THE AUDITOR,S OFFICE.

Several Changes Made in Subordinate
Positions Yesterday.
{. County Auditor McCardy on yesterday
appointed Mr.. G. E, Dean to the position
of deputy auditor, to fill the vacancy caus-
ed by the death of the late Deputy Hult.
Mr.. Dean has been clerk in the Office for
two years and he brings to the position
familiar knowledge of all the business
and details. He is young man about
twenty three years of age and was educat-
ed at the soldiers orphan school at Vino
ma. The appointment is considered a
good one. The position formerly occu-
pied by Mr.. Dean has been filled by Mr..
M. j. Donnelly, brother of Mr.. j. G.
Donnelly, secretary of che board of educa-
tion, and he is well qualified to discharge
the duties of the Office. Mr.. Donnelly Is
twenty-four years of age and he was edu-
Gated at Milwaukee, graduating from the
high school of that city in
1877. He then contested for
admittance to the naval academy, there
being thirty-seven applicants examined for
the honor which was conferred upon him.
Entering the academy at Annapolis, he
passed four years in study. after which he
was appointed to the service. After being
two years at sea he resigned and has but
recently came to st. Paul, where he is
received as a valuable acquisition.
Mr.. G. ]. Smith. another young man of
good promise, has been appointed to a

authoress with the plant was in Missouri.
Her attention being called to it by citizens
"as the plant that lowered only once in
seven years." she tested the fact by
planting some seeds, the plants from
which, now seven years from planting, are
Towering for the first time.
Prof. Mason was not inclined to accept
the theory.
Prof. E. S. Morse read a paper on the
plans OF arranging nurseries. Our own
country, he said, was far ahead of the Old
World IN this matter. AS rule, in the old
country the show cases are very plain, but
still there were some ideas in use that could
be advantegeously followed, illustrations of
which he gave in blackboard drawings.

THE RAILROAD LIABLE

For Goods Destroyed or Damaged by Rea-
son of the CareIessness of Employees.
A decision was rendered by Judge Brill
yesterday in the case of Simon Heller, etc.
al, against the st. Paul, Minneapolis &
Manitoba Railroad company. The decis-
ion is in favor of the plaintiff, and in re-
viewing the case the court sets
forth that on August "a, 1882,
one Turner, an agent in the employ of
plaintiff, was engaged in selling goods on
the line of defendants railroad; that on
the day named he travelled from Dassel to
Waverly, paying the sum of ninety cents
for the transportation of three sample
trunks; that the trunks were left by de-
fendant on the platform at Waverly over
night; that they were bottom side up, and
that during the night heavy rain came
up, spelling the goods; that as a result
plaintiff was damaged to the extent of
S27O, besides the loss of his time. AS a
conclusion the court finds that after the
lapse of reasonable time the defendant
became warehouseman in respect to said
goods; that they were bound to exercise
ordinary prudence, and that they are liable
for the damages suffered by plaintiff.
Judgment is ordered in favor of plaintiff
for 1852 .38, with interest.

AFTERNOON SESSION.

The first paper at the afternoon session
was by Prof. S. II. Gale on the Pharynzed
respiration of the soft shelled turtle
(Aspidonectea). The essayist said that
during the last twenty-five years respira-
tion in the chetonia has been investigated
with considerable thoroughness, both in
this country and in Europe, and at present
the chetonia form of respiration is consid-
cred to be comparable with that of the
mammal, rather than with that of the
frog, as formerly supposed. While, how
ever, the mechanism of respiration has
been quite fully investigated, there has
been, so far as I am aware, but
one who has considered the organs of res
plration in the different groups of
turtles. In conclusion the speaker said:
1t is hoped that during the coming year
Investigations may be completed which
shall determine the exact amount in this
pharyugeal respiration, and the structure
OF this unusual respiratory organ in the
soft shell turtle.
Prof. E. D. Cope, then delivered an in
teresting lecture with black board iIlustra-
tlons on "The structure of the skull in
Dloclonius Mirabilis." The Dioclonius
Mlrabllls is Dinosaurian of the Laramie
formation of thirty eight feet in length.
Ihe skull which is about four feet in
length is in profile good deal like that of
a goose, but seen from above is something
like that of spoonbill. Skulls of this
type of reptiles are rarely found, and this
one throws much light On the question of
the classification of the order. The ar
rangement of the teeth is very peculiar,
and the number is very great, amounting
to nearly 1000 in number. The general
form of the animal Is that of a gigantic
kangaroo. The food evidently consisted
of very soft aquatic vegetation.
Prof. Z. W. Claypole followed with some
notes on the present condition of the box
huckleberry in Perry county. Pa. The
plant was first discovered by Prof. Mich
aud, but it then disappeared and continued
lost plant until in 1916, plant was dis
covered in Perry county, Pa, which after
thorough investigation was decided to be
Michaud's lost plant, known as box buckle
berry. 1t grows on a hillside in the locali-
ty named, covering space of some ten
acres, to which habitat it is absolutely
confined. 1t grows low and flowers very
profusely, but fruits lightly. 1t is found
in but one other locality, in New Castle,
Del. That in Perry county is found on
high sterile ground. while in Delaware it is
on flat ground, almost in the tidal water,
but still the plant is absolutely the same,
governed by the same laws, not enlarging
their areas, but in fact slowly dying out, so
that at no distant day the plant will un-
doubtedlY become extinct.

