DR.. Slagle of the School of Mines
informs us we were misinformed re-

School. The Doctor says there has
always been plenty of coal on hand,
No one had ever in minated to us that
the School did not provide amply FOR
cold spells, but itappears during the
last cold spell the supply for one of
our heaters had evidently been mis-
laid. hence the statement of the stud
ent to the effect that enough coal
wat not provided. We are very glad
to know the School has man at its
head, who will not allow even very
small complaint to go withoutinves-
tigation and we are also very glad to
set himself and his School right ia
this matter.
