WasniNOToy, D. O.—This discourse of Dr.
Taimnge is a sermon of preparation for the
national obsorvnnce aud in an unusual way
nails for tho gratitude of tho people; tho
text, Ezekiel x., 13, “As for the wheels, it
was cried unto them ln My hearing, O
wheel!”
The last Thursday of tho oloventh month,
by proclamation of President and Govor-
nors, is observed in thanksgiving for
temporal mercies. With what spirit shall
we enter upon it? For noarly a year and a
half this nation has been celebrating the
triumph of the sword and gun aud bat¬
tery. We have sung martial airs and
cheered returning heroes nnd sounded the
requiem for the slain in battle. Methinks
it will be a heaitbful change if this Thuuks-
giving week, in church and homestead, we
celebrate the victories of peace, for noth-
fag was done at Santiago or Manila that
was of more importance than that which
in the last year has been done in farmer’s
Held and mechanic’s shop nnd nutlior’s
study by those who never wore an epaulet
or shot a Spaniard or went a hundred
miles from thoir own doorsill. And now
I call your attention to the wheel of the
text.
Man, a small speck in tho universe, was
set down in a big world, high mountains
rising before him, deep seas arre-ttng his
pathway and wild beasts capable of his
destruction, yet ho was to conquer. It
could not be by physical foroo, for and com¬ tho
pare his arm with the ox’s horn
elephant’s tusk, and how weak he isl It
could not bo by physical speed, for com¬
pare him to the antelope’s toot and ptar¬
migan's wing, and how slow he is! It
DOtild not bo by physical capacity to soar
or plunge, for the condor beats him in one
direction and the porpoise in tho other.
Yet he was to conquer the world. Two
eyes, two hands and two feet were insuffl-
clent. He must be re-euforced, so God
sent the wheel.
Twenty-two times is the wheel men-
tioned in the Bible, sometimes, as ln
Ezekiel, illustrating providential move-
meat; sometimes, as ln the Psalms, crush¬
ing the bad; sometimes, as iu Judges, rep¬
resenting God’s charioted progress. The
wboel that storied in Exodus rolls on
through Proverbs, through Isaiah, through
Jeremiah, through Daniel,through Nahum,
through the centuries, all tho time gather¬
ing momentum and splendor, world’s until, seeing
what it has done for the progress
and happiness, we clap our hands in thauks-
giving and employ the apostrophe of the
toxt, crying, "O wheel!”
I call on you in this Thanksgiving week
to praise God for the triumphs of machin¬
ery, which have revolutionized the world
and multiplied Its attractions. Even para¬
dise, though very picturesque, must have
been comparatively dull, hardly anything
going on, no agriculture needed, for the
harvest was spontaneous; no architecture
required, for they slept under the trees; no
manufacturor’s loom necessary for the
weaving of apparel, for the fashions wore
exceedingly simple. To dress the garden
could not have required ten minutes a day.
Having nothing to do, they got into mis¬
chief and ruined themselves and the race.
It was a sad thing to be turned out of par-
adise, but, once turned out, a beneficent
thing to be compelled to work. To help
man up and on God sent the wheel. If
turned ahead, the race advances; if turned
back, the race retreats. To arouse your
gratitude and exalt your praise I would
show you what tho wheel has done for the
domestic world forthe agricultural world,
lor the traveling world, for the literary
world. "As for the wheels, it was cried
unto them iu my hearing, O wheel!”
In domestic life the wheel has wrought
revolution. Behold the sewing machine! It
has shattered the housewife’s bondage and
prolonged woman’s life and added immeas¬
urable advantages. The needle for ages
had punctured the eyes and pierced the
side and made terrible massacre. Te pro-
pare tho garments of the whole household
in the spring for summer and iu the au¬
tumn for winter was an exbnusting pro¬
cess. “Stitch, stitch, stitch!” Thomas
Hood set it to poetry, but millions of per¬
sons have found it agonizing prose.
Slain by the sword, we buried the hero
with the "Dead March”in“Saui” and flags
at half mast. Slain by the needle, no one
knew it but the household that watched
ber health giving way. Tho winter after
that the children were ragged and cold
aud hungry or in the almshouse. The hand
that wielded the needle had forgotten its
cunning. Soul and body had parted .from at the the
sehm. The thimble had dropped
palsied Anger. The thread of life had
snapped nnd let a suffering human life
drop into the grave. The spool was all un¬
wound. Her sepulcher was digged not
with sexton’s spade, but with a sharper and
chorter implement—aneodle. ornamented Federal and
Confederate dead have graves
at Arlington Heights and Richmond and
Gettysburg, thousands by thousands, but
it will take the archangel’s trumpet to find
the million graves of the vaster army of
women needle slain.
