Sir William Ram- say is the greatest chemist and it is upon the gases of the air, of which he is the discoverer of several, that he will deal with in his lectures here.

He has already obtained a remarkable result, which he says must {be regarded as transmutation—the changing of a gas evolved from radium salts into helium. Professor de Vries is the greatest botanist and a member of the faculty | of the University of Amsterdam, Hol- land. He has been very successful in some recent experiments with the prim- rose, and his deductions go to prove the theories of the origin of species. He has already provided the university with a lot of primrose seeds which he ~will use in his demonstrations. Professor Svante Arrhenius holds the honor of being the first physicist. He fills the chair of general physics at the University of Stockholm, besides In- the English department the sum- mer school will be particularly well | equipped. Two members of the faculty will come from the East and the third from California. Francis B. Gummere | of Haverford College and Hammond Lamont, editor of the New York Even- ing Post, both of them prominent be- fore the reading public, will give a se- ries of lectures on a subject in Eng- lish vet to be -chosen. Professor | Chauncey Wetmore Wells of California | will give a course in rapid writing. | The Romanic languages will be taught by Professor C. H. Grandgent of Harvard University, Professor F. de Haan of Bryn Mawr and Marius J. Spinnello of California. They will in- struct in French, Spanish and Italian, | respectively. School teachers will have the benefit which he is at the head of the National Serum Institute of that country. His first work of distinction was the publi- of instruction in education from Pro- fessor F. M. McMurray, professor of education at Columbia University and one of the first authorities on-the sub- cation of his electrolytic dissociation theory, an explanation of the manner in which electricity separates many substances into their elements. Of late he has been applying himself to the ap- plication of serum to the cure of dis- eases, and his resdlts in this direction he offers to give to the students at the summer school. . ATTAINMENTS NOTEWORTHY. Professor James Ward ranks as the leading psychologist of the world. He is a fellow of Trjnity College and pro- Ject in America, and Dr#E. C. Moore of the educational department of the University of California. GEOLOGIST FROM CANADA. From Canada will come Reginald A. Daly to give instruction in geology. Mr. Daly was formerly in the employ of the Canadian Government as a ge- ologist and he is recognized as an authority on the subject of the earth's formation and crust. A. S.