The morning session of section B was
opened by W. A. Rogers in reading a six
teen minute paper upon Definite Deter
mination OF the Relation-Imperial yard,

The essay was illustrated with blackboard
characters which can not be reproduced in
this report, and hence no adequate report
can be made.
Il. A. Rowland, vice president of the Sec
tion, at the conclusion of Prof. Rogers
paper, took the floor to discuss its merits.
Although physics is supposed to be an
exact science. Prof. Rogers shows that the
metre measurement can not be exact under
all temperatures, and the great problem
consequently is, how shall the standard
temperature be determined.
SUMS RAYS.
The next paper was that of Prof E. s.
Morse upon the utilization of the suns
rays for warming and ventilating
apartments. This paper, as that
OF Prof. Rogers, was composed
largely of blackboard illustrations
precluding full report. The essayist had
experimental with refect1ng heaters at
his residence. He used states in secure
frames. In the winter he used sheet iron
ref1ectors in zig gag shape beneath his
glass windows. By this means he secured
an increase of 26 $40 degrees f. The
observations above made when the tenn
perature was above freezing point he had
raised the temperature Sc degrees above
the outside temperature, which he con-
sidered very gratifying. In the house tax
ing the air from the floor the thermometer
standing 62 degrees and the above cur
rents 81 degrees, the latter next to the re-
Electors. Other experipents were made
with comparatively the same results. The
directors of the Boston athenaeum have
given him permission to use his heater on
that building. He was so highly elated
that he made an accidental blunder, but
ne was, nevertheless, gratifed with
the result. He used a thirty

He believed there was much practical use
for this heater for heating large buildings

that it would have required at least 100

The programme called for sixteen pa
pers in this section for the morning and
afternoon session, of which thirteen were
read. Vice President w. j. Beal, of Ian
sing, Mich, presided.
The proceedings were opened by Prof.
d. s. Killicott, with paper on "Psephe-
mis- Lecontei, or the external anatomy of
the larva."
The next paper, "Parallelism of Struc-
ture of Maize and Sorghum Kernels" was
read by Prof. E. L. Sturtevant. The paper
was introduced to prove that contrary to
the accepted theory that there was but one
species of corn, while in fact there were
three, essentially different in structure.
"The Relation of Root and Leaf Areas,'
a paper by D. P. Penhallow, was read by
the secretary in the absence of the author.
The next paper was on the "Infuence
of Position on Seed" The argument of
the paper, based on experiments, was that
seed from the tip ends of ears of corn was
more prolific than that of other portions.
The same gentleman also submitted a
paper on agricultural Botany" which
had for its theory natural and conscious
selections. In answer to question Prof.
Sturtevant said that in artificial growth of
plants and vegetables there were no known
rules of botany that could be used in
arriving at knowledge of its species.

Vice President VIM. A. Rogers occupied
the chair. The first paper was by Prof
w. Holden, upon
THE TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE
of 1888. Congress had made an appro-
priation of $4,000; boat was
placed at our disposal, which con-
veyed US to Caroline Island,
from which point the observations were
made. The party consisted of ten, and
afterwards were Joined by two English
scientists from South Kensington museum.
The observatory was on the larger por-
tion of the island, which is on the southern
point. Great difficulty was experienced in
landing, owing to the breakers. Finally
the whale boat was taken ashore through a
narrow winding canal upon the waves.
The island was formerly devoted to guano,
but is now devoted to growing cocoanuts,
for the English marts.
Four separate observatories were To-
Gated. Two days after landing we saw
the lights of French frigate which
brought a party of French scientists, who
had also come to make observations of the
eclipse. Natives and all included. there
were ffty-one souls on the island-more
than ever before and probably ever will be
again. Our observations were completed
April &c, and on May the eclipse would
occur. A rehearsal was taken daily.
On the morning of the 9th
three showers fell, and then the
sky would quickly clear away. We made
four excellent observations and left the
island next day with mingled pleasure and
regret. We returned home via San Fran
cisco. 1t had been a beautiful surprise to
US. The essayist gave a full description of.
Caroline island. 1t is four miles out of
latitude and nine miles out of longitude,
and consequently very dangerous to
approach owing to prevalent winds and
storms. The highest point of the island
is not over fifteen feet above the sea level
and has been washed or submerged by
waves during heavy wind storms. The
professor dwelt at length upon the island,
the voyage, giving the daily log in detail
but failed to touch specifically the subject
proper, i. e., the total solar eclipse, until
the close of the paper. His meteorological
report of the island showed strangely
even temperature. The wind was very
steady and constant. The highest
velocity registered was sixteen miles, and
that during squall. He had photographs
