OLD ENGLISH SUNDAY.
How the Day Was Observed Prior to
the English Revolution.

from the New York Evening Post
For considerable period prior to the
English revolution Sunday was n day of
great festivity and high revelry in the old
country. Incredible though it may appear
us observance was governed and ordered
by paradoxical royal declaration, issued
by King James I. This document is gen.
orally known as The Book of Sports" In
Its preamble it recites royal rebuke adj
ministered to some Puritanes and precise
people" for prohibiting o. unlawful pun
ishing of Our good people for using their
lawful Recreations and honest exercises
upon Sundayes and other holy days after
the aIternoone sermon or service and
then 1t refers to 1.-The general compIaint
OF our people, that they were barred from
all lawful Recreation and exercise upon
the Sundayes afternoons which cannot
put produce two evils: the one, the hinder
ing OF the conversion of many, whom their
priests will take occasion hereby to vexe
persuading them that no honest mirth or
recreation Is lawfully or tollerabe in our
religion, which cannot but breed a great
discontentment in peoples hearts; the
other inconvenience is that this prohibition
barreth the common and meaner sort of
people from using such exercises as NAV
make their bodies more able for Ware
when we or our successors shall have occa-
sion to use them
Then follows the royal mandate that no
lawful Recreation shall be barred to our
good People, and THE Bishop and all
other inferior Churchmen and Churchwar-
dens' are enJoined to bee CAREFUL and dill
fgent. both to instruct the ignorant and
convince and reforme them that are misled
in religion" Our pleasure likewise is.
That the Bishop of the Diocese take the
like straight order with all the Puritans
and Precfsians within the same either con-
straining them to conforme themselves or
to leave the country according to the Lawes
of Our Kingdome and Canons of our
Church." The declaration proceeds to de-
fine lawful Recreation" as Dancing,

Herewith used. But withall wee doe here

games to be used upon Sundays onely, as
Beare and Bull-baitfngs Interludes. and at
all times in the meaner sort of People by
Law prohibited Bowling" A penalty was
inflicted upon those who did mot join in the
Sunday sports. and no one could take part
In them without first having attended dr.
vine service in the parish church, which
was also enforced under pain of penalty.

ton onto the village green, there to indulge
in all kinds of lawful Recreation" While
the sports were going on 1t was the custom
for the parson and his church wardens to
retire to the adjoining inn.

Measurement of Heat.

Another tendency which may operate to
bring in electric heating is the comparative
ease with which it may be measured. In
the modern hotel, apartment house or office
building a very large percentage OF the
heat goes out Of the window, not In ventila-
ton, which is a justifable extravaganza,
but in sheer and objectionable waste. Inc
lodger on leaving his room In the morn
ing, throws the window wide open, with the
heat turned on in the hot-water radiators.
A zero temperature outside coming through
that open window hammers away on the
hot-water pipes. The coal stoker In the
basement is constantly firing in soft coal
to keep up the battle. If the janitor goes
into the dodgers room and closes the Win
dow the tenant takes offense, and most
people who deal with this question f1nd II
cheaper to heat up the outdoors, limited
only by the operation of the law Of the diff
fusion of gases, than to try to convince the
public of the truth Of the elementary prin-
ciples of calorics. The tenant believes that
the heat coursng through his pipes Is his
own property: he refuses to believe that he
is loading down the general heating plant
very heavily by all wasteful practices. rms
experience of which all persons who Crap
pie with the heating problem complain, Is
in considerable part responsible for the
rates Of rental which it is now necessary to
charge upon apartments and other places
where heat is free and unmeasured. and the
individual user is relieved Of the application

Electric heating permits Of accurate meas

to be sure, that the electric lighting COM
panies have more generally adopted fiat

have the gas men, but this is due to pecu-
liar conditions. Gas is stored In reser-

what the manufacturer of electric juice for

RECREANT OFFICIALS


HONOLULU, September 80, 1902.
Much public commotion was stirred last
week by two serious defalcations of public
officials one of whom is in prison, lacking
bail. The other and greater defaulter made
his escape The latter case was followed
by the governors suspension of the auditor
of the territory for alleged Irregularities,
adding to the tension of public feeling.
The first case was that of b. Haywood
Wright, chief clerk of the department of
public works, who had immediate charge
of the moneys of that office His defalca-
tons understood to be probably under
10000. Other parties may be involved.
The greater defaulter is William H. Wright,
treasurer of the territory. He was discov-
cred on the 23d instant to have taken SIS.
600 from Chinese fund, which was in his
immediate charge, other funds being
handled by the registrar. He absconded,
probably by steamer to the coast. Like
other chief officials, the treasurer
exempt from giving bonds.
The charges against the auditor, II. Z.
Austin. appear not to involve direct crim-
nality, but such imprOprleties may dis
qualify him. He has chosen to resist the
governors order of suspension. and is max
ing a vigorous defense. In a formal APP
however he confined himself to technical
objections to the governors power to
suspend him.
These successive developments have
caused much public alarm and some politi-
cal excitement. The senatorial commission
took the matter up for inquiry during their
last session. held on the 25th.
1t is due to Governor Dole to have the
fact clearly brought out that the most
prominent defaulter, Treasurer Wright was
not the governors choice for the office but
was appointed by him under strong con-
stralnt from the bitterly hostile senate.
Ihese native senators had refused to con-
nrm the governors previous appointee who
mad held the office for more than a wear

Elegantly COStumed Team TO

We're Accompanied BY Many
Warm Supporters

Salems Elks, 200 strong, boarded
the Albany local this morning for
Portland. In fact they took the train
by storm And It was certainly a
jovial throng. The drill team mum
bered SO, and was accompanied by a
large number of Elks and their lady
friends.
The Salem Elks went to Portland
with but a single object in view, and
that is the winning OF the first prize
in the competitive drill to be held this
afternoon between the different teams
of the Pacific Northwest. The Salem
team has been practicing long and
faithful. and are resolved to capture
first honors and will not give up until
the decision has been finally ren.
dered. So far as known when the 10.
cal team left the city this morning.
there will be four other teams that will
compete for the prize. They are from
Astoria. Seattle Tacoma and Ever.
EFT.
The Salem Elks wore probably the
richest costumes that we're ever seen
in this state in a similar drill. 1t was
of the Continental style: Knee breech-
es and waistcoat OF cream satine: coats
in three colors-Nile green. light blue,
pink and red with gold lace trimmings
and white lace ffchu; white stockings
black slippers, and white cooked hats,
The Salem boys were accompanied by
their own band of 10 pieces. The Sa.
