Thanks to the generosity iif Sena-
tor Scfauil the "LorI&UUt Record" l now
among the journals received at this onice,
Whila wa don't often find lima to lead It,
It makes excellent wrapping paper; cheap,
too, at twenty cents a hundred.
The TumiToniAi, dim. tasskd Con
giess and the President signed It on the'
22d of February. The constitution wll be
adopted on the 4th of Jul;, and If the elections-take
place before the organization of
the next House, the Republicans will have
a majority of three or four members.
Michael Rezillo, on "Red-Nsed
Mlka," was on Monday sentenced to be
hanged for one of the most diabolical crimes
eter committed In Luzerno county or the
Keystone State. It only remains now for
the Immediate carrying out of the sentence,
so tint justice, In a measure, will bn ap
peased. Let-the guilty wretch pay the pen'
alty for his greed and vice, and "may God
haye mercy on his soul."
The borough election is over, and
while not as many hoped for, It Is as a n
jorltyf the yotes decided, and all submit
to the powers that be the people. Those
who 'failed this time must try again. Tbdr
turn is coming. TVe belleye that the sue
cessful candidates will do tbelr duly fear
lasslr. conscientiously and to the best
interests of the borough, and that Is all we
bare a right to expect.
"OnSEBVEB" MUST BE LEBS PERSONAL
and not quite so scurrilous In his remarks
if ho. desires room In our columns to ex
press opinions. The stranger to whom be
refers Is an upright gentleman, and we
doubt very much If he made the canvass
referred to with a whiskey bottle In his
pocket or through the whiskey element,
Wo repeat, our columns are always open
for tin discussion of live matters, but not
for persons who haye a personal spite to
gratify. '
It will be ex-Pbesident Gkoveb
Cleveland after Monday. President Cleve
land will retire to New York where he will
become one of a firm of great legal gentle
men. Ills duty will be that of a councillor,
and one needs only remmber of his able
state papers to be convinced of the fact that
he will be eminently successful In the new
sphere. President or prlvato citizen, (be
country will always remember him as an
honest, faithful servant.
W suggest however that the Con
mlssloners proceed to collect the gas bill
and rent from the Cleveland and Tburman
Club or else pay the gas and rent bills of
tno Harrison and Morton Club. Which
horn of the dilemma do you take gentle'
men?" Ga&tte.
Well. now. here's a pretty gol The Idea
of an Intelligent and conscientious gentle'
man of Brother Obediah SIgley's stripe
advising the Board of County Commission
er's to pay a debt contracted by a political
club. The proper thing to do in this case
is to collect from the Cleveland and Tbur
man club what ever It owes for gas &c
The campaign was lively, everybody bad
lots of fun, and on demand the bill should
bs,pald. But the Idea of the county paying
the ha'.l rent and gas expenses of the Re
publican club, why, Brulhvr Obediab, the
the demand is ridiculous in this boasted
age of iutelligsnce.
BROADBRIM'S 1 1 LETTER.
On the corner of Fifty-third street and
Fifth ayenue there is one of tbe handsomest
and costillest Episcopal churches In the
city. Tbe congregation worshiping there
has among its members many men and
women whose fortunes are away up among
tbe millions. Everything about indicates
wealth and ease. There Is a something
about ,t,he very atmosphere that would chill
tbe heart of poverty if It attempted to pass
the maznlficent threshold. A half score of
aristocratic young gentlemen in full dress
suits wait .in tbe vestibule or within the
doors to usher the wealthy oewholders to
their seats, and over these' preside a large
and portly man, a very Turvej drop In ap
pearance and deportment; ibis Is tbe
beadle, Mr. Benjamin W. Williams, wbo
for thirty years has been tbe chief flunky
of St, Thomas' church. It was thought
that the race of church flunkies was dead
when Bumble died, but here In New York
we have discovered a specimen in Ben jamln
W. YTilllams that out-bumbles Bumble and
throws in the ebade our late lamented
friend Sexton Brown of Grace church, wbo,
although having the very highest regard
for wealth, blood, pedigree and church
nrlvllece. and no mean opinion of bis own
personal dignity, never in his life made
such a brutal exhibition of himself as tbe
individual who claims' to guide and direct
tbe nuances of M. Thomas' Episcopal
church. To tbe honor of tbe Episcopal
church be It recorded, the utterances cf
this wretched flunky have received no en
dorsement except from the ltev. Isaac
Tultle. of St, Luke s and irom a detailed
conversation with the correspondent, of one
of our morning papers, it is evident that
this reverend gentleman belongs to that
class of priests who would refuse tbe last
rites of the cburcn to a dead actor, and tell
his weeplug friends to carry his mortal
remains to the "Little Church Around the
Corner."
