1 Copyright, 1S99, by D. M. Stearns.] 2S. "Then led they Jesus from Cainpluus unto the hall of .judgment," In Math, xxvii. it is written that tlioy led Him away and delivered Him to Pontius Pilate, tlie governor. Some of these self righteous people, with murder in their hearts, would not enter Pilate's house lest they should be defiled, for they desired to eat the Passover. They did not know that the true Passover Lamb was being put to death by them and that their Passover, like their Sabbaths and all their feasts, was a mere form—a husk without a kernel, ehaff in be burned up. What is your religion:-' In what do you trust? Is it in some church or creed or ceremony, or is it in Jesus only and His precious blood?

L1!), !). "If lie were not a, malefactor, we would n«t have delivered Him up unto thee." This from them in reply to Pilate question, "What accusation bring ye against this man?" It is easy to call I-Iini an evildoer, but impossible to prove it. hey must, however, say something, and having yielded themselves to the devil he will suggest many a lie to them. In all His life He never said or did a wrong thing except in the eyes of those who hated Him. He knew no sin. 81. "Take ye Him and judge Him according to your law." Thus said Pilate, to which they replied, "It is not lawful for us to put any man to death." So they confess that they have determined that He must die, and they only desire that Pilate will attend to it for them. It would not do for them to say how long ago they had made up their minds to kill Him as soon as possible. It might show their hearts toward Him too plainly. If it was unlawful for them to put any one to death, how was it that only a'little later they found no difficulty in stoning Stephen? •i~'. "That the saying of Jesus might lie fulfilled, which ITe spake, signifying what death He should die." The Jewish mode, according to their law, was stoning, but Jesus had said that He should bo crucified (Math, xx, 11 ). This was typified by the serpent of brass lifted up on p, polo (Num. xxi. John iii, 14) and was plainly described in Ps. xxii, 10, "They pierced My hands and My feet." The law said, "Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree," and Christ hath redeemed us from tlie curse of the law being made a curse for us (l)eut. xxi, 23 Gal. iii, 13). 33. "Art Thou the King of the .Tews?" Pilate's question to Jesus when He entered the judgment hall again. The wise men from the east came with the inquiry, "When- is Ho that is born King of the Jews?" The prophets had foretold a Messiah who would sit on David's throne as King of Israel (Math, ii, 2 Isa. ix, (i, 7 Jer. xxiii, 5, 0 Kzck. xxxvii, 22), but what did Pilate know of these things and why did he nsk this question? Were not the Jews subjects of Cajsni'? 34. "Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of Me?" Of corn-so Jesus knew why he asked it, for Ho knew what is in man. lie knows the things that come into our minds, every one of them (John ii, 25 Ezok. xi, C). He had a reason for asking Pilate, for He does nothing without a cause (Kzek. xiv, 23). 85. "Pilate answered: Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered Thee unto me. What hast Thou done?" It is unusual to have prisoner and have no charge against him. and unusual also to see the judges, as in the case of C'aiaphasand Pilate, asking the prisoner to tell what he has done. Was ever seen on earth such a travesty on justice as in this ease? !(. 'Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world." How often this word of Christ is used to try to prove that our Lord shall never have a kingdom on this earth except, that which He is now said to have in the hearts of men—a very poor sample of a kingdom truly, judging from the lack of subjection to Him everywhere manifest! But one might as well say that the believer has no business on earth because he is not of this world. That is the very reason that he is here—in the world, but not of it, that he may glorify God in it. His origin is not earthly, for he is not a child of God until born from above, and Christ is here speaking of the origin ol His kingdom, as He Himself explains in the last clause of this verse, "Now is M.v kingdom not from hence." It will be as truly a kingdom on this earth as was Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece or Rome, but it will not be set tip by force of arms, but by tho mighty power of God, the same that brought Israel out of Egypt, divided the Red sea and the Jordan and subdued Canaan before them. 37. "To this end was A born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth lieareth My voice." Thus Jesus replied to Pilate's question, "Art Thou a, king, then?" ITe was the truth, sent by tiio God of truth, filled with the spirit of truth. Yet we are called upon to spend three weeks in this eighteenth chapter of John, full of a record of the works of the devil through Judas and the rulers Caiaphas and Pilate and even Simon Peter, and the wonderful words of truth in chapters 10 and 17, some of the most wonderful words on record, we are asked wholly to omit. 38, 39. "I find in Him no fault at all." Such was Pilate's testimony again and again. Judas also confessed that iie had betrayed innocent blood (Math, xxvii, 4). Pilate's wife called Ilira a just man and urged her husband to havo nothing to do with condemning Him. But Pilate had Him on his hands and must either condemn IJ im or release Him. The latter ho wished to do, but. had not the courage to do it. He hopes for away out of his difficulty by suggesting that as it was his custom to release unto them a prisoner at

Passover he should now release unto them Jesus. As an alternative he mentions a notable prisoner named Barabbus, probably thinking that, ho being so wicked, the people will not ask to J^avo him released, but will at once choose Jesus. He knows not the destroyer who was behind the scene that day, nor did ho know that he himself was making choieo between God and satan. 40. "Not t\s man, but Barabbas." Thus they deliberately chose a murderer and rejected the Princo of Life. They preferred darkness to light and satan to God. They did what they always had been doing as a nation since tlicy were brought out of Egypt—turned their backs upon their Redeemer aiid leaned upon an arm of flesh, for when Pilate said, "Behold your king!" they cried, "We have no king, butCiesarl" (John xix, 14, 15.)

