Franz Mnte len of the German army, ono of the moat notorious Teutonic plotters and uples now confined in tho federal pent tcntlnry at Atlanta. Accompanying tho proposal was the throat that un less Rlntelen were llhorated and per mitted to return to Germany, the government would adopt "appropriate monsurcs of reprisal," providing that "persons ho taken nnd made to suffer because tho government of the United States was apparently not sulllclently cognlznnt of Its International obliga tions towards a German suhject."

NEBRASKA SETS PAGE Cornhusker Stato Leads Entire Coun-( try In War Activities Saunders County Hangs Up Record. Very few states In the union are In the same class with Nebraska when It comes to raising' funds to curry on the various war activities that are so essential to the government. Nebras ka leads all other states In the sale, both cush and otherwise, of war sav ings certificates. It has more Red Cross members per population than uny other state and stands near tho top In the hale of Liberty bonds, Y. M. O. A. and other war work. Two of Nebraska's ardent war workers, Ward M. Burgees, state chairman of war pavings, and Frank C. Bulltn, his as sistant, hnvc been called to Wash ington to aid the government. The great record this state has made in Bed Cross work Is due, to a large' degree, to the untiring eiTorts of State Director Frank V. Jettison of Omaha. When nil reports are In It is expected that the total subscrip tions In the last drive will more than double the state's allotment, and that every county will show Its quota ex ceeded. The one glittering spot In all the great achievements with which Nebraska Is credited Is the record made by Saunders county In wnr re lief work. A total of ?i:ui.:m has been collected for relief purposes In the county since June 1, 1017. In 11)10 Saunders county had n popula tion of 21,170.

The aggregate amounts were $2,:i7.i,:ilS for the first stv months, In IfiO Issues, compared with $1,-172,1!).", In eighty-nine Issues, for tho six months ending June 1. Politicians tit Lincoln say It Is practically certain that tho Nonparti san league In Nebraska will not at tempt to put a ticket Into the field nt the coming election. The great amount of opposition which lias sprung up against the organization In nil parts of Nebraska, Is believed to bo the cause. The olllcer.s of the state G. A. It. have selected the Burlington-Northern Pacific route for tho trip by spe cial trnln to Portland, Ore., for the national encampment in August. It Is expected that about fiUO will go.

The grand climax of the year's les sons thus far Is reached In this one. If the slgnllleance of the cruclllxlon Is not apprehended, all the lessons thus far are meaningless. It Is not n mut ter of learning lessons taught by n great teacher, or Imitating the example of a great and good man, but of ap prehending the vicarious atonement mtide by the wot Id's Itedeemer. Christ saves, not by his ethics, but by his shed blood. Ills death was purposeful and absolutely voluntary. I. Jcsuo Arralrjncd Before Pilate (vv. 1-15). In the early morning, nfter the mock trial before the high priest, they bound Jesus and delivered him to lilnte. They net freely In this according to the evil desires of their own hearts. II. Jesus Crowned With Thorns (vv. 10-20). Knowing thnt Jesus had been con demned for claiming to lie Israel's king, they In mockery crown him with a wreath of thorns, and salute him "King of the Jews." Not only this, but they smote him on the head und spit upon him and went through a process of mock worship. The crown of thorns typifies the curse which he bore for man's sin. III. Jesus Crucified (vv. 21-11). 1. Led nwny to the place of crucifix ion (vv. 21-2II). At first they compelled him to bear his own cross, but when physical weak, ness made this Impossible, they com pelled Simon tho Cyrenlnn to benr It for him. It Is beautiful tn note thnt the son of this Cyrenlnn who bore tho cross of Jesus came to believe on him (Bomnns lG:l!i). Because of the scourging and cruel Indignities heaped upon him, they actually were obliged to bear lilm to Golgotha. Ills face was marked by the thorns and cruel blows, so thnt there was "no form or comeli ness" (Isn. 53:2). All this he endured for us. He drank this bitter cup to Its very dregs nnd refused to drink the "wine mingled with myrrh," which would have deadened his pain. Ho went all the way In his sufferings. 2. Gambling for the clothing of the Lord (vv. 21, 25). Having nailed him to the cross they gambled for the seamless robe under the very cross where he was dying, nnd In their henrtless cruelty they sat down to watch him die (Mntt. 27:30). 3. The superscription (v. 20). It wus customary to place over the victim on the Cross the name nnd crime of the offender. Though Pilate did this In mockery to vex the Jews, the title was absolutely true. He was Indeed their King. They had long looked for him, and now when he came they crucified him. Though he wore n crown of thorns in derision, he will come again wearing a crown of glory, and before him all shall bow. God hasten the day 4. Between two thieves (vv. 27, 28). This added to his shame. Ills Identi fication with two robbers was the ful fillment of the Scripture "Numbered with the transgressors." 5. Thodylng Suvlor reviled (vv. 20 32). This reviling was engaged In by :he passers-by, the chief priests nnd the thieves who were crucified with him. In this nameless agony nnd shame they taunted him by bidding him come clown from the cross, nnd de risively saying, "He saved others, him self ho cannot save." They uncon sciously uttered n great truth, lie could not save himself nnd others, so he chose to die to save others. Halle lujah, what u Saviour I (I. Darkness upon the land (v. 33). This was at noonday. So shocking was this crime that nature threw around the Sgii of God n shroud to hldo him from the gaze of u Godless com pany. 7. Tho cry from the Cross (vv. SI S'). What awful anguish when God lnld the world's sins upon his beloved Son! When the price was fully paid. Jesus dismissed his spirit. No one took his life; he gave It up. Ills death wus un like thnt of any other. 8. The rent veil (v. 38). This symbolized tho gllng up of his life (Heb. 10:20). 0. The centurion's confession (v. 3'J). 10. The lingering group of women (vv. -10, -11). They who had lovingly ministered to him In life were waiting to see where they could bury his precious body. IV. Christ's Burial (vv. 42-47). Loving hands now take the precious body and lay It In Joseph's new tomb. This man who did not consent to the foul treatment of tho Lord now risks his reputation, and by his action mokes n bold confession of tho Lord. The slnleso Son of God Is placed in a now tomb.
