Church to Members
of the Third.
GOOD MEN AND BRAVE.
Eulogy for Lietenant Hobson- Faith
is the Soldier’s Best Armor
on the Field of Battle.
The following sermon, preached by Rev.
H O. Judd, to the soldiers of the Third
regiment, will be read with interest by
those who were not fortunate enough to
hear the delivery:
Preached before Company A, Third
Regiment of Georgia Volunteers by th*
R< v. H o. Judd, in St. Paul's church, Ma
con, Ga., July 10, 1898.
“Wherefore take unto you the whole ar
mor of God that ye may be able to with
stand in the evil day and having done all
to stand.” —Eph. vi. 13.
There is no room in the world for a cow
ard A man without courage is a libel on
God's handiwork.
The Whole economy of life is such as to
demand of every individual the spirit to
do and dare in all worthy enterprise. Phys
ically we stand face to face with conflict
ing natural forces which must be conquer
ed. Man muet eat bread in the sweat of
his face. The sluggard is a cowa-d who is
sent to the ant to learn wisdom. He is de
clared by .icrlpture to be worse than an in
fidel. Mentally the demand is just as great
for courageous effort. There is no royal
way to learning Only the man who is
brave enough to put down his love of ease
and subject himself to discipline and toil,
can ever know the pride and power of cul
ture. Even men of ability and training are
sometimes destitute of courage to' turn
their acquirements to advantage, like the
timid man in commerce who wiil not ven
ture his means for fear of losing. ‘ There
is a tide in the affairs of men which taken
at its How leads on to fortune.”
Courage is the result of reunion of reso
lution and fortitude. Resolution to un
dertake a labor and fortitude to bear and
endure the trials of its prosecution Cour
age may be said to be of two sorts, physical
and moral. A man may be actuated by one
or both of them. We say that man is as
brave as t lion. Yes, and his courage may,
like that of the lion, be without reason and
producean immoral instinct, a natural pug
nacity and love of conflict. Mer? physical
courage is liable to be passionate and
stormy*, easily influenced by avarice or
malice. Such courage* is not inconsistent
with moral cowardice. In th'* dark days
of dueling nu n were often led to accept a
challenge from fear of a purverted public
sentiment. They were not brave enough
to obey conscience rather than submit to a
false code of honor. A man may face
death and take his chances on the battle
field from some other th in a patriot! • mo
tive; he may be impelled by ambition or
caught by the infection of a popular move
ment and he may stand by h's colors from
a fear of the penalty for desertion.
Many men have little physical courage,
but tin y are easily moved by excitement
which may stimulate a reckless bravery.
It has been said that the MarsrJlles hymn
did more to precipitate the Ereneli revolii
tion w'th all its animal ferocity than all
other cm ass combined.
A man without physical eourgaa may,
from a moral motive, from love of count! y
or i sense of Justice, overcome his timidity
and act with the bravest. This is the
highest kind of courage; it is based on
principle and enforced by sentiment.
Moral courage is prompted *.y a .»«eve
of duty the force of obligi'inn »» or: ac
coidmg to convictions of,what is just ami
right And it will be found true, as a rule,
that the bravest man in peril was ike
truest man in peace. IT? was brave to tell
the truth, though the heavens should fall'
brave to deal honestly though want should
stare him in the face; brave to put down
his passions when temptations assailed
him. Such a man when peril comes is
strong to meet it. Such a man is he whose
name is on the nation's lips and whose no
ble daring is a world-wide inspiration today.
Young Hobson had proved and confirmed
his courage before he went to face death
on the Merrimac; he proved it at Annap
olis as a cadet, die went there armed, not
with a pistol or a sword, but with Bible
and prayer book, and to use them was a
duty from which he could not be moved by
the taunts and jeers of his companions.
To fear to do wrong, to obey God rather
than man, is the badge of moral heroism.
It follows that the highest test of moral
courage is not amid the glammor and ex
citement of war, which may intoxicate and
make one reckless of both principle and
life. That man gives the highest proof of
his fearless devotion to duty who singly,
it may b.>, and in obscurity, sacrifices what
most men live for. in the prosecution of
some work for the glory of God and the
good of his fellows. He is said to be the
world's greatest benefactor who makes
two blades of grass to grow in place of one.
Peace hath its victories no less than war.
A certain missionary society has engraved
upon its seal the figure of an ox with a
plow standing upon one side of it and
an altar on the other. The meaning is
clearly, ready for labor or for sacrifice.
Over against the history of military
struggle and their heroism is that of hit
mantarian ami missionary labors. What a
noble example of the farmer was that of
Father Haman, a monk, who went alone to
minister to a colony of lepers on an island
is the Pacific ocean. When he perished
there was a generous rivalry among
those who wised to succeed him. The
same was true of the English bishop. Han
nington. who was martyred in Central Af
rica. What robust courage Luther dis
played when going to his almost certain
doom at the Diet of Worms He exdaimed
to his friends who spught to dissuade him.
