A Sensational Scene In a Rural Gath

ROCHESTER, N. Y, Dec. PA special
to the Herald, from Mount Norris, Gays ::
There was great excitement at st. Pat
rick's. the largest country church in
Western New York, at the midnight
macs last night. The former pastor,
Father Flaherty, was removed several
months ago, after trial and conviction
of criminal intimacy with young girl
OF the parish, but was granted stay,
and a motion for a new trial, to Oe ar
gued at the January term. The church
was crowded to overlooking. Alter
mass was said by Esther Day, now in
charge of the church, and while the
Christmas offering was being taken,
Father Flaherty passed up the cente r
aisle and spoke to the congregation as
follows:
IA year ago tonight was at this altar
as your priest, while tonight am con-
victed and under sentence condemned
to the criminals cell. There is man
in THE church tonight who was instru-
mental in my conviction, and that man
is Cornelius Leary. This man came
here tonight with no sacred intention.
1t is the sentiment of this congregation
| that he leave this sacred editice."
Cries of ''Put him out!''' were now
heard. Cornelius Leary roee in his seat
and said: IF Charles Flaherty or any
of his friends attempt to eject me from
this church, will leave work for the
coroner in the morning."
No attempt was made to put him out.
Father Flaherty then said: 'Leary har-
bored Mary Green several weeks pre-.
vious to the trial, schooling her in what
to say to bring about my conviction"
The congregation was greatly excited,
but under the influence of Father Day,
left the church without further demon

Sincerity.

Sincerity is the soul OF piety When
that is wanting there can be no piety.
whatever may be the outward appearance.
Sincerity never INDUCES in the use OF
words with the intention OF misleading
another. That is the very opposite OF its
nature. To speak truth as one thinks in
his heart is a work Of piety. Judging
men by their speeches and writings. as
compared with their dongs. we must
conclude that piety is al a low ebb ar
present. whatever may be the outward
show OF religion. We know many per
sons. and among them are elders and
ministers. whose profession and actual
walk have no real correspondence. es-
pecialy in money matters. They profess
10 be honest and TO love their ncighbors
and yet they will cheat them out of every
cent they can in making bargains. or in
borrowing money, when they know they
will never be able 10 pay. No amount
OF pious talk or Sanctimonious devotion
can cover up or make amends for such
insincerity. 4 man may be overtaken
In fault once or twice and If so. We
must not set him down ever afterward as
a pious fraud But in that case he must
repent and make amends. when we should
forgive him. But that is a very different
thing from living i'm the habitual practice
OF false representations. which are not
mistakes, but lies.--Christian lnstruc-
tor.

Only a few hours later there was an
interesting case received into the chill
drcn's ward Of the city hospital A lit
tie newsboy all broken and bandaged lay
suffering upon one of the iron cots; and
this was the record Of the case given
by one in charge:
"The little 'newsy' was the support Of
a mother who was a drunkard. If the
child failed TO bring home what money
she thought sufficient she was very
abusive on the night Of the storm the
child reached his attic TO find his mother
half-crazed with drink. and i'm a fury over
the small amount Of money he brought
with him. She took the little human IT ite
in her strong arms and tried to thrdst
him through the attic window. She sue
ceeded in cutting him badly with the
broken glass. but he saved himself from
falling TO the pavement far below. AS he
crawled back the same frenzied effort
was repeated. Again he saved himself;
then when he was once more within her
reach. she took him and threw him to the
floor and jumped upon him. BY this time
the cOmmoton brought other occupants
OF the tenement to the spot. and they
rescued the child and handed the woman
over to the police. The child, supposed
10 be dying, was taken TO the hospital.
When the physician sat beside him. after
he regained consciousness. the doctor had
said: Your mother abused you terribly,
didn't She? The little lad made no reply.
The remark was repeated. and the little
fellow said:
Look here. now. don't say anything
against my mother, She'd be all right
II it want for the whisky and the boy
absolutely refused TO give any testimony
against the miserable creature who so
dishonors the name Of woman"
What words can paint the heroism
Of that grand little fellow half so wildly
as the simple patience and forgiveness
Of his attitude toward the fallen one.

Beautiful Gems.

No woman in the world wears so many
jewels as the CZarna, says the Boston
Globe. Even her sister. who, when she
comes to the English throne. will wear
Kohinoor will not have such magnifi-
cent jewels or wear so many Of them at
one time.
The Russian crown jewels are some
thing simply fabulous. II is TO be doubted
whether any one outside Of that country
has any definite conception of the extent
Of the RomanOff possessions in the way
of gems and precious stones
The Russians still retain their old bar
barrie love Of splendOr. and when the En-
press shows herself she is a vision Of
unmatched gOrgeousness. She is one Of
the few monarchs of Europe who still
make a practice Of wearing a crown on
great occasions.
Most of the European queens and en-
presses content themselves with tiara.
Even Queen Victoria. on the occasion Of
her jubilee leevees, wore only one Of the
diamond tiaras, such as may be seen on
the heads of women in the boxes of the
opera-house.
But the Czarina wears a real crown.
There are several she uses. but the ia
vorite one is that made and worn by
the great Elizabeth OF Russia, and which
is loaded with gems Of great price. The
pearls alone are said 10 be valued AT
something like 5000 roubles
When the Empress danced with the
Austrian ambassador recently. causing the
significant fact to be flashed around the
world before morning. she was arrayed IN
a fashion Of which Solomon never dream
ed, nor Balkis ever saw
On her head was the Elizabeth crown.
Her gown was of heavy white watered
silk. with a white velvet train eTbroid-
cred heavily in gold balls all around the
edges The front of the dress was orna-
mented with ropes OF pink coral set In
diamonds and fastened a intervals TO the
dress.
The necklace she wore contained over
I 900 stones. and reached nearly from neck
10 waist-a mass Of rubies. sapphires and
diamonds-a veritable breastplate Of glis-
tenng gems
Beside this she wore on her breast about
half of her orders she has over forty in
aI-and they. too, were flashing with
precious stones
Her rinss. bracelets and earrings were
all equally nagnifcent and she danced
IT was like the northern lights in a misty
sky a myriad Of flashing rays OF all
colors. g'ittering and changing with every

not doubt but that the mind is a less
pleasant thing 10 look at than the face.
and for that very reason it needs more

on your toilet-table, and see that with
proper care you dress body and mind
before them daily. Write down then,
frankly, what YOU are. or At least, what
YOU think yourself no dwelling upon
