The Sanhedrim was forbidden to in
vestigate any capital crime during the
night, and, according to the Roman
law, sentence pronounced before
dawn was not valid. The council now
adjourned, to meet at daybreak, when
they could legally pronounce the SEN
tence. This regular session was
brief one. The evidence was repeated
and formal vote taken, and Jesus
was taken to the Roman court before
PLATE for the necessary approval Of
the sentence.
PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS.
Unbelievers try to find, not the truth
about Christianity and the Bible, but
only evidence against them.
There is Il time to be silent, under
false accusations, and refute them only
by our lives. Speech is silvern, silence
is golden"
We should openly confess our pur-
poses and hopes at the proper time,
when to keep silent would be treason
to the truth and the cause. Then

resolved on such plan, being tired of

task. She met with but what few
women would have won-success. She

weary smile, that of the two horrors,
dressmaking was the least to be
dreaded.

The attention of the British admiral
ty has been called to the one serious
drawback the modern steel ship pos
sesses, namely, the death-like GOODNESS
Of the interior walls. 1t is possible, In
deed, to warm the ship with steam, but
nothing can warm the sides IN cold
weather, and the man that
sleeps near the unsympathetic steel
Is liable to contract rheumatism
In the unconscious effort to warm
It by the sacrifice of his own
vital heat. On very cold days the

But, the next verse goes on to say,
many bare false witness against Him.
This was easy to bring about. Any
where in Asia, Broadus tells us, not to
speak Of the other countries, there are
hangers-on about the courts ready to
sell testimony. But significantly
their witnesses agreed not together"
Falsehoods seldom agree. Only the
truth is harmonious At last, however,
they found two who seemed TO agree,
and have charge of some weight; but
the testimony was false-false, because
the facts were not correctly reported,
because they were entirely misapplied
and perverted. Said they: I'VE heard
him say, will destroy the temple that
Is made with hands, and within three
DAYS will build another made without
hands"
The Jews idolized the temple. Note
that His accusers were obliged to go
back three years, to the very opening
of His ministry, to find what they might
even call testimony John 2:19). This
was either misunderstood, dimly re-
membered, or willfuly perverted.
The high priest was bafiied at every
point There was no hope of formulate
ing charge unless Jesus Himself could
be induced to say something which
could be perverted into blasphemy.
According to Matthew, it was solemn
oath that the high priest offered him.
Il adjure thee by the living God that
thou tell u.s. AS much as to say: l put
you under oath, that you may clear
yourself Of the charge that you have
made this claim, but meant as an OPP
portunity for him to make the claim

the authority and sanction of Annas,
and probably very little was done here
beyond this. Annas very soon sends
Jesus to Caiaphas.
The council sought for witness
against Jesus. Not to ascertain the
truth; they did not desire that. But,
"having secured their prisoner, they
must first agree upon the charge" and
this must be sufficiently grave to make
the penalty death. 1t was no easy mat

stainless, but He had shown consummate
skill in avoiding all the entanglements
which had been set for Him.

Mitchell, Of Oregon, who Is tho senior

HinJ,oa, Del
Ny DEAR SEyAToR:-I beg respect
fully to acknowledge with thanks tho
receipt oil yours OF the 1lth inst, inclos.
ing memorandum OF the clauses OF the
constitution OF Delaware on. OF which
arises tho question us to whether COL
onel Henry A. Dnpon: was elected by
the legislature Of Delaware a. your sue.
ccssor. l have examined with consid-
erable care the various provisions, to-
gether with the suggestions you have
made.
While perhaps it is scarcely proper
that one who will be compelled to pass
upon tho question, first in committee
and then in the senate, should express
an opinion in advance OF full argu-
mont. l have no hesitation in giving
you personally my present impressions,
which arc very strongly to tho effect
that the acting governor oil your state
"holding" tho office OF governor has no
right whilo holding such Office and ex-
ercising its functions to exercise any OF
the functions OF a senator, either those
relating to the election OF au United
States senator or otherwise. II ! am
right in thi,, then it would seen to fol-
low very very clearly that Nr. Dupont
was legally elected senator.
"In reaching the conclusion that the
speaker OF tho senate, while holding the
office ot governor. cannot OK ercisc sena.
torial functions, 1t is not nee cssary to go
to the extent that on entering upon the
Office OF governor he forever ceased to
be a senator. His functions as such
may be, and ! think are, entirely sus-
pended, but ii, for any reason. for in
btanCo Oy tno eIcCtlOn OIL governor De-
fore tho expiration OF the term OF soma
tor for which tho acting governor was
elected, he ceased to hold tho Office Of
governor aud exercise its functions,
there would aeem to be no reason why
he could not thcn propc rly resume uud
exercise tho functions OF senator TO
tha ond OF tho torn for which he was
elected as such.
'.There arc to my mind very many
reasons to be advanced which in view OF
tho constitution OF your state is tho cor
rect ono. while the argum ents. 1t seems
to mo, in support Of the position that
tho same person can at tho same time
exercise tho double fu notions OF exccu
two and legislator, have but slight, II
any support arising out Of tho various
provisions OF the constitution or OF gen.
cral public policy. Possibly on full ar.
gumen. Of able counsel, tho view l havo
taken and which horo suggest. might
be changed.
