DATE OF CRUCIFIXION FIXED
Interesting Calculations br Port
" " land Astronomer on Fsv
moos Event.
Prof. L. H. Weston of Portland, Ore.,
makes a very Interesting calculation, fix
ing the date o the crucifixion of Christ
on April 18 at noon, In the seventy-fourth
Julian year, or the twenty-ninth year A.
D. He doea It by computing the position
of the sun and moon.
According to Prof. Weston the full moon
occurred at 7:41, Jerusalem mean time, on
the 17th of April, seventy-fourth Julian.
This was a Julian Sunday, and was the
thirteenth day of the moon by the Jewish
calendar. It was a rule or law among
the Jews that the day began at sunset;
hence the calendar of Calllppus Invariably
called that day following the sunset Im
mediately after full moon the fourteenth
day of the moon and a Sunday (sun's
day.) Thus the full moon occurred at 7:41
In the morning of the 17th day of April,
Julian year, and that Tn the calendar of
Calllppus was the thirteenth day of the
moon, or one before" the fourteenth, and
was a Jewish holiday.
The Passover was always celebrated on
the fourteenth day of the moon next fol
lowing the solar Ingress into the first de
gree of Aries, the vernal equinox, and It
must always, by law, be celebrated on the
fourteenth day of the moon, as shown on
the calendar calculated by the priesthood.
In the Julian year 74 the sun entered
Aries at 26 minutes after 6 p. m. on March
22, which was a Tuesday. The new moon
following was at 1$ minutes after 1 p. m..
April I, a Saturday. Full moon then falling
on the 17th at 19 minutes to 8 a. m., shows
Tertulllan, the Latin historian, to be cor
rect In offlrmlng that the Passover feast
was on the 18th of the calends of April.
Again, says . Prof. Weston, modern eccle
siastical authorities on chronology find it
Impossible to assume that Christ was born
later than 4 B. C. and Tertulllan clearl;'
states the nativity occurred in the forty
first year of the Augustan monarchy and
the twenty-eighth after the death of Cleo
patra, thus In the 750th year of Rome, or
4 B. C, Christ was more than S2 years of
age, for His ministry began the third year
before the crucifixion. He was 83 years
old In 29 A. D.
Irenaeus says the crucifixion was at the
end of Daniel's seventy weeks of prophecv.
This ends about the commencement of the
sixteenth year of Tiberius and the second
year of the 202d Olympiad. More exactly
the sixteenth year of the reign of Tiberius
began on August 19. 74 Julian, and the
first year of the 202d Olympiad ended on
July 14. 74 Julian, and thla date also ended
Daniel's seventy weeks. But the cruel
flxlon was at the Passover, three months
before the end of the Olympiad. Irenaeus
used round numbers, and the fractional
year Is one-fourth minus. Accordingly,
says Prof. Weston, It would seem Impossi
ble to set any other date for the cruel
flxlon of Jesus Christ than Monday, April
18, Julian year 74, at noon (sixth hour)

PARK BOND ISSUE HITS SNAC
Proposition to Submit Bans Into
Technicality of Law.
TWICE TOO MUCH IS ASKED
City Attorney Says the Peoplo et
Omaha Aro Not Permitted to
Vote on 100,000 Proposi
tion at Any Time.
The demand of the Park board for sub
mission of a $100,000 Issue of park bonds Is
up against a snag. Under the law park
bonds may be Issued In the sum of $60,000
only at any one time. Twice the amount
legally permissible Is asked for by the
Board of Park Commissioners, but City
Attorney Burnam says that tha people
cannot vote for an issue of $100,000 at any
one, time, and, further. If such an Issue
were voted, it would not be legal. At Its
last meeting the commissioners decided on
a $100,000 Issue and their petition that this
be submitted to the people at the fall elec
tion was presented to the city council. The
petition was referred to tha council com
mittee of the whole.
The amended state laws specify that the
bonded indebtedness of the city must not
exceed 6 per cent of the assessed valuation,
but a number of bond issues are exclusive
of this limit. Among these are bends for
park purposes; for the purchase or build
ing of a city hall, fire engine bouses, gas
or electric light works, and subways or
viaducts, improvement, renewal and re
funding bonds.
The assessed valuation of the city la $137.

