THE vI0LrN's VOICE.
A Pathetic Story Of n Muaieian and a
Dying Child.

A Pathetic Story Of Musician and
..4. Dying Child.
The Dark Angel Of Death was standing
outside the musicians door, for little Anita,
Maestro Narditti's child, was fading away;
no tears, no prayers could avail, not even
Christmas lovely voice.
Carissima's voice was hushed now; the
Maestro had no heart to take up his dearly.
loved violin and play to soothe his sorrow,
as he had done many years ago when his
wife died and left this little one behind.
Heaven had given him the divine gift oil
genius and had hidden him call aloud 10
the world. So Carissima and he had
played together through sickness and sor-
row and success, and through all the chang.
ing scenes Of lie they had been faithful
friends.
They had Just come back from the crowd.
ed hall; the people said that never before
had the Maestro played so beautifully, and
that never before had the violin's voice
sounded 80 mournful and pathetic.
Well, you see, they did not know the
reason, but we do, for both were thinking
Of the little dying girl, and how could their
thoughts be anything but sorrowful, or the
outward expression Of those thoughts be
anything but mourpful?
The father was weeping by his child's
bedside. But she said: "Do not weep,
sing to messing me to sleep, for J. am so
weary, dear father, and the evening has
been 90 long without thee"
Then he rose and he played to her, and
she closed her eyes and listened happily to
Carissima's voice. 1t sang song without
words-the music alone told the tale-of .
pure young life, too pure Tor earth, and
therefore to be taken away to that fair land
where only the good and pure and true
dwell. Yet 1t was hard to leave the earth,
harder still to leave the dear ones behind,
and to know that they would be desolate;
and here the yiolin's voice sobbed and
trembled as II from sorrow, and the melo-
dy became sadder and softer, as II describ-
ing the very parting which was soon to take
place; then the lingering notes died away
and the Maestro's hand was still.
els that all?" murmured the child; "oh,
play again!"
Once more he raised his bow on high,
and the air resounded with psalm Of tri.
umph-the same melody, but no longer
soft or cad, for the gates. OF that Fair Land
were opened wide, and amidst this jubi.
liant strain the child had passed away with
the Angel Of Death.

CONFLICTING CL1IlfS

1t is seldom that a Judge of our Supreme Court is
called upon to consider So many intricate questions
OF European aud International law as are involved
in the case of Canon Leon Bernard, the defaulting
custodian of the diocese of Toumai. To make the
story integbe must go back some years, when
NJ Dumont was Bishop OF the diocese. He was a
man whose eccentrlcity bordered on insanity, and
he seems have become embrOled in series of eccle
slastical sduabbles until ultimately deposed by the
Pope. The Anti-Clercal party in Belgium were de-
lighted at the scandal and did all in their power TO
foment it, They took the part of the deposed
Bishop. who carried on his side of the quarrel with
tenacity whlch delighted the Liberals but scandal
lied the Church party. Meantime NJ. du Rousseau
was appointed to the bishopric An inquiry took
place into the management OF the finances, and it
is charged on the part Of Canon Bernard that when
il became apparent that the funds of the diocese
might be wasted in law or escheated for other than
ecclesiastical purposes, Bishop du Rousseau ex-
pressed a wish that the fund in question might be
put beyond the operation of the Belgian law. The
Canon's case is that he made of with the property
not with the intention of stealing 1t, but in order TO
protect tho fund for the benefit of the poor
of Journal, for whom it was intended.
How far this story is true will be tested in the
trial of tho Canon, 81 Ort!y to take place. The
Canon all ges that for safe custody he placed the
property III safe at deposit company III TINS
city, where 1t was seized by the Sheriff. To the
fund IN question there are now five claimants The
King of the Begans representative OF the State,
claims that the amount be returned to the JurlSdlc-
ton of Belgium, 10 be dealt with according
to the law Of that country. The Bishop Rousseau
CLAIMS tho amount as Bishop of the diocese. He,
however is under direct order of the Court At
Journal recently delivered, TO desst from any
claim on the fund here and permt its return to
Beleiu1n The Bishop declines to do any act tanta-
mount 10 a surrender of his claim, but is Willing
that NJ Bourgeois, the receiver OF the court should
take possession or behalf OF all parties The amount
is ais claimed by Bishop Dnmont who has taken
proceedings to set aside his deposition Canon
Bernard put in a claim the ground that part Of it
is his own money; that the papers found with the
bonds contain his private correspondence with
Bishop Rousseau, and form tho ground of his de-
fence. And finally the money is claimed by NJ
Bourgeois, the receiver appointed by the Court at
Journal
The difficulty in the situation is whether our
c"urls can recognize the nterlocutory order of the
Belgian tribunal appointing receiver This would
involve the questions of the proper constitution of
that suit and the Jurisdiction Of the Court. But

