THE SENTENCE Of JESUS.
A Copy Of the Original Decree as Issued
by Pontius PLATE.

From the London Tablet.
correspondent of Notes and Queries ex-
tracts from the Kolnische Zeitusq what Is
called "a correct transcript Of the sentence of
death pronounced against Jesus Christ" The
following Is copy Of the most memorable ju-
dicial sentence which has ever been pro-
nounced in the annals Of the world--namely
that Of death against the Saviour, with the re-
marks that the Journal LIE Drot has collected,
the knowledge Of which must be interesting In
the highest degree to every Christian. Until
now we are not aware that it has ever been
made public in the German papers. The SEN
tence is word for word as follows:
Sentence pronounced by Pontius PLATE. In
tendant of the Province Of Lower Galilee that
Jesus Of Nazareth shall suffer death by the
cross. In the seventeenth year Of the reign of
the Emperor of Tiberius. and on the 25th Of
the month OF March, in the most holy city Of
Jerusalem. during the Pontifcate of Anuas and
Calaphas, Pontius PLATE, Intendant of the Prov
ince OF Lower Galilee. sitting in judgment in
the presidential seat Of the Pretors,
sentences Jesus Christ of Nazareth to death
on cross between two robbers, as the numer-
prove: l. Jesus is a misleader. 2. He has ex-
cited the-people to sedition. 3. He Is an
enemy to the laws. 4. He calls himself the
Son Of God. 5. He calls himself falsely the
Ming OF Israel. b. lie went INTO the Temple
followed by multitude carrying palms in
their hands. Orders: The first centurion,
Quintus Cornelius, to bring him to the place
OF execution. Forbid all persons, rich or poor,
to prevent the execution Of Jesus. The wit
nesses who have signed the execution against
Jesus are: l. Daniel Robani, Pharisee; 2.
John Zorobabel; 3. Raphael Robani 4. Capet.
Jesus to be taken out Of Jerusalem through
the gate of Tournea."
The sentence is engraved on o plate of brass
In the Hebrew language, and on its sides are
the following words: "A similar plate has been
sent to each tribe" 1t was discovered in the
year 1880 in the city OF Aquill (Aquilla?) in the
kingdom OF Naples. by q search made for the
discovery of Roman antiquities. and remained
there until it was found by the commissaries of
art in the French army of Italy. Up to that
time OF DC campaign in southern Italy it was
preserved in the sacristy Of the Carthusians,
near Naples, where II was kept in box of
ebony. Since then the relic has been kept in
the chapel of Caserta. The Carthusians OBJ
tanned 1t by their petitions that the plate might
be kept by them. which was an acknowledge
ment Of the sacrifices which they made for the
French army. The French translation was
made literally by members of the commission
OF arts. Demon had fac simile of the plate
engraved, which was bought by Lord Howard
on the sale of his cabinet for $3.50 francs.
There seems to be no historical doubt as to the
authenticity of this. The reasons Of the SEN
tence correspond exactly with those Of the
Gospels

Warm Water as q Stimulant.
From the New York Herald

An elaborate system of experiments recently
conducted by the Agricultural College of Mich
igan show that milk and butter products are
slightly increased by warming the water drank
by dairy cows. Prof. johnson, who directed
these experiments, says the results are not so
pronounced in favor of warm water as was ex-
pected, and the difference is SO slight az
scarcely to pay for warming the water. Though
the gain in milk and butter may hardly pay the
dairyman. nevertheless we may say the i'm
prOvement Of the cows condition by the arti-
hcial warmth OF the water is great The ami
NAL may be compared to an inanimate motor,
like the steam engine, deriving ali
its power for locomotion and digestion
from its internal heat Ordinarily the
heat necessary to keep the animal in
health and vigor to enable it to resist external
cold is evolved within its body by the chemical
changes going on in the process of digesting
Its food. When this supply of animal heat
runs low, as it il sure to do in a severe winter.
the animal suffers in all its organs. But if the
natural heat is supplemented by the artificial
heat in the water the animal drinks all its func-
tons are strengthened and its ability to endure
severe cold is considerably increased. Heat is
also powerful stimulant to the heart. 80 that
cup OF hot tea is much more refreshing than
cold one. There is, therefore, eyery reason
to believe that if the Michigan experiments
were tried generally on dairy farms in winter
the results would decidedly increase the far
mer's profits.

TCOCS RETURN.

