Figuring CoIors of Metals.

A method by which numerical values for the colOrs of metals has been Ob- tained and described recently in for eign contemporary. The metal sample is polished with emery, and is then photographed through blue grass screen. The time of exposure, time of development of the plate, temperature of the developer and all other condi- tions must be reproduced exactly in order to obtain comparable results. The density of the resulting negative is measured in Sanger-Shepherd densometer, and the result calculated to scale in which the color value for silver is 0 and that of copper is 50. The results obtained show that an increase of coloration in the metal does give a higher "color figure" but the method can detect no difference between pure and standard" silver silver 92.5 per cent, copper 7.5 per cent and is only just sufficiently sensitive to distinguish between German silvers having respectively 15 and 2 per cent of nickel,

Old Prussian Town.

Osnabruck is one of the most vener- able towns Of Prussia. In the closing years of the eighth century Charle- magne designated it as the capital of bishopric, distinction which 1t en- joyed without interruption for more than thousand years. In 1903 the see was suppressed, the last bishop being Frederick. duke of York, son of the English Hanoverian monarch, George III. In 1858 the city was restored to it's religious eminence when it was again made the seat of Roman Catholic bishop.
