TALMAGE PREACHES ON BRICKS
WITHOUT STRAW.
Though the rimmoht of Old Key pi Hare
Been Demi fur Jinny Ccntnrlc. There
Are Mill .Many l'hmruoh Who Are !)
mnndlng Ilrlclcs Without Straw.
HltOOKDYX, Nov. 1. The Tabernacle
was thronged ns usual this morning.
Tlie vast odliice Oiled to Its utmost
capacity with eager listeners shows how
the popular preacher retains his power
over tho people Although he has been
preaching In Brooklyn for more than
twenty four years, his audiences wore
never so large as now, and although
tho largest Protestant church in Amer
lea has been built for him, there never
was a time when so many person were
turned away for lack of room The
subject of this morning's sermon was
"Bricks Without Straw," a continua
tion of tho scries on the confirmation of
Holy Scripture which Dr. Talmngo
found In his journey from the Pyramids
to the Acropolis. His text was Isaiah
xix, 1, "Tho burden of Egypt."
What Is all this excitement about in
tho streets of Cairo, Egypt, this Decem
ber morning in 18801 Stand back! We
hear loud voices and see tho crowds of
people, retreating to the sides of the
street. The excitement of others bo
comes our own excitement. Footmen
come in eight. They have a rod in tho
hand and tasseled cap on head, and
their arms and feet are bare. Their
garb is black to tho waist, except as
threaded with gold, and tho rest is
whito. They are clearing the way for
on official dignitary in a chariot or car
riage. They are swift and sometimes
run thirty or forty miles at a stretch in
front of an equipage. Make way I
They are the fleetest footed men on
earth, bat soon die. for tho human
frame was not made for such endur
ance.
I asked all around mo who the man
In tho carriage was, but no one seemed
to know. Yet as I fell back with the
rest to tho wall I said, This is tho old
custom found all up and down the
Bible, footmen running before tho ml
ers, demanding obeisance, as in Genesis
before Joseph's chariot tho people were
commanded, "Bow tho knee," and as
I see the swift feet of tho men, fol
lowed by ttio swift feet of the horses,
how those old words of Jeremiah rushed
through my mind, "If thou hast run
with tho footmen and thtiy have wearied
thee, how canst thou contend with
borsesP
Now, my hearers. In this course of
sermons I am only serving you as foot
man, and c'caring tho way for your
coming Into tho wonders of Egyptology,
a subject that I would havo yon study
far beyond anything that can bo said
in tho brevity of pulpit utterance. Two
hundred and eighty-nine times does the
Biblo refer to Egypt and the Egyp
tians. So wonder, for Egypt was the
mother of natlous. Egypt, tho mother
of Greece; Greece, tho mother of
Borne; Rome, tho mother of England;
England, the mother of our own bind.
According to mat, tsgypt ts our great-great-granduiother.
On other Sabbaths I left you study
ing what they must havo been in their
glory; tho Ilypostylo hall of Karnao,
tho architectural miracles at Luxor, tho
Colonuado of Horemhob, tho ceme
teries of Memphis, the valuo of a king
dom In one monument, tho Sphinx,
which with lips of stono speaks loud
enough to bo heard across tho centu
ries, llellopolls una Z.onn, tho conun
drum of arohieologists. But all that
extravaganeo of palaco and temple and
monument was tho cau.vo of an oppres
sion high as heaven and deep as hull.
Tho weight of those bliwks of stone.
heavier than nny modern machinery
could lift, camo down upon tho He
brew slaves, and their blood mixed tho
mortar for the trowels.
THK UOUOH TASKMAHTKltS.
We saw ngatu and again on and along
tho Kilo a bo&j workman roughly smite
a subordinate who did not plena him.
