Brother. Gardner on Bringing Up Boys
Detroit Free Press.

DetrOlt free IreSS.
"If had boy to bring up 1 wouldn't
bring him up too SOFTLY" began Bro.
Gardner, as Samuel Shin finally quit pO-
king the ire. "Ebery day of my life
meet men who were brought up too
softly. As boys dty were kissed an
petted an shufied an stuffed wild sweet
cake an cried ober. As young men dey
had muffin to do but spend money, dress
like monkeys, loaf on the streets an
look down on honest labor. As men dey
am failure. People who doan' hate
'em an avoid ,em feel to pity EN-, AN dat's
just as bad. When see a man whom
eberybody dislikes l realize dat he was
brung up on de goody-good plan as
boy.
"If had a boy I'd rub him agin de
world. Id put responsibility on his
shoulders. If he got sugar he'd airn it.
If he got time for loafin' it would be on
ly arter his work was done. If he was
ugly or obstinate I'd tan it outen him
instead of buyin' him OF. If you want
to make selfish man humOr de whims
of boy. If you want to make cow
ard forbid your boy to defend his rights.
I'd teach my boy dat all boys had rights,
an dat while he had no business to
trample on de rights of odder boys, no
boys had de privilege Of takin' him by
de nose Las night an old man hbiR
up my way was turned out doors by his
boy. He has been tryih' de goody-good
plan on dat youth for de las twenty
Vars. an dis am de legitimate result.
He didn't want him to work, kase work
is hard. He didn't want him to dress
plain fur fear people would look down
on him. De boy am to-day lOafer,
neither grateful fur what has bin done
in the pas, nor carin'- -what-happeps in
de fucher. Ten vars ago he was cried
ober, run arter an coaxed an bought
off, an his mudder libed to see him q
loafer an his fadder has foan' migrate"
-Giveadam Jones said he was pleased
to be able to report that the Lime-Kiln
Club and the Concord School of Philoso-
ply were again wOrkin' in loving har-
mony, and that his committee had been
called upon to aid the School in solving
the query: "What are the Thingness Of
Things?" They had long been estrang-
ed because they could not arrive at the
same conclusion on: What Uselessness
is Use?" But animosity had given place
to spirit os forgiveness and the goose
hung high.

A New Cabinet Inevitable.

Among the members of the Cabinet,
with possibly two exceptions, the con-
clusion has been reached that the Presi-
dent should surround himself without
unnecessary delay with ministry of
his own selection. "The position taken
by Mr.. MacVeagh," said prominent
member of the Cabinet, "is concurred
in by all my colleagues now in the city
except one. None of us desire to con-
tinue in our position. We fully appre-
ciate the political attitude of the Presi-
dent. We feel that it is best for us and
for him that we should retire as soon as
he can determine upon our successors.
If we remain we know that there are
many things upon which we could not
agree, and that our retirement would
only be question of time. The minu-
test deviation from the policy marked
out by Gen. Garfeld's administration
would Immediately compel US to resign.
We could not, with self-respect, hold Of
flee another day after a departure from
the policy of our late chief. Gen. Arthur
has been duly informed of this, and from
what l can gather. the Cabinet will be
almost entirely changed at an early day.
|, for one, am determined to withdraw,
and the sooner my successor is selected
the better it will please me.
The President has, of course, been in
formed of the views of the members of
the Cabinet who do not desire to serve
under him, and is isengaged in the delicate
work Of selecting the men who are to
Succeed them in time to send their
names to the Senate at the special ses-
sion which will convene next Monday.
Secretaries Window, Lincoln, Hunt, and
James will leave tomorrow or next day
for weeks trip. Secretaries Lincoln
and Window will go to New England.
Mr. Hunt will make short tour of in
spection among the neighboring navy
yards or something Of the sort, and Mr..
James will visit New York. No Cabi-
net meeting will, therefore,b be held until
their return. Gin. Gazette.

DOCUMENTS OF THE LATE
rREss PRESIDENT.
His Carefully Kept Diaries
Last Entry.

A special dispatch from Washington
says: Marshal Henry tells one or two
very interesting incidents relating to the
life of the late President during the few
days preceding his murder. He said to-
day: -.
Il was out riding with the President
and Harry Garfield on the Wednesday
nightof that week. The President talk
ed about great many things and said
great deal about his wife's recent ILL
ness. Speaking particularly of DR..
BoyntOn's services during the hour of
Mrs. Garfeld's peril, of the Doctors
prompt response when summoned by
telegraph, and of bis untiring efforts
night and day to ameliorate the suffer
ing of the patient, he said, in tone of
voice which l shall never forget, to his
son: Harry, want you to remember
your Uncle Silas as long as you live"
One of the habits of the President for
many years was the writing of a private
diary. and he has left number of vol
nmes of these diaries, which are about
six oreight inches in size. He did most
of the writing in these himself, though
when very busy he dictated the entries
to his secretary. The last entry he made
himself. the night before he was shot.
Under the date of July is written:
Brown returned to-day" and after
few more notes were the last words.
cousin Cordelis died to-day. Retired
at IL o'clock"
twill be remembered that Private
Secretary Brown returned from Europe
the night before the President was shot.
The sCousin Cordelia" spoken of was
Mrs. Arnold. who was fatally injured by
the accident in which the late Presi-
dents uncle, Thomas Garfield, was kill
ed, near Cleveland. The Marshal says
the late President has left several boxes
full of papers and documents, which
will probably be examined some day and
edited for publication.

