Bounded on the east by Smith Sound, on the south and west by Jonea Sound, and on the north by the body of water now known a Hayes Sound, it is nupposed to be a triangular area about twice the size I of the tttate of 'New York. The proposed expedition for Its explor ation has received the indorsement I of the National Geographical Society and the preparations are in charge I of Mr. Roliert Stein, of the Uuited State Geological Survey. The first olijett of the expedition ii to make search rossilie two young SwedlHh naturalists, UJorllng and Kallsteiiius. They started In June, IH'J2. from St. John's, with three men as crew, in a littlo schooner, the Ripple, lu tending to coast along the west shore of Greenland, and col lect Miecimen. Their last letter to Professor Nordenskiold stated that their vessel ran aground in August ol that year, and In October they were preparing to start for Ellesmere Land with provisions enough to last until January 1, 1893. Last June, Captain McKay, of a Scotch whaling ship, found the wreck of the Ripple, and the body of on of the crew, on the Gary Islands. Ho tried to make Ellesmere !and, but his time wan limited, the ice blocked his passage, and he failed in the attempt. The supposition is that if the young scientists are still living they are on Ellesmere tand, and it is hoped that Mr. Stein's psrty may arrive in time to rescue them. The estimated expense of the ex pedition is l 0,000; of this sum 5,- 600 had been subscribed on the ninth of January lant. At that date not less than sixty young men had volunteered to go, though the service of but ten csn bo accepted, unless a larger sum of money Is guaranteed. HARD TIMES PRICES. UvtU UllV-IV.

It Is understood that this wedding will not be long delayed. It will be a quiet and home wedding, witnessed by a family party and Intimate mends, and these will include the Sherman, Cameron, I.odge, Illtt and Hale families, and that is about all. In connection with the Maine an interesting thing is their love fur Dowers.

Tom Reed, as everybody calls him, the congressman from Maine, is a brilliant, clever, daring and audacious politician, and a man of brains and ability as well, but he is uot Infallible country; t,r, in other words, and it seems very strange that he Is leal tender?"

Mr. Reed seems to forget what lie declared with emphasis at that time, aud for which declaration he re ceived the applause of every Intelli gent cltlzn of the Culled Males, that is, that the rule of the majority must prevail, ami that the people of the United States elect members of congress to make laws for the gov ernment of the nation, not to carry on a debating society in the house, the result of which was sound and fury, signifying nothing. So far as Tom I teed icomvrud personally, it is easy to see that hi corobatlveness and natural pugnacity should he aroused by the arrogance and insolence of the confederate brigadiers the men who, with the echo of an enforced oath of allegiance scarcely faded away, venture to dic tate to the loyal North the terms and conditions on which the govern ment of the United States may Is permitted to exist; but Mr. Reed, il he be a statesman, must bear iu mind that his party Is greater than lie can possibly be, and that when In speaks for his party he must sub ordinate not only his personality but his jiersonal views and opinions. On this ground Heed's flllibuster- ing is not pardonable. He would do much better to simply save the rights of the minority by a frank, manly and earnest protest, and then allow the responsibility for legisla tion to rest where Jt belongs, with the democratic majority. Reed wastes powder In fighting a propo sition which he cannot conquer, and at the same time ho negatives his own propositions of two years aim. when he ruled tho majority and in- slnteil, with perfect propriety, that tho nu'Jority must have the hint word Iu all national Icglslatioa.-M.

