tising in each case, as required by
law. It would seem that the value of
these leasehold privileges has been
very little appreciated by the general
public when, after public notice ex-
tending over several weeks, they
have been disposed of to the highest
bidders at such ridiculously low rate.
Most of these leases have seven years
yet to run, but one of the most valu-
able on:s expires next July. The
commissioners can, if they please, Of
fer the property for sale at public
auction or they can release in the
same way. If the commissioners
should see fit to sell the property now
there is little doubt that it could be
disposed of for at least as much as
the auditors estimated valuation OF
the entire water front addition. But
as the property is increasing in value
every year it is considered probable
that the board will re lease for the
period covered by other leases which
have the longest time to run.

here is again assured, Manager Dem
ing, Of the Pacific American Fisheries,
having consented to allow the cannery
buildings to be used for that purpose,
asithey were last year. The term is
to begin june Is and end Aug 5. The
steamer Zebeitka has again been
chartered for dredging. As already
announced in the ISLANDER the work
in zoology will be in charge of Prof.
Kincaid, Of the q University Of Washing
ton. Prot. Bruce Fink, OF Iowa College,
will have charge Of the botanical
work. Concerning the station and
the work contemplated, the latest
quarterly Bulletin Of the University
says:
''It Is = favorite location for marine
work, for the region is richer than the
Atlantic coast, both in plants and in anl-
mails. The view and surroundings aro
delightful: eastward across the channels
rise the rocky walls Of the Cascades, Mt.
Baker towering above the lesser peaks;
ana to the west, and surrounding the viii
Iage, are the dark, cool, fir woods, cover
ing hill and valley.

building and wharf, and this is the head
quarters Of tie station. It il within two
blocks Of the business portion Of the vii
lage, and yet seems quite retired. The
building is fitted up rs laboratory, with
Ia les, compound microscopes, laboratory
utensils and books. Fresh and salt water
are near at hand. There is small steam

ing, with view to securing the animals
and plants in the deeper waters, and de-
termining their distribution. The steam
or is provided with sufficient steel cable
to reach the bottom at 100 fathoms. There
is also q steam hoist, obviating the work
connected with hanc-dredge. Mud
dwellers, attached animals and delicate
red algae are brought to the surface with
a slow, heavy, shearing dredge; and with
the large surface-sweeping shrimp nets,
fishes. more active bottom animals, and
larger algea are secured. This affords an
excellent opportunity for collecting labo-
ratory and museum material. The sta
ton has also several small boats, which
may be used for shore work, for securing
surface forms.
ION account Of the dredging and tho
rich field, the station offers perhaps the
best opportunity on the coast for making
collections for schools aud colleges"

London, judy l0.-N0t In the history
Of English railways have greater pre-
cautions ever been observed to pro-
tect the royal train than those which
had been perfected when the King and
Queen. accompanied by Princess Vic
toria. left Kings Cross today on their
journey northward. The preparations
were undoubtedly prompted in meas
ure by the recent Salisbury disaster.
Every particle of the apparatus of
the train and the track had been sub
jected to the most careful inspection.
Stationmasters, operators and track
inspectors at every station along the
route, no matter how small, were inn
peratively required TO be on duty
half an hour before the royal train
was due, to examine personally as to
signals and switches, and 80 see that
all was in proper working order The
pilot engine ran a quarter OF an hour
ahead Of the royal train, and after
its passage all tracks were kept abso-
lutely clear The royal train was
drawn by two engines. with expert en-
sineers, and complete stan Of rail
way experts accompanied the train for
immediate action in case anything
should go wrong.
