LOGAR|THMS FIRST.
USED IN GE RMANY,
SCIENTIST CLAIMS.
CaSSel Student Denies InVen-
ton of Mathematical De-
vice Was Made BY
British Subject

CASSEL, Germany, Feb. 2S.-Lo-
garithms were originally devised by
Jobst Buergi. a German matchmaker
in the employ of Lnadgrave william
" of Hesse, and not by the Scots
man, Lord Napier, as commonly be-
lieved, according to statements made
by DR.. Breithaupt, prominent Cas-
sci scientist, addressing a meeting
here OF the Hessian Historical asso-
citation.
DR.. Breithaupt assertions were
made in the course of an address on
the life of William w, or william
the Wise" whom he described as one
of the most renowned of royal as
tronomers. William lived during the
middle of the Sixteenth century anu
founded the elder line of the house
of Hesse, known as Hesse- Cassel. The
speaker discussed also Williams
chief assistant, Eberhard Baldewein,
who was tailor in Marburg by pro-
fession, but won high favor with the
landgrave because of his clever and
inventive mind.
William ~, the speaker related,
erected workshop in which he en-
ployed several hand laborers, one OF
whom was a smith whose handiwork
Baldewein also showed exceptional
aptitude in carrying out and improv-
ing Williams designs. Among his
creations still in existence is a large
planetary apparatus, the so-called as
Economical clock, which belongs to
the provincial museum of Cassel.
Advance i'm Astronomy.
THE landgrave was the first as
tronomer to introduce time as an ele-
ment capable of observation" DR..
Breithaupt declared. "a Nuernber-
ger clockmaker made him a clock
showing seconds, and BaIdewein en-
larged upon it in such way that
the landgrave could simultaneously
clocks ticking of seconds, in the
celestial globe. 1t was though for
long time that the landgrave al
ready possessed a pendulum clock.
Then he took into his employ a
matchmaker, Jobst Buergi (Justus
Byrguis) and this man it was who,
while in Cassel, originated logar-
ithms. Hitherto it has been under
stood that the Scottish Lord Napier,
Baron of Merchiston, who issued To-
garithmic tables in Edinburg in 1914,
was the creator of logarithms, and
that Buergi acquired this distinction
at the same time, without knowing
of Napier's work"
DIR. Breithaupt declared that Jo-
ham Kepler, founder of modern as
tronomy, who was born in Wuert-
temberg in 1871 and became re-
nowned as father of the Keplerian
planetary laws. had given Buergi the
credit for originating logarithms, IN
one of his published works.
Buergi was born in 1871 and was
for a time attached to the imperial
court as matchmaker and manufac-
turer of celestial globes. He died
here in 1852.

INF ROVEMENT IN
HA|TTS ECONOMIC
CONDITION SHOWN
Volume of Trade for Year Is
Greatly Increased, Report
of Customs Head
Indicates

PORT-AU- PRINCE, Feb. 23.-The
report of the receiver general OF Gus
toms for Haiti, for the year ,nded
September 80, shows a decidedly
healthy economic improvement. The
collection of customs for that period
was s4,672.993, as compared to
$3,6o6,173 for the preceding IL
months. Even more favorable are
the combined collections for October
and November of 1922, with the total
of s1,076,159, as compared with $780,
829 for the corresponding month of
1921.
The volume of trade for the year
IS $23,062,481, as contrasted with
$16,910,775 for the previous IL
months, while the imports aggre-
gate $12,350.271 against s11,s57,2o6
and the exports s10.712,210 in place
of s4,s53,570. A recapitulation Of the
imports shows the United States lead
ing, with a value of s10,359,613; the
United Kingdom second with s763.363,
and France third with $642.3S2. The
United States figures show an in
crease of SS16,602, while the United
Kingdom fell of s55,3s3 and France
$495,207.
United states Second
In the export trade the United
States was second with a volume of
$1,43S,755, France having S6,018,524
and the United Kingdom $3.50. It's.
France is heavy consumer OF
Haitian coffee, having taken more
than S5,0o0000 worth OF this pro-
duct. In Haiti's export trade coffee
leads with s7,487,312. the other ex-
ports in volume being cotton, $1.547,-
205; sugar, s537.475; dyewoods $780,
s53; cacao, s274.124; goatskins, s62,-
1852; honey, s62,o76; lignum vitae and
mahogany, $27,014. Miscellaneous
exports are shells, old copper, bees
was, lignum vitae, wax and corn.
With the exception of cotton. coffee
and honey the great bulk of these
products went to the United States.
The figures also show, in COMPARE
son with those OF last year, that cot
ton and cacao trebled in volume, and
that honey doubled.
The total collections from all
sources by the receiver general, in
Guiding the balance of s4,391,16 car
ried over from the fiscal year OF
1921, amounted to $9,41s,542 and ex-
penditures and dispositions to $780,
1871, leaving a balance of $1,464, $50.
The gain of 73 per cent in volume
of trade, the increased expenditure
of money for the use of the Haitian
government, and the great Increase
in collections since the dating Of the
report, with the beginning of the
payment of interest on the internal
bonds held so largely by Haitians,
usher in what promises to be ban
ner year for Haiti.
