Both The University and The Penal Institutes Will Profit by The Arrangement.
The state coal mine at Lansing will be a laboratory of the University of Kansas and in return the department of mining engineering of the University will take care of the engineering problems arising at the state mine, if the Board of Control of the penal institutions accept the invitation made recently by the Board of Regents of the University.
It is pointed out by the University Regents that its mining engineers can assist the mine by expert advice in matters of surveying, ventilation, haulage, hoisting, sanitation and methods of mining. The facilities of the University department for testing supplies such as lubricating oil can be made use of by the state mine. Even now the Lansing authorities are wrestling with the problem of transportation. The extent of the mine has become more chaotic by mules is too expensive. Expert advice to the use of equipment prejudiced advice as to the use of machinery and mining machines, is needed. Already scientific tests of the coal washing have been made at the University and it is proved that the establishment of a washery at the mine would greatly increase the calorific value of the coal.
The University would profit by such an arrangement in the possession of a laboratory, open for work at all times, in which mining problems, mine Surveys and methods could be studied without interference with either operators or laborers.
This is but another step in the policy of the University of Kansas to make its teaching and research work of direct value to the state.

BACK OF CONCRETE BEAM IS BROKEN
Two Weeks of Pounding Causes Reinforced Support to Sucumb
Night and day for two weeks, five senior civils, Houk, Humphrey, Stockwell, Wilson and Tucker have been fighting a concrete beam. But day before yesterday evening at seven, the beam which had held out as tenaciously began to weaken, and at seventh-thirty its back gave way.
During the two weeks a load of 5 tons was applied to the beam 150,500 times. This is probably greater than the number of maximum loads, which would be applied to a beam in 20 years of ordinary usage. The purpose of the test was to find how great a load could be applied to the beam an enormous number of times before rupture would occur. It is 5 tons.
A testing machine designed by Professors C. I. Corp and H. A. Rice was used to apply the load. It removed and replaced the load 22 times per minute. The machine worked admirably and gave some valuable data on concrete beams. The attachments to the machine were a deflection gauge, a revolution counter, and a vibrometer.
The beams are 12 feet long 8 inches wide and 10 inches deep to center of reinforcing. They are reinforced with three half-inch square
