The late Professor Chace one of the strop pest
men IN the faculty Of Brown University, with which
institution he was connected for more than forty
years. After making brilliant reputation in the
departments of mathematics and natural science,
he was transferred to the chair of moral and mental
philosophy. He made the change uDwilIiugly, to
relieve the college from dilemma; but III his ew
post he was able to do greater than in
the old. Having published nothing except review
articles his reputation outside the university
Gle aud the city Of Providence, was never cOmmen-
surate with his intellectual powers but those who
knew him. and the comparatively small nun Der of
readers familiar with his special work in certain
of the graver periodicals., held him In the very
highest esteem. The biographical sketch.

This is an official publication undertaken some

A BILL was introduced in the Chero-

make it penal offense to skin dead
cattle belonging to others. The pur-
pose sought in the passage of the law
was for the protection of stockmen.
There was a universal belief among
stockmen of the Indian country that
in no small number of cases the range
was burned by worthless parties for
the express purpose of starving to
death the cattle owned by their neigh
bors. Thus the ''cow-skinner," as he
is termed, profits by the cattleman' S
misfortune.
