FAVORABLE COMMITTEE RE-
PORT.

The committee appointed by the
legislature to visit the A. and NJ.
College, composed Of Representa-
tiyes Fountain, Green and Bryan,
has made a highly favorable report
with liberal recommendations. As
a matter Of interest to our readers,
the Eagle has summarized the lead
ing features Of the report which
opens with the statement that un.
der the present management the
College Is doing a grand industrial
work for the State, and in the opin-
ion Of the committee it is fulfilling
the designs Of its founders. It's
financial affairs have been admin
istered prudently and economically;
the work Of DR.. Francis in inocu-
lating fine cattle against Texas
fever is especially commended, he
being able to save % per cent of
the cattle SO treated; a more liberia
appropriation than that which l.
asked by the board Of directors l.
recommended for the repairs on
the original professors residences,
and three instead of two new resi-.
dences for professors are recon-
mended; repairs on Ross, Pfeuiler
and Mess halls are urged; the shop
space is declared inadequate for
practice; the student body is com.
plimented and the fare pronounced
good, solid and substantial: a new
chemical and veterinary laboratory
is recommended in strong terms,
and the space now devoted to these
departments is suggested for the
department Of mechanical draw.
ing; the drives and walks should
be grayeled or ballasted with
cinder.; the introduction Of hot
air heating arrangements for all
buildings is urged the addition Of
literary and scientific works to the
library is suggested, with an ap.
preparation of 5000 to properly
equip and provide books for the
library, which is now too small;
also suggested that those interested
in the College might appropriately
present books for the library; the
good health of the corps, with no
deaths, is iavorably commended
upon; provision for an armory il
requested to the end that the
United States government may be
induced 10 supply all the arms and
accoutrements necessary, and of
which there is now an insufficient
supply; the military discipline is
commended; a new electric light
and ice plant of greater capacity.
and with sufficient power to fur
nish hot air FOR the buildings, is
declared a necessity, and it is
recommended that the plant now
in use he transferred to Prairie
