The CONTINUED inclement weather
makes it the more incumbent upon
those who are able to give to the poor,
to do so literally. The larger their
contributions now, the more refreshing
will be their slumbers and the mole
pleasant their dreams. Then, too, it
must not be forgotten that charity is the
greatest OF the virtues.

A YOUNG militiaman, who was taken
sick while on duty in suppressing the
recent striking mob in Brooklyn, had
to be sent to a hospital, as the shop
keepers near his home boycotted him
and refused to sell him the medicine and
food he required. And yet the sick
boy was engaged, by order of his State
in defending laborers who were trying
to earn an honest living by taking
places which other men had volunta
rily abandoned. Such instances as this
indicate that the love of free institu-
tons once entertained by the people OF
this country has had its day.

t. ESTABLISH the fact that the pro-
tec;ive tariff of this country enables Its
few benefciaries to acquire immense
fortunes at the expense of the whole
body of their fellow citizens, it is only
necessary to say that Mr.. Andrew Car
negie, who was poor man few years
ago, has, by means of it, become not
only multi millionaire, but has given
no less than three million dollars to
educational objects. His liberality is
more commendable than the means by
which he is enabled to manifest it so
conspicuously.

JAPANESE WHIsKY.-'Saki" is the
name of japanese alcoholic beverage
distilled in some way from the wine in
the country which is said to have eff
.ects as much more bewildering than
Mexican pnlque as the effects of pulque
are more bewildering than those Of
lager beer. 1t is remarked that the
variety of whisky known as Jersey
lightning" is as new milk compared to
the "saki" of Japan. 1t makes a man
drunken, stays by him longer, produces
tremens of a more vivacious character,
and brings total alcoholic eclipse Of the
intellect more rapidly than any other
brew or distillation known to mankind.
That is, other people are affected that
way. 1t does not affect seriously the
Japanese, who drink it moderately. L
has been introduced recently in the
Sandwich Islands, and the natives are
crazy after it. Experts express the
opinion that it will settle the Hawaiian
question permanently in from year
and a half to two years.-Chicago

The RECENT papal encyclical is con
strued differently by the respective
friends of Mgr. satoili and Archbishop
Ireland, and by those Of Archbishop
Corrigan and the rest of the American
hierarchy. But as the Bible is con-
strued differently, it is by no means
strange that an encyclical should be.
Be that as it may, however, the ency-
clical contains much good advice, by
adopting which no Catholic will be
harmed.

He May Be Heard in His Own Defence.

Washington, January lS.-The minors
ty report Or the impeachment of Judge
Kicks written by MIR. Roderick OF Kan
sas, says: "In view of all the facts In
the CASE it is our conclusion that Judge
Kicks is not guilty of any off ence; there
was no intention of wrong doing, and
no moral turpitude attached, and we
therefore recommend the resolution re-
ported to the House for impeachment be
not adopted"
The Judiciary committee remained in
session three hours and half, and at
the end of that time a motion was made
by Mr.. Harrison of Alabama that Judge
Kicks be permitted to come before the
committee and be heard in his own. de-
fence if he desired, and he might have
the privilege of bringing in witnesses.
The motion included similar privilege
for the opponents of the judge. The
motion was carried, to 5. Mr.. Rod
erick, immediately after the meeting,
telegrahped Judge Kicks that the COM
mittee had decided to hear him.

this statement may be doubted. In 1891
Smallwood spoke before the
MAINE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE
delighting them. as he did all his audiences.
Last June Rev. l. G. Ross and wife at
tended the commencement at the school AT
Claremont, and it will be remembered that
while there the White Caps and ku-Klux
threatened to mob him. Mr.. Ross does not
now feel fully certain as TO the genuine
ness of these demonstrations.
Smallwood's course is In expllcable TO
those who know him. white neighbor IN
Virginia has limited that he might not be IN
his right mind. He was always exemplary
in all his acts and relations far as Mr.
Ross could say. and was often on his knees
in prayer. All his acts seemed to show
consistent Christian life. But recently, in
course of the investigation made in regard
to him in Maine and Massachusetts,, some
associations of Smallwocd with women have
been brought to light, which need explana-
ton.
Late reports from Virginia indicated that
Smallwood is likely to be arrested, but it is
not known on what action.

SUPERIOR COURT.
BEFORE JUDGE RoNNEY.

Friday-For the third time Delbert G.
Donnockcr was put on trial in the Superior
court this morning for committing the
crime of adultery with one Ella Gilman at
Scarboro, on the 9Th of June, 1892. AT the
first trial he was convicted, but on account
of the exclusion of testimony which the
Law court said should have been admitted,
the verdict was set aside and new trial
granted. At the second trial the jury dis
agreed, standing four for conviction and
eight for acquittal.
Of course as to the actual commission of
the crime there are only two direct wit
nesses, Miss Gilman on the one side and
Donnocker on the other, and he denies that
there was ever any such TRANSACTION or
anything that could suggest it. All the
evidence upon his part is to the effect that
he has always sustained a good moral
character and the circumstances were such
that morning that Donnocker could not
have known that he and Ella were alone in
the house. While on the part of the govern
ment the testimony was to the effect that
Donnocker saw the inmates of the family
depart. and that he locked the house and
harm himself when he and Ella started for
school.
At the time of the alleged crime DON
nocker was teaching the nigh school in
Scarboro and boarding at the house of
George E. Gilman. Ella Gilman was a pupil
in the High school and being lame from an
accident the fall before was in the habit Of
riding back and forth with Donnocker. She
alleges that on the morning of the 9th OF
June, when all the family were absent, this
ofense was committed against her will.
that she Immediately after got ready and
rode to school with him as usual and con-
tinued to do SO; that she was afraid to do
otherwise as it might lead to discovery Of
her shame. This she says was the only time
Donnocker ever offered TO or did commit
any iinpr opriety; that she did not tell her
mother until her condition became such in
the fall that she could no longer conceal it,.
Mr.. Donnocker says he is now at work in
an Office in Boston, and studying law.
and Judge Bonney will charge the jury at
the coming in of the court in the morning
County Attorney True conducted the case
for the State and Hon. Frank L.. Noble of
