As a prothonalarv is not clccte 1 in tlii

will have a high old time keeping tv Iji

It is baid that a number of the shoe
factories burned out in the great Are at
Lynn, Mass., will not rebuild there, but
will seek other locations, Somo of them
may'come to Ibis State and where can they
find a belter place than Lehlghton.
We throw out this hint to our business

Will they do it? We'll see.
Good roads are a national benefit.
All business originates In natural product
which must Dud Its way over a common
highway before It can reach a market and
Us full value. Smooth, hard roads, well
drained, and easy traversable through a
largo part of the year furnish this outlet,
acd alone can furnish It. To neglect the
highways Is worse than to neglect fences

This Is a right bander, straight from the

those who rule the destinies of our little

BROADBRIM'S J. Y. LETTER.
The man's heart must bo made of stone,
or something harder, who can walk along
the streets and look Into tho stores and
not be moved In these joyous holiday
times. I don't care whether he has child'
rcn of his oth or not; if he has not, some
body else has, and It be Is so wrapped up in
himself that he does not and cannot re'
jolco with them, mark him down as
savage and a brute, and let him go. I can
see the ylnegar and the gall gradually ooi
lng out of the lips of old Scroogo's fingers,
and milk and honey running Into his hard
heart, as he listens and softens and
quickens for God and humanity at the
sound of the Christmas bells. As yet we
only catch them afar off through tbo cold
mists of the wintry morning, or the thick
enlng shadows of the frosty night, but in
a couple of weeks we shall be In tho thick
of It, when the chime of the bells and the
sweet music of the Christmas anthem, and
the joyous shouts of millions of happy
children shall tell us of tho closing of an
other cycle as wo huny swiftly along to
wards tbo end,
After a term of the most wretched
weather we aro reveling In tho bright sun'
shine of a few clear days, for which those
who haye been wrung by rhematlsm, nea
ralgta and tic doleroux cry Glory hallelu
jah.
I won't say such sights were neyer seen
before, but the stores are very beautiful,
Every dry-goods window Is a dazzling sea
of color of the most brilliant rainbow hues,
and as If not satisfied with tbo rich display
of their legitimate goods, many of the
stores have arranged their windows with
tho most costly tablcaus of fine wax figures
with appropriate scenery, costing several
thousand dollars.
This season is usually chosen for a settl
mg or accounts, and It would alnv-t fcum
to have been selected by our l',f.i, ill
friends as an excellent tlino to -
their spiritual ledger and see if tonic ..
improvements could not .be suggested In
their methods of conducting business.
There Is no dlposltlon to call In question
the excellence of the teachings of John
Calvin and John Kuox; all good Presby
terians are bound to acknowledge that,
they were the yery best that could be had
in their day and generation, but It has be
come a very grave question in the last few
years with the learned fathers of the
Church, whether tho methods advocated
by John Knox and John Calyin in the
sixteenth century are the very best that
could be devised for bringing sinners to re
pentance In the nineteenth?
This week the Presbjterlan Synod of
Brooklyn met in the City of Churches.
The attendance was exceedingly full, It be
ing understood that the question would
come up for th9 modification of the West
minster Confession. This Identical ques
tion nearly shook Andoyer to pieces a
couple of years ago, and It Is yery evident
from the vote taken last week that since
that time the cause of revision has not lost
friends. The meeting vas rendered In
teresting by the return of Dr. H. 8. Van
Dyke, one of tho most learned and emi
nent Presbyterian clergymen In the land.
xie retired from the council on the oc
cation of Dr. Talmage'a trial several years
ago, the council refusing to pass a yote or
censure on. tho great eyangellst. Dr. Van
Dyke accused Brother Talmage ofviolat
lng the Eighth Commandment, and of a
number of other naugbty things not sanc
tioned by the decalogue, but the council by
a small vote brought in the Scotch verdict,
"Not proven," and Dr. Van Dyke severed
bis connection with the Brooklyn Synod
and neyer set foot in It again till this week,
Doctor Van Dyke Is not only a scholar.
but he Is an old-fashioned orthodox Presby
terian, and like Paul, the stralghtest of his
sect. A kind, estimable, cbaravable gentle
man, but in defence of the Trinity or the
Thirty-nine Articles ba could heve stood
by John Calvin while Seryltus was burn
ing at the stake, and regarded with satis
faction the justice of that terrible auto da
te. But the clouds are breaking away,
Dr. Van Dyke was a leading spirit among
the reformers. Beside htm stood that
stanch old Presbyterian, Theodore Cuyler,
and a score of others whose orthodoxy
could never be questioned.
Some thought that the sinner's chaneb
was not ended with death, but that there
might be a season of probation beyond the
grave. This comes fearfully close to the
Catholic doctrine of purgatory. One
charitable brother thought that even
Boman Catholics might be saved, and un
blushiugly announced that to personally
knew several yery worthy people of that
persuasion whose chances for heaven, he
thought were pretty good. While this
staggering announcement did not beget
any wild enthusiasm, It provoked no
antagonism, and that of Itself is a subject
of congratulation. The yote, was nearly
three-quarters In favor of revision, a sure
indication "dat de worl do move '
SpaaUig i J)i, Talaago, -wmUdsrabU
unfriendly criticism ba -been-called out
by the appeal of the Tabernacle pastor for
outside aid to rebuild the church. What
Is most remarkable about this, Is that up
to the present time Dr. Talmaeo has roado
no appeal to his own congregation, ono of
