might ask what purpose God had in giving
this special day to Just that one little ma
ton when there were Others larger b
they. lshould reply, because God wanted
to use them as a type. Paul declares that
everything done through them was for
types and shadows OF things to come. So
this Sabbath was only O type of the great
mllennlal Sabbath that was to come, and
when the Lord Jesus had finished all the
types and shadows under the law covenant
this Sabbath ordinance was also flushed.

In the course of an editorial sustaining
the Dony movement in this city the Car
bondale Herald says: 1.-THE latest effort to
avoid the enforcement Of tho Sunday laws
in Scranton is to confess the violation and
pay the fine, receiving half the fine for
making the information. This Is Il sharp
trick and in the end it will not pay. While
the law may be evaded by q technicality,
and we are not sure that it can be, the
moral sense Of the community will make
it a costly experiment. The decent law
abiding citizens will not patronize the
man who makes himself q criminal. This
country has no sympathy with anarchy,
and the man Who violates one law because
1t does not suit his convenience will vic.
late another. This nation needs to be
taught a higher regard for law. The Sab
bath Is a divine institution and its sane
tity has been decreed by American law.
We need one day In seven for rest and
to allow humanizing influences Of religion
to take hold uponus. He who tolls seven
days in u week becomes too much like a
beast of burden. No man has so much Mt
stake In this matter as the toiler. He will
find when it is too late that IL the Ameri-
can Sabbath be destroyed it will be an in
crease of toll with no increase of wages.
In nearly every branch of labor we can
now make more than we can consume. If We
increase our production one-sixth, and that
is what Sabbath destruction means, how
shall we increase Il consumption in the
same ratiOy'

WHAT IS needed in some places is a
sentiment that will not regard the
breaking Of students noses and the
promiscuous hurting Of beer bottles as
necessary punctuation marks in the
progress of higher education. A COL
legian ought not to be discredited at
school because he refuses to give up
being q gentleman, as well.

WI LIKE the tone of this paragraph
In the astaemed Carhondala LEADER.

WE LIKE the tone OF THIS paragraph
in the esteemed Carbonate Leader:
Newspaper conductors have always
found it difficult to convince writers for
their columns Of tho good effect of signing
such contributions with their proper
names. The name of n reputable citizen
to a communication on q public subject,
involving the safety of the community, is
always in order, and no good man should
for a moment hesitate 10 subscribe HIM
self. This course fearlessly pursued will
sooner crystalize a sound public opinion
than can be possibly called out by columns
OF anonymous writing on public matters
Of every kind. 1t is the fault of good citi-
zens that the columns of all newspapers
do not contain more communications
signed in this way, and 1t is to be hoped
that the time is not far distant when good
men will see the effect Of, making their
needs and their wishes known in this way.
There is nothing SO credltable as a COM
munication in a newspaper on a proper
public subject, signed by the full name of
the writer.
So far as The TRIBUNE is concerned,
it will not print anything that a corre-
s%pondent is ashamed to stand sponsor
for, 1t is m injustice to a newspaper
to expect it to stand the brunt Of the
opinions Of a contributor who is him
self too much afraid to acknowledge
them publicly.

EDITOR OF THE TRIBUNE.
Dear Sir-Neither the Babylonians nor
any other Gentle nation were ever com.
manded by God TO keep the Sabbath day
holy, can mud no other people than this
people, the Jews, that were ever com.
manded to keep it holy. The first time
that | can find in the scriptures any hint
whatever Of the Sabbath being bound
upon mar Is at Mount Sinai, where Moses
gave the children Of Israel the law. In
Exodus, XVI, %, we find the first com
mand that was ever given to man to keep
the Sabbath day holy.
In the t~wenty-ninth verse of the same
chapter He says; See for that the Lord
hath given you the Sabbath speaking

BROKE into A PUBLIC POUND.
That Is the Charge Against
Cartwill and Asche.
SIX Impounded Cows, Claimed by
tho Former, Taken.

Edward p. Asche, of Old South road,
Woodhaven, and his father-in-law. John
Cartwill, of Enfield street and New Lots
road, Brooklyn, were arraigned in the
Gates Avenue Court this morning
charged with breaking into the public
pound.
1t appears that some days ago six
cows were found at large In East New
York, and were taken in charge by the
police, who delivered them to Pound
keeper Harry Smith at the East New
York pound, on Miller avenue. near Lib
erty avenue. The cows were subse-
qrently claimed by Cartwill.
Thursday night the pound was broken
open, although 1t is situated directly
across the street from Liberty avenue
police station. and the cows taken
away. Yesterday morning Mr.: Cartwill
appeared and again demanded his cattle.
He seemed to think the robbery big
Joke on the police. and told the Ser
geant at the desk that IL he was not
careful the horses of the mounted suqad
would be stolen from the station itself:
His levity aroused the suspicious OF
the police, and Detective Carney sue
ceeded in locating the missing cattle on
the farm Of Cartwill's son-in-law, Asche.
Both were arrested and taken to court
this morning. They pleaded not guilty
and were parol.ed by Justice Steers in
the custody of their counsel.
