io the ear it Ing times thru.ph wl.-uii wu
ore now jmssi-o tl.ie sermon at It Tal
nuMe. iu which he pro[oe«s to cheer the
pc-aplu who me sadiii i.ici ly ska bmiors of
war; text. Psalios xxvii. 3 ' Though
war should rise agtdm.t me, in this will I
bo confident.
The ring of battleaxes, and the clash of
liiields, and the tramp <>f armies, are
heard ail up and down the Old Testament,
and you find godly soldiers like Moses and
.Joshua and Caleb and Gideon and scoun
drelly soldiers like Sennacherib and Shnl
ruuniMcr and Nebuchadnezzar. The high
priest would stand at the head of the army
and say, "Hear, <> Isriwl, y< approach thin
day unto battle against your enemies, let
not your hearts laint, fear not and do not.
tremble, neither tie ye terrified because of
them! 1 ' And then the officers would give
command to the troop-, saying: "What
man is there that hath built a new house
and hath not dedieaUtl it? Let, I,lm go
and return to his holts', I<-1, he die in the
battle ami am,liar n.. ri <3 dilate it And
what n an is he that hath planted a vine
yard and hath not eaten of it? I>et him also
go and 1 eturn unto bis house, li st he die
in the buttle nnd another man eat. of it.
And what man is them U;..t hath betrothed
a w ifeand hath not taki nhi r? Let him go
and return unto Lis house, lest he die in
the battle and another man take her.”
'ireiit armies marched and fought. In
time of Moses and Joshua all the men
were soldiers. When I tael camo out of
Egypt, they wi re tiuu.oolY fighting men.
Abijah lainnraiidrd lii(>,ut<i. Jeroboam
commanded boo.tluo mt 11, of whom StiO.tiOO
were .lain in one battle. Some of these
ware God approved, for they were for the
r< s< uo of oppressed nations, und some of
them he denoum <ni, but in all cases it was
a judgment upon both victors and van
quished. David knew just what war was
when ho wrote in the text, ‘‘Though war
should rise against me, in this will I be
confident. ”
David is encouraging himself in stormy
times, and before approaching battles ad
ministers to himself the consolatory. So
today my theme is tiio “Alleviations of
War.” War is organized atrocity. It is
the science of assassination. It is the con
vocation of all horrors. It is butchery
wholesale. It is murder glorified. It is
death on a throne of human skeletons, it
is the eollin in ascendency. It is diabolism
nt a game of skulls. But war is hero,
mil it is time now to preach mi its allovi
itionH
K< union of North and South.
First, 1 find an alleviation in the fact
that it has consolidated the north and the
south alter long continued strained rela
tione. It Is 33 years since our civil war
dosed, and the violences uro all gone and
the severities have been hushed. But ever
and anon in oration, in sermon, in news
paper editorial, in magazine article, on
political stump and in congressional hall
the old sectional difference has Jilted its
head, and for the first time within my
memory or the memory of any one who
hears or reads these words the north ami
the south are one. By 11 marvelous provi
dence the family that led in opposition to
our government 30 years ago is represent
j<i ut the front in this present war. Noth
itig else could have done the work of uni
fication so suddenly or so completely ns
iliis conflict. At Ttimpa, at Chattanooga,
at Richmond and in many other places the
regiments are forming, and it will be side
by side, Massachusetts ami Alabama, Now
York and Georgia, Illinois and Louisiana,
Maine and South Carcdina. Northern and
southern nun will together unlimber the
guns and rush upon the fortification and
charge upon the enemy and shout the tri
umph. Tho voices of military officers who
were under Sidney Johnston und Joseph
Booker will give tho command on the
same side, the del sectional grudges for
ever dead. Tho name of Grant on the
nnrthorn side anil of Loe on the southern
side will bo exchanged for the names of
Grant and Lee on the same side. The vet
erans in northern and southern homes and
asylums are stietehing their rheumatic
limbs to see whether they can again keep
■ top In a match and are testing thdir eye
-ight <0 find whether they can again look
dong the gun barrel to successfully take
dm and lire. '1 ho old warcry of “On to
Richmond I” and "On to Washington!”
has become tho warcry of “On to Ha
vana!” “On to Puerto Kieol” “On to the
Philippine islands!” The two old rusty
swords that in other days clashed at Mur
freesboroami South Mountain irml Atlanta
ire now lilted to strike down Hispanic
abominations.
