Nothing can be learned from Governor Mount Attorney Ketch-am concerning the matter of bringing to Justice the members of the Ripley county mob that lynched five men at Versailles recently.

TALMAGE ON GOD IN NATURE. TJlo Orchards of Adam, of Solomon, ol PUato and of St. The Pomology of the Bible The Country the City. 1897, by American Press WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.

Dr. Talmage finds the divine hand in all the dominions of the natural world, and this sermon presents religion in its most radiant attractiveness. The text is Genesis 11, "The fmit tree yielding fruit after his kind." It is Wednesday morning in paradise. The birds did not sing their opening piece, nor the fish take their first swim until the following Friday. The solar and lunar lights did not break through the thick, chaotic fog of the world's manufacture until Thursday.

Before that there was light, but it was electric light or phosphorescent light, not the light of sun or moon. But the botanical and pomological productions came on Wednesday first the flowers and then the fruits. The veil of fog is lifted, and there stand the orchards. Watch the sudden maturity of the fruit. In our time pear trees must have trwo years before they bear fruit, and peach trees three years, and apple trees five years, but here instantly a complete orchard springs into life, all the branches bearing fruit.

The insectile forces, which have been doing their worst to destroy the fruits for 6, 000 years, had not yet begun their invasion. The curcnlio had not yet fitting the plum, nor the caterpillar hurt the apple, nor had the phyl- loxera plagne, which has devastated the vineyards, of America and France, assailed the grapes, nor the borer perforated the wood, nor the aphides ruined the cherry, nor the grub punctured the nectarine. nor the blight struck the pear. There stood the first orchard, with a perfection of rind, and an exqnisiteness of color, and a lusciousness of taste and an affluence of production which it may take thousands of years more of study of the science of fruits to reproduce. The Why was the orchard created two days before the fish and birds and three days before the cattle? Among other things, to impress the world with a lesson it is too stupid to learn that fruit diet is healthier than meat diet, and that the former must precede the latter.

The reason there are in the world so many of the imbruted and sensual is that they have not improved by the mighty, unnoticed fact that the orchards of paradise preceded the herds and aviaries and fish ponds. Oh, those fruit bearing trees on the banks of the Euphrates and the Gihon and the Hid- dekel I wonder not that the ancient ignorant of our God, adored Pomona, the goddess of fruits, and that all the sylvan deities were said to her, and that groves were set apart as her temples. You have thanked God for bread a thousand times. Have you thanked him for the fruits which he made the first course of food in the menu of the world's table? The acids of those fruits to keep the world's table from being insipid, and their sweets to keep it from being too sour? At this autumnal season how tho orchards breathe and glow, the leaves removed, that the crimson, or pink, or saffron, or the yellow, or brown may the better appear, while the aromatics fill the air with invitation and reminiscence. As you pass through the orchard on these autumnal days and look up through the arms of the trees laden with fruit you hear thumping on the ground that which is fully ripe, and, throwing your arms around the trunk, you give a shake that sends down a shower of gold and fire on all sides of you.

Pile up in baskets and barrels and bins and on shelves and tables the divine supply. But these orchards have been under the assault of at least 60 centuries the storm, the droughts, the winters, the insectivora. What must the first orchard have been? And yet it is the explorer's evidence that on the site of that orchard there is not an -apricot, or an apple, or an nothing but desert and desolation. There is not enough to forage the explorer's horse, much less to feed his own hunger. In other words, that first orchard is a lost orchard.

How did the proprietor and the proprietress of all that intercolumniation of fruitage let the rich splendor slip their possession? It was as now most of the orchards are lost namely, by wanting more. Access they had to all the fig trees, apricots, walnuts, almonds, apples bushels on bushels and were forbidden the use of only one tree in the orchard. Not satisfied with all but one, they reached for that and lost the whole orchard. Go right down through the business marts of the great cities and find among the weighers and clerks and subordinates men who once commanded the commercial world. They had a whole orchard of successes, but they wanted.

just one more thing one more house or one more country seat or one more store or one more railroad or one more mil lion. They clutched for that and lost all they had gained. For one more tree they lost a whole orchard. There are business men all around us worried nearly to death. The doctor tells them thej' ought to stop.

Insomnia or indigestion or aching at the base of the brain or ungovernable nerves tell chem they ought to stop. They really have enough for themselves and their families. Talk with them about their overwork and urge more prudence and longer rest, and they say "Yes, yon are right. After I have accomplished one more thing that I have on my mind I will hand over my business to my sous and go to Europe and quit the kind of exhausting life I have been living for the last SO years. Sana morning you open your paper, and, looking at the death column, yon find he nddanlj departed thii life.

