court yesterday afternoon four BARRIERS
stepped forward to answer to the charge
of keeping their shops open on Sunday

accused Sunday shavers to the charge.
Three minutes after the jurors retired
for deliberation they filed back into the
court room with a verdict of mot
Guilty"
The prosecution was in behalf of the
association of BARRIERS who favor Sunday
closing and there was a large attendance
of BARRIERS in court. Each of the accused
BARRIERS was called upon by Mr.. Chamber
lain, their attorney, to take. the stand

health and comfort. Some amusement
was caused by Barber Price, who lost
no opportunity to impress upon all pres
dren to support and that it was neces-
sary for him to shave on Sunday to do
it. MIR. Chamberlain urged the uncon-
stitutlonality of the law: terming it class
unjust and pernicious one which made
man criminal for commit ing an act
in Rochester which he could do in Sara
The decision of Justice Brown of
Brooklyn, holding the law to be constd-

to the Consul's account he settled in

PARIS CHURCH BELLS.
When They Are Rung and i'm What
an lld-Fa shIOned Manner.

The ringing of the church bells in
Paris whether upon religious or civic
occasions. is regulated not by the church
authorities, but by those of the lay or
each reimbursement has the right to
make use of the bells of his precinct on
certain specified occasions, within the
restrictions of the general ministerial
edict controlling both the religious and
the civil ringings. The ecclesiastical au-
thorities are not premitted to ring their
bells before O'Clock in the morning Or
after in the evening", from Easter to
the thirty-first of October; nor before. 5
in the morning or after s in the evening,
from November 1 to Easter. The only
exception to this rule is Christmas night.
However owing not so much to these
restrictions as to the cost of ringing the
bells. particularly the chimes, these are
not heard nearly so often nor SO gen
orally in Paris as in some other cap
itaIs, notably Rome; and when the Par
isian chimes do sound. they are not
aIwavs to be commended for tune and
time. This, in its turn, may be at
tributed( to the old-fashioned method
Of banging and ringing the bells OF
Saint -Sulpice. These bells are not rung
bv means of ropes and levers, as is the
modern custom; they are so balanced
on their hangings that even the largest
can he set swinging by direct appHca-
;ty Of motion that the clapper strikes
wifi, sharp regularity, then Immediately
rebounds without deading the yibra-
tion Of sound. The largest bell OF SAINT
Sulpice WEIGHS six thousand Klos, or
upward of fifteen thousand pounds, ana
requires four men to ring it; the great
thousand k'1os. and requires eight men.

GOLD CERTIFICATES
ISSUED,

WASHINGTON, July 16. 1S95.-The
Treasury Department has resumed the
issue of gold certificates which have
been suspended during the period when
the Treasury gold reserve was below
100 million. Since June % last, when the
gold reserve again became intact, the
Treasury has issued about 100000 gold
certificates on gold presented mostly at
United States mints.
There are now outstanding $4S,376 900 in
gold certificates with $172,9S0 in the Treas
ury the remainder being in circulation.
Gold certificates are regarded as the most
convenient form of gold money and
most of these certificates are held by Ma
tional banks as part of their lawful re-
serve.
Silver certificates are in circulation to
the almost complete exclusion of the sill
yer dollars, as the general public appears
to prefer coin representatives to the coin
itself Only 52,0O00O0 of silver dollars are
in circulation, whereas more than eight
times that amount of silver certificate
are in daily use, the silver in bullioA
being stored in the vaults of the Treas
ury.
