Poisoned at the Altar.

The Sicilian journals report the con
clusion of a remarkable trial in Catania
Two years have elapsed since a grea
crime was committed at Corlentini. A
priest named Failla. on clearing out the
pyx and consuming every particle,
tasted something bitter. On the termi.
nation of the mass, he was attacked by
severe pains in the bowels, and died in
lew minutes in the sacristy. A post
mortem examination proved that the
unfortunate priest had been poisoned
with strychnine. and on examining the
pyx mlnutely some particles of strych-
nine were discovered. Suspicion fell
upon canon of the church, Gaetano
Limoli. who cherished great hatred
against the deceased-a feeling which
had recently been much increased by
some promotion awarded him by the
Archbishop of Syracuse. Limoli had a
brother who was a druggist, by whom
the shop was often left to the care of
the canon, who had thus the means of
supplying himself with poison. Limoli
was arrested and consigned to the
prison OF Syracuse, where he remained
1or two years. Last week the case was
brought before the Camera di Consiglio
equivalent to our grand jury) of the
Court of Appeals of Catania, when it
was decided that for want of proof
there was no ground for penal proceed
ings against the canon. Meantime it
is beyond doubt, " says the Roma, ..that
the priest Failla died of poison mixed
with the particle representing the body
and blood OF Our Lord Jesus Christ. -

Dentist Evans Prevents His Nephew From
Using the Family Cognomen.
The case of Evans VS.. D'Oyley was
recently decided by the Tribunal Pre-
miere Instance. after twenty-five min
utes' deliberation. DR.. Thomas w.
Evans. the founder of the American
Ambulance during the siege of Paris,
has nephew. BY decree of the Court
of Common Pleas in Pennsylvania in
1875 the nephew, not satisfied with his
plebeian name, legally assumed the
name of the Marquis or Count D'Oy1ey.
The young man is also dentist, and
when he came to practice his profession
in Paris found that the aristocratic
name D'Oyley did not pay nearly as
well as the plebeian name of Evans.
As matter of business policy, he
thereupon changed his name back again
to Evans; but to this the uncle objected.
He said mo. D'Oyley you are, and
D'Oyley you shall remain" The uncle
brought action against the nephew to
prevent him from using the name of
Evans. The French courtdecided that.
as the Pennsylvania court had decreed
the nephew's name to be the Marquis
or Count O'Oyley, the decree can not
be altered, and he had no right to as
sumo the name of Evans. Every time
he calls himself Evans he is to be fined
100 francs.-Pdris Special

CHARLES DICKENS.
The Great Novelist's Early ChiIdh God and
Youth.

The Great NoveIists Early ChiIdho God and
Youth.
Charles Dickens was very little and
a very sickly boy, but he had always
the belief that this circumstance had
brought to him the inestimable advan-
tage of having greatly inclined him to
reading. When money troubles came
upon his parents, the poor little fellow
was taken away from school and kept
for some time at an occupation most
distasteful to him, with every sur
rounding that could jar on sensitive
and refined feelings. But the great
hardship, and the one which he felt
most acutely, was the want of the COM
panionship of boys of his own age. A
few wears later on we read in ''Mr.
Forster's Life" schoolfellow' de-
scription of. Charles Dickens; "a
healthy looking boy. small but well
built, with more than usual flow of
spirits, inclining to harmless fun, sell
dom or never, l think, to mischief. He
usually held his head more erect than
lads ordinarily do, and there was gen.
eral smartness about him." This is
also a very good personal description
Of the man. / have never heard
him refer in any way to his own
childish days, excepting in one
instance when he would tell
the story, when he lived at Chatham,
he and his father often passed Cad s
Hill in their walks, and what an admit
ration he had for the red brick house
with its beautiful old cedar trees, and
how it seemed to him to be | arger and
finer than any other house; and how
his father would tell him that if he
were to be very persevering and were
to work hard he might perhaps some
day come to live in it. l heard him
tell this story over and over .again,
when he had become the possessor of
the very place which had taken such a
hold upon his childish affections. Be-
youd this can not recall single in
stance of any allusion being made by
him to his early childhood. He be-
lieyed the power of observation in very
Young children to be close and ac-
curate, and he thought the recollection
of most of us could go further back
than we suppose. l do not know how
far nv own memory may carry me
back. but I have no remembrance of
nv childhood which is not Immediate
Iy associated with him. He had a
wonderful attraction for children and
quick perception of their character and
dispositions; a most winning and easy
wav with them, full Of fun, but also
of graver sympathy with their MANY
small troubles and perplexities, which
made them recognize friend in him
at once.-Cor,shtH Magazine.
