ters too far. The churches could not
successfully carry on a campaign to
stop Sunday base ball. as the games
are played outside of the city linn
its and there is no Colorado state
law against Sunday base ball
Some business men at the meet
ing last night stated that they had
been asked to close up one week day
afternoon on account of base ball
games and were perfectly willing to
do so; but, If the base ball players
engaged in a public parade on Sun
day afternoon, they thought the busi-
ness men should show their disap-
proval of such actions by refusing
to close on any week day afternoon
One of the speakers last night de-
clared that. If some church mem
bers would stop taking in the Sun
day afternoon ball games and be
more consistent in their religious
life, violations of Sabbath day obser-
vances could more effectively be dis
couraged.

The matter was brought up i'm
mediately following the regular pray
er service, and brought forth most
animated general discussion.
Following the discussion, a COM
niittee, - composed of Edwin Price
Miss Hope Taylor and William A.
Marsh, was appointed to draft set
OF resolutions condemning this par
ade as a fragrant act of disrespect
to the Sabbath day and calling upon
the people of the city who discourage
such action.
Some very interesting statements
were made by some of those who dis
cussed the matter at the meeting. 1t
was the opinion of all who had some
thing to say, that such a demonstra-
ton on the Sabbath day as would be
involved in the meeting of ball
team at the depot, filling up automo-
biles and wagons with the players
and their friends and with brass
band at the head move along through
the main streets of the city, would be
a dlscredit to the town and the COM
munity and should be condemned
and deplored.
Not particularly was the discus
sion last night directed against Sun
day base ball, which, however, was
not endorsed in any sense, but it
was directed against the parade feat

are inclined to be liberal to some eX-