wealthiest In the city, nor has he yet Incll
catod that he was eolng to do anything
himself out of his own Abundant means.
A local paper made a brief schedule of his
property In sight, and It foots up the com.
fortable sum of nearly a quarter of a
million, and as he came to Brooklyn with
out a dollar fifteen years ago, It represents
the very comfortable saying of silicon
thousand a year, in addition to his Hying:
Not bad that. I Icnavr a number of coun
try ministers that live on much less, for
Mr. Talmago's living expenses do not fall
much below ten thousand a year. Ho has
eighty thousand dollars In mortgages In the
city of Brooklyn and vicinity, and other
l Hnus stowed away. His salary is twelve
lioiiiand dollars, his income from his sor
ts nets him a large sum, Uls Is paid tu
i i a syndicate which negotiates wllh
he
lit ers for their publication. His
salary us editor is not less than five thous
nd, his revenue from marriages will give
,1rs. Talmage all the pin money sb re-
(llrcs, and a leading member of his con
gregatlon Informed me that just before his
departure for Europe ho refused Ufteon
hundred dollars for tbteo lectures. Sup
posing that he has twenty such offers In a
year which ho accepts, this represents ton
thousand dollars more, making In the
aggregate, with income on mortgage bonds,
Ac. an Income of at least forty thousand
dollars per annum. It Is not strange,
therefore, that Doctor Talmago's appeal
for outside aid should proyoko the un
friendly criticism that It has, for the
Tabernaclo pastor and his congregation
evidently forgot the good adage, "The
Lord helps those who help themselves."
IVith a wealthy pastor and a rlchcongrega'
tton they alght well leaye the world's
charity to those weak'and struggling con-
gregattons who aro crying Mco the apostle
on tbo
angry sea, "Lord save m, or 1
sink.
Pattl is back with us to take her fourth
or fifth farewell. To the horror of her old
admirers, she who left a little oyer a year
ago as black as a rock, comes back to us
wllh head of a London variety actress of
the Lydla Thompson type. It Is hinted
that tbe Diva, while sojourning at her
castle In Wales, discovered several gra
hairs In her capllary adornment which
gave her such a shock that she took to
her bed fora fortnight, and on her partial
recovery the doctors immediately prescribed
low diet and a change of air to sayo her
reason. A distinguished French physician
took In the case at a glance and prescribed
champagne externally applied, with tbe
happiest results, as far as the lady her
self is concerned, but to tbe dreadful dls
appointment of ber admirers and friends.
She has come back to us a full fledged
blonde, and we don't llkb it. It was in
tended to glye us a season of Italian opera,
but there is no house disengaged large
enough to make it pay. Thn Mctroplltan
Opera Houso is given oyer to Wagner and
tho Germans. Tho old Academy of Jfuslc,
tbe scene of ber former trlumps, is now
packed nightly to see Denman Thompson
In tbo Old Homestead, and there Is no
other place at present avallablo that will
bold money enough to payt There is no
such furor to bear her as there was when
she was here last. There were thousands
of people then who believed her when she
was here before', and said that It was her
farewell engagement. They borrowed and
begged five and ten dollars for seats, and
came away cursing their folly; they till
not bo caught again. But I don't think
Mr. Abbey expected to make much money
In New TorV; he cleared nearly a bund
red thousand dollars on her last engage
ment, but tbe bulk of It was made lu
Ilayanna, Mexico, and South America. 1
scarcely think she will repeat her former
iriumphs, but timo will tell.
idsr the plea of religious tolerance e
now confronted with a very grave
by the faith curlsts. This pecullai
fori., y, belief is not confined to Americans
riiere are congregations In New York and
Urooklyn composed almost exclusively of
Daues, Norwegians and Swedes. These
people do not believe in doctors. A few
weeks ago I gave an account of the death
of Jarle Olsen, a Swedish girl, who died at
tbo house of a countryman of hers of the
same namo, but no relation. When she
was dying Olsen refused to call a doctor,
and the girl herself did not want one, but
some charitable neighbors sent one In.
He prescribed for the girl, but Olsen did
not send for the prescription, and If be
had dono so the dying girl would not have
taken the medicine, for she believed that
she was In the hands of tho Lord, and if
Ue wanted to save her He would do so.
and If BJe did not want her to live she was
nunc wuuug to uie. Argument and en
treaty were entirely useless, so the next day
the died. Olsen was arrested, but was dls
charged wuh an admonition from tbe
magistrate. This week the children of one
Jansen were taken down with scarlet fever;
tue lamlly and several boarders lived lu
the Jansen rooms, and in the tenement
were fifty people. Tbe Jensens moved
among them every day. The infected
people rode in street cars and everywhere
else, and on Sunday went to their church,
which Is a wretched hall in Brooklyn,
where there wtre assembled about fifty
iaiin curlsts and nearly thirty children
During the services the church was raided
by the police, Jansen and several others
were taken to the station, and tbe children
were taken to the hospital by the officers
of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Children. Tbrre is a statute in this
State which makes It a penal offence for a
parent or guardian to deny a sick child
medical attendance. To comply with this
law Jansen sent for a doctor, but when be
cane In be thought he had complied wltb
the letter of tbe law, and told the doctor
tliat he might keep his prescription as be
would not give It to the child who was In
tbe hands of Uie Lord, Then followed the
arrest on Sunday, and as his offence is
clear, I hardlv think the Lord will Inter
pose to save him from the Penitentiary.
Yours truly,
BROADBRIM.

