Tiiit cry of "alnviue1 is heanl throughout the civilized world be cause of the oonvicttoti of Dreyfus In the ftice of the evidence presented to the court, his second condemna tion is universally regarded as incon ceivably infamous. Thk New York Times announces that hereafter the Sunday edition will be simply a "newspaper." It is assumed this means that the Times will break away from the "magazine" idea which characterize the Sunday issues of so many of the metropoli tan papers. Thkhk appears to be only a vague understanding on the part of Con stables and Justices of the Peace as to the enlarged powers that were vested in them by a legislative act of 1H97. Constables now have powers identical with policemen and can arrest without a' warrant and take be fore a local magistrate any oilender against the peace, or w'no violates borough ordinances. The Justice may impose a line and costs, the line to be paid to the borough treasurer for the use of the borough. American Coal Supply. J. Foster Brown, a British mining engineer, who recently read on article before the Society "of Arts, in Eng land, on the "Exhaustion of the British coal supply," advances the view that in fifty years the most valuable of the coal seams of the British coal fields will be exhausted. It may appear novel and startling to venture the prediction that before the close of the twentieth century, if anything like the present rate of in crease is maintained in the coal out put of the United States, the coal supply of this country will be Hear ing exhaustion, so far us our valuable seams are concerned, but those who have given the matter of our coal re sources serious and Intelligent atten tion are having this conclusion forced upon them, says a writer in the Coal Trade Journal. It Is true that the coal bearing strata of the United States are of suoh vast area as to en courage the view that our coal re sources could supply the world for many centuries ; but the more the various coal fields of the country are being developed, the more we are learning that our coal seams are not continuous sheets which extend over the areas where they are due, but are, on the con trary, generally local deposits. In the present stage of develop ment it would be difficult, if not im possible, to form even an approximate estimate of the amount Of available coal in any given coal field ; but It can be safely stated that there is not one-twentieth the quantity which has been claimed by our geologists. In all of the nine states traversed by the Great Appalachain coal field there are seldom more than one or two seams of coal met of mineable thiokness in any perpendicular sec tion, while there are due ten to twelve distinct eoal horizons, on eaoh of which a ued of mineable thick ness is met in some one locality or another of the coal field. The araag of barren ground are due to several causes to water spades in the eoal marsh at the time the coal vegetation was forming ; to denuding forces, which swept the peattv tissue away in the first stages of the sub sidence of the land, but more gener. ally to the presence of hills of wide extent in the coal plain upon which do vegetation was ever deposited, or was deposited so meagerly that only h few inches of eoal was formed. There are some marked exceptions to this rule, as in the authraoite re gion of Pennsylvania and the Frost burg region of Maryland, where eight or nine different beds of work able height are found in single sec tions. The steadiest and most per sistent Beams of coul are met with on the eastern lines of the Great Ap palachian coal field.

The nmbargo on Lake Superior navi gation by the sinking of the steaomor Douglas Houghton on the Soo passage last Tuesday was lifted at 3:30 o'clock yenterday afternoon. The largest fleet ever accumulated on the lakes. If not In America, began to move soon after, and one vast naval procession headed down the lakes, while another started on its way to Lake Superior. In the two there were over 200 of the largest eraft under the American flag save the foreign liners. The sunken steamer was released by the use of dynamite. It was a time of great rejoicing among the captains ot the blockade fleet, over a hundred of whom were at the scene. They hurried back to their Ships, to prepare for the procession down the river. They soon began to move into position in the Hay lake, where they took their places in the order of their arrival at the locks. The fleet stretches out for miles in Hay lake. Captains are waiting for word from Captain Davis, of the revenue service, to start. They are passing down a third of a mile apart, in order to avoid danger of collision.

