A certain professor in the Chicago uni- versity is an enthusiastic antiquarian. He loves to communicate his tastes in this direction to others end always encourages the members of his history class to collect curios of historic interest During one quarter one of .the seniors in the class stood in imminent danger of "flunking,' Heroic measures were neces- sary in order to pass. but he was equal to the occasion. One day, after class, he approached the professor with a curious fabric made of woven riugs in his hand. "Professor," he said, "1 have here a valuable relic of the Indian wars. It is a piece of chain armor worn by General Dearborn in the memorable siege of Fort Dearborn. It was used by the general to protect himself against the arrows of his Indian foes. My grandfather dug it up years ago on the site of the old fort. I wish you would accept it as a present and place it in the museum.'

We have it on the authority of Mr. W. R. Wheeler, who has devoted many years to the study of such matters, that in the bay of Biscay, frequently during the au- tumn and winter in cairn weather, a heavy sea gets up and rolls in on the coast four and twenty hours before the gale which causes it arrives and of which it is the pre - ludo In this case the wave action, goner- ' ated on the other side of the Atlantic by the wind, travels at:a much greater rate than that of the body of disturbed air and thus gives warning of the coining storm. Upon the great lakes of North America fishermen and boatmen have learned to forecast storms by observations of the un- dulations to which the waters of the lakes are subject, and a direct inquiry into the matter, by means of self recording gauges to show the fluctuations of level of the sur face of the water, has now proved that these undulations provide earlier and more distinct indications of approaching storms than are given by the barometer.- Pearson's Weekly Coneolat ion.
