have seeu men go down into the surf to bathe, and they waded out farther and iiu ther, and you got anxious about them. You said, "1 wonder if they can swim?" And you then stood and shouted: "Come back! Come back! You will be drowned!" they waved their hand back, saying: "No danger." They kept on wading deep er down and farther out from shore until after awhile a great wave with a strong undertow took them out, their corpses the next day washed ou the beach. So I see men wading down into sin farther und further, and f call to them: "Come back! Come back! You will be lost; you will be lout!" They wave their hand buck, say ing, "No danger; no danger!" Deeper down and deeper down until after awhile a wave sweeps them out and sweeps them ofl forever. Oh, com? back! The one farthest away may come. . "Oh," you sav, "you don't know where I came from. You don't know what mv history hns leen. You don't know what iniquity 1 have plotted. I have- gone through the whole catalogue of sin." My brother, 1 do not know the story, but I tell yon this: The door of mercy is wide open. "1 hough your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be ua wool." 1 hough vou have been polluted with the worst oi crimes, tnough you have been smitten with the worst of leprosies, though you have been fired with all evil passions. mis moment on your brow, hot with ini quitous indulgences, may be set the flash ing coronet of a Saviour a forgiveness.

Co.Js weekly review of trade says: General business continues its even course with all the leading industries well employed and with confidence ex pressed on every hand. Bountiful crops of wheat seem assured and the damage to corn, while considerable in some di rections, does not promise to be suf ficiently general or serious to at all im pede the progress of the country. Labor troubles are in process 'of settlement and speculators have been responsible for most of the unrest which has been re flected in the markets. Textile) lines have settled in a steady position that promises more lasting prosperity than if prices had been forced higher or sensational activity had fol lowed the altered attitude of buyers. Grain crops this season are occasion ing much uneasiness among speculator's owing to the extremely complicated sit uation. Owing to latest official and un official prognostications there is reason to anticipate the heaviest wheat yield ever harvested, and making the custom ary allowances for domestic consump tion, even with the small supplies on hand when the year opened, there ap pears available for export about 50 per cent, more than went abroad in the year of greatest shipments. Yet prices arc far above the low record and vigorous rallies follow each decline. Extensive needs abroad continue, the movement from Atlantic ports for the week amounting to 3,208,634 bushels, against 3.108,443 a year ago, and Western te ccipts were 4,579,378 bushels, asainit 7, 618,677 last year. Corn exhibited re markable strength, drought and heat since July I giving reason to expect lcs than the official report, which indicated more than two billion bushels. This cereal is now at an exceptionally high point and estimates of 200,000,000 bush els for export are too high, as foreign ers will not buy freely at the enhanced value.
