gaye 2,314 votes for llccnso against 003
aeatnst license. The vote then cast was
whether Carbon county should be a local
option county or not, It was decided In the
negative- by a multitudinous majority. The
lone now bofora the people stands no com
parison to the Issue of 1873, It calls for en.
tire prohibition and the ruin ef many mil
lion of dollars worth of private property,
The questlen of prohibition without com-
pentatlon Is a para! oil to the abolition of
slavery. If the peopl of Pennsylvania can
decide between the financial and moral foa-
turcs of the issue the Stale may go drj, If
thoy cannot, whiskey and lager will flow
as fraoly as heretofore.

BROADBRIM'S N. Y. LETTER
Is all thy greatness shrunk to this little measure ?
Snakuptar
0 Friday last atLeavetts' Art Rooms on
Broadway, the posthumous remains of Les
ter "Wallack passed under the anctloneer's
hammer. There have been many greater
and better men. men of larger acquirements,
men whose lives baye left a more marked
Impress on the age and body of tbe time,
bnt there are few in his own country who
have held so conspicuous a place In the
public eya and who succeeded In getting
sncb an ample reward for whatever talent
he might possess. Ho came from a race of
actors; the acting instinct was in his blood,
and It nover left him on or off the stage
He was always on poise and as careful of
the effects he would create at the cafe while
discussing his pate at Delmonlco's as ha was
while figuring on the stago of his own the
atre In Roscdale or Don Ca:sar. His vanity
never deserted him; tottering towards sev
enty In his afternoon walks along the west
side of Broadway ha strove by artificial aid
to keep the same erect port as when he di
vided the honors of the paye with the hand
some Georgo Jordan forty years ago. Do
(he spirits of those who have crossed the
Jordan's stormy tide have cognizance of
the things that go on In this little planet of
oursf If they do, Lester Wallack's ghost
must haye passed an exceedingly uncom
fortablo afternoon last week as he saw his
vreclous vestments and relics knocked off
for lass than is usually bid for a second
class hand-me-down. Imagine Don Ccetar
after his transformation, gallant In silks,
velvets and feathers, booted and spurred
bis Andre Ferrara gleaming by his side,
Ah, met It was, indeed, a gallant sight
A I close my eye I can see him now;
can hear the ringing cheer that greets hi
coming: I can almost bear th heart beats
ef the delighted maidens who exclaim : "Ob,
oh! ain't he too sweet for anythlngl" And
to he was, a prince of the blood In his
realm. Think of all this splendid garniture
going under the auctioneer's hammer for
seven dollars 1 Mercy on me, but It's a ter
rible fall! Don Felix for five dollars; Elli
ott Grey for seven dollars and seventy-five
cents; Hamlet for two and a quarter,
it possible? Is It possible? Why, I recollect
the time, and that not so' many years ago,
when one of his old shoes or a ragged pock
et-handkerchlef belonging to him would
have brought more than this, when sighing
tonne maidens and eyen married ladles had
bis photo framed In gold upon their dress
ing casts, and It was said some of tbem had
little altars made where candles were kept
constantly burning before his loved effigy.
The gaping crowd ttood around and exam
ined each article critically; there was no
sentiment In It whatever, not the least;
thay wanted their money's worth and they
got It. Occasionally there was a slight rip
ple among the crowd, which was mostly
composed of actors and old clo' men, when
tome relic was pat np linked with the gold
en past ft dagger of Edwin Forrest's, a
sword of Keau's, a doublet that belonged
to George Frederick Cook and some relics
of the elder Wallack. But enthusiasm was
dead dead as Wallack himself and the
entire lot that had cost thousands upon
thousands of dollars, costumes which the
fvrerltellctor had racked the resources of
his fertile brain In designing, brought less
than a paltry seven hundred. '
Ant to pasits another marked character
frost the stage of our dally life. The tbiea
theatres that once bore his name bear It no
more; the first has given way to the de
mands of commerce and Its site is covered
by magaiftcent wholesale dry goods stores,
The other has changed Its name tq the Star;
and the last, which was built expressly for
htm and was Intended to be the abiding
home of fashionable drama, passed from
his bands after a series of financial dltas
ters which brought blm to tbe vergeof ruin.
