ST ALBAN, MARTYR

Alban was O citizen of Verulan a man
of distinction, who, himself q pagan, had
been to Rome in quest of knowledge.
When the last great persecution, under
Diocletian, broke out, Alban sheltered In
his house q priest who was fleeing from his
enemies. He was so affected by the piety
of bis guest that he eagerly received his
teaching and became Christian. In few
days it was known that the prieet lay con-
cealed in Adams house, and soldiers were
cent to seize him. Thereupon Alban put
on the priests garments, and gave himself
up to the soldiers in his stead. The Judge
was irritated at the escape of the priest, and
threatened Alban with the EXTREMIST tor
ments if he persisted in forsaking the false
gods of Rome. The saint replied firmly
that he was a Christian, and would not
burn incense to the gods and was con-
demned to be fret tortured and then be-
headed. AS he was led to the place of
execution, an eminence outside the town,
q miracle wrought by the Saint 30 touched
the heart of the executioner that he flung
down his sword, threw himself at Alban's
feet, avowiDg himself a Christian, and
begging to suffer either for him or with
him. Other miracles marked the death of
the proto- of England. When the
persecution ceased a church was built on
the spot; and later on, the noble abbey of
St. Alban's was founded by king Offa.
When Albsn was brought before the
judge, he was asked, "of what family are
you Z" The Saint answered, "That is q
matter of little concern know that am .
Christian" The judge persisted, and the
Saint said, "I was called Alban by my pa
rents, and constantly adore and worship
the true and living God who created all
things." Then the judge said, "If you
wish to enjoy the blessedness of eternal
life, delay not to sacrifice to the great
gods" Alban replied, "These sacrifices
are offered to demons, and can bring no
help, or answer to the desire of the heart.
They who offer them receive as reward the
undying punisbments of hell.

ST. ALoYsrUs GoNZAGA.


st. Aloysius, the eldest son of Ferdinand
Gonzaga, Marquis of Caetiglione, was born
on the 9 n of March, 1868. The first words
he pronounced were the holy names of
Jesus and Mary. When he was nine years
of age he made VOW of perpetual virgin
ity, and by special grace was ever ex-
empted from temptations against purity.
He received his first communion at the
hands of st. Charles Borromeo. AT an
early age he resolved to leave the world,
and in vision was directed by our
Blessed Lady to join the Society of Jesus.
The Saints mother rejoiced on hearing his
determination to become q religious but
his father for three years refused his con-

after two years and went through the

and he was accepted for the dangerous

WASHINGTON, April 2s.-some of Mr.. Glover's
assistants have evidently been throwing dust into
his eyes i'll regard to their own records as devel-
Oped from time to time by Republican witnesses be-
fore his committee.
Yesterday Mr. Glover summoned newspaper cor
respondent to make answer for one of his dispatches
about these assistants aud confronted him with a
long list of questions which had been prepared with
which TO confound the Witness But instead of
overthrOwing the statements of the dispatch which
related to the curious smuggling job alleged to have
been set up in Canada and New-YOrk by Moore and
Bell the witness. who had seen the papers in the
Treasury Department gave Mr. Glover the details
as heretofore published. He said in addition that
after Mr. GlOvers assistant Moore in bis former ca
pacity Of Treasury agent, had caused goods to be
purchased in Canada with Government money and
to be snuggled into New-York, he then turned in
former, and had the goods he had thus smuggled
seized and sold, and collected nfOrmers fees upon
them. He said further that in the formal informa-
tiOn Moore filed he declared the goods to be the prop
erty of one Charles b. Spencer. when he well knew
that this was the false name assumed by Bell
who was acting as his confederate in the Job.
The next feature of the examination had for Its
object the establishment of an accusation made by
assistant Moore that papers relating 10 himself had
been stolen from the Treasury files The result in
this case, as in the former, was to embalm in the
records of the House the story that Moore had tried
to fix false charge of murder Raymond II.

and Imprisonment in Texas.
