able to Scientific Re-
search.

Years terminating In '9' appear to be IA
vorable to scientific research. This year,
which has witnessed the conquest OF the
sky and the discovery of the North pole,
has been no exception to the rule. Scores
OF distinguished scientists were born or ao-
complished their grandest achievements in
such years, most notable among whom was
Charles Darwin, the naturalist who Gre
ated a new heaven and a new earth was
born in 1909, and in 1859 he attained his
great celebrity through the publication Of
his origin Of Species"
A similar coincidence may be noted in
the life Of that great scientist, Alexander
Won Humboldt, famous throughout the
world for his geological, physical and geo
graphical Investigations. He was born In
Berlin l4O years ago, 1909.
The career which made him the preatest
naturalist Of his time, and one Of the great
est Of all time. was commenced at Goettip-
gen in 1883. He made visits of scientific ex-
ploration to the Hartz and the banks OF
the Rhine, and his Investigations resulted
In his first book, Later he entered the Min
ing Academy at FreIdburg, where he had
the benfit Of the private Instructions OF
Werner. He was afterward appointed to
an office in the mining department. in the
meantime publishing several scientific trea-
tises dealing with his discoveries. He also
carried on physiological researches, which
he laborated in a work on The Irritability
or the Muscular and Nervous Fibers."
In 1893 he began a series of explorations
which extended all over the world, partic-
ularly in America. The record OF his trav-
els was published in his great and monu-
mental work, consisting OF nearly three
score volumes. In which he set forth with
minute detail his discoveries as a natural
list.
After a residence in Paris, in 1929 he
became a traveller. the Emperor Nicholas
placing him at the head OF a weIl-appointed
expedition to the north OF Asia: This ex-
resulted In many important dis
coyeries, notably OF an increased knowledge
OF the earth's magnetism.
He spent the latter years OF his life in
Russia, and ided May 6. 1859. again con-

Well known to European tourists, but
passed by most globe trotters-who in
their hurried journey across seas and
continents have no time to bestow on
anything outside 10 the beaten tracks
are the' salt mines Of Wieliczka, Ga
licia, whose origin is lost in the darkness
Of the times, while their history is trac-
ed to almost 1000 A. d. After being
temporarily abandoned as a consequence
Of Tartar incursions and the resulting
depopulation and Impeachment Of the
country, they were restored during the
reign Of Boleslas BY ilnmigrating Hun
garIan miners. The Wieliczka mines, the
history Of which is closely bound up with
that Of Poland, during the invasion Of
the federated troops, were the scene of
many combats until l7T2. when after
the annexation Of the country by the
Austrians, they were turned over to the
new government IN whose control they
have remained to the present day.
Apart from their interest to engineers,
those mines, however, contain number
OF attractions that appeal to the mind
OF ordinary tourists as keenly as to that
Of the expert In fact, they are in them
selves some kind Of underground world
