and gladly to the Cousins Society as
the smaller contributors, and that they
took pleasure in making the Cousins
the stewards for these amounts
A number stated that these sums ap-
propriated for the various schools
must be met in some way. and if con-
tributions did not come through the
Cousins. some parties would be asked
TO contribute through other channels.
Ii was suggested that the pledge sys-

taken up during the ensuing year.

be made in the printing Of the annual

Board of Managers TO decide on.

1.-THE MINERAL INDUSTRY" !"
The Fifh Volume Issued by the Scientific Pub
 fishing Company.

This, the fifth volume of the series published annually by the Scientific Publishing Co.,, of New York, and edited by Richard P. Rotnwel. editor of the Engineering and Mining JournaI, has been circulated, and the addition-has been rapidly purchased by mining en- gineeTs, metallurgists, iron and coal men, and indeed, all who are directly, or indirectly, interested in keeping up with the mineral industry, it's statistics, technology and trade.
 The value of these volumes have been attested to not only by all of the leading men connected with the industry in the United States, but also by the govern ment of Great Britain, which has adopt ed the statistics as published in these volumes in preference to any other sta- tistics and information rslative to the mineral production of the United States
 The present volume contains nearly 1000 pages devoted to statistics of pro- duction, imports, exports, and consump- tion of the various minerals and metals in every country besdsS a large space to the description of the best existing practice in the chief departments or metallurgy and chemical technology.
 The!southern states have received mer- ited attention in chapters on the manu- facturse of basic iron in Alabama by pr. Wan. B. Phillips, of Birmingham, Baux- ite Southern Iron Oae and Coal. and the Southern Gold Minis, by William NJ. Brewer, both of whom have given the subjects on which they have writ ten their close attention for several years past.
 fnS d short review it is impossible to plesent the contents of this volume De- foteE the public in as full and compre- henAye manner as the book deserves.
The age-herald., 1897-09-19

But from a casual perusal it is readily seen that the special chapters on Mod ern Coke Ovens and their by-products, by George Lunge; Progress in the Elec- trolytic Refining of Copper, by Titus Ulke; the Present Development of the Barrel Chlorlnaticn Process, by John E. Rothwell Chlordizing. Roasting of Cal. careous Silver Ore containing Arsenic in large quantities, by Ottokar Hoffman; Recent Economies iE Iron and Steel allurgy of Tin, by H rny Louis, as we'll as several others of equal importance are sufficient in themselves to recom- mend the volume as a text book, and book of reference of SD :cial value, not only to scientists generally, professors in colleges, and students seeking a techni- cal education, but also to superintend- ents and forem n. in the various plants and works throughout the country.
 One chapter of especial interest to many of the residents of Alabama is that on Cement Manufacture in Great Britain, written by w. Harry Stranger, try is given. The reason of calling at and Bertran Blount, in which full and comprehensive description of this indus try is given. The reason of calling at tention especially to this chapter is be- cause in a paper read about one ysar since by Dr. Eugene A. Smith, state ge- ologist of Alabama, before the Alabama Industrial and Scientific society of Bir- mingham, heYsuggested the adaptability of the clays of tha tertiary formation in Southern Alabama for the manufac- ture of Portland cement, and presented at that meeting several analysis show ing the comparative contents of the raw materials used in England for ths manufacture of Portland cement, and the raw material he had observed in our own state.
 Several years since MT. sRothwell the editor of the Engin sering and Mining Journal conceived a plan of having com piled in as comprehensive form as pos sible the statistics of the mineral indus try throughout the United States, which he published as a pamphlet supplement to the Engineering and Mining Journal in the beginning of each year. He found this work was so greatly appreciated that in 1891 he determined, at ths com mencement of the next year to com mence the publication of the series of volumes of which the pressnt is the fifth. He appreciated the fact that sta tistics should be published as early as possible each year and his work since then in bringing out these volumes usu- ally several months before the govern ment reports are published, has been commented on in the most compliment ary language by nearly all the leading scientists and technical men of the country.
