IMPROVEMENTS AND PURCHAsKs.
Besides the expenditure during the
year by the Regents of about $1,000,
raised by voluntary contributions by the
citizens of Seattle, in necessary repairs
and improvements of the University
buildings and grounds. the Faculty and
students, by series of lectures, must
cal and literary entertainments, have
raised the necessary funds with which
they have purchased and placed in the
University fine Weber piano, an excel
lent Estey Chapel organ and two hun
dred dollars worth of Philosophical ap-
paratus.
Seattle, the seat of the Territorial
University, is beautifully located on the
eastern shore of Puget Sound, midway
between the Straits of Fuca and the
head Of the Sound. 1t has population
of 5000, is rapidly increasing both in
numbers and wealth, il brimful of life
and enterprise, and without doubt has
bright and promising future.
The buildings, consisting of the Uni
versity, the boarding department and
Presidents house, all occupy a CON-
manding commence in the central part
of the city, in the midst of q beautiful
campus embracing ten acres of land
adorned with evergreens and other va
rieties of native trees.
The natural scenery Of land and
water, towering mountain ranges and
Handicapped peaks, with foreground Of
busy streets, smoking furnaces and the
white-winRed messengers of commerce,
as viewed from the University, Is OF rare
beauty and grandeur. Cold spring
water, conveyed in pipes from the hill
side beyond, supplies all the buildings.
No healthier nor more charming loca-
ton for a school is to be found any
where.
Seattle, centrally located in the Puget
Sound basin, is connected with all the
principal towns and cities of western
Washington, and with the chief cities of
British Columbia by daily lines of
steamers, and in few weeks will be in
direct communication with Oregon, the
eastern division Of the Territory and
New York city.
So saluhrious, mild, even and invigor-
ating is the climate that health seekers
have already learned something of its
virtues, and during the warm months
many make it a recuperative resort.