It Is no rare occurrence to sco long linos
of men under heavy burdens passing
by taskmasters at short distances, lash
ing thum as they go by into greater
speed, and thun tlieso workmen, ex
haunted with tho blasting heats of tho
day, lying down upon tho bare ground,
suddenly chilled with night air, crying
out in prayon "Ya, Allah I" "Yn,
Allah!" which means O God I O
Godl But what must havo been the
olden times cruelty thown by the
Egyptians toward their IsraelitUh ttlavivi
is indicated by a picture hi the Bail
Hassan tombs, where a man Is held
down on his faco by two men and an
other holds up the victim's feet while
tho officials beat tho bun back of the
victim, every stroke, I havo no doubt,
fetching tho bood.
Now you wo how tho Pharaohs could
afford to build such costly works. It
cost them nothing for wages, nothing
but the tears and blood of tho toilers,
and tears and blood are a cheap drink
lor devils. "Urlcks without straw"
may not fciiggest so much luirdshlii
until you know that tho DrloKs won un a mountain top, Meno, tuu one
usually made with "crushed straw," will receive from tho Almighty a law
straw crushed by tho feet of tho oxen ' that Is to bo the foundation of all good
in tho thnuhlng. and, this crushed law while tiio world lasts. -When ho la
straw denied to tho workmen, they had dead, God will come down on Neboiuid
to pick up hero und there a piece of alone bury iuii). no man or woman or
stubblo or gather rushes from the angel worthy to attend tho obsequies.

That governmental outrage has al
ways been a characteristic of Egyptian
ruton. Taxation to the point of star
ration was the Egyptian rule In the
Biblo times as well as it is in our own
time. A modem traveler gives the
figures concerning the cultivation of
toventeun acres, tho value of the yield
sf the field stated in piastres:
rttxloce Lfte
Exi-iL-s V&H
Clear produce WH
TaxiM 90
Amount cleared by the farmer. 31554
Or. as my authority declares, seventy
per cent, of what the Egyptian farmer
uiakes is paid for taxes to the govern
ment. Now, that Is not so much taxa
tion as assassination. What think you
of that, you who groan under heavy
taxes in AmericaT I have heard that
in Egypt the working people have a
song liko this, "They starve us they
starve us. they beat us, they beat us,
but there's some one above, there's
owe one above, who will pnnl-Ji them
well, who will punish them well." But
seventy per cent, of government tax Is
a mercy as compared to what the He
brew slaves suffered there In Bible
tin.es. They got nothing but food
hardly flt for a dog, and their clothing
was of ono rag, and their roof a burn
ing sky by day and the stars of heaven
by night
You say, "Why did they stand itT
Becaue they had to stand it. You
ieo. along back in the world's twilight,
Jiere was a famine in Canaan, and old
Jacob and his sons came to Egypt for
bread. The old man's boy, Joseph,
was prime minister, and Joseph I sup
pose tho father and the brothera called
Iiim Joe, for it does not make any dif
ference how much a boy Is advanced
In worldly success, his father and broth
era and sisters always call him by the
same name that he was called by when
two years old Joseph, by Pharaoh's
permission, gave to his family, who
had Just arrived, the richest part of
Egypt the Westchester farms or the
Lancaster farms of the ancients.
Jacob's descendants rapidly multi
plied. After awhilo Egypt took a turn
at famine, and those descendants of
Jacob, the Israelites, came to a great
storehouse which Joseph hod provided,
and paid in money for corn. But af
ter awhile the money gave out and
then they paid In cattle. After awhile
the cattle were all In possession of tho
government, and then the Hebrews
bought corn from the government by
surrendering themselves as slaves.
SLAVBItT UJ EGYPT.
Then began slavery in Egypt. Tho
government owned all tho Hebrews.
And let modem lunatics, who in Amer
lea propoto handing over telegraph
companies and railroads and other
tilings to be run by government seo
tho folly of letting government get Its
hand ou everything. I would rather
trust tho pcoplo than ,any government
tho United States ever had or will
have. Woe worth tho day when legis
lators and congresses and administra
tions get possession of anything uioro
than it is necessary for them to havo.
That would bo tho revival in this land
of that old Egyptian tyranny for which
God has never had anything but red
hot thunderbolts.
