Rev. W. P. O'Donnell, of St, Mary'rf
church, Providence, prea hod the ser
mon from the text: "For every high
prloBt taken from among men Is or
dulned for men In the things which ap
pertain to God, that Jie may offer up
gifts and sacrifices for sins:
Who can have compassion on the
Ignorant and the erring since he him
self Is also encompnsscd with Infirmi
ties (St. Paul, Hob. v. 1:2.)
Father O'Donnell's Sermon.
Father O'Donnell spoke very feeling
ly and most eloquently, and, besides.
he paid the following tribute to Futher
Mungan s worth as a man:
My beloved brethren, we nre In the
presence of a sad, an txceeding and oc
currence. It Is one of those occasions
In the course of human life when we
find It difficult to attune our will to the
deep and serious sympathies which vi
brate from our hearts. A priest of
unu uisen rrom among men, and or
dained for men In the things which
appertain to God; one of whom we
loved Tor his qualities, social as well
ns his religious qualities, has been
taken suddenly end unexpectedly from
our midst and called to render an ac
count of his stewardship.
We hope and trust that the rewards
of his virtues and sacrifices were many
awaiting him on the records of that
tribunal before which all men must ap
pear. May the God of Mercy deal kind
ly with him. and grant eternal rest to
his poor Immortal soul.
Though gifted with talents which
might have placed him in the front
ranks of his fellows in the secular
world, he listened to the voice of God
calling him to a higher life where he
could instruct others Into Justice, have
compassion on ithe erring ones In this
world und offer gifts and sacrliiues for
sin.
The priesthood of Christ Is the high
est and holiest office that God cun con
fer upon man and the aspirant to that
sublime dignity should bring to his
calling not only zeal for God's honor
and glory and the salvation of souls,
but also human learning, that he may
be able to give reasons for the faith
that is In bim, Instruct tho Ignorant,
and lead wuverlng humanity from this
valley of sin to the mountain of holi
ness. Futher Mangon was a man not only
richly endowed with natural abilities,
but ho was a serious student, a deep
rensoner, gifted with a tenacious mem
ory, in which he hud stored uwuy a
rich fund of facts. He was not only
learned In bin culling, but lie was thor
oughly conversant with the current
events and knew -well the hbitory of the
living men of the duy.
Kiu-h ill irht choose some particular
trait of his character, but to my mind
the one which predominated wus self-
sucrlllce; uhvuys yielding up bis own
Interenls for thu good of others. He
adhered tenaciously to what he be
lieved to be right, but very retiring In
his disposition and never Imposed his
opinions In uthers und exceedngly care
ful never to olteml. mil, my nremren,
although a hltrh priest of superior ut-
tiiliiim-nts and selected by lion m oner
gifts and snerillees for sins, he himself
was encompassed with llrmness. und if
we loved lilin in life let us love him also
In death, und let that love niunuesi
Itself in un appeal to God is his behalf.

