The two large water coolers, painted yellow, anda white pitcher, all filled with ice water, extreme utility last night at the meeting of the Father Mathew Total Abstinence Society, held in Carroll Hall for the purpose of hearing words of encouragement from the lips of two distinguished and talented divines of the Catholic church. Father James F. McGee, as- sistant pastor of St. Patrick's Church, presided in his capacity as spiritual director of the so- ciety, and introduced the speakers of the ning. The first was Rev. Father McAvoy of St. Au- ine, Pa., who delivered a carcful review of iblical reasons why men should be temperate. He said that re had come a from cover to cover for arguments against drinking and be had found no dearth of them. He quoted and then reinforced the words of Scrij ture with expressions of bis own that brought the question to a living, t issue. He spoke of the liquor sellers as a lot of “‘inde- ndent gentlemen,” because, he explained, *y defy the law and buy their backers to suit themselves. To the question ‘Where docs moderate drinking end?” he vouchsafed no re- ply, but assured his hearers that it did not end in the drunkard’s grave, for there is a deeper grave than that of earth for the souls that have been lost through the curse of strong drink. “Save your money,” he said; ‘the barkeeper is not a worthy object of your charity.” ON BAR-ROOM ART. He spoke of the presence and influence in the church of the’ dealers in liquor who oc- cupy front pews and stand at the head of com- mittees for the payment of church debts and do all sorts of >stentatious things, and he added that it is time that these folks were id off and the devil given his due, Total absti- nence, he asserted, knows nothing of matutinal enlargements of top stories, but « clear brain and an honest heart. Bar-room art, be said, is largely composed of the portraits of St. Patrick, O'Connell, Parneli, John L. Sullivan and Kilrain. Recent developments across the water would serve to make true men wish for tho owners of such to take the portraits of the saint and O'Connor out of the company of the others and remove them from the ques- tionable company into which they have been thrust. This association of the names of Par- nell and the prize fighters and their general designation as “‘plug-uglies” caused a general laugh, but little applaase. Total abstinence, ‘the speaker went on to say, shuts by far the largest gate of hell. He spoke of the poisons that are now put into spirituous liquore, and called attention to the medical opinions that alcohol doés no good, but isa rank poison. ‘Total abstinance, he declared, will remove the occasion of man’s degradation, solve not only the color problem, but also the labor question, and will elevate manhood to the level ‘lestined for it. In conclusion Father McAvoy spoke of the great influence that woman can exert in this matter, and he urged all wives and mothers to use their best endeavors to make the Father Mathew movement a success. REY. DR. GARRIGAN'S REMARES. Rev. Dr. Garrigan, the vice rector of the Catholic University of America, followed with a brief but forcible address upon the need of total abstinence societies in the community, and particulatly of organizations within the church. It is up-hill work, he said, this fight- ing of a human appetite and an established custom, but it can be won by persistent en- deavor. There are few men today who feel called = to practice this heroism in any eminent degree, for they do not see the utility of the thing when they are but moderate drink- ers, and will never become drunkards or pollute anybody with their influence. For this reason a society like this will always be but all can do good by becoming total abstainers for the sake of others, if not for themselves. There is no lasting success to be obtained in this di- rection unless the means adopted and the motives pursued be religious, as such 4% cause ix essentially a Christian one, and to be pushed with the aid and under the direction of the church. ‘There is a need, here in this city, Dr. Garrigan remarked, for a large building where young men of the Catho- lic faith may be taken by the Father Mathew Society and’ entertained, a house to take the place of the bar room and a library to enter- lain. He pointed to the example of the Young Men's Christian Association and urged emula- tion. Father Garrigan spoke particularly of the large work that the society las in hand, that of prepsring for the entertainment of the dele- gates to the great convention of the total ab- stainers of the Catholic church, which is to convene in this city during the month of August, and said that he hoped that every effort would be made to insure success. After the addresses a vote of thanks was passed to the two speakers, and at the invite tion of Father MeGee a number of the persons Largely Attended Meeting of the Father were the symbols that did service and were of present went forward and signed the pledge and became members of the society. a THE RAIN BALLOONS. Further Successful Test of the Working of the Ft “The apparatus designed by Mr. R. G. Dyren- forth for the purpose of producing an explo- sion in mid air with the view of ascertaining whether the conenssion would produce rain was successfully tested yesterday afternoon. A number of gentlemen interested were pres- ent at the experiment grounds on Piney branch near Ith street extended and witnessed the experiments. Among those present were Assistant Secrets *s of the Treasury Nettle- ton and Spauk Smithsonian Institution, Assistant Secretary Willets of the Agricultural Department, Com- missioner of Patents Mitchell, Chief Clerk Duryea, Examiners Seeley, Blodgett, Sinel- wood and Jolinson, Gen. Ruggles, Dr.’ Wiley, chief chemist of the Agrienltural Department; Mr. Hill, chief of the division ef editing and records, and Chief Clerk 8. 8. Rockwood of the Agricultn Department, Messrs. Keefer, Pumphrey, Ellis, Farry id Casler and John N. Webb, Dr. Rossell and Prof. Carl E. Myers. Balloon, twelve feet in diameter, charged with two parts of hydrogen and one of oxygen, were sent to an elevation of about 1,200 fect and there exploded by means of anelectrie current trans- mitted ona slender wire connected with the large pear-shape air vessel. Tho first experi- ment Was made on a single balloon, the concus- sion produced by the explosion sounding like the report of a six-inch rifle on shipboard, the gases causing the compiete colixpse of the bal- Toon and at ‘the same time sending toward the earth myriads of bright gold sparks, like those of fireworks. Iwo balloons of the same size and charged with 500 cubic feet of gas were sent up in the second experiment to an eleva- tion of 1,000 feet and exploded. It is the in- tention to demonstrate the ~ sactical nature of the theory that concussion will cause rain by a series of tests in the arid regions of the west. goociai! titaat MOORE'S MISTAKE, MAJ. Sergeant Daley Should Have Been Recom- mended Instead of Cross. The Commissioners at the late board session ~ esterday afternoon approved the recommenda- tion of Maj. Moore with reference to the police changes, with the exception of the promotion of Acting Sergeant Cross to be full sergea: As stated in yesterday's Star, Acting Sergeant Daley appeared before the Commissioners and protested against the promotion of Crows, whom, he stated, ranked below him in per- centage. Maj. Moore explained that he had made « mistake and produced the record, which showed unmistakably that such was the case, and Daley received the promotion. portgrka Seat Death of Paul M. Hewlett. Mr. Paul M. Hewlett, colored, brother of Lawyer Hewlett, died yesterday at his home, No. 1527 Madison street. Deceased was thirty- six years old.