So that after a successlonal professional life
of over forty years, during which be re
ceived greater rewards for his services than
the people of the United States pay tbelr
President, ho was only saved from want In
k his latter days by tbe considerate kindness
ef professional friends, who, bearing of bis
needs, got him up a monster benefit which
was responded to by a grateful public and
secured him those comforts at bis death
which be might otherwise have lacked.
did not tbare In tbt popular sympathy so
lavlshlngly expeadtd en tbe fayorlte actor
In hit latter dayt. My reasons were that I
thotght be had received ample compensa
tlon for everjthiDg ha had ever done, bis
personal receipts from his profession being
.ccrttUly Mt lots than halt a million of dol
lars. lie had tlia bait of QTervthltig while
llrtdihli town houso nd hti countiy
bouse, his yacht and bis shooting box; I a
courtad the most oxcluslva and aristocratic
society, and whlla nerer admitted to the j
Inner Banbodrlan of New York society,
wandering noblemen from Europe like the
Dnke of Marlboro and Lord Lonsdale found
In him a genial companion, who never no
ticed In public any of the humbler mem
bers of his profession. With the sale of bis
wardrobe the curtain rings down on the
last act, and the busy whirl of our New
Yark life tbe yery name of this once pop
ular Idol will ba forgotten.
Several times within the past few months
have felt called on to report daring rob
beries, but three. robberies took place last
week that throw tbe exploits of Claude Dn-
yal, Dick Turpln and Billy the Kid Into the
shade. On Wednesday afternoon there was
blockade of street cars on the Bowery,
and hundreds of peoplo assembled on the
sidewalk to see the fun, tbe crush became
quite heayy and It seemed to concentrate
about a jeweler's shop a few doors f rem the
corner of Grand street. The window was
full of watches and diamonds laid out In
tempting array. Quick as a flash of light
ning canio a terrible crash and two young
thieves who bad broken the Immense glass
window reached In through th opening
and grabbing eyen thing within reach start
ed off like a couple of deer pursued by the
howling crowd. They scattered diamonds
and watches as they fled, and therein lay
their salvation, for the crowd stopped to
pick up the jewels and the watches, and In
the scramble '.he thieves escaped. This
was about three o'clock In the afternoon
on the most public thoroughfare of New
York and In the presence of thousands of
people.
On Thursday a lady was knocked down
with a sandbag by a ruffian In the middle
of the afternoon and robbed of her watch
and forty dollars In cash. While a German
who had just drawn five hundred dollars
from the Savings Bank was on his way
home on a street car, two men jostled
against him and on the Instant he felt his
money going; be grabbed for the bag which
contained It and which was hidden In an
Inside pocket. The struggle was brief,when
one of the men knocked him oft the car,
and when no recovered his money was gone.
The robbers ran In differentdlrectlons. The
pursuit, was immediate and one of tho men
was run down, but It was not tho man wltn
the money; however, the next day when
the thief who was captured waa arraigned
before tbe police magistrate the poor Ger
man who lost tbe money recognized sitting
among the crowd the other thief who had
assisted In the robbery. He told the court
officers and they watched the pair and soon
found them exchanging signals; then the
thief who was free advanced towards the
prisoner and offered to procure him coun
scljhe was at once pounced upon by the
officers, and to their great delight he turned
out to be Abe Coakley, one of the most
daring hank robbers and expert sneak
thieves in the United Statos. Nearly 'one
half of Abe's life has been passed behind
prison bars; but during the other half be
has contrived to make it very uncomforta
ble for bankers and all others who had loose
money. I hardly know how. Abe could
have got so low down as to commit a rob
bery on a street car, be has generally flown
for higher gamo for during his life ho has
relieved banks and Individuals of oyer a
million of dollars.
