Hampton Institute began to-day, and
long before the time set for the OPEN
ing number on the long and interesting
program the gymnasium was we'll fill
ed, the faces of many we'll known white
citizens, numbers of whom were ac-
companied by their wives and daugh-
tcrs, appearing in the large audience.
The conference which began yester-
day evening and was continued until a
late hour last night attracted large
numbers of people of both races. The
addresses and brief debates which took
place dealt with problems which con-
Germ the moral, intellectual and mate
rial advancement Of the negro. The list
of participants embraced the names of
Hon. j. l.. NJ. Curry. LII. D., Mr.. Wal
ter Page, Mr.. Booker r. Washington,
Prof. j. NJ. Lindsay, OF the University
of Pennsylvania. and many other peo-
pie of prominence who have manifested
practical interest in the welfare of
tho colored race. The conclusions ar
rived at with respect TO the advance
ment made during the past year wre
pronounced highly satisfactory, while it
was declared that the outlook for the
future has never been brighter.
To-day's exercises covered a variety of
topics. There were we'll written papers
by students of the institution and ora
tons of a high order of merit by both
Indian and negro pupils.
Among the distinguished men whose
voices were heard to-day were Mr.. Rob-
ert C. Ogden. of New York; Mr.. George
Foster Peabody. Prof. James A. Rus
sell, Prof. Charles d. McIver, OF North
Carolina; Prof. l.. S. Rowe, OF the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania; DR.. w. E. Du-

body and the Rev. Alexander McKcn-
sic, of Cambridge. Mass: Prof. Miller,
of Howard University. Washington. D.
c.: Bishop McVicar. of Rhode Island.
and the gentlemen whose names are re-
corded above.
The debates on the public school
question last night and to-day were
the anniversary. A number of able
addresses were delivered by colored, as
we'll as white. speakers.
The exercises will close tonight, but
many OF the visitors will remain to-
morrow.
A NEW LAW AT THE HOME.
At their recent meeting here the
Board of Governors of the National Sol
diers' Home adopted n rule which
makes carrying liquor into the reserva-
ton and jumping the fence serious of
lenses. The rule. which has been post
cd for the information of the veterans.
provides that any man found guilty of
bringing In liquor without the Govern
or's written permission. or jumping the
fence. hall be expelled. The sverity of
the punishment is found in the fact
that expulsion from the Hampton
Home means that the doors Of all
the others will be closed against the Of
fender. The result OF the order is that
Governor Woodfin's court docket has
shown n falling off In the number Of
cases for trial since its PRONUNCIATION.

was made in 1404, Lightweight years
before Columbus discovered America.
The case is OF gold. There are three
dials. one of which embraces the en-
tire face of the watch and is allotted
to the minute hand. The hour and sec
ond hands traverse very much smaller
dials set opposite each other. They
contain no figures. In fact, none of the
dials is divided into spaces like those
which appear on the faces of modern
timepieces. AT the top of the largest
one changeable Roman characters de-
note the hour. and around it, reaching
almost to the point at which the 6

to the fact that many veterans from

lowing were elected at large II, A.
Pugh, A. c. Lillard. G. A. Walker and
W. A. COughauOur.
The convention endorsed the State
administration generally and Governor
Steunenberg's Occur d'Alene policy
specifically. TIE TRIBUNE is pleased
to note Governor Steunenberg's open
endorsement by his party in his home
county. We regard it as becoming
act of courtesy, and one which could
not have been omitted without the in
fiction Of unnecessary pain. The Dem
ocrats of the State should be equally
magnauimOus. Hon. T. Fl. Galloway
is reported to have delivered very
eloquent speech in which he expressed
profound sympathy for Populists and
Silver Republicans on account of the
sacrifices which the exigencies of Dem
ocratic politics had compelled them to
make. The libatiOns were so unctuous
and refreshing that the sacrilicial vic
tins forgot their stripes, kissed the
rod and passed into state of thankful
acquieSence. There is no balm for po-
litical wounds so soothing and inspir-
ing as the eloquenee of the Hon. I.
Hortatory Galloway, accompanied by
the rythem of his own peculiar Midway
Plaisance Minuet.

AFTER COOLING MOTH.
A Government Expert Here to lnves-
tigate and If Possible Discover a
Method by Which the Pestiferols
Insect Can Be Destoyed.

Last Tuesday, Prof. Simons, of
Washington, D. G., accompanied by
Mr.. Mcpherson, president of the Ida
no horticultural Society, was in this
city. Prof. Simofis is sent out by the
government to investigate the codling
moth and its relations to fruit raising
in Southern Idaho. He will not exper-
fence any difficulty in discovering
where the moth stands in respect to
fruit, but he may find trouble when it
comes to breaking up the combination
as the moth is on the inside of the
whole business. However, Prof. ST.
mons is here to investigae Mr.. Moth
with view to exterminating him, and
ne will have the hearty cooperation of
every well-disposed citizen of this Sec
ton. Of all the pests which fruit
growers have to contend with the cod
din moth is the most destructive and
most difficult to destroy. 1t is to Dc
hoped that Withthe assistance of govern
ment and scientific men something can
be done to stay the ravages of this in
sidious depredator, and it is suggested
that The people here should extend to
Prof. SimonS every possible. assistance
in his researches.
