TEMPERANCE MASS MEETING.
THE CRUSADERS AT RYLANp CHAPEL

THE CRUSADERS AT RYLAND CHAPEL
The ladies Of the southern district Of the Tenn
perance Union held public meeting last night ct
Ryland chapel, corner Of D and Tenth streets,
Island. Notwithstanding the threatening aspect
Of the weather and the intensity Of the heat,
there was tair audience, large proportion be,
much grace and dignity. 80
The exercises were opened with the singing Of
1ss Tss WITH
Mrs. Linville. The presiding officer Mrs. Baster)
then read several passages Of Scripture from the
tn s he lover sa 81 :, sddrss. sbs
meeting and welcomed the assemblsge in 0 few
well-chosen words. She spoke briefly Of the raw
age. Of intemPerHnce and q the e., solemn duty Of
reform.
She answered the question "what had the
women Of Washington done?n BY saying that
tins of strong drink had been rescued !; some
saloons had been closed; they were now striving
b IHg iSsv n 81 10 unt
their work was victorious. .a
Mrs. La Fetrs was then introduced, and re-
marked that the faith OF the ladies in this good
cause had been strengthened by the success that
had thus far crowned their labors. She related
several instances Of remarkable conversions under
the influence Of the Ladies' Temperance Union.
She referred to the great work Of the women Of
Ohio, and thanked God for the encouragement 1t
gave to the friends Of temperance here and else
though they felt weak. She urged the members
OF the congregation to come out and aid the good
cause. y. e-r-. f.
After some remarks by Mrs. Barnard, the battle
song Of the temperance crusaders was admirably
sung by Mr.. W. II. Rice, the congregation joining
in the chorus.
Mrs Dawson, rising in the congregation, said
she could heartily join in the chorus Of the song
that had Just been sung-"Glory hallelujah, God
lie marching on" The cause was marching on,
although some church-members were rather luke
warm. There were some Of the members Of the
Methodist Church who had even recommended
licenses for the sale Of liquor. But the ladies
were determined to overthrow, If possible, this
gigantic eyil-to dig up this blighting upas by
the roots. The manufacturers and sellers would
be held to an awful responsibility. Let the
Church be o beaeon-light TO shine over the dark
ways Of those who are on the road to destruction.
Mr.. Ohapin made an impressive address to the
mothers, daughters and sisters present, urging
them to Danish liquor In every shape from theft
households. She cautioned young ladies against
receiving the addresses of young men who drank
liquor, however moderately. Those who drank
temperately were responsible for many OF the
evils that afflicted society. .
Mrs. Huggins, Of Mississippi, made Q short
speech, and the services were closed with prayer
by the pastor, Rev. Mr.. Shannon, singing Of the
doxology, and benediction by Rev. Dr.. Noble.

This enterprise has excited general interest,
and will be- beyond doubt, great success. There
Is no city in America that has aha population Of
Washington that has not at least a dozen SUI
burban villas, where the tired, wearied denizens
of the hot and dusty cities and towns can retire,
and amid the great stiffness of their country
home, with their own garden and fruits. live q
happier lie, and certainly by far the most eco
nomcal one. And the great advantage that su-
hurban homes offer is, that the land adjacent TO
the cities are constantly Increasing in value. AZ
Arlington Park the lots will be sold 80 cheap as
to satisfy the most exacttng, and three years
given to pay for them. The grand scenery, its
transit by rail and turnpike, and the distance Of
not quite two miles from the national capital,
makes 1t an opportunity, whether for building
again. Catalogues, with o full description of the
property, can be obtained at the auction rooms OF
Messrs. Latimer s Cleary, corner Of Pennsylva-
mia avenue and Eleventh street, and the details
and terms can be seen in the columns Of all the
