It seems to us to presage the rapid dc
cllne and early disappearance of all such
efforts through sheer inability to surpass
this of our coi respondent's. In Imagina
tion It Is homely, unpretentious, and unre
strained. -In syntax it Is faultless, and con
tains just as much of the priceless human
faculty known as common sense as any yet
published. It can't be beat. -Sun, N. Y.
President Cleveland this week
again voted several private pension bills,
but he acted honestly and squarely In doing
so, for according to the evidence submitted
it Was clearly proven that In each case the
man or men died or are now suffering from
Inabilities contracted by Indiscretions after
the war. For instance, one of the bills ve
toed grauted a penslcn to a soldier who had
his arm blown off at a Fourth of July cele
bration, another had served the last two
years of the war In the rebel army. Had
the President recognized these claims he
would have beon false to a public trust,
Greyer Cleveland has vetoed no pension
bill where the ovldenco was sufficient to
sustain the claim. This fact Is more clear
ly proven when it is recalled that during
his term, of office he has signed three to
four times as many pension bills as any of
his predocossors.
Theiie does kot as yet atpear on
the surface at least anything that would
Indicate that the controversy that has been
Eolig en imongst the Democrats of the
newly apportioned Congressional District
composed of the counties of Northampton,
Carbon, Monroe and Pike, nears a solution.
The controversy is as to the representation
that each county is to have in the conven
tion which shall decide upon the county In
the new-district which is to have the first
Congressional nomination, and the order
of the sncceedlng nominations. The North
ampton men claim -representation in such
convention or conference in proportion to
the county's Democratic vote, while the
other counties claim that each county
should be equal therein. Tlds Is a compli
cation which certainly contains an element
of danger to the regular Democratic Con
gressional succession in the District.
There is a chance of our having a Republl
can Congressman If this fight of prelimi
nary representation is carried beyond what
has been aptly termed the safety line

ON THE KESCFirr OF THE IEISH 0.UES
TION.-
Congressman John F. Flnerty, of Chica
go, says in regard to the recent letterof the
Pope explaining tho rescript of the Irish
question: "I can only say what I said
when the rescript was first discussed," was
his reply. "It is an interference in Irish
politics. If Archbishop Walsh had taken
the ground he should hayo taken, this sec
ond letter would neyer have been sent. If
the Irish bishops or the nineteenth century
had the backbone of tho English bishops
ot the thirteenth century, thoy could easily
hayo brought Leo XIII. to terms. As It Is
the fight falls on the people The Issue is
made at last. For the last 700 years the
Irish people haye been suffering tho tor
tures of the damned because of Papal inter
ference In Irish affairs. Next to England,
Itonie has been Ireland's greatest political
.enemy, and It Is on questions of politics
now, alone, and not on matters of faith
that I am speaking. To havo tho homes
of Ireland leveled to tho ground, tho fath
ers and tho brothers and tho sons butchered.
the wives, sisters, and daughters outraged.
the Infants piked or bayonetted, and all
promiscuously starved, Is a combination of
horrors before wnlch the doyll himself
must stand appalled. If that Is legitimate
government and Pope Leo XIII. main
tains that it is then legitimate govern
ment springs from tho devil and not from
God. and It should be opposed, whether the
Premier of England or the Popo of Home
Is Us mouthpiece, The Pope of Homo has
no power to damn mo or any other Catho
lic. His latest utterance is an outrage on
Irish Catholic manhood and womanhood,
The Pope of Itome, tho head of tho Catho
lic Church, is in all matters of religion
supreme; but tho Pope of Itome, an Italian
prince, with an Italian policy to carry out,
at 110 matter what expense to tho other
Catholic peoples, is a fair subject for
Irish criticism, and It is from this stand
point I criticise him. I am a Catholic'
am a believer in the Catholic Church but
I am Irishman and not an Italian, and
am not to be sacrificed for the needs of
Italian diplomacy."

No democrat, high or low, in position or
out of it, is dreaming of free trade. He
knows if he has the least idea of the sub
ject, that as long as the government needs
reyenue, rcyeuue will be gathered from
taxes on imports. Tho only issue lu the
present canvass is between the democratic
idea of a tariff for revenue and protection
and tho republican idea of tariff for robbery
and trust, cliolco is to be made between
tariff taxes that will produce the reyenue
needed by the government In the way less
burdensome to consumers of imported
articles, who aro tho taxpayers on the one
hand, and tariff taxes levied to establish a
privileged class by compelling consumers
to buy from protected shops, regardless of
the revenue-rising effect of these taxes, on
the other. J)enrer News. v

