NkW Yoiik, July ‘J. The trial of Jacob
Hliurp was in miiiih I'csjns'ts the most notahle
overbold m New Yolk. In tho rear of the
old City Hall, which hoglnx to look worn
ami weather Isiaten, standstill' white stone
i sin it lioiihc, divideil into many rooms for
the soyoral courts. An old apple woman
and a vender of coffee and lemonade ply
their trade in the rotunda. A room, not
over sixty feet square, on the second floor
of the building, Is designated by a Hina 11
black mid gold sign as the Court of Oyer
and Terminer, old Norman Batin words
which mean "to hear and determine.”
Across its entrance a heavy pole, upon
which leans a large court attendant,
obstructs the way. A great crowd clamor
for admittance nt. nil important trials, hut
the attendant admits only a limited imnilx-r
Into the small, stuffy court room. When
lie deigns to admit a person he raises the
pole a little way ami the person stoops
down and glides under the olist,ruction. 'I he
room, with its black walnut, wainscoting
and high canopy under which the .bulge
sits, looks cramped and stuffy. Its most
conspicuous l'<oiluri' is a big thermometer on
the western wall. It. is one of the many
thei'iiniiiii'ters fur which the Tweed Bing
made the city of New York nay
juKKi apiece. It is worth about 910.
Tlie whole court house Is stocked with
relies of the Twixxl days. When tho hour
for (snivelling tna court arrives a court
attendant hammers on the black walnut
wainscoting with his fist. Another court
oil leer catches his cue and pounds the
wainscoting mi Ills title of the room. They
an' announcing that t he Judge is coming.
Judge Barrett, who has written a play
and made himself famous in the boodle
trials, is a man of tmxlituu stature with a
full black heard, highly arched eyebrows
ami the face of a nianot' temperate habits,
comes into courtwith n rapid stride. The
clerks and attendants rise and remain stand
ing miiil lie is senUxl, mid then lie hows to
the counsel on both sidis, after which the
court crier, who never varies the intonat ion
of Ills voice, requests every one lull ing busi
ness with the l ourt-of Oyer and Terminer
to draw near mid lie hoard. The strict
fornialitins of tho court me never varied,
and at the adjournment of the court every
one is expected to remain seated until the
jury has withdrawn. One of the Blimp
Jurymen lireamo so far imbued with a sense
iif the etiquette of tlie court that one even
ing at adjournment when the audience
anise to go out. before the jury hud departed,
t he jury limn sternly rapped on the end of
the liox as a signal lor the people to remain
m ated until the Jury were gone. Six e.x
(x'usive lawyers (Hiring the five weeks and
more of the trial sat at a table about their
client . The aggregate dully expense to the
defendant ef all Hus array of legal talent
averaged #5OO ]s>r day, to sav nothing ef
retainer fix's, which averaged from s‘>oo to
$lO,OOO. Besides this was file expense entailed
for agents and private detectives in the
interest of Mr. Sharp. Added to this was
the cost of employing stenographers liy the
defendant , w ho had in Ins service one of the
most cx|x'rt shorthand writers in the Unitixl
States, a short thick set man, who took tho
75,000 words of evidence a day with np
imrontlv less exertion ttian nnylxxiy em
ployed In t lie case. The court 's stenographer,
who is said to have no stqx'rior in America,
has 1 H’cn reporting trials in the same
tribunal for more than twenty yours. He
wrote the record ef t he Tweed trial, and
treasures among his relies a friendly ix>iu
municat ion received from Twixxl during the
pn'gross of the t rial, These stenographers
t'M'ti daily notes which it would have
required one man twenty five hours to
write out in long hand. They dictated their
notes for nlxmt two hours to other stone
graphers for more di'lilx'rate transcription,
and the iviiuiinder of the day's ixxx'nl was
dictated to export liely typewriters. It t<*>k
until" or !i o’lltx'k in the morning to finish
the work, and the stenographer w as obliged
to Ik' in >• >urt at ihitO o'clock. None but a
man imuxxl to this kind of work could have
endured this strain for more than five weeks,
even at the lilx'inl cxjnqx'iisatioii of s•'■ per
hour w liii'h Sharp is said to have paid his
private stenographer. The aggregate ex
|xuim' of his trial to tlie defendant was more
than 950,01)0.
The most striking character of the force
for tlie defense was tlie veteran Judge Ful
lertoii, famous from his connection with tile
Beecher and Twixxl trials. He wears his
moustache short croptxxi, liis rather full faix>
is slightly (lusluxi and liis kixm gray eyes
glint, through a j>air of old fashioned
sixx'tacles as no gazes at his opponent with
a stern hxik. Tlie defendant himself
presented a sixx'taole of ttie most abject win'
ever scon in a New York court room. When
the case had assumed its darkest prospect
his wonderful w ifi power that liad euahled
liim to keep up during previous vicisMtudes
Ix'gan to givi' way. ilc lias long Ixx-n a
victim of kidney trouble, and when he
began to succumb to the strain of the trial

