An Explosion Occurred and the Two
Occupants Were Killed.

Berlin, June 12--Herr Woelfcrt, an
aeronaut, accompanied by machinist
named Knabe, made an experiment at
ascent in so-called steering airship from
the Tempelhoff common this evening.
When the balloon, which had been filled
at the military ballooning establishment,
had reached height Of 5000 feet a loud
explosion was heard and the next mo-
ment the balloon was seen to be ablaze.
The car, which was also on fire, detached
itself from the burning silk and fell with
fearful rapidity to the ground. Both Of
its occupants were found to be dead.
Their bodies were horribly burned. 1t
appears that the benzine used in the
steering gear motor exploded, causing the
disaster eil

Was ArtfulIy Planned.


New York. June IA special to the
World from Paris says:
The outrage was artfully planned.
About 100 yards below the Cascade in
the Bots de Boulogne, near the famous
restaurant celebrated for it's exclusive
patronage and high prices, is a thick
clump of lilac bushes, where the assassin
lay in ambush. There he effectually Sc
creted himself from observation.
The presidential carriage and cOrtege
were travelling at smart gallop. 1t was
after 3 o'clock and Nj. Faure was little
late.
Suddenly a loud report was heard.
During the momentary panic President
Faure and his wife, with remarkable
presence of mind, sat back i'll their
ness.
The impressionable French crowd, ever
quick to recognize courage, cheered them
to the echo.
A man in the crowd who was supposed
| to be the prim mover was arrested
promptly. He gave his name as Gallet
and made only the brlefest replies to
questions put to him by the police. Gal
let says he has no occupation and lives at
Levallois-Perret.
The police were chagrined, for they
had made elaborate preparations to pro
tect the president.
NJ Lepine, the project of police, wht
was in the presidential box at Lon.
Champs, showed to the distinguished Wis
itors, who shOwered fluctuations upon Nj
Faure, piece of the exploded bomb ant
tried to treat the incident as lightly as
| possible, but his appearance plainly
showed his anxiety.
On being interviewed, he acknowledged
| the explosion must have been very vic
lent, for it damaged the surrounding
| trees and tore up a considerable quantity
of earth.
The presumption is the mscreant hoped
that in the panic caused by the explosion
he would be able to rush in and use {
pistol or knife, because it is certain hi
could not have done any damage at the
distance he stood from the carriage.

The suItan's Latest Move.

London, June 14.-The Times cores

"The sultan has appealed to Emperor

displeases the ambassadors of the pow

pleasure by refusing to negotiate the
other points in Turkeys demand until
the evacuation demand is settled"

We agree with the "Colored Ameri-

John Mitchell. Jr.. POSTMASTER Of
Richmond would NEE the hearty ap-
proval Of the colored republicans of
the state of Virginia and a great many
of his white friends who on account of
his color cannot afford to say So Yes,
and an independent candidate run on
his merits, one whose past record has
been such as to win the confidence and
respect of the colored voters of DAN
vile would in our opinion and in the
opinion OF many others expressed have
an easy walk over in the. election of
Commissioner of Revenue to be held
on 18th of March.
The Democrats will hold as usual
their Primary and as they do not give
the colored people any chance OF vot-
ing for their choice in these municipal
elections they should run an indepen-
dent candidate every time the demo-
Gratis put up their candidates, what
harm can be done by 80 doing. You
only show to the white people that you
have desires, favorites and can choose
for yourselves and that you would be
active in there elections If you were
only given the chance.
Why is there no representation of
the citizen OF color in the council.

laurels in their crown, is putting it
mildly Gayety, festivity. beauty and
adornments in full force added to the

The New Masonic Temple on Patton

decorated with streaming colors of
blue and yellow Monday night, while
on the rostrum stood two large flower
