A SUNDAY BILL.

Senator Blair of New Hampshire.
re.introduced his bill for q national
Sunday law.
The It's thing to be noticed about
this bill is the title and the importan,
modification of it as compared with
the title of the origina! bill intr, dueed
In the Tftie,h Congress, and a. c"m-
pared with the title proposed by tho
American Sabbath Uuion . year ago
last December. The title iu the org
inai bill read
~ bill to SECURE to the people the
eni ymeut Of the 6rst day of the week,
co,nmonly known as the Lords day.
as day # rest, and to promote its
ooscrvA,,cs As q day Of religious wor-
ship"
This title threw the bill so open to
criticism on account Of its religious as
pcct that the American Sabbath
ln.on asked that it should be made to
read us fnllows:-
"a bill to secure the people the en-
ymeut OF the Lords day, commonly
1nown AS Sunday, as day Of reiig'
lou, Worship"
This however was pronounced by
Senator Blair az stronger ana more
interfering than the other.
BY the experience Ut the last sum
mer, the advocates Of the Sunday law
have themselves learned that this has
. stronger religious cast than can be
vel defended in legislation, and there
fore, tho title Of the bill as now intro.
duced, is stripped Of its religious cast
and is made to read simply thus:
"a bill to secure to the people the
privileges Of rest and Of religious wor-
ship, free from disturbance 10y others,
on the 6rst day of the week"
II this title described the real OBJ
ject OF tho bill it would be very i'll.
nocent measure, provided it we're true
that the people have not already Sc
cured to them the privileges Of rest
and religious worship free from the
disturbance Of others, not only on the
FIRST day of the week. but at all other
times. 1t is = fact, however, tina,
there are no people in all this land
who have not the privileges Of rest
aud religious worship free from dis
turbance by anybody OH the first day
of the week, and all other days and
aights of the week The workers for
Sunday law know this fun we'll. The
field secretary Of the American Sab.
bath Union made tour Of all the
States and Territories the past summer
in the in,erests Of Sunday laws. In
Portland, Or, aud in San Francisco,
he complained especially of the loose
way in which Sunday was observe l.
The wri or Of this article was present
at the field secretarys Sunday meeting
IN Portland and twice in San Fran
cisco. and Mr.. Crafts knows that the
worship OF tt Q congregations to which
hs preached in those cities, and to
whom he complained OF the sorry
manner OF Sunday observance in those
cities-were not disturbed in the
slightest degree, nor was there any
disposition ON the part Of anybody to
disturb them. This he kn0ws AZ well
~ We know it, and this they all know.

A writer on press topics remarks as
( Flows: IF the people who complain
of what the reporter writes about
them would only consider what he
does not write about them, they would
shrine him in the friendliest corner Of
their hearts. The waste baskets in a
daily newspaper office of any town DO
more to keep it's citizens in good re.
pute than any other agency, excepting
the fear of the law and the hereafter.
Not all the reporter writes is truth.
He is not infallible himself, and those
who are the sources Of his information
are much less so. There are very
m my men who cannot tell straight
story. There are others who do not
try to. The man who tells the story

party. He has purpose to serve in
metamorphosing this or suppressing
that. The reporter has no desire ex.

completely, and to write it quickly

undertaken, "but ! can tell you a
mighty nice little story, the truth of
which my books will verify. 1t is
about the noble action of little girl
who came to me about 6fteen years
ago. She Mas then about twelve years
of age. and despite the fact that her
outward appearance suggested parental
negligence, she appeared to have a
noble and homes, heart 1t was about

ing when she walked into my office
almost frozen and crying bitterly.
She asked to see me, and when |
made myself known she stopped cry
ing and told me very pitiful story
that would soften the heart in the
coldest Of persons. She said she lived
near my stable; that her father was =
drunkard and her mother wa, dead.
She and little brother, seven years
of age, of whom she thought the
world, were cared for by the neighbors
when the father was on spree. and
despite the fathers misconduct the
little girl could not be induced to
leave him. She kept the house and
prepared the meals. She bore her lot
philosophically and tried to be happy.
but her peace Of mind was almost
wrecked when after about two weeks
sickness her little brother died. He
was her pet, and the two were much
attached to one another.
"She again burst into tears, and be.
tween heavy sobs she said that on
account of her fathers evil ways
there was no money in the house, aud
she did not know how her brother
could be buried. She had been told
that the city would bury the remains,
but when shs looked into the manner
in which such buria. would be per-
formed-tbat the coffin would be a
plain, pine box, aud that, instead Of i,
hearse w4gon would take him TO the
Potier's field - sie became almost
frantic and would not allow it. She
wanted hiin to have . white coffin, a
white hearse with white horses, and
his remains t. be taken to Calvary
cemetery.
Crying bitterly, she said: L will

and although thought Of the story

since, while seated in my office, a
handsome and well.dressed young lady
entered aud addressing me by name,
called me aside. She asked me if

PEELED to acknowledge my ignorance.

Rev. DR.. Hendricks entertained
quite large audience last night at
the First mberland Pres byterian
church on the excuses of men for not
being Christians. His discourse was
we'll received, sometimes his audi
ence would burst into laughter and at
the next moment sOlemnity would
reign to the extent that pin could
scarcely fall to the floor without
being detected.
The Doctor has a highly pleasing
way of handling his subject. Prof.
Buchanan led the music assisted by
his choir. AS a singer Prof. B. is
equal to Mr.. Sankey in the palmi est
days. All should hear him.

