It in Cuba a num b er of New York news per men were in Havana trying to get * ' the S a a id b; to stay in ono place, and under conditions to take pictures of forts or I of soldiers under penalty of imprison- j meut. One daring member of the i press, arm ed with a camera, went to one of the principal forts and began i to photograph it. He was taken in by Tobilla’s men and brought before the Oommandante as a captive. He ! spoke excellent Spanish and thus ad- i dressed the officer: “ Most Excellent Sir, at last I have found you. I have come all the way from America to take your picture.\ , “ Indeed! Why, my men say you were taking pictures of foriitications!\ | “ No, indeed; 1 heard of your valor at a recent battle, and I made up my mind that you were a hero and my people ought to know of you.\ “ But I have not my proper uniform on. Do you really wish to take me?\ “ Certainly; and after you get your uniform on, have your men drawn up in line and massed around you out in the sunlight, so I can get plenty of light, and also prove to my people what excellent soldiers you have in your division.\ “ You do me great honor, sir. Your request shall be granted.\ In a short time the Commandaute and his men were on parade in front of the fortifications and the newspaper man took half a dozen camera shots at them, and also at, the fort, which was the chief object of the visit. Tobiila saw him off* to tho next town with a gnard of honor and dis charged him from custody with n salute, and in the next “ copy\ he sent to his paper the correspondent had the only pictures in existence of some very im p o rtant fortifications and tho flower of the Spanish soldiery in Cuba.

F op thirty years we hear nothin* ol him except that he was In the deserts. Sud denly he appears as prophet, reformer and Ike forerunner of Christ. lie was an au stere Nasarlte In appearance, dress, food and mode of life. He tyns like a seprodae- tlon ol Elijah of old. He was a priest by birth. He stands out In sharp coetram With the spirit and manners of hie time.

This was \a baptism requiring aud representing an lu* ward spiritual change; the pledge of re- - mission of sins to those who were truly penitent.\ „ 4. “As It Is written.\ Luke callsatteu* tlon to Isaiah’s prophecy regarding the character of tho om tog reformation. •The voice.\ “The prophecy draws atten tion to the work rather than to tbe worker.” This voice was clear, distinct, loud. “Prepare ye.\ The Idea Is taken from the practice of eastern who, whenever they took n joi harbingers before them to p rount 5. “Every rallev, etc.\ This is figura tive language.

Repentance includes, (1) convle- monarchs, our ney, shut Id not atop with a profession, ust show their reformatlou by tholf act. Repentance Includes, fl) convl tlon; (2) contrition; (3) confession; (4) r formation; and loads to conversion. John, Jesus, Peter aud Paul all preached re pentance. “Aud begin not to say, etc/* “The natural impulse-of the uuregenemte heart Is to seek out excuses aud^subter- fug's when the conscience Is touched/* John shatters two common errors. The first, that baptism would bo sufllcloot to turn the wr.-itb of God away, uud second, thst because they are children of Abraham, therefore they are safe. “These stones/* Undoubtedly n reference to the calling of the Gentiles. Out of those hard, uurogen- erato hearts God Is ubio to make hearts of flesh and children of Abraham. 9. “The axe Is laid.\ There lean allusion hero to a woodman, who, having marked# tree for excision, lays Ills axo nt the root, while ho lays off his outer garment In or der that he may wield more powerful blows. The Jewish nation Is the tree, end the Romans tho axe, which, by tbe Just ju igmeuts of God, was speedily io out It “The people nske 1.\ There are three classes of persons here who ask the seme atlou, “What shall wo do?” persons here on, “Whnt shall n twers given by John show that he under' stood the sins they were practicing.
