II WOES OF DRUNKARDS dr. TALMAGE’S STRONG DENUNCIA TION OF INTEMPERANCE. Than Any of the Ten Dianne* That Befell Enypt—lt* Victim. Are CountleMH God'« Grace the Sure Keiuedy. [Copyright, Louis Klopsch, 1899.] Washington, April 30.—At this time, when the evils of the drink traffic are be ing widely discussed and the movement for the abolition of the degrading and brutalizing canteen incur military camps is gaining many supporters, this sermon by Dr Talmage, dealing with the broader aspects of tho plague of intemperance, should cheer and inspire the friends of temperance everywhere. His text is Ex odus xi, 6, “And there shall he a great cry throughout all tho land of Egypt.’’ This was the worst of the ten plagues. The destroying angel at midnight flapped his wing over the land, and there was one dead in each house. Lamentation and mourning and woe through all Egypt. That destroying angel has fled the earth, but a far worse has come. He sweeps through these cities. It is tho destroying angel of strong drink. Ear worse devas tation wrought by this second than by the first. The calamity in America worse than the calamity in Egypt. Thousands of tho slain, millions of tho slain. No arithmetic can calculate their number. Once upon a time four fiends met in the lost world. They resolved that the people of our earth were too happy, and these four internals came forth to our earth on embassy of mischief. The otie fiend said. I’ll take charge of the vineyards.”- An other said, “I’ll take charge of the grain fields.” Another said, “I II take charge of the dairy. ” Another said, “I’ll take < hargeof the music.” The four fiends met in the great Sahara desert, with skeleton fingers clutched each other in handshake of fidelity, kissed each other goodby with lip of blue flame and parted on their mis sion. Tito fiend of the vineyard came in one bright morning amid the grapes and sat down on a root of twisted grapevine in sheer discouragement. The flend knew ; not how to damage tho vineyard or, through it. how to damage the world. I The grapes were so ripe and lieautiful and luscious! 'They bewitched the air with their sweetness. There seemed to ho so much health in every bunch! And while the fiend sat there in utter indignation and disappointment he clutched a cluster and squeezed it in perfect spite, and, 10, his hand was red with the blood of the vineyard, and the' fiend said: “That re minds mo of tho blood of broken hearts. I'll strip tho vineyard, and I’ll squeeze out al! tho juice of tho grapes, and I’ll al low the juices of the grapes to stand until they rot, and I’ll call the process fermen tation.” And there was a great vat pre pared, and people came with their cups and their pitchers, and they dipped up the blood of tho grapes, and they drank and drank and went away drinking, and they drank until they fell in long lines of death, , so that when the fiend of tho vineyard wanted to return to his homo in the pit he stepped from carcass to carcass and walk ed down amid a great causeway of the * dead. Then the second fiend came into tho graintleld. He waded chin deep amid tho , barley and tho rye. Ho heard all tho I grain talking about bread and prosperous , husbandry and thrifty homes. Hu thrust his long arms into the grainfield, and he [lulled up the grain and threw It into tho water, and he made Ix-neath it great fires j —fires lighted with a spark from his own heart —and there was a grinding and a mashing and a stench, and tho people came w ith their Ixittlos, and they dipped up the fiery liquid and they drank, and they ■ blasphemed, and they staggered, and they fought, and they rioted, and they murder ed and the fiend of the jilt, tho fiend of 1 the grainfield, was so pleased with their ' liehavior that ho changed his residence from the pit to a whisky barrel, and there 1 he sat by tile door of the bunghole laugh ing in high merriment at the thought that out -if anything so harmless as the grain ' of the field ho might turn this world into i a o uming pandemonium. The I’leud of the Dairy. The fiend of tho dairy saw the cows ( ining home ft' m the pasture field full ( iiddered. and as the maid milked he said: , ill soon spoil all that mess. 11l add to , It brandy, sugar ami nutmeg, qnd I'll stir , it Into a milk punch, and children w ill ( drink it, and some of the temperance peo- , pie will drink it. ami if I can do them no , more harm 1 11 give them a headache, and , then I’ll hand them over to the more vig orous fiends