Church Teaches Patriotism.

The Washington Pos Of Monday says
A solemn high mass of requiem was sung
yesterday morning at O'Clock at ST.
Joseph's Catholic Church. A number of
the most prominent of the Catholic clergy
of the city were present, and after the
ceremony was finished a touching address
was made by Father Cunnanc The cere-
mOny was an extremely impressive one.
The church was draped for the occasion
with American flags. The front seats of
the middle aisle were occupied by a de
tachment from the Marine Corps. under
the command of Capt. F. II. Harm gton
The Marine Band was present and rem
dered composition of Leander Larsen's

At the conclusion of the mass prayers for
the dead were read by Father Schmidt,
assisted by Father Dillon, and then
Father Cunnane spoke. He said it was not
his intention to eulogiZe the men who
had persisted in the Maine disaster, but
he wished to point out the lessons of
patriotism, self-ccntrol and obedience

posts of duty" said he, lis already written

In studying the effects of such Il disaster
we should not, in the grief consequent to
the loss of so many lives, loss sight of the
lessons to be learned. These men have
lost their lives in the service of their
country, and are therefore entitled to the
honor of their church, for patriotism is
essentially one of the teachings of the
church. The love of God is displayed by
the observance of Gods commandments
and patriotism is displayed by reverence
for the laws of ones country"
He went on to say that this nation has
displayed wonderful self command and

by Captain General Bianco on the subject
Of the bombardment of Matanzas by ships
belonging to Rear Admiral SIMPSONS
squadron on Wednesday last:
Three American cruisers fired on the
batteries Of Fort Morillo at Matanzas with
out doing any damage. We fired fourteen
shots, to which the Americans replied with
multitude of mitrailleus (quick-firing
guns) shots, which did not do any injury.
The American squadron also fired four
teen cannon shots at the Sabanflla battery,
only one mule being killed, to which the
Spanish battery only replied with four
shots, the squadron was beyond range.
''The whole squadron of five ships then
threw several shells into the town, with
out doing any damage The French and
Austrian consuls have protested against
the bombardment as 1t was commenced
without any previous warning to foreign
subjects.
1.-The troops manning the stations are full
of fight.

Favorable Action Taken ON Bills Of
Local Interest.
The Senate today passed Senate bill 1911
for the relief of holders OF certain Dis
trict of Columbia tax sale certificates.
The bill was amended by motions Of
Mr.. Cockren to strike out the pro-
vision for the payment OF six per cent in
terest on tax sale certificates for two years
from the date of such certificates. This bill
comprises $50 tax sale certificates, whose
aggregate values exclusive Of interest, is
$3,S1656. These tax sale certificates were
issued to purchasers Of property in arrears
for general taxes at the annual sales held
In the District Of Columbia in the years
1872, 1873, 1874. 1875 and 1876. These GER
tiflcates were by law convertible into tax
deeds after the expiration of two years
from the date of sale. The failure OF the
collector of taxes to report such tax sales
to the recorder OF deeds, as required by
law, invalidated the certificates In the
hands of the present owners.
The Senate today passed without amend
ment House bill 1886 to permit the carry
ing or selling Of deadly weapons I'm the

proved by the Commissioners. The bill

OF United States district attorney for that

difficulty in communicating with their

been overcome. and f&1 arrangement has
been effected here bE which they will be
