In pursuance of a request signed by Rev. Dr. John H. Elliott, Rev. Gilbert F. Will- jams and Messrs. Henry B. Pellew, George A. Woodward, Charles King, W. A. Meloy, W. A. Gordon and W. P. Young, a commit- tee represer ting the Churchman’s League of the diocese of Washington, a meeting, to which all the -hurches of the District have been invited to send members, will be held tonight at Willard Hall for the purpose of considering the following proposed bill for the better observance of Sunday: “It shall not be lawful for any person to keep opea any place of business, nor main- tain a stand for the sale of any article or articles of profit during Sunday, excepting apothecaries, for the dispensing of medi- cine and undertakers, for the purpose of providing for the dead, or others for the purposes of charity or necessity; nor shall any public playing of foot ball or base ball or any other kind of playing, sports, pas- times or diversions disturbing the peace and quiet of the day be practiced by any person or persons within the District of Columbia on Sunday; ard for any violation of this act the person offending shall for each offerze be liable to a fine of not less than $ nor more than $3.” This bill has been adopted provisionally by the Icague, but it is proposed to submit it to the meeting as a suggestion for dis- cussion and amendment. So far as it reg- ulates the sale of articles on Sunday, it re- peats v hat was enforced as law in this city from December, 1864, until July 5, 188%, when, in the case of Standiford, the court decided that it was invalid, for the techni- cal reason that it had not received a sig- nature required by law. It is understood that the movement which it is proposed to inaugurate tonight has the hearty sympathy and support of the Presbyterial Association of Washing- ton and vicinity, and that Sunday next the Presbyterian ministers in the District will preach on the theme, “The Social Aspect of the Proper Observance of the Sabbath.” ———— A Church Anniversary. The week’s services in connection with the celebration of the fifteenth anniversary of the Israel Baptist Church were brought to a close last evening.

The Israel Baptist Church is located on 11th street between F and G streets, and athough rmall, it has a large and growing congrega- tion. The present pastor is the Rev. W. H. Johnson, one of the best-known colored clergymen here.