But through such unwise processes
Israel was cnslavod in Egypt, and the
long lino of agonies began all up and
down tho NIlo, Heavier and sharper
fell tho lash, hungrier and ghastlier
grow tho workmen, louder and longer
went up tho prayer, until three millions
of tho enslaved were crying: "Ya, Al
lah I Ya, Allah!" O Godl O Godl
Where was help to como from? Not
tho throne, Pharaoh sat upon that.
Not tho army, Pharaoh's officers com
manded that Not surrounding na
tions, Pharaoh's threat made them
tremble. Not tho gods Amnion and
Osiris or tho goddess Isls, for Pharaoh
built tlietr temples out of tho groans of
this diabolical servitude But ono hot
day the Princess Thonorls, tho daughter
of Pharaoh, whilo in her bathing house
on tho banks of tho Ntlo, has word
brought her that there Is a baby afloat
on tho river iu a cradle mado out of
big leaves.
Of course there Is excitement all up
and down tho banks, for an ordinary
baby In an ordinary cradle attract
smiling attention, but an Infant in a
cradle of apyrus rocking on a river
arouses not only admiration but curl
oslty. Who mado that boat! Who
mado It watertight with bitumen I Who
bunched It I Reckless of tho croco
diles who lay basking themselves In tho
sun, tho maidens wade in und snatch
up tho clUld, and first ono carries him
and then another carries him, and all
the way up tho bank ho runs a gantlet
of caresses, till Thonorls rushes out of
tho bathing house and says: "Beauti
ful foundling, I will adopt you as my
own. You shall yet wear tho Egyptian
crown and sit on tho Egyptian throne,"
Not Not No I Uo U to bo tho
emancipator of tho Hebrews, Tell It
In all the brick kilns. Toll It among
all those who aro writhing under tho
lash. Tell It among all tho castles of
Memphis and llellopolls and Zoau and
Tnobos. Before him a sea will part
his best, and liard tho poor fellow cry
ami saw the blood spurt. Moes doubled
up his list and struck him on the tem
ple till the cruel villain rolled over in
tho sand exanimate and never swung
tho lash again. Served him right!
GOD WITH MOSIM.
But, Moses, aro you going to under
take the i iipossibilitiesT You feel that
you are grnng to free the Hebrews from
bondage. But where is your army?
Where Is your navy? Not a sword have
yon, not a spoor, not a chariot, not a
horse. Ah ' God was on his side and
he has an nrmy of his own. The
rnowstorms are on Orod s side witness
the snowbanks in which tbo French
army of invasion were buried on their
wny back from Moscow. The rain is
ou his side witness the lSth of June at
Waterloo, when the tempest so satu
rated the road that tho attack could not
be made on Wellington's forces until
eleven o'clock and he was strong
enough to hold out until re-enforcements
arrived.
Had that battle been opened at Ave
o'clock in the morning instead of at
eleven, the destiny of Europe would
havo been turned the wrong way. The
heavy rain decided everything. So
also are the winds and the waves on
God's side witness the Armada with
one hundred and fifty ships and twenty
six hundred and fifty guns and eight
thousand sailors and twenty thousand
soldiers sent out by Philip II of Spain
to conquer England.
What became of those men aud that
shipping? Ask -the wind and the waves
all along the English and Irish coasts.
The men and the ships all wrecked or
drowned or scattered. So I expect
that Moses will be helped in rescuing
the Israelites by a special weaponry.
To the Egyptian the Nile was a deity.
Its waters were then as now very de
licious. It was the finest natural bev
erage of oil the earth. We have no
such lovo for the Hudson, and Ger
man's have no such love for the Rhine,
and Russians have no such love for the
sea rolled shut against the Egyptian
pursuers.
