headquarters here through the summer.
Large subscriptions have been for
tablishing prOfessorships, but the uni

buildings before establishing professor
ships aud scholarships. This desire has
led to the offer by a wealthy gentleman,

used as an administration building.
1t is estimated that it will cost from
$500, 900 to $25O.OOO. It will be of stone
or marble. three stories high, about 250
feet long by 100 feet deep. The time for
breaking ground for this building has
not yet been set. but il is not likely to be
begun before spring.
1t will be frat used for a special pur-
pose, probably a school of history. and
while thus used, a second building will
be added Thus the whole group of
buildings viii be gradually developed
The observatory is to be located on the
highest point in the District of Column
bia, and is to have height equal to the
government observatory near by. Be
sides the offer to build the first building,
there have been two donations OF 100000
each, one by an Ohio gentleman and the
other by a New York lady, whose names
are withheld.
The preachers fund has also grown to
sos coo within recent DAYS. 1t was
started in New York, being restricted to
preachers and has been taken up all
over the country until the fund is ex-
pected to reach 100000 1t will be
used to build Asbury hall, named after
the first American bishop. The hall will
serve az religious museum. Mrs. John
A Logan, one of the trustees. has also
undertaken to raise a special fund, and
has set the figure at 100000.

A prominent railroad official said today
that last December a trip pass over a
we'll known Kansas railroad, which was
issued to Judge Foote on account of his