giving his face a ghastly appearance; his]
eyes at times clonxi drearily and his head i

tion tVcMMonnlly lie would start up with
a startled Uxjkand Ins little gray eyes would j
wander to the jurv box with a Ux'k of
anxious inquiry. \t every moment during
the long trial Sharp’s grandson, a mere .
vx'utli with a handsome faro, sat at ins
grand-ire's elbow The patient and (xmstant
devotion of tins lad was one f tlie features
of ihegreat trial, anil also the krou rontcnipt
with which he evixi the thnx' big Deputy

WOMKN OK NKW VOItK.
Thfl lies told ill >t nit. the ladles of New York
arc at. thin's appalling. In variety, struc
tural strength, Intensity of Imagination and
alsrilulc ami unremitting wickedness they
are itnappronchable. It is, however, ouri
oml v enough an eusy matter to see why the
lies are told.. The difficulty of ilcti cting the
dlff’ereni’e liet.wecn n lady Hilda woman who
is not akuly in New York is at times lieyond
all Is'lief. An adventuress whoops tilings
up and raises the deuce and she appeal's in
public under the guise of “a noted New
York Indy” within a week. It duos not seem
to strike the casual observer of New York
life Hint a lady here ls no different from a
Indy elsewhere. It il not the custom among
women of gissl bmxling, refinement urid
high social position to get drunk In public
places, drive hacks ut. midnight up Broad
way, smoke opium with buil actors in
Bowery "Joints, swim in nubile pluora olwl
in bathing suits that wonh! start le the Venus
<ln Milo, gamble nt. eraek duliH, and sit on
the shoulders of their friends at the races
Ninoking cigarettes and making more or Icxn
lilsrnl displays of their hosiery. It may
emine a wove of startled resentment and
disUilief hi sweep over the country on leurn
iug that Now York kulies do not do these
tilings, lint the truth eat mot be gainsaid. 1
have rend numerous lind eloquent articles
about the gambling elulisdovofed to women
in New York. Alluring and spectacular
pictures are drawn by the vivid pens of
clever writers picturing magnificently up
pointed houses fumislwu in the most lavish
muiuier and devoted entirely to the gam
bling proclivities of the inetnfsTHof the club.
There are poker rooms, roulette tables,
baccarat, faro layouts anil soon. The Presi
dent of the club is usually described us a
woman of commanding and handsome pH's
cnee with gray hair and affable manners.
The waiters are tidy and well-built young
women in club uniform, whocarry seething
glasses of olmiiipngno around constantly on
trays. The best society women of New
York are said to drive up to these places,
gamble, drink, smoke cigarettes, etc. After
they have lost a given amount of money—
usually placed at a largo and satisfactory
figure they red out into the nir again and
return to home and society. All of
which is the purest balderdash and rot. I
do not olniin to know Nov York much bet
tor than uny other man, but I have lived
here all my life, and 1 have not restricted
myself entirely to church circles. Besides,
1 have it ou the authority of men who arc
indubitably well informed on such matters
that there is not a woman's gambling house
in Now York outside of tna queer little
Japanese and Italian dens where ragpickers’
lings occasionally risk a few pennies on the
cast of diet'. Much the same order of men
dacity tloats uliout concerning the opium
“joints’’ of New York. My imagination
1 sx'iunc so tired liy the voluptuous, ingenious
anil taking pictures of New York society
women, in their luxuriant opium joints,
that I made u tour of all the opium places
in New York once, accompanied by a cele
brated authority on the opium habit, and a
man who had a large practice among slaves
of the drug, named Dr. (Jarrish. We had one
of the shrewdest detectives from the central
office with us. Whatniy two companions <lid
