A London cable says : An exciting inci-

Mongolian, which sailed from Montreal
November 3 for Liverpool, has been made
public. It appears that while the steamer
was passing Londonderry on Friday, bound
up the Irish sea, Mrs. Mason, the
stewardess, rushed on deck revolver in
hand, and fired at Purser Stewart, who was
on the saloon deck. The purser tried to
disarm the woman, but before he succeeded
in gettingthe weapon from her she dis-
�clrarged te pistol three times. Two of the
bullets struck the purser. A number of
passengers were on deck at the time and
great excitement prevailed. No reason is
given for Mrs. Mason's act, and she was
permitted to leave the vessel unmolested at
Liverpool. Stewart's wounds are serious.

Sam Jones Will. Turn Lawyer to Fight for
Sam Small.
An Atlanta, Ga., despatch says : Rev.
Sam Jones, the evangelist, is going to turn
lawyer for one day at least. Rev. Sam
Small was recently assaulted by Thomas
Minor, a saloonkeeper, who kicked out one
of his front teeth. Mr. Small Sued Minor
for $15,000 damages. Sam Jones has
agreed to be Sam Small's lawyer in the case.
Fifteen years ago Sam Jones was a lawyer
in Cartersville., Then he turned preacher.
All he has to do to be a lawyer again is to
pay the State license of $10. This he has
done, and he . will seize the opportunity to
deliver a lecture on saloonkeepers.
Rev. Samuel Cotten Not a Catholic.
The following letter, which we copy from
the Catholic Weekly Review, corrects a
statement which was copied by the TIMES
without personal knowledge of the facts :
To the Editor of the Mail:
Srn,—In the issue of the Mail of Monday
last, 2nd nit., there appears amongst the
cable news what purports to be a despatch
-from Dubliri;--dated Nvv. let; a-portioneof-
which reads as follows :
since the arrest of the Rev. Samuel Cotten
charged with criminal ill-treatment of the
children in the Carmagh Orphanage, the local
excitement has been increased by further
sensational developments. Rev. Mr. Cotten is
the Roman Catholic ' Rector of Carmagh,
County Kildare, etc., etc. [The italics are
mine.]
This .paragraph,_, in so far as it calls the
Rev. Samuel Cotton a Roman Catholic, is a
most despicable „falsehood, its manifest
object being to make capital against the
Catholic Church.
The person in question, who, with his
wife, Elizabeth S. Cotten, was arraigned at
the Petty Sessions Court at Robertstown,
County Kildare, on Tuesday, Oct 27th,
before a bench of magistrates and com-
mitted for trial, is an Anglican and, not a
Roman Catholic minister. This fact must
have been known to your correspondent, the
more especially as the trial, with all its
horrible disclosures of brutality and negli-
gence, took place on Oct. 27th, whilst the
Mail's Dublin deapatch was dated Nov.
1st, or nearly a week later. Reports of Mr.
Cotten's arrest appeared amongst the cable
news of the other city dailies of Oct. 30th,
in none of which, however, was he cited as.
a Roman Catholic rector. I would not
wish to infer from this that the despatch
was "cooked" by the Mail before publica-
tion, but the above mentioned facts are
significant.
The Catholic Church has repeatedly been
falsely accused and assailed upon charges
with as little groundwork. of truth as the
foregoing. In this her life has been the
counterpart of that of her divine founder, a
life of trialspersecutions and vilifications,but also a life of triumphs and victories—
and if the misstatements in the Mail's pre-
sumed despatch were allowed to go uncon-
tradicted, another item would bo added to
the stock -in -trade of every. anti-Catholic
fanatic. '
As this item from the Mail has been com-
mented upon by several, and republished in
other journals, I would ask you in fairness,
to give to this statement of fact, the same
prominence as was accorded to the slander-
ous misstatements in the despatch of your
correspondent of Nov. lst. Yours truly,

Jealous Nettie Riedler's Victim Dies of
Her Wounds.
An Omha despatch says : Capt. Hattie
Smith, of the Salvation Army, who was shot
.in the' street here by Nettie Biedler, of
Council Bluffs, died on Monday. When it
was known that her chance of recovery was
slight, the members of the Army, who had
thronged the room, fell on their knees and
prayed fervently in true Salvation Army
style that her life might be spared. At times
the voice of the dying girl was heard clear
above the others as she implored that this
cop might pass from her. Among those
kneeling at her bedside was Lieut. Berry, of
Boone, Ia,, to whom' Capt. Smith was soon
to have been married. , He sat all night by
his dying fiancee, offering' such consolation
as his bruised heart could suggest. e
Swindled the Chicagoans.
A Chicago despatch says : A dozen or
more Board of Trade firms claim to have
been fleeced out of sums of money ranging
from $500 to $1,200 each by Sidney L.
Winters. Until a few days ago he was the
postmaster at Woodbine, Ia., but is now
fleeing from detectives. The fraud, accord-
ing to the story, was accomplished by means
of forged bills of lading, which were not
suspected until they wore discovered by the
general claim agent of the North-Western
road.
An order was issued by the Russian
Government on Saturday, specially aimed at

