Violating Sunday Law.

Some people living in st. Elmo and
Del Ray having complained to Common
wealth's Attorney Crandall Mackey Of
the action of certain rairoad'contractors
in working their steam shovelS and
gangs of men ON Sundays, that official
yesterday, accompanied by several county
officers, called the attention of Mr.. Ed
ward Purcell, who had charge of the
men and shovels, to the fact that the
Sunday law was being violated. Mr..
Purcell assured the officers that he was
not disposed to violate any law, and that
as soon as he finished certain work that
had been commenced and could not be
dropped then, he would cease operations,
and that in future be and his men would
refrain from violating the law. This
was satisfactory to all concerned, and
in future the shoyels will not be oPer-
ated on Sundays.