not know about the opium habit in New York
was not worth knowing. We s|ient three
nights on the tour. It was a continual sui -
cession of revoltingpictures, a nightmare of
stilling odors, and an unbroken senes of
ghastly, unpleasant pictures. It was an ex
perienee 1 snail never forget, for it h:ul in it
more squalor, misery and lieastliness than I
over expect to set' again. We searched in
vain for the magnificent "dives” upholster
ed with Oriental inugnitUvnee, furnished
with superb Ohincse divans, lighted bv
grotesque and beautiful lamps, made soft
and noiseless by rich rugs and managed by
soft-footed and imam eyed Celestials, about
which so much Ims btxii written, and where
it is said the society indies of New York
give themselves over to the fascinations of
the aw ful drug. The most pretentious place
tlmt I saw during the tour was in the sub
cellar of a Sixth avenue house. The floor
was carpeted and that ls why it stood out
in such striking magnificence and splendor,
as eoinparixl with the other places. The
couchivs were rough wooden bunks, the iv.il
ing low, hegrimeo and sooty and ttie lack of
cleanliness something awful. There wore
seven or eight women lying around on ttie
bunks when we arrived and four or five
men wore interspersed promiscuously among
them. It was alx'tit 1 o’clock in the morn
ing. A single light burned in the centre of
tin' square room and the women lay in the
bunks around the four siiU>s. All of them
had their gowns loosened at the thnait, and
thev lay in position-.of absolutelanguor and
indifference. Some liad rolled over on their
1 >aeks, some lay heavily on their faces and
others were twisted up awkwardly in cor
ners Only two of them were wliat might
lie called' decently clash They wore the
tlash jewelry and gaudy clothes of women
of the town. It was said that this place
liad the ta<st class of smokers of and in Now
Yi'rk, atal we wont liack in the afternoon —
the detective and 1 -to irnve a look nt more
of them We found women who were K-tter
dressed than the onw wc saw that night,
and among them was a rather well-known
aettvss and two women who drive magnifi
cent horses and make a great show about
town. They were all half deadened by the
drug, and as the Chinaman took his light
around and flushed it in their fa x-s a few of
them ojH'ned their eyes. Ho evidently con
sidered them great swells, and even the de
tective was more or lies impressed by the
gorgeon* nttirx' of several of the devotees of
the habit, but it needed only a glance to
show that not a woman among them had the
faintest right to the title lady nor the least
claim to respectability.
The morphine clul Uonrishol for a time
in the newspapers. I not only never saw
one nor heatxl of the fact of their existence
in New York, but 1 fail to see any partic
ular reason whv there should be a morphine
club iu New York. The stories that are
told about tins*' magnificent place* where
women call several times a day to have mor
phine administered to them by expert
physicians have less reosou for existinnv in
the uewspa|x'fs thm. half the other abaurd
stories hr which the names of New York
women nave been Iraggot into print iunl
into the nmd at the same time. Then' an'
undoubtedly many n-oiueu—and men, toe,
for that matter who indulge in morphine.
Ne man of the w.-rid is ignorant of the, ause
of much of the vivacity and life that ap
jx-nrs spMmodfc'aUv in the eye* of men a:>i
women whose vitality has txx'ii sapped by
many indulgences, and who brighten uj>
atvl sink into mekmcholy again at <h"rt aad
abrupt intervals There is not half as much
mystery ntx'ut this sort Of tiling as the
women themselves perhaps imagine. But
when it tames to regularly appointed
I'alao's whvw women go to take
morphine, it is pushing the limit a little
tix> far.

