No matter how much tho radical Republican press may ridicule this fact it can not and Is not repudiated by tho Impartial political observer who sees drover Cleveland crowing stronger with tho people as his administration grows older. I'rest dent Cleveland represents tho Ideas nnd sentiments of .tho common people as the administration of a common people chows, consequently his rc-nomlnatlon and re election Is n foregone conclusion. Political combines may reduce tire majority but they cannot prevent his re-election. Ho Is the people's president and they know it. Tiik Knights of Labor in annual meet ing at Minneapolis, Minn., this week i aro to be commended for refusing to recognize a resolution asking mercy 'or the Chicago anarchists. Tho bomb throwers have been found guilty after a fair trial they have been conylctcd"and unless the course of jus tlce Is prevcrted they will hang as they justly deserve to. Anarchism and social ism Is a constant menace to American In stitutions and the welfare of onrpeoploand In consideration of this fact It would be wrong to grant "quarter" to men who de liberately -planned and executed a most atrocious crime. Let them hang, "and may God have mercy on their souls." Broadbrim's Hew ml Letter. Special to the Carbon Advocate, There be wlyes and wives, and husbands and husbands, and right hero we have a choice assortment of both, and from tho records of tho Courts this week It Is evi dent that the so-called weaker sex are not always tho sufferers, A case In point was tried on Wednesday last, where a wife had her husband arrest od for assault and battery and non-support, He was a poor, attenuated little anatomy, that a hundred pound weight In the oppos ite scale would havo sent flying tip like a shuttlecock, while his poor Injured wlfo was a good healthy beefy looking woman, who wore a forty-eight Inch belt-ribbon and woum tnakethe steel-yards look sick at two hundred and fifty. The brutal bus band was dressed In n linen dester that looked as though It might havo survived tne perils of the civil war. and a pair of pants that needed repairing In that portion wnicu no gentleman likes to havo out of repair. His feet were encased In a pair of rubbers, and his shirt, Innocent of collar, was without a button ut the neck but this Is no uncommon case.' The wretched wlfo had on a fine sealskin sacquc, a beaded silk dress, a blooming high hat and fcatlier,gold bracelets and diamond earrings. She , t r ... . .. t iuubou 1110 inquire 01 rosy neaitii, while her husband had his head tied up In a towel and looked as though he had been attend ing a flrst-class Irish wake. The case was called, and the lady took tho witness stand tho Judge asked her what was the matter? She said brutal treatment and non-support and she wanted her husband sent to the penitentiary. Tho Judge told her to Btate speclnclally the circumstances of the as sault. She said that she had been down to Coney Island with a friend, and being de tained till the cars stopped running, she was unable to get homo that night. Next day whon she did get home, her husband told her that she must not do It again; and She told him that she'd do it as often as she liked; then he said that ho'd leave tho house; and she told him that ho shouldn1 do lt,-,then he tried to get out and she hit him over tho head with a stove lifter In self defenso.then she doubled him up under the table ana called a policeman, and had him ua.u 10 jan. --mow auout tho non-support? now long since you received any money irom mrni"' "Last week, Judge, ana 1 naven't had a cent since." "How much did you receive, madam?" "Only ciguieen aouars, Jtuigo." "How much does your husband cam per weok?" "Twen ty dollars, Judge." "Then It appears you get the lion's share?" "Well, Judge, he wouiun t ten mo what he did with tho oth er two dollars." Said tho Judge, looking at 1110 pair: "lou don't look to be suffer ing madam, either for clothes or food Have you any moans outside of what your uusuanugtvesyoul" "Not much. Judge.' "Honunuch?'f "Five hundred and eighty uuuars mine oJieecKesircct Savings Bank ana one hundred and seventy-two In the Seaman's." "Who owns tho house you nyeinf" -i uo." "J low did you get It?' "Husband bought it forme." "And all the money yon have In the bank ho gave your- "ies. ".Now, madam, get out of this court as soon as you possibly can,or x may navo to send you to the penltentlarv for asrault If your husband will make the complaint. Prisoner, you aro discharged." The Injured wife looked daggers at her husband and tho judge, and flounced out of court as much as to say, there Is no jus lice ten in tnis country, Another case occurred this week which was attended with rather serious conse quences, and that It did not result In dread- roi loss 01 life, no thanks to the parties concerned, a foolish young married wo man got so Infatuated with the theater.that she took every opportunity to Indulge her wnira, and when her husband returned home from his work the other night he found that his wlfo had shouldered the baby, and had gone off to the theater. Angry at not finding any supper ready he