assassination as q mode of relief In our own
Revolutionary War the murder of few Tory
officials at the outset would have given enor-
nous advantages to the rebels; yet so antago-
nstic was such an idea to the Anglo-Saxon
mind that it never was entertained. The
negro slave in the South with all his wrongs
never could be induced to plot against his
masters life; nor was this cOwardice, for ne
was brave enough to die in the trenches In
open battle for his liberty but, let it be said
to his credit, he had not the cowardlce 10
strike an assassins blow Mt defenceless man.
Even the Sepoy massacre was an open
outbreak in the face of English bayo-
nets. The Irishman alone plots in secret, forms
assassination circles and exults in crime.
What is the cause of the steady, unmistak-
able deterioration of the race? Idlenessf

leaders7 Whatever it be, it is time that Irish
men who have come to this country should
look ut methods of assassination in their true
light. These murderous organizations are alb
hOrrent to the character and life OF our peo-
pie, and no man has right to contribute
money, under the name of an American, to
any Irish fund, unless he knows precisely
what will be done with 1t, and that it will not
be used in purchasing boOdshed.

Our Excise Board has allowed itself TO DE per
shaded to issue licenses to some of the West
resorts in the most vicious quarters OF the
city-resorts whose reputation and character
were so Infamous that previous licenses had
been revoked, and for long time these
slums were refused the protection OF
the law. We do not hesitate u
say that Excise Commissioners Fnedsam'
Hart and Mitchell have disgraced themselves
and dshonored the city by granting ncenSes
to some of the dens of depravity which are
crowded every night with the scum Oh our
cutters. By such outrageous acts as these
they forfeit their claim to the respect OF thelr
fellow citizens, and no such wretched attempts
at explanation aud defence as are made III their
behalf put their cause in a better nght.
And Mr.. Assistant District-At orney v byrhe
cuts a pretty figure in this matterl W mat
sort of business is it for an official III his
position to be engaged in-counsel, defender
and indorser for a woman long notorious as a
keeper OF one of the most depraved ana
despicable places of assembly on any part VI
tbis island. II was chiefly at Mr.. OByrne 3
urgent appeal that her license was gran'eu'
We have had occasion to tell MI Mcheoh
before that his Office neeueu Cle"""s
Evidently he cannot do better than to DeSln
with Mr.. O'Byrne.
1t is the old shameful story in these Excise
abuses and outrages. One department tries TO
shove the responsibility on another Con-
fronted with the record of the places they
have licensed, and with the proof oil the
existence of large numbers OF unlicensed
dram-shops, the Excise Commissioners whine
that the Police Department is in fault. And
the Police Department will say now, as IN the
past, that the Police Justices are to blame
The Police Justices will try to put the burden
OH the District-Attorney's Office and the Cen
eral Sessions Well, no doubt they are all
responsible. Their blunders and failures, their
sins of omission and commission, have been
pointed out again and again. But no one OF them
will plead guilty. There is a sad lack OF
honesty and manliness in some of our depart
ments They have a sneaking way OF gong
wrong, and then trying to lie ont of it. And
yet no amount of lying can blind the eyes OF
clear headed men TO the rottenness OF our ex-
else system as now mismanaged. Nevertheless
the day of reform seems far off.
