A. and M. School Of Engineering.

The school of engineering-one
OF the three main divisions of the
Agricultural and Mechanical Col
lege at Starkville--is an instrument
OF increasing power in the State and
a great factor in developing the skill
and intelligence of our boys. 1t
gives to the young men that train
ing and preparation which fits them
to take their places in the great in
dustrial army, and to plan and do
work that is necessary to develop the
resources and increase the wealth
and prosperity of the country.
The school of engineering en-
braces the departments of mathe-
MATES, mechanical engineering,
physics and electrical engineering,
civil and rural engineering, geology
and mining engineering, and offers
In each of the four great divisions
of engineering-mechanical, electri-
cal, civil and mining-a thorough
course Of instruction. theoretical and
practical, in the scientific principles
and an introduction into the prac-
tice of the profession. The work in
the different departments is being
most carefully studied and systemat-
ically planned by the engineering
faculty. The studies are so ar
ranged that each student carries on
the work of two engineering depart
ments in the junior and senior years,
and all engineering students have
identically the same work in the
freshman and sophomore years. The
method of instruction is by svs-
tematic lectures and the study of
suitable textbooks. Closely asso-
ciated with the theoretical instruc-
ton is a regular amount of practi-
cal exercises in the drawing room,
the field, and the laboratories and
shops attached to the different de-
partments. All engineering stu
dents receive the same instruction in
English, mathematics, chemistry,
civics and history, biology, and Mil
itary science and tactics. The work
is so planned and arranged that ev-
cry student in the college is reached
by some phase of it. Besides the
regular four years course, there is
also a two years practical course in
mechanical engineering and electri-
cal engineering.
The organization and working
force is as follows: B. NJ. Walker,
director and professor of mathemat-
les; J. W. Fox, professor of civil
and rural engineering; Albert
Barnes, professor of mechanical en-
cheering; c. E. Ard, professor of
physics and electrical engineering;
W. n. Logan, professor of geology
and mining engineering; Charles
Hancock, instructor in mechanical
and engineering drawing; R. G.
Carpenter, instructor in forge and
foundry, and superintendent of pow
er; T. NJ. Spinks, instructor in ma
chine shop; j. E. McKell, instruct
or in wood shop; W. W. Freeman,

Eight inches of water descended
to earth from the heavens above
us during the brief space of about
SIX hours Monday afternoon and
evening. Ii started to rain about
four o'clock in the afternoon and
by six o'clock the streets were
veritable rivers. Later in the
evening the rain descended even
more vigorously than during the
afternoon, and La Junta merchants
patrolled the streets all night long
in the vain endeavor TO keep the
flood waters out of their places OF
business. Granada street from the
postoffice to the court house was
one sheet Of water, also Colorado
avenue, and navigation was impos-
sible save with rubber boots.
There was about eighteen inches
of water in the cellar of the new
SImonton block, but no serious
damage resulted. Fortunately
there was no serious damage done
anywhere in town, Notwithstanding

get that which is desired is to work
