BOTH ARB "HOW
Detroit Free Frta*.
It is Charles Dudley Warner, we
believe, who urges that boys should
be cmight young, put in a bar
rel tmd fed throngh the bung-hole un
til they have arrived at years of dis
cretion. And yet after many and for
cible reasons for regarding boys as
blessings in disguise, and so well dis
guised as to be mistaken for some
thing quite the contrary, most every
body will agree with the eulogy ho
pronounces upon the boy. “After all,
he says, “there is something I like
about a boy."
Boys are the terror of cats, their
mothers and their elder sisters, but
the cats would lead but a dull career
witbont them; while a mother would
scaroely know what life really is if she
was freed from the constant anxiety
she feels about her boys. What un-
rulHed but unprofitable hours of lazy
enjoyment would fall to the lot of ol
der sisters. Sloth and ease and a be
lief that this world is not a world of
aunoyanoes and discomforts would
enervate their characters. Boys make
us feel that we are not put here sim
ply to enjoy ourselves, but to develop
our characters. fSo with teachers.—
What a monotonous existence would
be theirs were it not for boys,
teacher of girls alone wonld mistake
earth for paradise, and so not having
any nse for Heaven and not believing
in any such place as a refuge from
earthly miseries, would never strive to
get there. Bnt a teacher of boys ev
ery week looks forward to a better
and brighter world, makes good use
of Sunday in fitting himself for it,
and in hoping that be will get there
sometime, to make up for bis trials
here.
The ash man who should not get
snow-ball down bis back; the rag pert
dler who never found the wheel of his
o.irt suddenly coming off; the street
car conductor who did not have to
drive the boys from the rear platform
the passer-by who did not get a base
ball In his abdomen or a bean in his
ear; the nnrse girl and her baby who
were not scared out of their wits by
the sudden rush of a velocipede
upon their heels, would not en
joy their tranquil intervals of exist
ence nor fully know the value of peace
and quietness. So that after all boys
are of very great nse—especially ns i
discipline and a means of moral im
provement; and they are not to be
despised, bnt rather to be cborisbed
and loved, os they are very apt to be
as soon |as they have passed their
eighteenth yoar.
But there, are “boys" and boys—
“boys” with a quotation mark and
boys without It is the “boys” with
these jnarks that do not deserve much
charity, and do get bat prerioas lifetlo
liking and admiration. It is the
“boys" with these murks that frequent
drinking saloons, stand on the street
oorners, become rowdies at an early
age, are riotons, foul-mouthed, vio
lent and oven blood-thirsty lx
they are twenty-one. This is the kind
of “boys” that are not entitled to the
name. They become street roughs,
if not burglars and highway robbers;
or ore dissipated, virions, lewd and
going to perdition in droves. It is
gangs of this sort in large cities and
on the frontiers, who ore known as
“boys” but who belie the name. A
mean bnt true specimen of them are
the Mnlley “boys"—young men well
advanced in manhood, bnt covering
up their debauchery, dissoluteness,
riotons living and even graver offen
ses, by pretending to the giddiness
and thoughtfulness ot Iwnhood. They
have uo claim to any such excuse or
any sneh exemption. They are men
mature in wickedness and crime, and
The politicians, too, love to hide
their tricks and their games with the
pnblio service by pretending in a jo
cose way that it is the “boys” who are
really responsible for the evil deeds
of caucussee and conventions, of wire
pulling and political deviltry general
ly. They imagine it softens the of
fense if they assume that it is the
“boys” whq most be looked after and
looked to for the wrong doings in
politics, whereas the majority of these
“boys” are gray with the many years
they have given to learning and prac-
og their contemptible political
frauds and maneuvers. No, in jus
tice to the real boys, whose youth ex
cuses much because it is “their nature
to,” the “boys” of the street corners,
the frontier, and the political man
agers, ought to have the name taken
from them.

and franchises of a corporation under the provis
ions of an act of the Legislature of the State of
Geocgia, aurovod September 37th, 1881, entitled
•An act to provide e general is
San Francisco Post.
Fourteen years ago, when Chester
A. Arthur was a struggling local poll
tician in New York, of what is known
there as the custom bonse variety, he
numbered among his friends the mate
of a vessel, named Kennedy, whose
influence Arthur bod often occasion
to use when circumstunoes required
the votes of the floating population of
the harbor front ,
Just about that time Arthur made
an unsuccessful effort to obtain some
minor municipal appointment The
mate condoled with his political
friend upon his disappointment, and
soon after sailed for Washington with
a cargo of hardware. While ascend'
ing the Potomac a block and tackle
fell upon the mate's head, indenting
bis skull in such a tuuuner that the
tnau became practically an idiot, and
was placed in the District of Colum
bia Insane Asylum. A short time ago
the famous surgeon Dr. Gross, of
Philadelphia, visited the asylum, ex
amined the patient and performed an
operation invented by himself, which
resulted in the almost immediate re
turn of the patient’s reason, the inter
vening fourteen years being, of course,
a complete blank.
A day or two after his recovery, the
mate walked oat, and began strolling
throngh the Capitol bnilding. Al
most t he first person he encountered
was President Arthur, who was just
leaving the Executive chamber in tbo
Senate wing.
“Why, how are you, Kennedy?”
said the President, affably extending
his hand. “Glad to see yon.”
"Howdy, old man," said the snilor,
“How’s things ? Got a job yet ?”
JYell, I believe I have,” said the
Executive, with a smile. “A pretty
big job, toa Yon must come up to
the White House and see me.”
“To the White House ?" repeated
the amazed marinor.
“Yes, just ask for my private seere-
tur, and he’ll show you right in,” and
the President walked on.
“Poor old Chet—clean gone, clean
vone,” mused the mate. "Actually
jolioves himself to be President of
he United States. Smart man once,
loo. That just shows yon, gentle
men,” ho continued, turning to the
bystanders, “what politics and disap
pointment will bring a man to. Poor
old Chet!"
