On the next floor is the general lecture room fitted up with chairs of a convenient form for taking notes. There are blinds at the windows, so that complete darkness can be obtained at any time, and electric lights which are within convenient control of the lecturer. At the experiment table as much as fifty horse power can be obtained at one time.
Prof. Blake's office across the hall from the lecture room is fitted up in an excellent manner. A telephone is at his desk, on the wall hangs an electric clock which regulates the hour bells throughout the University and just below it are placed the works which move the hands of the tower clock on the front of the building. In this room is a pretty electric fireplace.
The apparatus room contains some of the finest physical apparatus made. Prof. Michelson, who, by the way, is one of the most famous physicists in America, says that the physical apparatus here compares very favorably with, and in some lines surpasses the apparatus in the University of Chicago.
On this floor are also a research room especially fitted for spectroscopic investigation and a class room at present used by Prof. Penny.
As the presence of any considerable quantity of iron would affect the delicate magnetic instruments, the building is heated by a forced draft from an adjoining building, the air throughout being changed every fifteen minutes and the temperature being automatically regulated by electricity. The building is well equipped in the latest and best manner and we may reasonably expect a rapid growth in the Department of Physics and Electrical Engineerring.

AS YOU LIKE IT.
A rare opportunity for the students of the classical drawing to see.
Effie Ellsler, supported by a Shakspearian company of some twenty players will be at the opera house on Thursday night of next week, she appearing as Rosalind in "As You Like It," and Effie Ellsler is both well known and a great favorite with theatre goers and deserves her popularity.
