We know that he hu been a close student for many jears, for periods almost a recluse, but thr result of It Is rery cqnsplcuous. A few weeks ago the Elmlr Telegram contain, d his portrait and a hlfzhly complimentary allusion to his career, other newspapers hare made similar references to him. The National Police Gazette of New York City on Jauuary 12th contains as fine a portrait of him as wo erer saw, under the leading heading "Men and Women Who Kind Pictorial Fame In These Columns." The beading contains such names as flush J.

Power, who was the successor of Hubart O. Thompson, was the dispenser of millions to be laid out on the new acquo duct. At one time It seemed as If the political power of Tammany was shattered. John Kclley was dead. The County Democracy was rocosnlzed by the State Uolnmltteoaitheonly regular organisation, and many prominent politicians thought that Tammany should be denied all politi cal representation. How changed all till auptars with the opening of 1880. The The forcos of the County Democracy aio scattered and broken, many ot Us ablest supporters haye Roue over to Tammany, brutal show, the gallery fell, carrying down fifty oeople, maiming nlauv of them for life, and probably killing some; but no one noticed them, hardly a soul seemed to csre for tlio poor Ignorant brute who lay bleeding senseless on the floor 1 Ever body was cheer ing and rushing forward, eager to shako hands wltbjho brawny savage whoso tcrrl flee blow had done such terrible execution. The Mayor over his coffee and rolls the next morning got a sketch of the fight of the proceeding evening, and that night read a full and yery detailed report In the "Brooklyn Eagle." It Is putting It very mild to say that his honor was surprised to know what was going on In his baili wick, especially as all exhibitions of Mil class were granted In his name. All aut standing permits were Immediately with fleelssz the wrath to come, and It Is safe to drawn, and notice served on the pugs that say ih it In the next Democratic Steto Con vention, If the Connty Democracy gains an entrance at all It n III by the sufferance of their foes on whose necks they planted their heels three years ago. A new set of ffp will annear In most of the mibllc TheyVafi'onal Goieffe speaks of Mr. flap- ofliCfii an(i tue ,Ter-tongued O'Orady, hr as follows: "The striking likeness of the talented District Attornet or Carbon county, Ta., wl.l be seen above. lie was born April 23, 1843, and after graduatlmz frcimcollege enlisted In the army. lie was elected to the position he now so ably fills In 1868. District Attomoy Rapsber will conduct tbe prosecution for the Common wealth of Pennsylvania In. the cases against the conductors, engineers, flagmen and ethers now under an est fur criminal neg ligence in causing the great accident on the Lehigh Valley Railroad at Mud Run, Oct. 10th which was graphically Illustrated In a double page of the Police Gazette ai the time, and by which accident fifty -flye were Instantly killed and nine have since died." 1 HOTH1NQ UNFOltSMEX OCCUBS THE Grand Jury, next weak, will confirm abso lutely the report of the ylewers of the Lehigh bridge at this point: Thereafter It rests entirely with the county cummisstners whether or not a new bridge on a new loca tion will be erected or not. We have advo cated the new bridge on a new site, fur ther north, on general principles of convenience and Improvement. It is acknowledged that the proposed change Is a commendable one In every particular, but the matter does entirely rest there. The bridge erected on a site further north will give the Valley Railroad Corupan. much needed room for the erection of ad ditional tracks, &c., and tbe County Com missioners, naturally, want this corporation to bear a fair proportion of tbe Increased cost of a new bridge. A proposition, we understand, has been submitted by the Le high Valley Company to the Commissioners for consldeiatlon and Is probably now under advisement. Tbo Advocate wants the Interests of the county fully protected, still, any reasonably fair proposition should be accepted. Jt is quietly reported that Street grade has been lost In the mud, Bb'BU HENBT RlHKEBOr THE HERALD displays an Ignorance of county political affairs when he attributes the election of Franklin's esteemed son, Thos. Arner, to the Commissioners, Clerkship, through tbe wire pulling efforts of Welsspert politicians, at the same time he' casts an Imputation on the political Integrity of Jacob Hawk, b claiming that he was bullied into voting or the candidate of somebody else's choice. BrerRlnker, as a sage you have veritlhlj put your foot tin It; jou have not only failed In jour effort to be funm, but have also, mors clearly elucidated your position as flrsi class ass. Br'er RInker, once more go uj. bead I The Advocate wants to se with Le klghton during the ensuing j car, and a band In the progesslyness that Is bound to come.

