Methods of Some Instance Companies Exposing the AVorkiogs of the w JTork Divorce Mill, Etc. (Special Sentinel Letter ) New York, December 22, 18S7. This ought to reach you for publication on Christmas day, and, as you will probably be indulging, with the rest of the edilors throughout Christendom, insolemn and mouldy chestnuts apropos to the occaBiOD, I suppose this will be left over for next day or cut out entirely. Yet, I have sorrethiog new to eay about Christmas at ieaat about Christmas in this town. The celebration of Christmas in this most Cosmopolitan of metropolises, has cjnae to ft most Insincere custom. Churches are decked with evergreens, pulpits are wreathed with flowers, the flocks assemble In their finest sealskins and adorned with their newest bocnets, and the shepherd ialis the most agreeable platitudes to the occupants of brown-stone mansions about ihe bae that was born in a manner. But ihe real demonstration of the bleised day äs In the parsonage, where the multitudinous and meaningless presents are displayed with the names of the givers carelolly attached, and here, more envy and bitterness is engendered by the displays of Ihe rival givers than all the worship and preaching of the next year will allay. As women dress, cot to please the men, but to Spite their own sex, so givers of gifts to pastors have no other object than to outdo others In showing their reverence for the pastor. There Is no sincerity in it for him; no reverence for the Church or its Christ. Little, indeed, but spite and envy. I don't presume that anybody will believe this to be absolutely true. I don't, indeed. believe It myself: but this la precisely the aspect which, of late years, these exhibiions Lave taken on, until one leeis mere la no sincerity and truthfulness left. Fashion has almost eliminated religion as a part of the celebration of Christmas in fie large cities; now it should encourage the custom of gift giving to all but thelittla ones. This particular Christmas has two very curious features in this city the extrava gance of Christmas suppers, and the extra ordinary cheapness of all sorts of articles . suitable for Christmas gifts. It is what might be called a "bargain counter" Christmas. The shop-keepers of Xe w York nave, about once a fortnight, a sale at very reduced rates of such part of their stock as they find is sot demanded, or of which they have a surplus ; and they advertise largely in the Sunday pipers the particu lar class of goods to be found at sacrificial Tat es at the "bargain counter." For some reason or other overstocking, I guess -every big house In the city is selling Christ mas poods at rates so low that almost anybody can afford to give. Wholesale houses that never before interfered with the busi ziess of the retail men, who are their customers, are advertising that they are selling at retail for the holidays only. The consequence is that the shops are filled, xnorning, noon and night, with women und children, bent on buying to give away cheerfully becaase it is cheap. 1 can imagine no other cause for this extraordinary extravagance, except the desire for the display of generosity the inajoritj of givers do not feeL It is not all insincerity I suppose and hope in lact, 1 know it la not; but that lathe aspect it tales on. Talking of the insincerity of things leads me to trll of a scene of Christmas shopping, which illustrates the sbam and shame of this habit of life we lead here. 1 was in Steer's store this morning, and passing lhrongh the thrors between two rows of counters, I was attracted by two groups a nearly opposite counters purchasing tha. is, the two women were purchasing, an the men in each group were paying. Bo d men were prominent, in their prime; bet1 grew rich through politics; both a-e rointed out as models, not only inpersoi hut in morals. One is the head of a military organization of fashionable renown, to say the least; the other a leading, if not a bead-light of the peculiar clubs known BS the Nineteenth Century and the Thirteen Clubs the principles of the first cf which 5s not to believe any thlng.and of the other. Hot to believe that thirteen is an unlucky Dumber. The military man was a high official in Tweed's time, and prospered even more than Tweed did, and more substantially than Tweed did. , The ladies vith him wore sisters, Oae had freen enriched by the love and affection and generorsity of Tweed. The ether has lived in luxury for years on the ordinary military man's wealth. Which was iiis wife? It may seem strange to tell, but seither of them. The ladies with the Intellectual leading light of the Nineteenth Ceatury Club were mother and daughter; und it was difficult to tell to which the gentleman was most polite and attentive. He urged each to buy ad libitum, though they needed little encouragement. It was, to all appearances, as if a generous father sind husband had gone shopping with a devoted wife and beloved child. Bat it Wasn't anything of the sort. The court records in the divorce suit, and more than une police inspector, can tell that the real wife and daughter perished by fire in a flat the intellectual headlight had long before deserted for the constant sotfe'y of both mother and daughter. And can such things be? And at Christmas time too? y?tu, yes, la the Metropolis. 