Sunday in Boston.
‘lBoston appears to have made up its
mind to have quiet Sundays—not the
quiet of the colonial era, or even of
fifty years ago, but as much of ’ restful
quietude as is consistent with the
changed conditions of these days. The
'Police Commissioners of the New
England metrOpolis are not seeking
notoriety by blatant professions of re-
form. They seem willing to let the
head ofthe New York Police Depart-
mentmonopolize that method of bring-_
ing in thégfiléhinium. Being modest
menond common-sensible officials they
do not damage their gastric anatomy
by straining at goats and swallowing.
camels, but go to work in a practical
way to reform abuses. .
There was complaint of too ’much
Sunday work in Boston. The congre-
gation of a cbnrchiu that city madei
complaint that on a recent Sunday,.,the.
voice of the pastor in prayer was
drowned, so far, at least, as human cars
were concerned, by the shrill whistles
and hoarse cries Of workmen—mechanics
and laborers—engaged on work that
might just as well‘have been postponed,
to Monday. This congregation mildly
protested against the mingling of the
clutter of rattling chains with the music
of theirs-heir; and they ventured the
suggestion that the dingdvong of ham-
mers did not blend harmoniously with
the notes of theirsoprano soloist. One
of the "complainants :went so far as to
remark that even a bass or baritone
solo could not be improved by a nail-
hammcring accompaniment.
The Police Commissioners gave re-
spectful attention to the pastor, the
elders, and the choirmaster, and, also,
to other citizens whcse Sunday devo-
tions had been rudely broken in upon
by the turmoil of trade. And when all
the grievances had been duly consider-
ed,‘th-3 Commissioners decided that re-
form must begin forthwith. They have
laid down the rule-as we see it stated
in a Boston paper—that only such labor
as is necessary on Sunday shall be al-
lowed on that day, while labor that is
merely convenient on the first. day of
, the week shall be forbidden. This, we
are assured is practically the position
taken by the courts, so that the decree
of the Commissioners is simply a doc
laration that the law must be enforced.
WhetherYt-his change of policy will
continue to meet the approval Of the
peOple of Boston will depend largely
on the discretion of the police and the
magistrates. It is believed that a. ma-
fijori'tyof the people of that city——and
much more than a majority of brains
11nd character—«are in favor of a quiet
Sunday} But. they ’will not uphold
fanaticism, nor will they tolerate the
'cx‘hau’stIOn‘of'all the energies and re-
cources of the police force in a single
direction. ‘ If felonies multiply while
"the police are devoting themselves to
the Sunday law, as is the. case in New
York, the Boston rcfo’rm will not long
have that support withcut which no
rlcformatory effort can succeed.

- Mr. Cleveland’s Denials.
' Although written as a private com-
munication, President Cleveland’s let-
;ter to Senator Caffery, under date of
‘ last Sunday in reference to the bond
issue, since announced, must be re-
~ ‘gardcd as a public document and as a
’semiéofliciul defense of the admistration
from the charge that there is or has
,_ been an understanding between the
Treasury ,l)epartmcnt and the, New
" Yo’rk syndicateof bankers.
,. ' the English langutge can go, this let-
. _.ter contains aflat and unequivocal. de-
"nial of the assertion that Mr. Morgan
or anyotherbanker or financier has
" becn'token intopthe confidence of the
Treasury Department in the matter of
_. saibond issue... The President, however,

serve have anxiously conferred with
each Other, and, as occasion permitted:
with those having knowledge of finan,
cial affairs and present monetary condi-
tions, as to the best and most favorable
means of selling bonds for gold.” To
the suspicious mind this might leave a
loop-hole, but for the unqualifird de-
nials contained in the early part of ' the
letter. It is notable that the President
declared that the administration has “a
decided leaning ” toward a. popular
loan, and to the friends of such a mea-
sure of finance this should be reassur-
ing. Incidentally, the President makes
an inferential defense of the secret is-
sue of last February by drawing. a
comparison between the state of the
gold reserve now and at that time, thus
implying that the private arrangement
with the Morgan syndicate in 1895 was
the result. of necessitous conditions that
do not now exist.
Tickets Draw Interest.
A ticket to hear Will Carleton draws
interest from the start; because a seat
goes with it, and these are sometimes

