that Miss Nina Van Zandt, who made her

Anarchistic Spies by proxy is rapidly fall
Ing In health. This is a sad but hardly un
expected sequel to an unnatural romance
in real life. It is now stated that Spies'
attorneys coaxed the highly remanttc girl
into tho proxy marriage as a means
raising sympathy for the condemned an
srchlst. If this s so the lawyers should I
owe way be made to suffer for the obllquy
-wiuoli tne poor girl was made to endure.
Ouu esteetued contemporary tho een-

numerous readers can explain this peculiar
phenomenon we would be pleased to hear
from them. The Sun fs willing: to crow

THE LESSON OF IBB FLAGS.
No sort of mystery attaches to the action
of tho President with regard to the cap
tured rebel flags. Tho Idea of returning
them was suggested to him nt the moment
of his departure on a pleasure, tllp. Ho
pproved the frcntlmcnt Involved and, with
out considering tho legal aspects of the
case, ho expressed his approval. Later on,
hen the matter had taken shape and was
on thu verge of consummation, tho Presi
dent looked Into the law and concluded
that, however sensible and patriotic the
rogect might be, It was one that congress,
and not he, should pass upon. He, there
fore," Instructed tho Adjutant-General to
suspend operations. Nothing could be
simpler. It Is, like everything elso that
Mr. Cleveland has done since he became
President of tho United States, sensible,
tralghtforward, courageous and patriotic.
His Impulse was to do the magnanimous
and Graceful thing. His action has been
governed by tho law.
Hut what a valuable and timely lesson
tho country has derived from the episode.
What an exhibition of cheap demagogy and
silly rant has been provoked. Wo have
been enabled to ascertain tho extent and
quality of the fraternal lecllng that pre
vails as between the sections, and to weigh
to a vlcety tho significance of the froth and
f urv of Individuals. The flurry has elicited
great deal of important Information. We
have learned that Charles Sumner, the
great apostle of emancipation, first advo
cated the destruction of all symbols of strife
and conquest, and that he had for coadju
tors such patriots as Horace Greeley. This,
In the very heat and stress of the era of
reconstruction. We have learned that for
years past the northern suvlvors of tho war
have been exchanging with their southern
bre.tlicrn the relics of their forgotten hatred.
New York and Connecticut havo had re
stored to them certain ensigns and banners
taken by the confederates in fair fight.
Loulsana and Alabama havo recovered from
tho nyrth similar reminders of their Over
throw. And thus the brotherly work of
healing has gone on.
Sensible men will not overlook the moral
of this recent outbreak. They will see that
the cement of reconciliation has solidified
the masses and that tho foreign particles
are nothing hut Hie scum, mat mere
should bo any considerable number of men
willing to make capital out of the passions
a quarrel, adjusted now more than
twenty years ago, Is sad enough; but the
country will not be long In appraising tho
motives and worth of such men, and no
useful or desirable purpose Is likely to be
retarded by their efforts. This flurry will
nass. The troubled waters, will subside.
Amity between the sections will extecd and
crystallite. And the day Is near when the
shallow demagogues who sought to pro
mete their own poor ends by Invoking tho
wrath of a long burled acrimony will be
glad to hide their heads. iV'ew York Star.
Broadbrim's M ml Letter.
Special to the Cahiion Ahvocate.
For many months past you nilsht have
noticed in the leading papers whole col
umns of advertisements of "K-Wren."
'K-Wren, what Is K-irren?" people In
quired, and soon It was dlacovcrcd that It
was one of the thousand and one Infallible
remedies for coughs and colds. It was the
Invention of the talented young editor of
the irall Street AVa-s, Charles D. Keep.
