ELOQUENT ADDRESSES BY REPRESENTATIVE DING- LEY, THE CHAIRMAN, REPRESENTATIVES MORSE, LEWMm, J.D. TAYLOR AND OTHERA—THE SECRE- TARY'S REPORT OF THE GOOD WoRK. A large andience attended the celebration of the fifty-seventh anniversary of the Congres sional Temperance Society, which was held inst evening at the Garfield Memorisl Christian Church. Congress was mainly represented by those members who sat on the platform. Hon. Nelson A. Dingley, member of the House from Maine, the president of the society, presided and made an address. He said that for fifty- seven years the society had been carrying on its work at the capital city. The modern tem- Perance movement, he said, was only about 100 years old, and for more than half that period the Congressional Temperance Society had kept floating the national flag as the symbol of the world-wide work in which it in 4 He thought that if the condition of affairs fifty en years ago in respect alone to the ques- and a little Pear/ine, and you have the best preparation in the world for washing and ee It will do everything except harm.

Then it was moderation. The speaker quoted Vice President Wilson, one of the presi- dents of the society, who said that in the early days all that was required by members was mod- eration in drinking, and be said that this policy was pursued until they found that the society was dying from intemperance, then an advance Was made from moderation to total abstinence. ‘The speaker referred to the original package law ynd said thet Congress for the first time in ; its history had enacted a pa oe = | beginning of temperance tion.

He stated that forty members of the present Congress were mem- bers of the society. He spoke of the measures which mentioned the bill to probibit the sale of in- toxicating liquors in the District, which had been introduced by the president of the society. He also referred to the bill, which became a law, introduced by Representative J. D. Taylor of Ohio, one of the vice presidents, to put a stop to the sale of cigarettes to boys. He spoke of the query found in the question box at the woman s temperance meeting which asked how Congress should be reformed. The person in charge of the question box disposed of it with ‘the remark that she was there to answer ques- tions and not conundrums. The speaker said that be would answer the question by advising {hem to join the Congressional, Temperance Society. Referring to the implied slur on Congress, the chairman observed that there had never been so many temperance people in Congress as there were toda: REPKESENTATIVE MORSE'S ADDRESS.

The enemy were finally Tonted at the wells of Teb on February 29 and at Tamanieb on March 13. Since then,however, Osman Digna has kept the British troops prac- tically at bay around Suakim, causing an im- mense expenditure of blood and treasure. In September, 188%,he laid formal siege to Suakim, which was defended by a force of British an a troops, 6,500 strong, under command of ‘ir Francis Grenfell. ‘The siege con- tinued until Deoomber 20, when the dervish force was finally routed ‘with a loss of 400 killed. . In February, 1889, the dervishes aba: doned Handoub, eight miles north of Sualim ‘and a few miles inland from the Ked sea, and abandoned all direct operations against BEAT THEM TO THE FARE. Later in the year, however, Gen. Grenfell marched against the dervishes and made an effort to drive them out of upper Egypt. After several skirmishes, in which the Egyptian troops were Gen.

About the ‘mladie of the | sammer Osman Digna returned to Tokar, and in the fall made preparations to again attack 8 His force, however, was seriously demoralized, and he was unable to make any advance until after the beginning of the pres- ent year. ‘Toward the close of last month Gen. Grenfell resumed operations by driving the dervishes out of Handonb, and then made preparations for the advance southward, which resulted in the recapture of Tokar. OSMAN DIGNA’S CAREER. Osman Digna, the dervish leader, wLo seems to have a charmed life and has again made his escape from the scene of defeat, was the head of a once wealthy family of slave dealers which had been impoverished by the suppression of the slave trade in Egypt. He lived asa mer- chant in Berber, on the Nile, visiting various parts of the Soudan to buy merchandise. In ruly, 1888, he it letters from the mahdi to Egyptian officials and Arab shesks in the Suakim district. He then assumed a hostile at- titude and collected @ force with which he at- tacked Sinkat in August of that year. but was repelled with a loss of eighty men. This defeat nearly destroyed the in: he had gained over the Arab tribes, causing his adberents to fall away to about seventy-five, until, in Octo- ber following, he almost annihilated two com- panies of Egyptian troops under Maj, Mo- mmed Khii in a defile between Suakim and Sinkat, After this his prestige, enlanced by several victories, increased until he was the master of all the resources of the eastern Soudan and commander of a formidable army. Hie operations since then have been narrated above. He is described asa man of herculean stature, with eyes of piercing blackness, shaggy eyebrows and an immense beard. He has lost his left arm in battle and contents himself with as few as three wives, who, wer, are daughters of the chiefs of the most important and powerful Arab tribes of the Soudan. OVER A HUNDRED DEAD, An Explosion Wrecks@ Coal Mine and Kills Many Miners. An explosion at the Spring Hill coal mines of Nova Scotia on Saturday afternoon wrecked the whole interior of the mine and caused the death of 117 persons. Most of the deaths are attributed to the black damp which filled the mine after the explosion. ‘To several families the affliction is very great. Reid Curter and his two sons, Willard and Clarence, are li dead. Three sons of the Car- micbael family are dead, John, Andrew and William. Jesse Armishaw went down No. 2 slope yesterday and found his three sons, Jesse, Herbert and John Brainbridge (ndopted son), all lying together. ‘The sight sickened and unnerved him so that he had ta return to the surface without them. | He was frantic with grief. ‘Two sons of Robert MeVey, under fourteen, are Inid out aide by side. ‘Hugh Bunt loses two bovs, Andrew and Alexander.

A fire broke out in the down-town flooded district Friday evening. An immense ware house belonging to the Smith Hardware Com- Pany, filled with lime, caught fire by being sub- merged. A number of adjoining residences were also burned down. ‘The Second National Bank, the Parkersburg National Bank, Judge Jackson's residence and other business prop- erty had narrow escapes. The firemen could not fight the fire owing to the flood. It was finally controlled late at night. Firemen stood for hours in water waist out the flames and remained at their posts all night, drenebed to the skin, to prevent any further breaking out of the fire. After a fall of five inches the rivers rose again Saturday to almost their former height, out they are now falling siowly. OUARDING THEIR HOMES. Steamboats plying up and down the rivers cause great waves to rush to the shore, sweep away valuable property nnd wash houses from their foundations and send the waves into the sleeping apartments of the distressed and mis- erable.

The ship Elizabeth of New York went ashore on the rocks at North Head. on the coast of Cal- | fornia, Saturday night.

The boat cap- sized, but the ywceupants were reseued by n tug. The captain and the rest of the vessel'screw were drowned. STORY OF THE waece.

Colcord lowered the boat to take his wife and children off. As the boat struck the water it capszed, throwin; three sailors, Jumes Laken, Ge mina an Grant Johnson, into the water. ‘They clung to the bottom of the boat and were picked up by the tug. The captain's family was then lowered in another boat and taken to the tug by the mate and two seamen. The boat returned to the ship and its occupants of the ship's crew. The tugs were unable to get near the ship and late at night returned to port, leaving the vessel to its fate. NOTHING LEFT OF TEE EX Tm. Early yesterday morning the tug went to the scene of the wreck and found nothing was left of the Elizabeth. ‘The Fort Point life-saving capt. Henry, started in a : ey we by the tug when Capt.
