after a long absence, and they leave
the city for a few days in the COM
pany of a pagan friend, Caecilius.
AT Ostia they take their holiday, and
one morning as they walk along the
beach Caecilius salutes a pagan sta
tue on the way. Octavius cannot pre-
vent himself from saying to his COM
panion: ut is not well, my brother,
to leave a faithful friend in this gross
state of error. Will you permit to
show acts of reverence to lifeless
statues of stone that deserve no hon.
or, even though they be crowned and
watered with oils?" No answer is
given at first, and the walk continues.
The two Christians enjoy the sights
around them, but there is cloud over
the mind of the pagan. What he has
just heard troubles him, and he asks
to be enlightened. The three friends
sit on the rocks beside the sea, and
the discussion recorded by Minucius
begins The dialogue is a splendid
comparison of the two religions with
the truths of sound philosophy, with
a view to setting forth the superiority
of Christianity The author acts as
umpire, and shows throughout the
whole work the great enthusiasm with
| which he is filled for the cause of
Christianity.

Better known is the other event
mentioned in connection with the
Christian history of Ostia. Here ST.
Monica ended her mortal life, living
to see her son conquered by the grace
her tears had merited for him.
Augustine had been baptized by St.
Ambrose in Milan, and he and his
mother were on the way back to
Africa. They determined to stay a
few days at Ostia before beginning
their sea-journey. 1t was there in
the house in which they lodged, at a
.window looking out on a garden, that
they discoursed SO sweetly on the
Kingdom of Heaven, and, forgetting
the things that we leave behind, they
tried to penetrate the life that await
ed the saints of God. The scene is ad
mirably described by st. Augustine in
his Confessions" But few days

Mr.. Ryder. up until this morning,

 Gilman was arraigned before the po' lice court of Willimantic and was held for the superior court without bonds. He has since been confined at the county jail in Brooklyn where he has been observed by alienists both for the state and at the request of his own counsel and it is expected that the de fense will be insanity.
 Gilman was not in court Tuesday morning. He waived his right to be in the grand jury room to listen to the evidence Under Connecticut law the defendant is the only one allowed in the grano jury room except the wit ness under examination, even counsel being barred.
