A Testimonial 10 Engineer Sanger.

A more surprised man than Engineer Ezra B. Sanger, of steamer No. 2, would have been hard to find last evening, out side of the political arena, when he was made the recipient of handsome easy smoking chair for himself and an elegant old fashioned oak rockingchair, upholster- ed in old gold, for Mrs. Sanger.
 Engineer Sanger yesterday completed the twenty fifth consecutive year of service in the fire department, having been ap' pointed a member of the department December 1, 1866, and the chief, Fire Marshal Kennedy, Superintendent Smith, Captains Hubbard of steamer 2 and Fan cher of truck 1, the various engineers and stokers of the department together with the members of engine company No. 2 and truck 1, with a few personal friends de cided to present him with the above hand some presents as token of their regard for him as a man and fellow fireman.
 With the presents came fine letter of congratulstion from the chief.

An Express Train Flows Into a Local

 Escape of the Passengers.
 TARRYTowN, N. Y., Dec. 1.-At o'clock tonight the Chicago express from New York, running fast, crashed into Croton local train standing on the track in front of the New York Central station here The cars of the local train, consisting of two passenger coaches and a com pertinent car, were telescoped and the locomotives were badly wrecked. The passengers in the local train were warned of the approaching express and hurried out of the cars before the crash. But for this many persons would have been killed. The forward sleeper of the express was partly wrecked. There were but few per sons in the car. They escaped with bruises and severe shaking up. The passengers in the other cars of the express were thrown from their seats. When they recovered from the shock they rushed wildly from the cars. It is thought the block signal, an eighth of mile from the station, was not set and that the accident was due to this fact. It is regarded as almost miracle that both the engineer and fireman of the express were not killed. It is estimated that the total damage done uill amount fo S50 O0O

Revival Services at the Church of The
 Maasfah

The announcement that Rev. NIT, Elmer, of Bridgeport and Stanford Mitchell, the noted gospel singer, would be present ai the revival services in the church of the Messiah drew @ large audience there last evening. The meeting was conducted by Rev. L. H. Squires. A service of song was rendered at the early part of the meet ing by MT. Mitchell, who charmed and de- lighted all present with his remarkably fine singing. Rev. MT. Emery preached an able sermon, taking for bis text ssMan shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God"
 The sermon was & presentation of the character of mankind, their wants and aspirations and the proper methods to de- velop a symmetrical and beautiful life. Rev. Mir. Squires followed with an earnest address in which he spoke of the benefits which accrue to those who associate them selves together in Christian work and fel- lowship.
 MT. Mitchell sang two appropriate selec- lions and the meeting was brought to a close. This evening there will be another revival service and doubtless the church will be crowded, as the people of this city become aware that Mir Mitchell is to par ticipate.

 sized.
 SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1.-The ill-fated expedition of the brig Tahiti, the loss of which was reported on Sunday, is viewed in various lights here. Many do not hesi- tate to declare the brig slayer, while others contend that her business was le- getimate.
 The loss of life is undoubtedly 100 in ex- cess of yesterdays estimate of 300. This was based on the report furnished by Cap tain Ferguson at the time she put into Drake's Bay, to the effect that the Island CTS between the decks numbered 270. From persons who visited the brig in the confidence of the managers of the trip, it is learned the number of Gilbert Island natives was nearly 400 Of these it is hardly passible that single one is alive. The result of further inquiries along the Mexican coast wherever the wire could reach, is embodied in a short despatch from Manzanillo, announcing that no one has reached shore as far as can be learned,
