There was much to be done in building up and fortifying the new capital city, jand there were numberless minor do Com mestic affairs to le adjusted, plying with the agreement or covenant between him and the people, was j bringing order out of chaos; and it required time to provide the necessary | machinery and set it in motion, elim inating friction wherever possible, and so defining the duties of different of ficials, that one should not infringe upon the sphere of another. In addition to these internal affairs, there were two separate invasions of the Philistines to be met. Two battles were fought on substantially the same ground. It is worthy of remark that David undertook neither campaign I without first inquiring of the Lord. Of course he was victorious in both cam paigns, the last victory being a most •ignal one. During these ten years a new char acter appears on the scene. We don't know when the alliance with Hiram, the king of Tyre, was forced, but It seems to have lasted through the reigns of David and his son, and was of immense benefit to the Jewish kings. Hiram assisted David in build ing him a palace, and as it was nec essary to Import carpenters and ma "FORTY-FIVE MINUTES FROM BROADWAY" Giving the followers their money's Five Minutes From Broadway" with Scott Welch in the leading part, is to be presented at the AuditQrium next Monday night. Following out this theory he has provided an entertainment that would succeed along both. His play might be considered entirely by itself for there is a real plot that is acted for all there is in it by a company of real actors and actresses, and in ad dition there are enough song hits to entitle the piece to recognition and fame on that score alone and make the fame of a mediocre musical comedy. worth has long been an axiom of George M.

To a man who always asked divine direction before undertaking anything of a public nature, and whose soul was aflame with love of God, the low state of religion among the people ten a source of pain. At the very best, the worship of God, as prescribed by moses, was impracticable under then existing circumstances. For there is no account that the ark was ever in the tabernacle, after it was taken into battle by the sons of Elo, during the boyhood of Samuel. was of It then fell into the hands of the Philistines, who were glad to send it it back after a few months, placed in the house of Abinadab, in Kirjathjearim, in the care of his son, Eleazar, where it It was remained twenty years, during the reign of Saul it seems to have been at one time at I near Gobeah, after which no mention is made of it until David brings it from Baale-Judah, which is simply another name for Kirjath-Jearim.

After consulting with the leading men all over the country, David de cided to bring the ark to his own city, which he purposed making the ligious, as well as the political itai of the nat re cap a retinue of thirty tbousanj men he went to where the ark was, and with great pomp, placed the sacred chest new cart drawn by oxen, and the pro cession started on its way. But some where on the route a terrible thing occurred. At a rough place in the road, it seemed to Uzzah, one of the attendants, as if the ark would fall to the ground, and he caught hold of it to steady it. For this act of irrever ence, he_ was stricken dead—how, we are. not told. Great fear fell upon the whole procession, and David, realising no doubt, that he was mostly to blame for attempting to move it in his way and had it placed in the house of Obed-Edom, the Gittite. on a own Here the lesson text leaves it, but the sequel shows that it remained there only three months. And these were busy months for David. Realizing his own impiety in the matter, he set to work to rectify it. He constructed a tabernacle to place it in on its arrival doubtless modeled after the old He also had the requisite number of priestB and Levites one. sanctified and properly clad of the occasion; provided with a great number of of ferings, he again essayed to bring the ark to the city.
