LAND GRANTS.
Many Acres OF Railroad and Other Liant
EfIl UJr-ad

Many Acres OF Railroad and Other Lands
Still Unpatented.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-There is still
pending in the interior department I'M
settled over 5000 acres of lands
granted to railroads and wagon roads
many years ago. There are various
reasons why these lands have not been
patented in the various companies, the
chief of which Is hat the lands nave
not all been surveyed. Yet there are
vast Quantities of surveyed lands which
are still unpatented. In the past four
years about TO- 600, 900 acres have been
passed to patent to companies claiming
them. At present there are in course
of examination in the general land
Office q great many lists of lands
which will no doubt be patented in
q short time. Commissioner Lamoreaux
believes that all grants where there can
be no question as to the rights Of the
company to the land should be passed to
patent at as early a date as possible, and
it is understood that Secretary Smith
is also of the opinion that it would be
well to have these unquestioned selec-
tons of grants patented and disposed
of. The records show that during the
fiscal year ended June 30 not much
more than 500, 900 acres were patented
in railroad grants, while in previous
years the amounts nave been larger,
reaching 1900, 900 acres in 1891, and D.
900, 600 in 1892, and nearly 1900, 900
acres IN 1893. With the mineral land
difficulty settled and the proposition
for the survey of railroad lands as fast
as h companies desire, there is a pos
sibility of large increases in the
amounts passed to patent in the next
few wears.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 26.-The little
steamer Falcon. with the Peary relief
party and members of the expedition
on board, arrived yesterday. Long
before the vessel reached her moorings
thousands of people had gathered at
the wharves in the vicinity to welcome
the explorers. As soon as the Falcon
was tied to the dock, Mrs- Peary, with
her baby and an Esquimaux girl, whom
Mrs. Peary brought with her,
were escorted aboard a train for Wash
ington, the home Of her mother. The
brave little woman showed plainly by
her manner that she was much cha
grined because Of her husbands de-
termination to remain in the Arctic
regions. She declares she Is going
north again next summer and bring
him back to civilization IL she has to
drag him.

Of the relief party, says the expedition

The very latest idea in music is the
sale of songs, sonates and symphonies
by weight. According to q German
musical journal, this s~trikingly orig
inal system has just been introduced
by a Berlin house. A kilogramme of
songs costs the purchaser two and a
half marks-about a shilling per pound.
Piano music, whether for I'VE or four
hands, runs a trihe higher, viz, three
marks the kilo. The symphony heads
the list at the uniform price of four
marks the kilo. The system, it appears,
does not admit the allowance of dis
