Abstract
THERE is no end to the generosity of M. Bischoffsheim. Not so very many years ago he endowed science with an observatory at Nice, and now again he has presented another, and this one is at the high altitude of over 8900 feet The observatory is situated on the summit of Mont Mounier, one of the peaks in the Maritime Alps. The advisability of having it at this spot was suggested by M. Bischoffsheim himself.
