The drilling on one of the boiler fronts has been completed and the new furnaces will be put in place as soon as some preliminary work on the iron work can be done. The emery wheel has been put in running order and makes a very useful addition to the tool grinders. Shop work has been interfered with to some extent for the past month owing to the lack of coal, the hauling being extremely slow over the almost impassable streets. The marble slabs on which the instruments and switches used in connection with the dynamos will be mounted are being put in place. Mr. Battey has made a very handsome set of chisels that are not only excellent specimens of good forging but also of artistic tempering the straw and pigeon blue colors being brought on the polished steel surfaces to very good effect. It is probably the general opinion that the shops are amply equipped but such can hardly be said to be the case. The machines are hardly idle a minute during the afternoon and when any accident occurs which cripples one of them the number of students that can be accommodated is cut down. Moreover, for want of equipment there arises more or less confusion and more accidents, for this reason the machinery is suffering more or less injury from need of repairs which those in charge find no time to make.