For several years he used to make up the
prescription and give It to his friends, then
some one suggested that he give It to the
public; the Idea pleased, him, and at once
ho invested $00,000 in advertising. To-day
the brilliant young editor, the daring ITall
street operator. Is dead. His llfo reads like
a romance. A few years ago he came to
this city to seek his fortune, so poor that
he had not money to pay his lodging; ten
cents would have done It but be did not
havo ten cents, so he lay down to sleep
supperlcss that night In a coal box. Five
years from that time his narao was as woll
known on Wall street as that of Itusscl
Saga or Jay Gould. The penniless adven
turer blossomed out Into a daring specula
tor and became a power in tbo street. For
years he was tho financial editor of tbo
New York Times, and was one cf tho lucky
few that got tips when tips mean? As an
Instance of how this thing is done, there is
a young man on the street who furnlshct
the financial news for a great metropolitan
journal. The business of the day was over
and he was on his way up to the office to
write up the news of the day; on the corn
er of Wnll street and Broadway he met one
of the heaviest operators on the street and
they stepped IntoDclmonlco's to get a soci
able drink. The operator looked at him
a moment and said, " Now don't
ask me any questions, but if I were you I'd
buy some oil early to-morrow morning;
mum. Good day." Oil was selllnc at CO.
My friend hurried out, borrowed all the
money he could rake, which was not much
but on the strength of this hint he put up
his margin. Oil ran up to 180 when he
sold, and the profits of his venture was
over ten thousand dollars. Mr. Keep
knew everybody and was an exceedingly
popular man, as much so as a man of his
positive nature could possibly be; ho had
besides the reputation of being a thorough
ly good fellow, and he made friends of both
Bulls and Bears. A few years after he
came upon the street without a penny he
was generally supposed to be worth a mil
lion, but he took all of the chances of the
street and at his death M as said to be worth
half a million. Only thirty-eight, yet ut
terly and hooelessly stranded, wrcrked,
lost to his family and friends. What
brought It about yon ask? Wall street. Tho
candle was burning at both ends; no rest,
no surcease from toll, his very pleasures
and amusements framed with an eye to
business. Oh, the dreadful fever of that
Wall street life to n man whose neivcs are
like electric wlresl Charles D. Keep was
always a worker; he did the work of five
or six ordinary men,hlshead was planning,
plotting, figuring all the line, and every
day new schemes of fortune rose before
htm; he used to say that any fool could
make money, and bo only cared for it for
the jion-er It gave him. A short tlruo since
he looked as though he had many years of
useful life before him and certainly he had
as brilliant prosv-ects as anv man In Wall
street, but his bright career Is closed died
of excltemeut, died of overwork, died of
Wall street.
Our sister city Brooklyn Is startled by
the horror of a child starved to death In
in the Butler street Homo for Friendless
Orphans. The wretched child was Mamie
Holland, about ten years of age, and when
the Inquest was held on her emaciated lit
tle body she Was little moro thau a skele
ton. The Brooklyn Eagle published the
wekly bill of fare which reads like some
horrlblo story In Dickens. Bread and mo
lasses and water for breakfast, molasses
and water and bread for dinner, bread and
molasses and water for supper. No meat,
no vegetables, or only one potato a week.
Nx.t . . .. . .

i Bouiwani uoardi and smile to see yourown
chlidren fill themselves with all the good
things of earth, think of these two hundred
And fifty litllo prisoners, whoto only crlmo
was poverty, kept week In and week out
from one year's end to tho other, on this
horrible nauseating diet. How their little
ravenous stomachs must havo yearned for
a mouthful of meat, ord green vegetable,
or a bit of fruit. Tho little pilsonerwns
released at last, God In his mercy let her
dlo and tho doctors who examined the lit
llo stomach found nothing In it, the child
was literally starved to death; yet the
honso In which she perished Is a magnifi
cent structure bountifully endowed with a
fashionable Board of Directors who aro re
ceived on visiting days by the matron In
her beautiful parlors and If she were to be
taken as a sample of the living at the But
ler Home nothing better could be desired.
She Is supposed to live on the same food as
her wards, but tho finest of fowls and the
tendcrest of beef, the best of vegetables
and fruits load the matron's table, while
the wretched wards perish on brcad mo
lasses and water. The report has created rt
profound sensation in our sister city, mak
ing It evident that there Is yet abundant
work for tho Home Missionary In tho city
of churches.
Two fires have occurred In Brooklyn In
volving a loss of nearly two millions; one
was proved to bo the work of lncehdlarlcs
who are now In States prison, and the fire
of Havermcyer's sugar refinery Involving
tho loss of at least ono life and a million of
dollars Is also suspected to be the work of
Incendiaries.
