The gold, The crimson, purple, silver coloring dies, The flowers their pctulB close ; The stars begin to ope their twinkling eves, And dewdrops gem the rose. II. Now see The amorous youth approach the garden gate With rapture in his eye, The maid he knows his coming dolh await With fond anxieiy, And he Deems he Is blest beyond nil men the sun E'er shed his beams upon ; The maiden's guileless heart he's sure he's won, And it is all his own.

In an ancient legend, Persians say That a rose-tree blooms at the gates of Pay, And once in each life, be it sad or gay, Comes the scent of that flower from the fur off skies. And the heart seems lifted to I'aradise. Ami, oh, the day that it came to me! Tears cannot famish the memory, love, Of that moment out on the summer sea When the fragrance fell from above. Your eyes were raised, and their tender tale Had made me forget the freshening gale, Till the waves were dashing over the rail, And the clinging arms of a ragged cloud Had wrapped the sun in an inky shroud. With the timbers straining under onr feet, And our faces pale in the lightning's glare, We learned for the first time life w.is sweet, For we learned for the first time that love was there .' Blest was the fragrance that came on the blast, Bright was the moment, but swiftly past Ah, far too blest, loo bright, to last ! For the mighty, paasiouless, pitiless sea Claimed wtiat was dearer than life to me. Ah, merciless Memory, draw thy veil AtTJM the path of that leaping wave! ?hut from my eyes the loosened sail, And lift my heart from that ocean grave.' . W. in l.ippmcc-tt't fur August.

A council meeting of the Miners 1'rotec tive Association, the Knights of Labor and the Industrial League of La Salle coun cil. was held on Tuesday, Aug. 10, at K. of I. Hull. Ottawa, at which all labor organi lations were represented. The following ad dress was adopted, and is here published by reaucst: To Tiia Farmkkb ash Agbicclttkal Laiior kbs or La Sallk Cointv: The Representatives of the labor organi xations of this connfy in council assembled give you greeting: It has come to our knowledge that a mis conception of the aims and teudencies of our organizations is prevailing among you, and that you are prejudiced against us because of this misconception. We feel that you are our bretheru and we desire your friendship o, l uvmniiili v ilm vnu now have ours. Vte believe too that wo have such common intur . . . ' F J , J ests as will warrant us in joining our forces for the accomplishment of a common pur pose. As producers and laborers, we stand on a common ground and are natural allies. In view of these facts we ask you to con siderour position fairly and frankly, and accord to us the same consideration you are claimingforyour.se s. We see in the growth of poverty and the concentration of wealtli that history is repeating itself in this couu- try, and that unless something be done that we shall soon be in the same condition as the working classes of the old countries. In our humble way we are putting forth our efforts lo prevent this state of affairs from coming to pass. It is true we do not know just what to do; and we are frequently in error, doubtless, as to what the true remedy for our trouble is; but we are making an earnest, honest effort to better ourselves by using all the means of improvement that we know of. We are confident that the free in stitutions of this country offer us an ample opportunity to work out for ourselves and our posterity the problem of industrial free dom, and we are unalterably opposed to the methods of anarchists or revolutionists who propose to achieve reform by subverting the institutions of this country. We glory ia our free republic and are loyal to its prin- ciples. We are convinced that if our cause cannot succeed by adhesion to these prin ciples it ought to go down. All we ask is the sympathy, encouragement and counsel of our fellow-laborers in our effort to avail ourselves of the opportunities we have hith erto neglected. Purely we shall not appeal in vain to the generous idlers of the soil, ho so nobly and self sacrificing! gave their blood and treasure for the emancipa tion of the chattel slave. We believe that some good can be wrought in our condition by legislavtive means. We are not hoping for a legislative panacea that nhall cure all our ills, but we are certain that, with a just representation, we shall be able to frustrate the passage of mauy bad laws in the interest of corporations and monopolies, and, perhaps, shall be abl to secure the passage of some beneficial laws in our own interest. Now, we are a large body of the voting population of this country, and we have never been represented in Springfield by a man whom we regarded as a representative of our views. Is it not fair, we ask you, tint we should have such representation? We have been constantly told by politicians au l publicists of all opinions that our reme dy lay in an intelligent use of the ballot. Well, we aiui now trying to follow (heir advice. Fellow laborers of the soil, are we not rijiht '.' And have you not voiced the same com plamt we arc now giving utterance to ? Have you been represented in the halls of legisla tion according to your numbers, your intel ligence, or your moral worth? V'e think not. Then why not grasp the extended hand of fellowship that we warmly and heartily proffer you and join with us in an earnest and honest effort to better ourselves and our c mon country. Ho not be mislead by what you have been told concerning our actions and purposes. We confess that we have committed errors, and have not always done the best or wisest thing, but would it be less than a miracle if, out of our first crude etlorlsat organizing men who are held to be of the lowest grade in the social scale, we had been perfect in the results obtained ? Wo have done the best we could under all the circumstances, and shall do better as we become more familiar with the methods of collective action. In this self-improvemeut you cnu help us. Will you do it? We will not recite to you the specific measures which we now think will benefit us. They can be found in the main in the platform of the State Convention of the Knights of I-alior, recently held at Streator. We think you will fiud little therein to which you will object; but if you do, we have still to say that our purpose is, primarily, to impress our spirit and tendencies on the legislation of our time. We wish to be real factors In the government of this great coun try which we are proud to own as ours. We may ourselves change our views, as vve grow in political knowledge and wisdom, as to what the (rue remedies for our ills may be, but our ulterior purpose will ever be the same, to wit : (o make this a laud where the greatest uumber of people that cau bo sup ported may lead well conditioned lives. Will you aid us in the accomplishment of this purpose, nnd in the acquirement of that self. enlightenment by which it may be brought about? We commend ourselves and our cause to your kindly consideratain. You are our brothers, and you cannot judge ti harshly. We bespeak your friendship and your sympathy, and we appeal also to that common bond of inter st which links all the sorrow laden eons of toil in our common da- j tiny-the bond of unrewarded Industrial servitude. We aatioipate the impulse of gen- eroug hearts and feel already the thrill of your rMponge t0 our appeal. Hopefully, trust- I . .. . .. . fully, we submit our cause icyour cuusivici.. tlon, confident that (o our plea you will be .. more than just, more than generous. Solomon Bosrsit At tt, Chairman. A.

