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.
He Is at Emergency hospital and last
night It was given out that he was
sinking and not expected to survive
long. The terrible force of the fall
fractured the spins below the should
ers nnd the lower body has since been
In a state of paralysis. Williams' wife
and daughter, who live In Chicago,
have been summoned.
Prominent Scrnntoninns Here.
Additional Law Judge J. W. Carpen
ter, City Solicitor Watson and Attor
ney M. W. Lowry composed a party of
prominent Serantonlans who spent sev
eral hours In the city yesterday. The
city In Its gala attire drew forth many
comments of admiration, and they gave
out the assurance that they would be
sure tn be here during Jubilee week.
W. H. Davis, superintendent of the
Snuqunlt silk mill, and Valentine Bliss,
owner of edlk mills at North Scranton
nnd l'ticeburg. were visitors from
Scranton on Wednesday. Mr. Davis Is
of the genial and sunshine tempeia
nient. nnd when Iip frees himself from
the cares of the mammoth mill he looks
after, he goes among his friends spread
ing good cheer'nnd teaching lesson on
the enjoyment of life, with the worries
left on the outside. Mr. Bliss Is also
n most congenial companion, and counts
his friends In multitudes.
Labor Day nt Postofflce.
Labor day (legal holiday), Monday,
September '! Postofllce lobby open for
general business from 7 a. m. to 12
o'clock and from 3 30 p. m. until .30 p.
m. for lock-box owners only. One de
livery of mall by carriers. 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. Williams was engineer on the
train that ran down and killed a man
named Eustls nt Mooslc. The wife of
the deceased has sued tho company nnd
It was for the purpose of getting tho
testimony of Williams that tho attor
neys came to town. The Injured man
was too delirious, however, to bo op
proached. THE INNOCENT ONES SUFFER,
The Doings of Fnko Picturo Dealers
Harming Those Who Aro Honest
in Their Methods.
The Tribune has told of the doings of
"artists" who have been fleecing the
people by takng nway pictures of mem
bers of these; families to hnve them en
larged and returned with the portraits
enlarged, also the price of the same,
to the extent that It was a mild form
of extortion.
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. They
have not been enlarging portraits, nor
have, they solicited any orders of that
character, hut when they approached
houses yesterday they wetc greeted
with the ciy: "If you're picture deal
ers, we won't hnve anything to do with
you; we've rend about you In the pa
pers." 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.