4 A cue recently tried In Bltimore, If the details which the record there shows Should be worked up, would have a very great interest lor that large and enterprising clasa known as Insurance agents. It discloses the methods employed by some Insurance companies, but, let us hops, not fey all. The case was entitled, 4Tbe Fidelity and Casualty Company of Kew York vs. Anthony If. Neale." It was tried in the Superior Court of Baltimore, fcefore Judge Phelps. Mr. Neale was for nearly a year the agent of the company, sind when another agent was appointed INeale owed a balance to the Fidelity and Casualty Company, against which he put a counter claim of $2ö0, for money paid to tone of the officers of the company to secure the appointment as agent. The trial of he cause lasted two days and resulted in a .verdict for Neale, and the company must refund the bribe paid to one of Its officers. 2Iow far does this practice extend? I tever heard of bat one case before, and jthai was in the case of company which disreputably died a short time ago ia Connecticut. The Fidelity and Casualty Com $any is a peculiar institution of this city, iisviDs the only charter ever granted by this State empowering a company to do tour kinds of insurance business. It In Cures the honesty of your employes; pro tecta your plate-glasa from damage; secures you from loss by fire, and promises to pay your heirs in the event of your death by accident. It is the same company which was restrained from doing business In Kansas, which was Sued, f or lxrejuiarity iji reports by ths

Insurance Commissioners of Massachusetts, aid which was only the other day notified

by the Insurance Commissioners of Pennsylvania that its licence for doing its four kinds of business would not be reaeweJ. Tbe Sun hss for reveral days beea expos ing the workings of the divorce mill of the State, and it publishes the names of a number of penens erga?ed in the disrep nteble business of procuring bogus divorces, ß trance to say, many of the exposed persons are women. Many of the lawyers exposed have been notorious for years. The Bun hss not touched the real aore spot the procuring of perfectly lesral divorces by illegal means by lawyers öl reputation. I know of several sucn cases. One of the most remarkable cases was one I have alluded to, where a lawyer brought an action for an actress against her husband, who was his client and fellow direct or in a telegraphic enterprise, and assumed the position of the husband, and took poisession of his houw, wife and all as a fee. I know of another canons cass where a lawyer of repute asked the witty and bril liant Cbas. M. Brooke to asant him as counsel in a divorce suit brought by a lady who kept a large boarding house, agreeing to give Brooke half of any fee he collected. The suit was won and Brooke toll his friend to collect his half of the fee. A good while elapsed; the fee was not forthcoming, and Brooke asked his friend one uy about it. 'You told me to collect it, didn't you?" said P , his friend. "Well, did you?" "Certainly I did, Bame as I collected my half," said P . "Well, pay my half over," suggested Brooke. 'Tay?" exclaimed P . "How can I pay you? You are d d unreasonable, dear boy. H da 1 1 tell you that 1 had to take my half out in board?" -And my half?" demanded Brooke. "Oh! that went for lodging," responded the imperturable P . The Sun has exposed only long and load smelling rottenness. Lt it loo up the Eames of lawyers of repute who figure in divorce suits as referees or attorneys, ana find out the methods by which lawyers and detectives beat the courts and get legal divorces by dishonest subterfuges. Or let it expose tne system by which legal sharks induce Jack, when ashore on a drunk, to lriBg;-ait against steamship companies, libel their vessels just as they are about to tail, and force the companies to psy blackmail and avoid delay. That a a regular practice. Or let it eiposa the methods of lawyers who, being duty rerained, will smuggle articles into newspapers for which they are trusted attorneys. Wm. G. F. Sharks. A KENTUCKY RIOT. Druuien