It was about two o'clock in the morn
ing when the interlocked oiletrees of the
Egyptian chariots could not move an
Inch either way. But the Red sea un
hitched the horses and unhelmeted the
warriors and left tho proud host a
wreck on the Arabian sands. 1'uea
two chornes arose, and Moses led the
meu In the one, and Miriam led the
women in the other, and the women
beat time with their feet The record
says: "All tho women went out after
her with timbrels and with dances.
And Miriam answered them, 8mg ye
to the Lord, for ho hath triumphed
gloriously; the horse and his rider hath
he thrown into the sea." What a thrill
ing story of endurance and victory 1
Tho greatest triumph of Handel's
genius was shown In his Immortal dra
matic oratorio. "Israel in Etnrot" He
bad given to tho world the oratorio of
"Esther and Deborah" and Atliauau,
but reserved for his mightiest exertion,
at tho full height of his powers, the
marshaling of all musical intruinents
to the description in harmony of the
scenes on which we this morning dwelL
He gave twenty-seven days to this pro
duction, with its twenty -eight choruses,
enthralling his own time and all after
time with his "Israel In Egypt"
THK lllKDBS3 OK EGYPT.
So the burden of oppression was
lifted, but another burden of Egypt is
made up of deserts. Indeed, Africa is
a great continent for deserts, Libyan
desert, Sahara desert, deserts here and
there and vonder, condemning vast
regions of Africa to btrrenuess, one of
the deserts three thousand miles long
and a thousand miles wide. But all
those deserts will yet be flooded, and so
made fertile. De Lesseps says it can
be done, and he who planned tho Suez
canal, which marries the Red sea and
tho Mediterranean, knows what he is

Another burden of Egypt to bo

Into tho gore of a slaughter house, and
'hroagh tho sluices aud fish ponds tho
incarnadined liquid backs up Into tho
land, and the malodor whelms every
thing from mud hovel to throne room.
Then camo the frogs with horrible croak
all over everything. Then this people,
cleanly almost to fastidiousness, were
Infested with insects that belong to
tho filthy and unkempt, and the air
buzzed and buzzed with flies, and then
the distemper started cows to bellow
ing and horses to neighing nnd camels
to groaning, as they rolled over and ex
pired. And then boils, ono of which will put
a man in wretchedness, came in clus
ters from the top of the head to tho
sole of the foot And then the clouds
dropped hail and lightning. And then
locusts came in, bwarms of them, wore
than tho grasshoppers ever were in
Kansas. And then darkness dropped
for three days, so that tho people could
not see their hand before their face, i
great surges of midnight covering them. '
And lost of all, on the night of tho
18th of April, about eighteen hundred
years before Christ, the destroying an
gel sweeps past; und hear it all night
long, the flap! flap! flap 1 of his awful
wings until Egypt rolled on, a great
hearse, tho eldest child dead in every
Egyptian home. The eldest son of
Pharaoh expired that night in the pal
ace and all along tho streets of Mem
phis and Heliopolis and all up and
down the Nile there was a funeral wall
that would have rent the fold of tho
unnatural darkness If it had not been
impenetrable.

The IsraelitUh homes, however, were
untouched. But these homes were full
of preparation, for now is your chance,
O ye wronged Hebrews! Snatch up
what pieces of food you can and to tho
desert 1 Its simooms aro better than
tho bondage you have suffered. Its
scorpions will not sting so sharply as
the wrongs that havo stung you all
your lives. Awayl Tho man who was
cradled in the basket of papyrus on tho
Nile will lead you. Up! Up! This U
tho night of your rescue. They gather
together at a signal. Alexander's
armies and nil tho armies of olden tlmo
were led by torches on high poles,
great crest of Are; and the I.ord Al
mighty kindles a torch not hold by hu
man hands, but by omnipotent hand.