of the satanfo delegation." j And then tho fiend of the dairy leaped . ■ o ■' ■ ' ■ . ■ I :■ wof h b in Ing mi! k pans a 1 most 'iva’ic-d. ' The fiend of the music entered a grog- j shop, and there were but few customers. , Eluding few customers, he swept the cir- ( unit of tho city, and he gathered up tho , musical Instruments, and after nightfall , he marshaled a band, and the trombones , I blew, and the cymbals clapped, and the drums beat, and the bugles called, and the , people crowded in, and they swung around , in merry dance, each one with a wine- ( glass in his hand, and the dance became , wilder and stronger and rougher until t the room shook, and tho glasses cracked, , and the floor broke, and tho crowd drop- < ped into hell. ( Then the four flends—the fiend of the t vineyard and of the grainfleld and of the < kb dairy and of the music hall—went back , to their home, and they held high carnival ( because their work had been so well done, , and satan rose from his throne and an- , nounced that there was no danger of the t earth’s redemption so long as these four j fiends could pay such tax to the diabolic. . And then all the demons and all the ’ fiends filled their glasses and clicked them , and cried: "Let us drink—drink to the , everlasting prosperity of the liquor traffic. | Here’s to woe and darkness and murder , and death! Drink! Drink!” But, whether by allegory or by appalling ‘ statistics this subject is presented, you . know as well as I that it is impossible to pxaggcrate the evils of strong drink. A . plague! A. plague! In the first place, the j inebriate suffers from tho loss of a good name. God has so arranged it that no , man loses his reputation except by his j 1“' own act. The world may assault a man , and all the powers of darkness may as sault him—they cannot capture him so long as his heart is pure and his life is ] pure. All the powers of earth and hell can- , not take that Gibraltar. If a man is right, ( all the bombardment of the world for 5, i 10, 20, 40 years will only strengthen him , in hKpositlon. So that all you have to , do is to keep yourself right. Never mind . the world. Let it say what it will. It can 1 do you no damage. But as soon as it is , whispered, “Ho drinks,” and it can lx? , proved, he begins to go down. What clerk , can get a position with such a reputation? ( IVhat store wants him? What church of God wants him for a member? What dy ing man wants him for an executor? “lie di inks. 1 stand bob ire hundreds of young men and I say it m t in flattery—splen did young mi n, who have their reputation a- their on'y capital. Your father gave you a good education or as gixxl an educa tion as he could afford to give you. Ho started you in city life. He could furnish you no means, but he has surrounded you with Christian influences and a good memory of the past. Now. young man, under God you are with your own right arm to achieve your fortune, and as your reputation is your only capital do not bring upon it suspicion by going in and out of liquor establishments or by an odor of your breath or l>y any glare of your eye or by any unnatural flush on your cheeks. You lose your reputation and you lose your capital. The Lonn of Self Henpect. The inebriate suffers also in the fact that he loses his self respect, and when you destroy a man’s self respect there is not much left of him. Then a man will do things he would not do otherwise, ho will say things he would not say other wise. 'The fact is, that man cannot stop, or he would stop now. He is bound hand and foot by the. Philistines, and they have shorn his locks and put his eyes out and made him grind in tho mill of a grqat hor ror. After he is three-fourths gone in this slavery, the first thing ho will lie anxious to impress you with is that he can stop at any time he wants to. His family become alarmed in regard to him, and they say: “Now do stop this. After awhile it will get the mastery of you.” “Oh, no,” ho says, “ I can stop at any time. I can stop now, I can stop tomorrow.” His most confidential friends say: “Why, I’m afraid you are losing your balance with that habit. You are going a little further than you can afford to go. You had better stop. ’ “Oh, n>," he says, “I can stop at any time. 1 can stop now.” Ho goes on further and further. He cannot stop. I will prove it. He loves himself, and he knows nevertheless that strong drink is depleting him in body, mind and soul. He knows he is going down, that ho has less