He, however, became so fascinated with his work -that he staid on and studied Chemistry and Miner- alogy. In October of 1850 he went to Louis- ville, Ky., as Assistant to Professor Benjamin Silliman, Jr., of the Univer- sity there. In 1852 he was one of six, after examination, to get the newly created degree of Ph.B. from Yale. In that same year he was Assistant in Chemistry in the University of Virginia, where, with Professor J. L. Smith, he made a series of valuable examinations of American minerals. In 1853-1855 he studied at Munich and Freiburg, and in 1855 was elected Professor of Metal- lurgy in the Sheffield Scientific School. In 1864 he changed this chair for that of Mineralogy. After a course of study in. the Royal School of Mines, at London, and a visit to the principal mines and smelt- ing works of Europe, he returned to this country and in January, 1857, en- tered upon his new duties. He has been Secretary and Treasurer of the Sheffield Scientific School and since the formal organization of the Faculty in 1872 has been Director of the Governing Board. He is a member of a large number of scientific societies in this country and abroad and has pub- lished a number of very valuable books. In 1868 he was elected to the National Academy of Sciences, and in 1880 was chosen President of the American Association for the Advancement. of Science. Professor Brush’s chief life work, however, has been in connection with the Sheffield School. He gradu- science in America. _ the ated with its first class and to him more than any other man is due the success the School has attained. PROFESSOR R. H. CHITTENDEN. Russell Henry Chittenden was born in New Haven, Conn., on February 18, 1856. He graduated from the Yale Scientific School with the Class of Seventy-Five, and then began his studies in the University of Heidelberg. In 1876 he became Instructor in Chem- istry in the Shefheld Scientific School, and in 1880 received the degree of Ph.D. for his researches in Chemistry. In 1882 he became Professor of Phy- siological Chemistry. He has contrib- uted to a large number of magazines, and has been called upon to give expert testimony in many criminal cases. He easily stands at the head of his chosen He has, from the time of his entering college, been actively engaged in the investigation of physiological chemical problems. His most important work has been the investigation of chemistry of the diges- tive process, summed up in his book entitled ‘““Digestive Proteolysis,” which was published in 1894. Professor Chittenden is President of American Physiological Society, and was lately made Director of Physiological Chemistry at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Colum- bia University. With Professor Gooch he represents the chemists of the Uni- versity in the National Academy of Science. AND HARVARD WINS. A Magnificent Eleven Overwhelms Vale, Outplaying Her at Every Point—A Five-Minute Yale Rally at the End. There were Yale spectators at Satur- day’s game who made up their minds, soon after its beginning, that the best way to get something out of the after- noon was to keep their eyes on the Harvard Eleven, and watch the contest from the sole standpoint of interest in the game of football as such. There may have been those who succeeded in carrying out this idea. If there were any, they have many admirable things to recall about Saturday afternoon. They saw Captain Dibblee’s ideal team execute an ideal game of football. It is a very fair record for an eleven, playing in a northeast storm on a field partly covered with water, that the only slip of the afternoon in two fierce halves of championship football was one poor kick. The Harvard back must have put his foot or the ball, or both together, about an inch out of true, at that par- ticular moment. The writer is a lay- man and knows he misses a good deal of the technique of this delicate game; but, after conning a notebook that looks like a series of charcoal sketches, and trying out his memory, this is the most [Continued on 7oth page. | A “DIAGRAM OF THE PLAYS.

OF< ae eee The Yale Scientific Monthly has re- cently opened an office on the second floor of Sheffield Hall. This room, which was formerly occupied’as a pri- vate office by Professor Brewer, was given to the Scientific Monthly board last June. The editors expect to occupy the room in a very short time, and con- tributions have already been received from members of former _ editorial boards with which to furnish the room.
