Peter put himself in the way of temptation. 1L Jesus witnessed against (vs. 59-62). 50. All the Council -The great Sanbedrin, composed of seventy or seventy-two members, and founded, it is supposed, by Mesas (Num. 21), and was continued a Jong time after the days of our Lord on earth. At this time Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea were probably ab- sent (Luke smile 50, 51). Sought false' witnees-They have a criminal 'without a crinse. They dared not sentence Jesus to death without some satisfactory charge and thee they ever° obliged to search for witnesses. "It seems to have been a common custom of this vile court to emp16- false witnesses; see Acts vi. 11-13."--C1arke. .At 'least two witnesses were necestarr (Num. xsozo. 30; Dent. forsaken, betrayed, denied, without com, forters, without counsel, without a de- fense. Our hearts grow indignant But have we never forsaken Ilan? IL See our Saviour slandered. "Sought false witnesses" (v. 50). "efany flame witnesses came (v. 60). It is not necessary to stand in court ona swear to a lie to be a false witness. Every one who joins a Christian church with the thought of benefit in his business, or (apses a church home for social stana- ing, is a false witness. Every one wbo stands at the marriage altar impelled by any other motive than pure love, is a false witness. Every bit of chicory in the coffee, every bit of sand ilx the matte, every light weight or small meas- ure, is a false witness. The spirit that will put fair, large apples at the top of the barrel and. entail, rotten ones be- neath, that will sell balf cotton goods for all silk, is the spirit that will lead to perjury and blasphemy. The spirit that will allow poor material to be used in a building at the risk of human life that wilt put water and cha3k into milk used by poor little children, is the shme spirit that witnessed. falsely to condemn Jesus. III, See the Saviour sinless. "Found none found they none" (v. 00) Christ "knew no sin" (If. Con v. 21). He "did no sin" (I. Peter ii. 22). He was "without sin" (Hell,. ha 15). Truly, it was a hopeless, herculean task to .find stain upon the character of God. So all through the centuries men have sought for witness against Christ as the world's Saviour, against the Bible as an inspired honk, but have not found one solid argu- ment, not one truthful testimony against Christianity. IV. See your Saviour silent. "Ile held Inc peace" (v. 03). They slandered Jesus, they hired men to witness falsely against him, they spat in his face, they buffeted him, they mocked him, they In alai» 6S.

Found none -They had great diffa pressed the cruel thorns on his brow, culty in making up a csse against Jesus. they uttered vile blasphemies against Out of the many false witnesses who came before the council, it was Impos- sible to find two who agreed (Mark xiv. 56). Came two -From Mark xiv. 57-59 we see that. the testimony of theee wit- nesses did not -agree in all points, and this aceueation if ti,,ereed upon would not be sufficient for a death sentence. False- hoods seldom agree; only the truth is harmonious. False witnesses -Their tes- timony was fa.e because the facts were net correctly stated (see Mark xiv. 58), and because Christ's words had been mis- apnea. This is etill a very common way of injuring others. 61. This fellow said -Here they are obliged. to go back to the very beginning of Christ's public ministry and. pervert a statement that He had made aft. He first cleansed the temple (John ii. 19). I am able, ete.- Jesus had never said this. What He did say was, that if they would destroy this temple, in three days Ile would. raise it up, but He had reference to the temple of His body. 62. High. prieet...said- Their ease had failed, and now the high priest arose and tried to force Jesus to criminate Himself. Answerest thon nothing -There was nothing to say. lthe witnesses had contradicted theinseivee. Give the enemy time and opportemity and he will destroy hia -own cause. HT. Jesus deelares Himself to be the Christ (VO. 63, 61). 63. Held His peace -Thus fulfilling the prophecy in Ise. Mi. 7. Jesus knew they were determined to put Him to death, and a reply would have been useless. I adjure thee -The legn priest, piste a solemn oath to Sum. "Tire difficulty of this -question consisted in this: If He confessed that He was the Son of God, ,they stood ready to eon - ileum Him for blasphemy; if He denied it, they were prepared to condemn Him for belog an importer, and for deluding the -people under pretense of being the Messiah." -Barnes. 64.

IV, Jesus condemned and maltreated (see 05-08). 85, Rent Idle clothes -An expression of violent grief (Gen. xxxvii. 20, 34; Job i.20) and horror at what wag eoneidered to be blasphemous or int- pitins.

