NEW HAVEN, Oct 2O.-AngeIo Pet
rillo, the Italian murderer, who was
convicted last week, was sentenced this
morning by Judge Phelps, who said:
LAS the minister of the law it has be-
come my duty to pronounce upon you
it's just sentence for the crime of muir
der in the first degree, of which you
have been found guilty In fair trial by
an impartial jury of this county, after
very faithful and able efforts of learned
counsel in your behalf. The crime for
which you have" been convicted is the
premeditated and malicious murder of
Michael Dimeo, one of,Sour countrymen
and your brother-in-law, That the YER
dict of the jury is warranted by the evil
dence there can be no reasonable doubt.
By taking the life of your, victim you
have justly forfeited your own and have
no reason to expect or hope for a miti-
to your crime in both divine and human
law. You sent Dimeo to his death with
out a moments warning; but the law,
more merclful to you, gives you
time for reflection and repentance, and
it will become you to spend it in earnest
and contrite efforts to obtain that for
giveness for your sins and especially for
the awful crime of which you have been
convicted, which can only come
through sincere repentance from the
great fountain of divine mercy. The
sentence of the court is that you be re-
manded to the county Jail of New
Haven county, there to remain until
November IA, 1899, and that on said
day and within said Jail or enclosed
yard within, SO as to avoid public
observation, between the hours of 1C

The Ansonia Sentinel is in possession
of a circular letter and several printed
documents which bear the name of a
Chicago woman, with her address, and
which, without question, are used for
improper purposes among the young
women of the country. This letter was
received by a respectable young lady of
Ansonia who, thinking to benefit and
warn others, sent it to the Sentinel
This is the circular in full:
CHICAGO, October 8, 1891.
Dear Miss-A gentleman in your
neighborhood is very anxious to keep
your company. He has forwarded me
your name, with the statement that he
would like to pay his attentions to you;
for him or not. On enclosed "private
list write out the names and addresses
of gentlemen-not less than three
nor more than ten-whose atten-
lions would be agreeable to you.
If your list contains the name of the
gentleman we refer to, it will be evident
that there is a mutual hiking. and we
will inform you at once, and also let
the gentleman know. Otherwise your
name wi not be mentioned. Perhaps
this discovery may lead to a happy

you have to do is to send in the names
and see if you can guess the right one.
Yours in confidence, Miss.
Accompanying the letter is the
"private list" which is merely blank
on which to write the names, and in

latter is very glowing inducement for
the recipient to join in the scheme, de-

The value of newspaper advertising
the large audience at the opera house.
For three weeks ''She Couldn't Marry
Three had been kept before the eyes of
the readers of the daily papers, with the
result that every seat in the opera house
was occupied last night and standing
room was at a premium. The play
might probably be called a comedy melo-
drama. 1t was in the hands of good
company and the audience was liberal
in applause. Miss Kennedy as Bess is a
winsome little body and captivated
everybody by her pleasing manners. By
P. Sullivan, who impersonated Davy,
the honest noble fisherman. John J.
Kennedy as Bob made lots of fun in the
last two acts. The scenery was very
good.

Poison Proof Animals.

Neither differences of organization in
animals nor in the constitution of the
poisonous substance generally afford any
clew for interpreting an exceptional want OF
effect. UnaccoCntable is the immunity Of
rabbits against belladonna leaves (Atropa
belladonna, deadly nightshade) You may
feed them with beIladonna for weeks with
ont observing the least toxic symptoms.
The meat of such animals, however, proves
poisonous to any one who eats II, produc-
ing the same symptoms as the plant.
Pigeons and various other herbiyora are
also TO some degree safe from the effects of
this poison, while in warm blooded carniv-
ora it causes paralysis and asphyxia. In
frogs the effect is a different one. consist
ing Of spasms. The meat of goats which
had fed on hemlock has sometimes occa-
stoned poisonous effects. Chickens are
nearly hardy against nux vomica and the
extremely dangerous alkaloid, strychnine,
contained in it, while in the smallest
amount it is a fatal poison TO rodents.
More remarkable yet in this respect is
the immunity of Choloepus Hofmanni, a
kind of sloth living on the island of Cey-
Ion, which, when given ten grains Of
strychnine, was not much affected. Pig
cons are possessed of high immunity from
morphine, the chief alkaloid of opium, as
well as from belladonna Eight grains
were required to kill pigeon, not much
less than the mortal dose for man. Cats
are extremely sensitive to foxglove Digi-
tails purpurea), which on the contrary
may be given TO rabbits and various birds
in pretty large doses.-W. Bernhardt in
