Typical Fossils.
From Nature

In accordance with a resolution passed
at the International Geological Congress az
Paris in 1900 to establish a archaeological
publication to bring together illustratiou1
and descriptions Of type fossils. an inter.
national committee was appointed to pre-.
pare a program Of the publication which
is to be known as "Palaeontologia Univers
Sails" The commission will publish each
type fossil on separate plate. It has been
arranged to reproduce the original figure
of the type fossil. to give a phototypo-
graphic figure of the type itself. the
original description without alterations
or authorizations and additional observa-
lions by the authors. The two specimen
plates which have reached US are excellent,
and the series, when complete. should be
of great service in making known rare and
frequently unknown descriptions and fig
ures of type fossils. The assistance of
numerous psychologists has been secured,
and they will prepare the plates of the type
fossils of the greatest interest In the col
lections in their care. DR.. Won Zittel Is
president of the committee, and II. d. p.
Ehlert Is the secretary.

Napoleon and Lowe

From the London Sphere.
The one absolute fact to any student Of
history of real insight Is that the govern
ment selected Sir Hudson Lowe for his pos
session of certain qualities that were bound
to make him a perpetual annoyance to his
prisoner and that their selection was am
ply justified. If Capt. Maitland, for exam
pie, had been governor of st. Helena he
would have lifted the reproach from Eng
land that 1t treated its captive with an
utter lack of magnanimity. There was no
subtlety in the character of Sir Hudson
Lowe. He was at the best very small
man, not worthy of all the controversy
that has been expended on him, and his
place to the broad-minded historian must
always be among the minor figures Of his
tory whose names are associated with a
lack Of all ideals of chiyalry.
