(American News Servie Washington, March 2. The Carnegie Institution of Washington has just issued Its eighth Year Book, a volume of about 250 pages, containing a resume of the work1 accomplished under the auspices of the Institution during the year 1900. The Year Book comprises the annual reports -of the president, the executive committee, and the directors of various departments of research, together with reports upon the progress of other investigations carried on by individual grantees and associates of the Institution. There is also included a bibliography of papers and reports on these investigations which have appeared in various journals during the year. The scope of the work undertaken y the Institution has broadened until as shown by the present report, investigations have been carried on in more than thirty different fields of research and extended into more than forty different countries. Two astronomical observatories and five labaratories are maintained, and the equipment of the various establishments located in different parts of the United States includes 58 buildings, a specially designed ship, and eight smaller craft Meridian Observatory. As a notable event of the past year the president cites the establishment and active operation of the observatory of the department of Meridian Astrometry, at San Luis, in Argentina, under the direction' of Prof. Lewis Boss. The work of observation of the southern stars was begun in April last, and is now proceeding at a rate heretofore unequaled in this branch of astronomy. Observations made with the meridian-circle, transferred with great care at San Luis from the Dudley Observatory in Albany, New York, wiy be
combined with corresponding observations made at Albany. Another event of prime importance during the year has been the completion ana the initial cruise of the nonmagnetic ship "Carnegie," now making a magnetic survey of the Atlantic Ocean, under the direction of the Department of Terrestrial Magnetism. This ship was launched on June 12, 190 and set sail upon her first voyage ou August 21, last. During her voyage across the Atlantic errors of prime importance to navigation were found in the best magnetic charts now used by mariners. The Solar Observatory. At the Solar Observatory in California, the tiO-inch equatorial reflecting telescope has been tested and found highly satisfactory. The construction of a new tower telescope, 150 feet high above the ground and 75 feet below ground, has been begun. In addition to the further interpretation of the nature of sun-spots, it is expected that an investigation of the electro-magnetic properties shown by the sun, in conjunction with observations made by the Department of Terrestrial Magnetism on "storms" to which the earth's magnetism is subject, will result in a
(distinct advance in this field of re
search.

A Pert Reply. A story told of Sir John Fisher and Lord Charles Beresford when both were stationed in the Mediterranean will bear repeating. A competition bad been held at Malta for a prize annually presented by Sir John. It is known as the Malta cup. and, having so far always been won by a crew belonging to the admiral's flagship, it was fully expected by Sir John that this record would be maintained. On this particular occasion, however, a crew of the Ramillies. commanded by Lord Charles Beresford, carried it oft Instead. A day or two later the fleet was practicing maneuvers, and Admiral Fisher, whose reputation as a stern disciplinarian Is well known, was dissatisfied with the performance of the Ramillies. He signaled accordingly to its commander the message, "Explain your reason for being late in executing maneuver." Without a moment's delay the answer came. "We are towing the Malta cup." Dundee Advertiser.
Christian Behring, a well known tailor, was recommended by the South Side Improvement association as park commissioner for the South Seventh
and Tenth street parks, at the meeting
of the organization last evening. Mr. Behring's-endorsement by the associa
tion meets with the approval of almost every citizen in the south part of the city, as his ability is welKknown,
he having been commissioner for several years, previous to the Schillinger administration. Th3 position pays about $30 a month. That the parks may be kept in the best of condition, it requires almost constant attention of the caretaker. There is an agitation to have the salary raised to 35 a month. It was reported at the meeting that

the factory building for the National Automatic Tool works, would be completed in the event of good weather, by April 1. The contractor has been delayed so much by cold' weather this winter that the progress made appears to have been very slow, but when the small number of days possible to work is considered, the progress made is regarded as very good. Frank Altensehule, Frank Endsfield. Frank Nuechter, Joe Schattel and Henry Quartz were made members of the boosting organization last evening.

WAS BADLY SMASHED
Much interest was manifested in the clearing of the wreck of the freight train, which occurred Monday night, east of the junction. The engine went with such force on the derail that when it left the track and went into the embankment, it buried its "nose" about three feet into the mud. It was stuck so tight that the wreck train of the local division could not operate and so the steam crane at Bradford, Ohio, was called into service. It required but a short time for cables to be attached to the engine and to place it on the track again. A large number witnessed the raising of the engine.