The two steamers mot at Etah on Aug. 12 and worked In company under tho personnl direction of Lieutenant Poory in collecting supplies for the winter and the equipment for the next spring campaign. The Windward wa3 ice hound In All Man bay, on the webt side of Kane basin, about 60 mlloa north of Cape Sabine, from Aug. 18. 18D8, to Aug. 2, 1899, being in a sort jf eddy undisturbed by wind or runvn; Tho season wnB ono of contlnuoin calm, with very little snow, the mini mum temperature at the ship being 70 dogrees below zero. All the Wind ward's company, Including ton Esqui maux, were exempt from illness, acci dent or casualty of any kind. Lieutenant Peary and the Hled.ce pin tles wore in the field almost continu ously from Octobor, 1898, to August of this year, and have effected an extra ordinary amount of important woik9. His sledRing Journeys aggregated over 1,000 miles. As soon as tho young ice could hear a sledge Lieutenant I'cary made n care ful reconnafsanoo of the coast line southwpst of All Man bay and cure fully defined tho lands and water he tweon that jmlnt and Cape Sabine. Tin coast line of Princess Marie bay and Duchanan strait, heretofore unknown, was accurately defined, and Haye sound was demonstrated to be a myth This work completed, Lieutenant Peary next made several successful hunting trips and laid in an ample supply of fresh meat, including musk oxen, seals and birds, for the winter. Utilizing tho December moon, he sledged along the ice for 230 miles, over almoc impassible ice, to Fort Conger, til headquarters of the Grecly expedition. He had the misfortune to have both feet frostbitten, which necessitated six weeks' delay and con finement until he could make the re turn trip. Lashed to a sledge, he was hauled all tho way to the Windward, where several of his toes were ampu tated. Corapleto recovery follow ed rapidly, and he now walks as well as ever. Lieutenant Poary found Fort Con ger exactly r.s Gveely 1 - ft It. The table was standing from the last meall and all Ihe other appointments had leinuln ed undisturbed for 1C years. The build ings wore in fair condition, though some of them would not be serviceable much longer. He took possession of all tho property, real and personal, in tho name of tho United States govern ment and posted notices to that effect. He brought away, and is sending home, tho original Greely records, the sex tant of Lieutenant Deaumont, H. N., of the Hares-Markham expedition of 1870-8, recovered by Lieutenant Lock wood, and many private letters and papers of members of Greely's party, u.1 1 of which are to be forwarded to the Peary Arctic club, of New York. Ho also pushed a reconnaissance be yond Fort Conger to Cape Beechy, finding practically the same conditions of Ice and sea as south of the former point. Subsequently he made a second trip to Fort Conger, and in all four parties from the Windward reached that point and returned without other accident than that to Lieutenant Peary himself as a "result of the winter work. Four tons of provisions, two at Con ger and the others .distributed between Cape Sabine, Durville, Loula Napoleon, Frazor and other points not more than 50 miles apart, have been deposited, and both natives and whites engaged in the work have been made so familiar with the route and the caches that all risk to life and limb along this path is practically ended. His winter headquarters Lieutenant Poary has established at Etah, one of the eligible points on the wist side ot Smith sound. Ample supplies for the remainder of the time of the expedi tion, not less than 60 tons, have been landed. He has built a commodious living and working room for himself and his companions, In which they will be thoroughly comfortable during the winter, nnd he has nearly 75 -walrus for native and dog commissary when the field Is taken in February. The winter will be sjent In rest and Foul-Smelling Catarrh. Catarrh is one of the most obstinate diseases, and hence the most difficult to get rid of. There is but one way to euro It. The disease is in the blood, and all the sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures In the world can have no permanent effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe cific! cures Catarrh permanently, forit is the only remedy which can reach the disease and force it from the blood. M,r. B. P. McAllister, of Harrodshurjr, Ky., had Catarrh for years. He writes: "I oould see no Improvement whatever though I waa constantly treated -with sprayi jjgfTk and washea, and differ eminnaung rtmecue In faot, I could feel thai each winter I was worsi than the year prTlouj "Finally it wai brought to my notlof that Catarrh was a blood disease, and alter think ing over the matter, I law It wasunreasonablt to expect to be cured by remedies whloh onlj reaehed the surface. I then decided to tr BT S. 8., and Alter a few bottles were used, I no tloeda nercentlble lmnrovement. Gontlnulna the remedy, the disease was forced out of my syatem, and a complete oure wag the result. I advise all who have this dreadful disease to abandon thelrlocal treatment.whlehhasnevei done them any Rood, and take 8. 8. 8., a rem edy that can reach the disease and cure It." To continue the wrong treatment for Catarrh is to continue to suffer. Swift's Specific Is a real blood remedy, and 1 cures obstinate, deep-seated diseases, which other remedies have no effeot whatever upon. It promptly reaches Catarrh, ana never falls to cure oven the most aggravated, cases. S.S.S.rfhoBlood Is Purely Vegetable, and is the only blood remedy guaranteed to contain do dangerous minerals.
