Wihch now In turn has gained control of 'he Seaooard Air Line system-altogether comprising some 1S,0OO miles of line. or nearly one-tenth of the total mileage of the country. And the attainment of this vast power has been the work of less than halt dozen years, with a begin hihs m the possession of wealth not large enough to attract anybodys atten- uoh' The Moore brothers won their money out of the steel combinations. and they nave made it go uncommonIv far through the employment of various de- vices for minority control in building themselves up as one of the three or Tour dominating groups in the transpor- tation industry.
 Their rise Is one of the vvopdars of tho recent boom period. Railroad mileage in the Southern States is now almost en trely grouped under the Morgan and the Moore lnterest-the former dominating the Southern Railway system and the Atlantic Coast Line. which controls the Louisville and Nashville and the Plant systems, while the Moore interest snreads over about all of the remaining mileage. As to the present union of the Seaboard Ar Line and Frisco systems under a common control, their natural relation snip seems small. One of them makes up network of lines on the South At lantic seaboard. The other spreads out over territory almost entirely west of the Mississippi But one chances to have a prong extended westward to Birming- ham. Ala. and the other a prong extend- ing out from the main body eastward to the same place. By the union a new trunk line will be- established from the Southwest to tidewater at Norfolk.

jects are received by the library annu- ally. and there are complete sets of the chief literary and scientific periodicais There are now in the library over 17.200 bound volumes. besides a large number of bulletins and pamphlets filed for ready reference. This collection of books has been made almost entirely since the main college building was destroyed by fire Tn lSS1. The following broad classlfica- uons will give an idea of the scope of the library: Technical and scientific sec- tions 5000 volumes; general (history biography philosophy. travel, classics, linguistics), 5000; government publica- tions, 3,200. Quite noteworthy are the sections of biology. chemistry, agricul- ture, botany, pharmacy. civil, electrical and mechanical engineering, and veterina- ry science. In the physical sciences everything is thoroughly modern, and ex- ceptional opportunities are offered for comprehensive reading. There are now about 1900 volumes in the historical sec tion This material Is very complete particularly on the period immediately preceding the Civil War. The sections of biography, poetry, essays and travel are also full and good, and there are select editions of all the standard authors.

Lectures and recitations in industrial chemistry, organic chemistry, metallurgy and a course of systematic laboratory work are included in this branch of Instruction Excursions to the various chemical and metanurgtcal plants during the course of the year aid in familarizing the students with the practical details of the opera tions of the leading industries.

In order for student to become a successful min ing engineer 1t is held that he should