Corbett's Money Up to Fight f. p. slavin in
April Next.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 4.-James J. Corbett,
the San Francisco pugilist, has sent dispatch
to New Orleans which seems to indicate the
probability of fight between himself and
Frank P. Slayin within the next three months.
Two weeks ago. Charles Stenzil, Corbett's
manager, telegraphed the Olympic Club, of
New Orleans, that Corbett had accepted the
offer of the club to fight Slavin to a finish for
5000, and requested the club to cable the ac-
ceptance to Slavin and secure the latter'S
answer. Corbett received a Telegram yesterday
from Charles Noel. of the Olympic Club stat
ing that Slavin accepted, providing Corbett
would wager 81 SEQ as a side bet and deposit a
forfeit of s., ,00O. Corbett telegraphed Noel that
the money IT quired as a forfeit by Slavin had
been posted, and the match had to occur before
april 10 next. Stenzil also notified the sport

THE NEW CLUB TO START AT ONCE.

SLOSSON TALKS ABOUT HIS DEFEAT.


There are few men in this world who take
q more roseate view of the future than does
Director j. Palmer O'NeilI, the local base
ball magnate. Yesterday ]. Palmer was
confident that the new club will be thor
oughly organized tomorrow or Monday.
This somewhat sudden change in expecta-
Gons was caused by meeting OF the n. L.
club stockholders, held yesterday afternoon
The meeting was chiefly to adopt plan by
which the club can be dissolved, and this
was done without much trouble.
Those present were Messrs. Nimick, Con-
verse and O'Neill. The clubs Indebtedness
was stated TO be about S25, 900 or S26, 900.
The gentlemen agreed to settle these bills IN
way quite satisfactory to the creditors, and
that ended the matter. Referring to the
meeting, Mr.. O'Neill said:
"We are all right and everyone of us quite
pleased. We have had no trouble in decid-
ing on plan TO clear off our debt, and we
are ready to commence the new club on
Saturday with our hands absolutely un-
fettered. OF course we cannot entirely dis
solve the club for a few weeks. There are
few matters of red tapeIsm that the law re-
GulfeS WLlC0 must De zone. Ne must make
affidavit to the effect that we dissolve free
from any claims of creditors and that we
start in with the new organization with
clean hands. We will co this, and l can
say that there is no unpleasantness at all
among US. The z. /. people will also get
In line tomorrow evening and then 1 don't
see why we cannot apply for a charter on
Saturday and thoroughly organize Monday"
The Players League stockholders will
meet again this evening, when it is conf
IDENTIFY expected that they will agree to pay
the clubs debts by all contributing their
legitimate shares. If this is not done, it is
understood that the clubs effects will be
sold al auction TO satisfy the claims o! rent.
i this is done, then those who at present re-
fuse to pay anything toward the debt will
get nothing, and will have no share in the
new club. Last evening, however, Mr.
O'Neill said that whether or not the P. L.
club affairs are settled up tonight an appli-
cation for charter can be made at once. 1t
is likely that this will be done.

the Federal courts have no adequate jurisdic-
tion of these offenses.
Section $500, of the Revised Statutes, provides
that if any person attempts. by intimidation,
threats, ETC., co prevent any citizen from exer-
cising the right of suffrage, and in SO doing
commits a felony, or if two or more persons
conspire to debar any person from the enjoy
ment of any of his civil rights. and in so doing
commit felony, such felony shall be punished
according to the laws of the State wherein the
same is committed.
Broadening of the Law Wanted.
If section $500 were so broadened as to make
any felony committed while in the act of vio-
lating any statute of the United States the sub
ject of trial in the United States courts, and
punishable according to the laws of the State
wherein the same is committed, it would
greatly help in the administration of justice.
So long as persons who kill officers. witnesses
or jurors for the purpose of impeding the ad-
ministration of justice can only be tried and
punished In Federal Court as for a minor
otfense, the administration of the United States
laws and the laws themselves in many districts
will have little respect.
The Supreme Court has recently decided that
there is a Peace of the United States" Is it
not the duty of Congress to provide by law for
the preservation of this "peace" everywhere
and at all times? In prosecutions for viola a.
tions of the election laws in several districts,
convictions and pleas of guilty have been OBJ
tanned IN a large number of cases.
Counties Pay the Fines.
As an illustration, however of the difficulties
met in such prosecutions the District Attorney
for one district reports that in certain county,
a number of whose citizens were convicted of
violations of the election laws, the county
court ordered all fines and costs assessed
against them in the United States Court to be
paid out of the county treasury; and that in
another county, a number Of whose citizens
were in like manner convicted or had pleaded
guilty to indictments for such offenses in the
United States Court. $1,000 was actually paid
out of the county treasury upon such fines and
costs in one day. These facts speak for them
selves.
1t has been known for years that in certain
districts large number of naturalization GER
tificates have been issued in violation of law,
so that great many persons have been voting
without right 4 large number of suits have
been brought to set aside such fraudulent
naturallzatlons, and many final DEGREES CAN
ceiling the same have been rendered in the
United Circuit Courts. 1t is believed that by
these suits much may be done to purify the
ballot box in those localities.
