Prince of Monaco Makes a 8plendld Gift to the University Results of His Own Research. Tho University Library has received an exceedingly beautiful and valuable gift from tho Prlnco of Monaco. It consists of a number of books embody ing the results of scientific trips mado by him on his -yacht. They'are1 on' titled "Tho Results of tho Scientific Campaigns" and treat almost exclu sively of marine zoology. Tho paper used Is tho very best obtainable, as aro tho plates, most of which are colored, and the printing 1b absolutely free from a single typographical error. Tho books are, at least as far as out ward appearance la concerned, tho fin est in tho University Library, and probably the finest in the world. Their value Is estimated at about four hundred dollars. This gift was secured through the efforts of Dr. Ward, who Is a friend of the- Prince. The Prlnco spends a large part of his Immense Income, which Includes several millions annually from tho Casino at Monte Carlo, for scientific purposes. His yacht, the "PrlncosB Ellse," Is tho finest and best equipped boat In the world for deep sea zoology. Ho pays6poclal attention to the "eluci dation of life at .depths of from one to five miles below sea level, demon strating 'the existence of organisms at depths at -which life was thought im possible. Tho specimens collected during' his trips aro kept at tho Mo naco Museum, tho most complete ex hibit of oceanography in the world. Only five schools in tho United States wore presented with copies of hlB latest work, tho University of Ne braska "being one because. ofjts cen tral western-position, the facility for communication with, scientists of this section it affords, and because of the acquaintance between Dr. Ward and the Prince. It is interesting ,Jn this connection to know that tho wife of tho Prince Is ,tho only American who has gained royal rank. Her father was a San Francisco, banker and she was edu cated 'in Europe.
