British academy had printed few cop

ton to some foreigners who, from their
prominence i'm the scientific. world, were
best entitled To be honored with the
gift. Professor Airy, the astronomer
royal, was requested 10 make a selec-
ton of the names. A few days after
he had sent In his list he was informed
by the secretary of the admiralty that
my lords were struck by the number
OF unknown names included and that
they wished to-make an inquiry on the
subject. Airy asked the secretary for
some specifications as TO the names re-
ferred TO.

retary, here Is the name of Professor

Claims one perpetual song,

And hopes refreshing stream
Flows constantly. with loves sail

that the Kentucky Nolan left Seattle for

resided. His family is well known and
highly respected in the town. Nolan came
TO Seattle during the Nome rush. lie

east corner of First avenue and cherry
street. His most intimate friends in this
city were Mr.. and Mrs. John O'Day, Of
1923 Third avenue. Mr.. O'Day is now in
Nome, having been passenger on the
steamer Alpha. Before leaving on the SAL
Bias Nolan requested Mrs. O'Day TO write
his family at CovinEton in case mlsfor-
tune should overtake him In the north.
Upon his arrival at Dutch harbor Nolan
wrote Mrs. O'Day saying he had had n
pleasant voyage. Since then she has
heard nothing from him.
Recently Mrs ODay had a letter writ
ten by her husband from Nome. Juno 70

another letter from her husband on the
