washincton,s Love for His Mother.


Washingtons love for his mother was
one of his most noticeable characteristics
For her pleasure he FASTENED to bear the
first tidings of every important event in his
life himself, and his letters to her were
models for all sons. His thoughts, actions
and motives were all laid bare before her,
and on her judgment he relied at all times
The letters, in spite of the formal wording
in vogue at the time, breathed of his in
tense love for her. They We're full
of detail such as mother love Graves about
every action and thought, and every event
that concerns her child, for though as time
went on and George Washington came to be
known as first in peace, first in war and first
in the hearts of his countrymen, he was al
ways her son and she his mother Their
position never changed, as it SO often does.
She was always first and he was second in
their relations Mary Washington had been
mother and father both to her son, and even
if no other evidence Of her superiority to the
most of women was at hand, the respectful
devotion of this great man would have
proved it.
From what is known, through history and
hearsay, of Washingtons unusual devotion
to his mother and his continual and open cor
respondence with her, which letters have
fortunately, for the most part been preserved,
one is led to think that there was a closer,
communion of soul between him and his
mother than him and his wife, Martha, though
there is no reason to suppose that he did not
love his beautiful wife very tenderly. But
reason shows that there was a greater sim
ilarity of character and disposition between
mother and SON than there could have been
between Martha Gusts and her husband
Just how close and intimate was the com
munion between Washington and his wife
we can never know, for just before his death
he caused her to destroy all the letters he had
written her, but they doubtless contained al
lusions to matters of only mutual concern;
and perhaps, too, they contained the out
pourings of heart that was passionate and
loving which he felt were too sacred for eyes
other than her own to look upon. This would
very likely be the case with man who made
stern repression Of emotion duty all his life.
Be that as it may, and however much of
tender love the husband bestowed upon his
wife, his noblesG but best affection was
given to his adored mother, and his charac-
ter takes on an added luster in the light of
that pure and holy love

A Mnmnrahle Incident.

Charles Reade, the English novelist, once
accompanied party Of friends to the opera
in Dresden. Wagner's "Lohengrin" was ON
that evening, and here is Reade's account Of
one memorable incident related to that per-
formance:
1--WE had taken front seats in a proscenium
box Suddenly a stranger took seat behind
us and expressed himself in such sentences as
'Ach himmel Sehr gut! Ach schlect! Sehr
schlectr and many other gutterals of the
same sort, clapping his hands meanwhile and
stamping like demented creature until he
became absolutely intolerable. As soon as
the first act was over sought the usher and
requested him to have the lunatic removed.
But can never hope to give you the gestures
or the expression with which the fear stricken
usher replied: 'Ach! das list Herr Wagnerw

army was the hospitals, and yet the speak
er had seen there many triumphant
deaths. The dead were buried in their
blankets generally where they died. "Our
first battle" said Mr.. Cue, twas under
Gen, Sherman in the first attack on
Vicksburg. There we heard the first
sound of battle. | stood and saw the
Lincoln gun boats as they ran the Vicks-
burg blockade. Our last fight was Span
ish Fort across the bay at Mobile. l
shall never forget the night before the
battle as preached to the men, and some
of them for the last time. In the morn
ing we moved toward the foe, first we
drove in the pickets. then the battle in
creased more and more, until it was gems
eral all along the line, and finally the
works were charged and the day was
ours. Soon after came the news of the
surrender OF Lee, then in few days the
death of Lincoln. Finally our muster
rolls were signed and we were ordered
home"
The citizens of Rock Island, Mr. Cue
said, "should esteem it delightful priv
lege to attend the Grand Army camp
fires, the proceeds of which are for the
relief of sick and helpless soldiers and
their families These men are mostly
poor and some of them dssipated; for
that very reason our business men
and all should try to help them, for the
years they spent in the army were
their best years, when otherwise
they would have been laying a
foundation for a fortune or an
education. These soldiers when they
went to the war were young men and
removed from the restraints of home and
exposed to the temptations Of the camp
prising that many are now poor and dis
sipated. For that very reason our citi-
zens should encourage them with their
presence and he'll when in weakness they
are trying to help themselves. 1t is
true that by and by on our graves you
will, on Decoration day, put II little flag
and a bunch of flowers, but l would
much prefer to have some of the flowers
and good will before | die Respect
the defenders of your flag and the
saviours of your country"
Afterward pork and beans were served,
the tables having been arranged back of
the seats and this, as the other parts of
the programme, was enjoyed to the full
est extent.
