CHRISTIAN SABBATH.
Sunday Rest the Theme Of a Papar
by Cardinal Gibbons.
THE GOLDEN MEAN PRESCRIBED
How the Lords Day Should be
Observed-A Portion Of it May
be Given Over to Recreation.
It is the Great Day for Rejoic-
ing.

New YORK, JUne13.-"Sunday Rest"
is the theme of Cardinal Gibbons paper
to be read at the Congress Of Sabbath
observers at Chicago.
The paper has been received here by
the committee in charge. His Eminence
holds that the desecration OF the
Christian Sabbath is one OF our social
dangers against which 1t behooves US TO
set our face and TO take timely precau-
tionS before it assumes proportions TOO
formidable to be easily eradicated.
"a close observer cannot fail TO note
the dangerous inroads that have been
made on the Lords day in our country
within the last quarter of century.
L. these encroachments are not checked
in time the day may come when the
religious quiet, now happily reign
ing in our well ordered cities,
will be changed into noise and tur-
bulence, when the sound Of the church
bell will be drowned by the echo OF the
hammer and the draY, when theSBible
and the prayer book will be supplanted
by the newspaper and the magazine,
when the votaries OF the theatre and
the drinking saloon will OUtnumoer the
religious worshippers and saiutary
thoughts of God, OF eternity and OF the
soul will be checked by the cares OF
business and by the pleasures and dissi-
patton Of the world.
The Christian Sabbath is living wit
ness Of revelation, an abiding guardian
of Christianity. The summary closing
OF our civil tribunals would not en-
tail more disastrous injury on the
laws of the land than the closing OF
our Churches Weuld inflict on the Chris
tian religion. The institution OF the
Christian Sabbath has centri ibuted mere
to the peace and good order Of nations
than could be accomplished by standing
armies and the best organized police
force.
THE Christian Sunday is not to be
confounded with the Jewish or even
the Puritan Sabbath. II prescribes the
golden mean between rigid Sabbatarian-
ism on the one hand and lax indulgence
on the other.
"The Lords day to the Catholic heart
is always a day Of joy. The church de-
sires US on that day to be cheerful
without dissipation, grave and religious
without sadness aud melancholy, and as
it is a day consecrated not only to relig-
ion, but also 10 relaxation OF
mind and body she permits Us to spend
a portion Of 1t in innocent recreation.
In word, the true conception OF the
Lords day is expressed in the words OF
the PSalmist: at is the day which the
Lord hath made; let US be glad and re-
joice therein"

PARKERsDURG, w. VA, June 1S.-
George Peen and George Oatmeal, the
two moonshiners, who were found
guilty In the U. S. Court yesterday, in-
stead Of receiving the ordinary sentence
OF thirty days and 500 foe, were each
sentenced 10 one year 10 the peniten-
tiary and Hned S10O. This heavy pen
atty was given the prisoners for wilfui
and deliberate perjury in their state
ments when on the stand.
Arthur Burdette, alias Mills, one OF
the gang Of counterfeiters captured
sometime since near Belleville by Capt.
jim Mehen, United States Detective
Webb and posse, a. which time mouIds,
counterfeit meney and metal In consid-
erable quantity was also found, was
brought into Court to-day. Through his
attorney, Burdette confessed,
and threw himself on the
clemency of the Court, Judge
jackson had the witnesses
called and the story Of the arrest of Bur
dette and the others all told, and then
took the matter under adyisement.
Burdette is 4 yonng married maR. He
is of first-rate family and has the repu-
tation of always having been honest
and upright until he fell in with the
gang Of couuterieiters! His sentence
will probably be as light as can be given
on account of his family and his former
good character.
Judge Jackson to-day ordered all OF
ex-Marshal Whites deputies 10 turn
over to Marshal VinsoA all OF the war
rants in their possession not executed,
and also directed United States Com,
missioner Thompson to withdraw all
papers and warrants not executed given
by him TO old deputies, and to turu the
same over to the new Marshal. In ad-
dltion the Judge said that there was
too much zeal on the part OF some Off
GERS to make fees, and what might be
termed rowing commissions given to
some Of the cid officers were too expen-
sive q business for the government to
aceuiesce 10.
w. w. Ritchie, Jacob and James Con-
nor, convicted OF burglary and robbery
by the Criminal Court, were taken to
Moundsvile by Sheriff Dudley to-
day. Frank Dils, who was convicted
OF rape, was to have been sentenced and
sent along with the others, but was too
i'll to be removed from jail.

The account was shown a member on

great Injustice 10 the President. DR..
Turner made no recommendation for
the dismissal Of any one. He did state

MoReANrowN, w. w June ID
The present dissention among the mem
bers Of the University faculty is Of old
standing, but the fght this year cslmi-
mated in a caustic correspondence be-
tween DR.. Turner and certain mem
bers OF the law department.
The Board Of Regents a year ago or
dered that every member OF the faculty
report on the first Of every May the
progress in his school. This DR.. Brooke
failed to do last May.
The president, upon this failure, sent
q notice to DR.. Brooke requesting re-
port. DR.. Brooke replied that he had
the honor to report that all necessary
for the law department was to be let
severely alone.
After very caustic correspondence
and a bitter interview, DR.. Brooke
made the above report.
This correspondence DR.. Turner In
corporated in his report TO the board, at
the same time, accusing Prof. Brooke
and Prof. w. P. Wiley with disrespect.
While the report was being read Prof.
Wiley, the Secretary Of the Board, ask
ed DR.. Turner Il be based his charges Of
disrespect upon the correspondence
alone, aud not on newspaper reports.
The president replied IN the atirma-
tive. when Prof. Wiley remarked that
his correspondence would speak for
itself. The report went on 10 recite
that Prof. Davenport had asked that
certain part OF his wOok be transferred
10 another Professor. For this reason,
the president charged that professor
with incOmpetency and undtnesS.
After the reading Of the report, the
board appointed q committee, composed
Of Smith, Brown, FranSwOrth, Bennett
and SOmerville, 20 take action on the
report and bring IN suggestions for the
board 10 take final action upon.
At their meeting at 10 o'clock this
morning an members of the board were
present, aud most Of the Presidents
recommendations we're adopted.
Other routine matters were acted
upon, and the board adjourned until
this afternoon.
At the afternoon session resolution
requiring students hereafter 60 pay 50
each for their diplomas was passed.

HUNTINGTON, w. VA, June 13.-New

The, WORST IS PAST.
The Financial Situation From a Treasury
Standpoint Is Improved.

Standpoint Is Improved.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., June l3.-The
financial condition OF the country as
viewed from a Treasury standpoint,
shows general Improvement. Bank and
commercial failures are fewer, Europe
is buying our grain in greater QuGnti-
ties, gold shipments have ceased, at
least for the present, confidence is be-
ing restored and money is not so tight.
The treasury net gold has increased
from $50, 600, 600 TO sol, 800, 600 and the
demand for small money in the west
will have the effect of further increasing
the treasury gold. The rate of ex
change is sufficiently high to warrant
the shipment of gold abread, but the
fact that commercial paper is for sale in
London has a deterrent effect.
There is q general feeling that the
worst is passed, the weaker financial
institutions and business firms having
succumbed, while those that passed
through so far unScsthed, ARE stronger
for having weathered the financial
storm.
