The sun as it fingered on the edge
of the horizon-sinking so slowly
that one may say it regretted to leave
The world In darkness lighted up
his face until the grandchild asleep on
his knee would have hardly have
recognized him had she opened her
eyes.
Old and feeble and gray ready to
bid farewell to earth-he was q child
again, and bis mind had the thoughts
of a child. The sun had gone down
and the dusk had come on for ten
thousands Of times without question,
but this time he felt afraid and whis-
pered
"Oh sun, do not leave me just YET.
Wait until / am man, and shall
care not whether it is day or night ,
And the sun whispered back to
him:
Il have seen you pass from child
hood to manhood and back You
cannot travel the path again"
'sBut wait o little longer. When /
have grown to be youth the coming
Of night will have no tcrrors for me.
ALAS old man, answered the de-
clining sun, ''a grand old tree cannot
become shrub again. 1t may be
splintered or uprooted by the hurri-
cane, but it must die as tree"
"Then remain with me y pleaded
the old man my limbs are feeble,
and your light will safely guide my
footsteps"
That / cannot do, but ] will send
the moon to cast her rays upon the
earth and soften the darkness of the
night"
And when the moon came the old
mans locks were changed from the
gold of sunset to the silver Of eve
ming, and tho furrows of age were
melted and softencd until they could
no longer be seen. And he whisper
ed to the moon
"Do not leave me tonight, for / am
old and afraid Of the darkness Of
night"
II cannot stay beyond my fixed
time, answered the moon, "but when
/ 60 / viii send the stars to keep you
company"
S 81 had wife-chiIdren--iriends.

terious unknown"
Alas but the dead arc dead n
And the moon went away and the
stars came, and the old man pleaded !:
81 am old and lonely. Bear me
company during my brief stay on
earth
And one bright star answered for
oil the rest
"A hand greater than mans con-
trolls our movements Look beyond

And the stars drew aside the mys-
tic veil, and the old mans eyes look

LONDON, Nov. 29.-Fifty thousand Par
nellites gathered together opposite the vice
regal lodge in Dublin to-day, despite the
rain that was falling, and pledged their
confidence to MI. Parneu. Crowds of
youths, headed by bands, paraded through
the principal streets, singing ''God Save
Ireland" A row took place opposite the
Conservative Workingmens club house,
in which several windows of
the club house were broken by
stones. A meeting of the supporters of
Mr.. Nolan, Mr.. ParnelPs candidate, who
is running in opposition to Mr.. Callan in
Dundalk, was advertised to be held to-day
i'll that town. Four thousand Callanites
assembled and prevented the erection of a
platform. Mr.. Parnell, who was present,
attempted to speak from wagon in the
market square, but was howled down. He
retired, shouting you hired ruffians!" A
number of fights took place, and
Mr.. Nolan, who also attempted to
address the crowd, was hooted and
peIted. The Parnellites withdrew to the
hotel, where similar scenes were enacted.
In one of the fights youth was stabbed
and dangerously wounded. Mr. Parnell and
Mr.. O'Connell authorize denial of the re-
port that the Parnell manifesto has been
withdrawn. Mr.. O'Connell and two other
Nationalist members of parliament will adj
dress meetings in the Conservative inter-
eSts next week.

THE M1NNEApoLIs wHIrEwAsH.

A pretty kettle of fish is the Minneapolis
city administration. And a pretty pot of
whitewash it mixes for its own publication.
For lame and impotent conclusions the re-
suit of the recent investigations takes the
rag Off the BUSH The mayor started out to
investigate the crOokedneSS of the police
department. and the Investigation winds up
by the leading accused police official giving
the mayor certificate of good character.
In fact the whole administration seems to
have suddenly been metamorphosed into
mutual admiration society. The
city officials seem to admire the
new coat of whitewash with which
they have been painting themselves.
Now. that poor CHASE has been made g
scapegoat and has been baniShed into the
wilderness of disgrace, with the sins of the
administration bundled to his back. the re-
naming officials imagine that they have
been purified in public estimation and
bring to the altar as their offering of thanks
giving two turtle doves in the shape
of letters of exchange between the
mayor 0and the recently-accused po-
lice clerk, which are, in effect
bills OF credit or certificates of golden repu-
tations. There is something peculiarly
touching in this correspondence. 1t lifts
the veil which obscured from public view
the load of sorrow which had bowed down
two grief-stricken hearts when public
clamor demanded an investigation.
1t reveals the suspense of that Exquisite
interval while one was on the rack of in
vestigation and the other sat with bated
breath awaiting the result. And when the
investigation is ended, and the lately-ac-
cused police clerks apprehension that the
verdict is against him is removed by an
epistle from the head OF the administration
assuring him of an individual verdict of ac-
ouittal, what touching pathOs there is in
the language of the clerks reply in which
he acquits his honor OF ali suspicion that he
was engaged in all attempt to prosecute