On Friday night Inst, the residence of Al Funk of Streator was entered by burglars. Mr. Funk was awakened by their noise, and lit a lamp, but while pnsslng from his bed room to an outer room he encountered a man who knocked the lamp from his hand, breaking it and scattering the burning oil over the room. Mr. hunk grappled with a burglar and a desperate encounter took place. Funk proved himself the better man and had his antagonist on the floor and was punishing him in good style, when he was attacked in the rear by another villain with some sort of a weapon presumably a sand bag and was struck by the second party several times until he was knocked into a state of unconsciousness. When he recov ered, he was lying in the bedroom, and opening the door of the outer room he was driven back by the dense smoke and escaped from the bed room window, and aroused the neighbors, who immediately directed their efforts towards saving the furniture and suc ceeded in saving some in the usual condition contingent to such occasions.

Here Ho nettil one, and then, as His mariner was, explained it. Ho was lient on touching His disciples, aud through them His people in all time, how to care for one another. Fii-st of all wo may study the state of mind of our Lord (vs. l-'f). It was lxforo the feast of the pnssover, when the crucifixion wa to conio. He was to depart out of the world, t' No no more visibly with thu disci plos. lmt with tho Father. Many in the pros. IKi't of i -leviitioii forget the companions of tin ir lowly estate. Not so Jesus. Ho loved to th" end' or to the full. Ho choso them; tbev followed Him; His love never failed. His own immediate burden did not keep Him from thiiihing of them. Our sorrows com niouly n'.Tcct us only when they come. He saw nil along the baptism of grief uud pain that lie must p through. V. "J i- a parenthesis, or his knowledge of Satan's work in tho heart of Judas is men tion. d roonlling the nearness of the "bup-ti-ni,' for "iliirin xupNtr," the devil having nlpi.ty put. into, nk (s-si revision).

