For the past four weeks force of work
men under the direction of Contractor Geo.
Lambert, assisted by Mr. Storm, an expert
from Philadelphia. have been engaged in
improving and remodeling the court room.
The principal feature of the improvement is
a steel ceiling, which when completed will
make the acoustic properties Of the room
very much better than heretofore.
Since the commencement of the work al
most every space IN the large room has been
taken up with scaffoldlng. The skeleton
frame work upon which the men stand ex-
tends from the front to the rear wall, and 1t
is strong and well built The new ceiling
will be about six feet lower than the original
one. 1t will be made entirely Of thin steel
underlaid with layer of gray waddins. The
new material is furnished by Messrs Thorn
& Company of Philadelphia, and the firm
has sent an expert workman to see that it
is put up in correct manner. The ceiling
arrived in sections some days ago and it is
being placed in position as fast as possible,
In order to have the work fully completed
by the August term OF court.
1t is thought that another month will be
required to finish the contract A small
change has been made in the room in the
shape of an apartment partltioned Oft from
the main chamber to the right of the Judges
bench A great improvement was made in
the room during the year 1890, but the pres.
ent rcmodeling is being done on much
more extensive scale -Nelcs

by Miss Blanche Hammett was intended as
evidence for the defendant. The case was
then open for discussion by the class or any
| Of the audience. Prof w. A. Garrison re.
sponded to personal appeal and gave some
| good thoughts on the subject; but when a
vote was called for only few seemed willing
