In the life of Max Eschenhagen the world has a notable example of sterling ability winning its way through successive stages to a position of eminence and responsibility. He was born October 22, 1858, in Eisleben, and at the age of twenty‐two took the doctor's degree at Halle, working chiefly in mathematics and physics. For the next two years he was employed in teaching. In 1883 he was appointed to a position on the German Polar Commission, and began what proved to be his life‐work—the study of terrestrial magnetism.
