that all government property passes to the conoaeror when a change of ter ritory occurs, while private property undergoes no change.

A very valuable document has been
issued by the bureau of mines, Philadol

cite and bituminous coal in Pennsylva
nia last year. It appears that there was
a decreaf-e of over 1,000,000 tons of a.i thracite in 1S97 as compared with 1896,
while the production of bituminon
within the same period increased nearly
4,500,000 tons. Tbe number of persons
employed in mining anthn ejre was lar
ger than that of Ihose employ ed in min

than of bituminous. Again, the number
of accidents, fatal or otherwise, was very much larger in mining anthracite

COALING WARSHIPS.
Kuormoot Ex pen nt lilcnlty In Frforiui.rf the Task. Apparently im tiu ds of coaling warships have improved but lirtle and are almost as crndo a. they were years ngo. There perhaps m-h.s but little need in improving this system when tbe coaling is done at the chip's dock, but at sea the difficulty of accomplishing the feat is increased a hundredfold. In tbe for
mer case two or more emd barges are brought alongside of the boat at the wharf and manilla fenders arc eu?iend-
ed over the sides of tbe vessel to keep
tbe two from injuring each other bv scraping and bnmpinx into each other. F.ven under these most favorable condi
tions it takes hours or even days to co;l
a hi? thin. The le.-t time the St. Paul
could make before she was purchased hf tV.B Bnipninifnt was 40 hours for
taking on 3,000 tons of coal.
At sea when a ship needs coal it gen
erally needs it vry badly, and the coal
must be transferred as won as a collier can be brought to the boat, no mutter
cchnt tbf weather may be, whether the
sea be c alm or the waves running tnonn-
tAin hitzh. The collier must be fastenea
of i,f,th .nds to the warship by cables.

Water Drinking.
Exception is taken by The Journal ol Hygiene to Professor Allen's rule that a person shoild drink from one-third to
two-fifths as many ouuees as be weighs In pounds a man weighing 168 pounds requiring, therefore, 1 1 to 4 pints daily. The comment on this by Tbe Journal is that the amount of water required depends rather on the season of the year, the amount of work doae and the kind of food eaten. In hot weather, that is, more is demanded than in cold, lecan.se of tbe greater Ioe through the kin, though this is in part made up by tbn lessor atuotAit passed away throogh tbe kidneys.

Hoolcy' Financial Fall. The fall of the great speculator, Er

and this without reckoning share hold
ings, some of which went to a high premium. Eight of Hooley's promo
tions have undergone a depreciation of
more than $ 18,000,000. From the Dnn-

of $10,000,000. The Iailure or Mr