Besides nil the sewingdone forlthe house¬
hold at home, there are hundreds of thou¬
sands of sewing women. The tragedy of
thoneedlels the tragedy of hunger and
cold and iusult and home-slojcuess and sui¬
cide—flvo nets.
But I hear the rush of a wheel, woman
puts on the band and adjusts the instru¬
ment, puts her foot on the treadle and be¬
gins. Before the whir and rattle pleurisies,
consumptions, headaches, backaches,
heartaches, are routed. The needle, once
an oppressive tyrant, becomes a cheerful
slave—roll and rumble and roar until the
family wardrobe is gathered, and winter fs
defied, and summer is welcomed, and the
ardors aud severities of the seasons are
overcome; winding the bobbing, threading
the shuttle, tucking, quilting, ruffling,
cording, embroidering, under-braiding set
to music; lock stitch, twisted loop stitoh,
crocket stitch, a fascinating ingenuity.
No wonder that at some of the learned
Institutions, like the New Jersey State
Normal school, ami Rutgers Female insti¬
tute, and Elmira Female college, acquaint¬
ance with tho sewing machine is a requisi¬
tion, u young indy not being considered
educated until she understands it. Winter
is coming on, and the household must be
warmly clad. “The Last Rose of Summer”
will sound better played on a sewing ma¬
chine than on a piano. Roll on, O wheel
of the sewing machine, until the last
shackled woman of toll shall be emanci¬
pated! Roll on!
Secondly, I look into the agricultural
world to see what the wheel has accom¬
plished. Look at the stalks of wheat and
Oats, the one bread for man, the other
bread for horses. Coat off and with a
cradle made out of flvo or six Angers of
wood nnd one of sharp steel, the harvester
wont across tho field, stroke after stroke,
perspiration rolling down forehead and
cheek and chest, head blistered by the con¬
suming sun and lip parched workmen by the merci¬
less August air-, at noon the lying
hall lead under the trees. One of my most
palm ’1 boyhood memories is that of my
fathek iu harvest time reeling from ex¬
haustion over the doorstep, too tired to
eat, pate and fainting as he sat down. The
grain brought to the barn, the sheaves
were unbound pnd spread on a threshing
floor, and two men with flails stood oppo¬
site each other, hour after hour and day
after day, pounding thr wheat oat of the
stalk. Two strokes, and then a cessation
of sound. Thump, thump, thump, thump,
thump, tli mpl Pounded os«e and then
turned over' to be pounded cackled again, aad clucked slew,
very sJow. The hens
by the door and picked up the loose Brains
and the serges half asleep aud dozing over
tlsc mangers whore the huy had been.
Can yon Imagine anything more beautl-
ful than the sea Island cotton? I take up
the unmolted snow In my haud. Howheau-
tiful It Is! But do you know by what pains-
taking and tedious toil it passed examined Into any¬
thing that like practicality? It you full seeds.
cotton, you would find it of
It was a severe process by which the seed
was to bo extracted from the liber. Vast
populations were leaving the South be¬
cause they could not make any living out
of tills product. Ono pound of green seed
cotton was all that a man could propurem
one day, but Ell Whitney, a Massachusetts
Yankee, woke up, got a handful of cotton
and went to constructing a wheel for the
pnrting of the liber and the seed.
Teeth on oyllnders, brushes on cylinders,
wheels on wheels. South Carolina gave
him $50,030 for Ills Invention, and, Instead
of ono man taking a whole day to prepare
a pound of cotton for the market, now he
may prepare three hundredwolght, andtho
Siouth Is enriched, and the commerce of
the world Is revolutionized, and over 8,.
000,000 bales ot cotton wero prepared this this
year, enough to keep at woric iu coun¬
try 14,300,000 spindles, employing 270,000
hands and enlisting $ 281 , 400,000 of capital.
Thank you, Ell Whitney, aud I,. S. Chi-
obester, of New York, his successor. Above
all, thank God for their inventivo genius,
that has done so much for the prosperity
of the world.
Thirdly, I look to see what the wheel has
done for the traveling world. No one can
tell how many noble and self sacrificing
Inventors have been crushed between the
conch wheel and the modern locomotive,
between the paddle and the ocean steamer.
I will not enter Into the controversy as
to whether John Fitch or ltobert Fulton
or Thomas Somerset was the Inven¬
tor of the steamboat. They all suf¬
fered and wero martyrs of the wheel, and
they shall he honored. John Fitch wrote:
“The 21st ot January, 1743, was the fatal
time of bringing me Into existence. I know
of nothing so perplexing and vexatious and to
a man of feeling as a turbulent wife
steamboat building. I experienced the
former aud quit in season, and had I been
in my right sensos I should undoubtedly
have treated the latter iu the same man¬
ner; but, for one man to be teased with
both, he must be looked upon as the most
unfortunato man in the world.”
