CONCLUSION.-Tlie temple wns grcat
'v needed to unify tho religious thought
and practice of Israel. Somo Imposing
?pot where God would record His name.
(K-*. XX: 2-1) and co.mo and visit his
people in u special manner according to
his promise would protect them against.
the abominable practices In which Dip
heathen Indulged. Tho long annual Jotir
i-evs from till parts of Iho land, made at
-tilted times, would promote the national
feeling. But tho temple proved to be lho
?nare tlio source of much evil, because
it usurped to tho place In tho hearts of
the people which God only might occupy.
Accordingly, Its services relapsed into
profitless formalism. An enemy was sent
to tear down Its walls nnd to carry away
lis holy vessels with tho captive people.
And even after tho second tcmplo was
built tho people In Hlte manner held
It witn idolatrous reverence .-is In the
time of Christ, and it was destroyed.
(Matt. XXIV: 2.) How prone Is man to
turn tha blessings of God Into curses.

VIRGINIA BUILDING
The House Committee Makes
Favorable Report on
*the Bill.
The Houso Committee on Finance yes?
terday afternoon, by a large majority,
reported tho Kelley bill, to appropriate
$10,000 for a Virginia building at the St.
Louis Exposition with tho recommenda?
tion that It pass tho House.
The advocates of tho measure were de?
lighted with the action of lho cornmlttoo
lust night, and am now almost confident
of tho passage of tho bill at the short
session,
Mr. Kelley, the. patron of tho bill, nnd
Captain XV. W. Baker, ono of tlie assis?
tant World's Fair Commissioners, who
has been especially active In raising pri?
vate subscriptions for this purpose, ap?
peared before. . the body and urged a
favorable report, and they both pointed
out In strong torms tho necessity of
legislative aid. If tho scheme was to bo
ft success, Inasmuch as all lho private
subscriptions are conditioned upon tlio
1 assago of such it montane.
If the hill shall pass, us now seems
likely, those In charge of the Virginia
etnl of the exposition have every assur
anco of a handsome exhibit, as well na
a creditable State building al St, Loula
