AGASS1Z CENTENNIAL.
Illustrious Swifts AVas American
Adoption.
Boston, Mass., May 27. The cen
tennial celebration in honor of the
memory of Louis Agassiz, which will
occupy the attention of educators
and scientists of New England and
other parts of the country ns well,
during the greater part of this week,
promises to be an usual demonstration.
Cambridge, the adopted home of
the illustrious scientist and the rcene
of his labors for many years, will be
the seat of the principal celebration.
A principal event of the celebration
will be a public reunion of the sur
viving pupils of Agassiz to be held
this evening In Sanders theater. At
this meeting, Colonel Thomas Went
worth Higginson will preside and
brief addresses will be made by
President Charles W. Eliot of Har
vad university. Professor A. Law
rence Lowell of the Scientist School
and Professor William H. NUes of
tie Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology. Professor Agassis, whose Influence
on scientific Investigation In Ameri
ca was probably greater and more
lasting than that of any one else,
was of French Hugenot ancestry,
and a native of Switzerland, In which
country he was born May 28, 1807.
He studied botany In his youth at
Motlers and Orbe, and medicine,
physiology, anatomy and zoology at
Zurich and Heidelberg. He came to
America in 1848 on a scientific mis
sion for the king of Prussia and. to
deliver a course of lectures In Bos
ton- He accepted a professorship
lu the newly founded scientific
school at Cambridge, and entered
upon his duties there In 1848, having
secured an honorable discharge from
tie Prussian government.
Agassis never returned to Prussia.
He married a Cambridge woman and
settled in that city, afterward be
coming one of the faculty of Harvard
university, but before this came
about he had established several sta
tions along the coast line as far
touth as Charleston, where he and
pupils who followed him made local
.Investigations of zoological study.
Professor Agassis made the discov
ery of copper ore In the peninsula
of Michigan that led to .the found
ing ef the great Calumet Hecla
Mining compary, which has since
poured millions of dollars into the
coffers of leading families of Bos
ton. While travelling through the
