AN ECCLESIASTICAL TRIAL.
The Rev. Howard MacQueary of
Canton, Ohio, ' is being tried this week
by the Episcopal diocese in which he
resides, on a charge of heresy. The
counts of the indictment are two : One
is that he doubts or disbelieves the
article of the Apostles’ creed which
says that Jesus Christ was “born of the
Virgin Mary ;” the other, a similar
constructive rejection of the latter
article of the same creed, “the resur-
rection of the body.” The real issue,
however, as now appears, is not whether
Mr. MacQueary is within the limits of
orthodoxy in interpreting the Hebrew
word for “virgin” (as used in the Old
Testament prophecy translated ‘ ‘a virgin
shall be with child”) as meaning mere-
ly “young woman ;” nor is it whether
“the resurrection of the body” neces-
sarily means the actual re-collection of
the particles of matter that constitute
a man’s body as buried at his funeral.
For the real question is the Protestant
'claim to the right of private judgment.
Hundreds if not thousands of the
over 4,000 Episcopal clergyman in the
United States, and thousands of minis-
ters in other Protestant denominations
who utterly reject his interpretation of
these two doctrines of the most concise
creed of orthodoxy, are heartily with
him in affirming his right to interpret
them in that way if he chooses, and still
to remain in good standing as a minis-
ter. of a Protestant sect. They claim
that the one principal which Protestant
sects have'in common is the right of
private judgment, exercised in the
light of intelligent reading of the Bible.
For this reason Mr. MacQueary’s trial
rises above the comparative unimport-
ance of a mere church prosecution for
heresy, and becomes an event of im-
portance to the whole religious world.

EMJIIA. ABBOTT.
VVe'will never more see poor Emma
Abbott’s Smile or hear her resonant
stage kiss. It can be said of her that
she was as highly reSpected as she was
popular, and the pleasure she has given
to many thousands by the melody of
her voice will not be forgotten until
her last hearer has followed her to the
grave; And the dramatic profession
owes her a debt of gratitude as well as
the public. It was Emma Abbott who
rose and spoke out in a Tennessee
prayer meeting in protest against the
sweeping charge of a bigot that all the
women of the stage are immoral. That
speech opened the eyes of a good many
who had been blind from prejudice,
and made the country at large a little
more just to these who stand anda little
more charitable to those who fall before
the temptations of a most exacting life.

