who helped him to. murder Paj master Mo
Cluro and his companion, near Wilkes
barre, hayo been tried In the Italian courts
for the crime and convicted. One was
sentenced to Imprisonment for life and the

on which to erect their works.
The citizens of this city can find much
to follow in tho example set by our enter
prising sister town. There is nothing like
hustling to make a town go. Everybody
get together and work,
We have it from tho genial Thomas
Arncr, pf Franklin, that ho will positively
be no candidate for the Democratic nomin
ation of County Commissioner at the next
fall convention, all reports to tbo contrary
notwithstanding. Tom, in bis capacity as
commissioner's clerk, 'has had a fair lasto
of tbe trials and tribulations of the oQlce
which Br'er Malloy would seemingly
thrust upon him and he don't want, nor
wouldn't take the nomination, if tho court
knows itself, and at this token Tom rather
thinks it does.
We clip tho following from a recent
number of Legal Miscellany of Flilladel'
phla. "lion. W. M. Rapsher, of the
Mauch Chunk bar, will coutiibuto an ar
tide for this journal in the December num
ber, .cntttlod? 'Aro Wo Drifting Tpwards
Pure Democracy?' Tho learned gentleman
takes tho position that tho government of
Great Britain, wi;li its nominal Queen and
House of Lor Jt, Is in practlco a model
Democracy, wulietlip government of the
United States, with il: u rliten constltu
tlon and. restrictions, give ui theory ani
practlco less freedom and liberty to the
.citizen, than tho English."
The recent steady increase in the mem
bership of tho Knights of Labor is certain
ly a gratifying sign of the amalgamation of
tho worklng rnasses into a common broth
erhood for tho support and protection of
their interests individually and collective
ly. Now, If they educate, organize and
agitate, as well as stimulate the organiza
tion by conservative methods of Instruction
and steer clear of boycots and strikes.thcre
Is much chance of a fulfillment of the
prophecy long predicted for this society,
namely, that it will work out much good
for tho masses who eat bread by the sweat
of their brow.
HOW WIM, IT WORK?
The chipper Lansford Record has this to
say of the president judgshlp, in an interest
ing article bearing on tho outlook of Demo
cratic politics in Carbon county.
For rresldent Judge the present occupant,
Mr.Drelier, Is In the Held, and a hot nclit will
bo made to give him another lease ot ten years.
TVhlle the nomination is supposed to be deckled
by the conferrees elected by Carbon and Monroe
counties, tho principal tussel will be In Carbon,
where Major Klotz will mako tlio last great
battle ot kls Ufo to glvo Judge Drchcr another
term, why ha fights so hard tor a man from
another county, when talent Is at homo, the
political novices can't comprehend. But know
ing once attribute It to an understanding, that
dates back several years, and which effects the
congressional nomination. That an under-
stading was arrived at between Klotz and
Drehcr cannot be denied, Klotz's lar-seelns
policy was partly unfolded when last year he
came out for Allen Craig for Congress. If It
was slraplya question between Craig and Con
gress on Its merits, Klotz would hardly bo for
Craig. Ho has not been In the past, and Tatrlclt
Henry said tho only way to judge the future Is
by the past.
The real Democratic rank and file of Carbon
will light under the home flag, bellovlns; It Is
time carbon stopped playing second fiddle to
Monroe county, which, by the way, has monopo
lized the Joint olnces for years. It has held tho
Judgeship for for twenty years, tho Congress'
man for eight, and holds the present Stale
Senatorshlp.' All this In face of the fact that
Carbon has double the roto ot Monroe.
On tho Judgeship tho Dreher party know they
cannot carry Carbon against a home man, but
Monroe may stand by Prulier, and In the oyent
o( two candidates being In the field Dreher's
friends hope to so manipulate the Itcpubllcan
party of Carbon as to obtain an endorsement
With that he would go Into the Held. That the
Itepubllcans will be caught In the trap, many of
the party workers outside ot Mauch Chunk ro-
fuso to believe, in tho event ot a Democratic
fight they bellero their party will fare best by
keeping hands off. At this dato that It the real
position on the Democratic Judgeship for 1890,

The Lehlghton Advocate, a live and

BROADBRIM'S 1 Y, LETTER.
