CHEMISTS LAST LECTURE.
Ovation For Professor c. r. Chandler,
Who Taught 10000 Students.

Who Taught 10000 Students.
1t was in September, 1857, that G. F..
Chandler, fresh from Gottingen uni
versity. went up to Schenectady, n.
y, to give his first lecture on chemis-
try before handful Of students in the
old buildings Of Union college. The
other day in the big circular lecture
room of Havemeyer hall DIR. Chandler
talked chemistry for the last time as a
Columbia university professor, where
he has taught 10000 students.
There We're 800 students and profess
sors at his farewell lecture, but in all
that number none listened more in
tently than one old man who sat on
the lecture platform lingering a soft
felt hat. He was the only surviving
member Of that little group of Union
college students who listened to Chan
dler fifty-three years ago. When DR..
Chandler stepped into the room he was
greeted with wild cheer, for the stu
dents had planned surprise for him.
"Sitting over there in the corner, gen.
tlemen," said he, lis Exhibit A." And
here he turned and smiled at North,
Union, SO The students had not no.
ticed the stranger up to that moment.
and all eyes turned his way.
Edward North" continued the vet
eran chemist. "who attended my first
class at Union college and who is now
:, rotiro1 civil auripnaro
That was all he said, but it was
enough to send the entire gathering to
its feet once more, cheering this time
for North.
Then the lecture began. At first the
audience called for a story, but DR..
Chandler only shook his head.
"I've got something to teach to you
yet" said he. And then he started to
tell them about arsenic and it's run
ming mate" anthony. But, of course
those who had called for a story We're
not disappointed
"A curious thing about anthony
gentlemen, is that it was the first
thing to be called alcohol" said he
picking up a large black lump of sui
phide of anthony. 1T seems big
jump from this, gentlemen, to glass
of whisky. but there may be closer
connection than you imagine. You
know, in olden times Turkish women
used to use sulphide of antimony to
blacken around their eyes-to make
their eyes look bigger-just like the
actresses of today use grease paint
In other words. antimony and whisky
have one thing in common-they are
both eye openers"
In conclusion Professor Chandler ad
vised the men when they got out oil
college not to wait for something big
to come along, but to take anything
that looked good and work themselves
up. The junior class then presented
to him a silver cup, and he drank
health to them in H.O.

ROOSEVELT'S FAMOUS AID.
Exploits Of Lord DundonaId, Who Led

Exploits Of Lord DundonaId, Who Led
Cavalry Which Relieved Ladysmith.
The Earl of Dundonald. one of the
aids-de-camps who were appointed by
King George V. to attend Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt during his stay in
London, is one of the best known Brit
ish cavalry leaders and holds the rank
of lieutenant general. 1t was he who
led the cavalry brigade in the Natal
campaign of the South African war
which finally broke through the Boer
lines before Ladysmith and relieved
that town. AS Il young major in the
Nile campaign he performed exception
ally daring services. After the dash
across the desert to Metemneh and the
battles Of Abu Klea and Goubat he
acted as guide to two conveys OF
wounded on their night marches back
from the front, and he volunteered
twice to ride with dispatches through
the dervish infested desert to announce
important events.
From 1902 to 1904 he was in COM
mand Of the Canadian militia, but he
made so vigorous a resistance to the
political management Of that force
that he was summarily dismissed by
the Ottawa authorities.

Too, In Fair Weather.
The class graduated from Columbia
college in 1885 will give Columbia uni
versity, in New York city, on June /,
commencement day, Il granite sundial
said to be the only one of it's kind in
the United States. The plans for the
dial and small working model have
been made by Harold Jacoby, profess
sor Of astronomy and member Of the
class. When completed the dial will
consist of granite sphere five feet in
diameter mounted on Il circular gran
tie plinth some ten feet in diameter.
On the surface of the plinth will be
marks by which will be designated the
actual time of day at every season Of
the year.
The dial. according to DR.. Jacoby,
will probably be the best timekeeper
in New York as long as the sun shines,
but it will be subject to the faiingS
of all other sundials when there is no
sun.

LONG HIKE FOR ENNIS.
Connecticut Mans Attempt to Lower
Weston's TranscontinentaI Record.

