Leadville's New Sunday.

A Sunday in Leadville to-day is .
very different thing from what it was
two years or even year ago. At that
time the only distinction between the
days of the week was that on Sunday,
il anything, more business was done,
and the crowd on the streets was great
er. It was the day generally selected
for all kinds of entertainments, and,
with the exception of one or two modest
congregations that met for religious
services wherever they could find 3
spare room, there was little or no oppo.
siti0n to the attraction of the theaterD
and billiard halls. Merchants and
clerks looked forward to it as a day Of
extra long hours and hard work. At
the mines the seven days were ono and
the same, and the fashion which they
set was the one that generally obtained.
The sound of church bells would have
been mistaken for q fire alarm, 80 novel
would it have seemed, and even the
strictest church .goers at home kept
track of the days Of the week merely BY
the aid of the almanac, ,ig! a.t ~
40 Gradually = few leading merchants
closed their doors on Sunday, and its
importance as an exceptional day Of
business began to decline. Others fol-
lowed the example thus set, and 4
gradual reaction set in, until many Of
the mines discontinued all work not ab-
solutely necessary. Still the day re-
NAMED more of q holiday than one of
religious observance, as in the freedom
of . Western mining town it will always
remain to . greater or less extent. Dur.
ing the Transformation; the various re-
ligiOus denominations had been organ
izing and gaining strength, and soon
tho proverbial liberality of = mining
community was seen ia the number Of
handsome churches that arose. Fortp-
nately their pulpits were filled with lib
eral-minded men, who could sympathize
with the sentiments and rough customs
OF new community, and were thus
able to exercise an influence that would
otherwise have been but little felt; and
It the idea Of pastor presiding over .
dancing party among his parishiopers
seems little too liberal to some of the
good conservative people in the East,
they must remember the story Of Mo-
manned and the mountain. as well 10
the greater freedom and iiberality of
Western. and. especially, mountain Gus
toms and ideas. Practical common
sense preaching, and earnest parochial
work have built up large and healthy
congregations, and when the church
bells ring this morning the Sabbath
quiet OF the streets, and the throngs of
well-dressed and intelligent-looking
people vending their way to church,
will bear witness that the orthodox Sun.
day has at last reached Lesdville.-