The Boston Store.
The Boston Storebegan this morn-
ing the greatest sale of dry goods ever
known. We can imagine the courteous
proprietors as they hustle about have a
feeling akin to the western merchant
who said, “ Howl! you bedizzend com-
petitors! Howl as the wintry blasts of
our four aggressive and price-shatter—
ing competition whistles about your
ears, making merry music for our cus~
tomers, while it gently waves the hoary
whiskers growing on your aged time-
honored moss-covered and most un-
fashionable odds, ends and wormoeaten
stock.‘ All other bargain ‘sales by
whomever offered are simply pigmies
in comparison to this.”
Will Carleton.
Says one of Will Carleton’s famous
poems, referring to Elder Lamb, in
that wonderful epic, “Elder Lamb’s
Donation.” The same thing has been
said of Carleton himself. Many a
clergyman has come upon the platform
after he was through, arid said to him.
“You preach a' better sermon than I
can.” And the queerest thing‘is that
all through the evening, Carleton had
been making his audience laugh them-
selves faint—~except when they were
crying. Every thing he says or reads
carries a moral, without being “pokey,”
and as one good deacon expressed it,
“leaves a good taste in the mouth.”
You can see and hear for yourselves, on
Friday evening January 17‘ at Hoyt’s
Theatre. Seats are going rapidly.
Buy some; they cost only the bare price
of admission, and will be good proper-
ty. ’ -

Dcserved Honor.-
Rev. Father Jeremiah Duggan, as-
sistant rector of St. Mary’s parish at
Norwalk, received notice from Bishop
Tierney of his transference to St. Pat-
rick'srpurish in New Haven.‘ While
Father Duggan’d promotion is a high
and deserved" honor to him the news of
the change will no doubt be received in
the form of a. surprise and universal
’ regret by the members of St. Aloysius
church here as well as in Norwalk.
Father Duggan is .a man similar to
Father Slocum andxwho commands
sincere friendship with all whom he be-
comes acquainted ,with and is sure to
make .warm friends with the people
among whom be Is to “mingle. The

The County Commissioners to
7 Present Evidence Against
the Granting of a
.~ License,
The Short Calendar (luickly Disposed 0f
. _—.-_T
The short calendar list in the Super-
ior Court yesterday was not very long.
The famous Porter vs. Ritch case came
up but was continued for one week. '
The motion of the County Commis-
sioners through their council, Allen W.
Paige, to be allowed to appear in oppo-
sition to the appeal of Margaret Barnes
of this city, from the commissioners’
refusal to grant her a license, gave
Judge Wheeler a chance to lay down
some excellent law in giving his decis-
ion favorable to the board.
The conditions under which the ap—
peal is brought are different than
any that have appeared since the law
was passed in 1893. Under this law
when an appeal is taken the remon-
strants must appear in opposition and
the county commissioners are not par-
ties to it. But in this instance there
was no remonstrance, the commission-
ers refusing to grant the license on
their own direction. They believed
that the woman and her father, John
Tuhey, who is the real applicant, are
not proper persons to ' have a license.
The. law allows them the right to dis-
criminate and they exercised it.
Attorney Paige presented the case
and spoke briefly for the commission-
ers. Attorney Gray represented the
appellant and opposed the motion. He
claimed that the commissiOners in giv-
ing the decision acted entirely ex parts
and he thought it should come up to
this court the same way. ~-
Judgc Wheeler said ordinarily the
county commissioners could not appear
in a case of this kind as it was in the na
ture of an effort to sustrin their own
decision. Aboutayear ago in an ap-
peal which came before him in New
Haven he had decided-that the commie:
sioners could not appear. The law
rested the matterentirely with the re-
monstrauts. *
But in this case, continued Judge
Wheeler, there Was some difference.
There were no remonslrants and if the
case came before him as it was the only
evidence before the court would be
such as the appellant would Offer.
Judgi Wheeler was of the opinion that
the interest of the public would suffer
in such a case. He understood that
the commissioners had evidence which
induced them to refuse to grant the
license and he thought that they should
haves. chance to present it. He thought
that the exception might safely be made
in this instance, not in order that
the commissioners might maintain
their decision, but that the public in-
terest should not suffer.
The county commissioners, accord-
ingly will appear and give the court the
evidence which induced them to refuse
the license. It is understood that it
will be very interesting.
In the assignment of cases for trial
next week are those of John Graham, vs.
Horace L. Hubbell‘; Giovnni Fangilli
vs. David M. Platl; Village of Chester
vs. Francis Leonard, et 111.; William
M. Terry 8:. CO. vs. Lewis Lockwood;
The Norwalk Tramway Co. vs. the

