Wisconsin Men
Vie For Bryan
Cash Rewards
MADISON, Wis., Jan. 13.-Stu-
dents attending the University of
Wisconsin this year have the oppor-
tunity of competing for a cash prize
to be paid out of funds given to the
University by that famous Ameri-
can, William Jennings Bryan, way
back in 1899, almost 33 years ago.
In February, 1899, Bryan, "The
Great Commoner," gave to the Bad-

ger University the sum of $250 which,
under the stipulations of the grant,
was to be invested and the annual
proceeds used for a prize for the best
essay upon "The Science of Govern-
ment." No expenditure of income
was to be anticipated, but the in-
come was to be awarded upon the
recommendation of the faculty. The
income could be accumulated and a
prize offered of such amount as the
University board of regents shall
think fit from such accumulated in-
come, the stipulations declared.
Following acceptance of the fund
in 1899, prizes were awarded almost
annually, but since 1917 no prize has
been granted. In that year the re-
gents adopted a resolution which
provided that the accrued interest
in the prize funds be added to the
principal and that portion of income
of prize funds not used in any year
shall be added to the principal also
As a result of this action, the Wil-
liam J. Bryan prize fund now
amounts to $741.77, and the prize
this year will be awarded from this
amount.

Transportation Library Praised,
For Its Aid In Cultural Research.

"For the student of the interest-
ing and cultural background of en-
gineering found in research into the
hsitory of the subject, the Transpor-
tation Library, with its 75,000 items,
forms a valuable nucleus for exam-
ination of documents and prints dat-
ing back to the earliest days of
American history," commented Prof.
John S. Worley, of the engineering
college who is curator of the library.
In pointing out unique sidelights
on characters famous in the annals
of American engineering history,
Professor Worley named Robert Ful-
ton as one of the most interesting,
and one most misunderstood by the
public at large. Known for his de-
velopment of the first practical
steamboat, an artist by profession,
engineer in his leisure time, writer
on the subject of canals, and world
traveller, Fulton's entire life can be
traced through his interesting and
valuable books which are a part of
the library's priceless collection.
Early Fulton Book Held
The first of the books used to il-
lustrate the above by Professor Wor-
ley was Fulton's "Treatise on Im-
provement of Canal Navigation,"
published in New York in 1796. Al-
though rebound in a standard cloth.
binding the beauty of the book is
still. evident in the fine typography
and above all in the detailed draw-
ings at which Fulton is more than
adept. The problem during this pe-
riod in American history, when
canals seemed the logical transpor-
tation system for the country, was
to keep them filled with water after
costly evaporation and the waste in
the process of locking had taken
their toll.
Fulton came to the rescue with a

new system of narrower canals and
rail runways which he described in
this volume. The work was translat-
ed into French when Fulton visited
that country in 1800, but, not liking
his illustrations they substituted
some which are greatly inferior from
a modern point of view. From an
obscure second-hand dealer in Brazil
Professor Worley secured a Portu-
guese translation of this same book,
the only one of its kind that he has
ever seen. He declared it to be of
inestimable value.
Fulton Beat Jules Verne
While common rumor has it that
the famed Jules Verne of fiction was
among the first to toy with the idea
of under-water craft, Fulton fully
developed plans and a working mode]
of a submarine to carry 24 men for
the English Government early in the
nineteenth century. His book on sub-
marine and torpedo researches is
one of the most valuable in the
whole collection in the library. Its
current market value is over $150.
The volume itself was probably a pri-
vately printed edition and is bound
in wall paper of the period.
Started in 1922
Material is constantly arriving for
this library which Professor Worley
started in 1922 and which he hopes
to enlarge to one of the research
centers of the world for engineering
literature. Two new Currier and Ives
prints recently arrived, one a deli-
cately colored picture of two side-
wheelers in a Mississippi race and
the other a prairie blaze. At present
the library contains more charts and
prints than actual bound volumes,
but all items are alike in one way
in that they are related to the en-
gineering profession.