"I would go thither though every tile on
every house in yonder city were a devil.”
This is the purest heroism —an unfaltering
fidelity to principle springing 'corn s:i all
absorbing love of the truth. This ; s not a
natural disposition but the gift of the spir
it of God. It was characteristic of the
Apostles, notably of St. Peter, who was
naturallv deficient in physical courage.
His boldness was afterward conspicuous.
Christ sent his disciples forth as iambs
among wolves and warned them in advance
of their danger. Singly, or two by -wo
they went forth, unfriended and unarmed,
save by faith in God to challenge the hate
and hostility 'of all the heathen world.
Their example was the inspiration of that
great army of martyrs and confessors wto
for ages on the rack, amid the flames, in
the dungeon and the Roman Am;>hithea‘*?r.
bore witness to the truth, and cemented
•with their blood the foundation stones of
Christian civilization.
•When the valient Douglass in the Holy
Land, taking the silver case in which was
the heart of Bruce, threw it into the midst
of the Saracen host, an 1 rushing into the
midst of the fray cried: “Pass first in fight
as thou wert wont to do. and Dougless will
follow thee or die.” he illustrated the force
of example in chivalrous courage.
When Christ in loving sacrifice said to
men. "Follow me.” the world was moved
into sympathy with his heroic spirit. The
weakness of human nature and the subtle
power of the enemy make it necessary
that we hould have spiritual aid and sup
port.
St. Paul presents us with the figure of
a Roman soldier clad in armor to present
the spiritual defense of the Christian pre
pared for conflict. It is no sign of coward
ice to fortify against danger. Courage is
not reckless daring. We have for our
navy, armored ships, and for the army,
forts and rifle pits. Success is often due
more to strategy and means of defense
than to naked brute force. The Apostle
represents the Chri Jan soldier as pano
plied with amor; the shield of faith, the
breast plate c.f righteousness, the helmet
of salvation and the sword of the spirit.
He is said to be thrice armed whose cause
is just. To be on the side of God and the
truth, is to be on the highest vantage
ground.
To have faith in God and accept his
means of grace. To follow Christ and
serve him, is to put on Christ— s ii purity,
his fidelity and 'his truth which shall be
our invincible defense against all the
powers of darkness.
We do not believe that success is ulti
mately on the side of the heavier bat
talions. but wherever truth and justice
are. that is, on the side of God who
through the ages is working his beneficient
will. This was the mind of rhe courageous
faptain Phillips who after the crushing
of the Spanish fleet on the Cuban coast,
said to his men. "I wish you to uncover
your head-: In silent acknowledgement of
the hand of Providence in this bloodless
victory; and I wish here publicly to pro
fess my belief in God the Father Al
mighty.” Never, probably, under like
circumstances, was there a more touching
exhibition of manly courage than in this
simple trustful acknowledement before the
world of that "Divinity -which shapes our
ends, rough hew them though we may.”.
That man does not know what it is to de
bate or temporize with conscience. It is
his, not to question, but to obey though
he should have to go through fire and
water. When after two thousand years
Herculanium and Pompeii were stripped
of their winding sheet of ashes and lava,
at one of the public gates was found a
sentinel still standing at his post where
on that fate ful day ages before, death had
found him. Suoh firmness may he the re
sult of military discipline. But that Chris
tian fortitude which is an element o*f true
courage, and to which St. Paul refers
when he says “And having done all to
stand, comes of faith in God and the
righteous working of his will.” This Is the
inspiration of all true heroism. It gave
to tihe world the character of St. Paul
who, measured by his fearless struggles,
his sufferings and his conquests, stands
towering far above, the bravest and the
mightiest in civil and military annals.
Said he, “I die daily." What more touch
ing commentary on 'his life could we have
than his simple declaration to the Ephe
sian brethren. “And now, belhold! I go
Ixiund in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not
knowing the things that shall befall me
these, save that the Holy Ghost witnessed!
in every city, saying that bonds and afflic
tions abide me. but none of these things
move me, neither count I my life dear
unto myself, so that I might finish my
course with joy, and the ministry which
I have received of the Lord Jesus, to test
ify the Gospel of the grace of God.” Soldier
you have here your inspiration to sublime
and ste.i Ifast courage. You have espoused
your countries’ cause, the cause of justice
truth and humanity. -May you see, or seem
to see, upon your banner as the Emperor
Constantine did, upon the face of the
heavens, the form of the cross of Christ,
which is the symbol and power of all that
is truth anil 'best in Christian civilization;
and may you go forth in its defense,
armed with faith in God and love to man.
and though the body perish, the soul may
in death, echo the victor song of St. Paul,
"I have fought a good fight, I have finish
ed my course, henceforth there is laid up
for me a crown of righteousness which the
Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me
at that day, and not to me only, but unto
.di them that love his appearing.”