The chief priests were, by their known feelings, the tempters of Judas, but he invited their action, lie yi"lded to temptation in over-love of money, and he limy have ivsentl our Lord's plain words on that matter (Matthew vi, l'J-r.'l; Luke xvi, 11; Mark x, :.'.' . The evil in his heart thus led to ruin. Lust conceives, brings forth sm. and sin finished brings forth death. The hixtoryof Judas is well worth study. "Let a inn ii examine himself," it is constantly s-iving. Love of money has its darkest illus tration in him. Yet how many go back on the Master whom once they professed to serve, lor money, or the worth of it! And how many miss their mark nnd go to ruin! Jesus had nt this moment the full conscious ness of what he really wn.s. This is mentioned to how the full extent of his condescension. He was not a king's son unknown to himself, us wo may see in u romance. He knew whence he enme and whither be wtts going. So his jieople stoop down to the lowest service the most readily when they most realize their dignity. They have no mere form of honor to guard. They are' sons of God by grace. They can in their places show a kind of grace. He sieiint to teach n great lesson in a mem orable way, first doing some tiling unexpected and then explaining it. fc he said to Peter, "Thou shnlt know hereafter." Ho did not menu in heaven, but Imfore they loft the room. Now we look at tho typical act Washing the hands and feet of others w as the act of a servant. So he leaves his reclining coucn our chair removes tho loose over robe, like our coat, only wido and flowirg, without sleeves'ur buttons, took a towel and fastened it to himself, us servants did at such duties. Then he put w ater in the basin and U-gau to wash the disciples' feet anil to wipe them w ith tho towel. "Then cometh he to Sinnni Peter." The rest were probably amazed, but too timid to nuctftion or protest. Poter was among tho oldest aud outspoken. He w-as moreover impulsive, as we sea hero. He strongly irjH'ls the idea of Jesus w Selling his f.vt. lie would not let tho master stoop so low. lb- would not accept such an honor! His ipiestion is one of strong protest. Jesus replies mildly, in words tho secondary and true application of which has clucivd mil Lions, h is in efun-t, "I will explain why afterwards." It it is true that what liod does to us w utVn cannot understand, but after wards in heaven wo sliull see it all clearly, the why and the wherefore, tho wed and the meauing. (S I Cor. xiii, li) But Peter Ls resoluV i.v. "never." Now Jesus takes a different tone and puts the words in another sense. "Why, if thou art not wnslusl by me, thou hast no jart with me" not in me. "Thou art not working and toiling in the sanit) cHiiso with me." Peter sees the mean lag. "Ah! Lord, if that is thy deep meaning then wash not my feet only, etc. I will suffer, anything rather than not be with thee," "No," says Jesns, I am not now dealing with the cleaning of thy soul; that is entire agd complete. I am dealing with the daily walk. I am not showing how a rout is kuved, but what a saved man should do. A man just bathed (Revision) only need to have his fent washed. It is something in the daily walk I am pointing out to the. You are saved, you are disciples, lmt" and then tho fact of Judas' plot and treachery comes in mind "but not all," for he thought of Judos (v. 11.) So tho evangelist expluins it. Now we ccMiii) to the meaning (vs. PM7). V. l'J describes, as one who saw it nil would do, the movements of Jesus. He is calm and delilarato. All eyes are ou him ; all hearts are filled with inquiry. Rivlining again, ho put tho question which often fixes uu idea in the mtnd, "Know ye," etc. He recalls the light in which they regarded him, "Muster and Lord." This was right. He was nil tho words implied. "If I then, the Lord and the Master" (Revision), "have done this to you, y ought to do tho like to one unother." llo explains why this act wus done an ex ample. They might forget ft word, but could they forget this di-edf He risnlls the general truth: a servant is not greater than his lord, nor ho that is sent (as they would Ikj by him by mid by) than tho sender. This lesson he had illustrated to them a simple net, but involving many a truth his dignity, their relation to litin, their obligation to him, their duty to huitate him, and not only to love, bear w ith nnd help one another, but, forgetful of self -low, pride and vanity, to stoop, if need so low us to wash one another's fift.
