The. object of the con ference is to improve the condition of women in the church, the state, and the home. And the wide scope of topics undf-r discussion gives unusual interest to the proceeding!.

The resolution was adopted unanimously for the good lady refraired from calling a negative Tote, on the ground that it would lie an insult to suppose that any one present would vote no Tue public uuiiuings an over tne city are again draped in mourning, this time for Justice Waite, the late chief justice for the I'nifed States. The Waite obsequies, which were simple but impofing. took place on Wednesday at noon, in the ball of the house of representatives. They : were attended by both houses or congress and the higher government officials mho occupied the floor of the house, while the public crslleries were filled with the families of sen ators aud representatives, two tickets of admission having been issued to each senator and member of congress, for distribution. The reserved galleries, such as the president's the press and the diplomatic, were occupied by those! for whom they were set asid. In the senate on Monday a bill appropriating $o(K)0 to defray the funeral expenses of the late chief justice was passed without debate. His remains were sent to Toledo, accompanied by six of the associate justices, a congressional committee and part of the Ohio delegation in congresa. It is probable the house will begin debate on the Mills tariff bill to-day and that the discussion will last until the last of May, when the measure I will either be defeated or iBeil !y that bodj.

Kerosene and Diphtheria. A welbhnotvn doctor snys that the fumes of keroKcne, when a lamp is turned low. nie likely to causu diphtheria. The New York board of health, a few ye.iis ago, decided that to this, more than any other cause, the prevalence of this disease was to be attributed.

Children dislike to go to bed in the dark, and the kind mother lets tho lamp remain iu the bedroom, usually turning down the flame, so that the light shall not keep the child awake. Many tad room .no- thns semi lighted at night, and the windows being closed, or raih-ed but slightly, the atmospheric condition is simply deathly. A turned-down kerosene lamp is a magazine of deadly gas that the healthiest lungs cannot safely be exposed to, A l.ohbiUt DisHiiear. F.d.