About one month ago my child, which is
fifteen months old. had an atack of diar
rhoea accompanied by vomiting. I gave
it such remedies as are usually given in
such cases, but as nothing gave relief, we
sent for a physician and it was under his
oare for a week. At this time the child
been sick for about ten days and was
having about twenty-five operations of th?
bowels every twelve hours, and we were
convinced that unless it soon obtained re
lief it would not live. Chambee'ain’s
Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was
recommended, and I decided to try it. I
soon noticed a change for the better; by
its continued use a complete cure was
brought about and it is now perfectly

NARROW ESCAPE
FOR MANY MEN
Collision in the Central Yards
With Section of Brvan’s
Train.
TWO BADLV HURL
One Officer Injured but the Rest Es
caped With a Good Shak
ing Up.
Section No. 5 of Colonel Bryan's train
was run into by a switch engine yesterday
afternoon at the foot of Pine street and
several people were badlj* inju’red.
The wreck was caused by the switchman
at the junction putting the soldier's train
on the wrong track.
Section No. 5 was in charge of Conductor
MoWhortcr and Engineer Ben Campbell.
The train was backing in front of the
Junction and was running at a rapid rate,
when a switch engine, in charge of En
gineer Avant and Fireman Sweeney, with
a caboose in front of it loaded with soldiers
ronded the curve at the coal chute.
Engineer Avant reversed his engine and
applied the air brakes but it was too late.
The trains came together -with a terrible
crash. The caboose was driven into the
Pullman sleeper in which the officers were
riding. The trucks of the sleeper were
knocked from under it and the trucks of
the caboose were driven into the same
position. The cab was splintered into
kindling wood and splinters were scatter
ed all over the tracks.
The smoke stack, headlight and foot
board of the engine were completely de
molished.
Engineer Avant, of the switch engine,
was seriously injured. Four ribs were
broken and his back was severely wrench
ed. Fireman Sweeney jumped and escaped
without injury.
•Mr. James ißainey, of the city fire de
partment, was standing on the steps of
the cab and was badly injured.
Lieutenant Hall, of company E. had his
knee badly hurt. He was standing on the
step of the sleeper .when the crash came
and was thrown violently to the ground.
Captain Cross, of company M. had his
hand badly mashed. Private Jones, ,of
company E. was 'bruised about the head.
Several others were bruised and shaken
up.
it is wonderful that so few people were
hurt as the rear platform of the sleeper
was crowded with soldiers and so was the
caboose, but all of them jumped and es
caped with a few scratches.
rhe Central and Georgia Southern trains
were delayed for an hour as both the
tracks were blockaded. The tracks were
cleared last night and the trains are run
ning all right today.

