Lieutenant Peary is now en- route loi

Greenland. where he will take the His'

He proposes to arrange this summer win

Lieutenant Pearys plan Is to push ior-

ment here Most of the newspapers
were deceived by the report, but the
Mail neatly sums up the situation thus:
"This is the second time that the name
OF the Duke OF Manchester, who has
only reached 20. has been coupled with
that of Miss Goelet. Although he Is
possessed Of three important estates. the
Duke has not a very large income, for
which reason. no doubt. his friends have
been eager to believe any rumors that
he was to marry money. The Duke Is
short OF stature, boyish-looking. and
fond Of amusement. No one who knew
him would regard him very seriously
as q marrying man."

n0rvr EXAGGERATE.

We observe I'm one of our Virginia eX-
changes a statement that with proper
constitutional amendments" our taxes
may be reduced Eat least one fourth
srhls is an exaggeration, and we do not
mink II fair or wise to excite false hopes
II must be remembered that good deai
more than one third Of the taxes now
levied and collected by the State goes
20 purposes Of public education. our
state Government spends about A'ZJo'ooV
per annum upon schools and colleges
souetbing less than a million for schools
something more than $4,000 for the col
seges.
Does any one suppose that these sums
nre to be cut down? No. There Is 1ar
more likelihood that they will DC IN
creased than that they will be decreased
Then. there's the interest upon the pup
lie debt. This Is a very large sum- that
cannot be reduced. The maintenance Oh
-hnatics costs us about $4,000. Possibly
.his may be reduced, but not much.
II would be possible for the Legislature
IN reduce the expenses of the state III
many ways. and it ought to do So but
let us not indulge the hope that anythlhg
ike a % per cent. reduction is possible
practically and politically speaking 1t Is
impossible. Not even the abolition Oh
the present county court system would
enable the Legislature to make anything
like % per cent. cut. We shall DC
fortunate if we can curtah expenses
sufficiently TO give us the extra $4,000 per
annum that will soon be needed 10 pay
per cent. interest upon the century
bonds. And even then we shall nave u
face the prospect of seeing our property
values, and consequently our income
much reduced by the assessment OF lSVV'

A REVELATION.

Well, Buffalo would be a revelation to
them. 1t Is unique. Situation in the
hills of Buffalo, few miles off the At
lantic and Danville road, with which it
is connected by rail, having AL
necessary mail facilities, being easily ac-
cessible from all the large cities, north,
south. east and west and with tele-
graph office on the grounds, 1t Is both
in and out OF the world. The grounds
and buildings are grouped In saucer
in the hills, this saucer having the rim
broken, as it were, just enough TO
WOO the breezes to play through
them. From the rim, as one approaches
Buffalo, the place has n most picturesque
appearance. Buffalo has grown with the
necessities of it's patronage, just as the
old Virginia homestead grew with the
increase of the family. and resembles.
at a little distance, an irreSularly-built
miniature village. But when one draws
nearer he finds that there Is method In
this irregularity. and that his little vii
Iage possesses every comfort, and Is
a model place for a sojourn.

THE ARBITRATION TREATY.
silver Senators Raise Novel Point
Against Its Ratification.

WASHINGTON Feb. 5.-Senator Sher-
man. chairman Of the Senate committee on
foreign relations. has given notice that he
will ask the Senate to go into executive ses-
sion Monday Immediately after the disposal
of routine morning business for the purpose
of taking up the arbitration treaty. 1t is
expected that the motion will be antago-
niZed by those who desire TO have other
measures considered. The motion will con-
fiict directly with the Nicaragua canal
BILL and with that measure out of the
way, with the bankruptcy. the Pacific rail-
roads commission and the Hawaiian cable
bills. the friends of each of these measures
being very anxious 10 secure recognition.
There il no general opposition to debating
the treaty at this time. IL Is probable that
an effort Will be made TO reconcile all con-
fiicting claims to precedence by the steer
ing committee OF the two sides or the
chamber. IL il thought that in this way
the conflict may be averted by arranging
to give the pressing measures snow Tor
limited time. To this end a meeting OF
the Republican steering committee Will
probably be held tomorrow. While the sill
yer senators deny that as such they are
opposing the treaty the fact leaked out to-
day that at the meeting last Saturday Sen
atOr Daniel rasied the point that in case
the United States should adopt the tree
coinage OF silver England would have a
claim under the treaty for the difference
between the value of principal and interest
of American debts held i'm England under
the new system with double standard and
