GRATlFlED With RESULTS
Enough Orders on File to Keep

Waldo III. Marshall, president OF the

pleased with plans for engagements
and improvements which Will ,ost
about 100000. While the steam shovel
department is to be transferred to
other branches. enough orders for
locomotives Will be sent to Richmond
TO keep the plant In full operation,
thus making UP for the deficiency
which might have been caused by
closing down the steam shovel de-
partment
Mr.. Marshall said there was no
reason to doubt that there would be
sufficient work at the Richmond branch
to keep II in full operation as far into
the future as it was possible for him
to see. every detail OF the work has
been carried on In a most satisfactory
manner" he said, and the orders re-
ceived here will be filled with all pos
slble dispatch. The newspapers have
already mentioned the big orders Sc
cured recently, and with the demand
for equipment we expect to get others
which will create q permanent demand
for high-class labor"

.STUDEN s LOSE
MUCH in FLAMES
Books and instruments Destroy
ed, One Mans Trunk
Being Burned.

Not the least among the losses grow
ing out of the destruction of the Uni
.versity College of Medicine were those
sustained by Individual students. Many
of them kept their books and other
equipment In the building. and all
these were lost In the flames.
Some of the advanced dental stu
dents had acquired by purchase from
time to time valuable sets OF instru-
ments. costing from 5000 to $500.
One student changed his boarding
place the day before the fire. He had
his trunk brought from the old board
ing place to the college, where he
wished to leave 1t n few days before
taking 1t to the new place. The fire
got It. and he has few collars and
one suit of clothes as the sole re-
minders of a sartorial glory that was
like unto Solomon's
"A good many lost only books. That.
at first thought. seems small loss.
but one of the misfortunes of profess
sional students is that they have to
pay high prices for their text books.
Students do not insure books and
instruments. for the possibility of loss
always seems remote, and SO q good
