...laboratory was founded for research work in physical and inorganic chemistry, which is Professor Richards' special line of investigation. The four specific divisions of his field are: bettering the present atomic weights, investigating the compressibility of atoms, heat of chemical reactions and electro-chemical research. All the fine apparatus now used will be transferred, and in addition many accurate and expensive pieces have been presented by the Carnegic institution at Washington which was established for the advancement of scientific research...
...important feature is the operation of the swell shutters by a form of electro-pneumatic engine perfected by Mr. Ernest M. Skinner, the builder. It affords an extraordinary command of the swell shades, giving no trace of sudden or erratic movement when the folds are opened. This swell engine is regarded by its inventor as the greatest single advance in the mechanism of the modern organ...
...action is electro-pneumatic, an extremely delicate one capable of developing great speed. Indeed, the mechanism of the finest grand piano is far slower and less responsive than that of this type of organ...
