PElAGiC SEALING.


II IL to be Totally Suspended for Nom-
Der Of Year,.
WASHINGTON, January 19.-The Secre-
tary OF the Treasury has about completed
his regulations for the government OF
vessels employed in fur seal fishing dur
ing the coming eeason. These regula-
tions, it lie said, will not materially differ
from those in operation during last eea-
con. Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British
Ambassador, had . conference with Mr..
Carlisle to-day, and it 10 thought that in
essential particulars the regulations to
be issued BY the British government will
not materially differ from our own. An
other matter, however, Of far greater
importance to the sealing industry lie
nov under consideration. Assistant Sec
:etary Hamlin last summer visited the
pribylof Islands, and investigated the
whole sealing question. He has nov
about completed his report to the Secre-
tar. on the subject. The report has not
been made public, but it will chow the
greatest menace to the life OF the seal is
pelagic sealing and not the number per-
mitted to be taken on the islands. II
will also show that the action of the
Paris tribunal has proven to have fallen
abort OF preventing the wanton slaugh-
ter of zeal life, which may coon result in
the total destruction of the herds, since
seals may be freely killed sixty miles
from shore. As these are moetly females,
the increase of the herds 10 prevented.
Another provision Of the Paris award
which is said to have been abortive il
that no firearms shall be used within the
eixty-mile zone. The most successful
natives, it lie stated, never use firearms
the spear or harpoon being far more ef
fective, and it is in general use. In view
Of these facts it is believed steps an
about to be taken to secure England,
consent to . modification Of the Parii
award, having for its object the tota
suspension for number Of years OF pc
lagic sealing within the Behring Sea. N
measure less heroic than this, it il
stated, can prevent the ultimate extinc
ton OF seal life in these Northern waters

Naval Appropriation Biii.

WASHINGTON, January 2l.-The sub
committee Of naval affairs has agreed to
report an appropriation for three battle
ships on the lines recommended by the
Secretary OF the Navy in his last annual
report. The ships are to be about TO-
0o0 tons displacement. An appropria-
ton was also reported for twelve torpedo
boats and to increase the force Of en-
listed men by 1900. The bill appropri-
ates from &3,O00, 900 to $4,000 900 more
than the last appropriation, due to the
fact that il carries a heavy deficiency for
armor plate not provided for in the last
bill. The cost OF the battle ships lie linn
tied TO a, oO0, 900, and one 10 to he built
on the Pacific Coast. Considering the
superior effectiveness Of rapid.tiring
gums. which was clearly demonstrated
by the Yalu river fight, the committee
has made provision for large number

established Church in Wales was
doomed, but every body must remember
that the House Of Lords presented a

which the Welsh had set their hearts.
The position Of the Lords was the su-

government resolution dealing with this
question should be submitted it would
involve the dissolution Of Parliament
Before the dissolution, however, he
wished Parliament to deal with the

San Francisco, January l9.-It is not
improbable that two race meetings will
be running in full blast in this city within

OF land was purchased near Ingleeide for
the purpose Of building . new race track
thereon. Tom Williams Was one Of the

OF the other shareholders buying his

Williams Gays that such . scheme will

YOUTH RENEWED.
What tin Magic OF Modern sclonoe Has
Accomplished.

What tho Magic OF Modern Scionce Has
Accomplished.
At q recent meeting of medical u.s.
ISOLATION in Philadelphia one OF the
speakers drew attention to the signifi-
cant facts that the average length
of life is increasing and that the period
of activity. in which the best work is
accomplished, with both men and
women is extending. The advance Of
sanitary and hygienic science, says the
baltimore American, has offered fair
prospect to the average man and
woman for increase of days, and mod
ern invention, by lessening the wear
and tear cntailed by the disoomforts of
former generations, has still further
prevented the waste of vitality and
nervous enorgy. Life is also length
ened In another way, by the fact that
time Is minimiaed, and that travel and
oil necessary communication now take
up marvelously short space Of modern
life, leaving so much moro time to do
vote to other objects that the practical
effect is to add more days to ones 40
count.
With this increase OF life and this
extension of activity man Is far
younger to-day than his ancestors were
ut given ago Tho magic Of modern
times has literally performed that i'm
possible miracle of oldcn times and
lcgends-thc renewal Of youth Tho
wearing drudgcry of lnbor has been
vastly Eghtcned on the one hand,
whilo broader interests on the other
keep tho modern brain from the rust
ing process of age narrow lives and
restricted ideas formerly brought on it,
ct 2 time when that brain is now in its
prime
Yet we hear all about us complaints
that the rush and wear of modern life
Is hurrying mon into premature graves
at increasing rate. 1t is sadly true
that the great virtue of temperance, OF
moderation in all things, has not been
assigned its due Importance In this
vast scientific development, 1t is in
spite of the advantages OF tho times,
not because of them, that this longer
life is not the lot of more. We appre-
ciatc the stores Of vitality laid up by
them for us, but will not resist the
temptation to be Incorporate in It's use
The youth and strength of the brain
and body are drawn upon too frequent
IL. We will not be content to live
within our vast means of vitality, but
draw recl5lessly upon tho fund, until
nature refuses to honor our drafts, and
we find ourselves bankrupt Tho bust
ness man OF to-day puts into his career
of comparatively few years the energy,
the thought, the vigor, that formerly
spread over tho enterprise of ccntu-
ries. We speculate with our vital en-
ergics, and sometime we stake all on u
single throw. But If we do not make u
safe investment of youth and health, it
is not for lack of the opportunities of
| the times.