Biaspitemn-They coneid- ered. it blasphemy, forereette to any that He was the Christ (Mark xiv. 61 62) him, but "he held hie peace." Ni one single wend fell from his lips. The silence of Jesus was: 1. Vicarious. 2, Merciful, 3. Prudent. A godly life is the best 'reply to frivolous or false ac- cusations. 4. Patient. One sentence from his -lips could have destroyed all his enemies (v. 53).. V. See your Savious speaking. "Jesus saith thou hest seed" (v. 64). When one word is questioned we may well be patiently silent; when God's word is assailed we may be bold to speak. An English lady was once con- fronted by an infidel, who demanded how she knew there was a God. She replied, "If you had appealed to a per- son you had never seen'of whose ex. istertee you only knew by report, for a thouiand pounds'and he had responded by sending you the money, would you not knovr that Stleh a person must be a Heine reality?" "Yes," he said, "1 think I dotal" "Well," said she, "I made an appeal to God for that very sum, and lie gave me the exact adnount I asked for without my having to appeal to anyone else but himself. I therefore know that he exists." The rnan changed counten- ance and tinned away without ttnesver- ing. VI. See your Saviour sentenced. "He is malty of death" (v. 66). "They all conilemned him to be guilty of death" (Mark eiv. 64). They condemned him not on false testimony, but for his own true word. The witnesses they labored so hard to find did not "agree together" (vs, 56-59). His death was voluntary. A. C. M. • • es FATAL EXPLOSION. ONE MAN KILLED AND ANOTHER HURT AT CHATTANOOGA.

At least a half dozen others were eadly hurt. The storehouse was entirely destroyed, the coaling station badly damaged, sev- eral cars were burned, and. the windows in the offices and for some blocks around were broken by the force of the explosion. This ex.plosion shook every beading in the eity, musing the greatest alarm. It is impossible to estiruate the property eamage at this hour.

FINANCIAL REVIEW. • New York. -Election agitation and gtrin- gent money rates put another damper on the atock market's activity. Had it not been for tho generally satisfactory conditions ex- isting outside of Wall street, these two factors might easily have caused a considerable de- cline in Stock Exchange values. 'As for the momentary situation, rates continuo bigb, and were additionally stiffened by the tem- porary 'withdrawal of funds for the Novem- ber interest and dividend payments. It is useless, however, to look for easy money during the remainder of 1906. In spite of the great increase In circulation and In the supply of gold, there is still an insufficiency of currency to meet the wants of the country. Prima geperally are too high, and costs of all sorts aro correspondingly enhanced; not only costs of living, but costs of manu- factureand production generally. In some eases values have already reacbed the point at which buyers either will not, or cannot, afford to go beyond; in •which eases such tnaritets must come to a deadlock unless concessions aro made. Agricultural products are generally bringing Isiah prices; conse- quently, more money Is required to move them to the market and Carry them until consumed. FinIsbed products are exceeding- ly high and the same rule hold good there; the eamo also applies to the ctock market. now long this state of affairs is likely to lot is beyond prediction. If you cau only steer clear of a financial crisis in Wall street and keep values down to the normal, the present activity in trade may continue indefinitely. Our money market is still in an unsatisfactory condition. Little is known of the trust company situation, and still less Is known about our borrowings abroad; moat that a material curtailment has been enforced as a result of the recent action of the Bank of Ungland.-Henry Clews & Co.

COURT OF APPEAL UPHOLDS TOR- ONTO MAGISTRATE'S DECISION. • Toronto, Nov. 5. -Three out of Deo Judges of the Court of Appeal have upheld tho con- viction against S. Saunders and others for conducting gaming houses at the Wood- bine race track. These three Judges bave expressed their opinion that betting booths such as have existed at the 'Woodbine tall within the tOrrns of tbe section of the crim- inal code prohibiting gaming houses. In ef- fect tbe decision is tbat in future there caa be no betting In booths at any raco track In this country; though no restraint has actually been placed on the act of betting tisself. Mr. Justice Gamow, One of the two dis- senting Jadges, expressed the opinion that the object of the legislature- has apparently been to reserve race courses of Incorporated associations as places where betting migilt take place without the participants being subject to any 'penalty. Ozi this account be thought any move to eliminate such bat- ing had better be made through the Legis- lature. Chief justice Meredith thought that the conviction should be quashed boom e the defendants were not the keepers of dis- orderly houses in the facts as related. The decision svill doubtless be taken to the Su- preme Court, COUNTESS COMMITS SUICIDE, Becomes Mentally Deranged Osving to Illness of Het Husband, Rome, Nov. 3. -The Countess Pao - line Corrb.do of Bergamo has com- mitted suicide by throwing herself into the River Adda.

It is her own pro- perty and consists ssf a legitimate wage for her services as a teacher of Christian Science and the legitimate profits on her books.