BRAVE LAWTON.
A Former Comrade Tells a Good Story on
Hirn.
Lexington, Ky., July.—Major John
Green Ballance, of Chicago, Who is here
mustering in the Fourth Kentucky vol
unteers, told the following regarding Gen
eral Lawton, who distinguished himself at
Santiago:
General Lawton is one of the bravest
men I ever saw. I served with him at Ft.
Clark, in 1872. He was then a lieutenant
and quartermaster of the of the Fourth
cavalry. He was a most exemplary sol
dier, except such times ais he went out
with the boys for fun. On one occasion
when the commandant, then cilonel, now
General McKensie, was at San Antonio,
and Lieutenant Colonel, now Major Gen
eral Shafter, was in command, the giant
•Lawton went out with the boys. They had
lots of fun, part of which was the demol
ishing of the fixtures of one of the leading
saloons of the place. When the proprietor
presented a bill for $260 to the lieutenant
the next day he promptly paid it. It is
true that Lawton walked Geronimo down
and effected his capture, but it was the late
Captain Gatewood who went alone to Ge
ronimo’s camp and male the capture pos
sible after the old Indian had been run to
earth.”
HIT THE PIPESTEM
But the Soldier Wanted His Smoke Too
Much to Quit.
Allentown, Pa., July 22.—Daniil Davis,
of the Sixth United States Infantry, is at
home on a furlough. He participated in
the fight around Satiago, and among other
stories, relates this instance of the cool
daring of a member of his regiment:
“I was lying in one of the trenches,” he
said. “About eight feet to my left was
the French military attacae. Between the
attache and me was a member of my com
pany. tDisdaining to lie down, and hun
gry for a smoke, he reached into his pocket
and took out a pipe and some tobacco. He
had just lighted the pipe and taken a few
whiffs when a Mauser clipped the stem
close to his mouth. Looking down and see
ing that the bowl was not broken, and
that sufficient of the stem remained, he
picked up the pipe, filled it with tobacco
again, lit it and proceeded to smoke. The
French officer’s eyes gleamed with admira
tion, as he exclaimed with admiration, as
he exclaimed: “What stuff are you Ameri
cans made of anyway?’ ”

COLON’S GUNS.
Left on the Testing; Ground,
Savs a Genoese Mer
chant.
London, July 22 —,A prominent Genoese
merchant vouches for the statement that
when Italy sold the cruiser Cristobal
Colon, then the Garibaldi, to Spain, her
big guns arrived too late to be tested be
fore being mounted on board. They were
accordingly put on board without being
tested, but the Armstrongs, by whom the
guns were made, insisted upon their being
tested, nevertheless. The Spanish com
mander of the ship protested, declaring
that there was no time for a full test, and
besides, such a test of guns on board would
shatter the furniture, mirros, etc., in the
cabins. The Armstrongs were still insis
tent. and finally a compromise was made
whereby the gains were put ashore and
tested at Spezzia. The test was in every
way satisfactory, but the Spanish com
mander sailed away without again ship
ping the guns. This acounts for the fact
that when the Gristoval Colon was run
ashore and sunk by the ships of the
American fleet on the Cuban coast it was
found that she was without heavy arma
ment.

A magazine or new?p;s;-cr editor must

unly those people read po.*fry who write it
a large pro,x.rtion of the population may
be classed as readers. Perhaps the readers
of other people s poetry are hardly so nu
merous, but there is no doubt that poetry
is widely read and is favorably regarded
by persons who make no literary preten
sions. Ask the very domestic voinun or
the woman in a remote farmhouse If she
keeps a sera, book, and she will in all
probability acknowledge having thus pre

The clubwoman reails put fry, cf course
She lias to if she would stand well, but it
is not so certain that she engages in the
perusal for personal enjoyment. It is
aon vtirnes because she must know about
“tone color’’and who the“poet prophets”
nro, ni:d what Browning meant, and
what Whitman was driving at. and all the
rest of the poet lore—but she reads it, and
the clubwoman, as we all know, makes
up a good part of the community What
she reads and professes to like is of
course only that class of verse admitted
by magazine editors to be poetry, and it is
not exclusively this which is meant when
it Is asserted that all men ami women
read more or less poetry.
The verses that the woman out on the
farm Ims In her scrapb ok. that even the
clubwoman has tucked away in her desk
or hi i- pocketbook along with samples of
silk, or that the man of business carries
in his vest pocket until the bit of paper is
worn out, would not always pass muster
with the critics. Their meter may some
times be faulty, the thoughts may be mere
platitudes, but they somehow express a
sentiment that appeals to th** heart; they
touch the emotions, not the intellect alone;
they speak of common experiences—of
love and longing and loss, of home, of
mother, of child, sometimes of religious
faith, hut always a tender sentiment The
man and woman who cherish these verses
would resent being called sf ntimontal, but
one so callous as not to be moved by gen
uine sentiment, even crudely expressed, is
rare.
Comparatively few read volumes of
verse—poetry, the best of it, is a luxury
that even the elect are apt to take in small
quantities—and the public has learned in
stinctively to pass by most magazine verse
as having nothing in it. That it is perfect
in form and classic in thought means
nothing if soul is not there, and it ie
mechanism rather than soul t hat is usual
ly discernible. It is the poetry found in
the corners of newspapers that is read an<’

taken from the masters, but chosen be
