DATE OF CRUCIFIXloN FIXED
interesting Calculations by Port
land Astronomer on Fa-
nous Event.

Prof. L. II. Weston Of Portland, Ore,
makes a very interesting calculation. fix
ing the date OF the crucifixion of Christ
on April Is at noon, in the seventy-fourth
Julian year. or the twenty-ninth year A.
D. He does 1t by computing the position
OF the sun and moon.
According to Prof. Weston the full moon
occurred at TAI, Jerusalem mean time, on
the nth Of April, seventy-fourth Julian.
This was a Julian Sunday, and was the
thirteenth day of the moon by the Jewish
calendar. 1t was a rule or law among
the Jews that the day began at sunset;
hence the calendar of Callippus invariably
called that day following the sunset I'M
mediately after full moon the fourteenth
day of the moon and a Sunday (sun's
day.) Thus the full moon occurred at 7:41
in the morning OF the 18th day of April,
Julian year, and that m the calendar of
Callippus was the thirteenth day Of the
moon, or one before the fourteenth, and
was a Jewish holiday.
The Passover was always celebrated on
the fourteenth day OF the moon next fol-
lowing the solar ingress into the first de-
gree of Aries, the vernal equinox, and IL
must always, by law, be celebrated on the
fourteenth day Of the moon. as shown on
the calendar calculated by the priesthood.
49, SNAeA JNoi ~ NV sun
Aries at 26 minutes after 8 p. m. on March
%, which was a Tuesday. The new moon
following was at 10 minutes after 1 D. m,
April 2, a Saturday. Full moon then falling
on the nth at 10 minutes to s a. m, shows
Tertullian, the Latin historian, to be cor
rect In offirming that the Passover feast
was on the 18th OF the calends of April.
Again, says Prof. Weston, modern eccle-
s%iastical authorities on chronology find It
impossible to assume that Christ was born
later than 4 B.. c., and TertulIian clearl"
states the nativity occurred in the forty
first year OF the Augustan monarchy and
the twenty-eighth after the death of Cleo
patra, thus in the 10th year of Rome, or
4 B. c., Christ was more than 80 years of
age. for His ministry began the third year
before the crucifixion, He was 80 years
old in 20 A. d.
%Irenaeus says the crucifixion was at the
end of Daniels seventy weeks of prophecy.
This ends about the commencement Of the
sixteenth year OF Tiberius and the second
year of the 202d Olympiad. More exactly.
the sixteenth year of the reign Of Tiberius
began on August 10. "A Julian, and the
first year of the 202d Olympiad ended on
July IA, "A Julian. and this date also ended
Daniels seventy weeks. But the cruel
fixion was at the Passover, three months
before the end of the Olympiad. ~Irenaeus
used round numbers, and the fractional
year is one-fourth minus. Accordingly.
says Prof. Weston. 1t would seem impossi-
BILE to set any other date for the cruel
fixiOn of Jesus Christ than Monday, April

The demand Of the Park board for sub

up against a snag. Under the law park
bonds may be Issued in the sum OF $4,000
only at any one time. Twice the amount
legally permissible is asked for by the
Board of Park Commissioners, but City
Attorney Burnam says that the people
cannot vote for an issue of 500. 900 at any
one time, and, further, II such an issue
were voted, It would not be legal. At its
last meeting the commissioners decided on
a $1OO,OOO issue and their petition that this
be submitted to the people at the fall cleo
ton was presented to the city council. The
petition was referred to the council COM
mittee of the whole.
The amended state laws specify that the
bonded indebtedness of the city must not
exceed 5 per cent Of the assessed valuation,
but a number of bond issues are exclusive
Of this limit. Among these are bonds for
park purposes; for the purchase or build
