The meeting held here was presided over by Mr.Thomas Dawson, with Wm. Proctor as secretary. The meeting was well attended and very harmonious, each member seeming to realize the importance of a thorough reorganization of the party in the state under such rules and regulations as will secure tranquility and banish party bickering, specially in Baltimore. The delegates selec ted from this district to the county convention are ‘Thomas Dawson and Kezin Offutt, with Samuel Soper. Frank Mace,Wm.H. Proctor and Horace Sedgwick as alternates. Easter services were observed here today in all the churches to large congregations. In St. Mary's Catholic Church high mass was cele- brated “by Rev. Father Hosensteel, and the ehurch was handsomely decorated with flowers and evergreens. Services were egein held in the afternoon, which were well attended. At the Protestant Episcopal Church the morning service was attended by a large congregation, who listened with marked attention to an able and timely sermon by Rev. A. 8. Johns, the regular pastor. The chancel was profusely decorated with choice potted and cut flowers and presented a beautiful appearance. The afternoon services were devoted to the children of the Sanday school, who acquitted them- selves in the best manner. ‘Ihey were formed into lina and macched down the center aisle singing an Easter ¢arol, accompanied by the mu.:2 of the organ. Here, after being seated. they also sang several other pieces appropriate to the occasion and were examined in the catechism of the church, to which they gave ready answers.

Semi-offcial organs in Germany are advised to ignore the renewed war alarm and not to no- tice reports coming from various sources which indicate early aggressive France and Russia. Persons high in official cir- cles in Germany refuse to say more than that the intentions of Russia toabandon her attitude of reserve has been for some time known to the chiefs of the Dreibund and that nothing can happen for which they are unprepared. The recent prediction of Signor Crispi, ex- Italian premier, that war was certain to occur daring the current year is considered indis- creet. It is believed in Bulgaria that the mur- der Friday of M. Baltscheff, Bulgarian minister of finance, is the opening of a game of secret intrigue preceding open conflict. FRANCO-RUSSIAN ALLIANCE. The czar Saturday decorated M. Briois, mili- tary attache of the French legation at St. Petersburg, personally presenting him with an order set with brilliants and also giving hima rare malachite vase and a portrait of himself and the ezarina. M. Briois will shortly return to Paris. He is fully conversant with Russia's projects for the mobilization of her forces, and upon his return to Paris come scheme for s- multancous action will be agreed upon French war office. It is for this pool § that the czar has conferred upon him a distinction never before accorded military attache. ‘Beiols an "French military attache at St. Petersburg, will con- tinue to arrange details for the mobilization. Gen. O'Broutchou bas declared that the un- ceasing rapidity of the Russian preparations | will enable the czar before the close of the present ycar to abandon his attitude of peace and to force any issue which he may deem nec- essary to obtain his ends.