amount placed as a limit for the bonded
Indebtedness exoluslve of the expected is
sues, is $13,785,636. The present bonded debt
within the provisions of the law is about
$6,000,000, or about one-half as much as the
city can go in debt under the law, accord
ing to the comptroller. '
Bonds have been Issued this year In the
sum of $425,000. Paving renewal bonds were
Issued In the sum of $76,000, city hall re

WATCH FOR THE BIO SHOW
Halley's Comet on the Heovemly Ctr
ealt and Will Bo Vlalblo
Next nrtnsx.
"If you live until next spring yon are
going to witness one of the most magnifi
cent sights the heavens have ever dis
closed before our eyes." said a well known
member of the astronomical force at the
United States naval observatory In Wash
ington. "Halley's comet comes only once
in a lifetime, and many persons are born,
live and die without catching a gllmpss
of its marvelous dash of fire across the
skies. It was last seen In 1335, and few
persons now alive can say they ever wit
nessed It."
The astronomical world Is now on the
watch, and huge refracting and reflecting
telescopes are trained upon the heavens
from many points on the earth In a common
effort to locate the comet, which la ap
proaching the earth at a terrific rate.
There Is a friendly rlvarly to see which will
be the first to pick up the comet with their
mirrors.
The comet In its full refulgence Is not
due until 1910, but by spring It will probably
be near enough to be visible by naked eye.
In the past It has spanned the heavens
almost from horlson to hoi lion, covering
ts much as 100 degrees of celestial terri
tory, and standing out like a great living
thing of fire. It Is now somewhere off in
space, but not yet visible to astronomers.
They confidently expect some one to pick
it up before the end of 190ft, and after that
It will increase In splendor and size Until
It reaches Its nearest approach to the
earth, some time next spring, after which
it will disappear, not to be seen again Id
seventy-five years.
"Halley's comet has been visiting the
vicinity of the earth ever since M0 or 900
years before Christ," said the astronomer.
"Halley wss an Englishman, whose name
was given to the comet because he was the
first to announce that this particular comet
came near the earth at regular periods
once every seventy-five yea. He went
over the records, and by a series of com
putations found that what had previously
been regarded as a aeries of different
comets was nothing more than the same
comet, and that .this, the most magnificent
of them all. came around regularly once
every seventy-five years. That a as during
the latter part of the eighteenth century,
and Halley announced that this comet
would next appear In 1835. He never lived
to see It come, but his successors found
that his prediction came true.

will bring it toward us near enough for it
to be seen early in 1910. It has never before
been photographed, because photography
was Invented after 1835. Neither has the
spectroscope been used upon this comet,
this being another new Invention. The
telegraph is another facility not available
In 1835, and there was at that time nothing
like the great telescoplo lenses ef today or
the great forty-inch refractive telescope at
Terkes observatory, sixty miles northwest
of Chicago.
"With all these faollltles astronomers will
this time work In harmony and a commit
tee on comets was some time ago formed
for the purpose of reporting a plan for ob
serving Halley's comet. This committee
reported at the final session of the As
tronomical and Astrophysical Society of
America, at the Terkes observatory, on
Lake Geneva, Wis. ,
"A series of telescoplo photographs will
be taken at the Lick, Terkes, Naval and
other observatories in this country and all
the large observatories abroad, Including
those at Berlin, Vienna, Paris and Green
wich. We want to get a long series of
actual telescoplo photographs of this comet
on Its coming cruise through the heavens.
The comet will first be picked up some
where off in space by some photographic
telescope. We think w'e know just about
where the comet will make its debut, but
can't yet see it. The moment it ts found
the news will be flashed around the world,
"There will be no trouble seeing It with
the naked eye. It will illuminate the
heavens. We hare some early Chinese
prints representing It as a golden dragon
of the heavens. It will make a tremendous
splash of fire. After it once comes and
goes it will shoot awajr from the earth, go
ing as far away as Neptune, tha most dis
tant of the planets, passing all of the other
planets en route. Including Uranus, Saturn,
Jupiter and Mara.