started off In a rage.and found his wlfo and baby In the gallery among the toughs. He immediately ordered her home; but she had paid her twenty-flvo cents, and she was determined to see the thing out. One word brought on another, and at last he slaprfod Jier In the face. She had some of tho blood of our glorious forefathers In her, and she caught htm a paster under the ear. then they grappled, and just at the critical mo ment when everybody was rushing forward to see the fight, some fool cried lire I The remembrance of the terrible calamity of the Burning 01 the Brooklyn Theater eleven years ago, where nearly three hundred peo ple lost their lives, made the audience act like a herd of frightened deer, and they rusueu lor the door pell mell. Women fainted, some screamed, and many men acted like curs, thinking only of themselves. At last order was restored; the husband who raised the disturbance was dragged out py the police, and as he violently re sisiea, they clubbed him soundly, and threw him blending and blinded In the cell but his wife saw the play all the same, and stopped (in the curtain fell on tho fifth act, The husband was fined ten dollars thai means a week's work; his beating will lay him up for a couple of weeks at least So that on the whole the lady may conclude that sho has been Indulging In a very costly amutemtnt, I did not say a word about Urn races last week, because I felt I was treading on dan gerous ground In Indulging In any kind of prophesy. Everybody now Is ready to cry out, I told you so. But whllo tho beat Is a beat and a fair one, aud It Is conclusively proven that tho Volunteer can out-point tho Thistle, yet coming homo before the wind she pulled right up on her rival, and If the course had been n hundred miles In stead of twenty, tho Thistle would havo got In first. Tho lack of sympathy for their defeat, and tho general jubilation, are duo to several causes. Firstly to tho air of ex clustyeness which kept everybody at arm's length, aud to the mystery thrown around her build and tho declared Impossibility of her defeat. Mr. Bell, and those haying charge of his yacht, were not so offensively snobbish as Sir Richard Sutton of the Genesta, but there was sufficient of It to causo thoso who would have been othcrwlso pleased at her victory, to ho gladdened by her defeat, ll'lietlier real or pretended, Mr. Bell seems In no wise cast down at tho success of his Hyal. It is not probable that he will ever try It again. When tho cup goes back to England, If It ever does, tho gentleman's namo that carries It won't bo Bell. Dr. Parker of London pronounced his eulogy 011 Henry Ward Hccchcr at tho Academy of JusIc In Brooklyn 011 Tues day. On the Sunday previous ho preached at Plymouth Church, his audlcnco packing every portion of It as It used to bo filled In the oldon time under tho great Plymouth Pastor. It would ho unfair to crltlclso any man placed In as trying a position as Dr, Parker was. Ho evidently felt the situa tion keenly, and made a herculean effort to please; but his methods wcro not those of Plymouth Church. Confidence in himself ho had; sovera as was tho ordeal through which ho was passing, It was evident to every man, woman and child that the thought of failure never entered Into his head. Our city Is just now full of English men and Scotchmen, who have corns here to seo the races, and they seemed almost as anxious for the success of their country man in tho pulpit as they wcro for the Thistle upon the sea. Hundieds of them went over to Brooklyn on Sunday, ouly to be turned away, there not being an Inch of available standing mom long before the service commenced. Tho membership of Plymouth Church is something over 3,000, and as the church will only hold about 1, 500, you seo that there Is not much room for outsiders when all tho family Is at home. But, as I said, tho church was packed, and I can only say, to put It in a mild form, that the enthusiasm was not of that violent form to threaten anybody'sjieallh. His lecture on Tuesday was an eloquent and scholarly review of tho life and ser vices of his dead friend. lie was address Ingan audience in entire sympathy wltli every telling point ho made, and the result was Inoro satisfactory than his effort on Sunday. If the Aeadenty had been twice as large It could easily have been tilled : in fact, all the tickets were sold several days In advanco of tho lecture which, although a great financial success, was away below many efforts that Mr. Becchcr in his life made for local and State charities. If mistake not, his lecture for tho building of tho Soldiers' Home at Bath, In this State, realized for that Institution, $13,000. It is sate to say that Dr. Parkcrln due tlmo will return to his chargo In London. Under tho charge of Major Pond, Mr, Beccher's favorito agent, hu will mako lecture tour tluough the United Statcs.and a good solid bag full of American eagles will undoubtedly bo a pleasant reminder to him of his visit to tho westorn wilds to de liver a grateful tribute to Plymouth's dead pastor. The latest divorco suit has set all tho sporting world on a broad