Dr.Talmaga tha orctt arcta of the Blbla rlLl ofar.,.,,oc. It la Wednes day morning In naradlse. The tbslr opening place nor the flsh take their first swim until the following Friday. The solar and lunar lights did not break through the thick, cha otic fog ot the world's manufacture until Thursday. Before that there waa light, but lt -was electric light or phosphorescent light, not the light of sun or moon. But the botanical and pomological productions came on Wednesday, first the flowers and then the fruits. Tbe veil of fog is lifted, and there stand the orchards. Watch tha sudden maturity ot the fruit. In our time pear trees must have two years, before they bear fruit and peach trees ' three years, and apple trees five years, but here Instantly a complete orchard springs Into life, all the branchoa bear ing fruit. The lnsectlle forces, which have been doing their worst to destroy the fruits for 6,000 years, had not yet begun their invasion. Tbe curculio had not yet stung the plum, nor the caterpillar hurt the apple, nor had the phylloxera plague, which has devas tated the vineyards of America and France, assailed the grapes, nor the borer perforated the wood, nor the aphides ruined the cherry, nor the grub punctured the nectarine, nor the blight struck the pear. There stood the first orchard with a perfection of rind, and an esqulslteness of color, and a lusclousness of taste, and an affluence of production which it may take thousands of years more of study of the science ot fruits to reproduce. Why waa the orchard created two days before the flsh and birds and three days before the cattle? Among other things, to Impress the world with a lesson It Is too stupid to learn that fruit diet is healthier than meat diet, and that the former must precede the latter. The reason there are In the world so many of the lmbruted and sensual is that they have not im proved by the mighty, unnoticed fact that the orchards of paradise preceded the herds, and aviaries and flsh ponds. Oh, those fruit bearing trees on the banks of the Euphrates, and the Gihon and the Hlddekel! I wonder not that the ancient Romans, Ignorant of our Qod, adored Pomona,, the goddess of fruits, and that all the sylvan deities were said to worship her, and that groves were set apart as her temples. You have thanked God for bread a thousand times. Have you thanked him for the fruits which he made the first course of food In the menu of the world's table the acids of those fruits to keep the world's table from being insipid, and their sweets to keep lt from being too sour? At this autumnal season how the orchards breathe and glow, the leaves removed that the crimson or pink or saffron or the yellow or brown may the better appear, while the aromatlcs fill the air with Invitation and remi niscence. As you pass through the orchard on these autumnal days and look up through the arms of the trees laden with fruit you hear thumping on the ground that which is fully ripe, and throwing your arms around the trunk you give a shake that sends down a shower of gold and fire on all sides of you. Pile up In baskets and barrels and bins and on shelves and tables the divine supply. But these orchards have been under the assault of at least 60 centuries tbe storm, the droughts, the winters, the insectlvora. What must the first orchard have been? And yet lt is the explorer's ev idence that on the site of that orchard there is not an apricot, or an apple, or an olive nothing but desert and deso lation. There is not enough to forage the explorer's horse, much less to feed his own hunger. In other words, that first orchard Is a lost orchard. How did tbe proprietor and the proprietress of all that intercolumnlatlon of fruit age let the rich splendor slip their pos session? It was, as now, most of the orchards are lost namely by wanting more. Access they had to all the fig trees, apricots, walnuts, almonds, ap ples bushels on bushels and were forbidden the use of only one tree In the orchard. Not satisfied with all but one, they reached for that and lost the whole orchard, do right down through the business marts of the great cities and find among the weighers and clerks and subordinates men who once commanded the commercial world. They had a whole orchard of successes, but they wanted just one more thing, one more house, or one more country seat, or one more store, or one more railroad, or one more million. They clutched for that and lost all thoy had gained. For one more tree they lost a whole orchard. There are business men all around us worried nearly to death. The doctor tells them they ought to stop. Insomnia or indigestion or aching at the base of the brain or ungovernable nerves tell them they ought to stop. They really have enough for themselves and their fami lies. Talk with them about their overwork and urge more prudence and longer rest and they say: "Tea, you are right. After I have accomplished one more thing that I have on my mind I will hand over my business to my sons and go to Europe and quit the kind of exhausting life I have been living tor the past SO years." Some morning you open your paper, and, looking at the death column, you find he suddenly depamd this life. In try lag U via Jut one more tree he lost the whole orchard.

And Wellington re plied: "Let them fire away. The bat tle is won and my life Is of no value now." My friends, we ought never. to be reckless, but If, through tbe par dotting and rescuing grace of Christ,' you have gained the victory over sin St. John of the last orchard, to sit down under the tree of which the church in the book of Canticles speaks when it says: "As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great de light, and his fruit was sweet to my taste." And there lt may be found that to-day we learned the danger ot hankering after one thing more, and that religion Is a luxury, and that there is a divine antidote for all poi sons, and that, we had created In us an appetite for heaven, and that it was a wholesome and saving thing for us to have discoursed on the pomology ot tbe Bible or God among the orchards.

Nov. g. At lantic and Pacific passenger train No. 2 from the west was held up by four men near Orants station, 9o miles west of this city. After blowing open the ex press company's safe, the robbers wrecked the train, which ruught fire, the express, baggage and smoking cars being totally destroyed. It Is not yet known whether they were successful ln obtaining booty, but It In thought a large amount of money was carried by the train. The robbers had boarded the train at some point farther west, and when near Grants one of them boarded the engine and, covering the engineer with a gun. ordured hlsk to stop the train. The coaches were cut off and left at the stockyards. The rest of the train was then taken out a mile and a half from the station, whore the express safe was dismantled. After robbing the safe, the robbers re versed the engine and made thulr es cape. The engine and baggage car ran at a terrific rate until they struck the coaches, which were standing near the stockyarda. The cars were wrecked and caught fire, four of them being burned. Fortunately the passengers had all left the coaches before the collision, and none waa Injured. A late rumor is to the effect that the fireman. Henry Able, who wan com pelled by the robbers to run the engine when the coaches were loft, was killed by the explosion when the safe was blown open. Hl Hotel named tijr Firebug. ST.