MURDER IN SECOND DECREE
That Is the Verdict Returned in the
Case Against John S. Rostosfcy.
RECEIVED BY JUDGE ARCHBALD
Convicted Man Will Do Sentenced by
Judge Albright, Ilcforo Whom He Was
Tried How tho Jury Stood During
the Time It Was Out.
John Sylvester Rostosky was found
guilty by the Jury of murder In the
second degree for the crime of crush
ing the skull of Joseph Chile with a
buse ball bat at the Ridge In Arch
bald borough on Sunday morning, Sept.
17. of last year.
The verdict was returned at 9 o'clock
yesterday morning und was recorded in
court by Judiro Archbald. It required
twenty-one hours for the jury to reach
a unanimous decision regarding the
punishment that ought to fit Ros
tosky's crime.
From all the evidence In the case it
did not appear that the prisoner wil
fully, deliberately nnd iiremedltatedly
commuted the murder; but it was due
to the careful ami painstaking defense
established by his attorneys, Joseph
O'Hiit-n und ex-Judge W. H. Stanton.
They nre the recipients of congratula
tions und they richly deserve them.
District Attorney John U. Jones con
tended for n verdict of murder in the
first degree and made out a strong cuse
for the commonwealth. He was n?
sbted with no mean encouragement by
John M. Corbelt, n promising member
of the younger bur.
All the fads of the case have hereto
fore been detailed fully, but suffice it
to say that the murder was the out
come of a drunken brawl. There was
more or less provocation In the offense.
Taki'jg tho Verdict.
At 9 o'clock yesterday morning the
jury sent word to court .that it had
ngreed and Judge Archbald, who was
on tho bench, ordered them to be
brought In. Deputy Prothonotary
Myron J. Knsson acted ns recording
clerk und took the sealed envelope from
the foreman, Charles M. Zitzleman,
handing it to the court.
The prisoner was over in the dock
to the right and he awaited nervous
ly the news of the finding of the Jury.
His attorneys were also present. Judge
Archbald returned the verdict to Mr.
Kasson, who read it aloud:
"Gentleman of the Jury, hearken unto
your verdict as the court hath re
corded it. In the case of the common
wealth of Pennsylvania nguinst John
Sylvester Rostosky, you find the de
fendant guilty of murder In the second
degree and recommend him to the
mercy of the court."
The Jurymen nodded assent and
Judge Archbald thanked them and then
discharged them from further consider
ation of the case. They retired to the
treasurer's office and drew twelve days'
pay.
Altorneys O'Brien and Stanton asked
court the privilege of having Ros
tosky sentenced by the Judge who pre
sided at Uie trial. Judge Archbald
stated that Judge Albright undoubtedly
would return to Impose sentence. The
severest penalty for second degree Is
twenty years Imprisonment.
Way the Jury Stood.
On the first ballot the Jury stood three
for first degree, six for second degree
and three for acquittal. Quite a num
ber of ballots were taken and finally
It stood three for first degree and nine
for Becond degree.
When the balloting was resumed yes
terday morning the three for first de
gree consented to a second degree ver

A regular meeting of the Ladles' Aux
iliary society was held yesterday under
the presidency of Mrs. David Brown, a
large number of ladies being present.
The, case of a distressed railroader's
family was brought before the meetlns
and the ladles decided to assist the
family In a substantial manner. Other
business of a routine nature was trans
acted. The good news was announced yes
terday that eight hours a day will be
resumed In the car shops on Monday.
For over two months the work In the
shops has been limited to six hours per
day, but In the meantime the number
of crippled cars ready for overhauling
has Increased to a considerable extent,
so that work Is usuured for some time
to come. Unfortunately the coal busi

tained the uctlvity displayed In the
previous week.
Last night's lecture on the "Air
Brake" to conductors and brakemen
was largely attended notwithstanding
the many celebrations of Washington's
birthday. The principal feature was
the explanation of the air brake under
a freight car and the methods of over
coming uny defects. Several questions
were asked concerning the details of
working. There Is every indication
that railroaders huve appreciated the
value of the instruction they receive
from the lectures.
Engineers, llremen, conductors and
brakemen on the Central railroad are

ubout 7 per cent, of the questions asked.
The following excerpt is taken from
the recently published report of the
secretary of Internal affairs of the state
with reganl to the railroad statistics
furnished by tho various companies:
"In ono, case It was found necessary
to certify a delinquent company to the
uttorney general for the collection of
the penalty provided for such delin
quency. The Ontario, Carbondale and
Scranton Railway company has for sev
eral years been derelict or exceedingly
slow In muklng Its reports. The con
tinued negligence could no longer be
tolerated, and, after furnishing It with
the proper blunks for this year, send
ing several letters and telegrams re
garding their report, a communication
was addressed to the attorney general
calling his attention to the delinquency
and requesting him to proceed at once
to the collection of the penalty for fail
ure to comply with the law."
