m Fide Clroalatlon larger than that of
any Weakly tfetvspnper In the Comity,
BROADBRIM'S 1 Y. LETTER.
IK vraa Monday night) tho atrojts were
crowded; thronsb Chatham Square and
along tho Bower; a bus? tide ot life at all
hours ebbs and flowe unccaslnt-ly. Tlie
neighborhood la not a savory one; close by
Is Foil street, filled with opium joints and
dens of evil repute.. Just below Is Moll
street, crowded with dilneso gamblers and
Italian laiiaront: within i tol shot Is
Baxter street and tho Fi." Points, ami
along the lowor part of the Uo- i - '
dlvea of those harpies, known as .ji
museums, where green countrymen are
lured In and fleeced. Crime festers there,
and flourishes at all times and seasons, In
the summer's heat and winter's cold.
While the crowd rushed on with that re
sistless sweep, which marks tho life of a
great city, a man dropped on the sidewalk
mass of rags and filth. The sight Is too
common In New York to arrest the atten
tion ot the passer-by; only a drunk noth
ing more, call the police, and ring for the
patrol wagon. Yet, while the crowd gazed
on the wrecked creature who wrestled with
grim death on that muddy pavement, a
soul was passing away darkened with every
crime known to the human calendar.
Twenty years ago men trembled at the
name of Denny Brady or Jim Brady, as
was the name he was best known by. the
king ot the masked burglars and river
pirates, whose yerv name caused more ter
ror to the villages and towns along the
Hndson and the Lower Bay than that of
any robber of the century. Denny Brady
was the tvptcal ruffian and thief. In his
prime his strsngth was herculean and his
disposition so naturally savage that his
boldest companions In crime stood in fear
ot him. To incur his vengeance was to
conrt certain death, and no one knows the
number of murders he committed. He
was always armed to the teeth, and on the
slightest provocation his murderous knife
or his deadly pistol were brought into use,
The plunder secured by the gang, which
coaslttod ot Dan Kelly, Fat Conroy, Larry
OrlfQn, and big Jack Dally, could nothaye
been less than a million of dollars. From
the Kensington Bank at Philadelphia they
stole $100,000. having stcured admission
from the janitor dlignlsed as policemen,
under pretense of protecting the bank.
One evening the family ot a wealthy gen
tleman, near Tarrytown, on the Hudson,
was seated at dinner when a man stepped
into the roam, his face covered with a
black cloth, and holding a cocked pistol In
his band. The host thought It was a joke,
and invited the robber to pull np his chair
and take dinner. He was soon undeceived,
however; the entire family were taken up
stairs and locked in a single room, and as
sured If they made any outcry that they
would all be murdered. The house was
then looted, over nine thousand dollars In
cash, jewels, and plato were secured, and
the robbers got safely off with their boo'y.
The gang terrorized the towns and villages
along (he Hudson River for over a year,
and were finally captured at a low drinking
saloon on the coiner ot Canal and Wash'
Ington streets, and were sent to Sing Sing
for a term of twenty years. Brady got out
a short time ago and returned at once to
the low haunts of vice, but he was
marked man, so brutal that even brutes
like himself feared him; he took to drink,
and at last died in the gutter, with the cold
wet paving stones for a pillow. His body
was taken to the morgue, and from thence
to potter's field, and thus In the lowest deg
radation and misery c ids the life of one
who lived by preying on his Mbw r:ei
who reveled in Ill-gotten gov rid dl"4 i!
death ot an outcast.
Can any good come out of Nazarethv
Oh, yes. Good did come out of Nazareth
almost nineteen hundred years ago, and In
this modern Nazareth the wheat frequently
overtops the tares. I haye not always been
oyer complimentary in my notices of the
Salvation Army; many of the army's
methods jarred harshly on all my precon
ceived ideas ot salvation Perhaps it mav
be that I am not a proper judge of the
most effectual methods of salvation. After
all it makes little difference how men are
saved, so they are aayed. The eloquence
of Paul that startled the echoes of Mar's
Hill might have passed as the idle wind by
the Ignorant rabble, who would have been
moved to frenzy by the rude appeals of
Jnhn alllnf alnnam ti rnnn ti a, li-
passes of the Jordan.