In trying to win just one more tree, he lost the whole orchard. Forbidden Fruit. Yonder is a man with many styles ol innocent entertainment and amusement. He walks, he rides, he plays tenpins in private alleys, he has books on his table, pictures on his wall and occasional outings, concerts, lectures, baseball tickets and the innumerable delights of friendship, but he wants a key to the place of dissolute convocation. He wants association with some member of a high family as reckless as he is affluent.

He instead of a quiet Sabbath, one of carousal. He wants the stimulus of strong drinks. He wants the permissions of a profligate life. The one membership, the one bad habit, the onu ca- rousaJ, robs him of all the possibilities and innocent enjoyments and noble inspirations of a lifetime. By one mouthful of forbidden fruit he loses a whole orchard of fruit nnforbiddeu.

Yon see what an expensive thing is sin. It costs 1,000 times more than it is worth. As some of all kinds of quadrupeds and all kinds of winged creatures passed before our progenitor that he might announce a name, from eagle to bat, and from lion to ruole, so I suppose there were in paradise specimens of every kind of fruit tree. And in that enormous orchard there was not only enough for the original family of two, but enough fruit fell ripe to the ground and was never picked up to supply whole towns and villages if they had existed. But the infatuated couple turned away from all these other trees and faced this tree, and fruit of that they will have though it cost them all paradise.

This story of Eden is rejected by some as an improbability if not an impossibility, but nothing on earth is easier for me to believe than the truth of this Edenic story, for I have seen the same thing in this year of our Lord 1897. I could call them by name, if it were politic and righteous to do so, the men who have sacrificed a paradise on earth and a paradise in heaven for one sin. Their bouse went. Their library went. Their good name went.

Their field of usefulness went. Their health went. Their immortal soul went. My friends, there is just one sin that will turn you out of paradise if yon do not quit it. You know what it is, and God knows, and you had better drop the hand and arm lifted toward that bending bough before yon pluck your own ruin.

When Adam stood on tiptoe and took in his right hand that one round peach or apricot or apple, satan reached up and pulled down the round, beautiful world of our present residence. Overworked artist, overwrought merchant, ambitious politician, avaricious speculator, better take that warning from Adam's orchard and stop before you put out for that one thing more. Solomon's Orchard. But I turn from Adam's orchard to Solomon's orchard. With his own hand he writes, "I made me gardens and orchards." Not depending on the natural fall of rain, he irrigated those orchards.

Pieces ol the aqueduct that watered those gardens I have seen, and the reservoirs are as perfect as when thousands of years ago the mason's trowel smoothed the mortar over their surfaces. No orchard of olden or modern time probably ever had its thirst so well slaked. The largest of these reservoirs is 582 feet long, 207 feet wide and 50 feet deep. These reservoirs Solomon refers to when he says, "I made me pools of water, to water therewith the wood that bringeth forth trees." Solomon used to ride out to that orchard before breakfast. It gave him an appetite and something to think about all the day.

Josephus, the historian, represents him as going out "early in the morning from Jerusalem to the famed rocks of Etam, a fertile region, delightful with paradises and running springs. Thither the king, in robes of white, rode in his chariot, escorted by a troop of mounted archers chosen for their youth and stature and clad in Tyrian purple, whose long hair, powdered with gold dust, sparkled in the After Solomon had taken his morning ride in these luxuriant orchards he would sit down and write those wonderful things in the Bible, drawing his illustrations from the fruits he had that very morning plucked or ridden under. And, wishing to praise the coming Christ, be says, "As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved." And wishing to describe the love of the church for her Lord he writes, "Comfort me with apples, for I am sick of love," and desiring to make reference to the white hair of the octogenarian, and just before having noticed that the blossoms of the almond tree were white, ho says of the aged man, "The almond tree shall flourish." The walnuts and the pomegranates and the mandrakes and the figs make Solomon's writings a divinely arranged fruit basket. The Luxury ot Kelision. What mean Solomon's orchards and Solomon's gardens, for they seem to mingle, the two into one, flowers under foot and pomegranates over head? To me they suggest that religion is a 1ns- ury.

All along the world has looked upon religion chiefly as a dire a lifeboat from the shipwreck, a ladder from the conflagration, a soft landing place after we have been shoved off the precipice of this planet As a consequence so many have said, "We will await preparation for the future until the crash of the shipwreck, until the conflagration is in full blaze, until we reach the brink of the No doubt religion is inexpressibly important for the last exigency. But what do the apples, and the figs, and the melons, and the pomegranates, and the citron, and the olives of Solomon's orchard mean? Luxury. They mean that our religion is the luscious, the aromatic, the pungent, the arborescent, the efflorescent, the foliaged, the They mean what Edward Payson meant when he declared, "If my happiness to increase, I cannot support it much longer."
