Finnemore's wife, who was held as
a witness. was committed to Jail in de-
fault of bonds of $500. BY singular
coincidence today was the second an
niversary of the marriage of the cou-
pie.
The charge against Finnemore was
assault with intent to murder and the
continuance was granted pending the
outcome of Grants injuries. 1t is al
legged that Finnemore, who is "a years
old, and his wife came from Manches-
ter, n. H., on Saturday night, arriv-
ing in Boston penniless. Both were cold

lice, Finnemore put on a mask and en-
tered Grants store at East Milton, de-
manding money. Upon his refusal to
hand over money, Grant, it is alleged,
was shot in the head by Finnemore.
Court officers said today that Mrs.
Finnemore told them that she had
made her husband promise that he
would not injure Grant when he enter
ed the store. Mrs. Finnemore, accord
ing to the police, waited on the out
side while Finnemore held up Grant.
Grant was reported today as resting
comfortably at the hospital. IT,

lieved to be engaged in his most I'M
portant service to this city and coun-
try.
: Although the hour set for the fun
eral services In the old st. Patrick 8
cathedral in Mott street was II A. M,
many Italians gathered early today in
LAFAYETTE street, near the home of the
detective, where his body was lying in
state. The heavy police guard on duty
about the house would permit no con-
gregating in the immediate vicinity,
but admirers and compatriots of Pet
rosino found time to pause and with
bowed heads utter a silent prayer be-
fore passing on to work.
Twenty-Five policemen were station
ed in front Of the Petrosino home and
so detectives were on duty in the yards
and roofs of that and adjoining build
ings. Four hundred and fifty police
men, including many dressed in plain
clothes, were assigned to guard the
funeral procession on its way from
Lafayette street to the old cathedral
in Mott street and from the cathedral
to Calvary cemetery on Long Island.

the little chapel in a rocky ravine fac

torrent to fall into the sea. The chapel
is all that is left to mark the shrine
dedicated to the lovely Devota, Corsi-
can maiden, martyred centuries ago
and here buried. To her the fishermen
Of the little village along the coast look
for protection against the wrath of

cathedral, built high on the edge of the
rock overlooking the sea at the firing of
a gun the long procession, headed by
bishops, priests and choir boys, pctur-
esquely gowned in their gorgeous scar
let, gold and lace, wound slowly down
the hillsides bearing aloft the casllet
that contained the holy relics of the
saint. Following came groups of hood
ed nuns from the convent on the hill,
guarding white yelled maidens, casting
sldelong glances under dropping lids
and troops of roguish eyed children all
sweetly chanting At the foot of the
hill. by the edge of the water, the pro-

bishop gave benediction. Then, mid
the clangor of bells, it went on, pass

One of the latest tricks of author

One of the "anonymouS' authors who
recently have achieved success is the
Rev. J. Jessop league. who has sue
ceedcd in winning a wide public for his
ren- name-"Morice Gerad." His first
book won $500 prize. 1t was 4 novel
called 1.-THE Growing of Esther"
which was followed by two anonymous
stories, 1.-THE Red Seal and 'The Rose
OF Blenheim,'' both of which caught
on. His novel, ',The Unspokcn Word"
also has done well. Having created
the name of "Morice Gerad," which.
from strictly euphonious point Of
view sounds a lot better than j. Jes-

has been advised to stick to his non

Quite a number of 'reccrends" arr

prevent them from doing so, no seri-
Gus objection could be taken. Author
