IToa. IV. M. Raps I! Kit, of tlio Afauch
Chunk liar, has dUtlnsulsbed himself bj
contributing another article to the Decem
ber number of Legal Miscellany, a noted
law matrazina nubllshcd at Pliiladetnlila.
entitled, 'Are we Drifting Toward Pure
Democracy ?" As the aitlclo covers five
pages of the magazine we liava not the
space to elvo It In full. After analyzing
the theory and workings, and drawing dig
Unctions between the Government of Great
Britian and the United States, Mr. lUr
sitKit Bars: "It Is quite probable that
man jlntelligent people In the United States
and elsewi ere have not vet discovered that
tho Government of Great Urlllan is vcrj
much moro democratic In Its practical ad
ministration, than tho Republic of the
United States, but It nevertheless Is.
I shall conclude by calling attention to the
principles and objects of the rapidly grow
lnc Single Tax Party among thoughtful
men all over the world, as one of the
strongest and most conspicuous factors In
the movement of nations toward cure
Demociacv Labor strikes and most other
manifestations of social discontent, plain!.
Indicate the puro democratic initlnct In the
boarts of tho people. Whether wo like It
or not, It seems there is eypiy where
marked tendency towards pure democracy
in govetntnenl, and this tendency will
probab'y become stroneer as 'the people
become more Intelligent and more consciou
of their inalienable rlgbi."
BROADBRIM'S 1 Y. LEIT
It Is something In this hard work-a da
world to have at least one day In thejeai
that you can put care and trouble behind
you, when jou can forget for the time thai
you am growing old and useless, and Ilia
on the Ledger of Life there are not man)
more Christmas Eves to your credll
What of It? You'll never bo missed ; the
hells will ring out the same joyous, jubilee
Santa Cla s will make his ghostly round
as of r,oro, and the hearts of millions
children will be made glad In the chill gray
of the Christmas morning by the treasotes
that the jolly old saint lias left behind
him
After completing the task to which this
night Is ever sacred, of filling little stock'
ings, I have always dedicated the last hour
or two before midnight on Christmas Eve
to a lonely, quiet vifill. Yet not so lonely.
Ob no; for up out of dream
land come trooping a caravan of sweel
faces that I knew and loved In tho lruii
ago, and wblub come back to me otrerv
Christmas Eve. Not ghostly shadows,
damp with the mold of the graveyard and
the tomb, but bright and beautiful as whei:
in life's sprlngtimo I wandered with them
through the pleasant fields, plucked the
sweet flowers by the wayside, and eacl
moment of life seemed like a glorious
summer holiday. Nor was It only In the
springtime, thai this happiness blessed the
flying hours. Bleak winter with its boar
frost, its Ice and Its snow was as welcome
as the spring, and the sound of the sleigh
bells was a3 sweet music as ever greeted
human cars. No, I am neither lonely or
sad to-night, for the great majority Is on
the other side, and In the blessed hope ot
an everlasting communion with them, In
a future not far distant, but illuminated
with, bright light and hope, I rest I
measureless content upon Christmas Eye,
Come, gather around mo friends of m
boyhood; It seems but a span back to my
childhood's days. The grief, the tear
and the agony of the parting aro all for
gotten now that you are back with me
once again and sitting leyingly about mv
feet. Why do you look at me so wonder
ingly? . Oh, lam so changed. Perhaps so
but you are still tho same to me; not
feature altered, not a hair bleached, the
bloom ou the cheek and the fire In the ej
are still the same as In the long ago. And
so In sweet communion with all I loved
and knew In the past, who have crossed
the silent river, the brief hours slip away
and as the bells ring out the Christmas
anthem, with a kindly farewell they vaulsh
into the night, but In their vacant places
Christ has come. Hall, Son of Cod
Saviour of men, all baill
I look up to the chimney corner; there
only one little stocking hanging thero to
night. Last Chrl9lmas Eve there were
two. 1 There are you, little to? where
are you? Come back to me, only for
minute; only tor a mi me. let, ine once
more feel our arms abi.t mj m-ck mi
your warm cheek pressed clu .
it was last Christmas Ere befu v
down to sleep, that Santa Claunn,.
with bis gifts to the good little bhj.
