The new electric lighting plant for which the legislatura has appropriated $20,000 will be located in a room in the new boiler house which was designed for that purpose when the building was constructed three years ago. As at present contemplated the specifications will provide for two 60 KiloWatts dynamo for lighting purposes and one 500-volt dynamos for power purposes. ïhis latter will displace three engines now in use in the laboratories. A small plant at the hospital will also be provided for and one of the engines displaced by electricity in the physical laboratory will be used to run it. The campus will be lighted with are lights and the buildings with incandescedt lamps. The new plant will be of inestimable valué to the instructors in the engineering courses. With the campus brilliantly lighted the opportunities for nest hiding within its generous shade will be perceptibly diminished.
