WHILE sweltering under the tenn.
perature that prevailed from 10 to A
o'clock to-day It is pleasant to think Of
the simultaneous expeditions from two
directions to the north pole From this
country Lieutenant Peary has sailed
away with high hopes of finding an
open Polar sea through which he will
sail before gentle, il not balmly breezes
TO the other hemisphere Three weeks
ago DR.. Nansen sailed from Chrlstiana on
his little vessel Fran to force his way
into the Arctic ice near the New Siberian
Islands for the purpose of drifting to the
north pole Dr. Nansen Is equipped for
five years cruise He does not intend
to return unless the ship gets caught in
an ice foe and becomes disabled
so that he is forced TO abandon
her. He will not abandon the
expedition even then, if there is a chance
to proceed with the dogs and sleds which
he carries as part Of his equipment. Seal
ers have reported that the sea around
the New Siberian Islands was quite open
in 1883. 1889 and 1890, aud that within
the past two years during the summer
season there has been very little ice In
that ueighborhood II this condition
prevails this season Nansen will be able
to steam considerable distance north of
the islands before he forces his vessel
into the ice. If he succeeds in that he

terious but dangerous region about
which there has been so much specula
tion. He has faith that he will succeed
in this and that he will not only re-
turn hut return as discoverei
with accurate scientific information.
Both men have undertaken tasks. which.
to the ordinary man, appear more peril
GUS than interesting, more foolhardy
than admirable. That is what many peo
pie said In the days Of Columbus. Those
who do not know what they are talking
about are ever the first enes to proclaim
their ignorance and to expose them
selves. Wise men will wait IL Nansen

ruary, having been cured of the liquor
habit
The graduate remained strictly sober
for FIVE weeks and then plunged into a
protracted debauch, which ended in the
House Of Correction, where he is still
confined The wife seeks damages for
Sl02 25, the sum paid for treatment In
his answer the principal Of the institu-
tion will say.
We can cure man and cause his ap
petite for liquor TO cease, but unless
he wishes TO stop drinking liquor we
cannot stop him We cannot put brains
into his head II a patient leaves here
with the intention Of not drinking again,
he Is a reformed man But, II as soon
as he leaves as he goes among his old
associates, and does not care whether he
drinks or not, he Is apt to return TO his
old habit When he leaves here
liquor is nauseatlng, but by drinking a
little at n time he can overcome that
feeling, and the appetite for liquor will
return
1t appears to us that this Is a retort, it
is not an answer It Is a form OF words
which Degs the question It sets up a
proposition that is not relevant to the
claim Of the wife for damages for non
performance Of contract It admits
that man cannot be cured If be
will not cure himself, and permits the
induction, that, If man Wills to cure
himself, he may accomplish a cure with
out the aid Of the institute Hence the
institute, that being true, is fraud It
proposes to do what it cannot do.
1t is not necessary to search OF
struggle for a new law to cover case
like that. The principle of all old laws
covers such cases, no matter where
found Their application may cause the
principal of this particular institute
some novel sensations, but there is
nothing strange in the principles them

George W. Childs, Of Philadelphia, in
reference TO the proposed fund to be
raised for the Duke Of Verogua:

the distressing financial embarrassment

and without the slightest foundation or
excuse His estate was never large, aud
what little there was Of it has been
wrecked in ruinous but entirely legiti

visit TO America his house at Madrid and
all its contents was seized by his credit
ors TO satisfy judgments and he returns
to Spain homeless and hopeless, so far as
the recovery of his fortune is concerned.
His Grace declines TO accept any financial
aid for himself but would be very CRATE
ful If his family could be provided for.
1t Is therefore proposed to ask the
generous people of the United States

NEW APPLICATIONS Of lAw

The principles Of law do not change.
The science Of the law is the same now
as when the basic axiom of law. "Do
unto others as you would have them do
unto you, was FIRST known OF preached
But the application Of the law is con
stantly changing, so that superficial OBJ
servers think the science of law itself is
changing
Law is almost an exact science in that
its principles cannot change. They are
eternal and unchangeable They are
founded on justice, truth, God.
OF course, II is understood that we do
not refer to the statute laws, which
often have not the remotest reference to
God, to truth or to justice Those laws
are made by the members Of the Lepis
latuFes and City Councils who know not
Joseph.
We referred to this subject few
days ago, in commenting on the suits
that had been instituted in New Jersey
to define the rights, privileges. duties
and liabilities Of bicycle riding on the
public highways The principles Of law
have never been applied 70 bicycles
Those who do not know the science OF
law imagine that there will be some neu
difficulty, because bicycles have. com,
into use recently. That, Of course. Is
a mistake. Equity, a mutual considera
tion for the rights OF others. is as
easily applicable to bicycles and to theh
