pastor of Holy Cioss church. The cou
KreK.itlon of this church has suffered
no end of annoyance fiom mischievous
boys, and filially, when one of their

detet mined to prosecute them.
YounK Messott and u i omp.inion,

Sunday, Jniiuiiry SO, 1901, whllu Hev.
Fatliur O'Donuell was prcaelilnFr.
opened the church door and one of
tliem, Messett, yelled "murder!" at the
top of his voice. The coniriuKiitlnn was
Ktenlly staitled, and it was only the
reassuilnf; wouls of Father O'Donuell
that pi evented a panic.
Mesestt and RIkkm weic discovered
to In the perpetratois of the deed, and
placed under an est, IMkks professed a
slnceie lepentmiee and received appio
pilate cliastlseincnt fiom bis patents.
The prosecution against blm was ac
coidlnifly dtopped. Youni? Messett
showed a disposition to tlBlit the tlilnjf
to a finish and he was f?lcn the op
poi tunity
Thice boys who weic with Mesestt
and H.I-4KS, AVilliam Heirily, T.ouls
Davein and Hubert Fceney, testified
that Higrs and Mesestt usi ended tlie
steps of the ehuich and one of them
shouted "minder!" after which they
i. in away. Feeney further testified that
he heard KIjws sukkcsi it to Mesestt,
mid Messett aRiee to cany out Hit sug
sestion. Tlu; defense admitted that the boys
opened Ihe chinch door to see If
cliuich was out and that some one
passing by yelled "murder."
John E. JicR.in and James May. two
prominent members of the congieg.i
tlon, testifled that Father O'Dounell's

Tlie absence of an impoiLint witness

tlie buttons belonged to her daughters
employer, and pi (needed to have the
daughter :n rested, with a lew of send
ing her to a icforinatory. The gill yes
terday persisted in her story that her
employer's sister gave her the buttons,
and as the sister was too 111 to appear,
a verdict of not guilty lesulted.