St. Thomas' church Is run at an exnense
of a thousand dollars a week, and outside
of that the collections amounting to $25,000
or $30,000 a year are divided among tbe
poor. Last Sunday a lady fiom Detroit
attended divine service there, and after
waltlne some time without receiving the
slightest notice from the ushers, she took a
seat In a vacant new. as soon as the
sexton spied her he went to the pew where
the ladv was on ber knees, and without
walling even till she finished her pra er, he
told her at once to "get out," she had no
business there, she was not invited, and in
short she must get out at once, which she
did. Irben bis attention was called to his
brutal act bv a newspaper reported, in
stead of being awakened to the fact that be
had acted like a brute and a blackgard, be
turned on tue reporter and told uuu that
they did not want outsiders at St. Thomas'
church at all. That it was no place for
them, that he turned such people out every
Sunday, and if the reporter didn't believe
it lei him come up the next Sunday and he
would show blm bow it was done. That
thev were not Jfethodlsts who ran out in
tbe street throwing their arms about tbe
necks oi every person mey met, saying,
"Come In. brothers: come in sisters, aud
get a Utile salvation l' N, no; wo are not
that kind ot people. It is the dollars we
are after. Our church is Just like the
Casino Theatre, ll you pat tor vour seat,
tov eat ill aud It you don't you don't.
Tn say that Tftw York is shocked and
amazed at this revelation ot church brutal
its. but elves a very laliu idea 01 the. com
motion It has causeu, ro sramiai, now
ever, applies 10 tue episcopal ciiurcu
Itself, which In Its provisions tor the ac
commodation of the uoor, Is equalled by
no other denomination in tbe citv. In the
Rev. Mr. Ralnforlh'a church all the seats
are free, and alincst every other Episcopal
church in New York and Brooklyn there Is
ample accommodation for strangers, who
are always welcome and are always politely
treated. Still the revelation of Williams'
'brutality will not be without benefit, and
ithlKfe HtsiT that it will talongUas3
before another humble worshiper will be .
utrneuouioi uouso oi worship in .New
York.
Our Italian colony Is a striking feature
of New York and occasionally It has Us
little romance. Kosa de Lucca came to
this eountrv a few years ago, and by Indus
try and thrift in the rag and fruit business
she saved sufficient money to send to Italy
for her younger slstor Mary Salvulto, as a
young Italian friend of hers who was In the
fruit business wanted a wife, and It occur
red to Rosa that her shter Mary would jus.
fill tlio bill. When Mary arrived at Castle
Uarden Rosa and the expectant bridegroom
were on band to welcome her, but tight
lura came a liltcli. On the way over Mary
lift') fallen in love with a genuine Italian
cnu'ii who had left hit beloved Italy to seek
his Ki:une in the land discovered bv Ills
illustrious countryman Chrlsloval Colum
bus, his solo possessions being a bag and a
book with which ho hoped to conquer "the
slings and arrows of outrAgcous fortune."