Botibs Try to Drive Out a liarkeeper, and Fail. Cincinnati, December 25 At midnight, kit night, the Sherifl of Kenton County, Kentucky, received a telegram from a tollgate keeper at Erlanger, a village about eight miles from Covington, on the Cincinnati Southern Railroad. The telegram read: "Eblasgeb, Ky., December 21. "Eend officers. Bloody riot. "Jeff Childxbs." The Sheriff and a posse went from Covington. The facts of the case are that in Boone County, Kentucky, prohibition prevails, and Erlanger is a near station for Boone County boys so get liquor. They hare been atbembllng there on Saturday nights and drinking at John Connor's saloon. They disliked Albert Cates, the barkeeper, ard, having given him notice to quit, decided last night to drive him tuzj. TLey got up a fight in the salcon lato at night and Cates put them out. There were sevea in the gang. Cates barred the door. The gang returned and were refused admission. They then smashed in the windows with stones and fired pistols through the doors and Windows. Cates and his two companions returned the fire. The assailants retired to reload, and returned and made a rush at the house. The three men within fired from from windows with deadly effect. The outsiders shot were Borne Bespns, thigh and arm; Frank Ileapus head, very tad; Ben Steven?, face, ball lodged near the ear; John Dorsey, breast. The wounded were taken in wagons to Florecce, Ky, The worst fighting was from about 11:30 until half past 1 o'clock, though shots were fired at the saloon till after 2 o'clock this morning. No arrests have been made. FOUND DEAD IN HIS ROOM. Morey Hale Bartow Dies Suddenly His Relatives Thought to Be In Loganaport. New York, December 23. Morey Hale Bartow was found dead in his room to-day at Ko. 47 Lafayette Place. lie was sixty ytars eld, a bachelor, and lived alone tbere. The greater part of his time was spent In tolitude with his books. He was a member of the American Geographical Society, the New York Historical Society, the Huguenot Society, and was at one time secretary of the Society for the Advancement of Sciences and Arts. He was a descend ant of the family of which Nathan Ilale was a member, and had given much research to the Incidents connected with the execution of the yonng American patriot by the British. Last evening Mr. Bartow seemed much less morose than usual, and told the wife of the janitor of the building in which he lived that he had at last succeeded in making provision for the comfort of his mother, who was eighty-three years old, and his three sisters who lived with her. Though known to many, this is the first reference any one can remember him to have ever made to his immediate family. Eev. Dr. Wendell Prime, editor of the New York Observer, and his associate, Rev. Charles A. Stoddard, called at Mr. Bartow's room, to-day, and searched it, which was almost filled with books, to find some clue to his family connections. Though both had had business relations with tim for years, they knew little about him. On a washstand they found a letter aigced "Mother," Dostmarked "Logansport, Ind." They sent a letter to that place announcing his death. TRAIN ROBBERS FOILED. ThtyFall to Get the Money on a Train Stopped lyThem. Kansas City, December 23. A special from Atoka, Indian Territory, says that a bold attempt at train robbery occurred near that place at a late hour last night. As the southbound Missouri, Kansas and Texas passenger was about to leave, two men boarded tbe engine and compelled the engineer to run to a bridge a abort distance from the station. Upon arriving there the train was stopped. At this point five more men joined the two robbers who had first got on the train. All were armed with Winchesters and revolvers. The express messenger, John Orimshaw, saw them coming and he locked the door, and with the assistance of the baggage master, who happened to be in the car at the time, barricaded the doors and awaited developments. The robbers, thus baflied at the outset, forced the engineer to get chisels and other tools and attempted to break open the door. All assaults on it were in vain, however. The robbers fired several shots through the car, and then went to the mail car, which was also bolted. They contented themselves with firing through it several times, and then went to the Pullman and gave it a similar salute, without attempting to get in. They finally returned to the ex press car where Orimshaw and the baggagemaster still held the fort, and threatened to set It on fire. This failed to frighten the sturdy messenger, and after having detain ed the train thirty minutes without getting a cent, the robbers rather sheepishly rode away. No one was hurt.

