Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the Kansas Academy of Science, Vol. 19 The State Printing Board has recently honored a requisition for 500 volumes of binding, an order equal to our requisitions for the past six years, and this order will enable us to clear up our mass of loose pamphlets, which are difficult to care for. Two hundred and fifty of these volumes are now at the state bindery, and others will be sent near the end of the year. An effort is being made to eu large our library and make it more complete, and the secretary recommends that the Academy set aside a fund of 8100 for new books. Photographs - The secretary has secured fifty photographs of Academy members. These have been secured through repeated letters, sent in some cases three or four times. We have photographs of nearly half the members now and we are going after the other half; so be prepared for another set of letters on this subject.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the Kansas Academy of Science, 1873 A few words with regard to the resistance of a medium, and I close. Only the orbits of short-period comets have been determined with any approach to accuracy; and of these, Encke's has the least perihelion distance. This comet, too, has a shortening of its period, apparently in consequence of the resistance of the medium through which it passes. Is it not probable, too, that such a resistance is the explanation of some of the irregularities of the comets of long period? Thus the comet of 1264 and 1556 was expected to return in 1848. May it not be that the comet of 1843 was the identical one with its period shortened? The comet of 1843 passed very near the sun; nearer even than Encke's comet. Arago made a study of the records of Halley's comet, to determine if possible whether in its successive reappear ances it had lost any of its brilliancy. He thought it had lost nothing. May not this again be due to the probable fact that in successive returns the comet approaches nearer the sun, encounters more and more of the resistance of the medium, and therefore tends to develop more fully the phenomena of the tail, which would otherwise be less developed, because the nucleus must be losing some of its volatile elements? Thus questions of interest press upon us, and astronomy, though the oldest of the sciences, is ever opening new and attractive fields of study.

As our labors the past six months were devoted to the collection of vertebrate fossils from the Niobrara, our examination of the former was casual, and only along the line of their union. The fossils of the two were found in situ and within ten vertical feet of each other, and frequently in the shales, mingled together.