Ic all history there Is nothing more path
etic in the records of evangelization than
the tale told of thrse Salyatlon lassies
whose mission was in one ot the lowest
slums ot New York. The neighborhood
chosen for their work Is almost unknown
to the priest and the levlt. Here, years
ago, was the dance house of John Allen,
known far and near as the wickedest man
In New York, and thereafter on its ruins
flourished Jerry UcAuIey's Jtflssion, which
eventually moved away to the hotbeds of
sin on Sixth Avenue, where poor Jerry Hc
Aujey died. The stretts swarm with river
pirates, sneak thieves, rum-soaked drunk
ards and battered harlots, who avoid the
light of day. Pass along most ot these
streets In the daytime, and If It were not
for the dirty children playing on the side
walk, you might Imagine the neighborhood
was depopulated; but by ten o'clock at
night all la changed. The streets awarra
with busy life, the low drinking dens where
whiskey Is sold from barrels by the tin cup
ful, are crowded with eager customers, and
by twelve o'clock pandemonium, reigns.
The policeman takes a stronger grip of his
long nlght-stlckas he pasrols his dangerous
beat, and breathes snore freely as the relief
marches up to tell him that his perilous
vigil is oyer. Street fights, drunken brawls,
cries of "Murder I Police 1" obscene songs
and shouts t drunken rojittrers make
night hideous, and the morning light comes
creeping In before the riot ceases.
It was here that three young girls hired
s room and started in on their work of
evangelization. The dress of the Salvation
Army was cast aside, and the rough gar
ments of I heir Immediate neighbors donned
for the occasion. The furniture of their
rooms was as scant and poor as the poorest
among them; the only difference being that
while the rooms ot the other tenants were
pictures of squalid wretchedness and dirt,
the rooms ot these poor girls was as clean
as a new pin. The ordinary city mission
ary had left them tracts, telling them what
wicked sinners thay were, and Inviting
them to be good, as he was. These poor
itt'ls said never a word about religion, but
they found out if any poor woman had a
sick baby, or if they needed their children
oared for when mother was out; or If some
poor womon was sick and could not do her
washing, one ef the girls would do it for
her and not even take '"thank yon" for
pay. They scrubbed out their dirty rooms,
they put things to rights, and taught them
how to make nice little dishes out of the
simplest food; they mended their clothes,
nursed the sick, and In a hundred ways
made themselves so useful that it was not
long till their wicked neighbors, even the
worst of them, looked on them with res
pect and reverence. If one of tho women
whose children they had been caring for
came In reeling drunk did they reproach
her? oh. no; they helped her to a scat,
made her a cup of nice fresh tea, and spoke
kind and cheerful words till the drunkard
stink into a drowsy sleep to dream that the
had been attended to by angels . Here was
practical Christianity earned out with a
devotion and self-sacrifice almost unex
ampled in history. If ho were these humble
disciples who went down among the sin-
scarred denizens ot the slums to proclaim
the new evangel, and what was to be their
reward? In book learning they were as
imurant as it Is possible for humanity to
be, but behind their lgnoranco was an In-
snlratton which clearly interpreted the
promises of the Master, and which pens
trated the yell of the future with the vision
of a prophet. The work of these three
poor girls has told In quarters from which
the most enthusiastic missionary shrank
aghast. Here Is Indeed a work fer the Sal
vation Army, and that they may succeed
In occupying this unpromising field, is the
prayer of every one who wishes well of his
ktnd. How far apart are the roads of these
two workersil Mil they ever meet? On the
Fifth Avenue Is Dr. John Hall's magnlfi
cent church. It Is In the most aristocratic
quarter of the town. Outside and inside
everything tells of opulence and Christian
respectability. Soft light filters In through
the beautiful windows, trained voice fill
the air with sweetest melody, skillful fin
gers control the great organ, whose grand
diapason makes the vast building pulsate
and tremble with heavenly song, soft hang
ings from the Persian looms keep the
drafts ot the opening doors from disturb
ing the comfort of the opuleat worship
pers, and with the first note that announ
ces the commencement ot the serylco, the
doors are closed and no one Is permitted to
enter or depart. The pews are luxurious
divans where wealth enjoys Its ease and
religion, and the foot falls upon the carpet
in.the aisles Hko treading on a fleece of
elder down. Yet Mo'ly and Jesse and
Eliza, In the vile slums of Cherry and
Water streets, are serving the same .Master
as Docter Hall; perhaps when the hour
comes for distributing the rewards the dif
ference may not be so great.
