found the conditions there about as
expected. There is fine court room
for holding the sessions, the only pos.
sible ground Of complaint being the
windows shaded by adjoining build
ings, but upon The audience end only
the court end being well lighted by
large windows entirely unobstrueted.
The room occupies the whole upper
story with the commodious gallery At
the end 1t has twelve large, high
windows.
County Clerk, Probate, and Jaller's
quarters ample and commodious. with
lull kitchen accommodations the only
complaint being that there was not n
good yard for hanging out the clothes,
and the kitchen roof so low that sum.
mef heat penetrated the room.
Now everything eenters upon the
Jail As ! entered remarked that the
atmosphere was too close. Upon look
ing around | found four large windows
upon two sides, one side being entirely
nnshaded, but all of them were closed
lightly. ! know OF no room that could
be better and more easily ventilated,
IL the occupants choose 10 do it, A
wide corridor completely surrounds the
cells, and Is well lighted aud we'll ven
uIated, il they choose 10 yentllale il by
merely letting down the high and
lengthy windows at the top.
The floor is low down. but If of
cement, as supposed, no moisture need
penetrate il. Woman's quarters unex-
cepiionable. in ease the partitioned quar-
ter Is wholly given up TO it, and kept
secluded In which case there is no
occasion Of ever locking the cell door
There were four prisoners, two OF
them being absent at work outside
Inquiry Of them developed the fact that
they had no complaint 10 make excel

tachment, Doubtless they were used to
bath room at home and missed il.
II there is anything about the sani.

Progress at Middlebury College

The new catalogue oil Middlebury
College, which is nov ready for distrl'
button, shows that rapid strides ahead
have been made under the administra.
ton of the new President, DIR. John NJ.
Thomas, who was inaugurated last
June. On opening the volume one
finds, instead OF the usual Terms OF
Admission which are much the same
IN all Colleges and dry reading at the
best, sprightly written "lntroduc.
ton" setting forth the beauties OF
Middlebury as College town and plans
for the expansion of the College. The
specially of Middlebary is declared to
be mot department of study, but a
type of student. The location OF the
College in frugal agricultural region
favors economy. For over century
she has sought ont the youth from the
quiet homes of northern New England
and surrounded them with encourage
ment TO modest living while engaged IN
the pursuit of knowledge" The new
Department Of Pedagogy. established
by the State by an annual appropria-
ton OF $1,000, will add several new
Professors to the Faculty. Students
intending TO teach will receive thorough
instruction in school administration
a, - saanhtn.x ItrInn tho
last two years of their College course.
A graduate course in Pedagogy is also
proposed. Perhaps the most radidal
departure for Middlebury is the new
scientific course, for which Latin is not
required for entrance. This course
will include the higher mathematics
through Descriptive Geometry and
Mechanical Drawing, including half
year in actual practice in surveying.
Three years of Chemistry will be offer
ed, two of Physics, and two in Biology
Graduates from this course. while re
eeiving a good general College train
ing, will be able to enter the Junior
year of the best technical Colleges with
out examination, and thus combine the
advantages of literary College and
the highest grade of engineering study.
A summer session, designed especially
for High School teachers, is also an
nounced, TO begin July q, 1909.
The number OF courses offered TO
students will be increased one-fourth.
The old three term plan is to be aban-
doned. and the semester, or half year,
system will be followed in the future.
The plan Of studies is made clear by
tables showing the work OF each semes
ter in each COURSE Clearness has been
gained also in the statement Of requir-
ments for admission. A larger mum
Der of subjects in the list of those
which may be presented for entrance
gives greater freedom TO the High
School student. Graduates OF English
courses in good High Schools or Aca
denies may now enter Mddlebury.
The catalogue shows an enrolment
OF ZIG, the largest number in the his
tory of the College. l37 come from
Vermont, 40 from New York, % from
Massachusetts, II from New Hamp-
shire, and IA from other states. Some
OF the buildings of Middlebury are
shown by illustrations, aud an exquisite
bit Of Vermont scenery forms the front
piece. The catalogue will be sent to
any address on application to.President
Thomas.