,
Whenever I think of the magnificent
charities ot Now York my soul Is filled
with admiration for the ministering angels
that care for them, and yet It seems Im
possible for human foresight to shield all
tho children of misfortune In a great city
like ours. Aside from the city chanties,
which cost us millions of dollars, many of
our churches have organized bodies of re
lief, and there are many hundreds of pri
vate Individuals who scour the slums and
poorer quarters dally, and yet with all our
caro cases of suffering occur shocking to
contemplate, telling us in no uncertain
tones, that the millenium Is yet far olf.
One day last week a woman was found
in a room, almost destitute of furnltur
and everything else, In tho midst of her
starving children; tlicy had not tasted food
for nearly two days. When they were
discovered tbe mother was stark staring
mad, and endeavored to tako her life by
leaping from tho window. Ucr story is
only ono of a thousand. Young and
beautiful, she attracted tho attention of a
merchant tailor, well to do, and married
him. Matters ran smoothly with the
young couple for several years. Tho wife
was frugal and the husband industrious,
and their homo was happy as happy could
bo. Four beautiful children blessed the
union loyed by the father and adored by
the mother, so that nothing seemed want
ing to flit their cup of happiness. But in
an evil hour the father took to drink, then
ruin came swift and suro, Ho became an
outcast and a vagabond. Tho mother for
years struggled against fate, and last week
she was taken to a madhouse. Tbe chil
dren were passed over to Mr. Gerry's soci
ety, arid the wretched father was sent to
tbo penitentiary.
A newspaper correspondent tells the
story of an Interview with the girl wife
of Xfcllyaln, tho eighteen year old murder
er of the German groceryman Lucca, of
Brooklyn. Nothing moro pathetic can be
found In history or fiction than the story
of this poor waif, who will be the widow
of a murderer when she reaches fifteen.
When asked how she came to marry this
disreputable tough, she said, "Because ho
told mo that he loyed mc. No one ever
told mo so before." Did not your mother
tell you so? asked the questioner. "Oh,
no," said the poor creature. "She never
took me in her arms, though I longed to
get there, and she never kissed me In her
life that I can ' remember." Wben tho
mother was asked If this was true, with a
brutality worthy of a wild beast, she said,
"Ay coorso It Is thruc. I don't believe In
hugaln' an' klssln' an' spllln' 'em."
Speaking of her daughter, she said, "She
was headstrong an' I thrled to knock It
out av her, but I cudn't." How did you
try to knock It out of her? the Interviewer
Inquired. "Wli me fists, av coorse; and
ber brothers thrled to knock It out av her,
too, but thov cudn't." TJow? again said
the questfoncr. "Why, wid their fists, as
they had a right to. They knocked her
down an' beat her on the fluro." What a
revelation of savagery Is this! A poor,
weak, little girl of thirteen or fourteen,
who In all her life had never heard from a
mother's or a brother's Hps one word of
love or kindness; whose only remembrance
of homo was of beatings and drunkenness
and blasphemy. IKhat wonder that she
dilftcd awayl ll'ho shall be surprised if
she is lost?
But notwithstanding this there aro char
ltlcs hero tho record of which is kept In
the Lamb's Book of Life, and. whoso
stories of mercy and love will stand out
bright as tho noonday sun on tbe judgmeut
day.
W hat can bo moro helpless than a sick
and destitute woman? Ilomeless, friend
less, penniless in a great city, she sinks by
the wayside, and the mad stream of busy
life sweeps by her, each too intent on his
own.affalrs to think of the flotsam by the
way. Yet not all; the priest and the L-
vlte, perchance, may have passed on the
other side of the way, but a good Samari
tan is also journeying along tho road.
It Is over thirty years since Dr. Marlon
Sims, of blessed memory, founded the
woman's Hospital. Strange as it may
seem, up to that time there was no similar
Institution in tho civilized world. IIos
pitals thjio were by tho thousand, and
many where men only were received, but
neither hero nor in Europe was there any
hospital devoted exclusively to tho diseases
of women. A department was set apart
for those who were able to pay, but they
received no better treatment than the
homeless wanderer that charity had gath
ered from the streets. Dr. Sims early saw
that If the Institution was to bo a perma
nent success he must enlist the aid of wo
men. The names of Jay Gould and Rus
sell Sago stand on the marts of commerce,
and there where tbe money changers (Well
as tho synonyms of all that Is despicable
ana merciless In money getting, yet here
on the list of patrons I find tne names of
their wiyes, Mrs Jay Gould and Mrs. Rus
sell Sage.
But there is one other name there bright
and golden with blessed memories, which
stands out like a shining star gleaming
inrougu a stormy sky. Mrs. JFilliain B.