Tho war which has been raging for over
two years between tbe English and Ameri
can branches of the Salvation Harmy, cul
mlnated last week in the deposition 'of
General Moora, who led tbe American re
bellion two years ago, which resulted In the
separation of the English branch from
that situated In the United States. It is
several years ago since General Moore led
the Invading hosts of Salvationists from
Halblen's Hileto the dominions of Hnncle
Sam. The field was large, the harvest was
great, and the Head Centre, Pope or Grand
Lama, or whatever he was, General Booth,
was much rejoiced thereat; as golden Amer
lean eagles rolled Into the London treasury.
It did not take many years for General
Moore to realize that. It would not bo a bad
Idea to horganlze a Harmy of 'Is hown.
Whether this Idea was the prompting of a
good spirit or the work of the devil I can
not tell, but as soon as General Booth learn
ed the treason he made thing exceedingly
warm for Gendral Moore. He started for
tbe United States at once, and his son Bal
lingtoa wis hordered to the front to dowu
tbe Satanic cohorts of the rebels. Hailing
ton Booth is about six feet two and weighs
considerably oyer eighty pounds. General
Moore Is about five feel one and tips t' o
steelyards at nearly two hundred, so fur
the advantage was on neither side, boib
relied on the Lord tor help, and what one
lacked In length the other made up In
breadth, so that It was about an eyen thing
alt around; but Balltngton Booth was not
an opponent to be sneezed at- He had
served an apprenticeship under bis father.
and knew what rough fighting meant. He
bad wrestled with the devil among White
chapel toughs and bad thrown him tvei
lime, so he was not at ail scared when he
came to the United States and tackled Gen
eral Moore. On tbe other hand, General
Moore was all covered oyer with spliltual
scars which he had received la his numer
ous encounters, and when It came to fight
ing he was not afraid of the devil himself,
When Balllngton Booth arrived here he
opend his batteries at once, and now after
a two years' struggle It is announced tbat
General Moore Is deposed. Tbe General
announces, however, that be Is sot jet
dead, and It looks as though General Booth
may find blm a yery lively ghost. He Is
not yet deserted by all ot his friends Ash
Barrel Jimmy, Banjo Charley and Hoop do
doo Sam stick to him; this with a stout
contingent of Salvation lasses may help
him to Hold the Fort; meanwhile we wait
with bated breath for new from the seat
of war.
Our sister Brooklyn Is In trouble. For
five days not a car has stirred oa flye of tbe
principal strert car lines, and this means
that out of 650,000 i tople over 200,000 must
get to their work as best they can over dls
tances varying from two to five miles
Nearly every road in New York is also tied
up. The strikers amount to a few tbous'
aitds, tbe people who ara, Incommoded are
at least two hundred thousand, and notice
has been served on tbe companies that as
long as they don't attempt to run any cart
there will be no disturbance, but If tbey do,
look out) Now In this free ceuntr; of aura
no man questioL th right of any other
man to leave a sltnation that does not suit
blm, but to say that he holds a permanent
mortgage on a situation which he blmself
can abandon without question at any time
is monstrous. After both parties baye wor
ried and harried each other for several days
or weeks, when tbe men are starring and
their families are suffering and the employ
ers bave suffered eerlous loss they will coma
together and patch np a peace that will last
till the next strike. Sooner or later this
question will bave to be settled, and the
only possible way Is In tha proclamatlen at
th absolute Independence of tbo working
nr laboring man, tlio rlslit to dlipoia of his
labor wllliout Inlerfcrcnco from any other
maa atidbeulnd blm all Ibo power of tbo
Stato and nation to maintain blm In that
right. Both tides In the present dispute
seem determined, and the slightest move-
ment on.i-ltlier side may plunge us Into a
conflict that may result lu bloodshed and
disaster.
Tbe weather still continues very much
like spring. January Is gone and as yet no
serious symptom of winter. What Is In
store for usf Let us wait and see.
Truly yours,
BROADBRIM.
