should it be thought thing incred-
ible with you that God should raise
the dead?" still has but one answer
namely, that there is no reason why
1t should be thought incredible; be-
cause raising the dead, as the Apos-
tie illustrates 1t in his Epistle to the
Corinthians, is the most natural and
usual thing in the world under certain
conditions. THAT which men SOW is
not quickened except it die"
Life not only after, but through
and by means of death, is the univer-
sal law and the universal event. Only
there must come first the undoing by
decay Of the bondage within which the
principle of the seed is held. So long
as 1t. is imprisoned in the shell it is
bare grain" but when its outer COW
ering is shed in the cocoon, or broken
in the egg, or rotted in the grain, then
the latent life comes forth and God
gives 1t body, and "to every seed it's
own body" So after death and burial,
when the wrappings Of this earthly
flesh are dissolved and done away,
"the body that shall be-" "the body Of
glory" shall emerge In the fullness Of
time.
The miracle or marvel Of the resur-
rection of Jesus Christ, like other
miracles, lies in the fact that 1t dis
regarded the element of time and also
did away with the conditions of de-
cay. "He saw no corruption"
So much for the marvel Of it. Now
for the meaning OF 1t.
First of all. Of course, 1t means that
all the dead shall rise and live again.
1T We believe that Jesus died and
rose again. even so they that sleep
in Jesus will God bring with Him."
The corollary to the article in the
creed, "the third day He rose again" +"
is the article Il believe in the resur-
rection of the body, look for the
resurrection OF the dead or from the
dead" One does not need, one would
not dare. to draw away the hearts and
hopes of men from this great and
blessed revelation of Holy Scripture.
this strong and positive assertion Of
the Christian faith. But 1t is wrong
to postpone the meaning of our Lords
resurrection to this final point Of hu.
man history. It has clear and more
immediate application Of what the
Apostle calls "the power Of His resur.
rection," dead indeed unto sin. but
aHve unto God, through Jesus Christ
our Lord" This must be recognized
and realized as the immediate practi-
cal purpose and result Of the great
fact Of Easter Day.
What is its message to men and
women?
1t is easy to dream dream OF hope
and delight about the future; easy to
have q sentiment and emotion that en-

PLOTS GANG ! - AFT AGLEY County Jail Delivery Is !. Frustrated. ONE OF INMATES sQUEAlED Manufactured Rope from Mattress and Improvised Chisel. Plan Wa. to @Eae' Hole Through Top. of Cell and Drop to Ground # by Rope sGooa Grim
 inai Talsnt Ipvoi,ed.
 
Plan Was to 4Eap. Hole Through Top

cleveriy planned. and well on the way to execution. an attempted jail delivery was = frustrated Tuesday morning when Eugene Shell. a young white prisoner at the county jail, di- ,vulged to Jailer .Pettus the intent of his celi-mates.
 Shell had from the first, it develop ed, been heart and soul in the at- tempt but d dispute among the con spiratprs led him to tell of the. plans, and to start an investigation.
 Immediately after the confession of Smell. thes deputies of Sheriff Hood started through the bastile in a min ute search. and upon the third floor, in the new addition. the quarters of the white prisoners. substantiatfon of the confession was found.s
 A rope; probably twenty feet in length, which had been manufactur- ed by the prisoners from the contents of their mattresses was found: sev- eral bits of heavy lead and iron pip ing and fhesigns of an abortive at tempt to chisel a hole through the ceiling of the sapni were evidences that Shell spoke reliably. He deciar- ed that the chiselling had been made with small bits of steel, procured from the shoe soles Of the prisoners. Dhl .lV StkHS .oE 7.Allc utdAS-SfiAAN NhAs- els could be found. despite the evi- dences of their work.
 Two plans, had been formulated by the prisoners, 1t was developed, one that an attempt would be made to overpower the negro trusty Randall, secure his keys, overcome .JAiler Pet tus and thus make away. This plot, however, had been discarded as too risky, and it was decided that, with the steel bits, they would cut through the steel ceiling. and thus get to the roof. From the roof to the ground the conspirators were to make their way by the rope which they had man ufsctured. Already the hole in the eefling had been started. and the out lines 4chiselled' to the depth of about quarter of an inch.
 Shell. with John Morris, John Man. uel, Lee Hines, John Johnson, Alsred Jones and Gus Arlington were famii- far with the plans. and 1t was thought that the attempt was made merely for their benefit, and not for a gen eral jail delivery. The most of the conspirators were white men. Shell had been arrested some weeks ago. charged with car burglary; Morris was in for alleged theft of two auto mobiles and other effects from the ga- rage of. Mossley and Haigler, and Man uel is charged with Intent to ravish. The others are charged. with the most part, with minor offenses.
 As a precautionary move. those who were considered as parties to the plot were locked iIi steel cages for |, the time. and separated. The aggrega-

So distressed was the wife of the convict that she last week made special trip to Montgomx cry to intercede with the Pardon Board and the Governor for her husband. Her strong appeals had thstr effect. She got promise of the Governor to<grant the pardon.
 The convict in the early part of this year was adyfseds that his stepdanghter was to participate fin a carousal of an unsavory nature in Etowah county. AL ready incensed by previous compro- missing relationships of the sixteen year-old girl the man swore out a warrant for hes arrest believing this the best way to intercept her wayward course. The warrant was issued and as 1t seems there was a shortage of deputies in Gadsden thesnight In ques- tion. The sheriff therefore-.deputized Huskie fo help make the arrest.

New York.-Within the past few
days some ancient remains have been
uncovered in Jerusalem that are of
unusual interest and throw a clear
light on the much discussed question
Of the site Of Calvary. The costly
and imposing Russian hospice, to the
east Of the site Of the Church Of the
Holy Sepulcher, vas reared for the
special purpose of inclosing and con
serving a bit of ancient wall and a
gateway which were unearthed some
years ago. The gateway is covered
with a large glass case.
On the northern side of the rear
wall of the Russian hospice there has
just been brought to light, by the re-
moval Of rubbish in preparing for
some alterations and improvements,
another bit of old wall which is on a
line with and part of the wall within
the Russian hospice, and another old
gateway. 1t is now clear that all Of
this wall and both of these gateways
date from the time of Constantine,
having been built by him to inclose
the area IN which he erected the
shrines covering the then recently dis.
covered tomb Of Christ and Calvary.
The gateway just uncovered opens in
ward toward the Church Of the Holy
Sepulcher, the massive pillars being
rabbeted on the western side. It is
nearly on a line with the two domes
of the church. thus opening almost ex
actly upon the present church, which
