Sunday and tho Sabbath.

The Princess EULALIA passed her first
Sunday in New York by going to church in
the morning. taking q drive In the Park In
the afternoon. and going to reception In
the evening. That in so doing she satisfied
Roman Catholic religious requirements was
proved by the presence Of Archbishop Cor
AIaAN at the reception. though it did not
differ from O work-day social function of
the kind.
That is. she gave tho day to worship to
rest and recreation. and to social enjoy
ment. Such Is tho Sunday routine OF the
great majority Of the religlously disposed
people OF New York at this time. Practi-
cally the Continental Sunday" has re-
placed the American Sabbath" in New
York. to use the terms OF the Sabbatarians {;
or. at least. the people do not feel under
any conscientious obligation to observe the
day as period OF ascetcism.
Actually nine out OF ten Of the inhabi-
tants Of Now York have the same notions
OF Sunday observance that the Princess
EULALIA has. Ofthe other tenth. perhaps q
tsnth part are Sabbatarans in practice.
The rest are Sabbatarians in theory only.
They may object to the Sunday customs Of
the great mass Of the people. but their own
are not essentially different. They them
selves make OF Sunday. for the most part.
9 day OF rest and OF enjoyment. They
spend, at the most. two or three hours In
church. and the rest OF the day tn ey use as
holiday.
The characteristic which chiefly distln-
guishes tho New York Sunday from the Con-
tinental European Sunday. is the general
closing OF places Of business. 1t Is here
more day Of rest from labor. though In
Europe the popular demand for the discon-
tinuance OF Sunday labor Is increasing. In
every country the desire is expressed that
Sunday shall be moro of holiday: but
Sabbatarianlsm Is not extending either
there or here 1t has almost ceased to exist
even In the land OF tho Puritans itself
Throughout New England. Sunday is be-
coming day Of pleasure. and less OF re-
bgious devotion.
In New York the public amusements Of
tho theatres usually cease altogether ON
Sunday. but OF late years. in some cases,
they simply undergo q transformation Pc
culiar to the day. The Sunday concerts arc
the most crowded OF the week Nomlnally.
the drinking places are closed: practically.
! they have always been open. Moro people
60 to the Central Park ON that day than on
any other. Private entertainments. more
commonly dinner parties. are numerous.
The sun., 1893-06-01

and social intercourse generally is encour-
aged by the leisure OF the day, instead OF
stopped by its religious character.
Hence tho Princess EULALIA. In following
European custom last Sunday. did not vio-
late American custom rs IL Is in reality.
She kept the day essentially as pious Amer
leans Of this tltno keep 1t. In passing from
church to recreation and social enjoyment.
She introduced no innovation into the local
practice. and the Catholic Church did not
depart from the habits Of the majority of
the people, in closing the day with festivity.
The markets on Saturday are crowded with
housewives laying in supplies for the Sun
day dinner. which Is the great dinner OF the
week with most OF tho inhabitants, includ-
ing those who are punctilious in attending
to their religious duties in the morning.
The Presbyterian General Assembly Is
perfunctively on tho side OF Sabbatarian-
ism. but really the Observance OF Sunday Is
about the same among Presbyterians MS
among Roman Catholics. They do not keep
II as fast day, after the manner of the old
Puritans. but seek to enliven Its hours with
innocent recreation. In every religious de-
nomination, Sabbatarianism Is passing
away. The word remains. but the thing has
almost disappeared In actual practice IN
every part of this country; and similar
change is taking placein England. Sunday
social functions, once reprehended in Lon
don. are now frequent.
Thus all Christendom. Catholic and Prot
estant. is tending to uniformity In Sunday
observance. The so-called Continental Sum
day is becoming more day OF rest, at the
demand Of labor as expressed in legislation;
and the American Sabbath. 30 called. Is
giving place to n Sunday holiday for both
religious exercise and social recreation and
enjoyment. The dlstinctively Puritan Sab
bath has gone.
