Investigations Of geological study.
Professor Agassiz made the discov-
cry Of copper ore In the peninsula
of Michigan that led to the found
ing Of the great Calumet & Hecla
Mining company, which has since
poured millions Of dollars into the
Golfers Of leading families Of Bcs-
ton. While travelling through the
west on lecture tour In the SOS,
Professor Agassiz heard Of n great
outcropping of copper ore on the
shores Of Lake Michigan. He plung-
ed into the wilds and made his way
alone to the locality and found the
wonderful outcropping point Of cop
per. Returning to Boston he sent
his son to make further investiga-
tions, the result OF which was the
formation of the Calumet & Hecla
mining company, Of which the son,
Professor Alexander Agassiz, is still
president.

five of which were on the Fort
Worth District, Rev. r. l.. Sell e

those years..he has never spared
himself nor stopped to measure
what the wond conservation"