self control, less equipoise of temper than he used to. Why does he not stop? Because he cannot stop. I will prove it by going still further. He loves his wife and children. lie sees that his habits are bringing disgrace upon his home. The probabilities are they will ruin his wife and disgrace his children. He secs all this, and he loves them. Why does he not stop? He cannot stop. I had a very dear friend, generous to a fault. Ho had given thousands and tens of thousands of dollars to Bible societies, tract societies, missionary societies, asy lums for the poor, the halt, the lame, the blind, the, imbecile. I do not believe for 20 years anybody asked him for $1 or SSO or SIOO for charity but he gave it. I never heard of anybody asking him for help but he gave it. But he was under the power of strong drink, and ho went on down, down, down. His family implored him, saying, “You are going too far in that habit; you had better stop.” He replied: “I can stop any time; I am my own mas ter. I can stop." Ho went on down, down. His friends advised and cautioned him. He said: “Don't bo afraid of mo. I am my own master; I can stop now; I know what I am doing." He went on down until he had the delirium tremens. Ou down until he had the delirium tre mens twice. After the second time the doc tor said: “If you ever have an attack like this again, you will die. You had better stop.” He said, “I can stop any time: I can stop now." He went on down. He is dead. What slew him? Bum, rum! Among the last tilings he said was that he could stop any time. Hu could not st< q>. V Warning to the Toting. Oh. my young friends, I want to tell you that- there Is a point in inebriation beyond which if a man go he cannot stop. But sometimes a man will be more frank than that. A victim of strong drink said to a reformer: “It is impossible for me to stop; I realize it. But, if you should tell me I couldn’t have a drink until tomor row night unless I had all my fingers cut off, I would say, ‘Bring the hatchet and cut them off.’ ” I had a very dear friend in Philadelphia whoso nephew came to him and was talking about his trouble and confessed it. He confessed he could not s:,My friend said, “You must stop.” He said: “I can’t stop. If there stood a cannon, and it was loaded, and there was a glass of wine on the mouth of the cannon, and 1 knew you would tiro it off if 1 approached, I would start to get that glass of wine. I must have it. I can’t get rid of this habit. I can’t get away from it." Oh. it is awful for a man to wake up and feel that he js a captive. I hear him soliloquizing, saying: “I might have stopped three months ago, but I can’t stop now. Dead, but not buried. I tion of what I once was. I am a caged immortal, and my soul beats against tho wires of my cage on this side and beats against the wires of my cage oh the other side until there is blood on tho wires and blood on the soul, but I can't get out. De stroyed without remedy'” Again, the man suffers from the loss of usefulness. Do you know some of tho men who have fallen into the ditch were once in the front rank in churches and in the front rank in reformatory institu tions? Do you know they once knelt at the family altar and once carried the chal ice of tlie holy communion on sacramental days? Do you know they once stood in the pulpit and preached the gospel of the Son of God? We will not forget the scene witnessed some years ago in my Brooklyn church when a man rose in the midst of tho audience, stepped into the aisle and walked up and down. Everybody saw that lie was intoxicated. The ushers led him out. and his poor wife took his hat and overcoat and followed him to the door. Who was he? Ho had once been a mighty minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ in a sister denomination, had often preached in this very city. What slew him? Strong drink ' Oh, what must be the feeling of a man who has destroyed his capacity for usefulness? Do not be angry with that man. Do not lose your patience with him. Do not wonder if he says strange things and gets irritated easily in the family. He has the Pyrenees and the Andes and the Alps on him. Do not try to persuade him that these is no future punishment. Do not go into any argument to prove to him that there is no hell. He knows there Is. He is there now! But he suffers also in the loss of physical health. The older people in this audience can remember Dr. Sewell going through this country electrifying great audiences by