Astor for twenty years has stood the un
questioned queen of our social life. She
was the one woman whoso supremacy
caused no bitterness, for she seemed to
rulo by the authority accredited to kings
the right divine. No one except a person
acquainted with tbe exacting and relentless
duties of such a station can conceive tho
neyer cding work of such a life. Yet
this dead saint, worth untold millions,
stole away from her fashionable friends and
her luxurious home, to minister wltli her
own hinds to the wants of poor helpless
creatures who In their own estate hardly
knew what shelter was. A beautiful story.
is 101a or Mrs. Astor by one who witnessed
the scene. The lady was passing by one
or tue utile rooms where a poor wrecked
soul was silently passing away, no moth
er's voice, no sister's kindly touch, no
daughter's loye cheered the pathway of
the lone wanderer as she stood on the
verge of the valley of the dark shadow.
Perhaps as the clouds began to thicken
and her eyes grew dim she floated in fancy
through long years of sorrow and tears to
the home of her childhood, and she heard
loved voices long since hushed In death,
whispering softly In hor ear bright visions,
love and hope, sweet as silver bells. The
breath of tbe sufferer came thick and fast,
the death straggle being broken by sobs
and prayer. Tho lady paused for a mo
ment at the door, a woman was on her
knees at the bedside of tlio dying girl; In a
minute all was oyer, the spirit of the
homeless wait had taken its flight, the wo
man rose from her knees while the hot
tears streamed down her cheeks like rain;
it was Mistress Astor, the great socia
quebri, the wife of tbe hundred million
aire, You goed people, who read in your
newspaper gosslD the stories of our society
life, sometimes alsBgured by crossness and
scandal, please remember that some of the
brightest examples of charity and christian
lore are found among these whose millions

I want, and, as far as gold can, of sorrow
i and care, j
I The medical staff of this institution has
embiaced- the very best talent that this
country has ever known, Dr. Marlon Sims,
Dr. Aanow, Dr. James B. Hunter, Dr.
Thomas, Dr. James TFood, Dr. Charles
Oarroli Lee, Dr. Bozeman and many others
equally famous. For twolye years the
Board of Suigeons temalned unchanged,
and when tho retirement of some and the
death of others rendered the change Inevi
table, thcro was a sharp competition among
tbo most distinguished surgeons In New
York for the post of honor. The gentle
men selected to fill tho vacant posts are
among tho most distinguished surgeons In
our country Dr. Iloraco Tracy Hanks, of
Madison Ayenue, Dr. Henry D. Nlcoliand
Dr. Clement Cleveland; Dr. Bacbe AfcE.
Emmett and Dr. Thomas Addis Eramett
still remaining on this staff. This splen
did charity needs a further endowment of
one hundred thousand dollars to make It
self-supporting, a home where a poor,
friendless and needy woman can secure
such medical attendance as kings could not
bavo commanded a century ago. If tho
readors of the Broadbrim Letter would put
in ten cents each, the sum could bo raised
in a week. If some good soul who has
read my letters for years feels that tho time
Is approaching when her money will not be
of much moro use to her, think of the
Woman's Hospital of New York City and
lay up a few treasures where the moth
doth not consume nor thieves break In and
steal.
Blessed be Providence the elections are
over. Tho Democratic cyclone that struck
New York bounded over Brooklyn, caught
Virginia on the fly, knocked spots out of
Ohio, and made Iowa a dark and bloody
ground, and has raised hob generally,
strewing the sea and tho shore with the
debris of Republican wrecks. Tammany
Is on top. Dick Croker, the great sachem,
is looking around with aten million power
microscope for the remains of the County
Democracy so far he has made no dis
covery.
Among tho surprises ef the week is the
breaking of Samuel J. Tllden'i will. He
desired to found a public library, and gave
his house in Grammercv Parle and his
millions for that purpose, lie was a law
yer ot great experience, and knew all
about making wills, but he failed to make
his own so that It would hold, so New
York loses the library and the heirs get hi
money. Queer world Isn't it, where a man
can't do as he llkos with his own. If this
wlso old man failed who can succeed?
Moral: Do whatever you Intend to do In
your lifetime. Don't wait for some one
else to do it after you are dead. Just for
experiment try sending a few" thousands to
tbe Women's Hospital ; if it succeeds, try
a few thousands more, then yon can see
while you are alive tbe good you are doing,
and tbo recording angel will keep tbe gold
en pago all the same.
Youns TltULT,