An Vuselfisli War.
Another alleviation of tho war is tho
fact, that it is the most unselfish war of tho
ages. While the commercial rights of our
wronged citizens will be vindicated, that
is not the chief idea of this war It is tho
rescue of hundreds of thousands of people
from starvation and multiform maltreat
ment. A friend who went out under the
flag of tho Reil Cross two years ago to as
suage suffering in Armenia, and who has
been on tho same mission, under tho same
flag, in Cuba, says that the sufferings in
Armenia were a comedy anil a farce com
pared with the greater sufferings of Cuba.
At. least SOO,eno graves are calling to us to
conic on ami remember by what process
their occupaids died. It is the twentieth
century crying out to the nineteenth: “Do
you mean to pass down to ns the curse
with which you have been blasted? Or
will you lot me begin under new auspices
nnd turn the island of desolation into an
island Edeiiic?”
It is a war inspired by mercy, which is
hu attribute in man imitative of the same
Attribute of God. In no other age of the
world could such a war have been waged.
The gospel of kindness needed to be recog
nized throughout Christendom in order to
make such a war possible. The chief rea
son why most of the European nations are
not now banded together against us is be
cause they dare not take the part of that
behemoth of cruelty, the Spanish govern
ment, against the crusade of mercy which
our nation has started. Had it been on
our part a war of conquest, a war of an
nexation, a war of aggrandizement, there
would have been by >his time enough fly
ing squadrons coining to this country
across the Atlantic to throw into panic
every city on our American seaboard.
The wars of the crusaders were only to
regain an empty sepulcher; the Napoleon
ic wars, with their 6,000,000 slaughtered
men, were projected ami carried out to ap
pease the ambition of one man; of the 25,-
000,000 slain in Jewish wars and of the
60.000,000 slain in wars under Julius
Caesar, of the 180,000,000 slain in wars
with Turks and Saracens, of the 50.000,-
000 slain in wars of Xerxes, of the 20,000.-
000 slain in wars of Justinian and the 32.-
000,000 slain in the wars of Genghis Khan
not one man was sacrificed by mercy, but
in this Hispanic-American war every
drummer Loy or picket or gunner or
standard bearer or skirmisher or sharp
shooter or cavalryman or artilleryinftn or
engineer who falls falls in the cause of
mercy and becomes a martyr for God aud
his country.
The Principle of Liberty.
Another alleviation of this war is that
it- is for the advancement of the sublime
principle of liberty, which will yet engir
dle the earth. Not only will this war free
Cuba, but finally will free Spain. By
what right dees a dynasty like that stand,
and a corrupt court dominate a people for
centuries, taxing them to death, riding in
gilded chariot over the necks of a beggared
population? There are 10,000 boys iu
Spain growing up with mure capacity to
govern that nation than will the weak boy
now in the Madrid palace ever possess.
Before this conflict is over the Spanish
nation will be well 00 towanl the time
when a constitutional convention will as
semble to establish a free government in
stead of the wurnout dynasty chat now
afflicts the people. The liberty of till na
tions, transatlantic as well as cisatlantic,
if -not already established, is on the way
and it canuut be stopped.
N.'q.' L on he find successful
ly driven the principle outuf France when
on th<- 2<i nay of December, laLl, he rode
down the Champs EJysi of Faris, con
stituiii.nal govcri:i..< ;>r <■ i i: iugly crushed
under tne bout's ot his steed. But did it
stay crushed! Let the batteries on the
heigi'ta above Sedan answer, ami the shout
of 2uU,OWi conqui ring hosts, and the letter
of su>r<i<ilei Io l.u.p'iHi '.'.'ill.i a tell the
story “Sir.-, my I o iLur, not ha.iiig beeti

)o'jr g.-xi l :..ii.< r, Nap. Leu Sedan, 1
lb'.)- I'l.ut li.cmi: by havinu
fallen, then the tti ir i. republic ieoumed
its march.
A Goo«l Beginning.
Another alleviation ie that the waropens
with a great victory f< r the United States.
