The Engineeering Building is being
fitted with new sky lights over the
Steam Engine Lab. The new glass
is but 3-8 inch thick, and unlike the
old, is not to be walked upon. A
screen is being put over it to guard
against accident.
The young people of the College
community, most of them children of
members of the Faculty, gave a per
formance of the play “Prince
Charming’s Fate ” at the home of
Prof, and Mrs. J. Price Jackson on
Saturday evening last. The pro
ceeds were for the benefit of the
Bellefonte Hospital. The affcirwas
arranged by Mrs. Louis E. Reber.
When the electric power was shut
off on Saturday night, the air-purr. p
at the Calorimeter stopped, and for
sixteen minutes the steer inside was
without air. The men in charge
were just about to open the door,
when power was again turned on.
Had the pump failed to work for
five minutes more, the experiment
would have been spoiled by the death
of the steer.

Cavalry Maneuvres
The annual mid-winter maneuvres
of the State College cavalry are be
ing held this week, chiefly in the
Armory. For dexterity in manage
ing their dangerous steeds, even the
famous Cossacks of the Russian
Army are-not to be compared with
our own small (?) band. Up to
the time of writing, no accidents
have been reported, although, as in
previous'years, a few riders will
probably be dismounted before the
the week is ended. At this time of
the year, these exhibitions have no
connection with the military depart
ment, and no effort is made by
horsemen to display their proficiency
before the general public
