?~?? THE PEOPLE WIN A Democrat Elected to Succeed a Republican in the House. WON A GREAT VICTORY Wipes Out a Hopuhlinui Plurality of Over Fourteen Thousand ami Carries the District hy Nearly Six 'iiioiisaiKi to flu* Great Surprise of His Political Opponents. A dispatch from Brackton, Mass., says the national political weathercock turned to the Democrats in Massachusetts on Tuesday, when the old colony section, one of the Republican strongholds of the State, placed Eugene N. Foss of Boston, one of the country's leading exponents of reciprocity with Canada, in the Congressional seat of the late William C. Levering. Mr. Foss accomplished what was regarded as almost a political miracle, turning a Republican plurality of 14.250 into a Democratic victory of 5.G4 0. The vote was: Eugene NT. Foss. of Boston (Democrat.) 14.0 SO. William U. Buchannan, of Brockton (Republican,) 9,340. It was the most overwhelming defeat .that the Republicans have met in Massachusetts since Governor Bates was overthrown by William L. Douglass, six years ago. The result is considered of more than State-wide importance, for Mr Vnoo r?4 ii it. ? i* ? - ? j- linn i ii 111111* u in*' louri" cmii.li district 011 national questions and the people backed him up with a whoop. It was the first contest to be decided by the voters since the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill became operative, and had a peculiar interest on that account. Mr. Fobs, who has figured in several campaigns, first asc a Republican, and later as a Democrat, with moderate protectionist leanings, left the Republican party last year on the issue of Canadian reciprocity, and became the Democratic candidate for Idcutentna Governor, lie failed by only 8,0000 votes to carry the State at that time. The 'high cost of living, the Democrats charged in the campaign to the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill and the failure of the Republican party to properly supervise the trusts. The fourteenth district has been the most consistently Republican district in Massachusetts, having never before elected a Democrat to Congress. The remarkable shift of votes is tiiflicut to analyze. The Republican leaders admit that their party, in the gist, was divided. Twenty-five tfhousand ballots were cast, which is about four-fifths of the average vote in the three past Congressional elections. Congressman-elect Foss is a prominent manufacturer, banker and capitalist of Boston. T-i - . ^ UUU I/CUII L W li:t' defeated for Congress in the eleventh district.

Father Lambert Louis Conrady is dying of leprosy among the leper colony near Canton, China, according to letter received. (Father Conrady labored among the lepers in the Wawaiian Islands for eight years before going to China. Before setting out for China he spent two years lecturing in the United States raising about $30,000 for his project. He bought an island in the river sixty miles from Canton, transported there 500 lepers and built them shelters. This took $10,000 of the money, and from the remainder fio had an income of $1,000 a year. As he was physician, nurse, attendant, office force aud executive head for the colony, and as food cost only three cents a day for each person. he was in a fair ?

