and in the regions west of the Rocky moun
tains, while the week has been cold over the
Rocky mountain districts and thence east
ward to the Mississippi valley, the greatest
departure from the normal occuring in
Western Kansas, Nebraska and Colorado,
where the daily temperature was from 6“
to 9' below the average of previous years.
THE RAINFALL.
“The precipitation during the weekj has
generally been in excess over tbe principal
agricultural districts east of tbe Rocky
mountains, in the Ne ar England, middle
and Atlantic stater, Ohio valley and south
ern states east of tbe Mississippi, tbe precipi
tation exceeded 1 inch, and in many locali
ties i elow these regions it ranged from 2 to
4 inches. The snow fall was unusually heavy

region, lower Michigan and the upper Mis
souri valley. From one-fourth to three
fourths of" an inch of rain was reported
from Califo nia during the week, while in
Southwest Oiegon and the eastern portions
of Oregon and Washington an excess of
rainfall occurred.
THE SEASON LATE.
“The season continues from one to two
weeks lata gmorally thr ughout the n .rth
orn states. Farm work is generally re
tarded on account of the snow and cold
weather in the spring wheat regions and
■now and heavy rains in the winter wheat
regions, although the general prospects in
the principal grain states are considered
very favorable. Exoessive rains in the
states of the Ohio valley, Tennessee and
Illinois have retarded plowing and plant
ing, but growing crops and fruit
are reported in excellent condition. Three
counties iu Illinois report “the fly damag
ing wheat,” but the other counties in the
state report the wt ather as favorable to
wheat and meadows. Indiana and Ken
tucky report grains and grass in fine condi
tion. and in Tennessee much corn, oats and
potatoes have been planted. The states of
the lower Mississippi valley report farm
work well alvauced; corn planting
nearly completed and|cotton planting in pro
gress. Excessive cloudiness and cool nights
have been unfavorable to early corn in tbe
west Gulf states. Loulsiaua cane in an
unusually fine condition. Alabama reports
the weather favorable; tbe ground being
prepared for cotton; oats in good condition,
•ad fair prospects for fruit.
IN THE SOUTHEAST,
"In the South Atlantic States and Vir
ginia excessive rains have proved unfavor
able, and planting has been two weeks to a
month late. In Bouth Carolina the rice
crop is in danger from overflow, and not
more than oue-half the usual acreage of
corn has been planted, and the projects
are gloomy.
."Reports from the middle Atlantic states
indicate that the weather has been unfavor
able for rapid growth, but grains and
grasses are in good condition and fruit ap
parently uninjured, lu New England the
weather was unfavorable for sugar making,
and but little plowing and gardening was
done iu the southern portions.”

THE fcENIENCE OF JESUS.
A Copy cf the Original Decree as Is
sued by Pontius Pilate.
From Xotet and Que ries.
A correspondent extracts from the Kol
nitche Zcitung what is called “a correct
transcript of the sentence of death pro
nounced against Jesus Christ." The follow
ing D a copy of the most memorable judicial
sentence wi.icu has ever been pronounced iu
the annals of the world—namely, that of
death against the Savior, with tbe remarks
that the journal Ijt Droit has col acted, the
knowledge of which must be interesting in
the highest degree to every Christian.
Until now we are not aware that It has ever
been made publ'c. The sentence is word
for word as follow.,:
•'Sentence pren unced by Pontius Pilnte,
intendant of the province of L >wer Galilee,
that Jesus of Naz ireth shall suffer death by
the cross. In the seventeenth year of toe
reign of the Emper r Tiberius and on the
35th of the month of March, in the most
holy citv of Jerusalem, during the pontili
cate of Annas and Caiapbas, Pontius Pilate,
i .tendant of the provide of Lower Galilee,
sitting iu judgment in the presidential seat
of the praetors, sentences Jesus Christ
of Nazareth to death on a cross
between two robbers, as the numer
ous and notorious testimonials of
the people prove: 1. Jesus is a mis
leader. 2. He has excited the people
to sedition. 3. Ha is an enemy of the laws.
