SUNDAY In FRANCE.

PARIS, Jan 13-There is a movement on
foot here to secure the popular observance
| Of Sunday, and very strong society has
been formed 10 further this cause. The
honorary president of the society. Senator
Jules Simon, said to-day: I'VE desire that
our workmrn may have days rest once
week, and Sunday is naturally the day
we have chosen. But our undertaking is
difficult one, because it runs counter to
numerous customs and interests which do
not like to be interfered with. At present
our factory hands and shop people work
not only during the long hours of every
week day, but also on Sundays. We do
not wish to forbid people working on Sun
day if they wish to do so, but we aim to
prevent them from forcing other people to
work"
NJ. Leon Say, the eminent political econ
omist and deputy, who is president of the
society, said: Our society is the result of
q congress of social ecoI onists held in
Paris during the exhibition of 1889. 1t
WAS then unanimously recognized that a
weekly day of rest is Indispensable TO the
working masses. We do not ask for legis-
lation, but depend entirely for success on
the power OF persuasion. And 1t cannot
be said that we have hitherto labOred in
vain. Two years ago our society numbered
twenty persons; today we count over Z, 500
emhers, made up of Republicans and
Monarchists, Catholics and Protestants,
bishops and free-thinkers. We have
already achieved some practical results.
In the postoffice we have got the hours
shortened on Sunday, and we are now
laboring with the railroad companies"

THE GRAVES CASE.

CHESTER, Pa, Jan. 13-Mr. and Mrs
Worrall, who were so closely connectefi
with the Graves trial in Denver, arrived
at their home, Sunny Side, near this city
yesterday.
1T is the universal opinion in Denver,
SAID Mr.. Worrall, That if ever man
hanged himself Graves helped himself In
{ hat direction by his own appearance In
the witness box. He had undou htedly the
finest jury which ever heard IL case in Colo
rado. JurymeD in that state must be
property owners, and the jury was picked
from 700 talesmen. The judge was, If any
thing, favorable to the prisoner. but for a
whole day and half be deliberately con
tradlcted himself and made a bad impress
sion on he large audience as we'll as the
jury. may say since the trial Juryman
told me that was what convicted him. A
lawyer friend of mine suggested to me
what seems plausible Inspiration which
might have been the primal motive of DR..
Graves committing the crime. Over
year ago Graves was In Denver and cut
quite a figure. At the time there was a
famous case in progress in the courts
known as the MillingtOn poisoning case.
Graves WAS a constant visitor TO the court
and seemed fascinated.
''Millington was acquitted and of course
my friends suggestion is that most likely
Graves thought Denver was a safe place
to commit such a crime. About the con-
fession duplicating Ballou, why, before
that was published in any paper. District
Attorney Stevens and deputy sheriff
told me the same story, remarking that
they put no credence in it because Graves
proved himself such liar. Mrs. Worrall
is still suffering from the effects of the
poison, her limbs and toes being lnsenslDle
TO heat or cold What seemed TO me very
peculiar was that Graves, charged with
such serious crime was allowed TO walk
at large till found guilty. 1t seemed
strange to all the eastern people, but that
is the way they do things out there. The
Judiciary of Colorado has very dignilied
Representatives and their supreme court
has always upheld Judge Rising. who
tired Graves, SO ! think it unlikely that he
will get new trial Judge Beliord, who
assisted District Attorney Stevens, is an
extremely bright man. He IS Pennsyl
vanian, native of Lewistown, but resld-
ing in Denver for some time.
Dr. Graves was described by Mrs. Wor-
raj rs being very handsome man, grad.
uate of Harvard, and a lifelong friend OF
Colonel BallOu.

THE GRIP EPIDEMIC.

LONDON, Jan. 13.-There is no abate-
ment whatever in the epidemic Of influenza
which is sweeping over England. On the
contrary, reports daily received from hun
dreds of places throughout the country
show that tie disease continues to spread
with increasing virulence. Among the
persons prominent in English society who
nave been attacked by the disease are
Lord and Lady Brooke, who are Doth pros
trated at Warwick Castle, their residence
in Warwick. Lady Brooke, it will be re-
called, is a particular favorite of the
prince of Wales. The present influenza
epidemic, both in the United Kingdom and
on the continent. has been marked by the
large number of ecclesiastical dignitaries
it has claimed as its victims The latest
announcement of the death of high eccle-
siasric was Rt. Rev. William Reeves,
ID D.. of the Church of Ireland, Protestant
bishop of Downs.
Advices from Paris show that influenza
continues to increase everywhere in France,
and the number of deaths resulting from
the disease is very large. Dispatches from
Berlin and Vienna state the disease shows
no sign of abatement in Germany and
Austria. though it is now as sarule of less
virulent type than previously. In Bel
gium influenza continues to be widespread
in its ravages. A peculiar feature of the
disease IN that country is shown by the
fact that large number ofinsane persons
have bean attacked In fact, persons of
that class in Belgium seem to be particu-
larly susceptible to attack. A dispatch
from Biarritz, France, announces the
death at that place today of the earl of
Charlemont. Death resulted from an
attack of Influenza
United States Minister Lincoln was
obliged to take to his bed yesterday. He is
suffering from influenza, but the attack is
said to be of mild nature.

THE RESULT OF MERIT.

When anything stands a test of fifty
years among discriminating people like
Americans, it is pretty good evidence that
there is merit somewhere. The value of a
medicine is best proved By its continued
use from year to year by the same persons
and families, as well as by a steady in
creasing sale. Few, if any, medicines have
met with such continued success and popu-
larity as has marked the introduction aud
progress of Brandreth's Pills, which, after
a trial of over fifty Years are conceded to
be the safest and most effective purgative
and blood purifier introduced to the public
That this is the rt suit of merit and that
Brandreth's Pills actually perform all that
is claimed for them, Is conclusively proved
by the fact that those who regard them
with the greatest favor are those who have
used them the longest.
Brandreth's Pills are sold in every drug
and medicine store, either plain or sugar
coated.