His Boy Taken Away.
Sound Beach is being treated to a
anneal-ion in the shape of what some of
the inhabitants call a kidnapping ease.
Alvah Jones, fifty or sixty years old,
has a boy, Ira, between six and seven
years of age, who has been committed
to the County Childrens Home in this
city. J udgc Archer of Greenwich made
the commiltment last April, upon
charges preferred by Willie Jones, an
elder son of Alvah and a half-brother of
the lad, who claimed that the boy was.
abused and not properly clothed or fed.
In June, the father got the boy out
through the aid of E. S. Holly and Miss
Walsh of Stamford, but the boy was
again taken to the Home, Oct. 4, by
Deputy Sherifi' Fitzroy, being taken
from school. Since that time. the peo-
ple of Sound Beach have taken'the mat-
ter up and have determined to release
the boy, if they have to get out a writ
‘of habeas corpus.
Forty-three people, including the
pastors of two churches, have signed a
petition asking for the boys’ release
from the Home, which they will pre-.
sent to the County Commissioners.

In the Beginning,
Of a new year, when the winter season
of close confinement is only half gone,
many find that their health begins to
break down, that the least exposure
threatens sickness. It is then as well
as at all other times, and with people
even in good health, should be remem-
bored, namely: that Hood’s Sarsapa-
rllla leads everything in the way of
medicines; that' it accomplishes the
greatest cures in the world; has. the
largest sale in the world, and requires
the largest building in the world de-
voted exclusively tc the preparation ,of
the proprietary medicine. Does this
not 'conclusively prove, if you are sick,
, that Hood’s Sarsaparilla is the mediy
cine for you to take?

An Interesting Talk. " .
The Waterbury American devotes
nearly two columns of its Space to a re-
port of the lecture delivered in that
city Thursday night, by Rev. w. J.
Slocum who for many years was in
charge of St. Mary’s parish, this city.
Amongfiother things it says:
“Although last night was anything
but pleasant, 300 to 400 people breasted
the storm to hear the Rev. W. J. 810.
cum’s lecture on “ Reminiscences of
the late War,” delivered under the au-
spices Of Wadham's post, G. A. R.
There is no question but that_those who
were there were very glad Of it, for
seldom has such an interesting talk
been given in’ Waterbury. Though
Father Slocum spoke in ‘a pleasant and
easy way and 'made no attempt at the
grandly eloquent, his treatment of the
American soldier and the» subject of
Americal patriotism was time and ‘time
again interrupted with applause, and
so high was the enthusiasm at the con-
clusion that he was given three rousing
cheers and a tiger.”' '

in favor of the X's-enactment of the
McKinley tariff. He denounced the

the New England manufacturers and

The New York Tribune’s broad col
umns cud large print make it the easiest
paper In the country to read, either. on...
the cars or at home.
Henry Romeike, proprietor Of the
the world. testifies in a' published card. '
that his clippingsfor over 4,000 clients
show that the“'l‘ribnne' contains “day
by. day and week by week, far more
original matter than any daily news
paper In New York City.” He moves
the fact by figures. The weekly ranks

paper In New YOrk City whose report-
ers actually visit all the markets in per-

literary character, The Tribune main-
‘fllLlS a splendid position- in regard of
Republicans and lovers of music, art,
and good'books.
_ '1 he Tribune’s society news is known
everywhere for excellence. Its fashions
have always been of special value. and
changes of style are, as a rule, foretold
ill The I‘ribune sooner than in other
newspapers.
lhe New York Tribune is recognized.
officlally, as the leading newspaper of
the Republican party.
As for Farming and Labor, The Trié
bune has for 50 years demanded, and
vehdemands, that every possible dol-
lar 3 worth of "food and commodities,
consumed by the American people
shall be produced by the American
people: For this cause, The Tribune
laborsmits various editions 365 days
111 every yecrr. .
A man '18 Judged by the newspaper he
takes; He who reads the Tribune is
w1uc_-_,awake, progressive, respectable
and capable, worthy of the confidence
of busmess and social friends. If you
ire-a young man, you will live in a. rut
sllyour life (except by entering to that
w.h1ch1s base) if you feed your mind
upon newspapers, full of scandal, vul-
garity and inanity. Think fora mo—
ment of the people who read newspapers
ofthat class. On theother hand, the
tribune has probably the largest clien-
tele of the very people who can help to
improve a young man’s position, of
any newspaper in the United States.
Assoc1ate yourself with them.