Comeback, little boy) Oh, come back,
only a minute; only a minutel Ills mother
sleeps; perhaps she is dreaming of hlin;
perhaps once more she holds him to liei
heart? I steal softly to the bureai and
opening the drawer, see a box tied with
crape. I open It. Yes, there; Is the ball
and the marbles, the knife, the bandker
chief, the llttlo shoes, and stocking, and
the little watch and chain that made his
heart so glad. Yes. they are all here,
sacred and holy this Christmas Eye, but
the little boy is gone; gone to come back
to me no more. Good bye. little bo ;
goodee bye, goodee bys; but not forever
Oh, no; the sweet bells that ring out
through the shadows of this starless night
bring to me bright visions of hope and
everlasting promise in the summer land be
yond, and so I trust blm to the messenger
who comes to me to-night on the wings of
love, and to Christ's care I commit him,
satisfied that In the everlasting all will be
well with him, for he has said, "Suffer
little children to come unto me and forbid
them not; for of such Is the kingdom of
neaven," and so, uoodee oyfl, iidlea boy;
goodee bte, goodee bye.
It has been a week of toilsome pleasure
and sacrifice. Two knotty questions bare
bad to be eolred by hundreds of thousands
of people H'hat to get? and bow to get
It? Ah, the bitter struggle and sacrifice
of that, How to get It? Templing as the
luscious fruit that beguiled our first
mother, are the glittering gewgaws that
fltl these wonderful windows. What
genius I what patient eudeavor by which
these miracles of art ware wrought! Here
is a little album stand; Its component parts
are nothing a bit of pasteboard, a strip of
satin and a few pigments tpread deftly on
by a master-band. Yet what a vision of
loveliness it Is. On earth there is nothing
'ike it. It li dreamland and the home of
.annuls. Tre uiilDsr of lbs artist ha..
made a few crude materials, almost worth
less in themselves, worth a hunured
dollars; and so all along the Hue one is
tempted to financial ruin by the alluilnc
gilts that He on either hand. The extent
of purse measures tho standard of wants,
bit the Christmas tree blooms alike in the
homes of Dives and Lazarus.
Tho week has been notable by a great
number of Important social events, but
there was one I passed over last week
which It worthy of moro than passing
mention. I allude to the Patriarch's Ball.
It was mado remarkable by the return to
our fashionable social life or ward Mc
Allister, tho king of tho Four Hundred
Elite, aad exclusive association which Is
tUpposcd to contain all there Is of real bluo
blood and genuine respectability in tho
aristocracy of New York. Mr. McAllister
was supposed to have received his exequa
tur at our last Centennial, when ho was
deposed from his position of supreme
dictator and a man of straw put In his
plt.ee. But the men wbo sought to take
his place dug tbelr own social graves and
are quietly sleeping there to-day, No hope
for them at any social gathelngr of the
Four Hundred till the next Centennial;
they are all dead socially as Julius Ceascr,
or herrings which aro red, A hundred
gentlemen chipped in two hundred dollars
each, which entitled them to twelveluvlta-
tlons for their friends, but to Mr. Me.
Alllster alone was entrusted the Important
duty of luvillng those outside of the
charmed clicle. Now, when you are
awaro that to be seen at the Patriarch's
Dal I Is considered the highest social en'
Jorsement, you may judge how the inylta.
lions are coveted, We have our own
social traditions, and wo don't care whether
outsiders liko tlcm or not. They aro ouits
and that Is enough. A lady or gentleman
who has been honored by an Invitation to
Mrs. Astor's table has a carlo blanche to
everything good for the season, for who
ever has passed her Inspection Is supposed
!o be all right up to that time, aud no ono
calls that person's social standing iu
question. '
In Ihe management of these distingue
Hairs Mr. McAllister's voice has been
1 icrne for years. His outlays have
ueyjr been questioned. This lluio twenty
thousand do lars In cash was put iu his
nands to let the Four Hundred and their
friends have a good. time, and they had it.
If lie. should make It forty thousand, not a
living soul of his set would question hlin
te would simply draw bis check on the
committee, and that would end It. It
would be considered apiece of Inexcusable
Impertinence to say, Mac, what have you
done with so much money? .This was
what the Centennial committee attempted
to do, but Mr. JucAlllster did not propose
to soil the tips of his six and three-quarter
kids with a sot of paltry shopkeepers,
pedlars, mechanics and such like persons
No, sir; be was not that kind of mahogan
So he shook the dust of tho Centennial
from his No. 1 patent lealbeis and left tho
plebeian crowd to financial ruin and
social obscurity. But lie came to tho top
last week and enjo) ed a great revenge,
Holed the opening cotillion with Mrs,
Astor, and she blazed with diamonds like
a veritable Mountain of Light. In the
same set was Mrs. Bradley Martin whose
Effel Tower of costly jewels nileht have
drained tho mines of Ormusand Golconda,
and have exhausted the glittering treasures
of tho Persian Gulf. One enterprising
young female feuilletonist whose literary
pin feathers have just begun to sprout, In'
forms us "that the superb Mrs. Elliott
Kosevelt was garmented In an iuvesture
ot rare and costly satin." Ow, ow; but
that's fine. She wasn't dressed, she wasn'
attired. She was "garmented." Garmented
goods; that goes Into my scraobook for
future use.
