days. Although this Is supposed to be
season of joy and thanksgiving, the faith
of tho two great titles of New York and
Brooklyn In the eia of universal brother
hood and peace, was severely shocked by
the railroad tlo-up which occurred two days
before Christmas. It tho Mayor of the
city or the Governor of the State, or the
President of the United States had Issued
a proclamation suspending public travel at
such a time, I should have looked for
revolution. Yet three or four car drivers
and conductors, calling themselves the
Executive Committee, met In a dirty hall
near a low rumholc, and three hours before
daylight on Thursday morning Issued
proclamation which threw live thousand
men out of work, and virtually suspended
public travel for seven hundred thousand
people and injured the mercantile interests
of tho city more than a million of dullars,
It was a rude awakening from our dream
of peace; blood was shed, life was taken

Not in my memory have so many dis
tinguished marriages taken place in a week
havo occurred bctweon Christmas and
Now Year's, and singularly enough many
of tho most marked marriages have been
among our rich Hebrews. The marriage
rite with them Is no everyday affair; It Is
tho event of their lives, an affair to be re
membered to their latest day. On the oc
casion of a wealthy Hebrew marrl.igo lilt
week, tho housa was a solid bank of costly
flowers and tare plants, from tha kitchen
to tho roof, and eyery ono knows that uch
display at mitt winter is exceedingly cost-
A little bouquet of fine roies for the
opera, such aa a lacy would wear at ncr
corsage, costs five dollars, and her wera
lmmcnso vases full of them, they hurj in
festoons and strings across the rooms
everywhere; they were banked against the
wall where tha brldo and bridegroom stood
under a beautiful floral bell. The best man
and other groomsmen were each presented
with a magnificent diamond pin, find each
of the bridesmaids was presented with her
rcss hi full and & magnificent pair of soll-
ttlre car-rings. The father of tho brldo Is
many times a millionaire, and the bride

were exprsssly Impeitcd for the occasion.
mention this as one of the weddings, bat
there have been a number this winter that
bring back V.:e visions of tho Arabian
Nights.
It seems as if there was a rivalry among
the vi calthy classes lo try and outdo each
other, though I am free to confess that one
of our richest mon set all the others an ex
ample by which the whole cf them might
profit. That was young George Gould, the
son of Jay Gould. He found a beautltnl
and virtuous woman whom he loved and
he told her so; tin offered her his hand and
married her; he took her to his home like
a d:ccnl man; there was no fun and feath-
rs about It, no attempt at display, though
If h: desired It ho could have done It wltl
out counting the cost. All the parties were
satisfied who wero Immediately concerned,
and if Mrs. Grundy did not like it she could
lump It. Mr. Gould and his beautiful wife
acted in a particularly sensible way,' and in
this. age of snobs and shoddy we cheerfully
accord him all praise.
A shock, Indeed, to the town was the
announcement of General John A. Logan's
death. It only seems the other day that he
was the cynefeurc of all eyes In the grandest
funeral procession that this continent has
cyer seen, as he pronounced his loving
eulogy over his dead cemmandor a scrvico
which tender and loving hearts will not for
get to pay him. In New York, we knew
ldm well, and tiad he been at the head of
the Republican ticket, Instead of the second
place, there was little doubt cf his ability
to carry the State ef New "V ork for the Re
publicans. Ho was fortunate In one thing
In the possession of a wife whs Is the
model of an American wife and mother
never man tiad truer, more devoted, untir
ing and self-sacrificing friend than John
A. Logan had In his wife. JITille tho
sweetest and gentlest wife and mother that
eyer blessed a household, she could shine
as a queen In the grandest company ever
seen In this land. I have seen her in the
quiet of her home, quite an humble one In
Washington, and I have seen her surround
cd by a brilliant throng at a Piesldent's
levee, and she filled every position more
completely than any other woman it has
ever been my good fortune to know. It
will bo a sad New Year to her her life was
so completely bound up in that of tier gal
lant husband and she has the sincere com
miseratlon and sympathy of evory one who
can appreciate wifely honor and wifely
devotion.
As all roads lead to Rome, so all sensa
tions of any consequence are traceable to
New York. A man kills himself In an ob
scure town In Connecticut, and his death
involves an insurance of nearly half a mil
lion of dollars. Of course, he belonged In
New York. Payne, the miser, who ldd
away a couple of million dollars somewhere,
lived in New York for twenty years,
If
anybody's wife runs away with anybody
else they rush right to New York, and the
consequence Is that we have to shoulder the

A man turaed up tiers about- two years
ago, who was christened at once, The Count
of Monte Chrlsto. He was a splendid look

with the fluency of a native. He had
money, plenty; he paid his bills like
Prince, and It was whispered that he was a
Prince, but whether he was a Russian or a
Pole, a Hungarian or an Anstrlan, an Ital
ian or a German, no fellow could find out,
He could box like Sullivan, and ftnee Ilka

and If people sought him they found him a
capital fellow, and a royal entertainer,
which made him a desirable person to
know. The waiters at all the cafes and
hotels adored him, for tils largess was most
generous, and It was his custom to give
littlo dinners to a dozon or so at the Hoff
man, Pshnonleo's and the Brunswick, and
from the lavish manner In which they were
got up, It was pretty evident that there
must be a bonanza somewhere or the bank
would break. But money never seemed
scarce, and his diamonds were the admira
tion of all his friends. TThere tie came