Meantime the public enxicty in Germany is not great. Official watchfulness has been thor- oughly rearroused, but has not as yet created a strained interest among the people. The Vi- enna press, like thatof Germany, maintains un- usual reserve, while the statesmen on whom rests the fate of the Dreibund continue to af- fect to believe that no crisis is imminent. SOCIALISM IN THE Amaty. Besides the thought that Russia and France may be preparing for war, the German govern- ment is said to be very much stirred up over startling facts that have been disclosed in regard to the socialistic propaganda in the army. The military authorities have come into pos- igh a recent arrest, of evidence going to show that the social democracy has ading its doctrines through the ranks both of the army and navy, and has made proseiytes, and that the propagation among the troops is not confined aany, but is systematically carried on throughout Europe, with the exception of Russia, hat all the armies of western Europe are honeveombed with the subversive 3 of the piedzed enemies of established institutions. The Kaiser, it is stated, has given directions that the evils ehall be dealt with most so far as Germany is concerned, and y or soldier detected in pro epli the probibited opinions shall be punished wit the utmost severity. The information ascer- tained has also been sent to Austria, Belgium and Italy for the war offices in those countries to be on their guard. —— e+ —____ THE GALENA FLOATS AGAIN, Successful Efforts of the Tugs te Pull Her Off the Sand. ‘The United States steamer Galena was floated off Gay Head yesterday by steam tugs William § Slater, Confidence and Elsie, by the aid of the ship's anchor, which was carried out. The Galena arrived at Vineyard Haven in tow at 2 p.m. and lies alongside the wharf at the head of the harbor. The steam pumps were put aboard the Galena Friday night with the intention of making an effort to pump the water from the lower hold toenable the ammunition, &c., to be taken from the ship. When the pumps were set at work it was found that the ship could be readily pumped out, and it was then decided to endeavor tofloather. Everything movable was taken from the ship by lighters, and at high water Friday and Satarday tugs hauled on her, moving her a little at every attempt. Yesterday morning a fresh wind occasioned considerable sweli, ceusing the ship to rise and fall in her bed, thereby enabling the tugs to haul her aftoat.’ ‘The Galena leaked yesterday only about one and one-half inches per hour, which indicated that there were no holes in her bottom, which is probably only strained some- what. When ashore her bull was badly hogged, giving her the appearance of being ken in two, but since being fioated she has come back to nearly her proper proportions. Lieut. Com- mander George M. Pook, who has charge of the ship, is awaiting orders from the Navy Depart- ment at Washington, and until they are re- ceived it cannot be said what disposition will be made of the ship. ‘The work of floating United States tug Nina will commence at once. She lies in the same poeition as when she first stranded, and it is thought she can be floated ‘without much difficulty. Foreign Toples of Interest. ‘The Vatican has finally advised the centrists leaders in the German reichstag toaccept Baron Hermann as the chief of the party in the Iand- tag. ‘The baron is a persona grata to the Vati- car, but will not command the support of the center. Gen. John W. Foster, the special envoy of the United States to Spain in the efforts being made to arrange a commercial treaty with thai country, is confident that his mission will be rompily successful. Gon. Foster expects to Potable to return to the United ‘Stator tn ‘May. Signor Chimini, the Italian minister of com- merce, stated Saturday that Italy would accept the invitation of the United States to be repre- sented at the Chicago world’s fair. Bishop A. J. Glorieux, vicar apostolic of Idaho, has arrived in Rome. M. Deveile, the French minister of agricul- ture and a member of the chamber of deputies, is going to England for the special purpose of making a close study of the English system of betting upon race courses. ‘The body of Mr. C.G. Davis of Boston, Mass., asaloon passenger who lost his life by the sinking of the Anchor line steamer Utopia in Gibraltar bay, has been recovered and will be sent to New York. President Carnot, in recognition of the honor conferred upon him by the Czar of Russia, who recently bestowed the grand cordon of the Order of St. Andrew upon the president of the French republic, has decorated the Russian embassador at Paris, Baron de Mohrenheim, with the cross of the Legion of Honor.

SHE SAVED HER FATHER, Herole Self-Sacrifice of an Italian Girl, Investigations by the Camden police authori- ties have revealed the full particulars of a trag- edy enacted Saturday night at Cedar Brock, N. J. Dominico Filippo Cocco, an Italian, aged twenty-nine years, of Philadelphia, dur- ing a quarrel with his sister-in-law, Giovina Dionore, seventeen years old, plunged a sti- letto into her breast, causing almost instant death. Cocco came to this country in 1890, landing at Philadelphia. He separated from his wife ome months ago, since which time she has been living with her father at Cedar Brook. Cocco left Philadelphia Saturday afternoon with the avowed intention of trying to discover his wife's whereabouts. He inquired around Cedar Brook for his father-in-law’s residence and finally located the house, which he reached about dusk. He did not enter the house, but called for his wife to come outside. ‘This she declined to do, being afraid of him, but her sister went out and engaged in convor- sation with the husband, the father, meen- while, standing in the doorway. Finally, Cocco became enraged at something said by the father, and, drawing a stiletto, he attempted to reach old man, declaring he would kill him, but the daughter threw herself before hins,cry: out: “You can only get at my father after you have killed me. Cocco thereupon plunged the weapon into the girl's breast and ran away. He spent the night in the woods, and, eluding the searching parties that were on his trail, went to Camden, where he was arrested upon slighting from the train. The wife and her father were brought as witnesses, and they, together with Cocco, told their stories through an interpreter to the coroner. Killed by # Quart of Whisky.