NEW YORK, Jan. 9.——Pretty little Rosie,
the 16-year-old daughter of Louis Martra-
gelo, an Italian street swoeper‘, Went out
from under her father’s reof less than
twelVe months ago the blushing bride of
Alfonso Braggo, her countryman, who
had wooed her for a year and won by sheer
persistence. He was more than twice the
age of Rosie. ugly of looks and deeply
scarred by smallpox. His reputation was
not of the best, and he was known to be
quarrelsome to boot. There was no lack
of croakers at the wedding to predict that
the union would come to no good in spite
of Braggo’s soda water factory that prom-
ised to Rosie a better support than she
could have got by marrying on her own
level—the level of the dump.
That was the consideration that had per-
suaded the old street sweeper to give his
daughter to Braggo, and as he sat talking
it over by the stove with her mother in
their tenement, that seemed lonely with—
out Rosie, they agreed between pulls at
their black clay pipes that she was a good
girl and that it would come out all right.
But it did not come out all right, though
Rosie tried her best to be a good wife to
her master, to whom she had been thus
sold, body and soul. Before many days he
began to growl at her and then to beat her
. Then She Left Him.
He has a little boy of an earliar mar-
riage that filled his new mother’s ears with
stories of his villainous cruelty. When at
last she was told, too, that Braggo had an-
other wife in town whom he did not beat
or abuse she left him, and Went back to the
street sweepe'r’s home in Twelfth street.
In a family council over the stove, after
she had told her story, it was agreed that
Braggo was a bad man and that she
should stay.
And stay she did, not with her hus-
band’s consent, though. He came, not
once but many times, to demand that she
should return to him, . threatening all
manner of things if she did not, but she
steadily refused. It had become current
talk in the neighborhood that Braggo had
beaten and abused his first wife until she
died, and Rosie did not hanker after her
fate. The had blood in Braggo grew hot-
ter, and at last it boiled over when he met
Rosie one afternoon coming home from
the sweater’s shop where she sewed. He
grabbed her byvthe arm and insisted that
she should go with him then and there.
Attempted to Shoot Her.
W'hen she broke away from him and ran
shrieking down the street he pulled a
pistol and‘shot at her three or four times.
It was well that his rage made his aim un—
steady so that he could not hit, and she
ésCapcd unhurt into a. neighborIng tene-
ment,” while the neighbors drove Braggo
away. '
He was not arrested, though he should
have been. No one made any charge
against him, and the police probably never
heard of the shooting. The neighborhood
is filled with Italians, who everywhere
pursue the policy of non—interference in
private quarrels that is characteristic of
the swarthy southerners. It is only when
somebody is killed that the police - are
called in.
A mere stab wound or a bullet that
doesn’t kill is scored down—“hung up,”
as it were—against a day of reckoning
that is seldom long in coming. “I fix him
myself” is the motto of New York’s Italy,
and pretty soon Mott or Mulberry street
echoes with the sounds of another fight
and somebody is “fixed.” The account is
squared. In this case Rosie’s friends were
slow in coming to the front, for Braggo
had a. particularly bad name. He showed
himself worthy of it by threatening when
he couldn’t have his way to kill the whole
family.
Flung Vitriol in His Face.
Apparently he really meant it, and de-
cided to begin from the top, with the old
man. The street sweeper was up before
sunrise Thursday morning, getting ready
to go with his broom to his beat where he
was to sweep today. Looking out of the
window, Rosie saw her for her go down the
street with Braggo, who had probably been
waiting for him below, and now seemed to
be arguing her case with him. She saw
them almost-reach the Corner, but she did
not see her husband suddenly raise his
hand and dash something from a bottle he
held in the face of her father. Some of the
bystanders saw Braggo run down the ave-
nue as the old street sweeper fell moaning
piteously on the icy pavement.
. They picked him up, writhing in fearful
pain, and carried him to his house, while
some one ran for a policeman. When the
latter had procured an ambulance Mar-
tragelo was taken to Bellevue hospital.
The stuff Braggo had thrown in his face
was vitriol—he used it in his business and
had it handy, evidently—and it had burned
him awfully, in places clear down to the
bone, and the flesh dropped off in great
chunks. The eyes had escaped, the sur-
geon said, but even so his wounds are
very severe.
“’orse Than Jack the Ripper.
The police caught Braggo, and the Ital-
ian colony was greatly excited over the
news when it was brought up by a re-
porter. Selecting an Irish tenant as their
spokesman, they charged him with the
message to the authorities that Braggo"
ought to be kept locked up for life, for “he
is worse,” added the woman on her own
account, “than Jack the Ripper.”
If half the stories they tell of him in the
colony are true he certainly is. They say
that he killed a man in Italy and fled
across the sea, for which reason he can
never go back. .
They further assert upon the authority,
they say, of his own son, that he is re-
sponsible for the death of his grandfather
as well as his first wife through neglect
and abuse. Two months ago, they say, he
shot a man in Mott street in a quarrel,
wounding him in the arm, and that twice
the police came nea'r getting him. If that
is so he will get the benefit of that little
egclapgdc, too, new that they have get him

