WOxENs CHRISTI AN UNION.
InseressIus Exercises Last Nishs. and Ae.
couut or Wsrk Done.


Despite the inclemency Of the weather,
the pariors OF the Young Mems Christian
Association were full last night, on the oc-
sasion Of the annual meeting OF the Wo-
mems Christian Temperance Union. Ex.
erciscs were begun with singing. and
piayer by Rev. Mr.. X. n. Howison.
The rfsumf Of work for the year was
then read, showing that much good bad
been done, not only In the particular OBJ
iect for which these ladies are pledged, but
wherever they have found work for the
Master they have been prompt to do II, not
the least interesting OF their labors having
been their report OF the Flower Mission at
the penitentiary. where since that time
twenty at least Of the prisoners have pro-
!cssed conversion and been baptized.
Rev. w. W. Landrum then delivered the
address. and commenced by saying that he
was not only gratitied but amazed at the de-
tails Of the report which had just been read.
lie had no idea OF the good that these ladies
have done and the ends they have sought
to accomplish. lie then gave an account
Of the forms OF the different temperance So
eieties which from time TO time had sprung
up, critieising the salient points OF
each, and saying that the Christian
manner OF reforming the drunkard and
bringing up the youth in the ways Of TEN.
perance was the best. IL was the power OF
God alone that could save the drtlnkard.
This was the work that this band Of women
were doing. His remarks were practical
and TO the point, aud were received with
great favor by those who were present.
Rev. X. NJ. Manly, being called on, made
a few appropriate remarks IN the lire OF
Mr.. Landrum's address. He said that II Is
a mistake TO suppose that the law anywhere
says that man shall not drink liquor II he
wishes to; IL merely comes IN TO regulate
the sale OF ardent spirits as IL does that OF
any other poison.
The guartette sang some very sweet. ap.
propriate hymns at intervals during tue
evening. The exercises were closed by
singing the long meter doxology.

THEIR LAST VOYAGE.
A Young Man and Maiden Go Sailing Int
a Gale and Meet Their Death.

baIe ana Meet IbeIf Dtath.
A Jacksonville Fla.) special SAYS: Fol
three days past this city has been in
anxiety over the fate OF Mr.. Hal Il. Smth
a prominent yoang jeweller Of this city
and Miss Alice George, a beautiful bru.
nette from Mobile, Ala. who was visiting
one Of our best families here. On Friday
morning AR. Smith and Mr. Serrell Hosmer
had arranged TO take Misses Alice and
Annie George, sisters, out for an early
morning sail and few hours fishing on
the ST. Johns.
STORM ARISING.
They left the clubhouse boai-yard at
O'Clock with a very stiff breeze blowing
into a gale. Smith started out first with
Alice, sailing his own boat. while Hosmcr
employed IN experienced boatman TO ae-
company him with Annie, carrying a row.
boat along in ease Of accident. Smith, who
was very daring youth. delighted at the
weather, spread every sail and glily waved
good-by as his boat shot out into the river
like an arrow, with tie gale Increasing
every moment. IIosmer and his party had
only been out short while when the
cclorcd boaiman decided that IT was unsafe
10 remain out in such gale, and. when
opposite Arlington, they tacKed in toward
shore 10 make a change INTO the row-boat.
A LAST GLIMPSE.
Just as they touched shore. Annie George
remembered TO have looked out in the river.
which is two miles wide at this point.
smith and Alice were mile ont, going
like the wind. smith held the sail-ropc.
Alice, with the tiller rope wrapped round
her white ann. sat iauntily IN the stern.
Smith turned, pulled OF his coat, and threw
it over Alice's shoulder. Atthis point An
ME and IIosmcr were occupied in making
the change to the small boat. When they
locked mp n moment later Smith and his
boat had disappeared from view. HoSmer
and Annie returned 10 the city and gave
the alarm. The river was searched and
dragged for miles up and down in vain.
THEIR SAD FATE.
To-day Smiths body, mutilated beyond
recognition, was found washed ashore
nearly two miles from where they were
last seen. Alice George still lies at the
bottom OF the river with the tiller-rope
wrapped around her white arm.