demonstrating to them the effect of strong drink upon the human stomach. I am told he hail eight or ten diagrams which he presented to the people, showing the different stages in the progress of the disease, and I am told tens of thousands of people turned back from that ulcerous sketch and swore eternal abstinence from all intoxicants. Gul only knows what th.i drunkaid suffer- Pain lilr-s on every nerve and travel- ■ ■■ mnsde and gnaws on every Ixine and si i.. with every [xiison ami [mils with t. tore. What rep tilescrawl over Ins Bering limbs! What specters stand by hi- midnight pillows! What groans tear th. air! Talk of the rack, talk of the film ral pyre, talk of the Juggernaut He suffers them all at once. The I nvhriii :<•’* Dentil. See the attendants stand ha k from that Ward in the hospital win re the inebriates are dying. They cannot stand it. The keepers come through it ami say: • Hush up now! Stop making rids noise! Be still! You are disturbing all the other patients. Keep still now." Then the keepers pass on, and after they get past then the poor creatures wring their bands and say: ‘Oil, God! Help, help! Give me rum, give me rum ! Oh, God! Help! Take the devils off of me! Oh, God; oh. God!” And they shriek, and they blas pheme, and they cry for help, and then they ask the keepers t" slay tiiem. saying: “Stall me, strangle me. smother me. Oil, God! Help, help! Bum! Give me rum! Oil, God I lift;)"' They tear out their hair by the handful, and they bite their nails into the quick. This is no fancy pic ture. It is transpiring in a hospital ij tliis moment. It went on last night while you slept, and, more than that, that, is the death some of you will die unless you stop. I see it coming. God help you to stop lie fore you go so far that you cannot stop. But it plagues a man also in the loss of home. Ido not care how much he loves his wife and children, if this habit gets the mastery over him ho will do the most outrageous things. If need be. in order to get strong drink he would sell them all into everlasting captivity. There are hun dreds and thousands of homes that have been utterly blasted of it. Ia: i speaking of no alistraction. Is then 1 anything so disastrous to a man for th!; Ji.’.. and for the life to come? Do you tell mo that a man can be happy when ho knows he is breaking his wife's heart and clothing his children with rags? There are little chil dren in the streets today barefooted, un kempt, uncombed, want written on every pat- h l if th’ ’r fad' d div-s and ,>n every wrinkle of tliiTr prematurely old counte nance, who would have been in the house of God this morning as well clad as you had it not been that strong drink drove their parents down into penury and then down into the grave. Oh, rum, rum, thou despoiler of homes, thou foe of God, thou recruiting officer of tho pit, I hate thee I But my subject takes a deeper tone when it tells you that the inebriate suffers the loss of tlie soul. The BilJe intimates that if we go into tlie future world unfor given tho appetites and passions which were regnant here will torment us there. I suppose when the inebriate wakes up in the lost world there will be an infinite thrist clawing upon him. In this world he could get strong drink. However poor he was in this world, ho could beg or he could steal cents to get: a drink that would for a little while slake his thirst, but in eternity where will the rum come from? Dives wanted one drop of water, but: could not get. it. Where will the ine briate get tho draft he so much requires, so much demands? No one to brew it. No one to mix it. No one to pour it. No one to fetch it. Millions of worlds now for the dregs that were thrown on the sawdusted floor of the restaurant. Mil lions of worlds now for the rind flung out. from the punch howl of an earthly ban quet. Dives called for water. The inc briate calls for rum. It Bitetli I.ike a Serpent. If a fiend from the lost world should come up on a mission to a grogshop and, having finished tlie mission in tho grog shop. should come back, taking on the tip of his wing one drop of alcoholic, bever age. what excitement, it would make all through the world of tlie lost, and. if that one drop of alcoholic beverage should drop from the wing of the fiend upon the tongue of the inebriate, how he would spring up and cry: “That'sit! That's it! Rum! Rum! That’sit!'' And all the caverns of the lost would echo with the cry: “Give it tome! Rum! Rum'" Ah, my friends, the inebriate’s