Reed, editor and proprietor of the Pitteburg Commercial-Gazette, died Saturday night of pneumonia, resulting directly from an attack ot the grip. Mr. Reed was born in But- ler, Pa., in 1640, and learned the trade of sad- dier. He became engaged in the newspaper business in Pittsburg in 1861 and two years later, with several partners, bought the Gazette, the first daily paper established west of the Al- legheny mountains. He then bought out his partners and in 1877 consolidated the Gazette with the Commercial, his brothers, George and Joseph, becoming partners in the business. a Roughs at a Chinese Funeral. ‘The Chinamen of Pittsburg, contrary to the general belief in regard to their burials, do not send their dead to Chins, but own a neat lot in Uniondale cemetery, in which thoy are in- tered.

SIMON WOLF'S REMARKS. ‘Mr. Wolf, in the course of his remarks, said: “ask no one to go into this movement look- ing at those we seck to benefit as outcasts. It comes home to us in the loftiest conception of duty to welcome these people to our shores as brothers and sisters: Who tells us. that we are better than the meanest and lowest of them? Am I, because fortune or Providence has given me the power to arouse enthusiasm, better than Mr. Simon Schleminsky of Russia, who has been trodden upon by fate?

The United States is large enough to hold every man and woman whom the Czar of Ruasia’ may drive from his empire. We want to teach the man who comes here to do something nobler than carry a pack on his back. I make a prophecy that in less than two years 100,000 contributin, members will be enrclled under the banners the Jewish Alliance. I want every man and woman hore to be s missionary, going from house to house and asking aid for this addi- tional charity. In doing so you will make yourselves better. It is not only money that these people need; it is kind words. Seck them out; be gentle and patient with them.

Let us show that notwithstanding all the in- paid famy which has been heaped upon us the Jew stands erect now as in the past.” Other speakers were Prof. Fabian Franklin, Rey. Dr. Benjamin Szold, Rev.

The sun has now passed through a little more than half of its apparent journey between its southerly and northerly standing points. On March 20, when it crossed the line, it dashed past the half-way house in its course across the firmament, and for the next six months it will be north of the equinoctial. The duration of the daylight hours is now slightly in excess of that of the period of dark- ness, and the margin between them will keep on broadening until the closing days of June. psc ay for =. b noted — of the ator, but south of that line ite cdnditions will prevail. speed The = moon does not come in until the 8th, as there is over © week of the old moon! remaining when the month begins. On the 9th there is conjunction with Mercury, but the crescent is almost too close to the sun to admit of the meoting being seen, even if the planet was itself visible. On tho llth there will be conjunction with both Mars and Neptune, showing that the god of war and the god of the ocean are very close together. Our satellite draws near to Saturn on the 19th, and closes the monthly round with call upon. the far- distant Uranus on the28d, the day of fall moon. Jupiter again comes prominently to the front as the most conspicuous of the planets. Emerg- ing from the infolding rays of the sun, he has for some time been plainly visible to early risers an hour or so before the dawn. Today there is only twenty minutes difference between Venus and Jupiter—the former is drawing nearer thesun and the iatter is separating froma it—so that the interval between two planets will be decreasing until they are in Cela tion. This takes place on the 9th and be one of the events of the season in the astro- nomical world. The two planets will appear almost touching, and no finer opportunity could be wished for making a comparison be- tween these two great rivals of tho starry heavens. Perhaps the tableau on the 5th may be considered as ting a finer picture, as the waning moon will take one of the princi roles, and the slight distance separating three may lend enchantment to the view. The constellation of the water bearer has the honor of being the scene of this remarkable gather- ing. Genus is making her way toward the sun, and on the 1st rises less than two houra before the sun appears above the eastern horizon. As she travels toward superior conjunction she at the same time recedes from tho earth, her semi- diameter naturally decreases and with it her brilliancy. She has been fair to see for many weeks, and, although she will not lay aside her starry crown for some little time to come, her rival, Jupiter, is gaining rapidly upon her’ and will fairly ottehine her’ before present course as @ morning star has been fully run. Her varied phases liave been charming ever since she hung tremulous with brightness in the golden sunset, and then disap- ‘as evening star to reappear soon again on the other side of the sun, shining with a brillianey echpsing all else in the early morn- ing sky. Swinging away from the sun to her sition of western elongation in obedience to inevitable law, she is forced to retrace her steps until she comes directly in the presence of the great orb of day, whose fascinations are too ywerful for her to resist. In the tableau of the Ba her part in spite of all isa most prominent one, and those who have enough ambition to become the sun’s courtiers and attend his morn- ing levees at the break of dawn will have arare picture that will well repay the extra exertion.
