guage" has given way to the influences
of modern times, and the education is
given in the language of the people who
have reared these institutions and use
them.
1t would be very interesting could we
know what all these universities orlgl-
nally cost, and what their money value
now is. 1t would show what an estl-
mate Chrlstendom puts upon education,
and how much it is willing to pay to
promote it. The expense of this vast in
vestment is still going on. These insti-
tutions must not only be kept up, but
they must he improved, New edifices
must be built, libraries must be con-
stantly enlarged, scientific apparatus in
multiplied forms and never ending i'm
provements must be provided, museums
must be created and perpetually en-
laTged, and money in a hundred ways is
needed and must be expended in carry
ing forward the great and benefcent
work.
What the total number of students in
nll the universities of Europe now is not
eTly reported. The number of those re-
ported, however, is very near 40, 900,
and were they all reported the grand re-
suit would be an army of from IT'S, 900
to 200, 900 men. And this vast host of
young men, many of them of the best
blood and best brains of all the, nations
OF Europe, are heng educated and
trained, not in the noble art of war, but
IN the far nobleI arts of peace, and SO
ntted for the performance of the highest
duties OF citizenship, and thus also for
advancing the intelligence, the virtue
and the welfare OF mankind.

The directors organized with the choice OF
Edward II. Daveis as president and Samuel
Rolfe treasurer and clerk.
President E. IL. Daveis made sthe follow
ing report:
The consumption of gas for the year END
ing on the 30th ult.. was 60.945.400 feet.
against 55.S36,6 600 feet for the preceding
year, gain of 5, los, 800 feet.
six thousand ore hundred and fen tons
of coal were carbopized, and 113 tons of
naptha. yielding 67.791. 600 feet of gas of
Clio candle power, being at the rate of 4.S6
feet per pound of coal and naphtha. The
rate was 4.93 per pound the preceding year.
The net income from sales of gas was S39,-
295. co. against $39,314. 90 the year before, ,and
from coke and coal tar Sll.0l6.00 against
$ll. .5S2. 90 the previous year.
Owing to the strikes at the mines in the
spring of'94 our supply of coal gave out and
we were compelled TO purchase two caIgoes
of inferior quality at high price. Hence
the failing off in our net receipts and in
the yield of gas per pound Of coal, notwith-
standing the increased. d.consumrtion.
We have 3.l91 consumers an increase of
70. and have put in 37.new service pipes.

three inch street main have been laid, IS
feet of four inch. and a53 feet of smaller
wrough iron pipe in place of mains.
Two hundred and three gas stoves have
been sold at cost. making $40 now in use.
One thousand four hundred and ffty-six
Welsbach incandescent gas lights have been
sold. These reduce the consumption of gas
when substituted for other gas burners. but
in many cases they take the place OF other
illuminants.
The principal renewals at our works for
the current year will be of eight benches of
retorts in the westerly section of the retort
house, comprising forty new retorts to be
set over improved regenerator furnaces
with iron fronts. and with new cast iron
floor around them-estimated to cost about

A NAVAL NOVELTY.
Court-Martial of an officer for Per-
tury-Graham Case.

WASHINGTON, April 30-The court
martial of a naval officer for perjury Is
a novelty in naval experience In the
United States so far as the best memo
ries 60 This, however. is the leading
specification under which Medicai-lnspec-
tor Ed. Kershner. feet surgeon of Admit
raj Neade's squadron. has been ordered
by Secretary Herbert to appear before a
court-martial at the New York navy
yard on Monday May 9Th. The detail OF
the court consists of Rear-Admiral John
c. Walker (prusidenp, Commodore Rush
X. Wallace, Captains Albert Kantz Theo.
r. Kane. Winfield S. Schley, Silas Casey,
and Henry L. Picking, Medical-Directors
Edward s. BoRert and Henry W. Wells,
Neutrality-suspicious. Charles ii. Whlte ana
Thomas n. Penrose. and First-Leutenant
c. Ii. Lauchhelmer.
The first charge relates to violation
of the naval regulations by DIR. Kershner
in forwarding privately TO Surgeon-Gene-
raj Tryon and Medical-DirectOr Delavan
Bloodgood (retired) sub-cOpies of Captain
Eyans's report. with Admiral Meade's en-
dorsement, regarding the failure OF the
Doctor to go as ordered on board Nova
Scotian vessel at Bridgetown, Barbados,
In response to an emergency call. These
documents were subsequently published
In newspapers In the United States.
The second charge Is that OF seanda-
lous conduct TO the destruction of good
morals. and It's first specification recites
that DR.. Kershner. before a court OF In
qury on the New York at Kingston,
upon oath testified that no copy of any
part Of the correspondence had left his
hands except second endorsement of
the Admirars. well knowing that his
sworn testimony was false and intended
to deceive.
Naval officers declare there Is no pre-
cedent for such a charge. In March, 1872,
Commander James ID. Graham, command
ing the monitors at Richmond, was CON
victed Of simple falsehood, but not OF
perjury.

LONDON. April 30-Managua (Nicara-
gua) advices state that President Zeiaya
and his Cabinet will agree to pay the
81, 500 smart-money demanded by Great
Britain In London within nfteen days
but ask as a further condition that the
British ships be first taken out OF the
harbor of Corinto. This preliminary Is
strongly insisted upon on account OF the
condition OF feeling in the country. which
otherwise might render compliance with
the ultimatum, even In its modified
form. impossible
Great Britain's answer TO the request
has not yet been given.
FEAR OF REVOLUTION.
WASHINGTON. April 3o.-The action
of Secretary Herbert in ordering the
Alert and the Atlanta to Nicaragua posts
was based, as stated by Mr.. Herbert yes
terday. on the reports in the newspapers
of civil strife over the British occupa-
ton of Corin,o. but 1t should be added
ttat Hon. Warner Miller, president or
the Nicaragua Canal Company, was
mainly instrumental In causing such
positive steps to be taken Mr. Miller
impressed on SECRETARY 'bfohdh hi'N -
rotary Herbert the danger that existed
to the canal property In the event OF
a revolution. and no delay was lost in
serding teegraphic orders TO the two
naval vessels after Mr.. Miller had tho
roughly explained his view OF the situa-
sion.
PROTECTION OF CANAL.
In the event revolution should occur
and should centre In the vicinity or the
canal. marines and ue-Jackets will be
landed from the United States ships to
give protection to the property.
This course has been decided on. and
was frankly admitted by officials. There
Is no direct treaty stipulation permit
ting the United States TO land troops on
Nicaragua soil, although the Clayton
Bulwer treaty allows Great Britain and
this country To act in that regard through
mutual consent, but the principle mas
been established by this government. ana
has never been questioned, that Ameri-
can troops may be landed on Nicaragua
territory TO protect the interests OF
American citizens in the canal property
CANAL COMMISSION.
In this connection, it is interesting tc
note that instructions Will be sent the
commander OF the Montgomery. which
will carry the canal commission from
Mobile TO Greytown, to send guard
with the commissioners when they &c
ashore in pursuance Of their duty.
Prior to going to the Cabinet meeting
to-day Secretary Gresham did not see
