A LULLABY.

Baby, sleep and dread no harm; clasped in
that protecting arm,
Not breath of ill shall come to thy angel
guarded home
Older eyes may weeping waken, older hearts
may grieve forsaken:
Thou art safe in Graded rest. birding in q
happy nest.
TITS weary world no doubt, but thou hast
not found it out:
Only love has sheltered thee, from thous-
and perils free.
Coming 10 the world stranger, thou hast
known no fear nor danger;
Little king from morn to night ruling In thy
sovereign right
Golden head on pillow laid; violet eyes
meath Silken shade;
Dim pied hands and dainty feet; cheeks like
roses, flushed and sweet.
Gift of gifts to mother given, making home
an earthly heaven.
Meath the spreading angel wings, where the
ch1lds own angel sings.
Far and wide the angels fly, sweeping down
the starlit sky.
Some to watch DER beds Of pain, some to
hover DER the main. 9A
This to bid a bright dream perish, that q
sunny hope to cherish,
But the dearest angel still guards the house
hold pet from Ill.
Here and there are brawl and strife. there
and here is buoyant life -
Dancing feet that trip to measure, hearts that
tbrob with gayest pleasure,
In the baby's day is calm, isles Of peace in
seas of balm.
And the baby has no care, yet too young for
guile or snare.
Life shall bring thee many grace, baby in
this holy place,
Health and wealth and youth and fire, love
and JOY and hearts desire.
Never in the time to be shall the angel turn
from thee,
Never till the heavens are dim, cease to
chant thy cradle hymn.
As watch the angel light in that guardian
form tonight,
Something dual battles thought, strangely are
my fancieS wrought.
Could the look be less Elysian If the radiant
heavenly vision
Wore no pinions floating wide, wore no
beauty glorifed,
Only looked as mothers do when the mother
heart breaks through
Eyes that were the baby's sky, though no
seraph waited nigh.

in regard to convict labor. The assem-
bly, voted S25 to the Saltwater molders,
and promised other aid if necessary.
The committee on early closing re-
ported that they had canvaSsed some OF
the stores, and reported forty sigma

dealers except few on Seventh street.
The committee will continue its work
until all dealers are visited.

A circular was received from Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, asking the differ
ent organizations to record their vote
for or against woman suffrage, and for
ward the same to congress, asking that
the question of such constitutional
amendment be submitted to vote of
the people.
The matter of a building trades coun-
Gil was discussed with considerable an
imation. and a meeting will shortly be
held TO organize such body.
The grievance committee stated that
that they visited number of firms who
decline to employ union men. Some
firms have discharged the non-uniOn
men, but the following firms still en-
ploy boys or non-union men: Busch
mann, McVeigh Bros, Malmquist,
Kremmel q Koenig. These dealers all
affirm that they have no great objection
to union men, and the bakers hope to
settle the matter amicably.

MISS ABBOTT AT FLORENCE.
Debut of the Little Singer in
Italy.

Chicago Tribune.
r. ii. Park, the sculptor of the Drake
Columbus fountain, vas one of the many
Americans present at the debut Of
Emma Abbott In Florence. He was at
the Palmer house Yesterday, and told
how some of her enemies tried TO make
the first nights performance amostdis-
agreeable one to her.
sMignon,'" said Mr.. Park, land Miss
Abbott was in the title role. The man
ager was DESTROYS of having a protege
of friend Of his appear in her place,
and was offered $4,000 francs to induce
Miss Abbott to give way to the other
young woman. The financial induce
ment was big one.and the impresario
did everything in his power to have
Miss Abbott postpone her debut. be-
lieve he even went so far as to offer the
Chicago girl money, but it was no use.
She was determined to appear in Mig
nom at the time announced. and when
the lmpresariO and some of his friends
threatened to hiss her off the stage ut
her first appearance, she was all the
more determined. The little girl. as we
then called her, SLOWED her spirit.
swell, the time for Miss Abbott's first
appearance came around, and the top
gallery was packed with crowd of
roughs with instructions to hiss Miss
Abbott of the stage at certain time.
The young woman was to sing, by re-
quest, ANGELS Ever Bright and Fair"
and at the conclusion of the first verse
the paid mob broke loose, and such a
kissing You never heard. But Miss Alb
bott's friends were in the parquette, and
nc che was deserving of an encore she
received it, and Dravely came forth
again. 1t was trying time for the
young woman, but amid all the jeers
and Kisses she sang the second stanza.
The next day she was i'll with brain
fever, and for many weeks she was I'M
able to endure any excitement.
'.But the musical critics praised Miss
Abbott's voice, and her future was thus
an assured success. 1t was rather
rough beginning for her, but she was
brave enough to appear before another
audience at Florence and was not sub
jected to any annoyance"

Items of Interest.

