llore About "The Wickedest Uaa
The August number of I'uclard'g Monthly
contains a second article on "The Wiokedast
Man in New York," by Mr. Oliver Djer. We
quote tLe principal passages:
II 18 BECEftlON OV VIMTOR3.
"Since the appearance of the sketch In the
July number of this magazine Mr. Allen has
len run down with visitors, especially cler
gymen, who, he says, invariably aak for tha
VVlckedest Man In New York, to which inquiry
he promptly responds aa being the identical
individual 're'erred to.'
"Ilia reception of hia clerioal visitors ia
Sometimes exquisitely characteristic.
" 'I'm glad to see you, gentlemen,1 he says.
Walk in. Sit down. Mke yortrselves at
home. Have a copy of the Little Witndmcr's
Friend t We have to do a good deal of mis
isionary work down here, and I find the Little
Wanderer's Friend a good thing in that line.
Take it home with you and read it. Lots of
good Btuff in it. Good musio, too. I like to
Save clergymen come here. I want to do all
the good I can; and I don't know any class of
men who'd be more benefitted by association
with me than clergymen. So, come, often,
gentlemen, and stay late.'
HIS 011X105 OF RELKilOCS PATERS.
"Allen also frequently plays off his Observer
and Independent on his clerical visitors; gets
them into theological discussions, and twists
and harasses them in all manner of good
natured ways, always taking care to keep
himself master of the situation under all cir
cumstances. "One curious development of Allen'B cha
racter was manifested in his anxiety to know
how the religious papers would treat hid case
as set forth in our sketch. His tenacity of
connection with the religions press is, in
truth, a mopt singular and significant fact
far more significant than he himself has any
idea of.
" 'What possible interest can you take in
religious papers J" we once asked him. 'Why
do you read the Observer and the Independent r'
" 'Oh,' he replied, 'I'm liberal in my views,
and impartial in ray tastes. Anil as to reading,
why, I read anything, from Tom Faine to the
Bible. Besides, I must have my theology and
my. whisky "straight." I don't want either of
'em watered or adulterated. The Observer and
Independent are out-and-outers one on one
Bide and t'other on t'other. They strike out
from the shoulder, and get in a lick under the
ear every time. When the Observer gets hold
of one of your loose, milk-and-water Chris
tians, or some fellow with an unsound, new
fangled theology, it shakes him just as one of
Kit Burns' pups shakes a rat; and then the
Independent gets mad, and pitches in, and
(shakes the Observer just as Kit shakes the pup
when he gets mad. That's my style. I like
a lively Gospel and a muscular religion. I go
in for the church militant, and pride myself
on being a high private in the same army in
Which the Observer and Independent are field
marshal. I'm content to carry the knapsack,
and let them wear the plumes.'
FONDNESS FOR MUSIC.
"An additional and pointed illustration of
Allen's fondness for sacred music was recently
given to us by Sergeant George E. Towns, of
the Fonrth Precinct Metropolitan Police. In
the winter of lSo'4, when the Sergeant, then a
patrolman, wa walking his beat with his com
rade, Frederick Gilbert, they stopped, about 3
o'clock in the morning, to kick their heels on
Allen's stoop. It was bitter cold, and, to keep
their hearts warm, they began iO hum some
heart-stirring old hymns. After a while they
Struck into old Coronation:
"All hall the power of Jesus' name,
.Let acgols prustrata full,
BrlDg form tlie royal diadem,
And crown Him Lord of all."
As they concluded the hymn a noise wi3
heard inside of Allen's bar-room, and Mr.
Towns exolaimed:
" ' Hush, Gilbert 1 there's some one in
there 1"
" It is only me, Towns,' responded Allen,
opening the door and stepping to the threshold
in hia night rig, bitter cold aa it was. 'I heard
you humming old Coronation, and had to get
up and come down. I oouldnot stand it, with
that old tune buzzing in my ears. Old Coro
nation will always fetch me at any season of
the year, and at any time or the day or night.'
"On the third day of July last, as Dr. J. M.
Ward, a well-known Christian philanthropist,
was passing Allen's saloon, at about 10 o'clock
in the morning, he found him sitting near the
door with a copy of Packard's Mont My for July
in hia hand, intently studying our sketch of
him. On accosting Allen he wa3 kindly
greeted in return; and, after some conversa
tion about the sketch, Dr. Ward spoke to
him, as ia hia custom on every tit ocoasion,
about his soul's welfare and the salvation of hia
children.
