THE sUsBEAM's MISSION.
BIT GRACE EDDY.

Down in a cellar a little plant lay,
Sadly she wept through each dark Winter day;
Friends and companions were gone far away.
Once in a beautiful garden she grew,
Warmed by the sunshine and bsthed in the
dew
While all about her sweet fragrance she threw.
But to that garden the fIost came one night,
PSor dropping Rosebush she shivered with
fright
stood in her beauty all trembling and white.
Der her the gardener shook his wise head
:" Poor little flower, fear she is dead.
Yet will give her the chance of bed"
Thus in the cellar, she lay, cold and drear,
Torn from her kindred and all she held dear;
None spoke a kind word the lone heart to
cheer.
Once as she wept thus-for sad was her theme
Through the dark easement tSere crept a sun
beam,
Turned the tray cobwebs to bright silver
sheer.
"I pray you to tell me, my young friend" he
said,
"why is 1t you hang down your pretty green
hesd7
Yourleavcs are bat vilted, your sweet buds not
dead;
That fate has been cruel know 1t is true,
Then sll the more reason, believe me, for you
To wake up and hnd you have something TO
do"
The little plant listened and soon to be seen
We're rich bulls Of crimson and bright leaves of
green
As never had gladdened that cellar ween.
She spread Ger the easement a covering fair,
In pattern Of rose-buds so dainty and rare;
While delicate perfume she breathed in the
air.
Again came the gardener, What a surprised
He scarcely believed what he saw with his
eyes,
Such fragrance, such teauty, such marvellous
sizel
Dear children, the plant speaks to you to
me,
And show us, whatever our portion may be,
That we can make beauty for others to see.
Let us hide with glad sunshine, in cold, cheer
less spot,
Then blessed be our portion and happy our lot,
Whether home be palace or only cot.

A SONG OF A LEAF,
BY JOHN FRANCIS WALLER.

flung leaf on summer stream,
That plucked from the alder-tree;
And l watched it dance in the sunny beam
Where the eddies played ripplingly.
"Oi for life like the leaf l." cried,
"Floating along on the sunlit tide"
Over the water came breeze,
And it hurried the leaf along;
Down to the marsi stopped the trees,
And they whispered gentle song.
90 for a life like the leaf" cried,
"Ever in sunshine and song to glide"
Fast sped the leaf on its joyous way.
Till it reached the rocks in the river;
Over the ledge, amid foam and spray,
Went the leaf-and was lost forever.
"Ah, me! Is life like the leaf ?" 1 cried
"Like the leaf" the echoins rocks repliel.

Father, some one has murdered YOU"
He answered, "No; Twas coughing and
my head bursted." His bed was covered

face. The skull was fractured for three

cu,cAco. Noy. 3.-To .'fI Ectlo.o WorLmen:
After q careful consideration Of everything,
have concluded to Withdraw my name as candi-
date for County Commissioner at this time.
It is but justice to those who nave honestly and
consclcutiously supported ne that 1shoud state
nv reasons for so dung. They are as follows:
1 went into tho Worsin.mcn's movement forthc
purpose Of securing proper representation for
the industrial classes. something they llavc long
felt the want Of, as is evidenced by the one
sided legislation which has been enacted in
every representative body from the Board Of
Aldermen to the Senate. went in with honest
intentions and sincere convictions that the time
had CONT when all honest men should demand
that the representative, Of thu people should
look after tho interests OF t2eir constituents,
even should it be to their own detrimcnt.
T need not saw 10 you that l. take
This step after mature dclibcration, anu
siup|y because I belicYc TINT the ad-
yunccmcnt Of the peoples interest is Sit
ncr;or to any personal ambition. i had been
assured that should l remain and countcnance
this fraud upon you, my lellow-woEk.aei', thai
would have had the Endorsement OF those VINO
were SO anxious to be callel the friend OF the
worl,inutnan, while at every opportunity they
spat in your face. Keep to YOUR principles, sec
that you art honestly represented, and the day
is not far distant wlcn the laborlng interests OF
this country will he III ditferenl state from
what thcy are now. Yours for the right,
JOHN MCG1LyRAY.

To the Editor al The TRIBUNE
CHICAGO, Noy. 3.-As 4 Scandinavian can
not resist the temptation Of uttcrins protest
against the disgraccful manner in which our
representative, Mr.. Ricchel, has been treated oy
the Democratic party. Mr.. Ricchel may be
satisfied with his treatment, but l doubt very
much whether his countrymcn are. The Scan
diuayians were anxious to be represented, aud
hence would have given their votes to Mr.. kcch-
cl. but his resignation ~ will not transfer their
support to Mr.. kayanaugh. This DrniocratlS
Commitment to SCANDINAVIAN intelligence aud
sense Of honor is thoroughly appreciated by US,
and We shall try to bear it with becoming mod
to return the compliment by doing our best to
teach the Lieb- Lynch crowd a useful lesson IN
political good faith aud honesty. We can stanu
a good deal OF kicking, but we gencrally Ike 10
Ei.s hack. and this is 6rst-ratc opportunity to
Indulge IN that kind Of diversion. It may not
be 4 pcc,,i:arly Christian mode OF procedure,
Tut 1t relieves the feelings all the same.