It took our government four years to get
over the fiasco at Bull Run. A defeat at
tho start of this present war would have
been disheartening to the last degree and
would have invited foreign intervention
to stop the war b< fore anything practical
for God and humanity had been accom
plished and would have prolonged tho
strife for which we are hoping a quick
termination. In the most jubilant man
ner let this victory of our navy be cele
brated. With the story of the exploding
battleship fresh in the minds of the world,
it required no ordinary courage to sail in
to the hai i rof Manilla and attack the
Spanish shipping, 'i hal Larbor, crowded
wiiii sunken weaponry of death—to enter
it was running a rink enough to .make all
nations sbi •. <-r. But Manilla is ours, and
the blow hi •; -haken to ti e foundation the
pal ice.. ot N ..drill, and lor policy's sake
tne doubtful nations are on our side. For
Commodore Dewey- and ail vv n<» b.llowed
him Jet th< . holt- mitifm litter its most re
sounding 1. ...za, su.<: mor. i: an that, let
us thank the Lord of hosts for his guiding
and protecting povtpr. "Praise yo the
Lord! Let everything that hath breath
ju l ..rie the Lord!”
Might AHi v l With Right.
Another .'.deviation the fact that in
iliis war tl.e mis <hi the ,->ifie of thu
right. Ageiii ami a; 1 .- hi u.-ivc Hr. and
justice and suturing im.canity had the
mills agaimt then; It was so when Ben
imdi.di s ?iyi hosts, who v.eic in the
wrong, at .'.piie.k < aii.e upon the smAii regi
ments of Israel, who were iu thu right,
tho Biide pt: 11 itig it In onoof those graphic
sentenoea for which the book is remark
tilde, “The ciiildien of Israel pitched be
foie them like two In iie flocks< 1 kids, but,
tbaSyriam; liilcct the whole country.” It
was so iii the awful defeat of the Lord’;,
people at Gilboa aud Megiddo. It was so
recently when gallant ami glorious Greece
was in loiiiiict wit.li gigantic Mohamme
danism, umi the navies of Europe hover
mg about thu Bosporus were in practical
protection ot tho Turkish government,
irSkh From the slaughter of 100,000 Arme
nians. It was so when? in 1776, thu 13
colonies, with no war shipping and a few
umlrilleil and poorly clad soldiers, were
•brought into a contest with the mightiest,
navy of all thu earth and an army that
commanded the admiration of nations. It
was t o when Poland was crushed. It was
so when Hungary went under. It has
been so during all the struggles heretofore
tor Cuban independence. But now it is
our power!til r.avy against a feeble group
of incompetent ships, crawling across the
Atlantic tc- meet our flotillas, which have
■cough guns to s; r.u them as Completely
amler as when the Red sea sulimerged
I’haiaoh’s army. It is so in these times
when oqly a few thousand Spaniards at
n.i‘.'t can reacli our hemisphere, and we go
out to meet them with 175,UD0 armed men,
to Im hacked upspeudiiy w ith 500,001) more
if needed. do not have to ask for any
miracle, but only a li.lr shot at the ships
beaded this way and time enough lode
mulish them. This i.-' one oL She cases in
tin 1 world > history v. L ie miglitami right
are shouhii r to slioukier.
Crime Must Be Puuihlvcil.
Another alleviation is in the fact that
such rm aiiccity as the dcst-rmlieu of 266
lives in Havana harbor in time of peace
cannot with impunity be wrought in this
ago of the. world’s civilization. The ques
tion as to who did that, infornalism is too
well settled to med any further discussion
But whai a small < rime it was compared
with the systematic putting into their
graves of hundreds of thousands of Cu
bans or leaving them unburied for the
buzzards to take c.rie ot! If Spain could
destroy 200,000 men, women and children,
the slaughter of 266 people was not a very
great tindi iraking. But this one last deed
will result in the liberation of Cuba, and
the driving <>f Spain irom this hemisphere
and the overthrow of that, goveinment,
which will soon drop to ’jduics if it does
not go dow n under l.ombuidmejst of in
sult. <1 nations.
There was danger that the long con
tinued opa iu.-sioii i i our neigkbois in Cuba
might, be ccutinued from generation to
geneiat.ion without sufficient protest on
our part ami the pronounced execration of
people on Loth sides of tho Atlantic, hut.
that bursting ’.olcanoof dostructiffn in the
harbor of Havana fired tho nation and
shocked the tv hole civilized world. All mi
lions will learn that such an act. cannot be
repeated without the anathema of all
i Christendom. As individual criminals
must, be punished for the p.ublic good, and
we have for them courts of oyer and ter
miiicr and pi iiitcnt iai u s and electric chairs
and hui-.gmiin’s gailows, so governments
committ.ng high crimos against God and
liumani'.v musjkbe scourged and hung up
for the iiirJil.'s indignation. When in
Spanish waters our battleship, looking
after our commercial interests and intend
ing nothing but quietude, was hurled into
demolition and the men on board, without
time to utter one w ord of prayer, were
dashed into the eternal world, the doom
of the reigning house of*Spain was pro
nounced in tones lender than the thunder
which that, night rolled out over the sea.
