On the foreground is the Christ child iy-' ing on a white cloth held by two ador-' ing angels Beside him kneels the Vir gin, her hands held up in wonder and awe. Above her stands Joseph and to the right a shepherd with his crook. A typical Italian priest points out to him the child.
 Prof Forest Cheney is the possessor, and not until recently did he suspect the value of his prize. It was cov- cred with black asphalt paint and only faint1y showed the Christ child at first. Now the entire picture stands out.

Buffalo, Sept 25.-A verdict of guilty of murder in the first degree was re- ported at 4:25 o'clock yesterday after noon by the jury which tried Leon F. Czolgosz for the assassination of Pres ident Mckinley It was reported ex- clusively in yesterdays Democrat, no other paper circulating in Waterbury giving the verdict. Eight hours and twenty-five minutes was actual time occupied by the trial of the case and the deliberations and return of the jury. Eighteen days had elapsed from the shooting of the president, and ten days and fourteen hours since his death. On Thursday the assassin will be sentenced to death. No wit nesses were sworn for the defence. Not word of evidence was before the court as to the sanity of the prisoner. The alieniSts who examined him were not called. The court instructed the jury that the proof of insanity is with the defendant, that a man must be presumed to be sane unless proven in- sane.
 To the assassin was offered the op- portunity to go on the stand, but he only shook his head when his lawyers asked him. He did not trust himself to speak The unconcerned murderer of yesterday had changed. His pallor had turned from white to yellow His hands shook. He curtained his eyes with the lids and sat with his head hanging on his shoulder. a nervous precipitation oozing out on his face and hands. In remaining mute through out the assassin found way to hold his composure, but yesterday afternoon i'll court he was a most miserable pie ture. No bravado, no courage, no de fiance of death, not the glorification of the Anarchist who "did his duty''- just a cur-like collapse.
 "He will be dragged to the death chair bowling with terror" said Chief of Detectives Cusack. who has studied him since his arrest. and the fear that was written all over the assassin lent itself to the prediction.