His remains will be sent to Boston for interment. ee ‘Twe Sunday Schools Together.

Degrees Awarded to the Graduates of the Maryland Agricultural College. the Maryland Agricultural College took place yesterday. College station presented an ant- mated appearance all day with the crowds of visitors, many being pretty girls laden with Douquets. The long chapel hall was gaily and tastefully decorated with flagy. The exercises were begun with prayer by Rev. J. A. Cham- bliss of East Orange, N. J., formerly a profes- sor in the college. President Henry E. Alvord next introduced Hon. John M. Gregory, ex- President of - the Illinois Industrial Uni- versity, who made the address of the day. ‘The members of the graduating class delivered orations. Fletcher Perry Veitch of Montgom- ery county delivered an’ oration, “The Ameri- can vs. the Englis Laborer;” James Clarence Langley of St. Mary's county read an epeay, “The Old and the New in Agriculture;” Charles Branch of Howard county, an oration, “Our Constitution;” Su Penn, a Corean, an oration on “Commerce,” and James Brawner Latimer of Calvert county, the valedictory address, ded to by an undergraduate, 8.

Prettyman, secretary of the state board of education, presented the diploma con- forring the degree of bachelor of science to the graauates in place of Governor Jackson, who was unable to be present. After a brief ad- dress by President Alvord the exercises in the chapel ‘were concluded. ‘The cadets gave an exhibition drill in the campus, under the dircction of their military instructor, Lieut. A. B. Scott, U.S.A. The bail given by ‘the students in the evening was at- tended by a large number of visitors from this city and Baltimore. The prize for the best record in agriculture in the senior class was awarded to James Brawner Latimer, and Cadet Captain Veitch was named ae the most_pro- ficient in the military department, which achievement entitles him to be mentioned in the records of the War Department. suai sad Indictments by the Grand Jury.

Preston Williamson, filed a bill for divorce against Louisa Tibbs. ‘They were married in May, 1886, and lived to- gether till Jaunary, 1891, when he discovered that she bud committed adultery with S. Clem- ents and one Kelley. —— ‘When the Courts Will Adjourn. The justices of the Supreme Court of the Dis- trict have not as yet determined when they will commence their summer recess, nor, indeed, when the courts will adjourn over until Sep- tember. As far asthe General Term and the Criminal Court are concerned there is no writ- ten rule regarding recess and these courts can sit in August if business demands it. It is not likely, however, that the General Term will sit very lute in July, for already there is some difiiculty in getting up cases, and it is probable that after the disposal of the Kock creek case and perhaps one or two other cases demanding a speedy hearing a recess will be taken for the summer. The Criminal Court, Jndge Bradley, it is thought, will have its business arranged by the 20th of July, and the Circuit Court, Judge Cox, will, under’ the rules, close on Saturday, July 11.’ The Equity Court, Judge Hagner, under the rules, does not sit in Augast, but will probably be adjourned early in July. Whatever may be the arrangements of the jus- tices for their outings one of the justices will be at band for emergencies. — He Was Acquitted. Sol.

Policeman Hopkins could not arrest them at the time, because he had amore important case on hand, bat he procurred a warrant for them and their case was called in Judge Miller's court today. Brown 85 deposited, Which was forfeited. Morris appeared and fines amounting to #9 were imposed. Saas In Favor of Burning Garbage. To the Faitor of The Evening Star: ‘The question of burning the garbage is a very important one, and should be ventilated until well understood. ‘The complaint of your corre- spondent in Monday's Stan may be, to sme extent true, especially in regard to fatty #ub- stances, but the facts are mainly against it. The tendency of the gases from the burning, to ascend with the smoke carries them mostly beyond the reach of the human olfactory.” But even when inhaled they are much less disagree- able and injurious than that from the reekin slop barrel in a hot day, besides that from the barrel spreads moré and rises leas than that from the burning. I have burned this waste for a year and hearing no complaints from my neighbors shall continue. By all means urge the burning of the garbage. T. —— GEORGETOWN. ST. JOHN'S DAY OBSERVED.
