Library Additions.
The Volta Bureau Library here has re-
Gently been enriched by the addition of the
scientific collection of the late Prof Joseph
Henry of the Smithsonian Institution num-
bering 1900 volumes. The books are the
direct gift of Prof. Bell. The founder of
the bureau, Prof. Alexander Graham Bell,
is now in Nova Scotia pursuing his scen-
tific studies and experiments. He will
probably stay there until September /. In
the meantime, though the other scientific
attaches of the Volta Society are sending
forth publications beneficial to the deaf
and dumb to all parts of the world.