TOO MUCH LOVE Is SURE TO AWAKEN CONTENT
TUoUs RETURN.
From the London Spectator.
The idolized almost always despises the idol
ator, and as frequently shows the contempt he
sometimes she-feels. The adoring wife, who
follows every word Of her husband and makes
herself as plastic the ameba-who lives
only in his smiles, and who breaks down into
tears when he frowns-she makes lovely pic
ture in fiction, and Medora will never want
Conrad to admire her-hypothetically. In re-
ality Conrad would have wearied Of her before
the week was out, and be would not have
scrupled to show what he felt And when the
two natures come together In actual life, as
they do sometimes and the gelatinOus, proto-
plastic, adOring wife, invertcbrate and weak
willed spends her days IN mental alteration Of
her husband. the chances are that husbands
mood toward her Is one of distaste and con-
tempt. and that utter WEAKNESS Of the soul
which comes from the constant reflection Of
ones own humor.
So with women. When they find man fool
ish and week-kneed enough to be always in an
attitude of alteration before them they feel for
him only scorn and that cruelty Of tyranny
which is the fitting portion for slaves-accord-
ing to the creed Of the slave-owner. His folly
and want OF reserve are matched by their hard
ness in letting him feel the effect on them
selves. The state OF both is pitiable.-as pitia-
BILE as that when the wife is the little dog who
fawns on the hand Of the master who spurns,
and whose self-respect is lost in her alteration.
All this applies to all forms of love-not only
to that between husband and wife or between
lovers. 1t applies equally to parents and chill
dren-to the mother who loves her children
beyond reason, and therefore beyond their own
good; to the father who is Lear" with too
certainly .Lear's' fatal fortune Of ingrati-
tude; to the daughter who makes bad wife
because she is too fond daughter; to the son
who makes bad husband because too fond a
son. How many married homes have been
wrecked on this rOck!-when the wife cannot
tear herself from her mother and the husband
sacrifices his wife to his mother. The wisdom
OF reserve, what bit OF true wisdom it is!
Without it, how the lights flare and the dust
flies.

DON'T EXERCISE TOO MUCH.
Moderate Exercise Il Good for Dyspep
STA but Too Much is Dangerous.

From the New York Mail and Express
Exercise is one Of the bes. cures for dyspepsia
known TO medical science:
Dyspepties, on rising IN the morning, do well
to indulge in q few free gymnastics Of the
movement cure species, before putting on the
outer Clothes that interfere with free move

exercises come to some Of the active labor en-
ployments which are cure for many ills. Fol-

one arm and then the other, as though swing

fists the movements Of the wood sawyer. or to

The queen Of Sweden takes the .'housemaid

these movement exercises are good when the

The Eggs Were Artificial.

AN ANGRY PITTsBCRG WOMAN ENLIaHTENs THE

She then took one Of them from the basket
and broke it. and, when the officers observed
the yoik, their faces bore the evidence of most
unmistakable wonder. In shape the yolk was
similar to that Of real egg, but its color dif-
fered somewhat from that article, being darker
and Of brovner tint than that in the ordinary
egg Besides, that, however. the yolk of the false
egg consisted Of more jelly-like substance

Children as Suicides.

Agnes KeppOof In the Catholic World
Eight years ago an English writer on suicide
announced to the startled world that of the
10000 Europeans who annually took their own
lives 900 were children. The youngest case
then recorded was that of boy of nine, who
drowned himself for grief at the loss of his net
canary. Since 1880 we have beaten the record
many times. The number Of suicides has in
creased enormously, and America alone can
point to more than one baby of seven who has
wearied OF its hardly tasted existence. From
twelve TO sixteen, however, appears to be the
age at which children are most prone TO self
destruction, and il we examine Few of the in

A Great Year for Nuts.

CHEsTNUTs IN STRONG DEMAND-HICKoRY NUTS
ARE PLENTY-MANY ENGLISH wALSUTs.
From the New York Mail and Express
This has been great year for nuts. Chest
nuts, which were about the first to arrive, came
in in larger quantities than ever before. The
crop in all sections Of the country was an i'm
mense one, and dealers expected to see the
market glutted and prices fall very low. But
such has not been the case. The demand has
increased with the supply, and three or four
times the usual quantity has been sold at good
prices. The italian street vendors are the best
customers that the dealers have. They pur-
chase by the bushel, and sell tho nuts roasted,
boiled or raw on the street corners, by the gill
and pint, for about double what they cost.
Hickory nuts are also sold on the street
stands in large quantities, but are not in as
great demand as chestnuts. The difficulty Of
getting their meat out OF the shell may have
something to do with this. The old way Of
holding n fat-iron in the lap and operating on
the shell with hammer has gone out now
probably on account OF the battered thumbs
The vendors operate patent nut-crackers and
sell the nuts cracked 80 that the meat comes
out easily. The size of the hickory nuts and
the wilderness OF the shells govern the price,
An inferior variety Of hickory nuts known in
the country as pig nuts. are often sold here to
unsuspecting purchasers. They have q thin
white shell and the meat is quite bitter in
flavor.
English walnuts are just coming in. They
are sold in smaller quantities than the hickory
nuts for table use on account of their appear
ance, but arr used in immense Quantities by
confectioners. They have q rich, oily favor
that makes them very popular. Very few but
ternuts are sent to market. although there is q
good demand for them. The bulk Of the hick-
DRY nuts come from Pennsylvania. New Jersey
and the Hudson River valley. Walnuts come
from all Of the Middle states, but West Virginia
lately come forward az an almond producing
state. her annual crop now amounts to
1000, 900 pounds, but they are nearly all con-
sumed in the West. Among the other native
nuts that reach this market are hazel nuts and
beech nuts, but both are in limited quantities
and sell ct fancy prices.
