A $1,000 SERMON.
, THE NEW YORK HERALD GAVE THIS
SUM IN A PRIZE CONTEST.
{a -—-——
Rev. Richard G. \‘l'cmlln'idge, Pastor o!
the Congregational Church of Dllmllc-
boro, Mass, Wins the Money by aDes-
ertration on the Power of Gentleness. .
The New York Herald offered a. prize
of $1,000 to the minister who should
write for publication the best sermon.
A provision of the contest was that the
money should be devoted to charity.
The sermon to which the Herald
awarded the prize was written by the
Rev. Richard G. Woodbridge, pastor of
the Central Congregational Church,
Middleboro, Mass, and is given here-
with:
“THE POWER OF GENTLENESS.”
“Thy gentleness hath made me great.”
—-Psalms, xviii., 35.
There is little in the popular idea of
gentleness to make it desirable for God
or man. We thnk of it as lacking in
vigor and a long way removed from
greatness. So suggestive is it of weak—
ness and softness that we want very
little to do with it.
Our ideas of gentleness need rectify-
ing. We speak often of a gentle horse.
What do we mean by it? That horse
that is nervy and full of mettle, able
to pass anything on the road, and yet
so easily subdued that the voice of a.
little child would bring him to a stand-
still at once. That man is gentle who
has the strength of a Hercules and the
tenderness of a woman. Gentleness is
power withholding itself and spending
itself in goodness.

THE REV. RICHARD G. WOODBRIDGE.
A good illustration of gentleness was
that on a Spanish battlefield. A gal-
lant French soldier's sword was uplift-
ed‘ to strike his foe to the earth, but
he saw as the sword was about to de~
scend that his antagonist had but one
arm. Instantly he stayed his sword,
brought it to a salute and rode on.
Gentleness in a. woman is love’s
mighty magnet, and will attract its
own from the end of the earth. A
woman without it is a. monstrosity; a.
warrior with it is greater far than he
who shows his power by burning vil-
lages, destroying crops, executing pris-
oners. The great General at Appomat-
tox, considering the interests of the
men in gray, treating them as his fel-
low countrymen, silencing the salute
already under way to, celebrate victory
lest they should be further humiliated,
and sending the defeated ones home
well fed and equipped for labor on the
farms, declared'himself a. gentle man
as well as a great soldier, and did
more in that hour to make his country
great than other great men have done
in a. lifetime. Grant could have
crushed the South in that hour; in-
stead, he caressed it as a. mother her
weak, wayward child, and melted it to
tears. ‘
We speak often of the power of God,
but itris the gentleness of God that
works the greatest wonders. It is this
that makes men great. See the gen-
tleness of God at the beginning. It is
not the strong arm, but the tender
heart, that concerns itself‘with fallen
man. It is not a. king’s voice that we
hear in Eden, but a father’s. Pathetic
cry that, “Adam, Adam, where art
thou?” When God came down in hu-
man flesh to save a lost world He came
in the same spirit. A still and quiet
night it was when the Saviour was
born. The stars looked down peace»
fully upon the shepherds as they
watched their sheep. The world was
wrapt in slumber. It was into this
stillness andquiet that God’s angels
came and God's glory shone around.
Gentle words those were the, angel
spoke: “Be not afraid.” So sweet and
gentle was the music of the angelic
host that no one save the ,shepherds
heard it. '
The spirit of the Gospel is the same.
It is summed up in the words: “A
bruised reed will He not break; the
smoking fiax He will not quench.” It
is by gentleness that God seeks to win
the world to righteousneSS and truth.
“The Lord God is a. sun.” Sooner or
later cold and icy hearts must give
way before Him. We need more gen-
tleness before the earth can become
like heaven—gentleness on the part of
parents. You can shout at your chil-
dren and bring them into trembling
submission; you can thrash them into
obedience; you can starve them into
submission. The strong can bring the
weak to terms for a while by these
methods. But if you want to show your
child the sweet reasonableness of
your position and to make him docile,
obedient, trustful, sit down and talk
gently with him and seek to make his
heart your own.
file need more gentleness on the part
of teachers. It is by appealing to the
best in a boy that the best is devel-
oped. Humiliate a boy, degrade him,
ridicule him, and you have not sub-
dued him. Beam upon him gently and
lovingly, apart and alone, and he will
be your friend forever.
‘We need more gentleness on the part

toward all men." The Great Preacher
was so gentle that Simon the Pharisee
asked him to dine with him; the poor
harlot lingered near His feet caress-
izzgly; Zaccheus and Matthew, the pub-
licans, became His loyal disciples, and
even a thief, in the agony of crucifix—
irn, cried: “Lord, remember me!" The
world needs nothing more than it need:
gentleness and love. Human hearts
are hungry for the music of gentle
voices and the touch tenderness.

scholars have been made thoughtful

of self-denying teachers. Souls small,

WIRE SAWSSFOR STONE CUTTING.
One Cable “’1“ Dress More Than 500
Square Feet.
In the stone quarries of St. Triphon,
in the Rhone Valley, the stone is sawn
by means of continuously running steel
wire cables kept moist yvith wet sand.
The wire, which is about a quarter of
an inch in diameter, is an endless rope
travelling over a. system of pulleys.

er at one end or a tightener at the
other, and one part of the rope is al-
ways being pressed against the por-
lion of stone from which the block is
to be cut.
speed of 1,000 to 1,200 feet per minute,
and as it enters the cut it is charged
with a silicious sand in a. small jet of
of the cable, forms the actual cutting
matreial, and does the work rapidly
and well. A running cable contains
|about 500 feet and can make cuts of
100 feet long if necessary. It will dress
about 1,000 square feet of surface, or
fnore than 500 square feet of out, before
it becomes worn too smooth to.hold
sand. In order to remove a ledge of
stone, pits are dug around it about a.
vard in diameter, and as deep as the
cut is desired to be. The cable is then
started and cuts the ledge into blocks,
which being held only by their bot-
tom surfaces, can be readily split off
by wedges. These large blocks are re-
moved by a powerful electric traveling
crane, and afterward sawed into small-
er sizes, and loaded by the crane upon
cars for transport. While the crane
ls rated at a capacity of thirty tons, a.
block containing 460 cubic feet and
weighing thirty-three tons has been
quarried and transported—St. Louis
