An Old sunday Law.

Another old Sunday law was enforced by
Judge Smell to-day in charge against two
Georgetown citizens. George Bennett and
Samuel Maston were charged with commit
ting the sacrilegious offense OF "working
on Sunday" They were doing some car
pentering work in the Connecticut Pie
Bakery on Thirty second street, and the
complainant was Joseph Pearson, who said
their hammering disturbed him. In re-
sponse to question from the Court he said
his religious CONCENTRATIONS were not dis
turbed, but his wife's were. The penalty is
a fine OF not more than S., or five days in
the penitentlary, and, II the accused is a
slave, not more than thirty-nine stripes.
The defendants were fined 81 each. There
Ia no such law In Washington.