<lO.l Ih With I'D.
Another alleviation is the fact that we
have a God to go to in behalf of all those
of our countrymen who may be in especial
exposure at the front, for we must admit
the perils. It is no trifling thing for 100,-
000 young men to be put outside of home
restraints and sometimes into evil com
panionship. Many of the bravo of the
earth are not the good of the earth. To be
in the same tent with those who have no
regard for God or home, to hoar their holy
religion sometimes slurred at, to be placed
under influences calculated to make one
reckless, to have no Sabbath except such
Sabbath as in most encampments amounts
to lio Sabliatb at all. togoout from homes
where all sanitary laws are observed into
surroundings w here questions of health
are never discussed, to ir.v ade climes where
pestilence hylds possession, to make long
marches under blistering skies, to stand
on deck ami in the fields under lire at the
mercy of shot and shell—we must admit
that those thus exposed need especial care,
and to the omnipresent God wo have a
right to commend them and will com
mem: them. Postal communication may
be interrupted ami letters started from
camps or homes may not arrive at the
right destination, but. however far away
our loved om s may be from ns ami how
ever wide and do p the seas that separate
us. we may hold communication with
them via the throne c.f God.
A shipwrecked sailor was found floating
on a raft near the ecast of California
While in hospital he told his experience
and said t-bat he bad a companion. on the
same raft for some time While that com
panion was dying of thirst he said to him,
"Gtorge, where are you going?” and the
dying sailm said. “I hope 1 am going to
God.”’ "if you do. ’ said the rescued sail
or, “will you ask him to send some wa
ter?” After the dc-atii of his companion,
the suvivor said, the rain came in torrents
and slaked bis thirst and kept him alive
until lie was taken to safety. The survivor
always thought it was in answer to the
message be had sent to heaven asking for

the Lord. Almighty thruuuh J. sus Christ,
bis only begotten Sou ar.d in that faith
wo may si< ure the nscue of our imjx-rik-d

Pray For Our Country.
Until this conflict is ended let us be
much in prayer for our beloved country.
Do not let us depend upon the friendship
of foreign Rations- Our hope is In-God.
Out of every misfortune be has brought
this nation to a Letter moral and financial
condition, and so let us pray that he will

for the lest of their lives have stories to
tell oi double quick march, and narrow
escape, and charges up the parapets, and
nights set on lira with bombardment, and
our flag hauled up to places from which
other flags were hauled down.
Away With Barbarism.
Now that we have started on the work
let us make that Spanish government gat
out of this hemisphere. We do not want
her any more, with her injustices ami bar
barism ami stilettos of ecuelty, hanging
’Hound thu shores of this true land. Shu
must not breathe her foul breath on our
winds; she must not again redden our seas
with her butcheries. 'There bids fair to
be a scene on the deep as disastrous to the
Spanish us that which whelmed their
armada in 1588. Philip 11, king of Spain,
resolved on the conquest of Europe, and
already in the compass of his dominions,
besides Spain, woie Naples and Sicily, anil
thu .Netherlands, and the East Indies, and
the Canary and Molucca and Sunda and
Philippine islands, ami Mexico ami Cuba,
and some of the most splendid parts of
Amoriea. Ail the nations of the eartli ex
cept England were to her underlings, and
the Spanish king resolved that even Eng
land must bow the knee. Although the
destructive strength of modern battleships
was then unknown, the Spanish armada
started for the subjection of England with
about 140 great ships, with 2,600 guns,
4,000 cavalry horses and 32,000 men. The
battleships were provisioned wltii 147,000
casks of wine and six moutlis of provi
sions. The commanders and officers of
these war vessels were dukes and mar
quises and noblemen. At Plymouth,
England, on tho 10th of July tho promi
nent officers of the navy were in a bowling
alloy, bowling with great —Lord
Howard, the high admiral; Sir Martin
Frobisher, tho daring explorer, anil Sir
Francis Drake, the first circumnavigator
of the world—when word came to them
that tli<’ Spanish armada was advancing.
