of character, his exemplary conduct
and his cultivated intellect. Th,
desire and determination TO aocunu
late a fortune, so that ones children
may be exempt from enjoying the
real blessing of actively exertine
their minds and bodies in earning q
subsistence, is almost universal. But
the result too frequently is that the
acquirer of it breaks down in harness
and dies Mt an earlier period than he
would have done if he had not dcdi-
Gated himself so strcnuously to the
performance of his sclf-imposcd task,
while those to whom he bequeaths
his wealth inherit not the blessing he
intended but misfortune. A life
of self-indulgence is about the great
est calamity that can befall young
persons of either sex. and wrctched
is the parent who lives to see the
results of such training. Not in
frequently the sons take to drink or
some other form of dissipation, and
the daughters are sought in marriage
by men attracted only by the dowry
they have received and not by the
personal. moral. or intellectual
charms of its possessors. Unions
cemented by nothing stronger than
self-interest on one side, and
plant disposition on the other, result
in mutual Indifference; and the con-
sequences are sometimes still more
disastrous. And in the long run
perhaps such people come to confess
that their lives have been failures
having been saddled with
that wealth accumulated for them
from the mistaken idea of giving
thereby happiness, when, if they had
not had it, their lives might have
been far more happy and useful.
And the country whose circum-
stances, customs or laws favor the |
easy accumulation of wealth by the
.ew to the exclusion of the many |
will find in the march of time that
lought has done so much to lower
Ter standard of national life and
ven to weaken the very existence of

into the royal presence. There was
a steady stream of ladies and gentle
men for half-an-hour, and then only
an occasional appearance till closing
time. His Majesty shook hands and
briefly conversed with some of the
more prominent citizels and ap-

INCIDENTS.
The regatta committee did hand
somely by the Reformatory School
Band yesterday, providing literally
for their refreshment at the Beaver
Saloon. Mr.. Nolte supplemented
what was paid for by repeated gen.
erous gratuities at the soda foun-
tain, and otherwise, and the boys
expressed their gratitude by playing
series of tunes in the saloon after
the races. BY many such acts, ex-
tending through long series of
years, Mr.. Nolte has earned repu.
tation for generosity second to none
in this proverbially generous COM
nunity.
The police did excellent service
yesterday, during the progress of
the races. There was hardly any
disturbance in the vicinity of the
wharves.

Considerable rivalry has existed be-
tween the Arapahoe and Indianola base
ball clubs, and each club having won
one game, these clubs met at Arapahoe,
last Friday afternoon, for the purpose
of deciding the championship. I'M
pressed with an unwarrantable desire
for gore Or glory, and profoundly fear
full lest the 1ndianolas should get away
with them, the Arapahoe boys secured
the services of Stein and Dallas, the
battery of the Hastings ''Reds, and
proceeded to give the Indianola boys
''bait' in the opening inning by allow
ing them to make 4 runs. But the In
dianolas ''smelled a mice and discrete-
ly retained their good money in their
Cleans" much to the disgust of the
Arapahoes, who had hoped to regain the
800 or $500 dropped by them on other
occasions, and which Indianola had add
ded to her Golfers. Finding the day
poor one for suckers the Arapahoes
did the club from the county-seat up in
the most approved style of the art,
making % runs to Indianola's t. We
know from observation that the Arap-
ahoe boys enjoyed the occasion highly,
but the fact remains to the discredit of
that club, that they lacked the principle
of fairness-a principle in high repute
in this country. The fact that they
hired foreign assistance is an uncon-
scious acknowledgement that Indian
ola's club was superior to their own.
The deal certainly was not fair, and was
unbeeoming boys we know the Arapa
hoes to be.