Between East Broadway, the Bowery,
and Grand street is a portion of the city
inhabited almost exclusively by Polish.
Hungarian aud Russian Jew. Every lions
is a vast hive, aad the entire neighborhood
has an unkempt, unsavory appearance, pe
culiar to the quarters where these peopl
dwell. Children, dirty and ragged, throng
the tenements ana swarm upon, the side
walks. One peculiarity ot this neighbor
hood Is that there appear to be very few
Idlers. Every one seems to have something
to do, and to be in a hurry to do it. From
the open windows on every band may be
beard the whirr of the sowing machine
early and late, for most of these people are
engaged' In the manufacture of clothing,
skirts or underwear for women. The men
and womcu work; the little children have
to take care of themselves. -
Dr. Brockholst Morgan, of St. Mark'
Episcopal church, saw here an excellent
opening for missionary effort, and acting
on the Impulse he hired abasement and in
vited the children In, It costs about five or
six thousand dollars apiece to convert Jews
In Jerusalem, and" here on the streets of
New Yprk they could ba had by hundreds
for asking. It was not long till a pious
Jewish Rabbi scented the danger afar off,
and he went for Doctoi Morgan for trying
to convert to Christianity his tender little
Jewish lambs, asserting that it was an out
rage that this dangerous missionary should
enter like a wolf ibe Jewish fold. The
Rabbi threatened dire vengeance, but the
parents of the children don't agree with
the Rabbi, and the result has been that the
school Is crowded with Jewish children
and wonderful to relate they had a Christ
mas tree and liked It. Jiany orthodox Jews
are thoroughly aroused, and there Is no
doubt but schools will be provided for the
children, and such provision made for tbelr
instruction as shall render the present
school of Doctor Morgan and his mission
arles unnecessary.
You often hear of money being picked
up lc the streets', but the city has had
streak of luck, such as does not often fall
to Its share. It costs us oyer a million to
clean our streets. The dirt is gathered by
the street cleaning department, and
dnmped into large seows at the river side,
Is then towed out to sea, and there dumped
Into the ocean. A few years ago an army
of Italians used to swarm about these
scows picking up refuse rags, bones, and
whatever else they could find, Then an
enterprising Italian made the city an offer
of seven hundred dollar for the exclusive
privilege of overhauling the street sweep
ing and ashes, HI first year made him
man of Independent fortuae. Then some
ot hla countrymen who had discovered his
secret bid against him when the city put
up the contract the following year, and the
city realized five thousand dollars. Next
year another bid ten thousand. Last year
it rose to eighty thousand dollars, and for
1890 the city secures elghty-flve thousand
dollars, and the contractor has to employ
hundred man at a dollar a day to pick out
the refuse that he wants to save.
I ain.njoura truly,
BROADBRIM,
MASONRY ABOUND THE WORLD
Adventurous Tlslts to Temples Queer
Scenes In the Orient- Beautiful
Structures In Attn and Africa,
Kellar, the Magician.
Next year I ahall have been a Master
Mason fer fifteen years, and during that
time I have traveled every continent on the
globe, and I haye visited Masonic lodges
nearly every civilized country. I was made
Mason in May, 18TB, In Peletas, Brazil.
I took my first three degrees in a lodge
room that bad frequently been honored by
the presence of the deposed Emperor Dom
Pedro, who was one time an active mem
ber of Scottish Rite body. The Maaonic
temple was a plain, aubstantlal building,
erected solely for the purpose that it was
used for, and stood in the yery centre of tb
town. It was plainly arranged and econ
omically furnished. It not only served as
the meeting place of the Bl ue Lodge, but Jt
likewise sheltered the Scottish Rite bodies,
which are much stronger In Brazil than
any other of the higher Masonic bodies.
Although for many yean the Roman Cath
ollc church of Brazil has been bitterly op?
posed to Masonry I think that, In propor
tion te lb siuabarpf her Inhabitant,
Brazil hat mote Maions than anv other I
country In the world.