See the train move out of one of our
great depots for a thousand-mile jour¬
ney! All aboard! Tickets clipped and
baggage cheoked and porters attentive to
every want, under tunnels dripping with
dampness that never saw the light; along
ledges whore an inch oft the track would
he the difference between a hundred men
living aud a hundred dead, full head of
steam and two men in the locomotive
charged with all the responsibility ot
whistle and Westinghouse broke. Clankl
clankl go the wheels. Clankl clank! echo
the rocks. Small villages only hear the
thunder and see the whirlwind us the train
shoots past, a city on the wing. Thrilling,
startling, sublime, magnificent spectacle—
a rail train iu lightning procession.
While the world has been rolling on the
eight wheels of the rail car or the four
wheels of the oarriage or the two wheels
of tho gig it was not until 1870, at the Cen¬
tennial Exposition at Philadelphia that
the miracle of the nineteenth century
rolled in—the bicycle.
The world could not believe its own eyes,
and not until quite far on iu the eighties
were tho continents enchanted with the
whirling, flashing, dominating spectacle of
a machine that was to do so much for the
pleasure, the business, the health aud the
profit of nations. The world had needed It
for G,000 years.
Fourthly, I look into the literary world
and see what the wheel lias accomplished.
I am more astounded with this than any¬
thing that lias preceded.' Behold the al¬
most miraculous printing press! Do you
not feel the ground shake with the ma¬
chinery of the New York,Brooklyn, Boston,
Philadelphia, Washington, and Western
dailies? Borne of us remember when the
hand ink roller was run over the cylinder,
and by great hasto 800 copies of the village
newspaper were issued In ono day and no
lives lost. But invention has crowded in¬
vention and wheel jostled wheel, stereo¬
typing, olectrotyplng, taking their places,
Benjamin Franklin’s press giving way Wash¬ to
the Lord Stanhope press, and the
ington press and the Victory press aud the
Hoe perfecting press have been set up.
Together with the newspapers comes the
publication of innumerable books of his¬
tory, of poetry, of romance, of art, of
travel, of biography, of religion, diction¬
aries, encyclopedias and Bibles. Some of
these presses send forth the most accursed
stuff, but the good predominates. Turn
on with wider sweep and greater velocity,
O wheel—wheel ol light, wheel ot civiliza¬
tion, wheel of Christianity, wheel of divine
momentum!
On those four wheels—that of the sewing
muohlne, that of the reaper, that of the
railroad locomotive, that of the printing
press—the world has moved up to its pres¬
ent prosperity.
And now I gather on an imaginary plat¬
form, as I literally did when I preached ln
Brooklyn, specimens of our American
products.
Here Is corn from the West, a foretaste
ot the great harvest that is to come down
to our seaboard, enough for ourselves and
for foreign shipment. Here is rioe from
the South, never a more beautiful produot
grown on the planet, mingling the gold
and green.
Here are two sheaves, a sheaf of North¬
ern wheat aud a sheaf of Southern rice,
bound together. May the band never
brenkl Here Is cotton, the wealthiest
product of America. Here Is sugar caue,
enough to sweeten the beverages of an em¬
pire. Who would think that out of such a
humble stalk there would come such a
luscious product?
Here are palmetto trees that have ln
their pulses the warmth of southern climes.
Here is the cactus of the South, so beauti¬
ful and so tempting It must go armed,
Here are the products of American mines.
This Is iron, this is coal, the iron repre¬
senting a vast yield, our country sending
forth one year 800,000 tor.3 of it, the coal
representing 160,000 square miles of it, the
iron prying out the coal, the coal smelting
the iron.
This Is silver, silver from Colorado and
Nevada, those places able yet to yield
sliver napkin rings and sliver knives nnd
silver casters and stiver platters for all our
people.
Here is mioa from the quarries of New
Hampshire. How beautiful it looks in the
sunlight! Hero Is copper from Lake Su¬
perior, so heavy I dare not lift it. Here Is
gold from Virginia and Georgia. imaginary plat¬

AMERICAN BLUFF WON.
Yankee Tourist Didn’t Propose to Be Left Out
in the Cold.
"Here at home a bluff doesn't count
for much,” said a globe-trotter, “but
I’m teHing you that a good, stiff bluff,
with a cheeky American behind it, is
worth a lot of money in Europe. When
I got around to Nice last year the best
hotels were crowded, and I had to take
up with a small room. On the same
floor was a German who was occupy¬
_
ing a suite, though not spending much
money or putting on any great style.