The Anthropological Society of Washington endorse ths expadltioa laraUklug the HrdraoM. I saw it stated somewhere the other day that colored tssjspreads are out of fashion, aud that only pure white of different textures is used In the best houses that are now being fur nished. Now, this is by no means true. There are, to be sure, conserv stive housewives who can never be persuaded to use any bed-covering but a white Marseilles counterpane, but there are countless other women of refined tastes and with a deep purse who elect for nil sorts of white daintiness to cover their bed, or at least one bed. But w hen there are a number of bedrooms to l fitted up, white In every nsmi ts-coines monot onous, so that hii endless variety or fabrics, Isith exs nsive and low priced, are used to match or har monise with the hangings or other coverings In tlie sleeping room. In furnishing one's house, ns in choos ing one's clothing, all things that are in good taste are in fashion. We are also told every few week that no color but white is uil on tables, that brass and iron Iredsteads are only suitable in hospitals and other place known as "institutions,'' that no flowers are used this winter, or that only a rose of a certain kind la used, and like fictions. The truth is that never were there so many bedstead of bra- and iron used as now, though they are not used to the exclusion of handsome bedstead of oak, birch, mahogany and maple and of white wood enameled in vari ous colors. N. Y. Evening Post, In order to avoid the constant reK- tit Ion. we throw together the follow. ing replies, under one general head "I wnai is money ana wnai mo its functions?" Money is a medium of exchange, and also a commisliiy. It either oesses value through I lie medium of which it is couiHirssl, when gold or silver; or has a credit value when a promise to pay (as a bunk note or grts-nback). Hence Its function is to facilitate buying and selling. A a commodity It is loaned (which is the same as renting it.) "2- Who has the Mwcr to make it, or by what authority, is money made or coined?" The coining of money is one of the power of all governments. "3 Does the constitution state the kind of material or substance of which money shall ls made or coined? No, certainly not. Gold and silver have ts?en the money metals for the civilized world for thousands of years, and there was no need of specifying. "4 Does our constitution or law speak of or contemplate anything but a 100-cent dollar?" The constitution simply grants the power to coin money. The law any the cent shall be the one-hundredth of the dollar. So, if the value of the dollar was to be changed, it would still Is- a "HK). cent dollar." "5 What Is meni.t by a 67-cent dollar?" It refers to the fact that our coinage law says that the dollar shall consist of 25.8 grains of standard gold (one-tenth alloy) or of 412 1-2 grains of standard sliver (one-tenth alloy.) These two coins are called dollars; but as gold Is the standard, and has been for a generation (since iHj.'I), the value of the gold dollar is what is meant when we ssak of a dollar's worth of any article. Comjisred with the gold dollar a silver dollar is worth only a little over 50 cents in actual value; that Is, the silver in it is only worth that much. But it pusses for the same as a gold dollar because any one can take silver dollars to the treasury and act treasury notes in ex change; and for these treasury notes he can get gold on demand at the treasury. Hence the silver dollar Is held up to the gold dollar in value. The fact that there has been, for 20 years, a steady, progressive fall in the price of silver the world over, ac counts for the silver dollar not hav ing a dollar's worth of sliver in it; and In this is the danger from the free coinage of silver dollars. . "6. Is there any money of the world? Can or thsst one tiaintry make money for other countries'" Gold is the only money metal coined by All nations, and a full legal tender in all countries.

It was a torrid day; but fate had la-friended me, for It wa a cushion less third class compartment I had stormed, all open and airy and also empty, as I at first supposed, but In this I was mistaken. There had Iss-n nobody visible to begin with, but on looking across after awhilo I was surprised to see a pair of bright, dark eyes Just appearing alsive the liack of the seats at the farther end of the compartment. These eyes were fixed upon, me in a confident way, and involuntarily I ft-lt the moment they met mine that s flash wf intelligence had parsed between us. The Immediate consequence was that the owner of the eyes, a lanky, dark girl, got up, fixed a struggling bull pup under her arm, where she held it firmly in spite of Its kicks and yelps and snaps, clambered clumsily over the backs of the seats from her end of the commrtment to mine, regardless of sny display ahe might make of lean legs by the way, and sat down opposite to me. "Two's company," ho remarked oracularly. 'Quite so; lait you were two to begin with," I snswered. .. "Counting the bull pup," she said, drawing the creature from under her arm as ahe spoke. " Isn't v he a beauty 7" She held him up by the forelegs and shook hlin playfully, addressing ,hlm the while In tender tones; "Iook at urn's chin, and urn's legs how um bows; and look at urn's werry magnificent nose I" But the puppy, evidently not a- preclatlng these compliments, began again to kick and growl and snap Impatiently, exercises which drew from his delighted mistress assur ance that "he was a game un, den!" as she settled him comfortably usm her lap. He waa already a formid able looking creature, a brindle of exceptionable beauty, Judged, of ciurse, by his own standard of excellence.