Rosebud patties are quito the go. What
are they? Well, they are for the special
entertainment of young girls on or about
the eve of presentation to society. "Mrs,
Pendleton Simpklns requests the pleasure
of voui compauy to a Rosebud Tea, given
in honor of her daughter Mabel, Thursday
afternoon, Dec. 10th, four o'clock, 08-10
Madison aye." Rosebuds of various kind
constitute the sole adornment, and at part'
lug each visitor Is presented with a small
bouquet of buds. The sudden popularity
of these entertainments has driven Klun
der, our principal fashionable florist, al
most crazy a slnglo party using over
fifteen hundred dollars worth of these
beautiful flowers. It's a nice conceit, and
I wish I were a rosebud.
We are frequently exercised hero be
cause of the bitter prejudice and social
uitraclsm of our colored brother in th
South. It would not be much to our tlis
advantage If wo occasionally took a look
at home. Last week three thousand Dock
laborers signified their Intention to sirik
uecause negroes were employed in un
loading steamships, and they demand of
the steamship companies that all negroen
shall be discharged, and that none bin
white men who aro members of their union
snail be employed. Nine tenths of lb
strikers ur Irishmen. The negroes to
'"hi were born on the soli; Americans b
,eir birthright, whom these foreignei
. ipose to drive out to starve. Thu Soutl
done nothing as bad as this, and let
u li pa that New 1 ork will not disgrace
Itself by preventing au native citizen fron
earning his bread at the behest of anj
foreigner, no tuatter what land he hail
from or what his pollllcal pull.
tte have bad lather a peculiar expert
ence wllh our Faitb-Curlsts. Jansen, of
whom I spoke last week, was fined fly
hundred dollars for den) log his children
wbo bad scarlet fever medical attendance,
which Is a penal crime under the statute,
There was a thousand dollars In the Faith
Cure Treasury, and after the seutence of
Jansen the members mot In their church
and begau to oraj and sing. Suddenly the
tieasurer arose and said he had a vision
rie was commanded by the Lord to go to
tar on land aud he saw a mighty ship a!
ready to bear him away, the mandate of
the Almighty was Imperative, and he
must go at once. They then prayed
little more, sung a hymn or two, and the
whole congregation started down to the
ferry; to see blm off. Fortunately enough
he had prepared his gripsack previous to
the vision and was all ready for a start.
They parted at thu ferry; the treasurer
making for an outgoing steamship, and the
congregation returning to pray. Suddenly
It occurred to some of those whose faith
was weak that the treasurer had the
money bag with blm. It may require
some faith to get back. Meanwhile poor
Jensen lies in tbe penitentiary working out
bis dye hundred dollar fiue at
a day.

The weather, though unseasonable, has
been like a benediction; the early part of
tbe week more resembling May than
December. Tbe consequence has been
that the streets and stores have not been
so full for years, Everybody seemed to
have a little money, and flity appeared as
eager to spend it at the inerubaots were to
got it. Thank God for one thing, and
that is thai Christmas is lwy teased
of blessing to the poor. I wonder If tbe
same Msbomet, or Confuetonc. or Buddha
unlocks men's hearts for charity as does
tbe name of Christ. Do tbe poor of other
faiths and other lands reloice upon their
natal days and bless the Almighty for their j
coming. Let us hone so; but we know
that wherever the cross points skyward as
tho sacred symbol ot Christian faith, the
hearts of the poor will be made glad In the
revelation that Christ has comeand is here
to-day. We need not to see him In the
flesh, as when ho walked on the stormy sea
f Galilee or rose transfigured from the
Mount. Tbe eye of faith sees In tho work
he has accomplished as tangible evidence
of his being, as Moses had amid the
thnnders of Slnal, or as Elijah bad as ho
ped heayonward In his chariot of file.
Aud so remembering tho poor with an
extra and generous bounty, let our hearts
rejolco with thankfulness and praise.
erbaps before another Christmas shall
roll around some of us may realize some

not, but If all sha 1 end In unbroken and
everlasting silence we shall be no worse oil
for the belief and the hope which was our
sheet-anchor, and our consolation here,
and which, when tho eye grew dim and
tho heatt beat faint, enabled us to walk
unfalteringly and bravely up to the gtlm
