'l'lll SUPPLY OF ANTHRACITE.
The constant extension of the anthracite
coal trade is causing some inquiry as to the
possible exhaustion of this most important
fuel. The output for the year 1882 was up-
wards of thirtyuono million tons. while that
for 1883 will be at least three million tons
greater. The increase is chiefly in the West.
where even in the bituminous coal districts
the anthracite is steadily growing in favor
for household use. because of its greater
clcnnlincss and its more gradual and uni-
form combustion. The conisumption of on-
tln-acitc in the West is certain to increase at
a rapid rate as the facilities for cheap trans-
portation become greater.
In view of this steadily and rapidly in-
creasing consumption and the fact that all
the available anthracite coal known in this
country is confined to a few counties in
Pennsylvania. the inquiry as to the }'per.
mancnce of the supply is not an unnatural
one. Mr. .\sbburncr. who is in charge of
tin~ State (‘rwlogical Survey in the anthra-
cite fil‘ltl. made some statements in a recent
lecture on the subject which. being prc~
sumably hosed upon definite knowledge.
throw some light upon this important sub-
ject. . He places the total anthracite pro-
duct during the sixty years since mining
begun at it little upward of 5w.000.000
tons. Assuming that for every ton of mark-
etablc coal produced there urv two ytons
wast-ed. this would show the exhaustion of
Snares which originally contained 1.500,.
”0,000 tons. He estimates the total body
of anthracite in the State at 271.000.000.000
tons. which. if correct. would show that
only about six per cent. of the coal had as
yet been disturbed at all.
If these estimates are even approximately
reliable it is not worth while for any of the
present gent-ration to stint their fuel in
order that their children may have cool to
keep wan-m, as the supply is good for many
generations. And there will, without doubt.
be methods discovered of utilizing the
waste, so that. the coal yet to be mined will
be much more largely available for com
sumption. It ought not to be necessary to
waste two tons of valuable coal in order to
prepare one ton for use. and it is almost
certain that this extnivagance' will gradual.
ty grow less and less.
AI OLD PRISON.
As you step into Chatham street from the
Brooklyn bridge. before you stands an anti-
quated grayish building. whose history is
more interesting than many who pass it
daily suppose it to be. It has been known
for a number of years as the Register‘s
once (all real estate deeds and mortgages
are recorded in it), and it is sometimes
pointed out as the headquarters of an
oflcial whose place is‘, worth $100000 a
year. I think the $100,000 is somewhat
mythical. but never mind about that. Un~
le- my local knowledge is not at fault. the

amassing wealth before marrying. He he-

ministers, es a rule. have neither time nor
facilities to make the neceuary inquiries in
all cases. The Rev. Dr. W. I. Teylorfavors
slaw W the marriage ‘of a man
under twenty-one and of a woman under
eighteen years of age. He refuses to marry
people under these uses. The Itev. Dr. R.
8. Stone holds similar views. The Rev.
Dr. Thoma Armituge. who ten years ago
secured the passage of a State law empow-
oriug ministers to administer oaths to per-
sons suspected of not telling the truth
about their fitness or unfltnces for the man-
riagc contract. thinks that the lowest limit
of age should be eighteen years for the
groom and sixteen/fonthe bride. He. too.
regards a IIOt‘llSG bureau as a newssity.
Bishop H. C. Potter. while not prepared to
say what the age should be. is convinced
that the common law makes the limit tot

W. 1’. Morgan has not in twenty wars been
asked to marry anybody under a§e except

might unite persons as young as fourteei

him to marry children under that age. The
Rev Dr. R. R. Booth refuses all applicants

Rev H. W. Beecher does not believe that

as to want to marry at fourteen he would
any let him go. The Rev. ’1‘. DoVVitt Tal-

GASTON OIL FOR SHOE LEATHER-
Thero is one simple article which will
render any decently made boot thoroughly
impervious. It is nothing more nor le-
than cold—drawn castor oil. " pure and
simple." It is best applied before a moder-
atcdre. The bootstobedroeeed should be
quite clean and dry. and special care should
be given to the welt and the tongues and
their stitching to the upper leathers. I
generally begin by pouring the oil from the
bottle all round the welt. so that the angle
between the sole and upper leather is quite
filled with oil. and then proceed all over the
boot. including the edges of the soles. rub.
hing it in with the band. When one is
done. have a turn at the other. and so rd.

tongues. being thinner leather. should be