4. He calls himself the Son of God. 5. He
calls himself falsely the King of Israel. 6.
He went into the temple followed by a
multitude carrying palms in their hands.
Orders: The first centurion, Quintus Corne
lius, to bring him to the place of execution,
forbids all persons, rich or poor, to prevent
tbe execution of Jesus. The witnesses who
have signed tbe execution agaiust Jesuit
are: 1, Daniel Robani, pharisee. 2, Johir
Zorobabel. 3, Raphael Robani. 4, Capet.
Jesus to be taken out of Jerusalem through
the gate of Tournea.”
The sentence is engraved on a plate of
brass in the Hebrew langusge, and on its
sides are tbe following w. rds: "A similar
plate has been sent to each tribe.” It was
discovered in the year 1280 In the oitv of
Aquill (Aquilla?), in the kingdom of Naples,
by a search made for the discovery of
Roman antiquities, ami remained thr until
it was found by the cammissarius cf art in
the French army of Italy. Up to the timo of
the campaign in southern Italy it was p-o
--served in tne sacristy of the Carthusians,
near Naples, where it was kept in a box of
ebony. Since then the relic has been kept
in the chapel of Casaria. The Carthusians
obtained it by their petitions that the plate
might be kept by them, which was an
acknowledgment of the sacrifice which
they made of the French army. The
Frenoh translation was made literally by
members of the commission of arts. Denon
had a fac-simile < f the plate engraved,
which was bought bv Lord Howard on the
sale of his cabinet for 2,SIX) franca. There
seems to lie no historical doubt os to the
autheuticity of this. The reasons of the
sentence correspond exaotly with those of
the gospels.
RELICS OF A HERO.
Liary of the King of Sweden on His
Visit to the Tomb of Charles XU.
From the Ctneianafi Enmirer.
On Aug. 31, 1859, another King Charles
stood b rrounded by some of the highest in
tho land in the Cathedral of Riddarholmen,
in the Carolingiau vault, by the side of the
open sarcophagus of his renowned name
sake. A conscientious examination corrobo
rated on this occasiou how groundless were
all the suspicions that our boro fell by the
hand of an assassin. Let us thank God for
the eortainty that bis life, so full of great
deeds, had a bettsr and, for him, more
worthy ending.
I, too, was fortunate enough to be per
mitted to glance at the remains of this re
markable man, before whom Europe < nco
trembled, end above who e 11‘inched tem
pos mourner il letro hies float high up iu the
dome, so eloquent iu thei • sileu *-, says the
King of Sweden in his diary. The mon ent
is as memorable as it was solemn, and me
features of Charles XII. ai-e deeply im
pressed ou my mind. Leave was given me
to break off a leaf of the laurel wreath
whioh shadowed his fcrhead, and to cut off
a lock of his hair in remembrance of the
day.
To these treasures I can add two more
symbolic of Charles, namely, one of the
trusty swords with which h so often fought
his way to victory, and his Bible, from the
pages • f which he derived those precepts
that impart strength in all vicissitudes, aud
whioh are si beautifully expressed iu the
famous old war crv of the Carolingians—
••With God’s help.”
THE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY, MARCH 29. 1891—TWELVE TAGES.
ANNUAL REPORT
OF TH*
LOUISA PORTER HOME
FOR THE FRIENDLESS,
To-day we are brought to tbe sixteenth anni
versary of our institution, and tbe managers of
the L ulsa Porter Home submit their annual re
port to tbe public, with grateful acxnowb-djc
mrn.ta to <-ach and t > all who bare in any way
anted us in tnia iar reaching charity.
