students and the University of Penn sylvania proposes to have it's stu dents make study of municipal problems.
 It is a matter of general knowledge that most of the officials of the cities of the country are not properly train ed for the duties they are called up on to perform In some countries there is a professional office-holding class, composed of men who are specially educated and trained for public service. In the United States the municipal and other officials have been selected because of their politi- cal affiliations or their personal pop ularity, with the logical result that the people have paid very dearly for inefficient service.
 AS business and professional men very generally refuse to accept pub lie office, unless they have made a failure of their chosen vacations, the office-holding is usually left to men who are poorly equipped for any kind of effective work. It is impossible of course, to remedy this condition i'm mediately but with municipal govern ment becoming more of an exact science and the, public demanding greater efficiency in public office, it is important that the younger men. the pupils in the schools, be given more training and education in the methods of municipal administration.

A REMARKABLE MINERAL IN

This is tale from Russia that sounds as if it might have emanated from almost any quarter of the globe its geographical significance is Of small account. It runs somewhat as follows (how long it will run IS an other question:: In the Namang- anska mountains in the district Of Ferghana, a new metal has been dis covered whose properties are surpris- ing and remarkable. A prospector, searching for valuable ores in these mountains, found, besides rich de- posits of asbestos, and rare ores of different kinds, dough-like metallic substance of dirty brown color, which was not known to either chem ists or metallurgists before. He sent a sample of the stuff to the chemical laboratory in Moskva, where 1t was analysed and experimented on with most surprising results. When the ore was treated with acids an intense cold was developed. The glass that held the acid was disintegrated into powder. Vessels of stone and porce- lain were reduced in the same man ner Iron vessels 10 hold the acid were then tried. but they exploded instantly and were reduced to atoms. The chemists then tried it on large piece of granite This was instant ly disintegrated and reduced to gray eI without explosion or generation of gas of any kind. When alkalines were brought into contact with this new substance the vessel containing the alkaline lost 20 per cent in weight So far as the chemists have vet been able to ascertain, this new substance is in no way related to radium. One of the most curious phenomena concerning it is that sub stances coming in contact with it lose much of their weight. Selah! !-~Min- ing Science.

A CONGRESS OF THRIFT.

The recently organized American Society of Thrift proposes to enlarge the scope of its activities and will call an international conference to he held at San Francisco during the Panama exposition. Arrangements are now under way to procure the CO., operation of other nations in the gathering.
 All organizations. banking, con- mercial land industrial, which are seeking higher standards of thrift and efficiency will be invited to take part in the congress. The main sub ject under discussion will be better ways and methods of meeting high living costs. Among the kindred top ics which will also be discussed are the following:
 International peace in it's thrift
 aspect.
 Public school gardening as a
 means of promoting thrift among
 the rising generation.
 Precautions for safety and the
 profit involved both in lives and
 limbs, as both money and prop
 erty are forms of thrift.
 The idea of the congress is an ad- mirable one, and, if it's discussions are given large circulation and if the right organizations are brought to take part in it, it will be productive of much good.
 Thrift is largely matter of educa- tion. It must be confessed that in this important respect the United States is a considerable distance be- hind several of the European nations. Their experience, as disclosed in the congress, should be valuable to us, and if we make the most of what we are likely to learn through this gath ering 1t will take its place as one of the most useful conventions which have assembled in the nation for many years. -'>: ...
