But before He can bestow that gift which will be of more value than silver and gold. He must forestall the deadly criticism of tha Pharisees, which He knew to. h, lying In wait for. him. It la not necessary to suppose, as some do, that the sick man had been- plac ed. In Jesus' way with a malicious purpose. ' He waa there, and the critics. of the Maater saw their op portunity. They seemed to hav Him coming and going, for it waa a desperately, bad case, and He might tgnomlnlously fsil of a cure; and If He succeeded. He would, in his very success, have flagrantly violated the Sabbath. ' Jesus manfully takes the Sabbath- desecration horn of the dilemma; for He lntenda to heal the sick man. He springs Hla snare In His categorical question, "Is It allows ble to work a cure on the Sabbath-day, or not?" Ac tions speak louder than words. Jeeus answers His own question by an In stantaneous and compleet cure of the sick man. After this benevolent parenthesis He clinches the nail which He had driven In HI first ffuestlon by asking another: "Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fallen Into a pit, and will not straightway pull him out on a Sabbath-day?" Amid ominous silence the prescribed ablutions are attended to, the festive cloak from the host's own wardrobe Is thrown about each guest, and at length the bcnquet-hall la reached. Now Is witnessed the disgraceful scramble for place at table, as for the chief seatn In tho Hynagogue. Al though a concrete act Is specified, ref erence Is In fact to the subjective state of which the act Is a true ex pression. The doing of the deed (for example the taking of the lowest place at table) without the appro priate subjective state would either be destitute or significance or It would be an Instance of hyprocricy. .

Entering with the happy party to the high social function. He saw and paused and helped the un fortunate. How sweet to believe with our dear Quaker bard, Whlttler: "Warm, sweet, tender, yet A present help is He; And Love has still its Olivet, And Faith Its Galilee. The healing of tho sea miens dress Is by our bed of pain. We touch Him In life's throng and press, And we are t whole again." - The irrational literalism of th Pharlse never had a more complete expos than in that chler of Phari sees' vestibule.

" Byer ley turn out to bo a clerk in th accounting department of the. Ameri can Express Compnay, up on the top floor. ' Ho has been there a great many year at a comparatively small salary, and Uvea at 42 Central Park West. Ever since thax bid for th bonds were announced last Saturday Wall Street haa been trying to leurn some thing about Mr. Byerley and haa been speculating aa to the Interest behind his bid. . Byerfey was not Inclined to answer any queatlona yesterday after he had been located. Th treasurer of tha American Express Company 'said: "This Is entirely a personal matter with Mr. Byerley, who Is on, of our clerks. There la absolutely nothing In the rumor that he represent In ternals In the company." Byerley haa alrhoM. taken th breath away from some of hi fellow clerks. He had a host of callora yes terday, who wanted to know how he could afford to bid for $5,800,000 of rovernment bonds, but. ilk a real magnate, he hud nothing to say. Tho general opinion among- those In the American Express Company's office la that Byerley i taking a little tiyer, which haan t cot him anything more, tangible ao far than nerve. Under the term of the aalo no money need be put up until August 1. Byer ley mad four bids. For one million of the bonds ho offered 104.120; fur the second million, 103.990; for the third million. 10S.975, and for 12. 811,680 he offered 103.647. The New York syndicate that got one-half of the 610,000,000 bonds put a price on them yesterday of 104.40. It was ciphered out by the bond experts yesterday that should Byerley sell his option ut 101 he would clear 83,850, without putting up a cent save for the positive xtamp which cvarrled his bid to Washington. Byerley, It was learned yualenlay. was once a clerk In a bank in Cali fornia. His bid has aroused no end of talk In Wall Street, and there are some bankers who have expressed the opinion that hereafter a certain percentage payment should be made when bids are filed, as in the case of city bonds. One banker said that he believed this rule would be adopted as a result of Ryorley's bid. There was a report In Wall Street yesterday that Byerley was endeavoring to sell his option. He got Icavo yesterday at the express office to go out for an hour or two on private business. It was said yesterday that some of the big bond houses were holding back In tho belief that they would get some of his bonds eventually through his Inability to put up the cash on August 1 Nevertheless, Wall Street guties thnt the clerk will mako good. In 1890 Abraham White, clerk In a broker's office, on his own hook, bid for a big block of bonix and matld a profit of $100,000. An a rexult of his bid a rule was made by the Treasury Department tliitt a rash payment must accompany nil bids. This rule obtained until this lnt bond Issue, when It was either over looked or suspended by Secretary Shaw. SAGE INHERITANCE TAX. Albany Authorities HsiirliiK That New York State May Receive $3,000,000 From It. Albany, New York Dispatch. 24th. It Is believed that the largest amount of inheritance tsses ever re ceived from a slnirlo extuto in this State will accrue from the estate of the late liunsell Sage. If the estimate of $100,000,000 as the value of the entate is ,rrect and If Mrs. Soe Is to have $50,000,000 am th rest H1 to go to the heirs, the Slate may re- j celve $3,000,000. of the property, ...i ui- wiuim, m.n n 1 per cent., of that which goes to other heir the State gets S per cent. If the estate Is worth $100,000,000 and It all goes to Mrs. l-'iK" the State will get $1,000,000. If Mrs. Sage feu $50,000,000 the Ktnto will get 500,000 f n m her and $2,600,000 from the collateral heirs, making the total amount the State lx to receive $3,000,000. If the estate. Is worth only $50,000,000 the St a to will possi bly get $1,000,000. The largest amount of Inheritance taxes ever received from one estate In this State come to the State treasury In 1903, following tho death of Warren B. Smith, in Westchester county. His entate returned a tax under the tranxfer law of $1,024,597. The amount from the Haga estate will make a big Increuae In the sum In the State treasury available for canal expenditures and other large expenses and will prove most ac ceptable to the State administration In continuing Its policy of no direct tax levy upon real estate.