guffaw. No man Is better known on our race-courses than old Bill Daily. He Is sovcnty.fl'o he Is a day; and when I tell you that ho was n crony of dcorgo Splcer and niram Woodruff, you may guess he Is no chicken. Some of tho boys swear ho is oyer eighty, and an old tralnor, Tom Long, says he was sired before the Ameilcan Revolution. Bo that as It may, he hobbles about with 1 stick. Ho has the spring halt, and Isspav Ined, his skin Is like tan bark, and ho Is not nretty to look upon ; hut ho has cap tured a blooming widow all tho same, and has.becn playing Romeo to her Juliet. It's awful tunny, but Mrs. Dally don't think so, so sho sues for a divorce and 200.000 Undo 11111 swears he hasn't a cent, but there's half a million in an old stocking somewhere and tho lawyers are going to tind it. The Anarchists were out In full force on Sunday, and had to be clubbed Into a de cent submission to tho law. Georgo Fran els Train gayous chapter second of his revelation. One dose was enough.

OUR PHILADELPHIA LETTER, Pini.ADKLrniA, Pa., Oct. 12, '87. Anti-Poverty for abolition of poverty seems to bo In great demand In some sec tions of the country; New York cltv In particular, If newspaper accounts arc cor rect, appears to be nigh unto Inundated with Anti-Poverty literature, organization and movements. Antl-povorty sounds well and If these soelotles should prove the anti dote for poverty, now and for all tlmo to come, God speed them in their great work- Philadelphia as yot Is free from this aglta tlon, discussion and mode of making every- uouy rich, its soil evidently is Indlgnoui 10 such movements. Tho causo for this may be that Philadelphia has no poor uco- plo who havo wants and aro .destitute but this is not likely for there Is oyery evldcnco to the contrary. Or It may lack In George andMcGlynn philosophy and as a conse quence behlud New York. But speed the day when poverty will and shall he no more then, oh then, for tho millennium, Prof. James Custls Booth, mclterand refiner of the U. S. Mint, has tendered his resignation. Up to tho time of Ids leave he had been In tho service for oyer forty years, at a salary of $3,000 per annum, ne was longer connected with tho mint than any other employe. At $3,000 a year, for loriy years, ho drew from tho government over I20,T)00 a snug sum of moneyjmany men would certainly havo been gratified to serve their country faithfully and well for a much less tlmo. Notwithstanding this long service and sum total of $120,000, some newspapers suggest that this i-ooit man should bo retired on a pension. What flunkeyisml If tomoofthe employes who aro receiving $2.00 and $3.00 per day should suouiii remain in service for forty years and tllPH rfffA a nn,t..t ..t 1 gestlon of a pension would be forthcoming. It makes all the dlfferance In the world If you are rated either In the upper or lower class of mankind. As a rule no classes are recognized but society as constituted to-day and that adulation pertaining to It lias veri ly made such classes, and nowhere Is It so manifest as In largo cities. Whllo It Is true that Booth has well and honorably served tho government for a long tlmo, and for this ho deserves that credit duo to any meritorious work, yet It Is no reason why ho or any other man, for that, should bo rated as a pauper. Besides his Incomons inciter and refiner ho mado some lucky In vestments some years ago In land at Hav- crford, He purchased 160 acres at $150 per aero. Slnco his ownership tho valuo of this land has increased tremendously. Ho has been selling It at $1200, $1800 and $2,000 por acre. Ho has realized out of It up to this time $150,000 and still retains about one half of It. Yet with all these possessions and realizations somo people think tho government ought to peuslon hlni. Ihere seems to bo a spirit all through tho land of pension, pension, pension. What a tempting thing tho national surplus Is. Roduco It. Take away tho temptation of making national paupers out of every Tom, Dick and Harry. A successor to Dr. Booth Is to bo appointed by tho President. The duties of the position, are of a chemi cal nature and are othcrwlso very responsi ble. The definite fineness of all tho U. S. coin depends upon his supervision. At times, under his Immediate control nnd charge, nro millions of gold acd silver bul lion. Tho position Is much sought aftet there ara numerous contestants for tho President's favor. The prize means $3000 per year or $250 per month. A plum worth having. The man who Is believed to havo tho lnsido track and most likely to be se lected is Dr. Alexander Mucklc, a brother of Col. Mirk Mucklc, noted for his prom inence In the work of secret societies. Dr. Muckle Is .1 graduate of tho Philadelphia; Is an A. M., also graduated from Pennsyl vania University as an M. D. Ho contin ued his studies later 011 In Europe, in tho Universities of Goetllngeu and Hetdleberg, under two of tho most celebrated chemists and scientists of the doy;was Professor of Natural Sclenco In Washington and Jeffer son College of this Stato. Ills specialties aro chemistry and metallurgy essential requirements for tho