And what a consistent, contemptible plea

of arms had given the lie to its cowardly

from tho same party which, In 1803, pio
nounced the constitutional amendment and
the reconstruction measures yold and of no
effect; the same party which, after those

acknowledged by the world, turned up
again w.lth the peevish old whine: "Let

BROADBRIM'S J. Y. LETTER
About two years ago one bright af tor-
noon the City of Churches was startled by
tho Intelligence that Tom Ilerrick lay mur
dered in his house. lie had been seen ear
ly In the day at his hotel on tho Coney
Island road, but from tho moment he left
it all trace of his whereabouts was lost till
ho was found dead at the head of the cellar
stairs in the hall. Speculation was wild,
detectives scoured tho town, all clues
seemed lost; at last a little girl was found
who said she had scon.a young man climb
ing over tho back fence about three In the
afternoon. The description exactly tallied
with a stepson of tho murdered man, who
was known to bo a reckless worthless fel
low. He was arrested and Anally confessed
to the assassination, and after relating the
clrcumsatnccs was acquitted on tho plea of
self-defence. Mrs. Ilerrick, tho boy's
mother, in company with her first husband
one Armstrong, kept a house of question
able resort between Brooklyn and Coney
Island. It was that kind of a hotel where
men rarely stop when they ride out with
their own wlycsjbut the houso was popular
with a certain class, and Armstrong and
his wlfo made money. Thoy had one boy,
who grow up-as bad as could be, and no
wonder, for nil the associations from the
hour of his birth were of tho vilest charac-
ter.
One morning Armstrong was found dead
in his barroom, and shoitly after tho gay
widow married ono Ilerrick, her husband's
barkeeper, the man who two years after
was murdered by her son. Ilcrtick was a
large, strong man, and when In liquor he
had a temper of a wildcat. As soon as he
was married ho tookli violent antipathy to
Ills stepson, their quarrels were frequent
and bitter, and at last Ilerrick drove tho
boy away from his mother's house. The
boy was a natural born thief, and he
had frequently stolen his mother's dresses
and jewelry, and pawned them to raise
money to gamble with, lllien ITcrrlck
drove him out ho procured dupllcato keys
of the house, and when Ilerrick was absent
at his hotel In Coney Island tho boy would
let himself In, and pass most of tho day
eating and sleeping, and the nights he
tlm low ilpnswhpre
passed In the streets or
ho found congenial companions. Ono after
noon ho was surprised by Derrick and
sought refuge In the cellar; Ilerrick at
tempted to pursue him, and the boy shot
him and killed him. Ills mother furnished
him with money for his defence, the ablest
lawyers were engaged, and the result was
his acquittal. While the trial was going
on a beautiful young girl was seen among
the spectators, and when ho was acquitted
she mado his acquaintance, and against tho
rcmonstranco of all of her friends she
married him. Tho honeymoon was brief.
A few woeks showed the poor girl her fatal
mistake. While she was helplessly sick
the young brute-cruelly beat her, and then
fled to Australia to avoid criminal prosecu
tion. Deprived of a son and a husband the
widow Derrick wasted no time In unavail
ing grief, and finally discovered a special
penchant for the police certain that it Is
several policemen succumbed to her charms
but her tender affairs of tho heart culmin
ated at the last Emerald Ball. While the
ball was at its height it suddenly occurred
to the widow Derrick that It would be
the proper thing to do to set up Heidsick
and ham sandwiches for tho boys, and
she forthwith in all the glory of an Emer
ald Ball dress sailed Into a neighboring sa
loon. When the police got tho tip that the
widow Derrick was setting up wine for
tho cops, there was hardly a policeman for
twenty blocks who could be found on his
post. Wlillo the festivities
were at their
height a young gentleman In a swallow
tailed coat and an Emerald neck tie re
marked that a saloon like that was no
place for ladles at, which Paddy Mahon
fetched him a wipe over the sconce with a
champaign bottle, which effectually slopped
all further remonstrance from tho gentle
man with the Emerald tie, but Mike Ileu-
nesy, bis friend, seized a large sized water
pitcher and sent Mr. Mahon to grass, and
two friends seized the widow and ran her
out of the saloon. The police got out as
soon as possible. No one could be found
who ever saw or heard of a fight, but the
Police Commissioner got hold of It, and
tho consequence was tiiat some were de
graded, some discharged, and two of the
oldest detective on the force wore Ignoinl
nlously kicked out, all on account of the
widow Ilerrick, Sho was brought to my
mind this week by seeing a notico of her
third mattimonal venture. She has just
secured a third husband, and I could not
help asking myself what manner of man
was he who had succeeded In capturing
this treasure. It seems wonderful that
after her experience a man could be found
bold enough to mark himself down number
three. Mis. Derrick's youug hopeful, who
killed his stepfather, is now serving a term
foi burglary in an Australian States prison.
It is expected that he will soon be back in
Brooklyn. The young wife whom he beat
to deatli now sleeps quietly In Greenwood,
