SUNDAY CLOSING WAR IN
PROSPECT
Manager of Empress
Theatre is Arrested

There is at present a prospect of one
of those periodical Sunday closing wars
in this city which occur from time to
time in many places as result of the
enforcement of part of the so-called
blue laws" against the keeping open
of places of business on Sundays.
The prospective trouble grew out of
the arrest on Monday of Thomas
o 'Donnel manager of the Empress
Theatre on the charge of keeping his
theatre open last Sunday evening.
There is no denial Of the fact that the
Empress was kept open on Sunday
evening; in fact the management of the
theatre openly advertised the opening
Of the place and a large audience was
in attendance. No admission was
charged, each patron being allowed to
give what they wished or nothing if
they saw fit. The pictures shown were
of religious nature.
On Monday Mr.. O'Donnell owner and
manager of the theatre was arrested
on warrant sworn out by Marshall
Nick Frank charging him with keep
ing his place of business open on Sun
day contrary to law. Mr.. O'Donnell
appeared before Judge Shea and asked
for jury trial and the case was con-
tinued until the 9th.
At the0time he appeared before
Judge Shea, Mr.. O'DonneI asked the
colrt as to the scope of the blue laws,
asking if they did not forbid the keep
ing open Of candy stores, livery stables
the running Of street ca IS and the cen.
ducting-of other business on Sunday,
as well as places of amusement, and of
course, was informed that they did,
from which it is Inferred that the man
ager of the Empress has it in mind to
compel strict enforcement Of the Sun
day closing laws in the city. in case he
is not allowed to keep his theatre pen
on Sunday, and there is no doubt that
he can do this if he sees fit
There is a great difference Of opin-
ion among our people regarding the
keeping open of places of amusement
on Sundays, some contending that the
theatre should be allowed to run here,
as they are in great number Of cities
in the state, that a person who is com
PEELED to work every day in the N,eek
is entitled to have a place of amuse-
ment to which he may 90 on Sundays,
while others declare that the opening
of the theatre on Sundays would lead
to the opening Of the pool rooms. bowl
ing alleys, which would be detriment
This matter of Sunday amusements
is one. which has caused much trouble
in many cities in the state and would
seem to be one which is governed large
ly by public sentiment. The legislature
seemed to realize this when a bill was
introduced providing for a referendum
on Sunday amuse nents in cities Of
over ten thousand population. which
bill, how ever was not passed. Iron

Richmond Experienced a Panic
in 1857; Due to Extravaganza

cars on incline plant, it is needful to
apply the brakes or run off the track.
Condemns Extravaganza.
The country has for years been Ia
vored wit habundant harvests and high
prices which has produced extraVa-
gance in building railroads and costly
buildings, together with expensive liv-
ing and dressing which altogether has
produced a large Indebtedness and de-
mand for payment has produced sud
den panic and suspension OF cash pay
ment. Such are the consequences OF
Over-trading and such suspension may
be treasured as blessing.
For a series of years of prosperity
will naturally lead US into eXtraVa-
gance and folly. The mind becomes
more and more worldly and finally
ceased to look to Him, from whom all
our strength comes and then vice
reigns triumphant, which now is al
most the case in our land. No inquiry
is made religious as TO our progress
in things divine because that subject
is completely obscured by the love OF
the mighty dollar. The earth in the
night Obscures the light OF the sun,
so the things in this world at this
time are between us and our God and
His mighty works are hid by the love
of money.

October 80, 1857-The Hicksite
yearly meeting closed it's session on
the first inst. The attendance was lar
ger than usual and the business before
the body was tremendously transacted.
In attendance was Samuel James from
Virginia, an eminent minister and an
able writer. He, a few years ago, was
incarcerated in one of the prisons OF
Virginia for too freely expressing him
self on the evils Of slavery but was
not, | think, fined for his love of lib
erty. The annual gathering of the Or
thOdox Friends commenced on the day
before yesterday. 1t is said that the
numbers in attendance is less than
heretofore though the number is large
This is the last general meeting at
this place "a division having been
agreed on last year and yearly meet

There are several Friends in attend

from England, who are gifted minis

Hold First Fair.
The Wayne county fair commenced
on the tWenty-ninth of September and
closed on yesterday. A very large at
tendance and a fine display OF live
stock and farming implements togeth-
er with the vegetable production of
this earth and creditable display of
flowers, fine paintings. The gathering
of such d host of so varied characters
aiming at different objects, generally
produces evil instead of good, and
even the evil and good placed on op-
posite scales the evil would cause the
good to kick the beam. But the great
object of the managers of these fairs
Is to make money and obtain a name
as patriotic spirits in the science of
agriculture.
Among the subjects of discussion at
this time the monetary comes in as
first in the first rank. Everybody
whether being the owner of a single

sons for the bank suspensions and ap-

Those who have lived only one-quar-

these smashes are evils they may be
said to be necessary evils. Like the

many may work equal wonders for you.
Use 1t a short time. Would you like
your eye troubles to disappear as If by

how quickly your eyes clear up and
how soon the inflammation will disap-
pear. Don't be afraid to use it; 1t Is
