The Supreme Court OF this State, in
the case OF Wilson w. Void, IS Pa
ciiic 223, has decided that the act of
the Legislature of 1897, providing that
when real estate is sold on execution,
foreclosure or other judicial proceed
ings, which at the time of such sale is
subject to redemption, the judgment
debtor, or those claiming under him,
shall be entitled to possession of the
property during the period allowed by
law for redemption, and also the rents,
issues and profits, is constitutional as
regards mortgages executed, and debts
incurred, prior to the passage of the
law; that such enactment relates to
the remedy, and does not impair the
obligation of the contract; that the
prior law giving the purchaser the
right of possession and the rents was
matter of favor which the legislature
might remit at any time. When
Judge Millett was on the bench he so
ruled, and n number of our local at
torneys with members of the bar
throughout the State disagreed with
him and contcndcd that this law was
void when applied to previously exc
cuted contracts.
DIR. Riley, while he did not make Il
fortune from his two years of pros.
pecting in Alaska, realized enough
from his mining ventures the last few
months OF his stay to return without
serious loss. He accounts for the
"silver-threads- among-the. gold" tint
of his whiskers by the remarkable
changes noted in that region of the
fur OF all alternating animals. When
found in their winter seclusion,
their coats are white as snow, which
during warmer weather assume the
darker hues, and he thinks that hav-
ing become acclimated, his hirsute
adornment has followed the usual or
der of change peculiar to the latitude.
He notes another peculiar character
istic of that bleak country. During
the long days, lasting several months
in that region, the animals have
their periods of rest and retirement,
corresponding with the length of day
and night, in the temperate zones.
Chickens will go to roost at regular
intervals corresponding with the
day and night nearer the equator, and
the cock announces an imaginary
midnight and dawn by the same clar-
ion notes of his "civilized" brother.
All the brute creation, by that unerr-
ing instinct with which nature has so
amply endowed them, observe this
universal rule by period of rest that
corresponds precisely with the repose
of creatures existing where such alb
normal conditions do not exist.

REVISION ORDERED.
First Step Toward the Re-
lease of Capt. Dreyfus.
A New CourtmartiaI Is Ordered to
Convene at Rennes.
The Decision Is Received With Much Favor
Throughout the World.

Paris, June 4.-The court of cassa-
ton, Saturday, rendered a verdict in
favor of revision of the Dreyfus case,
and ordered a new court martial to
sit at Rennes so miles from Nantes,
for the trial of the prisoner
The decision, which was pronounced,
at $40 p. NJ, says the prisoner is to be
retired on the following question:
is Dreyfus guilty of having, in 1894.
practiced Vaccinations or had COM
munications with a foreign power or
its agents with view of facilitating
acts Of hostility in the case of war
with France. or having furnished the
means therefor by furnishing notes or
documents retracted on the Dor
dereau?"
Previous to the announcement of the
verdict, crowds of people assembled at
the palace Of justice and in its neigh
borhoOd. awaiting the decision. Per-
feet calm prevailed.
The audience received the decision
with cries of "Vive la Justice" "Vive
la loi."
When the doors of the court of cas-
sation were opened, an immense crowd
of people attempted to rush through
the entrance, and for a time there was
great confusion and uproar.
The session opened at 3 o'clock, when
the president of the court, NJ. Mazeau.
after reminding the audience that all
demonstrations were interdicted, gave
judgment in the following tenor:
The court. after hearing the report
of the premier president of the civil
chamber. the prosecutor generals find
ngs, the application of Maitre Monard
counsel for Nine. Dreyfus), under the
new article 443. paragraph 4. of the
code of criminal procedure, to the eff
feet that a revision of judgment can be
demanded when new facts are produc-
ed or unknown documents showing the
innocence of the condemned in view of
the judgment of Oct. 20. 1898, rendered
by the criminal chamber, ordering an
inquiry and declaring the demand for
a revision of the Dreyfus case was pre-
scented in proper form; and in view of
the presentation to the court martial
of a secret document bearing the words
"Ce canaille de d." and seeing that
the communication of this document
is proved by the dispositions of NJ. CAST

Boisdeffre. and seeing that NJ. Casimir-