A REVOLUTION IN CHILI.
Brought About by a Long Struggle Be—
tween the President and Congress.
LONDOX. Jan. 9.—Cable messages re-
ceived here from Buenos Ayres Thursday
announced that a revolution has broken
out in Chill. The revolution is the result
of the long struggle betheen President
Balmaseda, on the one hand, and the ma-
jority of congress on the other.
It has been feared that the president
would throw the influence of the govern-
ment into the presidential election this
year, and thus secure the succession to the
presidency of one of his own creatures, he
himself being ineligible. Congress has
repeatedly demanded the resignation or
dismissal of obnoxious ministers, but the
president has refused to comply.
What Does All This Mean?
BERLIN, Jan. 9.-The Frankfurter Zei-
tung announces that the grand duke of
Mecklenburg-Schwerin, Frederick Francis
III, has offered Prince Bismarck the presi~
deney of 1 he ministry of the Grand Duchy
of Meckleuburg-Schwerin. Prince Bis-
marck is said to have declined the grand
(luke’s kind offer. According to the story,
[Emperor William upon hearing of the pro-
posal abandoned his proposed visit to
Cannes.
The Irish Difficulty.
LONDON, J an. 9.——-’l‘lie mysterious meet-
ings between Messrs. Parnell and O’Brien
at Boulogne do not. seem to be taken very
seriously by the English Liberal press.
The Daily News suggests that Mr.
O’Brien might be better employed in co-
operating with Home Rulers on this side of
the channel rather than wasting his time
and energies in fruitless and scarcely in-
telligible conferences with Mr. Parnell at
Boulogne.
“It never seems to have struck Mr.
O’Brien to ask how any compromise he
may come to is to be enforce( .”
After saying that the American delegate
has not the slightest authority to propose
or accept the resignation of Mr. McCarthy,
The News adds: "Mr. O’Brien’s appeal to
the press for retic‘ence is touching, but he
cannot complain of us for saying that we
are glad that these par-leys have ceased.”
DUBLIN, J an. S.—According to a state-
ment in United Ireland, Mr. Parnell is
now on his way here, and will make his
first public appearance at the Limerick
meeting on Sunday next. It adds:
“He Will make an important statement.
Until then we ask our people to possess
their souls in patience. W'hatever the re-
sult of the conference may have been, of
this we all feel assured, that if there be
any way out of the present difficulty which
can save the honor of the country and re-
store the unity of the Irish party it will be
discovered by these two men, whose first
land.”
The Strike in Scotland.
GLASGOW, J an. 9.—Six thousand railroad
men are still on strike in Scotland. There
is no improvement in the movement of
goods trains. Outside subscriptions for
the relief of the strikers are coming in
so rapidly and freely as to render the men
competent to care for their families and
prolong the trouble.
TURNER DENIES IT.
He Asserts That Re Did Not Offer $55,000
for Ingnlls' Seat.
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Jan. 9.—The Times’
Washington dispatch says its representa—
tive interviewed Mr. Turner on the sub-
ject of the letter alleged- to have been
written by him and published in The Ad-
vocate regarding an offer that he is al-
leged to have made for the Kansas sena-
torship. He said that he had not seen the
text of the letter. He declared, hOWever,
that he had written no letter offering to
give $5,000 to McGrath in the event of his
(Turner’s) election to the senate 1.0 suc-
ceed Mr. Ingalls.
The letter referred to was addressed to
President Mchth, of the‘,State Alliance,
and dated Dec. 31. The following is an
extract:
I have no money to spend in :1. fight. If I sue
ceedI could and would put up 35,1101, hut- ibis
difficult to use it that way—chat is. promise in
case of success. Yet you may have some friends
who would be willing to lake sucllchancc. We

judicial district, and I can have a. United States
marshal and clerk. The first changes with ad-
ministrations, and the clerk isl‘or life. But I
guess you know I take care of my friends. We
have agreed not to agitate this bill until the elec.
tion there is over, for Ingalls would he jumped
on for all the places and injure him, or some of
the eastern fellows might try to commit. him
against it. Now, I will leave the whole matter
with you and Hill and Wilson, and abide results

OFFERED UP AS A SACRIFICE.
Winnipeg Indians Kill a Boy to Bring
Good Luck in Hunting.
VVINNIPEG, Mam, Jan. 9.——Iu June last
Blue Horn, an Indian. went hunting and
trapping in the Beaver Hills, near Fort
Saskatchewan, accompanied by a boy'
about 8 years old, the eldest son of a Vic-
toria Indian. While they Were looking at
the traps one day Blue Horn sent the boy
back to camp. When he returned ,he was
surprised to find that the boy was not
there. The other Indians in camp searched
for the boy, but did not find him.
Yesterday a. halfbreed from Beaver Lake
found in the woods not far from New
Beaver Lake trail a skeleton in a standing;
position, the arms stretched out and
wrists tied to two trees. He did not dis-
turb it, but went to tell the father of the
lost boy in order that he might see if he
could identify it. From circumstances
surrounding the affair it is evident the
lost boy had been offered as a sacrifice to
secure good luck in hunting by Indians.
As is their custom, the savages had hung
about the body bits of cloth and trinkets
to propitigate the Great Spirit.
