OLD POINT COMFORT. VA, May /.

LYN.-May-Day on the warships OF the
flying squadron found beautiful weather
and peaceful conditions at Old Point, al
though about Hampton Roads evidences
were seen OF warlike preparations. The
work of laying mines and torpedoes in
the harbor continued all day in charge OF
the army engineer corps. under Colonel
Frank. 1t Is certain that plans have been
made. and laid for this squadron's work.
but no specific orders are here.
The squadron is in perfect and very
formidable readiness for sea, and can
leave at an hours notice. The story that
the Ram Katahdin is attached to the
squadron is untrue. The converted yacht,
now known as the Scorpion. and which Is
in command OF acknowledgements
Mark arrived at o'clock this afternoon,
and anchored with the fleet OH Old foint-
1t is understood the Scorpion is to be the
dispatch-boat of the squadron, but she Is
also equipped for fighting.
Officers of the fleet believe that the
Scorpion is a splendid addition TO the
squadron. She can make IS knots, is pro-
tected by slde-armor and has fine bat
ers. For torpedo-destroying she would be
unexcelled.

DIR. Hoge nt Grace-Street.
A fine congregation filed Grace-Street
Presbyterian church last evening, to hear
Dr. Moses ID. Hoge, who exchanged pull
pits with Dr. Jere Witherspoon. Dr. HoSe
preached a sermon OF great power anu
eloquence taking as his theme the dis
appointment of Moses In not being per-
mitted to enter the Promised Land, ana
the final fulfilment of his aspiration IN
his translation to Heaven from the sum
nit of Mt. Nebo. The eloquent preacher
illustrated from the history OF Moses ana
other characters in the sacred Writings
that in spite of apparent disappointment
all noble aspirations are eVehtualy rear
lied. and frequently in far grander mea-
sure thar men have ever dared to nope
for. The decree Of Jehovah in forbiddlng
Moses to enter the Promised Land APP
peared TO be hard, and the fate OF the
noble man who had conducted the chill
dren or Israel from Egypt through the
wilderness to the borders of the Promised
Land was one OF the saddest In all MS
tory. Yet the honor that God showed hlrn'
and the supernatural glories into wnicn
he was permitted TO enter Ear surpassed
the pleasure he would have experienced
from the fulhlment OF his wish to cross
the Jordan and see the beautiful noun
tains of Lebanon. SO Ii Is now
our noblest aspirations often mee'
with disappointment In this hie'
only to be realized in the world to come
AS the great preacher approached the
climax of his splendid discourse, he spoke
with great energy and power, ana those
who were fortunate enough TO hear nm
declare the sermon one of the most beau
tiful and comforting ever delivered In
this city Just before the sermon the choii
sang appropriate stanzas from the hymn
There Is a Land of Pure Delight ana
at it's conclusion the grand old hymn
Jerusalem. My Happy Home" was sung
with fine effect. The whole service was
a blessed benediction.

prevailed In February In certain colo
MES OF Australia show II TO have been
one OF the most fearful natural vista
lions OF modern times. The water In
the wells and streams dried up and
large rivers shrunk TO tho size OF
bitches, miles and miles OF farms were
burned over, and townships were blot
ted out by bush fires. Tho shipping
was stopped by the dense clouds OF
smoke. The fish In the rivers and the
cattle and sheep on the plains were de-
stroyed and no one knows how many
human beings were lost. The towns
and cities were filled with crowds OF
half-nakod and Reconstruction people
who had lost everything they had In
the world. Following the awful Bills
tcring heat came storms and tornadoes
which added to the terror and then cpl
denies began their deadly work. The
visitation extended as far south as Mel

having no wheat TO export the Austria
lians have had to purchase and have
been sending their gold to san Fran

Tho large increase In the consump-
ton of sugar in the world has made
the yield of that staple the subject OF
considerable investigation. The nor
nal yield of sugar In tho world Is
S.OOO,OOO tons per annum. OF which
something over half comes from bects.
The cane sugar comes chiefly from the
West indies and the island OF Java.
The growth Of the bcet-sugar industry
In the United States has become
very important item I'm our domestic
trade. In 1888 our product was $500
tons; IN 1890 II was 1900 tons; In 1894
II was 10000 tons, and HIST year II
reached 1900 tons, and the business
IL as yet In its infancy. Very much OF
this Increase IL due TO the bounty paid
30 sugar producers by the government
between July. 1891. and July, 1898.
That sugar Is as necessary ns salt for
human food is claimed by medical men,
but the amount consumed per capita
seems 10 bear no relation 10 the actual
Necessities Of the human race. 1t seems
TO 10 rule that in those countries
where the spirit OF navigation, com
merco. travel and colonization il strong
the general consumption of sugar ia
large. whereas In those countries where
such spirit IL not dominant the de
mand for sugar Is diminished In Eng
land. which ~ clearly first among the
maritime nations, the consumption of
sugar Is so pounds per capita annually;
IN Denmark II Is 45; In Holland, 81; IN
France, 30; In Norway and Sweden, %;
In Russia 10; In Italy, Z; In Turkey, 4;
In Grcccc. 0; and I'm Servia, 4. In the
United States the consumption Of sugar
per capita has very steadily Increased
for many years. In 1878 the amount
WIS "a pounds for each individual, In
1881 II was A pounds, In 1855 II was 80
pounds. in 1891 II was GO pounds. but
I'm 1897 Il WIS On pounds. IL does not
seem to make much difference with the
use OF sugar whether or not nation
produces Il, for In Austria, the sugar
yield OF which Is very lrago. the people
use only ~ pounds each. yet In Switzer-
land, where no sugar M all is pr,oducsd.
the In dividual consumption Is A
pounds. one would naturally suppose
that the two peoples who use the most
tea would use substantially the same
quantity OF sugar, but take England
and Russia. the two great tea-drinlxlng
peoples OF Europe; the one uses 80
pounds of sugar per capita and the
other only 10. There is no doubt that
very large proportion Of the sugar
used by a nation Is eaten In the form
Of confectionery. Candy is used moro
and moro by individuals who havo long
since ceased 10 be childr,n. and while
few years ago candy mandatory
was a raro thing. even IN this country,
the bonbon box flllcd with SWEETS Is
now generally 10 10 found on the table
In the Stting-room OF the well-to-do

the theater people are frequently seen
with box of choice confectionery,
which they are eating with infinite en-

Lands Whore Prisons Are Unknow,

Lands Where Prisons Are Unknown
There are no prisons In Iceland. There
are not even any police In that country.
The people are so honest that there Is
no need of such guardians of peace and
property, nor places of punishment.
The history of Iceland for one thousand
years records no more than two thcfts.
OF these two cases one was that of n
native who wns detected after stealing
several sheep. but as he had done 80
to supply his family, who were suffer
Ing for want of food, the stigma at
tached to his crime was considered suf-
ficient punishment The other theft
was by German, who stole seventeen
sheep. But rs he was In comfortable
circumstances and the robbery was ma
llcious, the sentence passed upon him
was that he should sell all his property.
restore the value of what he had stolen.
and then leave the country or be execut-
ed, and he left at once. There Is, of
course, provision for the administration
OF Justice, which consists, first Of all,
In the sherif's courts; next, by appeals
to the court Of three judges at Reyk-
javik. the capital; and. lastly. IN all
criminal and most civil cases, to the SUI
preme court at Copenhagen. the capital
of Denmark, of which kingdom the ISL

nor lawyers, and being absolutely des-
ttute of both paupers and criminals.