One day there was a great row. The
landlord had asked him as a particular
favor to vabate for a newcomer and,
of course, the man didn't propose to be
turned out. The landlord coaxed and
argued, aud the German growled and
muttered, aud I followed them down
to the office to see how it would come
out. At the desk was an American I
had run across in Venice—a buyer for a
Chicago dry goods house. When the
landlord and the German began to gab¬
ble in chorus the buyer pulled a blank
check from his pocket and reached for
a pen and said:
“ ‘All this talk is of no use. I want
rooms here. I will buy the hotel and
select my suite. Sir, what is your cash
price for this hotel?’
“‘You would buy the hotel?” ex¬
claimed the landlord, as he threw up
lifs hands in surprise.
“ ‘Grounds and all, and I want it to¬
day. How much—a million—three or
four? And what name shall I fill ln
on the check?”
“Say, now,” laughed the tourist, “but
you ought to have seen that thing
work! The German had determined to
be ugly about It, but when he bumped
up against a man who had as soon pay
four millions as one for what he fan¬
cied he felt awed and humbled and
ready to quit The landlord figured
that to turn away such a Croesus
would ruin his house, and It wasn’t
half an hour before the bluffer was in¬
stalled in the suite and the German
was chucked into a dog hole on the top
floor. And that wasn’t all, mind you.
When they sent the buyer a bill based
on Ills supposed millions he got up and
threatened to buy up the town and
dtart six soap factories to running, and
they cut every item in two and begged
his pardon to boot. I don’t belieye that
chap had $1,000 to his name, but he
just walked over everything and every¬
body for two weeks, and it was current
gossip that he owned the whole of Chi¬
cago and a good share of St. Louis and
Cincinnati. Nothing but cold bluff,
which wouldn’t have taken him into .

but it was equal to a letter of credit for
$1,000,000 over there.”—Seattle Times.

GAMING EVIL IN ENGLAND.
The Betting Mania Has Permeated the Whole
National Lite.
••IH tny opinion,” _ _ said _ Gladstone. ,,
"there can be no words too strong for
denouncing suitably the abominable
practice of gambling.” A sweeping as-
section, truly, yet none who has stu-
died the subject can regard it as a
gree too sweeping.
To-day the xaming problem thrent-
ens England with a graver menace
than perhaps ever before. Never has
it so permeated the whole national life;
never has it stood so safely under the
protection of the law as it does to-day.
Kocent judicial decisions have given
professional gamesters freedom which
even ten years ago would have seemed
incredible.
In the early part of this century the
betting mania was confined within
comparatively limited circles; to-day
it burns like a fever in every vein of
the body politic. There is hardly a
class or a section of the community
that does not. week by week, almost
day by day, yield its tribute of ruiued
lives, of blasted honor, of broken repu¬
tations, of shattered homes to the
craze.
The foremost gentleman of the land
is the leading patron of the turf; mem

part in the committee of the Jockey
Club; more than one of our great
judges are noted for their regular .Th¬
ings. From the highest to the lowesl
it is much the same in every class.
There Is hardly a workroom or office
In which betting is not one of the twu
principal subjects of conversation.
In East End streets, London, you see
the ragged babies seated on the curb¬
stones, with their shoeless feet in the
muddy gutters, playing with toy cards
for farthing stakes. The older boys
amuse themselves with pitch and toss,
carefully delegating one of their party
as watchman, to proclaim the ap¬
proach of a policeman.
In the factories of the north and of
the midlands girls and women are the
most eager and enthusiastic gamblers.
The growth of the working woman
gambler is one of the saddest features
of all. A few weeks ago a woman was
arrested as a bookmaker. Every now
and then a case comes in the police
courts of a domestic servant who stolo
her master's money to “have a bit
her fancy.” Recently it was shown
in court tliat a woman had sold her
very clothes to gamble.
The gambling business is organized
as perhaps no other in this country is.
There are at least 10,000 bookmakers
live off it—parasites on our national
life. They have their touts inside or
outside of every workroom, who liter¬
ally force themselves on the young me¬
chanic or factory hanu. In Govern-
ment departments, such as Woolwich
arsenal, it has been found necessary
to take the most elaborate precautions
to stop the work of these touts, so pat¬
ent is the ruin they effect.—The Puri¬
The Power of Whistling,
“George, George, mind; your hat will
be blown off It you lean so far out of
the window!” exclaimed a fond father
to his little son, who was traveling
with him in a railway carriage. Quick¬
j ly snatching the hat from the head of
the refractory youngster, papa hid It
behind his back. “There, now, the hat
has gone!” he cried, pretending to be
angry. And George immediately set
up a howl. After a time the father re¬
marked: “Come, be quiet; if I whistle
your hat will come back again.” Then
he whistled, aud replaced the hat on
the boy’s head. “There, it's back
again, you see.” Afterward, while
papa was talking to mamma, a small,
shrill voice was heard saving: “Papa,
papa, I've thrown my hat out of the
window! Whistle again, will you?”—
