He WANTED A CHANGE-There was a
little shooting scrape at little town in the
interior of Texas not long ago, and it was not
long before Galveston Ne,os reporter was
on the spot interviewing one of the princi-
pals. .,,,
$50 you are going to write it up," said the
survivor.
"Yes, want all the facts"
81 don't care a cent what you say about
the shooting, but | have one little favor to
ask"
The reporter said he would grant it cheer
fully if he could.
"Well," said the shootist, 81 want you to
put down that my grandfather was one of
La6tte's pirates, and the worst cut'throat Of
the gang"
The reporter stared little, but the shoot.

A MEMORABLE DOCUMENT.

The following is copy of the most mem
orable judicial sentence which has ever beer
pronounced in the annals Of the world
namely, that of death against the Saviour
with the remarks which the journal 1foi
has collected, and the knowledge of which
must be interesting to every Christian. Until
now we are not aware that it has ever appear
ed in the German papers. 1t is word for
word as follows:
Sentence pronounced by Pontius PLATE, in
tendant of the Lower Province of Galilee
that Jesus of Nazareth shall suffer death by
the cross.
In the seventeenth year of the reign of the
Emperor Tiberius, and OH the twenty. fourth
day of the month of March, in the holy city
of Jerusalem, during the ponti6cate of An
mas Caiaphus.
Pontius PLATE, the intendant of the lower
Galilee, sitting to Judgment in the presidential
seat of Pretor, sentenced Jesus of Nazareth
to death on the cross, between robbers, as the
numerous and notorious testimonies Of the
people prove:
/. Jesus is misleader.
2. He has excited the people to sedition.
8. He is an enemy to the laws.
4. He calls himself falsely the King OF
Israel.
5. He went into the temple followed by a
multitude carrying palms in their hands.
Orders from the first centurion, Quirrilus
Cornelius to bring him to the place Of execu'
ton:
Forbid all persons, rich or poor, to pre-
vent the execution of Jesus,
The witnesses who have signed the execu-
tion of Jesus are:
/. Daniel Robani, Pharisee.
2. John Zorobebel.
8. Raphael Robani.
A. Capet.
Jesus to be taken out of Jerusalem through
the gates of Tournes.
This sentence is engraved on a plate of
brass, in the Hebrew language, and on its
side are the following words: "A similar
plate has been sent to each tribe" 1t was
discovered in the year 1920, in the city of
Aquilla, in the kingdom of Naples, by a
search made for the Roman Antiquities, and
remained there until it was found by the
commissioner of arts, in the French army of
Italy. Up to the time of the campaign in
Southern Italy it was preserved in the sac.
risity of the Cartbusans, near Naples, where
it was kept in box of ebony. Since then
the relic has been kept in the chapel at Gas.
erta. The Carthusians obtained permission by
their petition, that the piece might be kept by
them, which was an acknowledgement of
the sacrifices which they made for the French
army. The French translation was made
literally by the members Of arts. Demon
had fac simile of the plate engraved, by
Lord Howell, on the sale of his cabinet, for
1880 francs.
There seems to be no historical doubt as to
the authority of this. The reasons Of the
sentence correspond exactly with those in the
gospel Translated from the Kolriveshe Zes'
tung.

"How came your trousers torn?
And black as ink, sir, is that shirt
You put on clean this morn.
"Your feet are wet, too, declare;
You're muddy to your knees;
It is too bad you only care
Your mother, sir, to tease.
"And those nice shoes, your Sunday best,
That but three times you've worn,
All scratched and scraped and all run down,
The heel of one is gone.
"Your hair is twisted in snarl,
And just look at that hand
It looks as though were never washed
How dare you say it's tanned !?
"You've been fishing, sir, I guess
What been to see the match?
You'll have a fit of sickness, sir;
pretty cold you'll CATCH"
And then she talks for half an hour,
your fatRer'll hear Of this tonight;
wonder what he'll say ?"
NV friends, in complimentary way,
Declare to me they see
A close resem bance--very marked
Between the boy and me.
But nothing that they see in him,
In either form OF face,
Bespeak my son as do his pranks-
In these my own I trace.
And why should at tattered clothes
Or dirty ones repine?
In him live my youth again
God bless the boy he's mine!