Mrs. Davis, and Virginia should lead the,

proper that we should put her on the same
footing that the Government places the
widows of its Presidents. The duty de-
voives upon the States that composed the
Confederacy. . As the Confederacy is a
thing of the past, it cannot be a very costly
precedent for usf inasmuch as 'there will
never be another Confederacy ; therefore
never another widow of a Confederate
President."

Col. penison's OiC Rand Shot.
Toronto Telegram : One of the worst of
Cola Denison's celebrated speedy judgments
was reversed Thursday, by their Lordships
Chief Justice Galt and Justice McMahon.
Their decision set a boy at liberty after a
confinement of more than five months and
saved him from spending five years in the
penitentiary and enduring fifteen lashes.
Seldom has there been on record a case
that better illustrated the inhumanity of
some detectives and the off -hand methods of
Col. Denison. The boy was taken from his
mother's house late one night. He left be-
hind him the assurance that everything was
all right and that he would return in the
morning. The next day the poor simpleton
pleaded--guilty.•----He was not: allowed time to
consult his mother, and the Magistrate
promptly sentenced him to five years in the
penitentiary and' fifteen lashes. The arrest,
the trial, the conviction, the sentence, were
all disgraceful.. Detective Watson. must
have'urged the boy to plead guilty. Either
under the pressure of advice from the detec-
tive or in ignorance as to the nature of the
offence, the prisoner. admitted guilt. Surely
it was Col. Denison's business to warn the
culprit that his plea, wrecked all chance of
liberty. But no 1 The detective was there
to secure the credit of a conviction, and the
Magistrate was there to fill the penitentiary.
Why should they pause ? It only takes
the court about three minutes to sentence a
man to penitentiary for five years. It takes
the man somewhat longer to serve the term.
Fortunately for himself the boy had a
mother who was not too poor to retain J. G.
Holmes. The lawyer made a great fight and
finally freed the prisoner. There may be
other boys sent to penitentiary under simi-
lar circumstances, who having no money to
right the wrong are suffering the injustice
done to them by a. high-pressure police
Magistrate. Col. Denison is generally right,
but the case in point is proof that he is not
above trifling away a. prisoner's liberty and
ruining his life in order that he may get
through his days' work before 11 a. m.

Continental lawyers are greatly inter-
ested in a legal case to be decided soon in
the English courts. A subject of the Queen
left his wife in London and went to Naples,
where he fell in love with an Italian
•
woman. Persuading her that he was a,
single man, she consented to follow him to'
the altar. To his great relief he received
word on the day of his second marriage that
his English wife had died. Easy of heart,
he returned to London, but was at once
arrested at the instance of his gush rela-
tives on a charge of bi,a ,? e
insisted
that the charge was gro ' dlcs:, as the Eng-
lish wife had departed his life on the day
he had been united to his present better
half. The relatives, however, were able
to prove that, taking into consideration the
difference in time between London and
Naples, he was the /husband of two wives
for 23 minutes. ' The trial will prove
whether the relatives have a right to prose-
cute the man on these grounds. The case,
so -far as can be learned, is unique, but it
bears upon contracts of a different nature
and kind.
Once when I was in Rome I was shown a
MS., from which I copied this : " T here
appeared in these days a man of great virtue
named Jesus Christ, who is yet living among
us, and of the 'Gentiles is accepted for a
Prophet of Truth, but His disciples call
Him the Son of God. He raiseth the death
and cureth all manner of diseases. A man
of stature somewhat tall, and comely, with
a very reverend countenance, expressing
both love and fear. His hair is of the color
of a chestnut, full ripe ; ,plain to the ears,
whence downward it is more orient, curling
and waving about his Shoulders.
" In the middle of his head is a seam or
partition of his hair, after the manner of the
Nazarities. The forehead plain ani very
delicate. His face without a spot or wrinkle,
beautiful with a lovely coloring. His nose
and mouth are formed as nothing can be
reprehended. His beardt hickish, in calor
like his hair ; not very long, but forked.
His look innocent and natural. His eyes
gray, clear and quick.
" In reproving he is terrible ; in admon-
ishing, very courteous and fair spoken.
Pleasing in conversation, mixed with gravity.
It cannot be remembered that: any have
seen him laugh, but many have seen him
weep. In proportion of bedyenost excellent.
His hands and arms most delicate to behold.