and he will bo free to marry again. The
last chapter of this romance is yet to bo
written, and I shall wait with anxiety the
return of young Armstrong from his Aus
t nil Ian prison, and tho closing chapters of
husband No. 3 and the now mado bride,
un sunqay wuuo uie cuurcn uens were
ringing, about two hundred toughs took
possession of 0110 of the loveliest islands on
tiro East River, pitched their ring, and
forthwith two human brutes began to
pummel each other with bare fists, and
kept on for nearly an hour till both of
them were hammered out of all human
semblance, and a final blow left one dying
on the sod. On every sldo of Fcrricn's
Island where the battle took place was an
army of policemen paid by the two cities
of Now York and Brooklyn, at a cost of
several millions annually; yet, though
hundreds went to see the fight, the police
department with its scores of detectlyeswas
as blind as abat and deaf as an adder, and
though the river was covered with boats
filled with witnesses of the fight, nojarrests
were made. Now, mark the difference!
The day after our glorious Fourth, a young
woman who was employed as a servant In
ono of tho most respectable families in
Brooklyn, was arrested on a requisition
from Connecticut as an escaped prisoner.
bue bad been tried and condemned for
criminal intimacy, an offence which is no
offence in thirty four States of the Amerl
can Union; in Connecticut It ranks with
forgery or larceny though it Is not often
that this statute Is Invoked. Mrs. Bingham
claims that she was married to a drunken
sot twice her age, whom she supported for
thirteen years; at last, overcome by his
drunkenness and brutality she left him, aud
set herself at work to support her children.
In an oyll hour for herself, poor woman,
she listened to tho volco of a friend who
had frequently assisted her in the hour of
her misfortune. A woman at whoso house'
sho Btopped tried to blackmail her, and
falling In tbat,scl tho offlcicrs on her track,
which resulted In tho Incatceratlon of her
friend In States prison, and her own im
prisonment in the couuty jail for several
months with a fine of seventy dollars to
mollify tho good citizens of the common
wealth of Connecticut for tho outrage that
had bien committed in their midst. What
became Of the woman's children 'vhon tho
State deprived them of their mother? I
do not know. But finding her prison door
open one day she walked out, and camo to
Brooklyn, where, entering service, slid at
onco by her ladyliko behavior gained the
confidence of her employers, and set her
self at work for her children. Every cent
she earned was laid out for them, and she
worked lato and early to mend and mako
for them, but tho sleuth hounds tracked
her to Brooklyn, and now they are going
to carry her back to prison. But sho Is not
without friends, and thoy are going to use
eyery effort to get her pardoned. Tho
gentleman and his wife for whom sho
worked In Brooklyn declaro If sho is re
leased that they aro willing to lcavo their
beautiful houso in tho city In her charge
whilo they aro absent for tho summer. If
over there was n caso whero executive
clemency can bo wisely exercised this is
one. Let the Governor say In the language
of tho man of sorrows "Nclthur do I con
demn thee, go and sin no more."
Another of tho features of clyll service ro-
form as she Is wrlto was exemplified In the
Fire department. One portion of tho cx-
amlnation is literary and another Is purely
physical. Tho caso in hand was exactly
tho reverso from one that took place a few I
weeks ago; In that case the man was sound
as a roach on tho physical examination. I
but at tho school ho attended in his boy-
hodd they did not leacli rccdln or rlghlln,
80 ue ?ot a frIcd to tt"CI"l ' Pl of
tho examination for him. Tho literary
certificate was Issued to one Thomas
Flynn, who appeared before tho- Commis
sioners as Michael Murphy, but when Mr.
Murpny camo lor ins commission he was
asked to sign his name on tho margin
this was too much of a Job for JWurphy, so
tho fraud was discovered and ho stepped
down and out. Tho caso this week was
different. McCarty was all right on three
It's, and ho marched out of Court with tho
Commissioner's approval. IIo now started
for the physical examiner's office, and
knowing that ho was two Inches too short,
he got his friend IDrlscoll to go Under tho
tape. Jirlcoll was live feet six and a
quarter. It all went right till McCarty
went to tho cngtno houso with his appoint
ment, when tho foreman saw through the
fraud at once, and McCarty went to grass.
Strango as it may seem there is no punish
ment for a fraud like this; tho perpetrators
when detected, laugh at tho matter as a
good joko and walk off without a scratch.
The gossips aro still busy speculating
about the marriage of Miss Gwlnn, and
everybody Is wondering what tho Vandcr-
bilts are going to do about It. Her family
have got her for the present, and the
usband for an hour has not. He says
that it will be all right in tho sweet by and
bye, but of that at present there seems to
bo a reasonable doubt. She is in Rhode
Island, and he is living in a bachelor flat
up-town. Not a nice way to spend tho
honeymoon you say, especially when tho
bride Is beautiful and rich. But then
everything good has to be paid for in tills
world, and perhaps tho lucky Bohemian
who won this pearl of great price may
find his reward hereafter.