JOHN w. BoOKwALTER, the Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor of Ohio,
in letter written by him to the Jack
sonville, Ill, Courier, and published
August 10, 1880, declared that he had al
ways been Republican, out that he was
going to vote for Hancock. and gave as
his reason for his action that Garfield
was man "who stands convicted of
bribery and perjury" Will Garfield's
native State choose for its Governor the
man who so foully libeled him?

THE legal authorities of Monmouth
county, N j., have addressed the AttOr.
ney General of the State and the Attor-
ney General Of the United States upon
the propriety of filing accounts before
the grand jury of Monmouth county
against Guiteau for the murder OFPres-
ident Garfield. 1t is held that the waiv-
er of the Coroner's inquest by the State
does not deprive the grand jury of its
power to indict criminal. 1.

Go to the Polls EARLY
Oh Tuesday.

SENATOR LAMAR does not seem to be
sanguine of Bourbon success in Missis-
sippi. He said recently:
ave are pretty well assured of Dem
ocratic success. We are hard at work.
Many of us are worn and fatigued, but
happily l believe the result will be sat
isfaetory one"
The campaign has been quiet there
lately, but it is likely to warm up again
now. 1t is perfectly plain that there
can be Bourbon success only through
false counting, and it is hard to believe
that Mr.. Lamar would consider that
satisfactory.

THE example which Jay Cooke pre-
sents of recovery from bankruptcy to
honorable solvency, after having been
bounded from, wealth to poverty by
heartless and undiscriminating persecu-
ton, is not equaled probably in financial
history. Every lover of integrity and
personal worth will rejoice to know that
the great dispenser of gleenbacks and
salesman of government bonds in the
hour of the nations fiery trial is likely to
pass the evening of his days in affiuenee
in the elegant home he provided in
days of ,affiaence, which was cheerfully
surrendered to satisfy both needy and
rapacions creditors, but is now recover
ed by this recuperated means to the use
of theworthy owner.-lCin. Gaz.

THE ENLARGED MINER.

1t is with a pardonable dagree Of pride the
publishers of the MINER present to its read
ers this morning the largest daily newsl aper
published West of Chicago. 1t has been the
intention of the publishers to enlarge this
Journal on the first Of January next, but the
unprecedented demands made upon It's adj
verifying space and a desire to present to tie
reading public the current news OF the world
in its columns render this step imper2tively
necessary at the present time. This is the
third enlargement of the MINER and we can
assure its friends that l. will not be the last
if the growing business interests Of Butte and
those of the Territory require the still further
expansion Of It's columns. The MEIER will
maintain in the future as it has in the past
the first position in Montana journalism, and
W II ever endeavor, by pursuing an ihtelli-
gent, fearless and independent course in all
matters which affect tie public welfare, to
merit the confidence repossd in it by a gen.
erous public. A complete font of new type

aud as soon as the immense Holiday edition

on the Daily and Weekly. Arrangements
have been completed by which we will be
able to give daily full telegraphic reports. In
addition to these no efforts will be spared to
make the MINER a trst-ciass newspaper in
every respect. We take this occasion TO ex-

A Washington dispatch of the 7th states

The New York Truth speaks of the action
of the Philadelphia Stock Board in striking
from their list a number of swindling mining
schemes. It mentions mines having nothing
but a load of debt and a spavined mule. OF
the management of minNs generally appear
ing on stock boards it says: But the real
management of the mines is not governed by
the bona tide stockholders. The output is
regulated entirely by the varying require
ments OF the stock jobbing gang. who never
dream OF making money by the legitimate
returns OF The mine, but in turning over the
stock. If it were II mere matter OF the pub
lie and the operators iairly dealing with each

The prophesied psstilence from planetary
conjunctions may be thought to be showing
some signs Of fulfllment on account of the
prevalence of small pox throughout the
country at the present time. A Chicago dis
patch of the 9th says: A dispatch from st.
Louis says T. W. Hatch, said to be Secretary
of the California Board of Health, writes to
the st. Louis health commissioner, that the
State has quarantined against Chicago and
that trains on the Central Pacific Railroad
have introduced small psx in i've counties
along the line in California, and in every case
the disease has been traced to Chicago ar
rivals. In St. Louis there is a great deal Of
small pox, twsnty-six cases being reported
from quarantine. In relation to this dipatch
the Chicago authorities say they have no Of
fetal information Of the fact, and are in
clined to doubt it. They say, however, hat
if San Francisco guarantees against Chicago,
then they will quarantine against New York
out of necessity. The small pox is indeed
very prevalent here, and has broken out in
many first-class localities of late. Two thous-
and people were vaccinated at the Health Of
flee to-day, and they were forty-nine deaths
from the horrible disease last week, A small
pox epidemic is feared and there is a genuine
scare.