sorrow in tlie next world will not bo the absence of God or holiness or light. It will be the ab sence of rum. “Look not upon the wino when it is red. when it moveth itself aright in the cup for at the last, it biteth like a s. rpint, and it stingeth like an adder." When I see this plague in tho bind and when 1 see this destroying angel sweeping across our great cities I uni sometimes indignant mul sometimes humiliated. When a man asks me, “What are you in favor of for tlie subjugation of this evil. ’’ I answer, “I am ready tor anything that is reasonable." You ask me, “Are you in favorof Sonsof Temperance?” Yes. “Are you in favor of good Samaritans?" Yes. “Are you in favor of Good Templars?" Yes. “Are yon in favor of prohibitory lav. ” Y< - “ \re you in favor of tlie pledge' ' Yes. Combine all the influ ences. O Christian reformers and philan thropists! Combine tiiem all for the ex tirpation of this evil. Thirty women in one of tho western states banded together, and withanespe ciai ordination from God they went forth to the work and shut up all the grogshops of a large village. 1 liiny women, with their song and with their prayer. And if 1,000 or “.non Christian men and women with an esjieelnl ordination from God should go forth feeling the responsibility of their work and discharging their mis sion they could in any city shut up all the grogshops. But 1 must not dwell on generalities. I must come to speeifi, s. Are you astray? If there is any sermon I dislike, it is a sermon on generalities. I want jxirHonali t.ies. Are you astray? Have you gone so far you think you cannot get back? Did I say a few moments ago that a man might go to a point in inebriation where he could not stop? Yes, I said it, and I reiterate it. But I want yon also to understand that, while the man himself of his own strength cannot stop, God can stop any man. You have only to lay hold of the strong arm of the Lord God Almighty. He can stop you. Many summers ago I went over to Xew York one Sabbath even ing. our church not yet being open fi r theautumnal services. I went intoaroom in the Fourth ward, New York', where a religious service was being held for re formed drunkards, mid I heard a revela tion that night that I had never heard be for( >_[j or “t> men standing up and giv ing testimony such as 1 had never heard given. They not only testified that their heartshad been changed by the grace of God, but that the grace of God had extin guished their thirst. They went on to say that, they had reformed at different times before, but immediately fallen because they were d'fing tlie wiiole work in their own streiutth. ' But as soon as wo gave our bear’s to God. liny said, “anil the love of t le i.< rd J. - : Christ ha.- come ha'o i moi di' ■ I "si: dr.n,. It " an and I , have proclaimed it again a: d again tn tho i hearing of those who ha. fir gone astray, and I stand here today to i '1 you that tho grace of tho Lord J--us I nrist cannot only save your s.ml, but save your body. 1 look off today upon the desolation. Some , of you are so far on in this habit, although there may be no outward indications of it —you never have staggered along tho street—the vast majority of people do not know that you stimulate, but God knows, and you know, and by human calculation there is not one chance out of five thou sand that you will ever lie stopped. Be ware! There are .some of you who are my warm personal friends to whom I must say that, unless you quit, this evil habit, within ten years as to your body, you will lie down in a drunkard s grave and, as to you immortal soul, you will lie down in a drunkard s hell' It is a hard thing to say, but it is true, and I utter tho warn ing lest I have your blood upon my soul Beware! As today you open the door o your wino closet let tho decanter flash that Word upon > .ur s ul, “Beware!" As you pour out tho bevern re let tho foam at the top spell out the word, ''Beware'" In the great day of God’s judgment, when a hundred million drunkards shall come up to get their doom.

Oh, if you could only hear intemperance with drunkards' bones drumming on the top of the wine cask the “Dead March" of immortal souls, you would go home and kneel down and pray God that rather ' than your children should ever become ! the victims of this evil habit you might ; carry them out to the cemetery and put ! them down in the last slumber, waiting ■ for tlie flowers of spring to come over tho grave—sweet prophecies of tho resurrec I tion.
