COXE, THE OENER0US hearted autocrat of anthracite coal fame, for the consideration of a measlt (12 per year which an old couple aged 75 and U7 years could not pay as rental for a dclapi daded cabin and a few feet of stubble ground, had them forcibly ejected al Beaver Meadow one day last week. A bright comment this on America's boasted advanced civilization and the coal baron's open heartedness. Oklahoma was opbked to the wild horde of anxious boomers and homestead seekers at 12 o'clock on Jondav noon. The rush was stupendous, and carried every thing belore it. For many months the borders were lined with persons waiting the moment wheD entrance to the promis ed land would be announced and the lero' city with which they buve slaked off claims and propose to defend tnem looks as if Oklahoma was the only land In America that is not occupied. John H. Debsiiuck, of the IIazleto.n Plain Speaker, Is dead. Friends far and near mourn the loss of one who by indlpen dence, pluck and perseverance, combined with an indomitable hnnest.i climbed well up the ladder that leads to fame, there to scintillate for a little while in the brlglii world of journalism and then fade. A self-made man. a printer's devil In a country office, then foruian, then editor and finally proprietor of the only morninc newspapei in Central Pennsylvania. It was hard work, but a natural ambition urged him on with a fevor that no earthly object could swerve; true to friends and party, when friends and parly were r I slit, be was in domitable in his endeavors to promote their cause; he bad enemies because he whs aggressive, determined and true to the better qualities and th weal of the people. speaking fiom a long auu personal nc quaiutance with him: we say thai the peo pie of Hazleton have lost a valued citizen and the world of journalism a bright diadem. May his body rest in peace. Hon. W. JIT. Kapsheii of Jaucu Chunk has a learned and interesting article, entitled "Title-Deeds for Land" In the March number of the Legal Miscellany of "The American Law uejister, published at Philadelphia. Tills great legal pcrlodl cal, chosen by Mr. Itapsuer lor the publl cation of his article Is one of the most fatii uus and high-toned legal publications In this country. It mav well be said to be one of the very highest standards of jurisprudence, and Is regarded as such among all nations having civilized govern ments. The subject which Mr. Bapsher discusses is one that Is attracting great attention, not only In this country, but es peclally in Englatd at this particular time when Henry George Is making a great stir there In brilllautlv advocating the Single Tax movement and the principles of his celebrated "Progress and Poverty," which as Mr. ltapsher points out will, it success ful, abolish land titles as they are now un derstood, sooner or later. As a matter of of interest and public Importance we will republish Mr. itapsner's article in the ad YOCAte for the benefit sf our readers. BROADBRIM'S 11. Y. LETTER. As a matter of course almost everything in the way of business and pleasure has to give way to the coming Centennial cele bration. It grows upon us day by day, and we are beginning to realize that we shortly to witness one of the greatest civic and military pageants of the century. In carrying out a plan so comprehensive and s yast there are unavoidable jarrings and con fuels of authority, but these are minor affairs and will in nowise affect the ulti mate success of the celebration. In regaid to the assumed prominence of Mr. Ward McAllister and his disagreement with Mr. Fish, a word of explanation may not be out of place at this time. For a number of years past we have bad every winter a series of balls which were given by the elite to their trlends, and were supposed 10 embrace the very best or our old blue blood, and composed that social sanhedrim which lias been publicly recognized by the press as Mr. McAllister's four hundred. Every fall a meeting was called of fifty gentlemen who bore the goldsmith's stamp, and they subscribed a certain sum or money which was turned over to Mr. JicAlltster, who personally undertook every detail of the ball and managed It from beginning to end. He Issued the Invitations, he engaged the music, be suggested the menu, he ordered the wines, in short be was the general lactotum ol tue enure aiiair. JNobod.t eyor thought of calling on him for an account ing, and be considered it beneath him as a gentleman to make any reference to the cost. If there was a little surplus li was held for future use; if there was a shortage be drew ou the ntty gentlemen ror the amount, and bis checks were promptly cashed and no questions asked. The four hundred were out for an enjoyable evening enfamille. and they got it every time. When the Centennial ball was spoken of Mr. McAllister was at once chosen to take the lead in that affair, and whllea boedowu at a country tavern may be very easily got along with, a ball of the magnitude of the Centennial ban is a very different affair. Everything must be drat class and there will be at least ten thousand invited guests, all of whom are to be croperlv cared for. At the ball, asldr from dancing, they must nave meat and drink, and lots of It, for 1 have always noticed where It Is a free blow and nothing to pay, everybody Is very hun- giy and very thirst, . ihen comes tb question of precedence. What! In a He riubllcan government, savvou: where every fellow is just as good as every other fellow? Yes, sir; precedence to see who Is the fellow that goes first, and who is the fellow tbat goes lastl This mav not seem like a ver serious affair to the inhabitant of Skaneaseles or Bellows Falls, but It's a yery serious matter in New York, and is a question that now convulses the city like an eaithquake. When Mr. McAllister undertook his mission be imagined It was a sort ot gigantic patriarch's ball, of which ho would arrange all the de-ails and New York would furnish the money to pay the bills. As to telling everybody wbat he had done with the moue.t, or that anybody would dare to ask a gentleman of his stand ing such an Impertinent question, it never entered into bis head. He did not want to entered into tils neau. lie uiu noi want be questioned or catechised about such vulgar thing as expenses. A oentleman gets what he wants and pavs for It like a gentleman; be doesn't go haggling with a lot of yuigar tradesmen about a few paltry dollars. So Mr. McAillster utterl. refused the demand of Jfr. Pish for an accounting. Then war was declared and il has been pretty warm times all about the board ever since. McAllister thluks Fish Is a snob, and Fish tbinks .McAllister is an upstart. Fish, however, is on top, and McAllister, as a factor In the Centennial. is no longer the Imposing figure tbat be was. Notwithstanding the troubles inside of the committee, the preparations are be ing I rushed forward; couriers may be seen dashing hither and tbitber on special mmatres. TeleDbones and telegraphs are kept constantly at work, and the otliees the Stewart Building looks like the head- ouarteraofamlehtvarmvlust going into action.

