...large lecture room and by cabinets for lecture apparatus; next comes a smaller lecture room and the students' laboratory devoted to Physics 1. The western end is taken up by research rooms devoted to the study of thermo-magnetism and to the investigation of the extreme ultra violet part of the spectrum...
Professor Lyan's work with ultra-violet rays, and Professor Sabine's investigation of the transmission of sound, and its applications to building materials are among the many important researches going on. At present, there are more than a score of pieces of investigation in progress in the Jefferson Laboratory, with many more in the Cruft. Work so brilliant and of so advanced a nature merits the recognition and approbation of the University in general...

...simple linear quantitative relationship between the exact amount of radioactivity and the atomic weight was found. The ultra-violet spectrum of a typical specimen appeared to be exactly identical with that of ordinary lead. The necessary inference seems to be that lead from radioactive sources consists of a mixture of at least two substances, of which one is ordinary lead. The foreign substance must be very similar to ordinary lead and very difficult if not impossible to eliminate by chemical means; for many precautions were taken to purify the samples. This substance cannot be identified in the ultra-violet spectrum...
