...Museum itself. After the plaster for a mount is cast, minute holes are bored in it, where necessary, and then the model is secured in place by fine silver wire. All the fastening of the ends of wire is done at the back of the cast, and at a slight distance there is nothing to show how the model is attached to the plaster mount. On the other hand, on arrival from Germany, the models are secured by copper wire passed through large, carelessly made holes, to cardboard mounts, and the wire is then fastened at the front or back...
Work in repairing the upper portion of Trinity Hall, which was recently damaged by fire, will be commenced at once, and most of the rooms will be ready for occupancy on or before April 15.

Five stops will be placed between the floors to prevent a repetition of last...

Granting that the attempt on the pump was a malicious one, the removal is hardly a punishment to the perpetrators. It is only causing very great inconvenience to those rooming in the yard, and others...
Constant rehearsing of the Freshman Glee, Mandolin and Banjo Clubs has begun. As a whole the material is of good quality and the slight delay in organizing will not interfere with the success of the three concerts which will be given late in the spring. Of the clubs, the Glee Club is probably making the best progress, owing to the fact that six of the members of the club are singing with the University club. There are plenty of good men for the three upper parts, but there is a great lack of second basses, and more...
