already piled up in the blotters on the police

BOYS READING-ROOM.
Larger Quarters Demanded for Ac-
commodation.

Some months ago reading-room for
boys, who would otherwise have fre-
quented the streets, was started on
Third street, near Main. The boys very
quickly took advantage of the oppor-
tunity, and scarcely night has passed
but that the small room has been
crowded with urchins, who were fur
nished with magazines and papers of a
suitable character. Recently the rooms
have been superintended by Mrs. Still
man Drane and Mrs. Shinkwin, who
have, in addition to their labors, paid
all the expenses for rents and lights
out of their own pockets; but a
period has been reached when other aid
must be obtained, or else the boys will
be left without place TO spend their
evenings and spare time. These ladies
have at intervals furnished entertain
ment for the boys, and several lectures
have been delivered by ministers whose
interest has been obtained. The num-
Der of boys who attend has increased to
such an extent that larger and better
accommodations must be obtained, and
as this means a considerable expendi-
ture, the ladies hope to receive aid in
their efforts
