Economical work. 1t is expected that
the observatory, which, as o whole,
has cost several years labor and the
expenditure of about $500, 600, will be
soon formally delivered by the Lick
trustees into the hands OF the regents
OF the University of California. After
the formal transfer next month, Pro-
fessor Holden will assume immediate
charge and begin scientific work inn
mediately, assisted by Professors Kee-
Ter, Burnham, Schacleerle and Barnard.
Professor Schacleerle is still at the
Ann Arbor observatory, but is ex-
pected here in a few months.
Professor Holden says he desires to
make the observatory of the greatest
possible value, and will give frequent
reports OF the work in progress. He
will have one evening week for Wis
itors, and arrangements will then be
made to take them from San Jose to
the mountain. The professor intends,
as soon after assuming charge as pos
sible, to entertain, in succession, at his
mountain home, the Governor, State
officials, regents and such prominent
persons as may happen to visit the
State from time to time.
