three of them tell of the rent vail in
the temple. Luke fails to mention the
gambling soldiers, but tells of the

John only tells how Jesus committed
the care of his mother to the beloved
disciple.
The seven sayings of Jesus on the
cross are as follows:

= IN THE, SUNDAY SCHOOL. =
= (By w. P. Chambers.) .

On that morning in spring when
Simon Of Cyrene, coming in from the
country met a procession on its way
from the palace of the Roman gov
ernor, to the city gate, he was doubt
less surprised to see so small num-
Der of criminals on their way to exc
cution, followed by such multitudes.
There were only three of the male
factors, each bearing a cross, two
common robbers and a peasant. And
yet they were accompanied by vast
crowds of people, among whom were
many grave and dignified members. of
the Sanhedrin. as well as the rabble
that usually followed such PROFESSIONS
3ut a closer inspection of the feloL :
showed that one at least was no ordi-
nary convict going to shameful
death. His clothes, plain of texture
and suited to peasant, were torn,
mud-spattered and blood-stained. and
in great disorder. On his head was
a crown of thorns., many of which
had been cruelty pressed down into
the flesh, and his noble countenance
was SO marred by streaks of blood
and human spittle that it presented q
most shocking sight. And when the
slender form stumbled and fell under
the heavy burden. almost at Simon's
feet, the Roman officer commanded
the sympathetic spectator to take up
and carry the cross himself. From
such command there was no appeal,
and SO they reached the place of cru
cifixion.
This followed the six trials Of Jesus
The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1908-05-23

which came in the following order:
1. The informal trial before Annas,
as we studied last Sunday.
2. The irregular trial before the
Sanhedrin under Caiaphas, before day
light. Jesus being put on his oath,
testified that He was the son of God.
for which he was condemned as a
blasphemer.
8. The formal trial by the Sanhe-
drin, after sunrise to ratify and legal
ize what had already been done.
A. The trial before Plate, where
he was accused of sedition and being
strife maker. The evidence not be-
ing sufficient to convict, Pilaate sent
him to Herod.
5. The trial before Herod, who also
acquitted him.
6. The second trial before Plate,
where by every unfair means, as well
as by direct threats, PLATE was in
duced to order his crucifixion.
To construct a cross. two, pieces
of timber were needed, one of which
was some ten feet in length. Near one
end of this and directly across it was
fastened the middle of the other piece
of timber, which was about six feet
long. To cruelty a person, was to
place him on his back on the longer
section of the cross. His arms were
stretched as farsas possible. and with
rough, large headed nails his hands
were securely fastened to the shorter
beam, the nails being driven through
the hands from the palms. His feet
were also. nailed to the longer beam.
Then the cross was raised up. and
the foot or lower end was dropped into
a hole dug for that purpose.
A block of wood was fastened on the
upright beam ass kind Of saddle. bur
