MARK WELL THE MAUsOLEUM.

Mark well the mausoleum in the rock
It is to be the most celebrated tomb IN all
the ages; catacombs of Egypt, tomb OF
Napoleon, Mahal Tai of India, nothing
compared with it. Christ had just been
murdered, and his body must be thrown
out to the dogs and the ravens, as was
customary with crucifed bodies, unless
there be prompt and effective hindrance.
Joseph. the owner of the mausOleum, begs
for the body of Christ, and he takes and
washes the poor and mutilated frame from
the blood and the dust, and shrouds it and
perfumes it. -t
Think kembalmment was omitted. When
in olden times they wished to embalm a
dead body, the priest with some pretenslon
of medical skill would show the point be-
tween the ribs where the incision was to
be made. Then the operator would come
and make the incision, and then run for
his life else he would be slain for violating
the dead body. Then the other priests
would come with salt of inter, and cassia,
and wine of palm tree, and complete tine
embalmment. But think in this case em-
balmment was omitted lest there be more
excitement and another riot. The funeral
advances. Present, Joseph, the owner Of the
/ mausoleum; Nicodemus, who brought the
flowers, and the two Marys Heavy bur
den on the shoulders of two men as they
carry the body of Christ down the marble
stairs and into the portieo, and lift the dead
/ weight to the level of the niche in the
rock, and push the body Of Christ into the
only pleasant resting place it ever had.
| These men coming forth close the door OF
rock against the recess. The government,
afraid that the disciples would steal the
body of Christ and play resurrection, put
upon the door the seal Of the Sanhedrim,
! the violation OF that seal, like the violation
of the seal of the United States govern
ment or Of the British government, always

M GUARD oF I'M TOM.

A regiment Of soldiers from the tower Of
Antonio is detailed to guard that mauso-
leum. At the door of that tomb fight
took place which decided the question for
all graveyards and cemeteries, Sword Of
lightning against sword Of steel. Angel Of
God against the military. The body in the
crypt begins to move in its shroud Of fine
linen and slides down upon the pavement,
moves through the portieo, appears IN the
doorway, comes up the marble steps,
Christ, having left his moFtuary attire be-
hind him, comes forth id the garb oI a
workman as / take it, from the fact that
the women mistoOk him for the gardener.
There and then was shattered the tomb
so that it can never be rebuilt. All the
trowels of earthly masonry cannot mend
It. Forever and forever it is a broken
tomb Death that day taking the side OF

pose they do. They arc dnller than
clans, if they hope to accomplish

a hill of string beans. They have
not the unity or back bone to legis-

THE ADA JOINT DEBATE.

The Joint debate between Camp
bell and Mckinley at Ada was de-
cidedly noteworthy event. Il
brought IN sharp consrast, before
the people not only Of the state but
Of the nation, the essential differ
ences between the two men, and
their entirely opposite methods of
treating the issues before the people.
Mr.. Campbell, who had the opening
speech, tuned bis pipe to the song of
Calamity" He wept and walled
and predicted oil manner Of gloomy
things for the people Of this nation
unless they open the doors to foreign
competing products and manufac-
lures, unmindful Of the fact that
they would still have to support the
federal government, and that the
burden would be greater than it is at
present. Nor was Mr.. Campbell
manly enough to avoid statements
which he knew to be falsehoods,
such as his remarks on tin plate.
He presented himselfto his audience
not only as = calamity bowler, but as
one Of the brood Of tin-plate liars:
Major McKinley's speech in re
joinder was without doubt the strong
est, the best and the most convincing
he has made in this campaign. Ev-
cry point brought up by Campbell
met its refutation. Nor was the
Major content with merely holding
his own line. He made sweeping
toray into his opponents camp, car
rying dismay and confusion before
him. Campbell could not rally him.
self to rcpcl all of McKinley's argu-
ments. He refused in spite of calls
from his audience and Il direct chal-
lcngc from Major Mckinley, to say
anything about the sii.cr issue. His
closing speech, in place of being u
Jlgniticd, argumentativc rcjoinder to
Mckinley, was demagogic attempt
to dissipate the force Of arguments
which lie could not answer, by at
tempting to play the buffoon and
laugh them away. He violated the
rules Of honorable debate in intro.
duciny new matter into his final re.
ply, in place of making it--as is the
universally recognized rule-an ar.
