THE ANTARCTIC EXPEDITION.
Baron Dickson Awaiting the Australian Con-
tributiOn.

Baron Dickson Awaiting the Australian Con-
From the London Times.
The expedition for the exploration of the
antarctic regions, which was to have been I'M
dertaken at the joint expense of the Australia
sian colonies and Baron Oscar Dickson of Goth
enburg. Sweden, seems to be hanging fire.
Baron Dickson. who is in London at present.
naturally expresses some surprise at the con-
duct of the Australasian Geographical Society.
which originally approached him with refer
ence to the undertaking. The only condition
which he required was that Australia should
contribute $4,000 and he would do all else that
was necessary. He estimates that for suit
able expedition. even on a comparatively small
scale. some thing like ELS. 900 would be wanted
Two of the powerful Norwegian sealing YES
sells. specially constructed for ice navigation
could be purchased for $1,000. A complete
equipment of scientific instruments would
probably cost 1000. but Baron Dickson be-
lieves that such an equipment would be will
ingly supplied by the Swedish government.
At least one of the ships would have to be fur
nished with provisions and other supplies for
two years in case of accident, while the equip
ment of the second ship, the payment of crews
and other expenses would not leave large bal
ance ont of the remaining fS.O00. Baron Dick
son would contribute $4,000, and would take
upon himself the responsibility of obtaining the
remainder. The bulk of it. he believes. he
could obtain i'm Sweden and Norway. though he
might give the Royal Geographical Society ar;
opportunity of contributing if it cared to do
so. At all events. if the Australians will find
the moderate sum of IS, 900 Baron Dickson is
willing to be responsible for the balance.
Although Baron Nordenskjold has made up
his mind to go no more adventurous expedi-
tions yet his objections have been overcome.
and he is willing to undertake the leadership of
this expedition and take with him his son. who
has proved himself of the right metal in a re-
cent journey to Spitzbergen. With Baron Nor
,ienskjold as leader. success might almost be
said to be assured. The plan to send one
ship as far south as possible, say to the neigh
borhood of Mount Erebus. There the expedi-
ton would spend a whole year. making regular
observations and carrying out explorations as
far as practicable. The second ship would take
up its station at the island of South Georgia,
there to be ready for any emergency.
Baron Dickson has thus made every arrange
ment possible. SO far as he is concerned, but
there is no sign of the promised $4,000 from
Australia. There have been meetings in Mel
bourne and elsewhere, the papers have written
stirring articles on the proposed expedition.
Lord Darlington did his best to recommend it
to the colonists, but SO far nothing more sub
stantial than words has been Forthcoming.
True. bazaar or a ball has been talked of, per
haps has taken place, in order to raise the
funds-surely last humilitating refuge for a
wealthy country like Australia.

Keeping Strict Account With the Girls.

Keeping Strict Account With the Girls.
From the Philadelphia Press.
There is a young man in this city as well
known in business circles as he is to a large
number of young ladies. In his business he is
quiet, regular and industrious, and particu-
larly prides himself upon the neatness and ac-
curacy which characterize his books of account.
During the social season he fits about from
entertainment to entertainment, frequently at
tending the opera and play houses, always
having with him some one Of about a score of
girls to whom he pays more or less attention
When asked recently why he had 80 many girls
he said:
''Oh! all girls talk, as they write, very much
alike, but still there is more variety in twenty
thanin one. Besides, keep regular set of books
at home in which 1 enter every cent spend on
them and it affords me considerable amuse-
ment. For instance. l charge cost of theater
tickets, flowers. supper and carriage hire and
then credit it with the amount of pleasure
had as 'Passable time Enjoyed the evening
hugely &c. The girls who afford me the most
enjoyment receive the greater number of invi-
tations, so / think may fairly say that seek
relaxation and pleasure in the same way that 1
attend to my business-on system"

CONCERNING WATER RENTS.
Attorney Thomas Holds That the Commis
sioners Cannot Remit Water Rents,

Attorney Thomas Holds That the Commits.
sionen Cannot Remit Water Rents.
Several days ago PHE STAR called attention
to an interesting case which was sent to the
attorney for his opinion. 1t was a case
concerning water rents and was substantially
as follows: A party refused to pay his
water rent and the same went on
until after the beginning Of the new
water year, when the water was turned off, 1t
is one of the regulations of the water depart
ment that no water shall be turned on until
all water rents have been paid. As the water
was not turned off until after the beginning of
the year the water department insists
upon payment for that year. The party,
in his letter to the Commissioners,
pay up to the end of the fiscal year. Mr.. 3. T.
Thomas, the assistant attorney, in his opinion,
says that he does not see any difference in prin-
ciple between this case and case settled during
the administration Of his predecessor in which
the latter held that the Commissioners could
not remit any part Of the water rent, as the
water rent became due on a certain day and
the place on that day. Mr.. Thomas
says that aside from any DISPOSE
ton to adhere 20 precedents he thinks it I'M
wise, even il the law gave the Commissioners
any power to do 80, TO remit water rents, because
il would establish u scheme of remittances and
refundments based upon the changes in bust
ness, removals, &C.. which would create con-
fusion and tend greatly to increase the labors
of the water department. He says, in con-
clusion. that il seems to him the law does not
permit the water department to turn the water
on until the delinquent rent and cost Of cut
ting off are paid, and for these reasons he
thinks the request should be denied.

Miss Ellen E. Kenyon, of Brooklyn.
is n fine example of what oma with a
will a do. She is principal of a pri-
mary department in the public school
and has 800 children in her charge. But
while doing her schoolwork in a model
n she has also found time to dip
deep into philosophical and m~etaphysi.
cal lore. Her mind is eminently log
ical, and she is an earnest student OF
Herbert Spencer and writers on meta
physics and mental science. At the
same time she is an enthusiast in her
own particular profession, and has pub
lished an admirable little book called
"The Coming School," Miss Kenyon
was one of the ladies who received the
degree of master of pedagogy at the
New York university recently. She
achieved the necessary preparatory stud
les by working outside of school hours.
A young lady says she "looked too love
ly for anything at the commencement,
in her black gown and mortar board
cap."
