SUNDAY OBSERVANCE.
An Appeal to the Christians For a Better
Sunday Observance.

Sunday Observance.
In making an appeal to the chris
tians of this community for a better
Sunday observance, the association
here represented has in view the sole
object Of pursuading men and women
to arise to the high privilege which is
theirs to enjoy. Every observer Of
the course of events can mark the
general tendency of the times toward
a loose observance Of that Jaw upon
which is based the authority of the
Sabbath. This association does not
presume to dictate to any one his way
of thinking or living. In common
with all who aim for high ideals, we
claim but place with that great body
of citizens which form so large a part
OF society and whose desire is TO see
worked out in this country the highest
civilization our holy christianity can
can inspire in mems lives.
Every one who loves Christ has e'er
this observed with sorrow the many
ways in which the Sabbath day and
the Sabbath laws are desecrated. To
this body OF believers the association
makes the appeal. We believe you
desire properly observed Sabbath
rs well as we 10 TO accomplish this
greatly desired result will require the
best efforts and most hearty cooper
alton Of all those WHO love the Master.
We appeal to you to unite with this
association in its work of trying TO
build up in this community a fuller
appreciation Of Gods laws regarding
the keeping of the Sabbath, We APP
peal to you to try in every way and
fulfil in both letter and spirit God 5
commandment to remember the Sab
bath day and keep it holy. We APP
peal TO YOU to abstain in every way
from all unnecessary buying; to avoid
all indulgences now so commonly
sought by many. Let these give place
to Christ's way to deny ourselves
daily. Let us bear in mind that
whenever indulgences are practiced
that someone must labor to supply
them and thus is forced to violate
Gods command to keep holy one day
in seven
II We hope to preserve to coming
generations the Sabbath day with all
its blessings for mankind both ply
sically and spiritually we must sur
round its sacredness with the best
efforts Of our lives to teach to all
whatever God says regarding its OBJ
seryance. Let us ever bear in mind
that this day originated with God;
was blest to him and hallowed by him.
Let us also remember that Christ gave
TO all God had said concerning the
Sabbath his heartiest endorsement.
With these facts before US we APP
peal to all Christians to unite in this
work By so doing You will aid in
bringing to this community the great
est blessings a properly observed
Sabbath can accomplish

IN THE EYE OF THE DEAD.
A Murderer Left His Image to Lead
to the GalIoWS.

JAMESTOWN. n. Y, Dec. 20.-ohoto.
graphic science may have given the first
tangible clew TO the identity of the MUIR
derer of Mrs. Shearman and Mrs. Davis.
Several persons have been suspected ana
the clews followed up without success, but
to-day the impression Of the murderer has
been found on the retina Of Mrs. Shear
mans eye. The photograph was taken by
Fred D. Marsh. a local photographer, and
to him is due the credit of having origin
ated the idea of examining the organ. The
existence of the impression of the muir
derer on the eye was discovered by means
of powerful microscope. Unfortunately
the features of the man could not be seen,
as the view obtained shows only the back
and very little of the side. An appar-
emily big man is presented, with bushy
whiskers and wearing long overeoat
The trousers appear to be badly wrinkled.
The Coroner has taken out both of the
eyes Of the murdered woman, and another
photograph will be taken tomorrow by a
skilled photograp her. No impression was
discoverabIe in Mrs. Davis eyes.
