A copt of the Weekly Sentinel, pub

speaks thus complimentary of Mr. Wm.
Craig, brother of Col, John Crale, of Le

has been nominated by the prohibition

Gage county. If all the parties that are
now striving for political honors would
nominate men of as clean a record, both

work of searching for bodies and clearing
up the debris are now being made amony

of the fact that thousands of dollars sub
scribed by tbe generous people of tbn
country still remain unused, while the
people here are clamoring for a settlemeni
to enable them to make needed uoceisan
improvements. The money Is here but the
trouble is to get it. But notwithstanding
this everything goes here, frame building

idiucesre contracted for dally, so tha'
the new Jphnslown, which will rise Phcen

a modern city of lofty brick and stone

BROADBRIM'S 11. Y. LETTER
An Inquest toon place here on Thursday
last which has no parallel in our criminal
records, and which but for a criminal In
terpretatlon of the law by cn imbecile
coroner and jury might nave sent a young
cirl of fourteen to States Prison for tho
rest of her natural life.
The Inquest reveals a state of affairs on
the east side cf town which is a blot upon
our city's record and a disgrace toour civil
izatloa. We talk about the Ignorant
masses of Europe and plume ourselves on
our superiority, and vet anothlng more
shocking could be seen In the purlieus of
Wuitechapel or tho slums of the Fauborg
St. Antcine, than the crime which was
committed in-the Eighteenth Ward, right
in ths heart of the city. Whr.t makes the
offence particularly appalling is, that all
i'o participants were young girls, tbe old
cai of them cnly sirteen yeara of age an
the plrl iccu3ed ci the brutal killing was
under fourteen. Julia O'Connor and
i">fl3 IJIller wets CMh girls in Heme'
r;re?t drjfioods store and had boen friend?,
On their way heme from work they began
to twlk oi the relatlvo merits of the blocks
on which they 'lived, Julia O'Connor as-
cert dp taat tbe block on which Magcl
Zililer lived was a 7ery tough blc'ck, and
rieclarlr-i that she would not live there on
any account, and MaftRl3 Mlllor asserting
that tie? wouldn't have euch a chfjaite:
as Ju'.ln O'Ccanor cn their Vlock, for If
she came there they wcnli knock her out
Thja Julia aaid then wasn't a girl cn tho
bloci: could knosk her cut, and that she
cculd lick any girl of hor slse in the Elgh
tssnth Wsxi. And right here let me add
Itso the Eighteenth Ward contains some
ci '.he touches, aad hardest characters in
ths zi'j. It begins in tho Slrth avenue
ritul runs on the lines of Fifteenth and
Tworjty-fifth streets right across the city
to the es.-t. Fi-osj tho Sixth to theSecou
avenuo the quarter may be called arlstb-
crctle. It takes in Union and Afadison
Squares, meii7. of the leading tr-eatres,
hotels and great stores; Tiffany's, Lord &
Tayior's, Brooks, Sloan's and many oth
era, but after you pass tho Second avenue
tbe panorama changes. Whole streets are
lined V7lth tenement houses that swarm
with a low class population. It is larel
t'oteign, and on eyery floor day ard night
Is heard tho whirr of the sewing machin
end tbe beating of hammers, for the Inbab
Hants of this uncanny hive are fighting
herd battle for life, and it Is either work or
starve. In these tenements there is a state
of continued" warfare between the occu
oants and it is no uncommon thing fur
people living on the Bamo floor never to
exchange a word for months except in
anger. Of a summer evening boxing and
wrestling bouts aie the principal amuse
ments of the young men and boys, and
many a lively scrap on the sidewalk, has to
be stopped by tbe police; nor are these
bouts exclusively confined to the ouni
men, young women and girls are ir.fecte
by tho" elate of morals there and desperat
encounters among mem are not uncom
mon, while men and bojs stand by to urg
on tbe disgraceful battle. It was iu Ibis
community that Julia O'Connor andjag-
Hie Miller lived.
When It was known In tho Eighteenth
Word that Julia O'Connor had said that
the cou d lick any girl In that classic loca
lly, there were lots of female SuMlvans
ready to try conclusions- with her. So
number os girls set themselves to work to
bring about a battle. Julia O'Connor had
just got homo from work and had fallen
asleep in a rocking chair. Magglo Miljer
met Maggie Quinn on tbe corner and tol
her to get Julia O'Connor to come out, she
wanted to flght her. Maggie Quinn went
into the house and roused the young gir-
From slumber, telling her that some friends
of hers wanted to see her down on the
corner. Unsuspectingly she started out
and as soon as she turned the corner Mag
gie Miller, who lay In waiting, flew at her
like a tigress, and then commenced
struggle for life and death, tho young girls
standing around and urging them on, am
at last when the Miller girl was celling ih
worst of it, four or flye of them pitched
upon Julia O Connor and killed her. She
lid not die Immediately, but lingered
through a few miseiabte weeks and then
passed away. What a scene to tecord as
hiving taken place on a crowded sidewalk
In the first city of the Union. A pack of
savages at Ugando or Zambesi could do no
worse. Tbe vll ainous pirates of the
Straits of Malacca could Iteapjnc nothing
more bloodthirsty or cruel. The names of
the combatants and the lookers-on are
suggestive Julia O'Connor, Magglo Mil
ler, Mary Ann Muldoon, Maggie Quinn,
Maggie Roach, Mamie JcMahon, Julia
Kelly, Bridget McCarty, Ilonora Lynch
and Katy Jonohan. These young girls
bar1 heard their fathers and their brothers
talking about Sullivan, Kllraln, Paddy
Ryan ted Muldoen; they had seen their
favorite beaus try conclusions on tbe side
walk, and they longed to emulate them, and
this Is whtt has demoralized and brutalized
the lowei classes of New York city. The
