Of persons might enter it. Blu,
beyond the wall, the wall which
separated this from the next
court, no uncircumciscd was per.
mitted to pass. A prohibition tc
that effect was inscribed upon
the gate post. Around this outer
court the stock for the supply of
the temple service was kept, and
the money changers had their
place of business. The second
court was enclosed by a wall-it
was called the new court, the
outer court, or the court of the
women, because women were not
allowed to go beyond it toward
the sanctuary unless when they
brought a sacrifice. In this court
men and women performed their
ordinary worship unaccompanied
with sacrifice. Here also was
the treasury where the gifts for
the service of the temple were
deposited in small chests or coff-
ers fixed in the surrounding wall
and this was the place where
some Of our Saviors most impress
sive discourses were delivered.
The next court toward the sane
tuary was the court of Israel, the
outer half of which was entered
by common Israelites to attend
particular services of religion,
but the inner half next to the
sanctuary was called the court
of the Priests and they were sep
arated from each other py a low
railing. Our Savior being of the
tribe of Judah, had no privileges
in the Temple above the any 9TH
er Israelite. Hence whatever
He is said to have done in the
Temple must be intended of the
courts of the Temple. Within
the court of priests stands the
altar of burnt offerings and the
brazen LAYER, and not even an Is
raelite could on any condition
pass the railing that enclosed
them unless when he came to
offer his sacrifice before the al
tar. Next came the sanctuary,
the material of which was beau
tiful and costly beyond descrip-
ton. The porch extended $50
feet across the front of the main
building. It was 80 feet wide
and rose at it's highest elevation
to nearly 1870 feet. The entrance
to the porch was 135x37 feet; it
had no doors. The sanctuary
was 80 feet eigh, 80 feet long.
and 80 feet wide. Around it ex-
cept in front was a structure of
3 stories high like that nttached
to the first Temple as before de-
scribed.
The sanctuary had two apart
ments, separated from each 9TH
er by a curtain or veil, viz: the
holy place, which occupied 60 #.
of the whole length in which
were the altar Of incense, the
gold candlestick and the table of
shewbread and the Most Holy
Place, which measured 30 feet
every way. It is worthy of re-
mark that in our translation of
the Bible when these apartments
are mentioned by these terms
the word place is generally, if not
always, supplied by the transla-
tors.
The Temple was RACED to it's
foundation by the Romans A. D.
7O-71, and the site of it was made
like a ploughed field. 1t is now
occupied by a Turkish mosque,
which neither Jew nor Christian
was until lately permitted to en-
ter.
The generation in which the
Temple was regarded by the
Jews appears from the manner
in which they treated any sup
posed disrespectful allusion to it.

edifice, strictly speaking, but
rather a complete repair Of the

work only II years before the
birth of Christ and completed the
main building in less than ten
years, so that it was fit for ser
vice! The whole work occupied
46 years. John 2: 20. We shall
describe it as it stood in the day
of our Savior:
The outer wall which enclosed
the building was about 1-8 of a
mile square and nearly 40 feet
above the summit of the Mount.

valley beneath and in some plac-
es from 600 to 700 feet A.igh. It

the success of Mr.. Gauthier with

They'll Steal Again.

The Indignation created in this
state by the action of the State
Central Committee in refusing to
investigate the protest OF Mr.. Bal
ley, and proclaiming the nomlna-
ton of Mr.. Lambremont, is such
that large number of the Demo-
Gratis Of this State will vote the
Republican tickets, in order to
punish the Democrats.
These dissatisfied and disgues-
ted Democrats seem to forget that
their voting the Republican ticket
will not hurt the Democrats in the
least and will not interfere with
the result of The election.
The bosses in control of the
election machinery in New Orleans
insures the Democratic ticket a
large majority, regardless of bow
the people vote. If the bosses can
steal a Democratic candidate. what
will they do with the Republicans
The same thing they have already
done in the case of Capt. j. N.
Pharr. The bosses do not care a
cent for the voters, if they cant
control those who go to the polls
they control the absentees and The
dead of Louisiana and Mississippi
aud when this will not do, they
simply stuff the boxes with enough
votes to elect their ticket and this
is all there is about it.
The only relief for the outraged
Democrats is to help Mr.. Bale!
with his case. and not stop unit
every one of the thieves 10 safel,
put behind prison bars.
Only the conviction of the cleo
ton thieves will insure an homes
election. All the Democrats il
Louisiana can vote the Republican
ticket and they will not chang
the result as long rs the bosse
are in control of the election ma
chinery as they have it now.
1t is not the votes of the Demo
Gratis that will help the Republj
cans, it is the conviction of th
election thieves that will give ther
a chance.

The Valley of the Teche Sus
pended.

In it's last issue Bro. Maurice
Patin has announced the discon-
tinuation of the publication of the
Valley of the Teche. The suspen-
sion of the Valley leaves Breaux
Bridge without newspaper. We
consider that the people of that
town have made a grave mistake
by not giving Bro. Patin the sup
port he was entitled to. The VAL
lev was the best and most vaiua-
BILE institution of the town, and,
yet, the people there do not seem
to appreciate this fact. Mr.. Pa.
tin, the owner of the paper made
strong effort to make the Valley
a good paper. and in fact succerd'
ed in making it too good for the
patronage the town gave him. and
the best thing he could do under
the circumstances was to discon'
tinue his paper.
A newspaper. like any other ell
terprise, is business institution
and must be made to pay, it cos
money to produce the smalles
newspaper, and the revenues o
paper must be large enough t.
pay the running expenses ant
leave a reasonable profit or salar!
for the owner.

The report of State Engineer

SHE MEANT TO KILL.
Lowell Woman Shoots at Lover and
Intended to End Own Life.

Lowell, Mass, Feb. 2c.-After firing
three shots at her friend, Frank 3.
Kirk tonight, Mrs. Jennie Shampney,
&c years Old, was arrested by a police
inspector just as she was in the act
of attempting to take her own life with
teh same revolver. The woman met
Kirk in one Of the principal streets
of the city and while scores of people
were passing, she drew a revolver from
her muff and began fusilade. Two of
the shots went wild, while the third
only pierced the padding Of Kinks
overcoat at the shoulder.
Immediately afterward. in the midst
of the excitement occaSiOned by the
shooting, the woman made her escape
to her rom on Tyler street. Police In
spectors Walsh and Grady. who fol-
lowed her, broke open the door Of her
rom and found her standing before the
mirror with the revolver in her hand,
apparently with the intention OF Kill
ing herself The inspectors snatched
the weapon away and tok her into
custody.
When questioned by the police Mrs.
Shampney declared that she shot Kirk
because she believed he was about to
leave her She said that she had been
friendly with him for some time and
that it had been agreed that they
should he married as soon as divorce
proceedings between herself and her
husband had been completed.

the rear vestibule when the car swung
around and struck a tree. 1t is sup
