OLD RELIABLE GULF STREAM.
Government Has Found BY Investlaa-
ton That the Mysterious Current
lsn't Changing Zee Course.

Much has been said in recent
years in regard to the changing route
Of the gulf stream. Indeed, the char
acter Of this steady, consistent and
answering body was getting 90 ma
ligned that the government looked
into the matter, with the result that
this mysterious current Of the ocean
was entirely indicated. Experts
declare that there is no change In
the course, nor has there been for
many years.
No other physical feature Of the
ocean is subject to more persistent
misinterpretation that is the gulf
stream. All vagaries Of climate are
Laid to its charge. 1t is a pet theory
Of many that the temperature Of Eu-
rope is greatly affected by it, but
this idea is held by high authorities
to be erroneous. It is not as extern
sive as is commonly thought. Prac-
tically starting at the Florida straits,
where its volume is made up by the
union Of currents, it ceases to be q
true current by the time it reaches
the southern limit Of the grand
banks, where it becomes surfacs
drift, governed by the winds The
government experts aver that there
has been absolutely no material
change in the gulf streams course in
modern times.

PREVALENCE OF scANDIuM.

Sir w. Crookes states that scam
dunn has been found to the extent
of more than one per cent. in the
mineral wilkite from Finland, and
in small amounts for many other
minerals. BY systematic series Of
fractionations it is possible to sep
arate scandium from most associated
elements; ytterbium is the most diff
fcult to separate because Its nitrate
is decomposed almost as readily as
scandium nitrate. In view of the
atomic weight relationships and of
the frequency with which these ele-
mentS occur together in nature it is
suggested that yttrium and scandium
are degradation products Of ytter-
blum. Scandium can be separated
from yttrium and ytterbium by pre-
cipitation as acknowledgements
