he had given me a hearty thrashin(
as a return for hearty Jest.
I had reserved broad piece ol
silver for the old widow. But I first
ran towards the river, and walked
upon the mill-bank. / was surprised
at the apparent narowness Of th'
stream; and, although the willow
still fringed the margin, and appear
ed to stoop in homage to the water
lilies, yet they were diminutive
Everything was but o miniature O
the picture within my mind. II
proved to me that my faculties had
grown with my growth and strength
ened with my strength.
With something like disappoint
ment left the river side, and stroll
ed towards the church. My hand
was in my pocket grasping the broad
piece of silver. I imagined to my
self the kind look of recognition ]
should receive I determined on the
way in which I should press the mon,
ey into the widows hand. But !
felt my nerves lightly tremble as ]
thought on the look her son had
given, and might again give me.
All, there is the the cottage ] but
the honey-suckle is older, and it has
lost many of its branches
The door was closed. A pet lamb
was fastened to q loose cord under
the window and its melancholy
bleating was the only sound that dis
turbed the silence. In former years,
T used, at once, to pull the string
which assisted the wooden latch; but
now, I deliberately knocked. A
strange female form, with q child in
her arms, opened the door. I asked
for my old acquaintance. "Alas |!
poor Alice is in her coffin look, sir,
where the shadow of the spire ends !:
that is her grave" I relaxed my
grasp of my money. 'And her de-
formed boy?" "He too, sir, is therel"
1 drew my hand from my pocket.
1t was hard task for me to thank
the woman, but I did so. I moved
to the place where the mother and
the child were buried. I stood for
some minutes in silence, beside the
mound of grass. 1 thought of the
consumptive lad, and, as I did 30, the
lamb at the cottage window gave it's
anxious bleat And then all the affec-
tionate attentions of my o,on mother
arose on my soul; while my lips
trembled out--."Motherl dear mother!

BLOSSOMS.

Fair pledges of fruitful tree,
Why do ye fall SO fast ?
Your date Is not so past
But you may stay yet here awhile
To blush and gently smile,
And go at last.
What were ye born to be
An hour or half's delight,
And so to bid goodnight?
'Tis pity Nature brought you forth,
Merely to show your worth,
And lose you quite.
But you are lovely leaves, where We
May read how soon things have
Their end. though ne'er SO brave;
And, after they have shown their pride,
Like you, awhile, they glide
Into the grave.

% the Editor Of the Globe Republic:

To the Editor Of the Globe Republic:
MIDWAY, O., Jan. 4, 1885.
The topic that has been claiming the most
attention in this community for the last
week has been the arrest of our much de
tective, Bill Ray, or Doodle Bill. as he is
called. and his assistant for alleged horse
stealing. The circumstances connected
with it being so peculiar, we will make no
attempt at detailing them, but hope our
courts of justice will bring them to the sur
face. While the better thinking portion of
our community have been for some time
satisfied that a portion of our citizens have
in = measure supported and harbored to
long. character that deserved from all
good citizens but contempt
We often wonder at and yet are thankful
to the surrounding community for patroniz-
ing us when village the size Of ours will
tolerate and support two dogeries all the
week. and some Of cur stores, in open viO-
latiOn Of the law, to say nothing OF good
order. will open and sell their wares on
Sunday. right under, and in spite Of an at
tempt at keeping In operation a Sabbath
school, this too by men who are jealous Of
"HO 0sC
ing under these circumstances and conditions
to keep in view the welfare Of the comniu-
nifty; this, too, by men who are jealous of
Others for being more respected for trying
to bring about better state Of society rath-
er than to encourage the iii and unrespected
getting of gain. Under these circumstances
can We think Of anything that We have any
reasonable right to expect than that our
boys will say some day, Circumstances
have made US what We are. A walk along
our streets among the small hours of the
night will reveal what some Of our dear old
mothers well know, while Others have
but slight probability Of imagining.
under these circumstances, can good citi-
zens be asked. with favor of justice to
them, to longer tolerate this State of things,
growing under and in spite Of their pro-
tests? The duties Of good citizens are
sometimes not pleasant, especially when
they are obliged to inform prosecuting at
tOrLeys that such q state of affairs exist in
a community, and more especially among
their neighbOrs, but law is liberty is the
opinion Of KARL.

Maexie Mitchell Tonight.

The advance sale Of seats indicates that
Maggie Mitchell will have large audience
this evening to witness her new play.
Maggie, the Midget The Springfield,
Mass. Republican says:
Maggie Mitchell is still easily queen of
her own department Of acting. She is I'M
approached in the reality with which she
presents the elfishness, the gayety and
rampant animal spirit Of hOydenish girl
hood. and in the winning touches which
show the warm heart lying close beneath
the rough exterior. Her dancing is as light,
her ridicule as keen and her vigOr as unfag
ging as they used to be, and although the
touching voice is worn, it is handled with
great skill. Maggie the Midget Fred
Williams play, in which she appeared at
the opera house last evening before large
audience, affords her abundant opportunity
for the exercise of her especial talents, and
also demands, in the latter acts, the express
sion of devotion, self-sacrifice and strong
womanly passion. The play is well con-
structed, with simple and direct story
whose interest increases steadily until the
happy ending. and it Is much better than
most American plays .-

Expenses Must be Reduced in Order to
Keep the On . Popular .Gym." From
Going Under.
The regular meeting of the Springfield
Athletic Club was held in the gymnasium
last evening with about forty members
present The principal thing before
the meeting was the annual elec-
ton of officers for the en-
suing year. As there were not quite half
Of the members present, the meeting was
adjourned over until one week from to-
night, Jan. 12. 1t was decided last night
that, to make it possible to keep the organ
ization on its feet for the present year, the
current expenses must be reduced tOa lower
level than they now run. The first thing
suggested was that correspondence be held
with Hon. John W. BOOkwalter to ascer-
tain whether or not the present amount paid
for rentage could not be lowered. Six hun
dred dollars Is the price being paid, and as
the association is now in debt to Mr. Book
walter to the amount Of $500, it is plainly
evident that this amount can no longer be
raised.
Mr.. Cartmell proposed that the annual
dues be raised from 50 to $40. Counting
one hundred paying members this would
make the amount $1,000 pei
year from dues alone. 1t has,
heretofore, cost $4,000 per year to
run the institution and unless
the rentage was very much decreased the
annual expenses would not be very mate
rally lessened.
Forty dollars are also owed to outside par
ties, and the bills are still pill
ing up. The next meeting will
show whether the Springfield Athletic Clut
can be sustained in its former elegant man
ner, or wherher it shall have to go under
pressed down by its heavy and fast accumu
lating debts.
