DR. TALMAGE CHOOSES THE MAGIC
WORD "COME" FOR A TEXT.
It U Found Six Hundred and Seyenty-
Klffht Time In the Bible It I Ono of
' the Moit Wonderful Word In the Ln-
pice-
DBOOKLTN,
Jan. 18. Dr.
Talmofte
preached the following sermon this morn
ing to an overflowing congregation in the
Academy of Music, this city. At nlgut,
when The Christian Herald service was
held in the New York Academy of Music,
fully six thousand persons were massed in
the largo building. A marked solemnity
pervaded tho assembly, and at its close
many persons in various parts of the honso"
roso at tho invitation of the preacher to
ask for prayers for their salvation. Dr.
Talmaee chose tho following texts for his
ennont "Como" (Gen. vi. 18): "Come"
(Rev. xxii, 17).
Imperial, tender and all persuasive is
this word "Come." Six hundred and seventy-eight
timed is it found in the Script
ures. It stands at tho front gnto of the
Bible as in my first txt, inviting autedi
lnvians Into Noah's ark, nnd It stands at
the other gate of the Bible as In my second
text, Inviting tho postdiluvians into tho
ark of a Saviour's mercy. "Como" is only
a word of four letters, bnt it is tho queen
of words, and nearly the entire nation of
English vocabulary bows to its scepter. It
is an ocean into which empty ten thousand
rivers of meaning. Other words drive, but
this beckons.
AiJ moods of feeling hath that word
"Come." Sometimes it weeps and some
times it laughs. Sometimes it prays, some
times it tempts and sometimes it destroys.
It sounds from tho door of church and
from the seraglios of sin, from the gates of
heaven and tho gates of hell. It is con
fluent and accrescent of all power. It is tho
heiress of most of tho past and the almoner
of most of the future. "Comet" You m.iy
pronounce it so that all the heavens will
be heard in its cadences, or pronounce it so
that all the woes of time nnd eternity shall
reverberate in its one syllable. It is on the
lip of saint and profligate. It is the might
iest of all sollcitants either for good or
bad.
A WORD OF WORDS.
Today I weigh anchor and haul In the
planks, and set sail on that great word, al
though I am sure I will not bo able to reach
the further shore. I will let down the
fathoming line into this sea and try to
measure its depths, and though I tie to
gctherall the cables and cordage I have on
board, I will not be nble to touch bottom.
AlIHho power of the Christian religion is
in that word "Come." The dictatorial
and commandatory In religion is of no
avail. The imperative mood is not the up
propriate mood when we would have peo
pie savingly impressed. They may bo
coaxed, but they cinnot be driven.
Our hearts -are like our homes; at a
friendly knock the door will bo opened,
but an attempt to force open our door
would land the assailant in prison. Our
theological seminaries, which keep young
men three years in their curriculum before
launching them into the ministry, will do
well If in so short a time they can teach
the candidates for the holy ofllce how to
say with right emphasis aud intonation
and power that one Word "Cornel" That
man who has such efficiency In Christian
work, and that woman who has such
power to persuade people to quit tho
wrong and begin tho right, Went through
artrles of losses, bereavements, persecu
tions and tho trials of twenty or thirty
years before they could make it a triumph
of grace every timo they uttered the word
"Come."
"COMES" SOMETIMES WAR.
You must remember that in many cases
our "Come" has a mightier "Como" to
conquer before it has any effect at all.
Just give me the accurate census, the sta
tistics, of how many are down in fraud, in
drunkenness, in gambling, in imparity, or
in vice of any sort, and I will give you the
accurate census or statistics of how many
have been slain by tho word "Come."
Come and click wino glasses with me tat
this Ivory bar." "Como and see what wo
can win at this gaming table." "Come,
enter with me this doubtful speculation."
Come with me and read those infldel
tracts on Christianity." "Como with me
to a place of bad amusement." "Come
with me In a gay bout through under
Stoand New York." If in this city there
w twenty thousand who are down in
noral character, then tweuty thousand
m under the power of tho word "Come."