Argument and entreaty were all in vain,
she went oil with the count and Rosa te-
ttvrned with the sorrowing bridegroom (Hs
consulate to her home. A week had not
nassed when Alarv aODearert at bcr sister s
door begging for shelter, for the count had
run away rrora ner, stealing uer shops, one
of her dresses and a dollar and a half In
hard cash. She was in wretched plight, so
Rosa took her In. She loaned her a dress
and a new pair of shoes, and after giving
her her supper proceeded to mane uer a
shakedown on the floor where she could
pass the night in comfort. Her former
suitor had no use for her as she was a badly
damaged article, so the only way left was
to look out for a new husband who was not
aware of Man's little misfortune. A week
had scarcely passed when Kosa discovered
that her bubbv was not as affectionate as
usual, and this Induced ber to' keep open
her weather eye, and It did not talce ner
lone to find out that her own sister Mary
was the malefactor, and then tneie was a
row In Little Italy. Doth ladles, according
to the fashion of Palermo and Genoa, armed
themselves with shears and proceeded to
carve each other In true Italian sijle, and
both fought like tigresses. The result now
Is that instead of a palace bv the Lake of
Como Miss Mary will bo entertained at pub
lic expense in a ueauiiiui stone castie on
uiacKwe i s island, wnicn is uept expressly
for those persons that we can't properly
entertain in the city; and Rosa, minus her
back hair and with two scars on ner icu
cheek and a bad slash on the side of her
,, rniiilontns tarllvnn thn fullv of Invest- 1
nose, ruminates saqiy on tue tony oi invest-
ing her spare cash in the Importation
ion oi uer
Italian relations.
One of the most remarkablerevelatlons
In cburcli matters is the present status of
I'lvmoulh church. When Henrv Ward
Beecher died it was thought by many tbtt
the church which for forty years had been
built un and held tosetber by bis great per
eonallly, would speedily diop to pieces and
. i.i n..r ti,T nn ,r1 in h,BiiW
uerlsb. One thing appeared to beettled I
in the minds of everyone, aud that was that
a substitute might possibly be round, but
no successor. We all remember the strug,
gle to fill Plymouth pulpit. One popular
minister from London leu tue largest anu
uiost Dour islilnc concreeallon In that city
and crossed the ocean to clutch the coldeu
prize. lie left tbe eountrv a much grieved
and disappointed man, never to return,
Then by the unanimous vote -of tbe con
gregation the prize was tendered to another
who never dreamed of It or sought It. The
tender was most flattering, the salary was
three tiroes that he received In England.
the call was unanimous and beany. After
ptajerfut consideration It was declined
The Rev Mr. Ilallidav, Mr. Beecher's as
slstant. exnected a call: It never carao and
be retired from tbe church. Then, and not
till then did the congregation turn to their
own country for Mr. lieccher's successor,
Dr. Lyman Abbott had been Mr. Beecher's
life-long friend. Mr. Beecher was not always
orthodox accordlnc to the Westminster (Jon
fesalon. Frequently the Congregational
Council was scandalized by bis liberalism,
and his refection of the doctrine of eternal
punishment was tbe last feather that broke
the camel s back. .Ecclesiastical thunder
bolts bad no terror for the great Plymouth
castor, lie would bavo stood beside Mar
tin Lutber wbsn he nailed the Pope's bull
to the church door and would liavo driven
in a few extra tacks to keep it up. The
Congreratioual Council attacked Mr. Beech
er, but he always had a faithful friend to
take tin the cudpel for him. and iliat man
was l.yman Abbott. Unaffected by his re-
llclous vacarles he remained his fast friend
up to tue day oi ins aeain. lie nau ire-
quenllv occupied PI mouth pulpit In Mr.
Beecher's absence, and tbe congregation
;:ic- blm and his methods thoroughly.
V'U- si at last the call was made, Dr.Abbolt
d d -iol seem In any uudue haste to accept
it. It was not a question of Plymouth taking
Dr. Abbott on trial, but be took Plymouth
on trial for a year, and at the end of that
time be received a hearty but not a unanl
mous call. The result has )ustllled the
sclectiun as the wisest and best that could
Sosslblv bavo been made. No church In
irooklvn is more successful spiritually and
financially than Plymouth. Dr. Talmage's
congreealion Is larger, but In general pros-
aAW
gregatton. There are no longer .ho vast
crowds of strangers and sight-seeis that
there used to be of vore, but enough still
couip tosee the plain old bonse of worship
over which still seems to hover the spirit
of one of tbe grandest pulpit orators of the
century.
Truly yours,
