student may have been learning with
some degree of procrastnation will be
invested with great Importance from
The moment that public performance
of it is requested. The teachers de-
mlnds for absolute correctness and
tasteful musical rendering now fall on
willing ears. The difficult passages are
,hee"fully repeated ad infinitum. The
pedal Is practiced with minute care,
and the several preparatory rehearsals
IN which careful attention is given to
details are not considered irksome, but

had opportunities of which few can
boast. The Conservatory is supplied
with an excellent practice organ having
two keyboards, "a pedal-board with the

electricity. Advanced students may
have their lessons ON the large three

was made Tor the purpose of purchasing dogs, as the Iwlliks had lost most of theirs by distemper. This journey was the cause of separating Dr. Hall and Albert and his followers. The journey was through country destitute of game, and the travellers were forced to eat deg flesh. Dr. Hall objected to the killing of favorite dog, but Albert killed and ate 1t, regardless of the doc tors strenuous pleadin. for bis favor ite. Arriving at Igloolik they found food and dogs in abundance.
 The purchases made the return trip was begun. Dr. Hall was awakened one morning and told he must promise not to tell whaler captains and other white men at Repulse bay. what had occurred on the trip. This promise was demanded by Chief Albert and his followers at the point of an uplfted knife. This episode ended all friend ship and Albert and his kinsmen ser arated from Dr. Halls party. and we got no more assistance from them. To feed such a large number of men. women and children as were there caused Dr.. Hall good deal of anxiety, and besides we had 50 dogs or more to provide for.
 In the fall of 1868 the British bark Ocean Imp was the last to leave Repulse hay. and Dr. Hall exchanged pelts for barrel of biscuit and a hundred pounds of four, some coffee and tea. Tn was all the food supply secured for q year. However we had cache on the bay consisting of biscuit pemmican, coffee, tea and sugar. but the reader must understand that these supplies were for use only when actual starvation compelled us to use them; they were to tide us over from one 'killing' to an- other, or during . shortage of flesh food, which sometimes occurred.
 Up to this time, during the years Dr. Hall had been in he country. he had only killed two deer, and other mem bers of the party were just as unsuc- cessful. Hunting is not in line with a sailors duty.
 All the members of this research party were not self-sustaining. All the guides had wives and children to fecd and care for, so of the eight men in the party, but three were self-supporting: all the others were drones.
 The migrating season of the reindeer is the E>kimo's harvest, beginning about the middle of August and ending about the middle of November. Tho prevailing winds govern the course of these animals and very often the hunt. CTS are disappointed in trying to inter- cept them, the immense herds circling the territory of tribe and finding other passes through the mountains. This was sometimes the case with the Iwilliks, causing famine and death.'

 It is said that more money has been spent in guessing of this kind than is ever returned by actual finds. No wonder that the divlning:rod charlatan once llourished in ore-mining regions, and that even to this day many super stitious miner clings to the divining-rod tallacy.
 A method of detecting minerals has been discovered and invented by Fred Harvey Brown, of GarvanZa, Cal. which, based upon sound electrical laws, seems to place in the hands of the gold prOspecLor q ready means of locating ores with rapidity. Mr. Anthony Blum. of B Court street, Boston, Mass, who is interested in the patent, has tested the apparatus used, in Ontario and. It is claimed, with success. The Brown method consists in utilizing the various resistances offered by metals in the transmission of electrical currents.
 Gold silver and copper are the three best conductors of electricity which are known to us. It follows that earth in watch these metals are contained is a better conductor than earth without them. In order. therefore, to detec, their presence, it is necessary to mea>- ure the resistance of the earth as a coL-