CHICAGO, IH, U-IS-8U
Friehd UoBTillMBft. 'Leaving Phila
delphia Friday p. m. I struck Chicago just
20 minutes late to make St. Paul connec
tions, I came over the Grand Trunk It
ought to ba Slunk line from Buffalo.
The train was late ono hour and these
breezy westerners, not caring a Tinkers
dan-n for one, would not delay the St.
Paul train that much to tako a dozen pas
sengers who wero bound for that desllna
tlon Tbete was no walling or gnashing
of teeth, but I can vouch for It that there
were somo peculiar guitcrat sounds com
Ing from way below resembling yery
much somo forceful Anglo Saxon, ex
pressed In all Its variations, but It had no
effect. The only thing that could be dono
was the expressions referred to or to bite
the lips, be easy and tako, a day oil In
Chicago. So here we are cot In St.
Paul as anticipated.
Well, this is a country of great distances,
possessing all the embellishments of na
ture's manifold proylsions. Thirty hours'
constant riding has not yet brought me
midway to my terminus. Nothing of note
occurred on my ttlp so far, only, probably,
the obsetvatlons I made of tho country
hrough whleh I passed and somo congenial
spltlts I met enroute.
The train steamed out of Buffalo about
7 a. rn., it crossed the suspension brldgo
some thirty minutes later. Here, by way
of parenthesis, It may bo safo to say that
this noted bridge Is a magnificent display
of Inventive genius. To give an adequate
description would require a critical exam
Inatlonotlts structure, Intricacies, 4c,
and haying but a casual observation time
limited tins Is Impossible. But my view
of the Falls and tho river of maddening
eddies proved a disappointment, because,
never having beheld it before, my antlcl
patlons as to the real were as great, so that
when I beheld It, tbo real dwarfed consid'
erably. But It is a sight worthy to behold,
the falls In tbelr plunago and Bound, and
tho river in its dashing fury, whirls with
awe Inspiring effect along its course. The
rlyer has cut lis way through a solid rock
to a depth of some hundred feet, as though
tbe passago were drilled by the hand of
man. It Is a remarkable thing and one of
those phenomenas that illustrates the
supernatural power of a great directing
band.
After leaving this point the ride Is
through Canada until Point Edwards, on
the St Clair river, is reached. Tho coun
try Is level, well timbered, with a rich soil,
To an observer, every side Indicates pros'
perlty, thrift and phenomenal development
of resources. The Canadians evidently aro
not behind the times. The rlyer at Point
Edwards Is crossed by ferry to tbe United
States. Here Is formed tbo connection
with the upper and lower lakes. Tho rly
er St. Clair is this medium. On the Can
adian side the train was met by what is
called a Customs Inspector, but - -who
should be moro properly termed a legalized
robber or bulldozer. IKhat a caricature,
fraud and humbug this system of official
Ism is upon tho laws of natural trade and
tbe communication as between man and
man. I hope the day Is not far dlstact
when this sjstem of feudal da s will be
wiped out so completely that It will only be
left for the historian to relate that a gov
ornment of the peoplo once existed and
may It be the last, that required a body of
sentinels to stand upon some passageway
and levy tribute upon that which by nature
was designed to benefit and make mankind
happy. To glvo a single Illustration, a
passenger was on board who bought 16
cents worth of Christmas tojs for her chit
dren. An examination Is made, the offi
cial says SS cents duty. Tho poor woman
