The remarkable aerolite which fell at Osawatomie, Kan, on the af- ternoon of April 8, striking the monument to John Brown, was evi- dently one of that meteor swarm called the 'Perseids" because when they fall to earth they come from the direction of the constellation Perseus. At the time this fell. that constellation was nearly in the zenith. This meteorite weighed a little over fourteen pounds, and con- taired iron and other minerals usu- ally found in meteors. About one- fourth of the mass is an unknown metal, with a specific gravity four times that of gold. When a trag- ment was volatilized in the electric arc, it gave the same spectrum lines which are found in the solar spec- trum, and have been attributed to a conjectural element, helium. If this unknown metal proves to be helium, it is the only known speci- men on earth, and the Osawatomie aerolite will be the most valuable ever known.-Toledo Blade.

l think this country may well beast of it's colleges. Take, for in- stance, Columbia College, Cornell University, Johns Hopkins Univer- sity or any of the institutions where nowadays electrical engineers are trained, The professors in these institutions are largely young men not only thorougly up in the most advanced ideas, but also more or less practical. In these colleges they so train young man in two or three years as to enable him, with a little experience, to attack most of the engineering problems that comes up in ordinary practice. I consider electrical engineering a very good profession for young man, but is is a profession which requires considerable exercise of in- tellect. On account of the fascina- ton connected with the study of electricity the profession draws to it's ranks an intelligent class of young men.-Nikola Tesla, in Syn dicate Article.

The stock of legal tenders or greenbacks in the Treasury amounts to $25,000,OOO. The exchange oi these for gold presents the easy and natural method of maintaining and increasing the Governments gold holdings. Many bands, hold ing gold, have already expressed their willingness to make the ex- change or have already effected it.. It is the obvious method of coop erating with the National Adminis- tration in it's avowed determination to maintain the party of gold and silver.
