aNReRCiNG SUNDAY LAWS.
Mayor AlImOnd. Of WiIninstoD,
ana any0r Stack, OF Newcastle
ON New Tack.

II will be remembered that some time
ago quite q furore was crested il vii
nington over the notification by tine
police officers Of Rll ths keepers OF sa-
loons and cigar StogeS, to keep their
places closed on Sundays. /! was then
Yum6red around that the Mayor intend
cd to enforos the Sunday Law very vIs.
erously, and for One day the order had
good effect. This rext Sunday a
lumber of places wsYe kept open Oh the
sly, and on the Sunday following no
secrecy was observed at all snd no Or
rests were made by the police. Since
that time open liquor traffic on the
Sabbath has been as gepeyal as it was
before the Issuing Of the Mayors order.
About o week ago another order 10
the Same effect was issued by tine Mayor
and since then the officers have
sao gong around notifying tho keep
ers Of the different places to close Oh
the day in question. One cigar store
keeper was not notified until yesterday
about a weak having elapsed since
the order was Issued.
Just what the result OF this will be is
hard TO tell. One thing which mutt
seem little discouraging to those ~ho
lock with favor upon the new depart
ure is the experience OF last Sunday.
The officers were given orders to arrest
those Whs sold on that day. Saloons
we're busy all over town but no arrests
were made for violating the Sunday
liquor law. The only one who has suf
kersd thus far has bssn the little PEN
nileSs nsws boy who YVES selling pa
pers at Front and King streets.
AT NEWCASTLE.
Mayor Black, of Newcastle, who has
been contemplating the same move,
givea notice that hereafter he will
strictly snfores the lav against selling
liquor on Sunday. LiquOr selling on
hes been q great annoyance in
and this will exert salu
tary effect upon the rmorals Of the
town.