In the caso absolutely, nothing to hang a
doubt on, but last week he disappeared as
a comet, and no man knows where he lias
gone; but to his credit, be it recorded, he
leaves no creditors behind him. I dan'
know exactly that It will do to put this aud
that together; but just about two years ago,
a royal princess of Russia, lost jewels wliich
were valued at two millions of roubles,
The lady had been reckless, and on a cer

mond bracelets and necklace, exchanged
them for chips, and gambled off a fortune
before breakfast. But while In thn Era
peror's palace at St. Petersburg, her jewels
disappeared, and a valet disappeared at the
same time. Some Russian detectives arrived
last week, reaching New York-on tho very
day that our Count of Monte Chrlsto dis

Washington-, D. C, Jan. 1, '87.
Mr. Editor: Although It was generally
known that Senator Logan had for several
days been somewhat Indisposed and hi con
sequence unable lo attend to hU otliclal
duties, It was not thought that his- illness
was of a serious nature, and It was expect
ed that he would soon be out agaiu. Such
being the case, the people wera little pre
pared for tha announcement which ap
peared In the Sunday morning papers, to
tho effect that the Senator was "lu a very
crltlcat condition," followvid as It was by
the notice of his death which appeared In
alto papers of the following day. Tha an
nouncement was a complete surprise, and
was received with universal sorrow, and
probably no ono aside from, the personal
relatives of Mr. Logan, was more sincere
In his expressions of regret than whs Pres
ident Cleveland. Since the commence
ment of the present administration Mr.
Logan had been a frequent caller at the
Whit House, and a warm personal friend
ship had grown up between Mr. Cleveland
and himself. Although differing from him
In political opinion, the President admired
him for the bold and fearless manner lu
which he expressed his views, ard the hon
est candor with which he treated questions
under discussion. Before his recent illness
Mr. Logan was frequently closeted with the
President for hours at a time, and it is said
that he frequently discussed with him ques
tions of great importance before deciding
upon his course of action. Th rotunda of
tlio Capitol, during the time that the re
mains were lying In state, was transformed
for the time belnc; Into a vast tomb for the
nation's honored dead. Thi walls were
heavily draped in mourning emblems. The
biar on which rested the remains of Presi
dent Lincoln, Chief Justice Chase, Presi
dent Garfield and Thaddeus Stevens was
used for tha occasion. At tlio conclusion
of the funeral services, which were held In
the Senate Chamber, the remains were fol
lowed to their temporary resting place In
Rock Creak Cemetery, where a guard of
honor will be maintained until arrange
ments have bean perfected for final inter
ment In the South Side Park In Chicago,
The President's condition continues to
improve, and although he has remained
quietly in his apartments most of the time
during the past week and has received few
callers, it has been solely out of respect to
the wishes of his physicians and friends.
He has been considerably amused at the
sensational accounts of his condltloB.whlch
havo appeared in the papers of late, which
have compared the symptoms of his attack
with the3o which proved fatal to General
Logan. He was also surprised to learn
through certain papers that he does riot
take exercise enough. The fact Is betakes
much more exercise than is generally sup
posed. H.
Onr State Capital CorrespoEtence.
Special to the Cahuox Advocate.
Januaky Gth, 18S0.
Everything has been exceedingly quiet
during this week. The convening of the
State Legislature, while it brought to town
many familiar faces as well as a large num
ber of Assemblymen who will pass their
first winter at the State Capital and partlci
pate in making the laws that are to goyern
tlie Commonwealth, had no other effect
than to cause a flutter of excitement
throughout the State buildings. The Re
publican House caucus hold Monday even
lng In the Supreme court room, disposed
of matters on hand In a hurried manner.
Ex-Sheriff Leeds, of Philadelphia, was the
principal actor. He proposed Speaker
Graham as chairman, which proposition
was unanimously ratified. A number of
resalutions were offered and passed with
out objection. Henry K. Boyer, of Phtla-
delphla, received the unanimous nomination
for Speaker, Gcorgo Pearson, was nomi
nated for Chief Clerk; Loach, of Schuylkill
county, was to have received the nomina
tion but owing to some hitch his name was
not mentioned. Upon the adjournment of
the Republian caucus the State Committee
went into session and almost Immediately
several hundred names weie handed In for
consideration. This commlttte referred
the list of applicants to a sub-committee of
seven who were kpt struggling with an
array of hungry place hunters up to a late
hour Monday night.
Tho stata committee of the Senate was
engaged In a lively tiusel Monday with an
unusually largs batcli of aspirants for
positions In that body. The Republican
members from Schuylkill are about as
Indignant as they can possibly be without
boiling over completely. Aud all on account
af Losch having been promised tho Chief
Clerkship by Quay, Magee and Rutan,
There Is no question bnt what the Schuyl
kill statesman was promised the position,
but Pearson's popularity prevented the ful
lilment of the saute, Pearson who was
connected with the Orphan School scandal
has been showing a letter during the week
purporting to ceme from Attorney General
Cassldy which in a measure relieves him
of the stigma attached to his name In con
uectlon with that Institutions.
Both branches of the Legislature met at
noon, Tuesday, Lieut. Gov. Black pre
sided In the Senate, where the recent elec
tion returns were read and approved by
C liluf I'lerk T. II. Cochran, who Is now
serving his seventh term, and the newly
elected Senators wera sworn in. Georgo
Handy Smith of Philadelphia, was elected
president pro tern. In taking the chair he
made a neat address dwelling paitlcularly
upon the revival of tho industres of the
State. In conclusion he said that tho busi
ness session of tho House would lncludo
important laglslatlon relating to shippers
and producers, to the carrying corporations
and tho prohibitory liquor amendment. A
concurent resolution w."s adopted directing
.ho ln.mgural caremcalcs of tho induction
of Governor Beaver into office to be held
on thn 18th instant, en tho South portico
of the Capitol, should tho weather permit.
Tho president pro lem was authorized tc
appoint spechl committees on arrange
ments. Rev. William Felsht cpened the Crst
session cf the House, Tue:day, with prayBr
after which tho reeding of tho election
returns -,nd tha enrollment of merabirs
elcct followed. In regards to the contested
jcat of tha Waves county members'
McCarty anil Hajer the Xormtr was re-1
corded. After the members were oath-bcund
to serve tho best Interosts of cur -Comcaon-wsilth,
Henry K. Boyer wis nominated
and elected Speaker cf that body by a yote
1Z2 to C3 for John E. Fauace. The newly

