DAYS OF reaping have oome, at last
Days OF ripeness and days of gold:
Down the mesdow-way, glad and strong
Love comes singing his harvest song
Love Is brown with HE harvest toll.
Brown and brawny OF limb is he,
Master strong In the garden moIl.
Lord OF pasture, and plant and trees
Treasure-burdened. he plods along
Singing brightly his harvest SONG
And In answer the autumn breeze
Sings a pleasant and fair refrain

THE POLK PAPERS.


The Chicago Historical Society is now
the owner of the most valuable set of
private papers in America which re-
main unWorked into historical volumes
10 includes the diary and correspon-
leuce, state and personal. of James K.
Polk and has been purchased of the
heirs I'M Nashville for $500. The Gre
die for securing them for Chicago is due
to Or. j. w. Ferug. professor at the
Lewis Institute and secretary OF the
Historical Society
The diary is contained i'm forty vO-
lumes full of interesting data and COM
ment The impressions Of different
members of the Polk Cabinet are found
under the dates when the meetings
We're held, and there is much which
gives truer insight into the character
of the man and President than any
thing historians and critics have ever
writtenn.
The correspondence covers a period
Of twenty years-one of the most i'm
portant and trying periods i'm American
history 1t is in Folks own hand
writing and is remarkably legible.
There are letters from Andrew Jackson
and replies from Polk, negotiations ont
the Oregon boundary, remuneration of
Texas, communications with the Britt
ish Parliament, over what were very
veXing ~uestions and complete his
tory of the progress of the diplomacy Of
that time.

EMPLoYE ELEcTRocUTED.
Hawaiian Chinese Boy Killed While
Turning on Lights.

Henry All Fai, a Hawaiian-Chinese
boy about nineteen years of age en-
ployed i'm McInerny's furnishing store
was killed by coming in contact with
the electric current used for lighting
the store, about five o'clock on Satur-
day afternoon.
All Fai was in the act of turning on
the switch to light the store when he
received the fatal shock. The switch
was behind the door and a case of UNI
brellas also blocked the way so that
All Fai, to save time, CROPPED behind the
door for the switch handle, at the same
time grasping an iron pillar supporting
the building at the entrance.
The switch was above All Fairs head
and the burns on his hand showed
where he had grasped the metal parts
of the switch. This, coupled with tbs
facts that his other hand formed a
chain with the iron pillar outside and
his shoes were damp with perspiratlon
completed a circuit
The switch was turned off with a
stick by another employe and All Fai
released from the current Attempts
at resuscitation proved useless only
faint signs of life being shown. a
coroner's jury was held and after eXa-
mnation excused until 1870 this after
noon.
Queries brought out the information
that the voltage passing through the
body of the deceased was a secondary
circuit of 10 volts, not enough to cause
death under ordinary circumstances.
The post norton showed that All Fai's
heart was weak and his other vital or
gans i'm "A diseased condition, the de-
ceased being i'm bad health. The boy
has been employed in the store for some
months and is said to have been a
faithful and willing worker. Efforts
are being made to find his friends and
relatives.

BLUE DIAMONDS.
They viii Grace a New York Christmas
Tree.


Every blue diamond known to history
will hang from branches of American
Christmas trees if current gossip
among New York jewelers. is true. The
three largest above ground are now in
New York, and sold to wealthy Ameri-
cans as ornaments for their holiday dis
plays of generosity.
Benjamin f. Cheney of Boston Is the
only known purchaser. He has just
bought from J. Dreicer the second larg-
est jewel of this kind known to the
market. This will be his Christmas
gift his wife, who is known on the
stage as Julia Arthur
BY far the most famous diamond in
the lot is the Hope diamond recently
purchased in London by Joseph Frank
els Sons, in Nassau street for a
wealthy New Yorker as the central fig
ure for his family Christmas tree.
Still a third diamond of blue color is
said, by Cattle, Stern & CO., to have
been purchased by them for another
New York customer, and Is said to be
nearly as large as the Dreicer diamond.
This is still in their possession, but it
is to be delivered before Christmas.
Blue diamonds are almost as rare as
blue roses, and the history of those Of
any size has been as full of romance
as the lives of the crowned heads which
they have usually Ornamented. The
total value Of the three jewels now in
this city is estimated at $4,000. The
real selling price is refused by the
jewellers.

Two notices posted at the Anglican
church yesterday by order of Bishop
willis, and au address to the second
congregation by the Rev. Alexander
Mackintosh aroused decided scusa-
tion among commandments of both
congregations yesterday The Bishops
notices asked ail the patishionors to- re-
gister as his parishioners.
After services were over yesterday
morning The Rev Macintosh left the
ghanCel and made AN address calling
attention to the word from the bishop.
Hhe stated that he had received let
ter from The bishop which threatened
the very existence of the congregation,
and asked the members to attend
meeting this evening to discuss the
matter. The members will therefore
meet tonight al 1880 in the sunday
school To- discuss this latest difficulty
with the bishop.
The first of the bishops notices cali
ed attention to the fact that the con-
.stitution Of the American Protestant
Episcopal church, succeeding the Eng
fish, would go into effect January !.
and stated that an licenses issued by
the bishop under the old constitution
would have to be renewed. Those not
renewed within Is days would become
null and void. This includes the Ii
censes of the Rev Macintosh and
others.
In this second notice the bishop call
ed an election of wardens and vestry-
men for st. Andrews cathedral ON
January 10, to select wardens and yes
trymen who shall serve under the new
system. He also announced that those
who would be entitled to vote, would
be those who had registered with the
cathedral wardens. The registry book
is to be opened this evening, in the
cathedral school room.
The object of the bishops notices is
to have the second congregation aflili-
ate with his own, and form one congre-
CATION, thus putting a formal end to
the long division. He announces that
he is about to retire and would like TO
turn over a harmonious church to the
American bishop who will succeed him,

The fencing tournament at the \. Nj.

disappointment to the spectators was the
Tact that Professor Drant of Philadel-
with Fencing Master du Pont, was not
present. 1t was announced that he was
i'll and unable to come. j. Danforth
Bush agreed to contest with Lieutenant
du Pont in an exhibition bout, and, as
was expected, it was an exciting con
test.
Lieutenant du Pont demonstrated his
skill with the foils to the entire salts
faction of the spectators and the bout
was loudly applauded.
The opening number was class work
by the fencing team, which gave good
exhibition. This was followed by fenc-
Ing bouts, which resulted as follows re-
spcctfully as to points and form:
Bush, s, 40; Glover, s, 40; Cooper, 2, 0;

viii Retire as President.

At the regular monthly meeting Of
the Board of Trade on Thursday even
ing the nomination of officers will take
place. A report was current on the
streets yesterday that President Will
liam Lawton would not allow his name
to be used for denomination.
When seen yesterday afternoon by a
representative of The Sun and asked
about the rumor, Mr.. Lawton said:
"Yes, the report is true. l have been
president for five years and think I
have done my duty in this direction.
Let some one else take it now. l think
it is good thing to make change once
in while.'
Various members of the board when
they heard of the report said that they
were sorry to see Mr.. Lawton decline
denomination, as he had for so long
taken an active part in the work of the
board as its president.