LKVr BACON'S SHORTAGE.
EVIDENCE THAT THE O. O. P. HAD
A HAND IN HIS RUIN.
A Belief That Ho Had to Carry a Con
eidemble Sum of Money That Was
Improperly Appropriated to Politi
cal Purposes $33,000 the Aggre
gate of the Discrepancy.
Washington, July SJ.—The Commissioner
of Patents Unlay, with the approval of the
Secretary of the Interior, furnished for
publication a statement upon the subject of
the deficiency in the accounts of the late
Lovl llacon, financial clerk of the Patent
Office. It appears from this statement that
no searching investigation of Mr. Bacons
accounts lias been made. A committee was
appointed, however, to ascertain in a gen
eral way what seemed to lie the condition of
his accounts.
$33,000 shout.
The report of this committee shows that
there is an apparent shortage of about
$33,000, about ¥4,300 of which was in the
attorney’s deposit funds, leaving an appar
ent deficit of about $28,500 in nis account
with tlie government, against which were
found duo bills from employes and others,
dishonored drafts and checks, anil miscella
neous memoranda of indebtedness aggre
gating about $17,000, which leaves wholly
unaccounted for of government funds about
$11,600. Of the items of indebtedness men
tioned all except probably $1,500 arc
thought to bo collectible.
BONDED FOR SIO,OOO.
Mr. Bacon’s bond was for SIO,OOO. anil
this amount deducted from the probable de
ficiency will leave a loss of from $2,000 to
$3,000 to be borne by the government. The
statement says: “There is some evidence in
the office to indicate that Mr. Bacon may
have been compelled to carry a considerable
sum of money that was improperly impro
priated to political purposes in IHSO. There
was found in his safe the following memo
randum in the handwriting of Mr. Bacon:
‘Amount paid by the Interior Department
to the Congressional committee for the cam
paign of 1880, $18,04(1; by the Patent Office,
SI4,!KiO; balance, $11,(186.’”
A COINCIDENCE.
In the register of the Interior Department
for the year 1880, in which this memoran
dum was found, there unp entered up state
ments against n largo number of employes
in the patent office, aggregating $4,3*50. Cor
responding with the sum deducted from
$1(1,046 in the memorandum, it will lie no
ticed that the $11,686 balance paid by the
Interior Department, after deducting wluit
appeared to have been recovered by assess
ments in sin the Patent Office, corresponds
within a few dollars with the amount unac
counted for in Mr. Bacon’s account as above
stated.”

A wealthy lady of Chicago lias offered at the

depict the Chicago girt as she is. not as she is

It is stated tha’ ihe Chicago girl in modem fiction

she is, in fact, refined, cultured, well mannered,

MARRIAGES.
ONANN PUDER—Married, at the Evangeli

Rev. I)r. W. S. Bowman, Mr W. D. Gxann to
Miss Nei.i.ie E. Pcder, both of Savannah. Ga.
IN MEMOKIAM.
CREEKMAN- Another loved one has passed
away, another home is desolate. And yet, wire
should we murmur or rebel. God, in his infi
nite wisdom, knows liest. and as Christians we
should meekly bow in submission to His divine
will.
Mon Fannie Oreekman, the beloved wife of
J. W. Creekman, was born at Beaufort, 8. C.,
August B<itb. 1854, and died at Savannah, Ga.,
June Ist, 18*7, in the Christian's hope of a glo
rious Immortality, and is now numbered among
the blessed ia glory everlasting.
Tile deceased was noted for her kindness of
heart anil amiability of character. Through all
the trials and vicissitudes of life she bore herself
with true womanly dignity, and won many
friends by her innate nobility. Asa wife she
was kind mid affectionate, never more pleased
than when she could promote her husband's
happiness or advance hfa interests, and always
striving to anticipate his wants. For a long
number of years she had cared for and been the
principal support of a widowed mother, to
whom she was always dutiful and loving. She
leaves one child, a (iuughter ten years of age, to
whom siie was deeply attached. Her death
leaves an aching void in the hearts of her
kindred and friends, and recollections of her
many virtues will be forever cherished by them.
'Tis hard to break the tender chord
When love has bound the heart;
’Tis hard, so hard, to speak the word
We must forever part.
Darling loved one we must lay her
In the quiet grave's embrace,
But thy memory will be cherished
“ ’Till we see thy heavenly face.”