to the present, llquar laws which are.Jp.ade
quate to control the .traffic. He spoke of
othsr matteN demanding the immediate
attention of the Legislature and hoped they
would act promptly and with decision.
George Pearson, was elected Chief Clerk
over Elwell by a vote of 131 to 67. A com
mittee was appointed to notify the Governor
that the House was ready for business.
After reading the Governor's message'
and ordering that the sessions be from 11
m. to 1 p. ra. except on Monday's and
Friday's the body adjourt.ed.

the prohibition question.
In the Senate the Governor's Hit of 153
newly appointed notarits was received and
laid over. Several communications were
recclyed and laid over for future considera
tion. When tha nouse f Representatives
convened at 11 o'clock speaker Boyer was
in the chair. Mr. Robertson, of Allegheny,
moved to suspend the rules, In order to
consider, his resolution providing for the
consolidation of the committees on mines,
of coal and iron, of manufacturers and la
bor and industries. The motion was lost
by a yote of 107 to 04. Tho resolution f
the Senate to adjourn until tho loth Inst.,
was concurred adjourned.
Stanlay Quay's nomination was received
with hearty applause by the majority of
Republican leaders who have been stopping
here'durlng the week. That we can look
for some quick work by the present Sena
torial and Legislative bodies Is the opinion
of all owing to the salary of legislators
having been made $1,500, with no extra in
caso of tho calling of an extra session.

Our Letter from tlie Snsny South.
Southern Pinks, N. C, Jan. 1, '87.
"The Improvements at Southern Pines
ate very notable. A visiter there the past
week was very greatly impressed hy the air
of progress and the general Improvement."
We gather the above from the Raleigh.
N. C, Daily A'etos emu" Observer. No a
great many of our residents have ever
heard of Sonthern Pines and that stctlon
of the South, and a run to the Pines would
be of great Interest to them, especially dur
ing th winter months. The location of
this special place Is the highest known
polrt in what Is termed tlie Long Leaf
Pin Bait. This Is a narrow ridge running
In a South-westerly direction through the
States of North and South Carolina, Georgia
and Alabama. The pines are vary tall and
stately and as straight as an arrow; very
little underbrush; with ahorse and carriage
any one can driye for miles through an un
broken forest of pines. The soil is of a
light sand on account of which no water
eier remains on th top sell. The atmos
phere Is very dry and pure. So far a great
many Invalids suffering with every variety
of ttiroat and lung troubles, malaria and
general debility, have visited the place and
net a single person but what lias been
greatly benefited, if not entirely cured.
Not a single deatti has occurred at the
place among the many invalids. It seems
to have an almost miraculous power In
healing lung troubles. A gentleman from
Niagara Co., N. Y., went to the Pines five
years since, expecting to die In three
months, having lost the right lung entirely
and the left ene was badly diseased, but
to-day he Is enjoying very good health and
Is engaged in business at th Pines. He
says he will never risk leaving the place.for
In his opinion he could not live but a short
time at any other point. He Is an eminent
physician, Dr. G. U. Saddleson.
The hotel accommodations are now very
good.

For the first three or foar days the inva
lids who come t Southern Pines are not
quite sure about It. Then thay think they
feel a little better, A few days later they
step on tho scales and find that they have
gained flesh. They look In the mirror and
see that they havo lost their pallor; they
sleep a great deal and eat well tho less
