nuity of which the average visitor is

oil distinct falls" about fve-sixths
of all the meteorites known to science.
To see these elsewhere would require
n visit to the great museums of the
world and many cabinets of private
collectors. Bacubirito, however is
possessed of qualities which render
1t Of greater scientific value than any
Of Professor Wards other meteorites.
The inner structure shows the octahe-
dral system Of crystallization in a very
marked degree. No other meteoric iron
is known which shows this so well.
Fractured surfaces show crystaliza-
tion plates with faces from three to
nineteen millimeters in greatest diane
ter. Many of these faces are covered
with fine films of taenite, which in
most cases are of the characteristic
bronze yellow color. Acid brings out
the Widmanstattian figures in a most
beautiful manner From the coarse
crystals on a fractured or weathered
face of this iron we might anticipate
that etching would reveal a large wide
pattern in its markings
As n fact, quite the reverse is true.
The figures, while very sharp, are
small in pattern, and are composed Of
narrow blades Of kamacite, but a frac-
ton Of a millimeter in thickness. At
intervals, these blades appear to be of
more than double that thickness, but
when examined with a glass it is seen
| that these apparently broader plates
are composed Of what might be termed
bundles. of narrow kamacite bands.
The rhombic figures on the etched face
will average from one and a half to
| five millimeters in diameter, two an
! giles of same being sixty degrees and
100 degrees, While the triangular mark
ings will generally range from eight
to fifteen millimeters with angles of
fifty-five degrees and seventy degrees.
Two or three troilites are shown, and
the iron is essentially tough.
After a long protracted effort, Pro.
fessor Ward succeeded in detaching
from the mass an already partly loos-
ened piece of about eleven pounds in
weight. This, polished and etched on
one side, showing the beautiful Wild
manstattian figures, has taken it's place
in the Ward-Coonley collection of me-
teorites. This collection is now on dis

found a meteorite of tremen-
dous size. 1t has a length of thirteen
feet and one inch; width, six feet and
two inches; thickness, five feet and
four inches, and weight fifty tons.
Professor Ward has named it Bacubir-
ito, after the mining town near which
it was unearthed, and which is stu
ated on the Rio Sinaloa Mexico. 1t
took twenty-eight able-bodied poems
one entire day to uncover its upper
surface, making an excavation thirty
feet on a side, with the great meteOrlte
lying within. At the end Of the second
day they were able to bring the huge
mass to a semi-vertical position, the
Mexicans standing aghast at the reye-
lati0n of their work.
The Bacubirito was found on a farm
called Ranchito, which fills the narrow
mountain valley, running nearly north
and south, and 2O0O feet above the
level of the sea. 1t lay in cornfeld,
close by the eastern edge of the valley,

Liberals perceive in the new movement against
Cobdenisrn and all its works the promise of the
potency Of a national uprising which will restore
their party TO power. Mr.. Chamberlain has
given the country a new question in which the
electors are vitally interested. Already there is

greatness and moral influence. It IS defended
as q policy which cannot be reversed without
tremendous commercial and financial disturb

dom has been adjusted to if and developed under