The legislative committee met Thurs
day evening. Among those present
were A. S. Edwards, Oliver Erickson
and j. l.. Mcdonald. The committee
discussed the eight-hour law, lien law,
convict labor and other matters on the
calendar. All bills to be presented by
the Minneapolis labor ORGANIZATIONS are
being drawn up and will be in proper
shape in few days:
The stockholders of the K. Of L. Build
ing association will hold special meet
ing at the Labor Temple Tuesday even
ing, Jan. 10, to consider the financial
affairs of the association.
The walters union met Tuesday
evening and sent its application for a
starts with about sixty members, and
will draw up a union schedule of wages
to be presented to employers for sigma
ture.
The painters and paper hangers
union holds an open meeting at the
Labor Temple tomorrow evening. In
dnstrial topics of interest to the trade
will be discussed.
The Stevens library board will meet
at the Labor Temple on the evening of
Jan. 90. Officers for the ensuing year
will be elected, and full attendance
OF the board is expected.
The carpenters union met Thursday
vening with large attendance and
installed the newly elected officers.
The North Star Labor club met
Thursday evening and held an interest
ing discussion on the plan of starting a
daily newspaper devoted to labor inter-
ests. There was good deal of diver
sity of opinion. Many of the members
thought daily paper of the sort men,
toned would be patroniZed by the
such an organ would be great obstacle
in the way. Others thought the existing
dailies would fill the bill if the laboring
| classes would make it for the interest of
| the proprietOrS to pay special attention
| to industrial interests. The discussion
| took wide range, and brought out
some rather original ideas.
The painters and decorators met Mon
day evening and installed the following
| officers: President, A. D. cambridge;
| vice president, j. HanerwaX; recording
secretary, s. q. Gomez; financial secre-

Entertainments in private houses at
the present time are very elaborate and
very costly, but fancy-dress balls. with
all the opportunities they offer for brill

leaders of society who have given the
matter any thought, and four of them,
who the other day were discussing the
question of entertaining. unanimously
arrived at the conclusion that the rea-
son for the lack OF popularity of balls in
costume is to be found in the compare
tive scarcity of costumes and the posi-
tive lack of ideas in designing dresses
that are inexpensive at the same time
that they are attractive.

There is a rumor in labor circles that
there is movement on foot among a
certain class of merchants to have the
Sunday closing law repealed, or at least
amended in such way as to make it
practically imperative. The clerks and
BARRIERS unions on the other hand would
like to see the law aRended by attach
ing heavy pengity for its violation.
These unions sFe specially interested i'll
the matter because Sunday work would
directly effect them. Their position is
supported by the other unions, and the
Legislative committee of the State Fed
Grafton is instructed to use every effort
to pre7ent any amendment being
adopted which would make the Sunday
closing law even more useless than it
is at present.
At the meeting of the Eigbt-Hour
League to-day there will probably be
some steps taken to organize building
trades conference. Representative mem
bers of the unions of crafts connected
with the building trade, state that the
plan would be more satisfactory to con-
tractors, as we'll as to employees. If the
conference is organized soon. an agree
ment will be made as to what trades
will ask the eight-hour day next spring.
Contractors can then place their esti-
mates accordingly. Such organizations
have been very successful IN other
cities. st. Paul is not likely to prove
an exception.
At the Labor Lyceum this afternoon
Thomas Ward, general secretary of the
StonecutterS' Union of North America,
will read paper on the history Of the
eight-hour movement in this country.
Mi. Ward has spent considerable time
in patient research on this subject, and
from his intimate connection with
craft that was one of the first to obtain
the eight-hour day, is doubtless well
qualified to handle the subject.

HEAT REGULATION.
A Perfect System, Combining
ECONOMY and Health,

In the offices and rooms of many of
the principal buildings in the Twin
Cities-and elsewhere-can be seen a
little appliance adjusted to the walls,
resembling an ordinary thermometer.
And such it is, with electrical automatic
attachments which govern the heat of a
room. Any degree desired can be main
tanned by adjusting the appliance, which
in turn governs the supply from the
boilers. The occupant is never too
warm nor too cold. The workings of
the system are simple and perfect.
Health, comfort and economy are pro-
NOTED. The fuel bill, so important in
this country, is regulated thoroughly.
In looking into the merits of this system
we found at Duluth two buildings of
about equal size, one with and the other
without the appliances. A saving of
about 5000 in fuel was effected at the
building using the system over the other
