Assault and ltohbery of John tl'lluru.

Last evening about 11 o'clock, John
O‘Hara, who lives in (iraniteviilc, was
going home. its had passed over the
top of lligh street and was half way
down tho llttlo hill leading tofirsnito-
villo when he noticed that the street
lamp was not burning. lie had just
passed the lump when a plan stepped
from somewhere in the vicinity of the
stone wall and said, “Good evening. Mr.
O'Hara." Mr. O‘Hara answered him and
started on again when he was met by
another man who spoke to him and ask-
hinr if he was going home. Mr. O'llora
said he was, and the man said if O‘Hara
had no objections he would walk along
with him. The two started oil together,
and while the second stranger engaged
O‘Hara in conversation, it is supposed
that the first stranger stole up behind
him and struck him on the head with
a club, rendering him unconscious. This
done the two rifled his pockets, gr tting

2.00 in money which had been sent to
him from parties in Stamford, naiiver
watch and chitin, bunch of keys and a
pipe, They left O‘Hara in the road on-
conscious. This morning about 5 o'clock
as Michael Donovan was coming to this
city to work he discovered O‘llsrs lying
in the road and took him home. Mr.
U'llnrn feels pretty badly today, physic-
ally, and grieved over his losses, as he
was a poor man and had waited for the
money a long time. The parties evidentc
ly knew O‘llnrs had the money. Noth-
ing has been heard of the robbers.

A rumv I’OIX‘I' 0' LAW

“'Irlch llul Arlsol From the Contest Be-
tween 3 Parish Print and Illa flock.

A Catholic parish in Bridgeport is in
the midst of interueciue warfare. Path.
tl’ Cremiu, the parish priest, has disliked
the doings of the St. Augustine Temper-
ance and Literary society and has frown.
ed upon a fair which is now in progress
under itI auspices. He has threatened
to denounce from the altar bliss Maggie
C. Dunn, the soprano of the church, if
she persists in attendance at one of the
tables at the fair.

Miss Dunn‘s friends are up in arms and
have engaged a lawyer, who has served
notice upon the priest that if be de-
nouuccs bliss Dunn from the alter her
will be made dcfendsut in a suit for
defamation of character.

A very nice question of law is involved
for it has never been passed upon legally}
how far a priest' a utterances from the
pulptt are to be considered privileged

Lives Only for Ills lousy.

A Stonington correspondent writes: A!
metropolitan daily published last Satur-
day evenings tbrco-eolumupketch of a
ammo than who has heme
character for the, last hull s century,
Zebulon Hancox. About all there is to
his life] in a nutshell is that he caught
fish, sold ’em, saved his money. and with
the accumulations has bought lamb-built
houses, rents them, and more money
keeps coming in, and in the meantime
he is living on almost nothing, hardlme
expending from year to year as much
cash as it costs to keep a cow. His en.
tire life has been but an illustration of
industry and miscrly economy. A
“financial success,” and yet with all his
money, who would exchange their life
for his? Isn't the moral to be learned by
such a life that there is or should be
something else to live for besides money.