"BEN" TITJIt." XAA POT XT IJT TIIE PnVSICAI. CONDITIO Ol TIIK NATION'S AND TIIE RELIEF CT HUMAN SCFFEBIXO OMITTED BY ini AUTHOR. Indiana will be known in time to come as the home of the author of "Ben nur," a recent revelation in literature which blends fact and fiction bo replendently there is nothing to compare with it since "Ivanboe" of Scott. It is a work quite worthy to fill the full measure of an author's ambition. A lifetime of research could hardly develop more impressively and the highest range of thought would enrely not dare to gTasp a subject more profound. Singularly, too, among all its minute generalities, from the dressing of the finger nails to the star guides of the ship, there is not to be found among such customs a word ns to the treatment of disease nor the relief of human suffering. For the good of science some allusion to the primitive modes of healing, and curing pain would have been obvionsly in place. Indeed, a Ecarch int o ths pouch of the camel driver might have found a wad of resinous niixtnrc, compounded from the balsam of the fir and admixed with oil and curative extracts-, which eerved h;.m, when warmed at his lone camp-fiVe, to heal his bruises, eprains and aches. Tracing this down to what sc ience noxr compounds, a missing link might be discovered between the unguents of the dim past and the greatest remedy for pain of the present day. As an illustration of what this latter can accomplish and what its name implies, Mr. E. Moser, Shoala, Ind., May 19, 1837, writes: "About eight years ago I used St. Jacobs Oil for chronic rheumatism in hip and back, and found it cured where all else had failed. Three weeks' use was cnouph. It has never bothered me since." Mr. Horace E. Hopkins, New Albany Ind., June 10, 1887, writes in like manner : "St. Jacobs Oil," he says, "after being applied two years ago for acute pains in the back, one hour after the first application gave me great relief. By morning the pains had entirely gone, and since then hare never had a recurrence of the pain." Mr. J. F. Hone, Bingen, Ind., June, 1S37, in the 6arae vein, writes as follows: "To everybody suffering with rheumatism, bachache, sprains, &c, I am glad to recommend St. Jacobs Oil. There is no remedy that will give relief and reduce pain better than it does. Everybody ought to have it in the, house. I would not be without it. I suffered with all these complaints and it cured me every time, therefore, I gladly recommend it" Mr. D. B. Eberly, Pine Village, Ind., Sept. 7, 1886, writes: "I suffered with rheumatism for five years; my leg was swollen so that I lost the use of it and had to use crutches. I used St. Jacobs Oil, and before I used a bottle I felt the best results. After the second bottle I did away with the crutches and have never had to use them since." Mr. B. iL Ilolman, manager Fort Wavne, Ind., Chtzette, Feb. 26, 18S6, put it thus most felicitously: "I stepped through a cattle guard on the railroad and ßprained my ankle. I invested forty cents in a cane and fifty cents in a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil ; the latter was the best investment The sprain is gone, the cane thrown away and I have half a bottle for the next iprain that comes along." Mr. J. flollstadt, 222 E. Main Street, Madison, Ind, Nov. 1, 1S36. "I cheerfully recommend Et Jacobs Oil. It cured me of rheumatism and innumerable aches and pains." In centuries to come. should a gifted writer write a book like Ben Hur," he cannot fail to take note in treating upon some of the marvels of the present era of what bas wrought 60 magically for the people In producing their happiness and comfort.
