LABOR'S HOLIDAY, A Plea for the Worklngmnn's Day of Ilest, by John McComb. John McComb, commander of Davlcs post, Grand Army of the Republic, whose verses have enriched The Trib une's pages from time to time, has completed a poem which he has dedi cated to labor, and In which he makes n plea for n sanctlllcntlon of the day of rest and celebration for the toller. Ills splendid tribute to the laboring man Is revealed In the lines of tho poem which runs: When men pursue the arts of peace, anil strive for higher grade, Each man then follows out the bent for which he thinks he's made; He (lualllles himself to do a speclnl line of work, And grows to be famlljar with most nny kind or quirk. Then ho becomes n factor In this great and growing land, And he ranks as a producer of some thing that will stand; His skill gives him a prestige that Is dignified by brain, And he n higher strata by his genius may attain. ENGINEER WILLIAMS DYING. Delaware nnd Hudson Employe Who Was Thrown from Train Beyond Recovery. Evan Williams, the Delaware and Hudum engineer whose Injuries by be ing knocked off a caboose In the Car- hondnle yard on Thursday afternoon were noted In The Tribune of yester day, will not recover.

No money order or registry business done. J. II, Thomas, Postmatter. There Is no country on th globo where artisans may stand The peer of any other man, like In our own dear land; For here the way Is open wide, to all who choose to try To better their condition, that most monarchies deny. The honest tollers In this land are her defence and shield! And to their strides of progress all op posing force mut yield; Intelligence Is paramount to arbitrary rank, And he who scoffs nt labor should be treated n a crank. A holiday for worklngmen Is now of legal force. And we are glad to see parades that honor lnbor's course: For peace should have her Jubilee, nnd throw war in the shade, And workmen give attention to their Labor Day parade. Amcnltls of social life should spur our aspiration, To emulate In friendly strife the high est In this nation; Each man Is privileged to rise, accord ing to bis scope. And his horizon will exrand If he has grit and hope. The men who work in mill and mine. In factory nnd shop, Should use their best endeavor to get nearer to the top; By doing so they stimulate the latent power of mind, And thus evolve some new device to benefit their kind. The day Is gone when drudging toll is all there is to life! There Is a time to recreate, and march with ilium nnd life; To get out In a body and to give tho spirits play, While admirers line the pavement to cheer them on their way. AMUSEMENTS. "Common Sinner Tonight." William DeVere will be peon In a new comedy, said to be one of tho season's hits, the principal character, that of Colonel Culpepper Sinner, having been especially written for Mr. DeVere. The title of the new play Is "A Common Sinner," and Is In three acts, the (list being laid In Kentucky, the second in New York and the last act at the sea shore. The story of the piece Is said to be sufllclently lucid to prevent the per formance from being rated as a vaude ville entertainment. Interspersed with bright and witty dialogue. "Pudd'nhead Wilson." Undoubtedly one of the most delight ful comedies of American life to be presented to the theatre-goers In this city during the season is Mark Twain's incomparable effort. "Pudd'nhead Wll fcon." Many of the residents of this community hnve enjoyed the pleasing situations) Incidental to the play when It wns piesented In other cities, but tho general average of theatre-goois here hnve never before been given the privilege of witnessing It. The com pany which has been enguged to pre sent this comedy Ik of a high order of merit, in fact, so supremely superior to any other organization ever hont out with the attraction that a comparison would bo obnoxious. Shtpman Broth eis. who arc directing the tour of the couifdy. have spared no expense, to make It a perfect production. The scenic effects are marvelous. "Pudd'n head Wilson" will he at the Grand on Monday and Tuesday afternoons and evenings. Emergency hospital on Thursday even ing.

It seems, however, that thei doings of these "fakirs" hnve brought harm and loss to other agent in the city who aie employing honest methods In their following, nnd who represent firms of good stnndlng In the commun ity. Among those who have thu suffered Is the Globe Supply company, n repu table concern of Scranton. Their agents have been In the city selling plctuiesi which go with a religious book.

Unfortunately, the housewives would wnlt for no explanation nnd the consequence was that the agents weie rebuffed nt. every point. More complaints against the agents who are accused of doing the faking were heard by The Tribune man. One wwnan was up In her wrath against one of these "artlfs." who took awviy a picture of a deceased clergyman, a friend of the family. The woman re monstrated with the agent, when he insisted on taking the portrait, but hu was obstinate and clung to the pic ture, declnrlng he would bring It back enlarged, though he said nothlnx about the enlargement of the price.
