s.THE M1GHTIEsT force for evil in this
world today is a handsome woman attireo
in carnal dress" said Dr. +. Combie
Smith. pastor of the First Methodist
Church IN Omaha, in an address before
the Omaha Wonan's Club day or two
ago. TIL principal object of attack was
the dress of a fashionable woman, which,
the divine said, "gives csrnality express
sion. currency and circulation" A
celebrated commentator on the book OF
Revelation in his note on the 18th chap
ter. where the picture of the sun-clad
woman is given, makes observations which
are more likely to appeal to the good
sense of most people. The woman is rep
resented as clothed with the sun, the
moon under her feet and upon her head
a crown of twelve stars. The writer says:
.Itis sometimes decried as woman's
weakness that she is fond of becoming
attire. and has an irrepressible instinct
for personal adornment 1t is not a
weakness, but an instrument Of power, II
kept within proper bounds. It. is part
Of her nature She may abuse it, and
fall into many silly mistakes and sins by
reason of il, but il belongs to her proper
vomanliness to be as becomingly and APP
propriately arrayed as she honestly can.
She owes it to herself, to her sex, to her
husband, and to society. A slsttern Is
an unspeakable monstrosity to the Divine
ideal"

Paterson, n. j.. Feb. 2O.-An explo-
sion which occurred in the Latin. Rand
Powder Works at Wayne, n. j., nine
miles from this city, before 9 O'Clock this
morning, is reported to have done terri
fic damage to the works. There are
two powder works at the place, those OF
the Lahin-kand Company and Dupont
Company. These works and the houses
of the employees composed the greater
portion Of the town. The shock of the
explosion was distinctly felt here. Later
news from Wayne says that three build
ings were utterly demolished and that
three men lost their lives, while many
Others we're injured.
The buildings destroyed were the dress,
corning, and wheel mills and formed a
part Of the big branch of the Latin Rand
Company here. The buildings were lit
orally torn to atoms and that any person
within their walls escaped, is little short
of miraculous,

population of Omsk, Tomsk, Yakutsk,

Mr.. Rixey and the Old Soldiers.

Representative John F, Rixey and
Gen. Fitzhugh Lee last night addressed
Lee Camp, Confederate Veterans, in
Richmond, in behalf of Mr.. Rixey's bill
allowing Confederate veterans 70 enter
national soldiers homes and providing
for governmeutarpropriations to Confed-
crate homes. The camp, which opposed
the bill, will now indorse il.
The Richmond Times-Dispatch has
the following to say of Mr.. Rixey's
speech:
Mr.. Ri1ey appeared by invitation of the
body, which had previously registered its
formal and unbending opposition to the
proposition, which, it declared, placed the
south.rn man in the attitude Of beggar, and
opened the southern homes to every Yam
kee and negro who might will to come this
way. At the outset he expressed smbarrass-
ment and slight hope Of creating an impres,,
sion upon men decidedly opposed 10 him and
his scheme. Then he set 20 work, and in the
course Of two hours explained and eIhorted.
incidentally, and all the while scoring the
Washington government for its unfairness in
its treatment of the South, in politics and
otherwise. When he was through he had
largely accomplished what at the outset he
had expressed but slight hope of doing.
Something like wave Of enthusiasm swept
over the camp. Gen. Fitzhugh Lee and
Others prominent in the organization spoke
in favor Of the Rixey bill, and former oppo-
nents. who now declared that henceforth
they would endorse the measure, were loudly
applauded.
