canals of Mars, and his lecture consisted
of narration or review of his study
Prof. Lowell holds. with many others,
the Jansen medal of the French Astro-
nomcal Society for his wonderful re-
searches in connection with Mars.
He made the statement last night IN

evolution which resulted in this condition
in that world will eventually bring about
the same condition on this Planet. he

tween r and F streets last night shortly

portion of the sum will be located.
The stock to the value of $3.50 900,
which is registered and only transfera
bic by the owner or legal representative
with power of attorney. viii be recov-
cred. he says. The failure to find the
negotiable securities in the safe deposit
box of the Atlantic Safe Deposit Com
pany was a disappointment MIR. Doug
las said he doubts If any of the stock be-
longing to the estate has been recovered
in California. If any stock has been
found there. he thinks it is lot of mining
stocks which are practically worthless.
Mr.. r. G. Donaldson. one of the at
tornevs for heirs of the estate who went
to New York to be present at the opening
of the safe-depost box thought to have
contained the missing certificates, is still
in that city looking after the interests of