Thank God, I am not thus limited, and that
I can promise room for all in this gospel
boat. Get in; get inl And yet there is
room. Room in tho heart of a pardoning
God. Room in heaven.
THERE IS NO ESCAPE FROM LIFE'S STRUGGLE.
I also apply the word of my text to thoio
who would liko practical comfort. If any
ever escape tho struggle of life, I have not
found them. They aro not certainly among
tho prosperous classes. lu most cases it
was a struggle all tho way up till they
reached tho prosperity, and since they have
reached these heights there have beou per
plexities, anxieties and crises which were
almost enough to shatter tho uerves and
turn the brain. It would bo hard to tell
which have the biggest fight in tho world
tho prosperities or the adversities, the con
splcultles or tho obscurities. Just as soon
as you have enough success to at
tract the attention of others tho euvies
aud jealousies are lot loose from their
kennel. Tho greatest crimo thnt you can
commit In tho estimation of others is to
get on better than they do. They think
your nddition is their subtraction. Five
hundred porsons start for n certain goal of
success; one reaches It and the other four
hundred and uiuety-uiuo aro mud. It
would take volumes to hold the story of
the wrongs, outrages and defamations that
have come upon you as a result of your
success. Tho warm sun of prosperity
brings into Hfo a swamp full of annoying
Insects.
On tho other hand tho unfortunate
classes have thoir struggles for mainte
nance. To achieve a livelihood by ono who
had nothing to start with, and after a
while for a family as well, and carry this
on until children are reared aud educated
and fairly started in the world, and to do
this nmid all the rivalries of business, and
the uncertainty of crop3, and tho fickleness
of tarilTlegislation, with an occasional labor
strike, nnd hero and there a financial panic
thrown in, is a mighty thin.u to do. nnd
thero are hundreds and thousands such
heroes nnd heroines who live unsuntr and
die unhouored. What weall need, whether
up or down in life or half way between, Is
the infinite solace of tho Christian religion.
And so we employ tho word "Cornel" It
will take all eternity to find out the num
ber of business men who hao been
strengthened by tho promises of God, and
the people who havo been fed by tho ravens
When other resources gave out, and tho
men and women who, goiugiuto this battle
armed only with needle, or saw, or ax, or
yardstick, or pen, or typo, or shjmjl, or
Bhoelast, have gained a victory thaWnado
the heavous resound With all the re
sources of God promised for overy exi
gonoy no one need be left in the lurch
A &UULIMK KAITU.
I like the faith displayed years ugo in
Drury lane, London, in a humble home
Where every particle of food had given out,
and a kindly soul entered with tea and
other table supplies, and fouud a kettle on
the lire ready for tho tea. Tho benevolent
lady said, "How Is it that you havo the
kettle re.uly for tho tea when you had no
tea in the house?" And tho daughter in
tho home said: "Mother would have me
put the kettle on tho Ire, nnd when I said
What is tho uso of doing so, when we
have nothing in tho house?' she said 'My
child, God will provide. Thirty years ho
has already provided for mo through all
my pain and helplessness, and ho will not
leave mo to starve at last. lie will sond us
help, though wo do not see how.' Wo havo
been waiting all tho day for something to
come, but until wo saw you wo knew not
how it was to como." Such things tho
world may call coincidences, but I call
them almighty deliverances, nnd, though
you do not hear of them, they are occur
ring every hour of every day and in all
parts of Christendom.
But tho word "Come" applied to those
Who need solace will amount to nothing
Unless it bo uttered by soino one who has
experienced that solace. That spreads the
responsibility of giving this gospel call
among a great many. Those who have
lost property aud been consoled by rollglon
In that trial are the ones to invito those
who have failed in business. Those who
have lost their health and been consoled
by religion aro the ones to invite those who
aro in poor health. Those who havo had
bereavements and been consoled In thoso
bereavements aro tho ones to sympathize
with thoso who have lost father or mother
or companion or child or friend What
multitudes of us are alive today, and in
good health, and buoyant in this Hfo, who
would havo been broken down or dead
long ago but for tho sustaining and cheer
ing help of our holy religion) So we say
"Cornel" The well Is not dry. The buck
ets are not empty. The supply Is not ex
haustod. There is just as much mercy and
condolence and soothing power iu God as
before tho first grave was dug, or tho first
tear started, or tho first heart broken, or
the first accident happened, or tho first
fdrtune vanished. Those of us who have
felt tho consolatory power of religion havo
a right to speak out of our own experi
ences, nnd say "Come!"
TIIK WORLD'S DISMAL CONDOLEXCES.
What dismal woik of condolence the
world makes when it attempts to condolel
The plaster they spread does not stick.
The broken bones under their bandage do
not knit. A farmer was lost iu tho snow
storm on n prairie of the far west. Night
coming on, nnd after he was almost frantic
houso or walk In the parks? Has God
built thl3 house of Gospel mercy, and will
ho then refuse entrance to his children?
Will a government at great oxpcnpo build
Hfo saving stations hll along the coast, and
boats that cin hover unhurt llko a petrel
over the wildest surge, and then when tho
lifeboat has reached tho wreck of a ship
In tho offing not allow tho drowning to
Beize tho lifeline or tnko tho boat for tho
shore In safoty? Shall God provide at the
cost of his only Son's assassination cscapo
for a sinking world, aud then turn a deaf
ear to the cry that comes up from the
breakers?
YOU NEED BUT DELIKV3 TWO THINGS.
"But," you say, "thero nnso many things
I havo to believe, aud so many things in the
shape of a creed that I have to adopt, that
I am kept back." No, nol You need be
lieve but two things namely, that Jesus
Christ came into the woild to save sinners,
and that you are ono of them. "But," you
sny, "I do believe both of thoso things!"
Do you really believo them with all your
heart? "Yes." Why, then, you have
passed from death Into life. Why, then,
you are a son or a daughter of the Lord
Almighty. Why, then, you aro an heir or
nn heiress of an inheritance that will do
clare dividends from now until long after
tho stars are dead. Hallelujah! Prince of
God, why do you uot comu and take your
coronet? Princess of tho Lord Almighty,
why do you not mount your thionu? Pass
up Into the light. Your boat is anchored,
whydoyounotgooahore? Just plant your
feet hard down, and you ill feel under
them the Itoek of Ages
I challengo the universe for one Instance
in which a man in the right spirit appealed
for tho salvation of the gospel and did not
get it. Man alive! aro you going to let
all the years of your life go away with you
"without our having this great peaco, this
glorious hope, this bright expectancy? Aro
you going to let tho pearl of groat price lio
in the dust at your feet becauso you aro
too indolent or too proud to stoop down
and pick It up? Will yon wear tho chain
of evil habit when near by you is tho ham
mer that could with one stroke simp the
shackle? Will you stay in the prison of
sin when here is a gospel key that could
unlock your incarceration? No, no! As
tho ono word "Come" has sometimes
brought many souls to Christ, I will try
tho experiment of piling up into a mount
ain mid then sending down in an avalanche
of power many of these gospel "Comes."
"Come thou and till thy house iuto the
ark;" "Come unto me all jo who labor mid
aro heavy laden and I will give you rest;"
"Como, for all things nru now ready;"
"Tho Spirit and the Bride say 'Come,' and
let him that heateth s.ij 'Come,' and let
him that is nthir.-tt coiue."
Tho stroke of ono bell in a tower may be
sweet, but n score of bells well tunid, and
rightly lifted, and skillfully swung in one
great chiniu 111) the houvons with inusio
almost celwtial. And no one who has
heard the mighty chimas ji) tho toweis of
Amsteulam or Ghent or Copauluigen cm
forget them. Now, it seems to mu that in
this Sibbath hour all heaven is chiming,
nnd tho voices of departed friends and
kindred ring down tho sky saying "Cornel"
The angels who uever fell, bending from
sapphiro thrones, are chanting "Comet"
Yea, all the towers of heaven, tower of
martyrs, tower of prophets, towor of Apos
tles, tower of ovungulNts, tower of the
temple of the Lord God aud tho Lamb are
chiming, "Come! Cornel" Pardou for all,
and peace for all, and heaven for all who
will come.
THE WAR WAS OVER.
When Russia was in one of her great
wars tho buffering of tho soldiers had been
long and bitter, and they were waiting for
the end of tho strife.
Ono day a messenger in great excitement
ran among the tents of tho army shouting
"Peace! Peaco!" The sentinel on guard
asked, "Who says peace?" And tho sick
soldier turned on his hospital mattress
and asked, "Who says peaco?" and all up
and down tho encampment qf tho Rus
sians went tho question, "Who says
peace?" Then the messenger responded,
"Tho czar sajs, peace." That was
enough. That meant going homo. That
meant tho war was over. No more wounds
aud no more long marches. So today, as
ono of the Lord's messengers, I move
through theso great encampments of souls
nnd cry: "Peaco between earth and heaven!
Peaco between God mid maul Peace be
tween jour repenting soul and a pardon
ing Lord!" If you ask me, "Who says
peace?" I answer, "Christ our king de
clares it.', "My peaco I give unto you!"
"Peaco of God that passethnll understand
ing!" Everlasting peace!

