our gallant police force made sortie upon
three lads under fifteen years of age, on Sun
day afternoon, and arrested them for playing
ball, and actually succeeded in getting them
into the station-house and keeping them over
night. Three State officers, three police com
missioners, one chief, one secretary, one clerk,
two captains, four sergeants and fifty-six pa
trolmen against three half-grown boys! 1t was
a great victory, and should make every citizen
and taxpayer of indianapolis an admirer and
supporter of the great Metropolitan police
force. If little boys who play ball on the
common on Sunday afternoon can be safely
put into the station-house, then, indeed, are
our institutions safe.

defeat the Republican nominee This nomi-
nation was indorsed by the Democratic party;
but so deeply grounded was the hostility Of
that party to any man savoring of Republican
responsibility that Horace Greeley was de-
feated as never was man defeated in America.
1t will be so again. Even though the 'fnde-
pendent Republicans go to the extremity of
nominating a ticket, it would only go down in
common ruin with the one that shall be
named at Chicago in July next. The people,

in him and in Republicanism; they nominated
him above all others, and above all others will

IT is not yet plain that young Rhinelander
is as crazy as his fathers family would make
him out. He incurred parental displeasure
and disinheritance by marrying servant Of
the family. Every possible means was en-
ployed to get the young man to disown his
wife and repair the mesalliance by divorce.
He was promised everything that money could
buy, yet still he held firm. Then they took
to threatening him, but could not pre-
vail upon him to leave the woman
he married. In all this Lawyer Drake, his
fathers attorney, acted as go-between, and it
was through him that the desired separation
was urged. Naturally enough, young Rhine
lander grew tired of this, and, at last, think
ing he saw actions on the part of Drake affect
ing the wife's honor, he shot him, but not
fatally. What would be more natural than
for these people, as last, desper-
ate resort, to seek to compromise
the honor of the unfortunate girl, so that
her husband would be compelled to leave
herf And now they charge that he is
insane. Possibly he is; but they declared he
was 'fnsane" when he married the girl, and
threatened him with imprisonment in an in
sane hospital unless he forswore her. Few
will think young Rhinelander insane, but will
praise his constancy to the woman he swore
to love and cherish The carefullest investi
cation of this case should be made to discover
how far his aristocratic family may have at
tempted to dishonor the wife, with the idea of
rescuing the son. from what they consider
social disgrace.

COL NOAH A. PLYMPToN, chairman of the
Democratic State committee of Massachusetts,,
is not the same kind of fool those people are
who delude themselves with the idea that Mr.
Blaine cannot carry the Bay State. Mr..
Plympton says:
'Blaine is stronger in Massachusetts, and,
indeed, in many other States, than the major
ity of the Democrats will acknowledge He
will make hot campaign, and tell you, un-
less we put up an awful strong man, we will
see Blaine as the next President. He will
stand well with the Irish Again, men who
were opposed to him just after his nomination,
and who came to me and promised me to sup
port the Democratic nominee, have since
come to me and told me the party whip was
too hot, and they would have to support
Blaine, bitter as the pill might be. Well,
such as their words have been will be the
words of thousands Of others who are now
malcontents"
In his desire for ''an awful strong man,
Colonel Plympton favors the nomination of
rare old Ben Butler.

Mr.. R;Iev,s Poetioal WORK.

writer in the July Century, under the sub
ject of recent American poetry, has pleasing
words to say of the metrical work of Maurice
Thompson and J. W. Riley, of this State. [ OF
Mr. Thompsons 'Songs of Fair Weather he
says:
''They realize the wholesome promise of their
title. There is not morbid line in the pretty
volume; there is, indeed, almost total absence
of the intensity which we find in Mr.. De Kay
and Mr.. Bunner spoken of in the same connec-
ton of this city, where all life is, to speak, at
for this lack of passion we have what few poets
of the day have been able to give-the entire
restfulness of rural landscapes-and always
with the touch of personal interest which re-
lieves landscape verse of dreariness,"
The writer then mentions several CT Mr..
Thompson's poems, quoting ''The Archer" and
~s"Dropping Corn" entire.
OF Mr. Riley's work he says:
''Mr. Riley, who enjoys a wide popularity
among Western readers as a frequent con-
tributor to the poetry corner of the newspaper
press, has selected out OF an
samples of HooSier- farmer dialect,
and bound them together in flexible covers,
which make an all too modest appeal to the eye.
In fact they are worth more, with their evident
shortcomings as poetry, than half a dozen vol
umes of the hysterical verse that hides itself be-
tween book kcovers every year, and that deals
with the same old themes in the same old con-
ventonal way The only prototype to these po-
ems is, perhaps, the "Biglow Papers" and to
these they bear, in quality, something of the
relation of humor to wit. They lack the
political or other aim; but they have
an equal faithfulness to the rustic
type; they have, moreover, u pervading and
touching pathos, which is due to the simplic

BLAINE has admirers in all sections of the
country, North and South. Several repre-
sentative Southern papers have been free to
confess admiration of his characteristics, and
are apparently little alarmed at the fate of the
country in case of his probable election. Bill
Arp, in the Atlanta Constitution, says;
FBlaine is great man, and was hopeful
of the sign, but the respectable Republicans
are against him. The Tribune is for him, and
that is the leading paper, but, you see, the
Tribune was or his slate. Whitelaw Reid is
to be minister to England, and that is all
right He will make good one. He is
smart and bold and has got money enough to
do him and his children. So let him 60
Well, we can't please everybody, and so, if we
can't get our man, let's take Blaine, and be
thankful that we live in land where the gos-
pei is dispensed with. I heard a good man
say the other day that he knew Blaine was a
good man, for he was Presbyterian. That
shows our prejudices, and it is all right. We
get our religion from our fathers. You
couldn't make that man believe that Blaine is
a bad man."