"In response to this Allen called out,
" 'Chester, come here,' and his Bon came to
hia Bide.
" 'Now, Chester,' said he, 'sing "Nearer, my
God, to Thee," for the Dootor.'
"And thereupon Allen himself led off, and
father and son sang:
" 'Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee,
E'en though It be a cross
That ralsetb me;
Btl 11 , all ray aong shall he,
Nearer, My Ood, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee.'
"And there that strange man sat in hisdanoe
house, on that third day of July, with the door
open to the street, and his little sou standing
by his side, and led the child in song through,
the whole five versea of that hymn, in as de
votional and reverent a manner, Dr. Ward
nays, as he ever witnessed.
HORROR OP IKFU'BLITY.
"Allen is solicitous that little Chester should
not have his mind poisoned by anything verg
ing on infidelity. On one occasion, when visi
tors were present, an infidel came into the
dancing-saloon, about 11 o'clock at night, and
began to ventilate his belief, or rather his nn
Lelief. He was surprised at being at once
taken up by Allen and demolished. The un
believer was no match for the Wickedest Man
in theology, philosophy, or common sense.
He soon retired, rather crestfallen; and after
the door had closed on him, Allen turned to
Borne of those present and exclaimed, in tones
of grief and bitterness:
'My God 1 gentlemen, to think of a man's
coming into my louhh and uttering suoh sen
timents as those ! Why, I wouldn't have had
my family heard that man for anything I And
Chester, especially1
"Here, seeing the looks of astonishment on
eome of the victors' faces, he exclaimed:
" 'I know what you're thinking of. You
think that Chester hears worse than that. But
he den't. He hears me swear, and he hears
the girls when they get mad or drunk, and
they ran talk bad enough when they get
agoing, God knows; but I don't care for that
That inn't anything. That don't kill. But to
have Chester get th notion that the Bible
isn't true, or to have him hear any mau deny
the existence of God, or attempt to make God
anything less than God why, damn it to hell,
gentlemen, I wouldn't have such notions aa
those put into Chester's head for all the
world !
"Was there ever another each man aa this
incomprehensible Water street danoe-house-
keeper f '
LOVE FOR LkW AST) ORDEB.
"Another singular fact about thla man la
his passion for law and order. The law, ia
bis opinion, must be respected and obeyed.
TLe Hon. Thomas C. Acton, President of the
Board of Metropolitan Police, Jjsays that
during the riots of 19G3 he swore Alien in aa
a special policeman, and that he was a pvrfeet
lion on the side of the authorities all through
those frightful times. So trustworthy and true
heatted waa he, ao implicitly could hia word
be relied upon, that Mr. Acton swore in every
man that he gent tobiin for that purpose, with
out any questions, so sure was he of hta juvlg
ment and loyalty. And in not a single in
stance did Mr. Acton find that hia confidence
in the man had been nils planed.
"The police of the Fourth Ward bear similar
testimony to this man's orderliness, and hia
love of public and especially Sabbath decorum.
He renders mo?t rfii'dent aid to the police in
keeping the crowds that assemble at the out
door Sabbath meetings in order.
"Our Wickedest Man was not pre
sent at the meeting above described, else
thiLgs might have gone differently. He has a
most unique way of quieting rowdies on such
occasions. He takes the ringleader by the
collar, and jerks him out of hi boots ami into
decorum by a single application of muscles.
Or, he seizes some obstreperous disturber by
the throat, and impressively exclaims:
" 'You lousy hound, what do you mean by
treating the ministers of the Go i pel with di s
respectf When a gentleman takes the trou
ble to bring yon a message from Heaven for
nothing, arn't vou man enough to listen to
him respectfully? If I catch you making any
more disturbance here, I'll boot you into the
dock!'
"Another of his 'means of grace' ia to take
a boitteroua worshipper by the collar and
say:
" 'Come here and take a drink you son of a
thief!' And after administering a dose of
Bourbon to him, be gives him a jerk and a
Bhove, and says, 'Now go mind your Gospel,
and see that you treat the preacher respect
fully, or I'll button your nose over your eye!'
