The Greek verb is in the imperfect tense
and implies that he repeatedly reproved
him. John was bold and fearless. He
faced the king personally. "Why John
reproved Herod.: 1. Herod's course was
bringing untold evils upon the people. 2.
John could not effectively denounce the
sins of tbe people if he lets sins in
high, places go unreproved. 3. Unrobule-

shows that Herod did not hold the Sad-
ducean doctrine that there is no resur-

in the mmortality of the soul and the
resurrection of the dead. The dactrine of
the resurrection was commonly ace.ept-

dead he ie thought to be poesessed of

Bradstreet's on Trade.
Montreal. -Trade conditions here and
In .the surrounding country continue
satisfactory in all lines. Wholesale dry
goods houses report a good movement in
general sorting lines, and there has been
some improvement in the city retail
trade during the past week. Tweeds are
advancing and prints are expected to go
higher. Groceries are moving fairly well,
a feature is the continued firmness in
all lines of canned goads. The demand
for heavy metals and hardware continues
brisk, and for all kinds of building mo.-
terials there is a steadily increasing
enquiry. Ingot tin holds strong, and
antimony is higher and scarce. The de
-
mend for iron is moderate, and prices
are steady. Light arrivals of wools are
coming forward and the market is
steady.
Toronto. -Trade generally continues
active in all lines. Favorable weather
throughout the country has attended
seeding, and country retail trade is show-
ing more activity. Wholesale trade
ranges from fair to very good. Orders
from the west are heavy, and from now
on large shipments will be going out.
The wholesale dry goods business is
brisk. A big retail trade is springing up
in carpets and housefurnisbings general-
ly. Values are firm. Travellers report
a bright outlook for the retail dry goods
trade in the country. Sorting lines of
groceries are moving well and hardware
continues exceedingly active. An enor-
mous increase in the value of building
permitis here and in the west generally
promises continued activity along the
line of builders' supplies.
London. -The satisfactory trade outo
leek in the country has restated in a
better trade movement here.
Ottawa. -There is some improvement

GAS BUOY EXPLODES.
Sensational Affair in Halifax Harbor-
Matine Officials Alarmed.
Halifax, alay 7. -The explosion of an
acetylene gas buoy of the Marine De-
partment in the harbor yesterday has
caused some anxiety aming marine offi-
cials as to the condition of all gas buoys.
The buoy, a combination gas and auto- •
matie, was in tow of the Government
steamer Lady Laurier, which was -tak-
ing. it to Bei Island, where it was to re-
place the whistling buoy there at pres-
ent. As the steerner went ahead, the
headway forced the upper port of the
bame• under the -eater, and just as they
were off the Wood:elle refinery there
was an explosion. A cloud of black
smoke ascended in the air, and the buoy
di -appeared. The upper portion went in
the air in pieces, which scattered over
a wide aree as they fell.