po'.lcj, for which we pay millions annually,
have beeu detailed to protect theso dis
graceful exhibitions, and John L. Sullivan
with bli associate ruffians and blackguards
has bad better police protection than the
xnsmbers of tb Iplicopsl Council who
sponslbllltv of It. A dozen witnesses tes-
tilled to the - brutal beating the girl re
ceived, but the coroner's jury, made up of
tho same material as the fighters, acquitted
Magglo Miller, and sbo walked odt of
Court free. Tho verdict Is a shock and a
disgrace.
Bourke Cockian Is preparing an appeal
for Kemmler, sentenced tp die by electric
ity, urging firstly, tint electricity will not
certainly kill; and second y, that It Is a
cruel and unusual punishment. While tho
trial has been going on and tho different
appeals have been listened to, we hayo
killed seven men right here In the streets
and Injured a great many more. On
Thursday a man was killed In tho middle
of the day on tho comer of Chambers and
Centre streets, and in addltlou to being
killed was terribly burned. It was a
shocking sight as his body hung In tbe
network of wires oyer an hour before ho
could be taken down, and the very next
day another man narrowly escaped death
from a falling wire, being knocked sense
less by the shock. Why this sudden Inter-
est In Kemmler Is a mystery. A more
worthless vagabond can scarcely bo Imag
ined. He killed his sweetheart In a fit of
jealous rage, rnd If ever man deserved
death he deserves It. I suspect that the
funds for tbe fight aro furnished by a rival
electric company which wishes to throw
ilisrredlt on the Instruments which the
Stato proposes to use. I would suggest
that they try the experiment first on
Kemmler, and then If they don't kill him,
appeal his case.
Strolling down Broadway tbe other day
I stopped on the corner of Twenty-second
street and Broadway to take a look at Mrs.
Lj neb's new store. Her windows are al-
was interesting to me. They are full of
domestic and foreign history and romance.
Rare diamonds, rubles and pearls glitter In
the cases and windows, every one of which
has a story. Here Is a pair of rare soli
taires, old mtno stones of purest water.
What are they worth? Mrs. Lynch says six
thousand dollars, but she will sell them
for Ave, for she wants money. Who did
they belong to? Well, now, you must not
ask mo;. I never mention names, but the
gentleman who presented them was a rich
banker, and the lady who received thcm.l
can't tell you her dame. lie defaulted in
his bank and went to prison. She fell
sick and sent for me and I bought tLcm at
full value. There Is a pair of diamond
studs that glistened on the breast of a great
bookmaker. By the way, It ba3 been an
unlucky season for the bookmakers and
scores of them have gone to tho wall. Here
are tho earrings and bracelets of a fine lad
who followed the races and who parted
with these when ever thing else was gone.
Prominent In the window was tha opera
glass of the Empress Eugene, and several
other souvenirs of that Ill-fated lady,
Right next door a genuine Turn sat In a
window making one of those rues for
which his country is to famous. The loom
was tbe same pattern which was in use in
the days of Moses, a rude, clumsy affair
made of the oung trees just as they are
cut down in tbo forest with tbo barlt all
on. Tbe making of these Turkish rags li
a slow and coatiy opert-tion. I have
stooped to see tho weaver twice, but his
progress in a week w&3 ocweely violole.
The week has bem e. acst brilliant one
theatrically. The Kendals at tbe Fifth
Avenue scoring a phenomenal success
say phenomenal for the placa in which
they appeared ana which Iias run r.il the
week to crowaed homes was pie.yerl iiy
H'allack here years ago aaa was supposed
to ho worn cut. At leas: one hall or tne
people had seen it before and many of
them several times, but it really seemed u
make no difference, it answered ail the
purpose of & new play. Tb!s ve3k they
play tbe "Master cf taa Forgo" which ve
haye had in severe! different shapes, tae
last by Jr.ne nadlnf; the fayonfi .' Paris,
who came over here withCoquelin. "Rich
lieu," well worn hut good, renaerea oj
Booth assisted by Modjeska. jeflerson,
Airs, Drew and Billy Florence lu "Tb
Rivals." If we bad John Giloert tor tbe
Sir Anthony tho cast would be perfect.
All the houses are doing well, and tbe
"Old Homestead" at the Academy has re
newed tbe success of last year. One of the
most pathetic Incidents o." tho weak is ths
death of an old gentleman from Boston,
who had come to New york on purpow to
see the play. He was deeply Interested In
Uncle Josh from the stf.rt, F.nd when the
old man got in trouble it was too mucn .or
him, he fell back n his seat oad died
when they got him in the lobby. The
night beforo an excellent actor, C. B. Bis
hop, fell dead just after leaving the stage
at the Madison Souare Theatre.
The destruction of Dr. Ta'mage's
Tabernacle on Sunday morning has left
the eloquent pastor free of foot for his
excursion to the Holy Laud. . It is said
that Dr. Talmage appeals to Christendom
to help hi 'ii to rebuild his church, though
why he should do so I am at a loss to con
ceive. The entire loss Is less than forty
thousand dollars, rest the Is covered by In
surance. He has tho largest congregation
in Brooklyn, between thrco and four thous
and. Many of them aro very rich men
Tho Doctor himself is wortli at least one
hundred thousand dollars. With their In
surance. $130,000 dollars, and twenty
thousand raised by the Doctor himself and
his congregation, he can build one of the
finest churches iu Brooklyn OurSavlour,
nor any of the apostles, never had a hun
dred and fifty thousand dollar church, and
that ought to be good enough for our
eloqueiit fiiend Doctor Talmage.

without a license. The evidence showed
that MeLaugbliu had taken orders in
