... Francis.
Hla other name is Muiphy. He
belongs to tbe Holy Catholic
Church, the Methodiat wing of it;
anil be baa been canonized in hia
lifetime by tlio bleaaiugs and the
prayers of thousands of tbe poor.
The other Saint Francia was
something of a acauip in early life.
Hla eacapadea are carefully narrat
ed by hla biographer* as a good
background for hla later aanctlty.
Finally he waa flogged and thrown
into prison for hia offenses; and
while In prison he was converted
and devoted himself to the service
of the poor.
Much of this is true of the mod
ern Saint Francis. He, too, found
Christ in priaen—(for the priaou ia
a place where men sometime* Hud
Christ in more senaea than one) —
and gave himself up toaßervioe
whose demands and whose rewards
he did not then at all forecast.
"Mediaeval Europe." aaya the
historian, "owes much to the Fran
eiscaus. They went everywhere,
and were like flamea of fire wher
ever they went. Firat of all they
roused the masses. Poor men,
wearing nothing but brown frocks
girded about the waist by bits of
rope, they brought thegoepel home
let the poor. By and by they made
themselves felt in every walk of
life." It begins to look as if mod
ern America were going to be a
large debtor to the new order of
Franciscans—to Murphy's men. If
"the masses'' of medieval Europe
were any more thoroughly rouaed
than the maaaea of aome of our
American citiea and towna have
been by the preaching of Murphy,
It must have been a sight to see
them.
It la to the poor that Francis
Murphy preaches—the poorest of
the poor—the men wbo have lost
manhood aud honor ami self-respect
in the bondage of strong drink.
And when be preaches they listen.
No doubt about that. Night after
night the largest bulla are crowded
to suffocation; hundreds stand for
hours, or cling to the edges of plat
forms and the railings of galleries,
listening to his proclamation of
liberty to the captives and tiie open
ing of the prison doors to thorn that
are bound.
He is a study—this man Murphy.
Get a seat on the platform if you
oan, where you cau watch his
movements. The great crowd, or
derly and cheery, is waiting for his
appearance. Suddenly there is a
brightening of faces and a clap
ping of hauds, aud Murphy walks
forward, bowing to the audience,
shaking hauds right aud left, aud
beaming on everybody. He is a
abort man, about as tall as Moody,
but not quite so stout, though his
cbest is full and his limbs are mus
cular. The face is Celtic aud shape
ly, the bright eyes look out from
uuder heavy eyebrow?, the clean
shaven jaw is firm, and the geuer
oua mouth is curtained by a black
moustache. A good-natured man,
beyond a doubt; and ou tho bun of
terms with his environment.
The service begins with singing.
The great choir lead iv two or three
of the "gospel melodies" of Bliss
and Sankey, the congregation join
ing iv the chorus; and there
are one or two sacred songs of a
- more pretentious character by sing
ers who go about with the apostles
of temperance to sing the gospel
after tbe manner of Sankey. Then
Murphy rises, Bible iv hand, aud
reada a few verses, commenting on
them in a homely, poiuted fashion.
His exegesis is sometimes queer,but
never mind that ! Bad exegesis
often yields good doctrine. If the
■acred writer does not say just what
tbe expounder represents him as
saying he might well have said it.
Then there is a short prayer, and
the orator naturally passes along
way* of familiar and informal talk
iuto the speech of the evening.
The story of his own life makes
up a good part of all his speeches.
If he stays only a day or two iv a
place you get an abridgment et it;
if he tarries longer he gives it to
you at length, in installments,
with more or less of discursive
moralizing and description and ap
peal thrown in evening by evening.
The story is well told. You would
not tell so much of it if you were
in bis place; but you do not feel,
after all, like ceusuriug his frank
ness. You can see in his experi
ence the depth of degradation and
woe into which drink pluuges men;
and be evidently thinks he has a
better right to show you the dark
side of his own life than that of
any other man's. Often as he has
toid the tale it is far from being a
mere recitation. His heart swells
with emotions that are not simu
lated, aud the tears start from bis
own eyes as he speaks of lbe woes
of "mother" and the children in
tbe days when drink was cursing
his home.
Now and then he strikes ofT into
digressions humorous, descriptive,
dramatic, —some of which are very
telling. The story of the Irish girl
who felt so grand riding in her mis
tress's carriage that she wished she
could stand on the sidewalk and see
herself drive by, is capitally told;
and always when he drops iuto bis
native brogue the Irishman that he
gives us is a genuine bit of charac
ter. Some of his more tragic pass
ages are simply tremendous. His
description of Sheridan's Bide, for
example, or his imaginative por
trayal of the "upas tree" of intem
perance, are astounding perform
ances. Such rhetoric, such elocu
tion, such acting are not often heard
nor seen. He races back and forth
across the ulatform; he roars like a
caged tiger; he leaps, at the climax
of bis passion, three or four feut iu
to the air.
Of course you do not approve all
this; it is not your way of doing it.
Neither do you approve all of Mur
phy's orthoepy or syntax. But it
does the business. Crude though
the performance may be, in spots,
it is a telling performance. The
acting Is immense, but it is scarce
ly more excessive than is often
•ecu upon the classic stage. The
rhetoric may be faulty, but it is a
big-hearted man that is talking;
and the people do not stop to meas
ure his words by critical standards.
And now and then comes a passage
of natural description or a touch of
human nature that mark the real
orator.
What Is better, the spirit of the
man and his methods of work are
ao wholly Christian that they dis
arm criticism. "You can't querl
with me," he says every day, "for
I won't querl." If the Catholic
Sriest forbids his people to attend
[urphy's meetings, Murphy eulo
gizes Father Mathew, and says not
• word about the priest except in
kindness. For " the rumseller,"
co long tbe black dragon of the
temperance reformer, be has noth
ing but sympathy. And if tbe
prohibitionist denounces him lor
hit gentle treatment of the liquor
dealers, he only says to tbe prohi
bitionist, "God bless you ! we are
going to get everybody to stop
drinking liquor, and then nobody
will want to sell It I" Not a word
of cenßure or denunciation falls
from his lips.
Better still, his whole reliance is
on the divine power. All his meet
ings are iutensely religious meet
ings. All the songs that are sung
are sacred songs. The pledge in
cludes the phrase, "God helping
me." Every man who signs it Is
told that he will need God's help in
keepiug it. And almost all those
wbo are reclaimed in liis meeting*
confess tbeir mi • of this need and
their purpose to seek this help.
There is nothing In the view of ul I
this, except to heap Murphy's oft
repeated benediction upon hia own
head and cry "God Eilasa lilm I"
May the uew Franciscan order
grow faster and live longer than tbe
old one. May the boys wilh the
badges of blue.like the Gray Friars
of old,go everywhere, and be where
tbey go, "like flames of lire," kind
ling a new hope in the heart of the
drunkard, aud lighting tbe way by
which he may escape from degreda
tiou and woe ! — Editor's Table,