Tho officers continued at the game of the
bowling alley until the game was finished
and then went out to investigate the ti
dings, and, sure enough, that mighty float
which was considered in vincible and which
was to bombard and overthrow England
was appixiiiuhing, but the invading navy
was destroyed, for the Lord Almighty ap
peared in the fight.
Old and New Spanish Armada.
A storm such as had never swept the
coast of England or aroused tho ocean
swooped upon thu Spanish armada. Most
of the ships soon wont down under the
sea, while others wore driven helplessly
along to be splintered on the coasts of
England, Ireland, Scotland and Norway.
Another Spanish armada is crossing the
Atlantic, ami we are ready to meet them.
The same God who destroyed the armada
in 1588 reigns in 1898. May he in -his
might, either through human arm or
dumb element, defeat their squadron and
give victory to tho old flag of Admiral'
Farragut and David Porter!
Yet what the world most wants is
Christ, who is coming to take possession
of all hearts, ail homes, all nations, but
the world blocks thu wheels of his chariot.
I would like to see this century, which is
now almost wound up, find its peroration
in some mighty overthrow of tyrannies
and a mighty building up of liberty and
justice. Almost all the centuries have
ended with some stupendous event that
transformed nations and changed the map
of the world. It was so at the close of the
fourteenth century; it was so at the close
of the fifteenth century; it was so at tho
close of tho sixteenth century; it was so at
the close of the seventeenth century; it
was so at the close of tho eighteenth cen
tury. May it be more gloriously so at tho
close of the nineteenth century! “Blessed
be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting
to everlasting, and let the whole eaisth be
filled with his glory.” Amen and amen!
HOW TO LOOK GOOD.
Good looks are really more than skin
deep, depending entirely on a healthy con
dition of all the vital organs. If the liver
is inactive, you have a bilious look; if
your stomach is disordered, you have a
dyspeptic look: if your kidneys are af
fected, you have a pinched look. Secure
good health, and you will surely have good
looks. "Electric Bitters” is a good Altera
tive and Tonic. Acts directly on the stom
ach, liver and kidneys, purifies the blood,
cures pimples, blotches and boils, and
gives a good complexion. Every bottle
guaranteed. Sold at H. J. Lamar & Sons’
Drug Store. 50 cents per bottle.
“By Houk or Crook."
In old times tho poor of a manor were
permitted to obtain as fuel the dead
wood from the surrounding woodland
The dead twigs aud branches which
were beyond their reach they were al
lowed to lop off with a hock or a crook.
There is a document among the rec-'
ords of the town of Bodmin which give*
the right tb the burgesses of the town,
under the concession of the prior of
Bodmin, “co bear and carry away on
their backs and in no other way the lop,
crop, hoop, crook aud bag wood in the
prior’s wood of Dnnmeer. ”
Another part of this paper mentions
this as "a right with hook and crook to
lop, crop and carry away fuel, etc., in
the same wood. ”
The date of this record is 1525. New
York World.
What He Thought.
1 know,’’ said the candidate for the
small office to the veteran, “that you
wouldn't sell your vote.’’ “No, sub, I
wouldn’t!’’ “That you can’t be bribed?”
“Now yo’ talkin, sub!” J “But suppose
I should make you a present of $10?
What would you think?’’ The voter
looked thoughtful, then said, “Well,
Marse Jim, jedgin by yo’ pas’ record,
I’d either think yo’d done los’ yo’ min’,
or else yo’s in de counterfeitin busi
ness!”—Atlanta Constitution.
Discovered by a Woman.
Another great discovery has been made
and that, too, by a lady in this country.
“Disease fastened its clutches upon her
aud for seven years he withstood its se
verest tests, but her vital organs Were
undermini d and her death seemed immi
nent. For three months she coughed in
cessantly and could not sleep. She finally
discovered away to recovery by purchas
ing ot us a bottle of Dr. King's New Dis
covery for Consumption, and was so much
relieved on taking the first dose that she
slept all night and with two bottles has
been absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs.
Luther Lutz.” Thus writes Mr. W. C.
Hammick & -Co., of Shelby, N. C. Trial
, bottles free at H. J. Ijamar & Sons’ drug
store. Regular size 56c and sl. Every
bottle guaranteed.
