DIabolism in Nevada.

10 THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
You published in your last Sundays issue q few
words from the Freenan's Journal concerning the
spirit manifestations IN Nevada. The writer desg-
mates the whole affair as ''unmstak ably diab0li-
cal" Now the Freeman's Journal commits na-
grant lmpropriety, to put 1t in the mildest manner
In giving expression to any such opinion. II Ill
becomes the writer to give his humble opinion In
the way he does when the Rev. Father Monagne,
Vicar General OF his diocese, VINO with one OF Two
other priests was present when the above manifes-
tations took place, deemed them worthy 81 !.s ms
most serious attention. He has since commitsed ,
presented to his bishop for his consideration. Be-
ndes, there is not a single answer given IN reply
10 any one question which Is not in accordance
with the Catholic faith, and to stgmatize the oc-
rurrence as being enthusiastically diabolical" shows
a want OF sense and no lack OF presumption.
Trusting that the Ffeenas's writer will be more
cautious for the future, and will think before he
teaps again, remain yours. M. A. l..

IA reporter IN u graphic description makes us
acquainted with the dramatis persona. They are
N the whole about half a dozen. -Four OF them are
acting; one is introduced for scenery's sake, and
hastily there is one, who apparently has nothing to
do with the main crimical action ''sheeny Billy"
= mentioned only on account OF his, by no means
landable liaison with the fororn vcum In this
tragedy. Now, is IL not very curious IN yonr re-
porter, that, whilst as to the chez actors IN TINS
foul play not the slightest allusion is made as to
what religion they belong, this last one, VINO plays
q comparatively innocent part among the rest, ls
introduced to the public with the very improper
Semark, "The fellow Is Jewf" II was to draw
DrOm this very remark OF y0ur reporter conclu-
SION on the influence OF the difierent denOmina-
dOns on criminal statistics, the result would evil
dently be favorable to Judaism; but far from me
and from any sensible person to Judge Of the value
OF religion by the misdeeds OF those who go astray
from il. Intolerance Is little in accordance with
the enlightened spirit OF your journal. The more we
are surprised when we meet in 1t narrow minded
expressions as the above. and the more we feel
called upon to censure them emphatcally. Re-
spectfuiy yours, Rev. DR.. A. HUEBSCH.

A Photograph Romance.

ME days of romance are not altogether
II passed away, says New York letter
to the Boston Times; if a story that heard
yesterday is true. 1t was a case of love at
first sight, or rather of love before the
sight A gentleman, who has an abundance
of that agreeable article known as money,
which he has no inclination to spend in a
wild life, had made up his mind that he
wanted to marry. He was acquainted with
no lady to whom he wished to propose, and
so he waited for the desired creature to
come around, as great many people tell us
she is sure to do some day or other.
Happening one afternoon in photograph
gallery, he saw package of cartes de visite
lying on the counter, where they had been
temporarily placed. He gazed intently at
the uppermost picture pacake, and conclu-
ded that it was just the picture that suited
him.
"May ask" he said to the attendant
behind the counter, "the name Of that
lady?"
her name," was the reply. "But, even ii
was not so, could tell you nothing more
than the name, as | know nothing about
her, not even her residence. She camo
here last week and ordered dozen pho
tographs which are promised for to-mor-
row."
The stranger returned thanks for the in
formation and walked out. But he watched
the door of that establishment all the after
noon, and every time lady approached he
eyed her to see if she was the original OF
the picture. He was at his post next day,
and the next, and on the third afternoon
he was rewarded by seeing her. He follow
ed her as she went away, and after wear
isome tramp among dry goods stores and
millinery establishments, he tracked her
home.
Then he went to work to ascertain who
she was, and found that her pa
rents were entirely reputable people, in
moderate circumstances, and that the char
acter of the lady herself was above the
slightest reproach. Then he sought the
the father, stated his object, gave the most
undoubted references and did not call again
till the old gentleman had examined them.
He was introduced, and you can easily
guess the rest, No cards.

tS- Two women in Detroit quarreled,
and one OF them of an original turn of
mind, got parrot and taught Polly to say,
"you thief" whenever her enemy passed
by. Not to be outdone, the other fair
belligerent also got a Polly, whom she
taught to scream "you dye your hair"
whenever the enemy came in sight. Finally,
the judiciary was appealed to, and botl,
the parrot guns were spiked.

tB- A captain, who had a sound sleeping
mate, caught an Irish boy in the middle
of a watch frying some pork and eggs he
had stolen from the ships stores, to whom
the captain called out, "You lubber, you,
I'll have none of that" "Faith, captain,
I've none for ye," replied the lad.

thrown away his scythe, so sweet. SO
beautiful they seemed.
Thus in happiness and content the old
clock measured the days and years OF the
little girl; nightly it counted the hours
which brought TO her rest and pretty
dreams, and all day it was the attendant
on her pleasures And now the winter
had come again; out in the garden the
red and blue flowers were gone; OF the
white roses only the snow flakes on the
bushes reminded you. On the side of the
hill the children darted like birds on theil
swift sleds, but the little girl was not
among them Her sled was idle and hel
little blue hood hung upon the wall. The
house was still, and the old clock slowly
and mournfully licked as if reluctant TO
reach the hours In the great armchair
by the fire the grandfather sat, holding the
little girl on his breast; she was as pale as
the snow. and thin, and her blue eyes were
closed. Only her faint breathing and the
sobs of the old man and the slow ticking
Of the clock were heard Now the breath
inp became fainter, and the grandfather
lifted his eyes to the clock, but could not
soc II for his tears Thus the three re-
NAMED together as the day waned and the
darkness entered the room. \ thrill
passed through the little childish form,
and the grandfather bowed his head and
prayed Then in the strange and sudden
silence the distant town clock tolied the
hour. bu, there was no answer in the
room. Time was dead for the little girl.
and the old clock had stopped.