During the past year the immediate work of
the home baa been somewhat charged, the
board Lavm. adapted tbeir work to tea needs
which have presented themselvea. Tna addi
tion of another story to our building has given
us nme additional rooms, which have bean
neatly end comfortably furnished. A memo
rial room has also been furnished by a member
of the board, as tbe great need prereoted
itself to us for a comfortable home for young
working girls, at a moderate rate of boar!.
regu.ated by their salaries, we have util
ized these rooms in this way. offering t era at
such a moderate rate that this worthy claas
of young workers could realize something from
th-ir labors after tbeir month's expenses were
met. We are giai to report success In this
undertaking, haring bad our rooms occupied at
tbe moderate rate of from $4 to $8 per month
for room and board. Our efficient matron baa
proven bersetf quite equal to the undertaking,
anu we bare under her >uperrision a grateful
and happy family, whoso comfort and happi
n as it is tbe de6ire of the board of managers to
promote, giving them, after their day's work is
done, a borne with such surroundings as will
prove both comfortable and elevating, and in
every way helpful. We have also eight children
under our care-bright, promising girls, who
attend tbe public schools and are good scholars
in their claasea In the afternoon they are
taught home industries.
We have also anew department addad to our
work, having opened a day nursery in one of
the adjoining buildings to the home. Mothers
can send their young children to tne nursery,
leaving them during the day under the care of
a kind and competent matron and an able as
sistant, and return for them at n ght, the chil
dren to be fed and cared for. A woman cat
thus go into service or do days' work, laboring
for the maintenance of her children while they
are well cared for and protected. A sick woman
also, needing hospital treatment, but having
young children whom she cannot leave, can send
them to the nursery to be cared for day and
night temporarily, or until the mother is re
stored. \ve have found thin, too, meeting the
needs of some burde ed mothers, and have quite
a family of happy little ones shelter© i In the
nursery. We have spoken very particularly of
these departments, beeause we desire the com
mu- ity.to be informed of our work, that each
and all may minister to our success by making
our work known to the needy ones who cross
tbeir path.
Tho county commissioners'fund for the city
poor is sti.l committed to us for distribution.
We gratefully acknowledge thetrustcommitted
to ns We do endeavor to “do Justly and show
mercy’’ in these distributions, but in this de
partment wo arc met witu many difficulties and
discouragements. Our city has greatly in
creased its population, and the poor are in large
proportions. The amount to be distribute I has
not increased witn the population. And how to
make tbe supply divide itself to meet the de
mand is the monthly probl mto be solved And
we often turn away hearts ck and weary from
the wan faces, eager eyes and outstretched
hands of the last crowd that come to us for
help. We would gladly give more to each
worthy applicant, but the demand is too great
to do more than to give a little help to each.
Wo hope if we are to continue thia distribution
that the commissioners will at some time not
far distant find themselves in condition to re
spond favorably to our oft-ropeatod appeals for
an increas -d appropriation for the city poor.
The ladies of the board give their personal
attention to the pure: aslng and distribution of
the clothing and the giving out of wood tickets.
Our raontnly committees visit personally all
cases reported, and try to be just and discrimi
nating. as well aa considerate and kind. We
hope we have made our work clear, and that
the simple statement ef these facts is all that is
necessary to recommend this very general
work. All denominations ore represented in
our beneficiaries, and all alike share the benefits
of our institution. The board of managers at their
meeting in January last determined to aban
don in the future the annual charity ball as
a source of revenue, and In Its stead unite their
efforts to Increase their subscription list. We
have a number of faithful subacribars enrolled,
at a subscription of $2 a year, but there is need
for more; and it would be very gratifying to us
to have those of our generous and sympathetic
citizens, to whom the work oommends itself,
who would be co workers with us send us
their names to add to our subscription list.
'Blessed is he who considereth the poor.”
Our Hank* and acknowledgments are uue for
numerous donations and contributions: To the
county commissioners, for the fuud to the city
poor; to Dts. Charlton, Owens and Aiken, for
medical attendance; Boiomona A Cos., for medi
cines; to the Central railroad ar.d Savannah,
Florida and Western railway, for half rates on
tickets; to merchants, for deductions on pur
chases; to Mr. Hirscb, for use of telephon e and
many favors; to Mr. Carson, for use of carriage
whenever nee ed; to St John's Rectory Society,
