The Congregational Church was well filied last evening at the temperance meeting held in connection with the annual convention of the W.C.T.U., which began yesterday morning. The evening session was given in charge of the Good Templars, who had’ arranged some time agoto bold a mass meeting at this time, and who, on invitation of the ladies, decided to join their ener; with them. There were a number of able addresses made by prominent speakers, and the meeting was decided success. In the opening speech Rev. F. D. Power took the ground that the people were responsible for the existence of the saloons:in this city, and said that the law was so constituted that if they would the citizens could close the doors of every saloon in Washington. Either they were indifferent or else they were afraid, for while g the merits of moral for the drink evil and another speaking the praises of the bi-chloride of gold treatment, the liquor men themselves were not idle, but ‘were going abead and se- curing the necessary signatures to give them a license te open a saloon. JUDOR RIMBALL’S REMARKS. Judge Kimball of the Police Court was one of the speakers end in the course of his remarks said that the rovelations of the court were enough te make one sick at heart. For in- stance, yesterday wasa light day for Moudey and yet of tlie filty-three cuses that came before him in the course of the day thirty-three were the direct results of drinking.

WILSON'S APPEAL. Rev. Dr. John A. Wilson of Dover, Del., who came over to speak on the subject in which he is most interosted, made a forcible addross, in which he expressed his surprise that the voice ofevery man and woman Was not raised against the evil which attacked one home in every five and which meant that in every tixty-five per- sons in this country was @ man or woman ruined through drink.

Saag oe McKnew's Fall Opening. Of the many notable fall openings none have attracted a more widespread interest than the annual display of coats, cloaks and suits made today by Mr. William H. McKnew. The store presents a most attractive appearance, it having been transformed into veritable gar- den of plants, palms, flowers, &c. New goods have been tastefully displayed here and there, and the whole effect hes been brightened by a Profuse decoration of flags and buntings. Hun- dreds of fashionably dressed indies visited the store during the day, and general surprise wa expressed at the marked improvements made within the past few months, All the partitions in the upper floor have been removed and the rear wall has been built up another story to correspond with the front, thus throwing the four floors into active service, where but two were formerly used. One of the most important additions to the establishment is the electric elevator, fitted with all the modern safeguards, which runs smooth and free from thatdisagree- able jerky starting and stopping 6o noticeable in many elevators. In enlarging the store Mr. Mcknew has found much needed room for in- creasing the stock of the original departments, and adding many new ones Jong recognized as being essential for properly mecting the re- juirements ot hix constantly growing trade.

Arthur MacArthur, made a brief address to the stadents and aisothe mem- bers of the faculty, as follows: Prof. William B. Webb, Prof. Carusi, Prof. Phillips, Judge Good, Prof. Ralston, Prof. Rogers and Prot. Claughton. ‘MEDICAL AND{DENTAL DEPARTMENTS. The first session for the year of the motical and dental departments of the National Uni- Vorsity was heid last evening in the hall, 8th end K streets.

The only address made was that of Prof. Fellows, whe spoke bricily of the necessity for a thorough e preliminary education upon which to base proper study of medicine. Atthe conclusion of the remarks of Prof. Fellows Dr. Barker, deacon of the faculty, an- nounced the course of lectures beginning with tonight and called the attention of the students to the polyclinic and der tal infirmary. <bean Arrixrion is called to the advertisement of the trustec’s sale of desirable three-story brick dwelling, No. 1802 M street northwest, tomor- row at 5 o'clock p.m. Cxzveraxvs Bisse Pownse WHOLESOME.