"By such measures, and others of a similar
character, this phenomenal creature, at .in
out-door Sabbath meeting, will keep in order
a crowd that it would seem could be reduced
to subjection by no other meaus. Ilia own
ciiticisms on the speakers, meanwhile, are as
unsparing as they are original. He has a
keen perception of their iitnass or unfitness,
as the case may be; and no one rejoices more
than he does when a speaker proves himself
called of Heaven to the work, nor grnvea
more poignantly wh'ii one bring tun cause
he attempts to serve into contempt by L.U in
capacity and folly.
"OKIT AJD OKACE."
"It must be that there is something in th'13
man's blood which makes him as etger for
sacred songs, and for religious services, as the
setter is for game. Hid declaration, quoted in our
former article, that 'grit and (race run through
his family as the Tigiis aud the Jordau ruu
through the Holy Laud,' was no mere idle
boast. To those three clerical brothers of his
we hope yet to see a fourth added. John Allen,
aa a preacher of the Gospal to the out-door
poor of New Yoik, aud to the vagabonds of the
streets and docks, would be the Bjauerges of
the metropolis.
BENEVOLENCE.
"Allen is tender-hearted towards poor chil
dren. He gathers them into hia internal plane
by dozens aud scores during the inclement
weather, and especially In the wiuter, and
often not only feeds, but clothes them. II
also sends them to Sabbath-school. Some
times he goes into the streets on the Sabbath
and gathers up the vagrant children in squads,
and marches them oil to the Mission Saobalh
fchool in Dover street, or to some other simi
lar institution elsewhere. Aud he looks to
their behavior, too, after he gets them into
Sabbath-school, and take3 a fatherly interest
in their welfare.
"This mau takes especial pleasure in help
ing the most helpless cases. Licensed venders
come in for a goodly share of hia friendly at
tentions. A JOKE ON THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.
"Among the most recent 'distinguished'
visitors to Mr. Allen's abode were several
large deputations from the Democratio Na
tional Convention, whan that institution was
lately nourishing in Fourteenth street. One
company of country delegates, numbering 30,
went down to No. 30-1 Water street, under
the escort of Captain Thome, of the Fourth
Precinct; and we are informed that as many as
sixty delegatea were present at one time, fill
ing both bar-room and dancing saloon, aud
protruding upon the stoop and sidewalk.
They had all read our aooouut of the
Wickedest Man, and were anxious to see him.
He was courteoua and cordial, aa he always is
to visitors. One of the delegates remarked:
" 'I suppose this is about the worst section
of the city, Mr. Allen, from all accounta 1 ' To
which Mr. Alien quietly replied:
" 'Well, yes, it has had that reputation; but
just now it is completely eclipsed by Four
teenth street !'
"Thia retort waa received with applause,
and the delegatea hailed 'The Wickedest' as a
man and a bi other.
SUMMING CP.
"According to our view of the matter, the
pre-eminent wickedness of John Allen comes
from his wilful perversion of hia own original
excellence of character, the prostitution of
extraordinary taleuta to base uses, and the
persistent violation of divine laws, the truth
and binding force of which he clearly perceives
and steadfastly believes.
"There is a plentiful supply of man in New
York who are far more vile, beastly, and re
pulsive than thia Wickedest Man. In point
of fact, be is not repulsive; he does not impress
one who knows him as a 'vile fellow,' but as a
bold, cbivalrio emissary of Pandemonium,
who has good points enough to enable him to
serve his Satauio chieftain with a force and
efficiency no mere bestial satrap of hell coald
ever achieve.
"We are glad that he ha3 the graoe to be
grieved by our 'showing him up as we have
found him,' according to agreement; glad that
he winces at the thought ol his chilireu's some
day reading our sketch. For, as we paid in
the beginning, we like the man, despite his
wickedness, and would do muck to rescue
him from the fate to which he seems to be
rnshing.
john allen's promise.
"At 4 o'olock P. M, on Friday, the 10th day
of July, after the foregoing had beeu put in
type, we had an interview with John Allen,
in tbej private room of Mr. Acton, and in Mr.
Acton's presence, at Poliue Headquarters, No.
300 Mulberry street. Allen protnted against
being called the Wickedest Man iu New York.
Bald be:
" 'I am not the wickedest man in thla city.
There are lots of worse men than I am men
who never help the poor nor poor children,
nor do anything for anybody; and Mr. Acton
here knows that I expend hundreds of dollars
in that way.'