It Is alto gelher probable that there will not be less than four hundred thousand people present. which in itself is the population or a nugn tv city. But New York and Brooklyn can tako care of them all. My advice Is, Don't wear much jewelry; If you have diamond rings, studs or earrings, don't try to para llze the New Yorkets by wearing them; leave them at home with Aunt Jnrla or Cousin Susan, or If you Do bring them along don't carry them in a satchel or in n pocketbook carried In vour baud;don't put them In vour pocket, but place them secure ly somewhero where me thieves can oniy get at them by tearing all the clothes off your back, and I might add yout front.

When the country was startled bv the news of Edwin Booth's sudden Illness he was Immediately brought lo hew Yolk where lie was a very sick man at the Play er's Club which he founded and dedicated oi. ly a few weeks ago, Mr. Booth retained a suite uf apartments for himself when he presented the house and all In it lo the cor poration known as the Players' Club. The name was considered an admirable, selection, but It in no sense indicates the general character of the Club. An ordinary mem ber of the dramatic profession, no matter bow respectable, lias no more business there than a bootblack. Usury Irving, Charles ll'vndhain or Salvlnl would no doubt be. received and made welcome, also General Sherman, Wliltelaw field, editor of the New York "Tribune ' anil our present mm ister to France, or gentlemen of that ilk, but the doors of the l'MNer's Club are barr ed lo the members of the profession gener ally, who must view It as Moses did the l'rouilsed Land, dimly and afar off. lo those who know Mr Booth the sudden collapse was not altogether unexpected. It is onlv a couple of years ago since he fell on the stage while playing Willi Salvlnl In this cltv. and other warnings he has had all pointing to a fatal termination. Witli good care neiiaspuiieuuirougiianu resum ed his profession, but whether ho will ever again be the actor that he was, is a problem tbat time alone can solve. One of our most popular annual fairs has been running for a week", the proceeds being for the benefit of tho Hahnemann lonireopathic Hospital. If any one wants lo understand what a hold homoeopathy has on this community he should attend one of these fairs. Tho secure for their success some of the very best families In the city, and ladles can be found attending the booths there who are seiuom seen out side of their own drawing rooms, except to drive In the l'ark attended by liveried ser vants. The crowd has been Immense and the receipts correspondingly large. One of the grand prizes which is being eagerly battled for Is a huge silver punch-bowl manu actured bv Tiffany, and which Is to be awarded to the most popular club, the question lo be decided bv the votes of the visitors to the fair, ror the privilege of which they pay one dollar each. The Leiderkranz, the Arlon, the .Manhattan and dozens of other clubs are all struggling for the pi ize, but whichever club gets 1 will have lo pat dearlv ror the honor. One day last week Mrs. (Jbarles u. Keep. the wife of the erratic editor of the "Wall Street News" who died over a year aeo, turned np In the crowd dressed In black and so closely veiled that not a living soul coul tell who she was. At last the manager old ber that she must unveil or go out, and It then transpired thai she was taking notes for a Bociety paper, and as she expected to give some of the ladles rats she did not want her personalis known.

And then without his sire's permit, Down on that box he sate. For 'twas a box of Ivory Soap, And buoyantly it bore That gallant child, who ne'er lost hope, Safe to the sandy shore. A WORD OF WARNING. There are many white soaps, each represented to be "JuttM good as the'tvory'i1' they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkabls qualities of the genuine. Ask for "Ivory" Soap and Insist upon getting it. Copyright 1888, by Procter & Gambit. 2 pas. 09 B pr O- O CD 3 If!, !1 EC o 2 2. SB Cj i - e-t- CD O 09 O a- "a en- 2!