Not mado out ot straw or oil, but
kindled out of tho atmosphere, such a
torch as the w orld never saw before
and never will seo again. It reached
from the earth unto the heaven, a pll
good
thirms about that religion. Its dis
tiples must always wash before they
pray, and that is five times a day. A
commendable grace is cleanliness
Strong drink Is positively forbidden by
Mohammedanism, and though somo
may havo seen a drunken Mohamme
dan, I never" saw one. It is a religion
of sobriety. Tiien they aro not ashamed
I of their devotions. When the call for
I prayers is sounded from the minarets
t tho Mohammedan immediately unrolls
tho rug on the ground nnl fall3 on his
knees, and crowds of spectators are to
him no embarrassment reproof to
many a Christian who omits his pray
ers if people aro looking.
But Mohammedanism, with its po
lygamy, blights everything it touches.
Mohammed, its founder, had four
wives, and his followers ure the enemies
of good womanhood. Mohammedan
Urn puts its cur.se on all Egypt, and by
setting up a sinful Arab higher than
tho immaculate Christ, Is an over
whelming bl.iphemy. May God help
tho bravo and consecrated missionaries
, who are spending their lives in combat
ing it.
But before I forget it I must put
J more emphas upon tho fact that the
i last outrago that resulted in tho libera
tion of the Hebrews was their being
' compelled to make brieks without
I straw. That .was the last straw that
i broke tho camel's back. God would

When In December of 18S9, at tho
museum at Boulac, Eg pt I looked at
the mummies of the Pharaohs, the very
miscreants who diabolizcd centuries,
and I saw their teeth and hair and fin
ger nails and the flesh drawn tight over
their cheek bones, the sarcophagi of
tlieso dead monarclis side by side, and
I was so fascinated I could only with
difficulty get away from the spot, I
was not looking upon the last of tho
Pharaohs. All over the world old
merchants playing tho Pharaoh over
young merchants, old lawyers playing
the Pharaoh over young lawyers, old
doctors playing the Pharaoh over
young doctors, old artists playing the
Pharaoh over young artists, old min
isters playing tho Pharaoh over young
ministers.
Let all oppressors, whether In homes,
in churches, in stores, in offices, in fac
tories, in social life or political life, in
private life or publio life know that
God hates oppressors, and they will all
come to grief here or hereafter. Pha
raoh thought ho did a fine thing, a cun
ning thing, a decisive thing when for
the complete extinction of tlie Hebrews
In Egypt he ordered all the Hebrew
boys massacred, but he did not And it
so fine a thing when his own first born
that night of the destroying angel
dropped dead on Hie mosaic floor at
the foot of the porphyry pillar of the
palace. Let all the Pharaohs take
warning. Some of the worst of them
aro. on a small scale in households as
when a man, because his arm is strong
and his voice loud, dominates his poor
wife into u domestic slavery.
There are thousands of such cases
where the wife. is a lifetime serf, her
opinion disregarded, her tastes insulted,
and her existenco a wretchedness,
though the world may not know it. It
is a Pharaoh that sits at the liead of
that table, and a Pharaoh thnt tyran
nizes that home. There is no more ab
horrent Pharaoh than a domestic Pha
raoh. There are thousands of women
to whom death is passage from Egypt
to Canaan, because they get rid of n
cruel taskmaster.
What an accursed monster is that
man who keeps his wife in dread about
family expenses, and must be cautious
how sho introduces an nrticle of mil
linery or womanly wardrobe without
humiliating consultation and apology.
Who Is that man acting so? For six
months in order to win that woman's
heart, he sent her every few days n
bouquet wound with white ribbon, and
an endearing couplet, and took her to
concerts and theaters, and helped her
Into carriages as though she were a
princess, and ran across tho room to
pick up her pocket handkerchief with
tho speed of an antelope, and on the
marriago day promised all that the lit
urgy required, saying, "I will?" with
an emphasis that excited the admira
tion of nil spectators.
But now he begrudges her two cents
for a postage stamp, and wonders why
sho rides across Brooklyn bridge when
tho foot pa&jago costs nothing. He
thinks now she is awful plain, and ho
acts liko tho devil, while he thunders
eut: "Where did you got that now hat
from? That's where my money goes.

sako of avoiding a scandal she keeps
silent; but her tears and wrongs havo
