THE NEW RNGLANDER

An Able Article i'm the May Numher by George D. WatrOus of This Citv The May number of the New Englander has for it's opening paper an able article on
 "Guef and Ghibelline in Italy To-day" by
 Lawyer George D. Watrous, of this city.
 The article starts out with discussion of the
 Papacy of the twelfth and thirteenth centu-
 ries. Though deprived of the temporal pow
 CT it once possessed, it's spiritual power was
 never greater than at the present day. The
 possible relations of religious community
 and State are three-the domination of the
 community by the State, the subjection of
 the State to the hierarchy and their perfect
 separation. The pre- Christian Roman reli-
 zion and the Jewish theocracy, Mr. Watrous
 says, are illustrations of the first two re-
 spectively. The latter relation alone has
 never existed. There is not perfect sepa
 ration of church and State in the United
 States, as the Protestant Bible is forced up-
 on our Roman Catholic and Jewish citizens
 in the public schools. The author traces the
 course of the historical development of the
 h p"'z fifth e century the to ia s7 rRsn BsTt Ss Gs
 doctrine of the infallibility of the Pope
 was incorporated among the dogmas of the
 church. After carefully treating of the
 GueH power as 1t is and has been, the writer
 discusses the Ghibelline in the Italy of to-
 day. MT. Watrous alludes briefly to the ef- forts of Monsignor Capel to agitate the Ro- man Catholic population of this country into demanding from Congress an interference in Italian affairs on account of the decision of the Court of Cessation, which declared the property of the College of the Propaganda Eide subject to conversion. The author, toward the end of his article, speaks of the national progress of the Kingdom of Italy in the last few years as amazing. He says the worlds verdict upon the prosperity and stability of the nation is reflect | ed in the stock exchanges of Europe. ] Italian rente in 1868 stood at A, in 1885 at l 95. The article has already received very fattering commendation from prominent | sources. It certainly is worthy of 8 careful | perusal by the intelligent reading public. | The article is we'll written and shows com freedom from bigotry. MT. Wat rous deserves the praise which one of the Boston papers gives him for being the author of an article of exceptional scholarly value.

WAS HE POISONED ?
Dr. Phi1lipi of New Britain Dies Sus
 denly Sunday Under Circurnst

Dr. Phillipi of New Britain Dies Suds
 denly sunday Under C1rcnrn stances
 Pointing to Poisoning.
 Dr. Phillipi, of New Britaif1 died suddenly
 Sunday afternoon under sifcifhstanaes which
 point strongly to poisoning. The doctor had
 just returned from walk with his wife when
 be was seized with spasis,s and fell tc the
 floor. Medical aid was summoned and the
 doctor was removed to his bed where he died
 shortly afterwards. Dr. Cummings telegraph ed for Coroner Sperry and testified before him yesterday that the death of Dr. Phillipi was without doubt due to poisoning, the symp- toms being those resulting from heavy dose of strychnine, with description of the case Mir. Sperry spent the whole afternoon taking the testimony of neighbors of the dead man and others, and left for Hartford at night ! without cotnpleting his investigation. 1t is | likely that an autopsy will be held as we'll as an inquest and the true cause of the doctors | sudden demise brought to light.
 l NEW BRITAIN, May 11.-This afternoon l the coroner completed his examination of a number of witnesses and had arranged for an autopsy of the remains, later, in the day, | to ascertain if possible the exact cause of death. The doctors seem to be agreed that | death was caused by poisoning, and that in | all probability he administered it to himself, after dinner on Sunday
 The Hartford Times reporter learned from | thoroughly reliable authority that lady saw Phillipi walking out that afternoon, and
 noticed hin take small phial from his pocket, shake it, and place it carefully back
 in his pocket. His wife says she searched
 his pockets but found nothing of poison
 ous nature in them, nor indeed any phial. | SIF-pn~ ! A slight fire occurred in Reilly's block on
 Congress avenue early last evening, which
 was easily extinguished by a pail of water,
 but not before the fire department had been | called out.
