Whoever has been to blame in the past, it is not for ug to say. It i now-up td us to Boos Kmeston, and we intend to do it, and the present aldermen apparently are the right men in the right place. Blame eannot be: attached to them if the city not forge ahead.

Cwde, the widow of the late Prof. Curie, the discoverer of radium, and Prof. Langevin, of the College of Framce, ywhien is. printed by many of the newspapers. The Journal states thet the pro- fessor, who is at the hesd of the de partment of physies in the Collegy of France, bad left his home some timo ago; taking his two little children him; and thdt Madame Curie, with whom he had been on most friendly terms since the death of hor husband, had also disappeared, Mrs. Langevin has brought a suit for separation against the professor, and has also secured an o from eourt that: she be ullowed to see her children. According to one paper the romance between the professor and the 'bril- liant widow I)gan.three years ago, al- though Langevin did not leave his home until last June. The professor and the widow are of the same age, about forty-two. The Journal prints an interview with the mother of Mme. Langevin, in which. the latter says that she and her daughter have letters written hy Mme. Curie» which prove the truth of their suspicions. Mme. Cute has not been. at Sorbonne for some time, but this is not unusual, as she does not teach during the fitst half-yeur term. She has been scen as usual st her labora: tory in the Rue de Cigvier until the last fow weeks. oe A member of the Academy express. ied the opinion that the *incident"' will injure Mme, Curie's chinees of election to the Institute of France, and it may ruin the chande hereafter of any learned woman being elected to that body. Mme. Curie is in Brussels with Profs. Henri Poincare, Perrin, Brillouin and Lamgevin, representing French scéience at the conference on modern physics, : Mme. Curie and Prof. Lungevin both deny the story printed in the Journal and other papers, ""It is disgraceful," stid Mme. Curie. Prof. Langevin admitted he left his - wife "owing to scenes her which bad boon brongl' on by her jealousy. He added, "nv rela. tivns with Mme.
