Benedict Arnold's mother was ga pattern of

Frederick Douglass the acknowledged leader
OF his race, was an ignorant slave. The
mothers of Grant, of Garfield and of Blaine
were women of energy and noble character,
but their family duties were too exacting to
admit of intellectual pursuits had their early
training inclined them to it. The maternal
influences about these three men were very
similar to those surrounding the youth of

THE Y M r. a. FTNn.

A commodious building for the accommo-
ton would not only be an advantage to that
deserving organization, but would be monu-
ment to the enterprise and thrift of the city
of Indianapolis. Other cities have done very
much in this direction, and nearly every one
of size in the country has provided home
for this best of all extra-church organizations.
The present quarters are disgrace to the
city, and should not be allowed to remain in
their shamefully dilapidated condition. There
are numbe-less temptations to the young, and
the moral people of the world should take
measures looking to some counter attractions,
that will serve to draw young men and boys
away from evil habits of lie. No man OF in
telligence but understands that this orgauiza-
ton is thoroughly unselish, and deserving the
support and encouragement of all good people.
The city can not stand still There must be
progress, or there will certainly be retrogres-
sion. Indianapolis has enjoyed the reputation
of being an enterprising city, one that never
undertakes anything except to make success
of it. This good record should not be broken.
The subscription to the new building should
not be allowed to languish. Pushed to a
speedy completion, it would prove of meal
culable advantage in every possible way, not
only as an investment in favor of good morals,
is steadily growing but it should increase
more rapidly and be completed at once.
Everybody can give something, and if every
body does, the work will soon be accomplished,
to the credit of everybody in the city.

that any feature of her recent concerts at Paris

the true diettanti of Paris, and therefore she
deemed it worthy of her performances; especial

FIVE POEMS BY JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY.
Her Beautiful Ewes.

0 her beautiful eyes! they are blue as the dew
On the vioiet's bloom when the m orning is new
And the light of their love is the CLEAN Of the
Der the meadows of spring where the quick shadows
run,
As the shifts the mists and the clouds froln tho
So stand in the dawn of her beautiful eyes.
And her beautiful eyes are midday to me,
When the lily bell bends with the weight of the bee
And the throat of the thrush is apulse in the heat
And the senses drugged with the subtle. and
sweet,
And delirous breaths of the airs lullabies.-
So swoon in the of her beautiful eyes.
o her beautiful eyes! they have smitten mine
As glory glanced down from the glare of The Throne
And reel and 1 falter and fall, as afar
Fell the shepherds that looked the mystical STAR
And yet dazed in the tdings that babe t. arise.
So crepe through the night of hei beautiful Dyes.
