OF jesus
OF Ndzdr6th

The following is taken from a
manuscript now in the possession
Of Lord Kelly and in his library.
1t was copied from an original
letter of Publius Lentulus at
Rome. 1t being the usual GUS
tom of Roman governors to ad-
wise the Senate and the people of
such material things as happened
in their provinces, in the days of
Tiberius Caesar, Publius Lentu-
lus, Procurator of Judea, wrote
the following epistle to the Sen
ate concerning our Saviour:
There appeared in these our
days man of great virtue NAM
ed Jesus Christ, who is yet liv-
ing amongst US, and of the Gen
tiles is accepted as a Prophet Of
Truth, but His own disciples call
Him the Son of God. He raises
the dead and cures all manner of
diseases. A man Of stature, some
what tall and comely, such as the
beholder NAV both love and fear.
His hair is the color of a chest
nut full ripe, plain to His ears,
whence downward it is more
orient and curling, and waving
above His shoulders. In the
midst Of His head is a seam, al
partition in the hair after the
manner of the Nazarites. His
forehead is plain and very deli
cate; His face without spot or
wrinkle, beautiful with a lovely |
red; His nose and mouth so
formed that nothing can be re-
pretended; His beard thickest, |
in color like His hair, not very |
long, but forked; His look inno- !
cent and mature; His eyes gray, !
clear and quick. In reproving !
He is terrible; in admonishing
courteous and fair spoken; pleas !
ant in conversation, mixed with |
gravity. It can not be remem-
bered that any have seen Him
laugh, but many have seen Him
weep. In proportion of body !
most excellent; His hands and
arms most modest ana Wise-a
man for His singular beauty sur
passing the children of men"

To Capture Ports
Of 6ntry First

Ell Paso, April 15---It is certain
that the latest move of the in
surrectos and Francisco A, Ma
dero is to capture q number of
the border towns, especially the
ports of entry. The capture of
Aqua Prieta is said to be only
one Of the several similar attacks
to be made.
Reports of a skirmish today
twenty-five miles from Juarez

REBELS IN
CONTROL OF
MEXIChN CITY

Aqua Prieta, Mex, April 15--.
The revolutionists under Red
Lopez today hold this town which
they captured yesterday after a
three hours battle with the Mex
lean federal troops. Reinforce
ments are expected by the insur
rectos, who intend holding their
advantage at almost any cost,
The town is an important point
and the insurrectos hope by keep
ing it to secure recognition of
belligerency from the United
States.
Further fighting is expected.
One American in Douglas was
killed and eight wounded, one
mortally by bullets yesterday. The
loss to the engaging forces was
about equally dividedand amounts
to Is dead and so wounded. Two
federal officers and 20 men fled
across the international line,
where they were disarmed by
American troops, and Capt.
Guajot of troop K, first cavalry,
crossed the line with a message
to the remaining federals from
their officers, telling them to sur
render. This they refused to do
for some time, but finally con-
sented with an agreement Of the
insurrecto commander 10 surrend-
er to the American soldiers and
for their Arms to be turned over
to the victorious rebels, Addi-
tional dead are being found in
out of the way places.
Thousands of Americans stood
on the border witnessing the
fight, seemingly careless of their
danger. Fourteen Americans
fought with the insurrectos, and
one, J. C Edwards Of Virginia,
was killed.---El Paso Herald.

1t seems to me that the editor
or manager of the Daily Herald
is suffering from congestion of
his gray matter; I see in his issue
of April 14th he accuses the
Morning News of being a Socialis-
tic sheet, and it would seem that
he arrived at this conclusion from
the fact that a tax payer centri
buted a few lines for this parti
cular paper. We do not know
whether or not this makes Speck-
mann's paper Socialistic, but we
do know that most any old man
can be a tax payer and not be a
socialist; and again we claim that
it would be no disgrace to be both