At cypress Hill Cemetery a ceremony
took place the like of which was never wit
nesscd In any land before. It was, as the
principal actor declared, a new era In our
civilization. Mr. Louis Mosqucrc Is aged
clahty-flvo and has amassed a moderate
fortune; his wife and sister are dead, and
having no children he concluded that tho
best way to dispose of his fortune was to
rear a monument to himself. At consider
able cost he erected a fine granite column
In Evergreens.. His own virtues and those
of this wife and sister have not been over
looked, and he has also left to an admiring
posterity his views In rccard to the future
structure of society. He would would wipe
out all cities, no more love for him; at 85
he cannot understand why such nonsense
as love, with nil its follies, should be al
lowed to exist. Perhaps when wo get to
his el.uiy-flve we may think so too.
About four hundred people assembled at
the dedication and It Is unnecessary to say
that Mr. Mosquero did himself full justice.
A blank Is left, after rehearsing Mr. Mos-
qucro's virtues, for his death, and when
that Is tilled up tho whole thing will be
complete.
A novel suit is now before tho courts In
which ono Henry Elseman is complainant
and Henry Rees, President of tho Journey
man Brewers' Union, Is defendant. Mr.
Klscman gave offence to the Union and he
was expelled and his card permitting him
to work was taken away from him; for be
it known in free America a man must get
permission to work and pay for It, or with
out it he Is a leper and cannot earn his
dally bread. Mr. Elsemap went from
brewery to brewery to brewery looking for
work, but wherever he went the walking
delegate followed him and drove him out
till at last it looked as though tho man and
his family would starve to death. At last
driven to desperation Instead of shooting
down the walking delegate he appealed to
the law, and now ho sues the Brewers'
Union for $2-',000 damages. It is to b
hoped that the law of his country will af
ford Mr. Eiscman protection while he
labors for his wife and children, and that It
will teach his persecutors a lesson that it
will be well for them to remember.
couple of weeks ago I mentioned the
caso of James Burns, the grayedlgger at
Holy Cross Cemetery, whom Bishop Lough-
lln of Brooklyn refused to discharge, be
cause he would not join the Gravedlggers'
Protective Union of the K. of L. Poor
Burns held the fort; but he has had a hard
time of It sluco then. lie went to the
butcher's to get some pigs feet and a chuck
steak; but tho butcher turned him out of
the shop, and refused to sell him even
sausage. He stepped Into a saloon, and
thought he would take a morning nip of
sour mash; the barkeeper told him whis
key was a dollar a drink, so fled In affright
He went to the grocer's and ordered ahead
of cabbage, two bundles of wood, and some
loose pickles. The grocery man refused to
sell him anything for love or money, as his
patrons were all Knlqhts of Labor, and he
had been Informed that If he supplied Mr,
Burns the K. of L. would leave hhn; so he
requested Mr. Burns to carry his patrona
to tho Little Grocery around the corner.
But the Little Grocery around tho corner
was In the same tlx, and with a pocket
moderately well filled with lawful currency
of the United States, It looked as thougl
ho might starve to death. It suddenly oc
curred to him that ha hadn't been shaved
for a week, and he said to himself "Meb
be mo looks Is agin me, begorra I'll get
shaved an' hav me hair cut, av It cost me
fifteen clnts." So he hied htm to the near
est barber shop and seated hlmsolf com
fortably In the chair. The knight of the
razor has just given a flourish of his shears
and comb, preparatory to beginning on
Mr. Burns' fleece, when a man rushed Into
the shop and whispered something In the
barber's left ear, and In less time thau it
takes to tell the story, Mr. Burns was
bounced out on the sidewalk. Mr. Burns
still digs graves and receives his regular
dollar and seventy-dye cents a day there
for; he Is a property holder and a man of
substance but If he can't get a drink of
whiskey, or a shave, what is he to do?
"ou will say, buy a good "Wade ond
Butcher raior, and join the T. A. B.'s
So far, so good J bu behind all that, stand
tbo butcher, the baker, and the candlestick
maker. Perhaps the best thine after all
for Mr. Buns to do would bo to dig his oirn
grave and jump Into It, for It Is very evi
dent that there Is no room on this earth for
any man who villi not join the Knights of
Labor. Buoadiiiiiu.