said that all she caye for them was 15
cents and would not pay tho 85ents; Ee-
suit, the toys wcieconfiscated, probably,as
Butler bad it, as contraband good. Shame
on such governmental methods. inis
evidently was i case of applying the apoth
dry scales of Benjamin the Great era
18S9.
The channel between Total Edwards and
Ft. Gratiot during the coldest wtatber nev-
er freezes over. It Is a freak of nature,
for about a lfitlf mile above and below this
point a brldfo of ice is formed lasting
durlug the whole cold season. It Is evl
dently the handwork of God and stands as
a monument to bis design that there should
be no Interference as between man and
man In his social and trade relations. And
when looked at-in this light bow abomin
able it looks to see tbe movements of
man's selfishness interfere with these yery
laws as related above.
The cause of this open channel Is caused
by the current of Lake Huron's water
emptying Itself InU tho lower basin. But
from the boat, above and below, Ibe bridge
of ice can be seen. At this point also the
change Is made from eastern to middle
time. One Lour late. After leaving Fu
Gratiot the line is through Michigan and
Northern Indiana. The characteristics of
the country are similar to those of southern
Canada.
The congenial spirits with whom I jour
neyed from Elmlra to Chicago were a typi
cal son of Erin a Corkonlan on his way
to Los Angelos, Cal , Patrick A-cCarty by
name; the other was a whole-souled Kan
sas Yankee, D. A. Mcrwln, on way for his
home, and to finish tbe trio, It took a full
fledged Pennsylvania Dutchman, en route
for Montana. A rather diverse combina
tion, but full of good spirits and happy
withal. The rishman furnished the
amusement. He was full of Irish wit,
clever In tbe extreme and caused a con
tinual roar by bis Inexplicable notions and
Ideas of our country. He declared that he
came with the Idea of a few hours lourney
across the continent, assured us that In
bis day's riding he had seen fences what
we call worm fence enough to coyer all
Ireland. He was horrified at this wastage.
I could relate, if time would permit, many
of bis comments and Ideas. But shortness
prevents. At Chicago we separated, each
t0 uko a different route, and the soliloquy
Is, ''When will we three meet again?'1
Chicago, great Chicago. A city of mag
nificent buildings, wide streets, first-class
accommodations, of whizi, buzz, enerey,
business enterprise, Its Ilaymarket mas

wero my meditation. My mind was carried
back to tho frightful horrors enacted in
Paris in 1703; the causes that led thereto,
and compared It to the causes that led to
the outpouring of tbo Ilaymarkot upon
that eventful night. Out the tension In

For 1880, -
Some people agreowltu Tiik Suw's opinions
abo.it men and tilings, and some people don't;
but everybody likes to get hold of tlie newspaper
which Is never dull and never afraid to speak
Its mind.
Democrats know that for twenty years Thb
-tux has fought In the front tine for Democratic
prlncl. lei, never wavering or weakening lu its
loyalty to the true Int resti ot the partyit serve
with fearless lutvlllgeiicd and disinterested Tig
rir. At times oplnl.mt have dl'ered as to the
best means of accomplishing the common purs
pose; It Is not Tiik Sun's fault If It has seen fur
ther into the millstone,
G ghteen hundred and ninety Is the year that
nlll probably determine the result uf tbo I'r-'sl
deutlal election of 1892, and perhaps the fortunes
of the Democracy for the rest of the century.
Victory lu 18'J-J Is a duly, and the beginning of
1890 Is the best time to start out In company with
