The chief scientific interest OF the

The Great Negro Conference.

TUsKEGEE, Ala, Feb. 2l.-The
great Negro conference which
opened today will probably be at
tended by one thousand represent
atives. The aim is, as in previous
years, to bring together, not the
politicians, but the representatives
Of the common, Woodworking
farmers and mechanics, and minis
tiers and teachers. Two objects are
kept in view: First, to find out
from the people themselves
the facts as to their condi-
tions, and get their ideas as
to remedies for present evils;
End, to get information as to how
the young men and women now
being educated can best use their
education in helping the masses.
At the last conference there were
nearly 900 representatives present,
and a large number gave encour-
aging evidence OF how as result
of the previous meetings, homes
had been secured, schOolhOuses
built, school terms extended, and
the moral life of the peO-
pie bettered. In view Of
the economy which the people have
been forced to practise during the
last two years, owing to poor crops
and low prices of cotton, this con-
ference presents a medium through
which to teach pcrmOnent economy
and thrift. 1t is planned to devote
a portion of the session of this con-
ference to u WOmen'S conference.
On Thursday Como. row., the day
following the conference, there
will be a meeting of the Of
ficers and teachers Of the col
Ored schools in the south who
may be at the conference,
for the purpose Of comparing views
and taking advantage Of lessons
that may have been gotten from
the conference the previous day.
1t is believed that such a meeting
Of the workers for the elevation of
the Negro, held in the Black Belt,
with the lessons and impressions
of the direct contact with the mas
ses of cOlOred people the previous
day fresh before them, can only
result in much practical good to
the cause of Negro education.

A Horrible Death.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Feb. 21.-
Mrs. Sophia Beresford, the wife Of
a prosperous drayman, died last
night Of CHAMBERS. Four weeks ago
the wOman's husband unwittingly
purchased diseased horse for his
family to drive. A few days later,
while Mrs. Beresford was standing
near the horses head, the animal
sneeZed in her face. Soon afterwards
she was stricken with chills and
pains and swelling of the forehead.
She finally became so bad that she
was removed to the hospital and
there the nature of the disease was
discovered. The whole upper por-
ton OF the woman's face was eaten
away by the dreadful disease. The
husband and children also have
been exposed, and their condition
is being closely watched. The
health authorities killed the horse
and will cause the arrest of the
traders who sold it to Beresford at
a price that was ridiculOusly low.

Another Bomb Explosion.

PARIS, Feb. 81, 3 a. m. (by cable
to New York Rerald).-A bomb
was exploded at a small hotel, SO
Rue Saint Jacques, at 1:30 this
morning. 1t was left there yester-
day by ledger who had disap-
peared. The landlord, Calabresi,
found it, suspecting its nature, and
sent to the municipal labatory
for some one to come and investi-
gate. Before their arrival
'Calabresi and two dodgers went
to the room. When they entered
the bomb fell down from the shelf,
exploding and wrecking the
room.
Calabresi was terribly injured in
the stomach and two dodgers were
seriously wounded. They do not
know if the bomb was arranged to
go off on opening the door or
whether it was merely an acct
dent. The place was at once put
i'll the hands of the police. There
is great excitement in that
quarter.

To Dynamite a Bridge.

LANCASTER, Pa, Feb. 2l.-An
attempt was made last night to
blow up the Cherry street bridge
over the Pennsylvania railroad
with bomb made of a gas pipe.
The bridge is not badly damaged,
although the concession smashed
the windows and broke open the
doors Of neighbOring houses, and
threw down electrical wires.
Many people in the vicinity, at
first thought it was an earthquake
and rushed from their houses and
became panic stricken,b but remem-
bering it was election night, con-
cluded some one had fired a cannon
for a celebration of Republican
victory. There is great excitement
over the affair, as only a month
since a huge dynamite bomb was
found under the foundation of a
big fOur-story brick building adj
joining the police station. The fuse
had been lighted but was defective
and failed to explode the bomb.

a sweeping advance of % per cent.