After leaving Brazil and South America,
turned my face toward the Bast, and for
several years after that llBaelllyed In the
Orient studying Malonry ajjg practising
conjuring', both to my entire personal and
financial satisfaction. While I was In Port
Louis, on the Island of Mauritius, of the
South African coast, I received the degrees
of Mark and Most Excellent Master, and
the Royal Arch in Friendship Lodge. I
completed my chapter degrees in Keystone
Lodge, Shanghai, China. This Lodge Is
under obedience to the Grand Orient of the
United States, and it Is competed of some
ot the brightest men In China. While I
was In Shanghai I frequently attended a
natlye Lodge with an unpronouncable
name, the translation of which was "The
Rising Sun." This was presided oyer by a
Mandatln ot one ef the highest ranks.
The senior deacon was a prince, and the
way the work was dono would be a revela
tion to a IKestern Mason. Of course the
Chinese language was spoken, but the
work Is almost Identical the world over and
I had no difficulty lu following It, I haye
seldom seen work that was any smoother
or more impressive. It was in this Lodge
that I met Kwong Li Mel, the spendthrift
son of a rich banker, of whom I shall have
more to say before I have finished this ar
ticle. A TEUTLB Or WHITE 1IABBLE.
In 1830 I took my Scottish Rite degrees
In the Triple Esperance Lodge In Fort
Louts, Mauritius. This Is one of the largest
and oldest lodges in the world. It cele
brated Its centennial while I was there. Its
building Is one of the finest temples In the
fraternity. It is constructed of white
marble, only on story high, and stands In
the centre of a block.
Its roof covers four acres of land, and It
contain rooms enough to allow every de
gree In Masonry to be conferred the same
night, In a different room. The banquet
lng ball I as largo as the dining room of
the Fifth Avenue Hotel. The grounds
surrounding the temple are beautifully laid
out, and are 1 shut in from the public gaze
by a stone wall ten feet high. The lodge
contatnt 800 active members and quite as
many en conge.
Masonry Is prohibited In the Pbllllplno
Islands, and therefore all lodge meetings
are held In secret. I once attended a meet
ing in the dining room of Mr. Barnard, a
wealthy carriage manufacturer, whose
bouse is directly opposite the Hotel Bala
In Manila, as well as In China, there are
many natlye ledges, but the ones I have es
pecially alluded to are English, although
many natives are enrolled as members.
On one of my first visits to South Africa
I accompanied a party ot English officers
on a hunting expedition. We were on the
plains at the base of the hills and were hav
ing great sport. We had about a dozeD
white men In the part and not less than
thirty natives to drive the wagons, take
care ot the horses and' beat up the game,
We had passed a number of springboks and
antelopes; and Lletenant Miles, who was
my hunting mate, and I bad bagged our
share. Among the natives I noticed one
man whom I thought I recogutzed. He
had charge of the teamsters and appeared
to be a fellow ot more than ordinary intel
ligence. When wo broke camp the next
morning I had a little difficulty with one
of the men whose duty it was to look after
my horse. But when we had monnted and
started out for the day's sport I forgot all
about the occurrence. It appears, however,
that the native bad a better memory,
think that It was the third or fourth night
after Ibis that I started out on a little tour
of exploration. It was a glorious night
and the moon made the landscape as light
as day. I bad hardly goae a quarter of
mile when I felt a sharp blow on the head
The next moment I was unconscious,
When I recovered my senses, I found the
foreman kneeling oyer ue rubbing my
hands.
"What's the matter?" I gasped. "What
has happened?"
"It la lucky for you I was near you,'
mysteriously replied the negro, in excellent
English. A few minutes later he explained
to me that he had beard the hostler I had
quarreled with make threats against my
lite and he bad consequently kept a clese
watch upon him. He saw him follow me
thla night, and, therefore, joined in the
chase, Before he could reach me, though
he saw the fellow kit me on tb back of the
haad with a club- He fired a (hot from his
revolver and hurried to my side, but the
would-be assassin had escaped. On our
way back to camp I asked him why he had
taken such an Interest in me. In reply he
held out his hand, and to my amazement,
gave me the grip of a Master 3ason. He
was a member ot the natlye lodge In Gra
bamstown, and knew me to be a member
of the craft by the gold watch charm I al
ways wear.
