The Committee on Sabbath Observance
has issued a lengthy address to the citizens
of Cincinnati. From it we take the follow
ing:
We appeal to every citizen to aid us in
securing by all proper means better OBJ
servance of the civil Sabbath, and especially
that employers of labor and domestic serv-
ants make all necessary arrangements as far
as practicable, and even at some cost, to
give to their employed and their domestic
help this day of rest.
We appeal to the pulpit to use its infiu-
ence and teachings in promoting among the
people the observance of the Sabbath; to
carry to the moral and religious waste and
destitute places of our city, to its toiling
and overworked masses the gospel of lone
day of rest in seven," and how to use and
enjoy it Alright.
We appeal TO the press to aid by its
mighty influence in securing the observ-
ance of the civil Sabbath, and respect for
law and order on that day.
We appeal to public officials charged with
the enforcement of law to impartiality, hon
estly and constantly use their authority in
preventing and furnishing violations of the
law of the civil Sabbath.
We desire every man to have lone day Of
rest in seven" and that every man shall re-
gard his neighbors right, his servants
right, his laborer's right to this day of rest
as equal to his own

The present Grand Jury has finished
hearing the testimony in the Cullahan mur-
der case, and through County Prosecuting
Attorney Drew, has caused the arrest of
John Mccormack as being the party who
killed Cullahan.
Our readers will remember that Cullahan
was cowardly shot down on the afternoon
of the goth of July last, after having fight
with Mccormack and Joe Vedder, in John
Reitzs saloon, corner of Court and Linn
streets Cullahan had already passed to
the corner opposite Reitz's saloon, when
the sal1on-door was opened, shot fred
and Callahan struck in the back of the head
by bullet, from the effects of which he
died some days afterwardsatthe Betts-street
Hospi al. An inquest was held by Ex-
CORNER Stitch, who arrived at the conclu.
siol that Mccormack had done the shoot.
in.
Although arrested OH these facts, Nc
Cormack was dismissed some how or other
by the Police Court Judge, Moses Wilson.
The Grand Jury, who will MAKE their re-
port some time to-day, found further evi'
dence, which, they think, will lead to Nc,
Cormack's conviction.
They accordingly. night before last, in
strtictcd Prosecutor Drew to arrest the man,
and lie was accordingly arrested on ca.
piaS, and brought to the County Jail. No
tail was taken.

HARPER.
In the Harper for February we find one
of the most entertaining articles of the sea-
son, and containing deal of valuable nat
ural history information, and with beasti-
full illustrations, entitled, Treasures of the
deep" The second paper of the series,
''Rambles in the South of France" also
splendidly illustrated, will be found well
supplied with descriptive information, in
teresting even beyond the previous one,
given last month. The biographical sketch
of Commodore Hiram Paulding will be read
with much interest giving, as it does, an
account of the various contests on lake and
sea in which this old naval veteran was en-
gagged in 1924. "At the mouth of the
Amazon" has much of value to relate con-
cerning this remote and isolated region and
the manners and customs of its inhabitants,
and together with another illustrated ar
ticle descriptive of "Winter Sports in Can
ada" offers some very pleasing and profit
able reading. Part sixth of !'Old Flemish
Masters" gives sketches of the lives and
works of several old artists of lesser note
Roger Wander Weyden, Jaques Joodsen,
Frank Snyder, etc.
The important subject OF Education by
Hand" is ably treated in an article based
upon the course of instruction in the Boston
chronological Institute. "French Farm
ers'' isan excellent portraiture of Bourgeois
life in rural France. "Mendelssohn's Let
tiers to Madame Moscheles," "Our Travelled
Parson," an illustrated poem, neatly writ
ten and finely pointed ana several good
pieces of fiction make up even for this vet
eran magazine very acceptable number.