Connectlcut MANS Attempt TO Lower
Weston's TranscontinentaI Record.
John Ennis Of Stamford, Conn.,, sixty
eight years old, who recently started
on transcontinental walk from New
lower Edward Payson Weston's record
between these two cities, took a swim
in the Atlantic ocean at Coney Island
before starting and will take one in
the Pacific at the end of his trip.
Ennis will attempt to make the trip
over Weston's trail In 100 days. If he
succeeds he will establish a new rec
ord in walking westward across the
continent, because it took Weston 105
days to reach the Pacific ocean.
AS long distance walker Ennis
has already made name for himself.
having defeated Dan O'Leary and
Weston in January. 1908. by walking
40 miles in % hours 10 minutes.
Ennis was born in Ireland and came
to the United States when small boy.
He is known as a great walker and
rides only when obliged to. 1t is said
in Stamford that Ennis has never been
seen wearing an overcoat. and his
wiry figure is a familiar sight striding
briskly along on the coolest days.
But it is not as Il walker alone that
letes. He has won many prizes as a
skater and has saved thirteen lives by
his expert swimming.

THE HAGUE'S GREATEST CAS-
American Canadian Fishing Dispute to
Be Arbitrated by Peace Tribunal.

American Canadian Fishing Dispute to
Be Arbitrated by Peace Tribunal.
An array of counsel greater in num-
Der and more illustrious in reputation
than ever before assembled at The
Hague to engage in the trial of Il
special case has been retained to rep
resent America and Great Britain in
the determination of what is undOubt-
eddy the most important issue ever
presented to the great peace tribunal.
Technically this is the determination
of differences over the fishing rights
of Americans and Canadians in their
respective waters. The issue of great
est import is the determination of the
right of colony or province, such as
Canada or Newfoundland, by local leg
islation to deprive persons of rights
conferred by treaty between the prin-
cipals. The arbitration tribunal is to
meet at The Hague June to hear the
oral arguments.
The Newfoundland fisheries contro-
versy between the American and Brit
ish governments is of long standing,
and. prolonged negotiations having fail
ed to result in settlement, it was
agreed last spring to submit the dis
pute TO The Hague tribunal. Ambas-
sador Bryce and Elihu Root. then Sec
rotary Of state, brought about this dis
position of the matter.
The New England fisheries are re-
sponsible for the dispute. They pro-
tested that the treaty rights of Ameri-
waters had been questioned. their
work interfered with and an attempt
made to enforce against them local
laws and regulations inconsistent with
the privileges guaranteed them by in
ternational agreement.
The arbitration court will consist of
DR.. Heinrich Lammasch Of Austria,
umpire, who will act as president
Luis NJ. Drago. Argentine Republic
Jenkherr A. +. DeSavornin Lehman
of the Netherlands, Judge George Gray
Of Delaware and Sir Charles Fitzpat
rick. chief justice Of the supreme court
of Canada. The agent Of the United
States is Chandler Z. Anderson. The
United States counsel are Senator Eli
hu Root, George Turner and Samuel
]. Elder, and the associate counsel are
James Brown Scott, solicitor for the
department of state; Charles B. War
rem and Robert Lansing.

The Passing of King Edward VII.

Long time a prince. brief time king,
From first to last man,
He found this life goodly thing
In his allotted span.
God rest his soul.
BY standards of the world not great,
Yet through his tact and grace
He showed how we'll king can wait
And fill a second place.
God rest his soul.
Not fashioned for bold deeds of strife
And too humane for war,
He seemed in his full joy of life
A royal troubadour.
God rest his soul.
He lived. Mayhap his living proved
That kings are not divine.
He knew the joy Of being loved.
But erred not with design.
God rest his soul.
He died. So mightier kings have done.
His royal reign was brief,
But few the monarchs who have won
Such need Of honest grief.
God rest his soul.

Is 1t is known to miners. "shot 1irlng.

as 1t Is known to miners. shot firing.
The men who do this work are SINH
larly called ''shot firers." They enter
the mine after the miners have COM
pleted their days work and gone home.
Invariably the shot firer PUSHES his
work. firing shots rapidly creating
large quantities Of gases caused by
the ignition Of large charges of pow
der. Then comes an i'll placed shot
or badly judged shot. causing what
is known in mining parlance as u
windy shot," thus providing all the
elements for an explosion, which in
variably occurs, causing loss of life
and damage to property.
Recently there was patented an auto
matte electric "shot firer" by Charles
l. Dodson Of Kansas City. which. after
being put to the practical test Of
thirty Dr. rial in large mine near
Pttsburg. Kan, has been recon-
mended by the United States geolog'
zeal survey. The apparatus takes the
place Of the "shot firer' and renders
unnecessary his services in a coal
greatest dangers to life and property
in the mining industry.
The machine is Il complete electric
plant and has no outside assistance.
1t consists Of specially constructed
clock and self exciting direct current
dynamo. with specially constructed
mechanical parts. The machine Is
made to operate by inserting key
and pulling up rack bar. which on
being released by the clock at any
time desired dcsccnds and rotates the
armature of the dynamo by being con-
nected with gear wheels. 1t thus
generates current sufficient to explode
shots or blasts connected.