BROADBRIM'S H. Y. LETTER. The bells have stopped rinsing 1 1888 lies silent and dead; and 1889, radiant win. life, springs Into the arena fully armed foi the fight, to run Its brief course and thru like the years that have proveded it, It w lit sink Into tbe silent past, lluw rapidly these years fly by I It reminds me of shoot lng down the rapids of Niagara. At first the course Is smooth and gentle, tlio bark glides silently on, swifter and swifter grons the current, the sborei sweep by, the ways begin to curl and foam then comes the mad whirl and the whlld rush' and tbe last fatal plunge, and all Is oyer. 1889 1 Why, It seems to me as I sit here that I can almost bear tbe echoes of tbe hlme that announced the triumphal entrj ot 1888, and 1888 Is past and gone-dead, laid away In the dusty tomb of the cen turies. All through the week the two great cities seem to have lived In tbe itrset. Never before have I seen such a rush and crowd. I often wonder It any body Is left In the bouses, so many are out doers. The hospitable custom of visiting and re ceiving has had a royal observance, and In deference to tbe advancing temperance sentiment, I noticed this ar an entire ab sence ot wine and liquors from tbe ma jority of bouses that received; tea, coffee, lemonade and other mildly stimulating drinks were only furnished, and the re sult was that our young men arrived home at 12 p. in., In tolerably good repair. Tbis being tbe day that our city govern ment changed hands, there was a lively time among the politicians, as lu tbe change Is Involved a stake amounting to nearly forty millions of dollars. Never was there a better Illustration ot tbe Illusive and fluctuating character of politics. Three years ago and Abram S. Hewitt took the oath of office amid tho beating of drums and the blarlcg of trumpets, and tbe hal lelujah of the assembled citizens He was a sort of combination candidal e. Thousands of Republicans abandoned their somlnte. Theodore Rooieyelt, In order to crush tbe Labor candidate Henry George, the capitalist of New York from tbslr property. When the smoke of that battle eleared away the political remains of Henry whose I'henononlnal raise had startled the Ueorge were discovered among tbe ruins, of the Labor Party, disjointed and dis raeaabered, has vainly struggled for recog nition since then. Mayor Hewitt tbounh defeated retires with honor, and 1 to be hoped that bis successor, wheu be comes to lay down tbe baton ot bis office, may leaye behind blm as a clear record. Around the City Hall from early morning was a ?at4 sea et fcuagry aad expectant fa. who aroused Cleyelandls Ire when he was Governor, by defeating all his nominations, and who opposed Cleveland's nomination for President four years ago and slumped the State for General Duller, has now been re-elected to his old post in the Senate by the efforts of Tammany. The prodigal hits returned, the fatted calf has been killed, and as white as wool, and from this time forth he becomes the mouthpiece of tbe trlumphantSachems lo 1 lot 1 lol t Tam many. The present holiday season, so joyous to thousands, has not. been unmarked by sor row and disaster. A joting husband kills Ills wife and then himself, tbe ostensible cause being prospective poverty. Then comes the revelation of a life so shocking, that tbe heart grows sick to think of It. The dead man leaves a broad wake of ruin behind htm, entailing sorrow untold and death. A year ago and DeBaun, the pay ing teller of the National Park Bank, was one of the most-trusted bank officials In the city; a leader of society, a man honored and esteemed by a 1 who knew him. His house last New Year's day was the scene of generous hospitality. To-d.v his family Is homeless, and be himself peers througn pitson bars awaiting the sentence which -v 111 consign him to prison, perhaps for the remainder of bis life. A most pitiful case was that of the teller of tbe Nineteenth Ward Bank, who last week confessed to a theft of seventeen hundred dollars. Tbis man, handling millions, was expected to llye and keep a family on twenty dollars a week. The stockholders drew big divi dends, but they iiave tills trusted servant less than the wages of a mason or a brick layer. He was sorely templed by poverty, and In an eyil hour he fell: the first step was bis ruin the money ho took he ex pected to replace; he fouud it Impossible to save It from his scanty salary, so be took more and Rambled In lottery, nollcv and the Bank (,ther aames. which led him down to ruin. Ho was not detected till be made a volun tary coufesslon; ho had been sixteen years a trusted servant of the bank, and ha never made a mistake till a