"We then stated whv wa considered him
the 'Wickedest Man in New York,' quoting ,
the paragraph above, in which we embody our
yiews on that point. Thin seemed to be a new j
view of the subject to him an 1 on our ofT-tr-lug
to state anything,, an coming from h in,
Which he wished to have said, he replied:
"'Well, jtiBt fay. that I have bouih gml
points, and that I am not the Wickedest Miu
In New Yoik by a long way.' 1
"Mr. Acton then tackled him about hia
keeping such a den, and sent the truth home
to hia heart that, by staving there, ha would
blight the life of his idolized boy.
"'And now, John,'! continued Mr. Acton,
'I want you to proui'se us that you will q lit
that place, and give jour children a lair
chance.' .
"Allen heaitated and remonstrated for a long
time, but finally sail:
" 'Wfcll, I promise to do it.'
" 'When will you quit V we asked.
" 'The first of next May,' he replied.
" 'Say September,' sai I Mr. Acton.
" 'I cau't do it iojpo.-sible. Vou eonll not
get out of here iu a week. My o'hr pr.'p -rty
is rented, and I cau't manage it before Ml.'
" 'Yea you can, John, peroieted Mr. At ton;
'say September.'
" 'Well, if I can sell out my bminesa, I will,'
he at last said.
" 'No, John; be a man and do the clean
thing. Quit the busiuers, turn your house
into a home for poor girls, aud reuorate that
whole region. You can do it it you'll ouly
try.'
"Allen was powerfully affected, and at last
said:
" 'Well, gentlemen, I give you my word that
I'll quit the business by the first of ti"xt Miy,
sure, and aa much Buoner as I can I' aud ho
rushed from the room.
' 'He'll do it,' said Mr. Anton, as Allen dis
appeared. 'John never goes back on hia
pledged word. The fact ia you have hit him
in the very core of his heart. Your sketch
painted his very soul, and the picture is con
stantly before him. He has been in a state of
unrest ever since. He never knew before how
wicked he is, nor what his life is leading to.
That boy of his is the strong point. He wor
ships that child, and wants him to grow up a
good and great man, and now he begins to see
how cruel it is to keep the child in such a
place, lietbides, John himself has good points,
lots of 'em. He really wants to be a man. He
was up here with me an hour and a half last
Sunday morning, talking about these matters.
What there is bad in him can be cured, an I
you'll fetch him, snre. Let the people keep
prating for him. God rules in this world, and
He will bring these matters all out straight.' "

for miles t i siia-ch a night's rcpo.e ou the brink
of these l.oxlous kilns. Our guide next h-ads us

thrubs thicker, and the roaJ in tho middle of
which we notice that an iroa truinw.ty has been

qunrr.es- makes a Hidden "dcfoeut. The next
1111 nine we bnu onmdves iu front ot the arched
eiilriii.ee to a dat k p.iltery ov rbunir wttn dense
clusters ot tall slender trees, (striking a light,
we penetrate kotne distance into this subterra
nean pallery, burnintr luidtpr-niaichs as we
advnnca; but there is nothing remarkable to he
Men In tt, so we are content to take our guide's
rtescrtption of its extent. Ue hrorms us that
the chiel gallery u nearly a mile iu length, in a
straipht direction, in audition to whieh there are
numerous short brunches. Ittbeu makes a deep
descent and extends for a e Jiisidcrable distance
fartl cr. When the police come, as they peri
odically do at nigln-iime, iu a body some lorty
or ntty strong, and, atter planting a cordon
rouLd the quarries, make a fe zure of every
body whom they cau catch wilhiu its circuit,
tbe mora experienced habitues, our euide in
formed n. invariably make lor this tuuuel, and
si cicte themselves iu one or othsr of its uiiuy
pallcrics until all danger of arrest has passed
aay. It v. as only ou rare occasion", be said,
that the pclice ventured to explore these
unbitri anean passnges, as a considerable num
ber rd men provided with lighted torches was
requisite lor this duty; moreover, they never
tnout-ht it worth while to leave a guard to
watch the entrance, as the chances were the
bjcu ihy wished to capture would sneak out
wi h foaie of the regular workmen, and so
CFCupe.