I have ylslted Parsee Lodges In Bombay,
Persian Lodges In Malaga and Bagdad,
English Lodges lu Great Britain, Frencn
Lodges In France, native Lodge In Mex
ico, Dutch Lodges In Java, Spanish Lodges
In Cuba and South America. I haye seen
the work in Arabia, Egypt, Australia and
South Africa, and It is needless to say I am
acquainted with the lodge rooms ot the
United Stat. I mention the rangeof my
experience to show you that I am propared
to apeak authoritatively upon the subject,
and when I say that the three finest Ma
sonic temples In the world, according to
my judgment, are in Philadelphia, Fa.,
Port Louis, Mauritius, and Cape Town,
South Africa, I expect thla state jaent to
have some weight.
I haye already described to you the Port
Louis Temple. The one In Cape Town
rivals It In beauty, and in certain- partic
ulars it excels. It la the property of Krap
Lodge. It la situated in th cantr of a
large grove of oak trees, and ita varloua
chambers are fitted out for tbelr work In
the most elaborate manner Imaginable.
For Instance the blue lodes rooms haye sub
terranean apartments, with vaults, pas
sages and tunnels, and the work is given
more Impressively than I have ever seen
elsewhere In the world. The Initiations
are conducted yery much as I Imagine the
ancient rites ot the Egyptian priests to have
ben.
Masonry Is essentially the same the
world over, but Its ceremonies areasyarled
In form as tbe flowers of the field. The
work In American and English Lodges Is
simple, and depends more upon that fact
for Its (repressiveness, while the work In
Latin Lodges, in the tropics, In South
America and in the Orient, is very dram
atic, and tbe poor searcher after light may
forget bis own name, the names ot bis
children, and even tbe face of his wife's
mother, bnt hta Initiation never.
In 1885, when I was in China, I went
from Hong Kone to Singapore, about 1,600
miles down'tbe South China sea. My as
sistant and myself comprised tbe entire
party. Itwaa only a four data' trip, but
to me It waa eaa ef the moat eventful trips
of my life In certain respects. We had not
bean out of tha port twenty-four houra
whan I missed all my money, which I kept
In a wallet la toy inside waistcoat pocket,
my watch, chain and charm, but I lost
stvtralof ay tuoit yasjl "ropertlea."
Thty had been utolen while I wa asleefk
I wat billed to glvo a performance in 8lng
apoie the evening of my arrival, and I.
1 be Impossible for me to do so with
out the lost utensils of my craft. I waa
almost in despair, l aid not know wnat to
do. I laid my case before tbe captain, but
he was aa powerless as I. Our crew con
sisted of thirty Europeans and about a
hundred Chinamen, and it was highly prob
able that one of the latter was my eyll
genius. The third mate waa a Chinaman
and the captain put the case in his hands.
The amp was aearcneu as wen as could ue
under the circumstances, and considering
the fact that my promised reward for tbe
recovery oi my property was not Dacited
up by any ready cash the search was not
characterized by anything remarkablo in
tbe line of zeal.
When we reached Singapore I was liter
ally In despair. There were few tricks that
I could perform without my working tools,
and these few tricks were bvni means new
to the Singapore public You can, there
fore, easily Imagine that when I reached
my hotel It as not In an enviable frame of
mind. I dined that evening with my as
sistant In mv room. We had lust half fin
ished our meal when tbe servant camerinto
the room and said a man we.nted to speak
to me alone. I sent my assistant out and
waited for my visitor to come. In a mo
ment he was before me. He was a stout.
welt dressed Chinaman. If I bad ever seen
bim before I did not remember the (act.
"Your name Is Klellar?" he asked.
I said 1'. was.
"You lost your money, bloxe, lings,
watch, eh?"
I began to be interested.
"Can you tell me where they are?"
said.
"I can," answered the heathen.
"Where are they?"
Here."
And from under bis iacket he drew out
me missing articles. Jtyerymmg was mere,
ana even tne watch had been wound up.
Mv new acquaintance was. the. steward of
tbe steamer, and he told me that he dls-
coverea me LneiL ana recovnrea-inuuiuu-
der. I immediately offered him all the
money In my wallet, but judge of my as
tonishment when he refused tbe. re ward.
'De vou remember TIsIntr Sun .Lodge,
Shanghai?" he asked. "You remember
Kwong Lt Met?" He held out his hand
and gave me the Master Mason's grip,
wen, mat's me."