The Calhoun Advance says: "An unusual sight which created considerable inquiry and comment 011 our streets this week was several loads of dry peppers grown and prepared for shipment to Baltimore, by Mr. J. E. Wannainaker, who planted several acres last year as an experiment. Mr. Wanna maker says he is pleased with the experiment, the crop having made him as much money per acre as his cotton crop. He will plant pepper again this season." (livo Ilini u Hand. "See here, you busy farmer," says Capt. Chas. Petty, who conducts the agricultural department of the Spartanburg Journal, "if you have a neighlH>r that is down with grip and not able to work, push things at home and go and give him a day or two of your best work. It will do him a world of good and be your eternal gain." ^ TOOK PLACE OF PLOW OYNAMITK USKI> TO IIIIKAK IP PLANTING LAND. Fight Hundred ('liar^'M of the Kx? plosive liiiried ill the Fnrth and Then Set Off. The Spartanburg Journal says J. Henry Caldwell, a farmer living in the Ardella section of that county, four milftsi frnm Smii'tnnlniri' Tnnu (lay afternoon broke up an acre of land with eight hundred charges of dynamite, the explosive being used for breaking the land for cultivation instead of the plow. Mr. Caldwell claims that blasting land with dynamite is the best method for suhsoiling, and that it can be done more cheaply than with a plow and hired help. The method employed by Mr. Caldwell is unique and unheard of in the county and the result will be watched with interest by many farmers in the state. Dynamite, one of the most powerful explosives known, is used extensively in blasting rock, mining, sinking battleships, railroad engineering, blowing up stumps n fields, etc., but never has it been tested in breaking land for cultivation. Sometime ago, Mr. Caldwell, who is of an orininal turn of mind, decided that land could be broken with dynamite charges and in order to put bis idea to a test he buried a stick of dynamite in the earth and touched off the fuse. The explosion that followed literally tore up the earth. He argued that if one charge of the explosive would losen up the earth in such a manner that a whole acre field could be easily broken in the same way. Tuesday morning Mr. Caldwell set his dynamite sticks in an acre field, burying each stick far down in the soil. When the work had been completed he notified bis farmer friends ami several citizens of the city that he intended to blow up an acre field that afternoon. The news passed rapidly over the county and there was a large crowd on hand to witness the novel method of preparing fanning land for cultivation. HUNG THKM. Two are Lynched For Part in Jail Delivery. At Marion, Ark., Hob Austin and Charleg Hichardson, negroes, were lynched at an early hour Friday morning in the court house square by a mob of fiOO citizens with aiding and abetting a jail delivery that occurred there Monday night. Richardson was arrested in Memphis and while on the way to the local jail a mob overpowered Sl.eCff Lewis and secured the prisoner lie confessed to complicity in ailing the escape of the prisoners and implicated Hob Austin. The latter wa? immediately apprehended and it looked as if the trembling prisoners would be hanged on the spot. Cooler heads prevailed and the two men were given over to the sheriff. At three o'clcok Friday morning a mob quietly formed and marched to the jail. The negroes were secured and hanged to a tree in front of the court house. The mob was orderly and went about its work in a business-like fafthtr?n The bodies of the victims were cut down at seven o'clock Friday morning and were turned over to the negro friends for burial. HAD A CLOSE CALL. Little Girl Falls Five Stories but Was Not Hurt. At New York Mary Davis, a 13yoar-old school girl, is in good health and cheerful spirits despite the fact that she fell backward from a fire escape live stories up, in Harlem Thursday and landed plump 11 a basketful of wet clothes in the back yard below. She was scarcely scratched. As she struck the basket with a damp thud. Mary narrowly missed Miss Peter Little, a janitress, who was taking clothes from the basket and hanging them on a nearby line. Mrs. Little fainted and so did Mary, who was found unconscious but unhurt on the basket. They Had Warm Time.

When and Where It Can l?o Seen to Best Advantage The comet is still far away but is faintly visible with a good opera t glass in the west after sunset and is i rapidly growing brighter. It will i/1 uuiiim v oe visible to the nacked eye by the middle of April, but it will then be in the morning sky and ^ one must look for it in the east about two hours before sunrise. On May 14 hive comet will pass directly between the earth and the sun and will ' ho only 13,000,000 miles from the earth. This will be its closest approach to the earth and after this date the comet will move rapidly away from the earth and sun and will soon he lost to view. On account of its rapid motion it will be seen in the west again in the evening from ^ May 20 until the early part of Juno, \ when it will fade rapidly as it has- (fc tens onward along its outward path. iFor some days before and after May 18, if the prognostications of astromomers are correct, the comet will be a magnificent object. Its head is already over 190,000 miles in diameter and its tail is more than 5,0 00,00 0 miles in length and constantly growing. Without doubt the brilliant tail will extend fully onethird the distance from the horizon to the zenith during its close approach to the earth, and the earth may be enveloped in the tail as it sweeps past us on the 18th of May, ^ But as a comet's tail is exceedingly flimsy, being nothing more than tiny particles of gas or flecks of dust, its visit to us will cause us no inconvenience. On April 4 the comet may be seen in the morning in the east It will rise at about 5 o'clcok. On April 16 it will riso at 4 a. m. On April 24 it rises at 3.30 a. ra. On May 14 it rises at 3 a. m. After May 20 it will be seen 1a the west after sunset. On May 20 it sets at 7.45 p. m. On May 25 it sots at 10.30 p. m. On May 30 it sets at 10 p. m. After the 1st of June the comet will be faint and will soon disappear from sight. ? Mr. Ballinger thinks the coal will last 7000 years.