place. Tho doctor, besides possessing these necessary qualifi cations Is a suave, pleasant and intelligent gentleman. A man of much research and learning, peculiarly adapted by profession aud practice for tho duties of melter and refiner. Cleveland could go further and not find a morn competent or nioro worthy successor to Booth. The Philadelphia JVcss Is never anything If not sensational or extravagant. It ap peals that some sis months ago a Biibord inate in the Philadelphia Postofilce went to the Post printer and requested him to print llfty cards pertaining to outside affairs. Tho Press having got "wind" of it through a fellow named Fryslngcr, straliihtwav eot Into hjsterlcs, emblazoned tho frcnt pago with wild and lurid headlines charging Postmaster Hanity with being privy to this violation of the rules. The thing being such a funny thing. Hie other newspapers have since been using It as a humorous sub ject for their editotlal columns. The city a iu uu iiiiiiL'u reu -vim w cts." as a campaign issue. But what makes It mainly a roorback is that the Press haying becorao such a reckless paper in the way of asser tions that no credence or reliability is placed on anything that It may say. It seems that the high protectionist shrlekcr has a par ticular animus ngalnst our Postmaster. From day to day It gets furious at anything mat it supposes cmenalcs from 0th and Chestnut. Long editorials In the way of admonitions, lectures and charges to and against Hanity appear, aud yet this young man coutlnues to pursue the even tenor of his way entirely oblivious ot tho shriekings of tho Press. And what Is best of all Is that the Postmaster pursues his even course wun me approbation of tho citizens of Philadelphia. With all these outside charecs and accusations, this paper even finds no cause as to mismanagement of the great postal department of Philadelphia, and hence It Is frantic. The long and short of it Is that the PostofDco being conducted in an admirable manner -is an eyesore to tho croakers and In order to divert public at tention trom this fact Irrelevant nnd out side issues misrepresentations are Infected. But It bodes 110 good to tho Albany Impor tations. ino amusement season has opened In full blast. Tho great attraction for tho week Is Richard Mamfleld at tho Chestnut St. Theater, In I)t. Jekyll ami Mr. Hvde, Ho drew large, crowds; It Is highly Interest ingthe amusement afforded amply repays one for the trouble and expense. From Washington : News Notes. Special to the Advocate. juii. coitoh: io chronicle the nows of tho past week at tho National Capital, would bo but to review the Incidents attend ing tho most enthusiastic ovation ever tend ered to an individual outside of public life, by the grateful residents and property own ers of a city. The unpaved unshaded streets, delapldated walks and buildings, and yast expauso of vacant grounds, sur face sewage and the generally uninviting appearance of the city and Its surroundings duringthe dark days of tho rebellion, and which continued until the advent of Mr. Shepherd as Governor of tho District pf Columbia in 1871, will bo well remembered by all who may have ylslted tho National Capital during that period, and the name of "Boss" Shephered Is almost as familiar as that of the city which owes to him more than to any other man the rlnht to the. justly claimed distinction, of being tho finest city in America. The world's bene factors have always been the worlds martvrs and Governor Shepherd has been no excep tion to the rule. Probably no man wasocr moro roughly and universally abused than was Mr. Shepherd prior to the time of his departure for Mexico a fow years since. Unllkemost of his predecessors however Mr. Shepherd has lived long enough to seo thefiults of his labors. As the work of city improvements has been advanced from year to year the people have awakened to a real ization of tho fact that all that has been accomplished has been duo to the foresight and determination of Mr. Shepherd and to day he may be said to be the most popular man In Washington. When It became known that he contemplated visiting the city, a meeting of the citlzous was called, and a fund often thousand dollas subscribed ,to defray tho repeuse of tho demonstration In honor of his return. Never in tho history of the city havo the common people crowded the streets to such an extent as they did upon Thursday evening. From tho Capitol to the Treasury Department the great sea of humanity surged ceaselessly for hours while tho entire city was ablazo with fire works. A novel featuro of tho demonstra tion consisted In the parade of the wheel men which formed the advance guard of the procession. More than six hundred bicycles and tricycles were in line, each rider carrying four Chinese lanterhs of various Colors and "brilllancr. which com. blncd to farm a spectacle truly oriental In its splendor, During tho President's and Mrs Clave. lands absence on their tour now In progress through the West and South, tho iriilto House It undergoing Its annual renovation to placo It In condition for tho cavities of tho coming wlrtcr.
