The failure of these assaults con-
vinced Grant and Meade that Peters
burg could not be captured without un-
due loss of life, and therefore orders
were issued to the troops to settle down
on the ground they had gained and be-
gin intrenching. There was another
reason for this, and that was that the

We are reliably informed that
large deal is in progress on certain
Platoro mining properties, and
that the deal now hinges ON wheth-
er the proposed hydro-electric
power installation of the San Luis
Valley Power Co. will be made or
not, 80 that the purchasers can OBJ
tain cheap electrical power for
mining and milling operations.
And as the "Mammouth" mine
will be started just as soon as they
are assured that they can depend
upon electric power, it seems that
the future development of our
mining camps depends largely on
the development of hydro-electric
power, which will reduce power
costs to about one-third of what it
would be from using fuel.

tions in this country. Mr. Wyman, who
was very much of IA recluse, owned a
great deal of property, not only in
Boston, but in every State OF, the
Union. and in at least one or two for
eign countries. His niece is his sole sur
viving relative. The income from a
fixed sum Of money is left 10 her dur

with the bulk of the estate, it goes
10 the Graduate School of Princeton.
The university at present has in
come yielding funds amounting to
81, 10000, and this income, together
with the tuition and other charges,
amounted last year to- S56O,69O The
theological seminary, so far as finan-
cial matters are concerned, Is a sep
arate institution, and has an endow-
ment of S3,OOOOOO. The total endow-
ment will, therefore, be nearly trebled
by the Wyman bequest.
There are still many American uni
versities which far surpass Princeton
in wealth, and efforts to bring the total
endowment to S2O,OOO,OOO would meet
with warm support. Columbia, with
its allied colleges, lays claim TO $780,
100000, Girard has 2S,S00,0O0, Leland

Yale, Cornell, and Pennsylvania, al
though usually regarded as wealthy,
fall far behind, with Sl0,500,O00,

Princeton a new impetus and console

THE SMALLEST THING YET
SEEN BY EYE.

It was almost certain to be a pro
fessor of the University of Chicago
who finally succeeded in catching the
elusive ion and stopping him long enough
for bunch Of brother scientists TO see
him through a microscope. Such start
ling discoveries are always made out
there-which causes one to suspect
that Mr.. Rockefeller has either turned
his monopolistic tendencies to the
accumulation of the visible supply of
high-brOws at the Windy City school
or has hired the best press agent that
has yet been developed by this age in
which publicity seems to be the car
dinal necessity of success.
Prof. M'lliken has not only caught
an ion, but he has held him suspended
in space for a period of an hour or
more. impaled upon an electric spark.
An ion. understand, is no small pump
kin in elect science, or, rather, it is
the smallest pumpkin known. It's
smaller than a molecuIe, smaller than
a particle. smaller than the ham in a
lunch-counter sandwich, smaller ths n
the public policy of the Washington
Gas Light Company-it's only one
one thousandth as big as an atom, in
spite of the long words necessary to
describe it.
All hail Prof. Bnllikeni True, he's
not the original discoverer. Two OF
three others before him have known
there were such things as ions, and
have even seen them chase each other
through air-tubes, from one electric field
to another, but to Prof. AIilliken must
be given credit for stopping the tiny
substance en- transit, holding it aloft
and applying the glass to see what sort
of stuff it's made of. He hasn't vet re
ported definitely on that, and until he
does an anxious public Will hold itself
in impatient restraint, yearning fol
the day when il will know Just why
and wherefore the little ion is.
