and HONOR FOR CHICAGOAlf. Robert 8. McCersalck, EiTtjr t Aaa. trla-llaaary, Um4 . a Aaskaaaader. With the deration of the legation of Austriu-Uungary to an embassy Robert S. McCoruiick, the present minUter of the United State to Austria-Hungary, will be raised to the rank of ambassador, will assume privileges never before granted to an American minister to that coun try and will have his salary raised from $12,000 to $17,000 a year. Mr. McCormick is a Chicago man and before he was given his appoint ment aa minister at Vienna he lived lit that city many years. lie haa a large circle of friends In Chicago, nOHERT 8. M CORMICK. (Minister of the United States at Vienna, Austria.) nnil n number of wealthy and distin guished relatives. The staff of an nmbnssndor is much the same as tliut of a logution, but there ore more privileges and great er distinctions. An ambassador is called upon to do a great deal more entertaining than a minister, nnd is required to make a greater show of fiplcndor nnd magnificence. The rank is much higher und the recognition. is more courtly nnd oflicinl. The elevation of the Austria-Hun garian legation to the United States to an embassy is nn important diplo matic move on the part of Austria Hungary nnd ninrks an important epoch in the relations of the two countries. The fact that there has never been nn embassy is generally supposed to have been duo to a cool ness on the part of Austria-Hungary to the United States on account of a disturbance in this country in which a mob of Hungarians was roughly handled. The action of the Austria- Hungarian government in appointing its minister, Ladislaus Hengelmullcr von Hcngclvnr, to the rank of an ambassador, is taken in this country 03 on Indication that the government wishes nil former breaches to be healed nnd a spirit of cordiality es tablished. Mr. McCormick is very popular in Vienna, and it is rumored that he' 1ms hud more than a little to do with the recent action of the Aus tria-Hungarian government in elevat ing its legation to nn embassy. The initiative in the matter was taken bv Austria-Hungary's foreign minis ter. Count Goluchowski, nnd as it is the custom in diplomatic relations to nlwnvs respond to such nn eleva tion bv n similar one in this coun try, Mr. McCormick will be made am bassador as soon as Mr. llcngel- muller Is ofliclnlly recognized as such m this country.

And-he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto Him: Saul, Saul, why persecutes! thou me? 4. And he said: Who art thou. Lord? And the Lord said: I am Jesus whom thou persecutes!; It la hard for thee to kick against the pricks. 1 And he trembling and astonished, said: Lord, what wilt thou have me to dot And the Lord sold unto him: Arise, and go In te the city, and It shall be told thee what thou must do. 7. And the men ahlch Journeyed with him tood speechless, hearing a voice, but see ing no man. .

And the Lord said unto him: Arise, and co Into the street which is called Stralicht. and Inquire In the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus; for, behold, he prayeth, 12.

Vs. 8-8 Ananias Sent to Saul Vs. 10-18 Saul After Conversion VS. W-U Saul Before Conversion. We are not told very much concerning Saul prior to his conversion, hut the brief glimpses we are allowed give us a pret ty fuir clew to his character. These glimpses of Saul are from Acts 53-60, in Acts 8:1, Acts 8:3, and in the first two verses of tins lesson. The first two of these references show Saul in the band of those who stoned the disciple Stephen, and "Saul was con senting unto his death." In 8:3 we are told Saul . . . made havoc of the church." Acts 9:1 shows Saul "breath ing out threatcnings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord. e do not need to infer from these pas sages that Saul (Paul) was particu larly bloodthirsty. He was an enthu siastic, zealous partisan of the Jewish traditions, a "pharisee of the phari sees" (see Phil. 3:4, 5). The teachings of Jesus concerning Himself, and con cerning the kingdom of God, which He came to found, brought into strict con trast and opposition those leaders of thought who stood for the old tradi tions and for the precepts of the rab bis. lie Sees a Heavenly Light. Upon one of his missions of persecution Saul comes face to face with the fact that he has not been doing right. Before he thought he hud. But his whole con science had not yet been awakened. He hnd been groping in the darkness. A great light suddenly appears. It was a light, the like of which had never before appeared to him, a light "above the brightness of the sun." It was no earthly light, but a light fram Heaven. He Hears n Voice. Then he heard a voice; It was no earthly voice, but, like the light, from Heaven: "Saul, Soul, why persecutest thou me?" It Is a curious, but convincing, proof that the voice was from Heaven from the fact that Saul immediately per ceived that it was the voice of the Lord, but the speaker was such a Lord as Snul had not known, for he said: "Who art thou, Lord?" The voice came again: "I am Jesus, whom thou persecutest." Saul's next ques tion was the natural one for a strong man to ask. If this was indeed the Lord, the Master, it was for Snul to obey. So he ssks: "What wilt then have me to dor But it was not yet for Saul to learn. First he was to go to Damascus and have a session to readjust his ideas and his own life to his new experience. His Three Days' Blindness, During the next three days Saul had plenty of time and opportunity to think things over. The Lord he had thought he had been serving by persecuting' the disciples of Jesus, he had found to be Jesus Himself. Here was soul conflict, sure enough. He was three days without sight, but with the tem porary loss of sight came spiritual vision. Ananias Sent to Saul. Ananias waa a disciple. To him came a vision of Saul in his struggle toward the light. At the command of God he went to this aforetime persecutor that he (Saul) might again receive his sight. Saul After Conversion. After con version he was the sntun Snul as he was before, nnd yet not the snine ne had the same old strength of zeal and enthusiasm, hut now it wns ex pended in the right direction, and "straightway he preached Christ in the synogngiiPs, that He Is the Son of God."