"He had scarcely registered at tho Fifth

'Colonel,' although ho ne er saw mllitory
service and is guiltless of any mllitjiry
title, introduced himself as tho son of tho
well known Cleveland millionaire. Dan P.

irom n European trip, and was glad to
meet some one from tho west. It mndo
him think of homo onco more. Besides,
thero was another weighty reason for his
pleasure in meeting a man from tho west.
"He had brought home with him a largo

the custom houso charges had Increased
enormously. Ho was thunderstruck when
tho customs officers named tho amount of

Tho startling discovery has been mado
that Cuba is cracking not feiinply crock
ing, but bursting widu oicn. Numerous
fissures in tho earth havo appeared In
piany widely situated localities, but par
ticularly near Matanzas. Ono of theso
enormous cracks in nearly eleven English
pillcs in .length, and has actually broken a
mountain chain nsuudor, leaving a wldo
gap, which, but for tho fact that the Assure
seems without bottom, would mako a
splendid roadway, making tho rich planta
tions in the valley beyond at least fifty
miles ueaier Lathios, tho nearest port,
which is now reached by rounding the
spur of tho mountain. Soino of tho cracks
find openings within sighf-of ths placo aro
000 to 1,000 feet long, 1M to 50 feet wide and
of unknown depth.
Theso disturbances may bo nnd no doubt
aro n continuation of thoso felt uot long

but tho people aro not inclined to view it
in that light, regarding all such mani

pf them actually lielievlng that boiuo Im