ROUGH RIDERS' REUNION

"Boots and Saddles" to Be Sounded at Chicago In October.

There is to be a remarkable reunion of Roosevelt's rough riders in Chicago early in October, the occasion of the autumnal festival there when the cornerstone of the new postoftice will lie laid, and there will be a four days' celebration, at which President McKinley and manj" men of national reputation are expected to be present.

Tlie general committee of the Chicago festival lias agreed to pay the transportation to Chicago of all members of the famous regiment from all parts oi the Union, and committees have already communicated with a sufficiently large cumber to insure the success oi the reunion.

It is probablo that when President McKinley arrives in Chicago on October 7 his escort of honor will bo the rough riders, 600 or 700 strong, under command of their old leader.

A committee representing the Chicago festival managers called upon Governor Roosevelt a few days ago and ob tained bis hearty approval of the plan Horses to mount the men will be provided by the Chicago stockyards, and application has been made to the adjutant general for the use of bridles and saddles.

Captain Woodbury Kane of New York lias now interested himself in thi plan and, with others of his old troop, is arranging to get together tlie rough riders of the eastern section in preparation for the festival reunion. Elliott C. Cowdin, sergeant of Troop Walter W. Price and several others are assisting him. Major George Dunn is the head of the committee in Washington, and Lieutenant Keyes, who was regimental adjutant: Lieutenant Carr, Ford Thompson and others of prominent1" there are working with him. In Chicago the entire contingent of the rough riders who enlisted from that city, with Lieutenant Horace Weakley at their head, are engaged in communicating with all of the rough riders in the west and southwest.

It is the intention to quarter the liien in the Sherman and Tremont hotels. The men will be mustered in their old troops, and the hotel corridors will be like troop streets in camp. The New York delegation, which will cover the eastern section of the country, will leave New York on Oct. 5. The festival is to open on Oct. 7 and continue during Oct. S, and 10. It is expected that the president will arrive on Oct. 7.

The plan is to make Oct. 10 "rough riders' day," and to have the happiest sort of a reunion of the men of the famous command. It is believed that between (i00 and 700 of the men will reassemble in Chicago.—New York Herald.

WORKED WITH BROKEN ARM.

I'jiiKineer. Hit liy I.Svi-i-, Makes Forty Miles In iix Many Minutes.

With his right arm broken by the reversing lever, David Smith of Cainden, N. J., the other afternoon brought tlie Reading mile a minute express train, of which lie is engineer, safely into the station at Atlantic City with 300 passengers on the train. He was bent double with pain, but clung to his post, refusing to allow the fireman to handle the throttle in violation of the train rules.

The flier left Camden at 2 o'clock and was due in Atlantic City in 70 minutes. At Winslow Junction Smith slowed up his train for the crossing. The reversing lever failed to catch in the cog and flew forward, breaking his arm below the elbow. He was flung to the floor of the cab. His fireman happened to see him fall and. finding him conscious, propped him in his seat, where Smith ran the engine with his left hand for 40 miles in 40 minutes, reaching Atlantic City on time.

In the station the passengers learned of the accident and cheered Smith lustily. Smith walked three blocks to the hospital and then fell from pain and exhaustion. Smith has been railroading for 10 years and has a family in Camden.— New York Sun.

Latest Fashionable Term,

Gowns and hats are stylish no more, they are "swell." It is the adjective expressing highest praise of an article of wearing apparel. The dressmaker with rooms in the avenue and the small miliner in a side street agree that the choicest of their wares are "swell," which means, of course, that they are of a nature to please rich women, or "swells." It is odd that some astute merchant does not see the advantage of using it in the announcement of his store's attractions. If the term could be coaxed into slightly more general use, the women might insist upon a finer name for thenisi.Ives than "swells." It is hard to distinguish them otherwise since we have stopped talking of the "Four Hundred" and the "young bud," and years ago of the "elite." At present it is society's own name for the sort of men and women it cultivates.— New York Cor. Pittsburg Dispatch.

ItatliH Forcibly Administered.

Hot coffee, soap and a bath are now being served to every hobo arrested in Columbus before he is admitted to appear at police court. The hoboes take kindly to the coffee, but they object to the bath. If the "boes" don't like it, they are scrubbed by force.—Cincinnati Enquirer.

Thick Lips and Thlu Ups,

The old popular notion that thin and delicately formed lips indicate more spirituality and elevation of charac-. ter than do thick, coarse lips is controverted in the Paris Bulletin of Anthropology by Dr. A. Bloch, who say» he has made a thorough study of the subject of lips from a scientific standpoint. The popular impression, he avers, is based on imagination, and the differences in human lips depend on race distinctions, as do the differences iti tbe giza and cliaDB
