 There was large congregation at the First church, Fair Haven, yesterday afternoon. Two members were admitted to the church on profession of faith and three children baptized. Rev. Burdett Hart, the pastor, preached an eloquent sermon on the subject of temperance. "Drunksnness, said he, 'is growing among Victims of the vice have now become an army of six millions of Amer ican citizens. Intemperance makes forty per cent. of our lunatics, seventy five per cent. of our criminals and ninety five per cent. of our worthless outcasts. thousand million dol lars is invested in the traffic. We cannot comprehend these figures, but we can feel what we cannot understand. It is gratifying to know that important steps are being taken to suppress this great evil This temperance | revolution has already commenced. It has started in the great Northwest-the breeding ground of cyclones. In Kansas, Iowa, Ohio and New York the question has already been l thoroughly agitated, and the tidal wave has l now reached Connecticut. Prohibition laws I have been passed in Kansas and Iowa, and l they are being enforced. The result has been that although in those States the increase has never been as fast as now, yet crime has ! been reduced one half. Adjoining States | are nowtaking steps toward similar consti- l tutional amendments.

 ratified by the people at the polls. The first ! step was successfully taken last winter. Ev. erything now depends on our voters electine men to the Legislature who are sound on the temperance question and who cannot be bought over by the rumsellers. We should ! all be careful to vote for no license, for the ! protection of ourselves and our children
 No possible good can come from the run ! traffic. Our license law is, without doubt, tht
 best that has ever been framed. It is full
 of regulations and restrictions, fne
 and imprisonments. But the law
 itself by these very restriction
 condemns the whole traffic. The very fac ! that many safeguards have to be throwr
 around the sale of liquor is one of the bes
 of reasons why it's sale should be abolished
 The sober part of the community want pro
 lection and prohibition. There should be permanent outlawry of the traffic. The king

 selling is put down. Politicians and states

PHILADELPHIA, April 15.-Marion L.
Dow, the female stock broker, was pre-
sent in the supreme court this morning,
in charge of an officer, in answer to the
writ Of habeas corpus recently granted.

read afidavits made by James

they both claimed to be man and wife,
having been married in Boston in 1869 by
the Rev. Mr.. Seymour. The afidavits
both set out that the wife had been sus-
taincd by the husband who had
alway contributed to her support.
No application for a divorce had
been made by either, and after show-
ing certified copy of the marriage from
tho marriage register Of Boston,
Mr.. Biddle thought his client should be
privileged from arrest. After argument

THE SHIPHERD INQUIRY.
BLAINE Desires To BE HEARD IN IT

He Addresses Letter to tho Foreign Affair."
Connsttse-the Cross-Examination
] LII ..of Shipherd Consinued.
WASHINGTON, April 15.-At the open
| ing of the session of the foreign affairs
committee to-day. the chairman presented
letter from ex Secretary Blaine, stating
tee in reference to the Peru Chilian matter.
the receipt of the letter, leaving it an open
heard.
Mr.. Belmont said that in view of Ship.
herds refusal to answer several questions
which he had deemed material he would
not further cross examine witness.
The chairman said it was desirable to
conclude the examination of Shipherd to-
day, and Mr.. Lord then took up the cross
examination and questioned witness rela-
tive 10 his purpose in dealing with Hurl-
but. Witness replies were of the same
purport as in his previous testimony-that
he always considered Hurlbut bad man :;
his object in dealing with him was to pre-
vent Hurlbut injuring them.
Shipherd was closely questioned by Mr..
Lord in reference to his letter to Hurlbut,
in which he had offered Hurlbut S25, 900
worth of stock Of the company, and
Blaine's remark in reference thereto, when
he told Shipherd that "that would fetch
him." Shipherd differed with Mr.. Lord
in the construction put upon that remark
that the secretary meaut to offer was in
adequate and said he (Shipherd) took it as
q purely jOcOse remark.
In further Testimony Shipherd said his
impressions that Hurlbut was villain We
deepened as they went on, ond that Hurl-
but ultimately took the course that witness
feared he would.
Witness said he became acquainted with
this company in March, 1881, and shat no
minister Of the United States. or member
of Congress, ever owned any interest in
the company. He declined to say whether
any senator ever owned stock of the COM
pany when asked what considerations
was given GalatieO COchet for his claim,
witness caused some amusement by sim.
ply replying that the consideration was
satisfactory to all parties concerned.
Witness refused to give the names of
the two men who were personally cogni-
zant of Hurlbut's intimacy with Suarz,
but said he would give the names to the
committee in confidence. The chairman
and the investigation was then
postponed until Tuesday when the exami
nation of Shipberd will be concluded.

JOHN WANAMAKER'S
SATURDAY.:
PHILADELPHIA.

Summer silks are half gone al
ready; and those, who don't
read our store-news, have hardly
begun to buy yet.
! Now pongees turn out scarce; /;
none to be got almost. We have
a enough to last a week,
may be. Then two hundred
pieces more are coming; and,
so far as we know now, that is
the end of the pongees here.
Pongee-colored louisines en-
broidered all-over with silk fig
ures and flowers, that came to
us syesterdayfrom Paris, are even
a better hit than our buyer could
have known. They are notably
new, striking, and in accord with
the embroidery spirit of the time.
That's enough to make them
highly desirable; but the scarcity
of pongees makes them still
more so; for these are richer
than pongees, worth double.
Pongee-colored tafetas splen-
didly brocaded with a lighter
shade of the same color, and
with delicate touches of positive
colors, such as green, garnet,
etc. These positive colors un-
derlie enough of the taffeta
ground to give it a changeable
effect, greatly enriching the bro
cade, and, even apart from the
brocade, suggesting, indeed en-
forcing, combinations with other
silks of these same positive
colors. Nothing could be more
suitable for elegant out-of-door
attire.
