The effect of spraying apple trees with
London purple to prevent ravagcs of the
coiling moth or apple worm is well IL
lustrated by the experience of inpton, Of
Virginia, as stated in recent issue of
Insect Lifo. Tho work of spraying was
undertaken in &r. Lupton's orchard, but
was discontinued when less than one
third of the trceN had been SPRAYED.
From these trees 1000 barrels of apples
nearly free from worms were gathered
Will from the remaining two thirds of
the orchard only 1913 barrels of sound
fruit were obtained, quite ne.ffth of tho
apples from the unsprayed trees being
wormy and unfit for use. Mr. Lupton
estimates that his returns from the or.
chard would have been increa led $4,000
had all the trees been sprayed.

Opened in Person by the Emperor-Com-
m-ndatious for His Address.
BERLIN. Nov. 23 The Kaiser opened
the Rechstsg in person. Nearly every
member WAS in attendance, and the clos
est attention was paid while His Majesty
delivered his address
He spoke with a depth of intonation
that seemed to indicate his feeling in
regard to the coming struggle over the
Army Bill
There was a general attendance OF the
Imperial Ministry, Chancellor Caprivi
occupying the place Of honor near the
sovereign.
The Kaiser said he regretted that the
cholera had caused such suffering aud
loss Of life in portions OF the Empire.
I3esides the suffering caused, the cholera
mad damaged the economic situation, es-
pecally in regard to exports. Contrary
to expectations, the cholera still fingered
in the country, but he hoped that it would
soon disappear.
The speech appeared to make an excel
lent impression, largely because it so
carefully avoided giving any pessimistic
reason in explaining the necessity for the
Army Bill. The friends Of the govern
meut were pleased, and its opponents
were relieved by the cautious and con
eiliatory wording of the Kaiser's address,

BnUssELs, Nov. IS The International

yesterday. The meeting took place at
O'Clock. NJ Besrnaert, the Belgian
Prime Minister NJ. HonteAori Levi aud

The conference then adjourned until
Friday. Spain, Austria, Hungary Bel
gium, France, Germany, Great Britain,
Greece, Italy, The Netherlands, Portugal,
Roumania, Servia, Sweden, Norway,
Switzerland and the United States have
sent delegates.
Great astonishment Is expressed by
several of the delegates at the statement,
by American representatives, that they
had no formal propositions TO submit.
The English delegates particularly are
very much surprised at this, and impa-
tient to get away, il no special pro-
gramme is brought forward by the United

however, promise to present their pro-
gramme before Fridays session.
1t seems to be the general idea that the
Conference will resolve itself, at the in
stance Of the American delegates, into a
discussion OF bi-metallism If So several
delegates consider the failure of the Con-
ference foregone conclusion. 1t is evi
dent that the English delegates, at least
will do their share toward making it so.
The following are the United States
delegates to the conference:

A FAMILY WIPED OUT.

Father, Mother and Daughter Burned to
Crisp at Sharpsburg, Pa.
PITTsBURG, Nov. 20. The lives of one
entire family were blotted out by FIRE
yesterday morning.
The dead are:
HIRAM DANAHAUR, aged 45 years.
MRS. DANAHAUR, aged 43.
A daughter aged 10 years.
The Danahaur family lived in Pleasant
Valley, Ohara Township, just outside of
the town of Sharpsburg.
They had greenhouse in the basement
OF the house and placed a furnace in it
Monday.
1t is presumed that the furnace became
overheated, setting fire to the wood
work.
The family died before their neighbors
knew of their danger.
When the fire was discovered the house
had been burned to the ground and the
charred remains of father, mother and
daughter were found among the ruins.
Danahaur was timer by trade and
quite wei. connected
The terrible hoIOcu 1t has caused the
greatest sorrow throu ,hout the valley, as
the Danahaurs were sociably inclined
and were well liked by their numerous
friends and neighbors.
The unfortunate victims remains were
burned entirely beyond recognition,
nothing being left of them but mass OF
charred and blackened flesh and bones.

SCRANTON, Pa, Nov 2S.-Fisrcs flames
are raging in the workings of the Holden
collery at Taylor, five miles from this
city, which are so located as to make
almost impossible their eItinguishing in
any other manner than by flooding the
mine. A force of workmen ondeSvored

bottom Of the shaft, but the sitting after

Several Of them realizing 10 time the
awful danger in which they were tread
ing, turned in time and succeeded in
getting to point where there was fresh
air, which enabled them to appreciate
the condition of those overcome further
on in the ganGway.
Quickly summoning a reEcuing party,
and providing themselves with the neces-
sary safeguards, they returned into the
gangway and fourteen Frustrated miners
were carried out unconscious, and more
dead than alive
Those in the most serious condition are
David Davis, Benjamin Taylor, join
Edmonds, Thomas Morgan aud Jenkin
Harris.
Then another force was formed under
Supt. Davies to try and get a hose upon
the fire. In the gangway they went, but
as they proceeded they too were overcome
by the poisonous vapors, and 1t was only
by having men trailing behind them that
they were enabled to haYe rescuers reach
them.

that the physician had to work more than
an hour upon them before they became

Davies, Carroll, Fern, O'Hara and

This is the first instance of suffocation
in the mines of this section from this
cause since 1888, when twelve men were

New YORK, Nov. 23 Lovers Of foot
ball who intend to see the great struggle
on Manhattan Field on Thanksgiving
Day between Yale and Princeton are
alrsqdy arriving in the city, many com
ing from long distances.
They are veritable enthusiasts who
journey so long a distance, but it is
almost an assured fact that grand con-
test will reward them for their trouble.
Nothing in the line of sports is talked Of
outSide the holiday match between these
colleRians, and it is now announced that
practically every seat in the grand stands
has been disposed Of.
Bstters are plSnking their money on

money is scarce, aud most of it is handed
down at evens that the Zebras will score
anyhow.
Both teams are enjoying a season OF
calm just at present, Yale laying of
after her 'run in" with Harvard last
Saturday, and Princeton simply resting
until her 'leven shall fall up against
Yale Thursday.
Ths main idea now is to get seats for
the gRme-that is seats where every
movement of the bushy-haired, iron
musoled Titans may be seen.
Fifteen hundred seats were sent to New
Haven, but an hour after the sale open
ed, the supply had been exhausted and
not half the college had been satisfied
1t was about the same at Princeton, tc
which the same number of seats had been
assigned, and at old Nassau they howled,
