But Question Whelhe
Stand Behind the Me
NEWCNSTLE. Dec. 8. - in St.
James' Presbyterian church, Sunday
thur. of Prince Edward island, nd-
dressed a large audience on questions
pertaining to the wnr und' the elec-
tion. ~
Rev. Mr. Macarthur spoke i`rorn the
passage contained in St. Mark. x-35-
45_ which tells of James and John N
seeking from the Saviour the best
places in the earthly kingdom they
expected He would soon set up.-
Mr. Macarthur spoke with all his
heart and soul, and said in part us
follows: _
“The two men who wished to be re
spectively the Saviour's premier and
chancellor of the exchequer were driv-
en by the same malign spirit of
worldly ambition timt was soon to
cause the death of their Master unfi-
a nation soon to be wiped out! lf
Jesus had not been more than human
neither they' nor He would ever have
been heard of again. For the Jews
were hastening to their downfall.
*Anlother scene: Alexander the
Great wiping the blood off his sword
and weeping that there were no
worlds to conquerx' Before Alexand-
er’s time the Greeks fought over triv-
ial things unconscious of the danger
hanging over them. Listen to Dem-
osthones thundering against Phillip
and trying to rouse the -states of
Greece to uni-on. Imagine his bearers
shruggin-g /their slhoulldelrs and ext
claiming, there was nothing in to.
But soon Phillip's_ armies swept down
and Greece was Greece no more.
"Consider the chosen people of
God. They thought God would save
them whatever they did, and they
were dispersed abroad. _
“I was much exercised over. the
propriety oi’ taking up this question.
But I argued the matter out, and I
feel _it my bounden duty to speak out
“l want to read what Mr. White.

thousands of French and Belgium

to slavery, of the streams of broken,

plague and the children for luck of
nourishment.
