Killed by His. Hog. 2
IFrom the Philadelphia Times.I

l-.4ti a5s IFfom the Philadelphia Times
Henry Ward, who lived at the cor
ner of Moyamensing and Snyder, Az
enues, met his death In a horrible form
yesterday afternoon. For some months
past he had had In his possession d
large hog, which was during the day
time allowed to run in the back yard.
During the night it was kept in pen
In the northeastern corner of the yard
Some days ago the hog developed am
ugly disposition and protested by vi
clousa grunts its aversion to ecnfne-
ment. Several times it turned on it's
owner while being driven to Its pen and
had TO be subdued with a club. Yes
terday the animal became unusually vi
cioas and attacked every one who came
near. A dog that was set on the brute
in the hope that he would drive it to
the pen was routed and narrowly es-
capped death by scaling fYe-foot pick
ct fence. 60 '' ~
Mr.. Ward returned home at two
o'clock and undertook to drive the hog
into It's pen. The beast trotted sullen-
ly ahead until within a few feet of the
gate, wnen it turned, and, with vicious
snort, charged on it's owner. The man
tried to beat it off with stick, but was
overpowered in. an instant. The hog
reared itself on its hind feet and, throw
ing Its weight against the man, bore
hlm to earth. lit then sprang on him
with It's front hoofs drawn closely to-
gether, and before the prostl ate man
could recover his footing The hog had
made CHASTITY wound in his abdomen
with Its teeth. The wounded man was
soon rescued by some neighbors, but
bled to death before medical assistance
arrived. The hog was killed with an
axe.

CrimsOned by the Frost.

Waterbury took their before breakfast
walk on Friday morning, says a New
Haven dispatch, they were astonished
to see the foliage of the trees present.

changed part of their budding green.
for a fringe of scarlet. All day Friday
curious seekers focked to the woods
near Waterbury to behold the marvel.
When the SUN came out in the after
noon, most of the leaves gradually lost
their tinge of crimson and became
green. In the cooler parts of the woods.
where the shade was dense, the touch
of frost remained. asiss esil =. l;.qi III f,s.
On Saturday morning.. after the
severe frost of the night before, hun
dreds of people went to the woods 10
see whether nature would repeat her
freak. The change was even greater
than before. Those leaves which had
not regained their green color ON Fri
day afternoon had become entirely
bronzed, just as happens on ,snappy
November nights. Nearer the open
spaces the hHes were brighter. Red
and dark brown combined to make part
of the trees look as if they. had been
tramsplanted from some land of perpet-
ual October. 'i.'ia'l'i'''11'is7 = =
On the outskirts of the woods, where
the sun had entirely demolished. on
Friday afternoon the work the frost had
done on, Thursday night, the later cold
snap had replaced the tinge of red on
the borders of the leaves. In several
other parts ofthe Naugatuck Valley the
frost had a like effect, only not, as
strongly marked as near Waterbury.
The people are trying to find some way
of preserving specimens of the phenom-
email leaves. James L. Isenberg, Smith

several others have some of them.

that his testimony was considerably
shaken. The chief clerk of the MUIR
dered man was then put on the stand.
and to the questions put by M. CASTOR,
it was learned that no blood had been
found on the floor below the one where
nj. Bertrand's body was found, and
Richet had testified that the prisoner
had struck his head on the counter.
The officer who first discovered the
prisoner testified that on the spot where
Gourard's head rested there was great
pool of blood M. CASTOR then called
the surgeon who testified that the
wound on the head of Gourard could
not have been made as Richet had
sworn -that it was inflicted by a club
or some heavy instrument.
With this evidence the young lawyer
rested his case, and it went to the jury.
The jury retired, and after an hours
absence returned into the court room
with verdict of not guilty. The great,
and rich reward of M. CASTOR was the
almost frantic JOY of the mother and
son.
"The God of the widow and orphan
has sent you to us, sir, in our distress,
and His blessings will descend upon
you through all your days." 2t5
"Some day I shall reward you," said
young Gourard. The glittering drops
which stood in his eyes evidenced his
great gratitude. And thus the mother
and son took their leave of their gener-
GUS benefactor.
Years rolled on; the coup d'etat of
December 2, 1861, had made ana un-
made many. M. Pierre CASTOR had de-
voted all his energy and eloquence
against an Usurper. But, like many
others, he had been crushed. His
great practice in the law, that he had
been years building up, had been swept
away, as had been his fortune and his
friends. AS he sat one day in his own
dingy Office, bordering over his misfor-
tunes and crowding his brain for some
means to obtain sufficient sum with
which to start again in ife-for he was
still a young mana gentlemanly-ap-
pearing man entered. -..--.,..

whom he had defended years ago. r..

ed his benefactor that he was well-to-
do wine merchant; that fortune had
smiled upon him and given him pros

he rose to take his leave. a7ss sest

Life in a Monastery.
From the st. James Gazette.

..',+ "a from the ST. James Gazette.
The Irish vice-chanceIlor resumed
to-day, in Dublin, the hearing of a re-
markable case, in which some interest
ing disclosures were made as to life in
a monastery. The plaintiff, James Ma.
grath, formerly lay brother in the
monastery at Mount Melleray, near
Cappoquin, proceeds against his
brother John to set aside a deed of the
9TH of June, 1879, which, he alleges.
was obtained by fraud and undue
means. The plaintiff, by the deed, as
signed his property, which was eonsid-
cradle, to his brother, and then entered
the monastery and remained in it
eleven years. The rules of the monas-
terry were severe, inmates being de-
MED animal food and obliged to live
solely on vegetable diet. The plaintiff,
In consequence fell into I'LL health, and
was reduced to state of mental de-
preston and bodily illness, and he be-
came careless of worldly affairs. He
expected that he should soon die. and
prayers were offered up for him at the
monastery but it was now commended
that when in the state of debility de-
scribed he was induced by the defend
ant to execute the deed in question.
leaving all to him. The plaintiff in the
wltness-box said he attributed his i'll
health to the austere life he. led in ac.-
cOrdance with the rules of the monas--
terry, where he was employed in paint
ing. Sometimes his power of speech
and sometimes his reason were affected.
The monastery belonged to the Cister-
clan order. On entering it he did not
make a VOW Of poverty. The only Vow
he made was in this form: Reverend
father, [ promise you obedience until
death." His father paid a fee of G2O0i
for his admission, which was returned
when he quilted the monastery. The
plaintiff was examined In reference to
the will he made bequeathing his prop
erty to the monastery. He said that
the abbot asked the whole of the in
mates in public chapel to execute wills.
and said that they would run the risk
OF committing a mortal sin if they did
not do so. The will in favor Of the
monastery was drawn up and handed
to. him for signature, and he signed it
without reading it. Counsel for the
defense submitted that the plaintiff
was man, who had retired from the
world, and there was not tittIe of evil
denee that he had been imposed. on.
The defendant now supported the
plaintiff. The case is proceeding.