year ago. On this New Year think of It, ye gentlemen who control finance; look oyer tbe salary list of your clerks and subordinates, and see if they can live as they ought to live on what you pay them. Let their hearts re joice at the opening year, and when you wish them a Happy New Year, let It have a substantial meaning to them. Let tbe Unpp New Year mean' something more than words. Let It leaye joy and blessing in Its train. Do this, and when this jear shall wither and die as the centuries have before It, men will rise up and call blessed iriiat you have got you soon must part with, while you live then, use It wisely. Another bow of promise In the sky for 1889 is found In the fact that tun Ma- ors of New York and Brjokl n are determined to stop tbe brutal prize-fighting exhibition which have dUgiaced both cities for ihe uast lew years. To such a pass has it come that every newspaper In the city ex cept The Mail ani Expreishns its sporting editor, whose business it is exclusively to report prize-fights. Notwithstanding the (act that It is a penal offense to make a match, or to go out of the Slate to flgbl, matches are made every day in tbe week, and eveiy hour In the day. And all you have to do Is to put up a couple of well known pugs and toughs (the fact of thcli having served a term or two In tbe State prison Is nothing lo their disadvantage), and you can draw to anv of tbe public ranks from 8,000 to 10,000 people, at from one dollar lo ten collar a head. For some reason, lh "Fancy," as ihev are called, selected ihe city of Brnoklin for the mosi celebrated of these encounters; and instead of prlze-fliibts ihey have called them ''ath letic exhibitions," tbe fee for which was twenty dollars. Tbe "Brooklyn Eagle," the principal local papvr, has fought loughs and theli friends; hut, as tbe Board of AI dermen was composed of a tough element some of whom bad graduated in tbe prize ring, Its efforts were futile, and almost every night several of these brutal encoun ters took place. The Mayor of Brooklyn Is a young man who has grown ralpdb In politics; though scarcely oyer thirty he has been- Assembl) man, Comptroller of Stat twice and Is now Mayor of the third city of ibe Union. He Is an lionet and ambitious voting man, who looks anxiously towards the possibilities of the future, and he has the natural instincts of a gentleman, but pandering to the politicians be has allowed these brutal exhibitions to go on till be was startled by the reports of tbe "Brooklm Eagle." Tbe "Eagle" conceived tbe Idea that the best way to awaken the com munity to the enormity of the crime, was to furnish full and graphic reports of every encounter To that end, several of the smartest and. brightest cf Its s aff were put upon Ihe nork, and the result was such a shocking revelation that the en tire community felt as If it bad been struck by lightning. One w.ouId icarcel) think that Christian considerations would enter Into such a coulest but they did Last week a Brooklyn tough by the name of McAullff met another brnte by tbe name Hyamt. McAullffe was a Chrlttlan and II jams was a Jew, and as a matter of courss, that part of our Christian popula tion which fills our penitentiaries and State pilsons did not want to se their Christian champioa beaten by one of a de spised rcs whose ancestors disgraced them selves at tbe cruciSctlon two thousand years ago. The cream of the shady portion i f our population, and the skim milk of tl e houses of Israel and Judah were there In thousands. Tbe representative of CI ri tl anlty was about as bad as bid could be, but the mug of tbe Jew, If be bad been In dicted for petty larceeny, would have tent him to the gallows for murder. The con test only lastsd about a half-hour, but so terrible was tbe battle that on of them with a frame of Iron and nerve of ileal, vas suLek4 tut aad Ir Ilk a d taas In future they must find some other place for their athletic exhibitions than the City of Churches. So. hopefulle, trust Inch and with un shaken faith that all will be well in the future, to lay tho old year to rest among the past. It brought Its share of grief and trlat and care; but It has also had It hopes, Its consolations and Its joys. Bright faces were absent from the watch meeting of 1888, and bright voices are bushed In eternal silence, which swelled the hallelujah fo 1888. They have crosssed the dark river, let us hope tn a brighter and better land be.iond Into the radiant sunlight of ever lasting day. And, as the cry rings out on the midnight air of 1889. Watchman, what what of the night ? back comes the assur Ine answer over the dark waves, "All's Weill" nappy New Year toou all.
