With an endowment of So, COO, CO., yield
ing an annual income Of s1,1OOOcO. the
Carnegie Institution of Washington Is to-
day the richest institution of research in
the world It now has passed the first
decade of it's existence, and its contri-
buttons to knowledge have been such as
to lead to the hope that many of the
unsolved problems of science ultimately
will yield up their mysteries before the
onslaughts of the patient probers of the
unknown who work under its patronage
With its great astronomical observa-
tory at Mount Wilson, Cal, it has
charted thousands of new worlds in the
skies. and the approaching completion Of
the most powerful telescope ever built
promises to bring the stars closer to
earth than they ever have been before
The non-magnetic yacht Carnegie is COM
pleting a great magnetic survey Of the
earth, and every one of the ten de-
partments now in operation some work is
being carried forward, which, however
impractical it may seem to the layman,
will serve as the foundation upon which
will be built up some useful invention or
discovery that VIII ultimately affect the
lives of many millions of the inhabitants
of the earth.
Andrew Carnegie gave his first $40, 900
900 for the founding of the institution in
| 1902. The results achieved in the sue
eeeding five years We're SO satisfactory to
!! his practical mind that he added another
S2.0C0,GO0 in 1897. Again in 1911 he sub
stantally signified his pleasure with the
| progress Of the work by adding another
S1OOOO.OO0. In making this latter gift he
| asked that one-half of the income from
| 1t for ten years be set aside for the crea-
| ton of reserve fund to provide against
| losses, emergencies. reductions of income
| and the diminishing purchasing power of
money He also declared that this would
| give the institution more time to stud~
suggestions submitted to 1t and permit 1t
/ to avoid the danger of premature action,
| holding that new ideas ought to be tested
on small scale before going into them
deeply.

two strains of tailess chickens, in which
the results are strikingly like those in
the case of the Florida manatee, whose
hind legs have ceased to exist except in
rudimentary form. In connection with
the eugenics record Office q study has
been made Of epilepsy in man, using as
basis over 300 families with one or
more epileptics in them. 1t was found
that If both parents are without the
character that makes for neural strength,
all the children lack 1t: but If both par
ents possess it and yet belong to weak
strains one-fourth of the children may
be expected to be nervously undeveloped.
There is series of islands off the
coast of Maine where, owing to their
isolation, consanguinous marriages are
very frequent, and the people living there
have consented to assist the department
in a thorough investigation as to whether
or not such marriages have been dele
terious. Little by little these intricate
Investigations are disclosing new laws
of heredity, and revealing the secret OF
sex control, secret that has defied the
ages, and one whose possession would be
of incalculable economic value to the
race

work undertaken by the institution Is
that being carried forward by the geo.

research have revealed many secrets
hitherto safely locked away from science.
The Salton sea has afforded an at
tractive field for the seeker after botani-
cal truth. For six years the effect Of its
gradual subsistence upon plant life has
been watched The original maximum
depth of eighty-four feet has been re-
duced by an evaporation of about seventy
two inches year, about one-third OF
which has been replaced by infiowing
water. Here conditions which existed
in some places geologic ages ago are
being observed today, and the resulting
changes in plant life are following. thus
affording a miniature reproduction of
certain phases of geologic history. In
the San Francisco bay salt works the
micro organisms in the brine are being
studied. They have to live in brine that
varies in strength from that Of rain
diluted sea water to that Of an almost
completely saturated salt solution. 1t
has been found that they not only change
their mode of living to meet these
changed conditions. but their modes of
reproduction as well.
The botanists are taking cross sec
tons of some of the oldest trees in the
world and by studying their rings are
able to tell what sort of climate existed
through some 1000 years of American
history. Forty thousand measurements
have been taken. and from these it is
hoped that the story of the climate of
ancient America will be told accurately.
These are only a few of the many ac-
tivities Of this important department. The
study of plant heredity is being carried
forward. and new species are being es-
tablished.
The institution has a department of
economics and sociology which is labor
ing to gather together all Of the socio-
logical and economic literature of the
country.

QUESTION OF SUPPORTING
TAFT LEFT TO VOTERS
Iowa State Convention Re-
fuses to Indorse Platform
Adopted at Chicago.

DES MONIES. Iowa, July 11.-Eforts
of Gov. B. T. Carroll, a Taft adherent,
to have the republican state convention
yesterday pass a resolution indorsing the
platform adopted at the national conven-
| ton failed. being tabled, 773 to 342. and
his effort to eliminate from the report of
the majority OF the resolutions commit
tee the section condemning as fraudu-
lent the Chicago convention also failed.
Gov. Carroll was a member of the reso-
lutions committee, but the majority re-
port. as adopted by the convention, was
written by the progressves. who con-
trolled the convention throughout.
Neither Taft nor Roosevelt was men
toned in the resolutions adopted. which
commend republican achievements and
indorse progressive policies"
1.-The republicans of Iowa" declared the
resolutions, believe in the rule Of the
people. We believe that the popular Will.
when fairly expressed in convention or
primary. should be faithfully observed.
Grave aud serious abuses of the con-
vention and caucus system OF nominal
ing our national candidates have brought
the party to condition In which great
numbers of our loyal adherents question
the integrity of the nominations made by
our national convention. However. We
urge upon every republican to stand 10y
ally by all of the party nominations
made in the state, in districts and in
counties. leaving to his individual con-
science the controversy over the national
nominations.
Demonstration for Roosevelt.
Gov. Carroll precipitated a demonstra-
ton for Roosevelt which lasted for more
than twenty minutes when he said that
the republican national platform was
not tainted but was adopted regardless
of whether the delegates were aligned
with Taft or Roosevelt.
When order was restored the resolu-
tons embodied in the majority report of
the committee We're adopted without roll
call. They included request that the
legislature submit the question of votes
for women to the people, and Endorsed
direct nomination of President, Vice
President and United States senator's.
The committee declined to include in it's
report the suggestion of Senator Albert
B. Cummins for a commission to inves-
tigate the manner in which President
Taft was renominated at Chicago.
Earlier in the afternoon the convention
nominated for the state supreme court
Judge r. r. Gaynor of Sioux City, and
Judge H. l.. Preston of Oskaloosa.
Delegates from Iowa to the Roosevelt
progressive party convention in Chicago
August will be named at a state con-
vention to be held here July "a, according
to plans adopted at a meeting of the pro-
gressive delegates in the republican con-
vention, which was held last night imme-
diately after adjournment Of the con-
vention.

in the hope that some new lessons OF
electricity may be learned.
During last year G. Harold Drew car
ried out series of observations which
are said to justify the belief that he
probably has discovered one of the most
interesting facts yet revealed through
the study Of oceanography. He found
that the most abundant bacillus, at
depths between ten fathoms and the sur
face of the water of Jamaica and Tortu-
gas. is form that possesses the capacity
to convert all the nitrates Of the water
into nitrites AMI finally to expel all the
nitrogen from the sea in the form of
gas, thus depriving the surface waters
of the ocean of nitrogen, which accounts
for the comparative paucity OF marine
life in those regions.
DIR. T. Wayland Vaughan is making
study of the growth Of coral reefs. and
is rearing many colonies under natural

activities of the department of marine
biology, but they serve to indicate the

gradually is bringing out knowledge
which will be of infinite aid to the men
who take abstract truths and from them
make the worlds applied science.
