The reform movsthent about being In
augurased by DR.. Hulburd OF Grace N. n.
Church will doubtless lead to the accom-.
piishment OF d great deal OF good In our
city. The Doctor is fortunate In having
tho corporation OF such earnest men as
Messra Jackson. Hastings, Pickels and
Reynolds. They will certainly not shrink
from following where ever he may dare
to lead, and old Belzebub aud his leglons
may be made to fear and tremble. We
shall certainly sec a great shaking up Of
dry bones In our city, as the movement
has the sympathies OF the leading menu
crs OF all religious denominations. AMI
such unanlmity of feeling indicates an
earneetness that cannot be successfully
resisted by John Barleycorn and his
various disciples. as we presume that 1t Is
against them the fret grand advance
will be made.
We have had various crusades In our
city and although few of them accom-
pllshed all the good desired. some adyan-
ces were made in every Instance, and the
community was benefited thereby. Men
deceive themselves when they say tina Z
wickedness Is steadily on the Increase.
The community is slowly gro wing better.
There lie less barbarity than there was a
century ago. more tolerance, more christi.
anity more charity, without which all
professions are sounding brass or

DA CANA PRACTICALLY SURRENDERs


WASHINGTON, March 12;--The state de-
partment received two important dispatches
from Minister Thompson at Rio this even
ing. The first one stated that Admiral Da
CANA had offered through the Portuguese
naval commander to surrender on
condition that he and his follow
ers should be guaranteed safety.
This message was brought to Pres-
dent Peixoto by the Portuguese officer
in person. PeiXoto's reply is not given, but
il is inferred from the second despatch of
Minister Thompson, received two hours
later, that the terms We're favorably re-
ceived
According to the second despatch Admiral
Da CANA had left his ship and gone aboard
the Portuguese vessel as an asylum. Secre-
tary Gresham understands from the de
spatches that the war has virtually ended.
Minister Mendonca said tonight that he had
received information fully in accord with
that of the state department.