The men who fr'quent the quarries, when
surpiUed by the police, very rarely veutuie
upon rtBistance; still, about uigineen months
ago, Foriit. depperute ruilittn, woo knew well
enough wbut ther late would bo if they
allowed thenmelves to be enptured, seized bold
of tbe first police agents who darted
nuldeuly upon them, aud tried to throw
them into th burning furnaces; luckily,
however, without success. When toe
police Lave scoured the quarries, they march
tteir prisoners some fifteen or twenty aoreast,
with torcb-bcareis and police agents leading
the way, and w ith other agents on either side
and briuging up the rear. In this Way the pri
honers aie conduced to the posie de police at
La Yilletie, about 11 mile aud a half distant,
where they are searched; usually without tiud
icg a sou upon nine-tenths of their number.
It is no uncommon thing to find leis tbau
htdfudozen sous iu possession of the entire
party. At the la-t desceat made by the police
feixt.Wwo prisoners were taken, of whom the
tide t was sixty-eight years ot ae, and almost
total. y blind: he was kLOvu to have beu a
teddy workmau for til ty years until he lost bis
feilir. Tne youngest wa a boy of ten, who had
bet u tinned adrut in Ike world by his mother.
Ameiig these sixty-two persons were no Icssthun
fi'iiy-iour who coutessed to haviuj; been
bronght tin to tome ieaulir employment.
i ad thete included au optician, a wan-li-nuiker,
a ptiuter, a llirist, aud a nablio
letter-wr.ter, besides lumuben of all the
11 ere common trades. One man hat beeu a
valet de cbaiiitire, and on beii.e anked how hn
bi cuniP reduced to tue ragged, launched state
in w hich he wus found, lepliei th.it he bad Ioh
nil lii avlng by tho bankruptcy ot aotiie indi
vidual to whom he had Intruded tlictu, aud had
fooii ul'ter lout his Diace ih'OML'h ttie death jf
hi niaf-ttr, und Iia1 ever since beeu unable to
obtain another. Huiingihe firm few weeks ho
Vtiiooul ol I live he sold hi clotnes, ouu gar
ment alter another, he id, to live npou the
' piocicus and pay hi rcuu When clothes and
money wire alike tone, tili landlord turiicl
bun cut ot Uoorf, and he could bud no one who
would take him iu; lie thicfor went to tue
, Ctrriert to bleep, and ly ug ou the b-ire grouud
kuoii w cue out thv clothes he ha I on, aod til i ho
I whs reduced to tlie miserable plielit iu wbici
he had been found. Ainong a p irty capr jrd
our occasion iinta luuu wuo uiaiiiieu 10 oe n
Irench vitcouut. Wheu nuked, according to tho
usual j raciicP, what ra le or pro'Pfsloa hp fol
lowed, he replied thut be sbelle t waluutb for
tho mitfket people at the "halles." Another
man, tukeu at the tume lime, said he had been
a bunker.
We now returned to tho man lu char ol
the kiln fires, aud entered into conversation
with him. lb; informed u that the people who
liequeuted the quarries usuully but by loir
o'clock in the morning or eirlter; at auy
rate, wheu the workmen airived at tive o'clock
they invariably lound the place perfectly clear.
Ficm what this mau told us, it appear. d
that a sort of tacit undprstauding existed
bvtween the people coanwud with the quarries
on 'he ono hxrd nn1 the. vasabondi whr fre
quent tnctn on the other. The tjriner alio v
tue latter to re nam iu uiiil.t.tiirbv.1 possesion of
tbe plme during the iilpht-tlme, and lu return
for tnin act ot ctTility the thieves and vermis
who profit by it never datutiRo the kilns neittur
do tbey ever earry awav the tnor heavy tool
which the workman leave behind them.
Some time ago the proprietor of a portion of the
qnanles complained to the police of tk; ur.avi
tnorlzed invasion of bis property at uu
rrasonable hours, which resulted iu tbe vm
rn'e being' kept away for a time; bat
one nltfht they revenged themselves by
(ettintr fire to an'lrmene ttcckot (nirots valued
at 6010 francs since which uccaslon thy have
never been ialerlt red with. The amo men as
sured na tbat a few years a?o gangs of fellows
used to congreerate round the entrance to the
Cairicres, and rob any workman employed there
who was Imprudent enough to sally forth alone.
Men engaged at the quarrie of an evening used
ftlno to be plundered ot the bread und wiu ihey
had provided themselves with. Only a btt'e
more than a year ago a Bang of fellows, he told
us, brought a whole sheep, which 'hev had
stolen, with them to the qnnrrie, and skinnrd,
( liilrd, cooked, and ate up every scrap of it
