SCIENTIFIC SCHOOL CATALOGUE.

The catalogue of graduates of the Lawrence Scientific School, the announcement of the publication of which lately appeared in the CRIMSON, is the first of its kind ever issued by the school. Of the 331 men whose names are published many have attained distinction in later life. The first class, graduated in 1851, had but four members. Since that time, with but few exceptions the numbers have steadily increased, until in 1895 twenty-five men were graduated.

All four of the graduates of 1851 have achieved notable successes: William L. Jones, professor of geology in the University af Georgia; Joseph Le Conte, professor of geology and natural history in the University of California; John D. Runkle, professor of mathematics in Mass. Institute of Technology; and David A. Wells, the famous economist.

In the class of 1854 are Henry J. Clark, assistant professor of zoology at Harvard; Charles H. Hudson, chief engineer of the Southern Railway; and John M. Richardson, President of Bowdon College, Georgia. Two prominent graduates of the class of 1855 are George C. Caldwell, professor of chemistry at Cornell, and Francls H. Storer, professor of agricultural chemistry at Harvard.

Among the other graduates have been J. F. Carret, the present curator of the Boston Public Library; W. R. Ware, professor of architecture at Columbia, from the class of 1856; Alexander Agassiz, curator of the Harvard University Museum; William Watson, corresponding secretary of the American Academy of Science, from the class of '57; J. M. Crafts, professor of chemistry, Mass. Institute of Technology; David Smith, chief engineer U. S. N., from 1858; Daniel Cady Eaton, professor of botany, Yale University; and Geo. A. Osborne, professor of mathematics, Mass. Institute of Technology, from 1860; S. H. Scudder, of the U. S. Geological Survey; Professor N. S. Shaler, Dean of the Scientific School; Addison E. Verrill, professor of zoology at Yale; and Burt G. Wilder, professor of comparative anatomy and zoology at Cornell, from the class of 1862; James Cosmo Newberry, of the British Civil Service, from 1864; Ernest W. Longfellow, the eminent artist; Professor Edward C. Pickering; and Professor John Trowbridge, from the class of 1865.

From later classes have graduated Regis Chavuenet '67, president of State School of Mines, Colorado: Professor William M. Davis '69; Charles H. Wing '70, professor of chemistry, Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Isaac Sharpless '73, president of Haverford College; Howard Ayers '83, professor of biology, University of Missouri; William Patten '83, professor of biology and zoology at Dartmouth; Henry L. Smith '85, assistant professor of mining engineering, Harvard; Robert Payne Bigelow '87, librarian, and instructor in biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Ralph S. Tarr '91, professor of geology at Cornell; and Thomas G. Lee '92, professor of histology at the University of Minnesota.

Of the 331 graduates, only 43 have died, and every graduate since 1870 is now living.
