new BUILDING ADDS
MUCH TO CATHOLIC
UNIVERSITIES SCOPE
Modern Engineering De-
partment One of Many Ad-
vance School Plans.

With its new building for the teach
ing of mechanical and electrical engi-
neerinG, costing 100000, and with decided
gains in its teaching forces, the Catholic
University of America expects to make
the greatest gains during the coming
scholastic year of any since It was
founded In 1889. Since the new building
Is equipped with all modern appliances,
II Is said to compare favorably with any
pecial attention will be given to the
scientific and engineering departments
this year.
The second floor of the newly con-
structed engineering building is largely
occupied by the lecture rooms and lab
oratories of the electrical engineering
department. The size of the electrical
apparatus is much larger than that OF
most schools, some of the apparatus es-
pecially worth mention being the two
twenty-K. w. compound-wound cleo
trio generators, 10 horsepower shunt-
wound motor, and ten-K. w. series
wound generator.
Opportunities Offered.
The department of mechanical engi-
neering offers young men who desire
instruction on this line an opportunity
to prepare themselves for practical ca
reers as mechanical engineers. An
elaborate central heating, lighting and
power station has been installed in the
new engineering building that adds to
the efficiency OF these departments.
With the mechanical and steam en-
cheering Laboratories are so arranged
as to be operated separately or as unit,
they are separate and distinct laboSator-
les, the mechanical and steam labora-
tory and the hydraulic laboratory No
effort will be spared by teachers and
officials in these departments to make
the courses practical.
Although II is the plan to lay much
stress on the engineering courses this
year, II Is promised that the other
courses will be kept up to their usual
standard, II they do not surpass II.
October 3 is the date of the opening
OF the fall term Of the Catholic Uni
versity of America this year. The uni
versity Is situated in Brooklnd, one OF
the prettiest of Washington's suburbs.
and one that seems constantly to >be
growing in popularity. The buildings
are located conveniently near the car
line. and it is only a short ride to the
city.

sity is greatly enhanced by its libra

instruction.

A corps Of teachers who teach for
the love Of their profession and be-
cause Of a real desire to keep high the
standards of medicine; laboratories al
ready large and complete yet being
made still larger; and a small body of
students are some Of the advantages
offered to prospective medical students
by the medical and dental schools of
Georgetown University.
Although not SO widely advertised as
most Of the medical schools in the
country this department of Georgetown
is called one of the best for either un-
dergraduate or postgraduate study.
The policy of the school is to keep Its
membership small, on the principle that
smaller classes with closer personal
contact between students and teacher
makes for more thorough and lasting
mastery Of the subjects covered.
Thoroughly practical instruction, too,
Us an important factor In the methods
of instruction announced by the school.
Throughout the entire course, lecture
and textbook are supplemented by
object lessons in the subjects covered.
The hospitals and Laboratories Of the
schools, as shown by reports. have IN
the past offered ample opportunities
for this practical instruction.
Added Facilities.
With the opening Of the new year these
facilities will be increased by the ad-
dition Of maternity and children's de-
partments in the hospital and provision
for a dental infrmary Of double the
size of the present quarters.
Operating room and autopsy room
clinics form the bulk of the work of
the last two years of the medical course
Of the school. The showing the hospital
and infirmary have made establish the
fact that into these sections come all
classes Of cases the student will en-
counter in general medical or surgical
practice. Besides the many opportuni-
ties to become acquainted with these
more common cases, the rarsr and
most serious pathogenic and surgical
conditions are brought to the institu-
ton with frequency unusual save in the
most noted hospitals Of the country.
Find Openings Readily.
The Georgetown medical school, in
vindication of the policy of personal
contact between student and instructor
and the prominence Of the clinic, shows
that none of its graduates has failed
to get a hospital appointment. Most
Of these appointments have come, as
the school announces, in competitive ex-
aminations in which graduates of the
most noted medical schools Of the coun-
try have been entered.
The teaching force Of the school is
largely recruited from among the best
practitioners, both in medicine and
surgery, and in dentistry. in Washing
ton and the surrounding section of
country These men serve for prac-
tically no compensation, save the part
they play in training competent ply
sicians in modern scientific professional
methods.
The new year that will begin early in
October promises to be most successful.
The applications for registration indi-
cate that the entering class will be one
of the largest in the history Of the
school. The additional equipment that
is under process of completion will be
ready for use in the early part Of the
school year.

According to Chauncey Depew, He Never Wrote Out His Oratons- Bunker Hill Address Composed
 While Trout Fishing.

Col Robert G. Ingersoll once mar rated to me the manner in which Dan iel Webster composed his great speech in reply to Hayne, and l re- ported that anecdote some time ago. The anecdote caught the eye of Sen ator Chauncey M. Depew, and was Of especial interest to him because Amer ican oratory and the methods of com position which American orators have study with him.
 T have no doubt" said Senator Depew, that Colonel Ingersoll was perfectly correct in stating that Dan- iel Webster made only a few notes of his intended reply to Hayne, so that he might be guided by them while de- livering his speech, but that otherwise he did not put word of his speech into writing for the reason that, as Webster said, he had been for more than thirty years studying the subject so that he was alwayr prepared to speak upon it.
 q am convinced that this was Web sters way in the preparation of all his great speeches; I do not believe that he ever wrote out line of his speeches. In that respect he was very different from William H. Seward and Roscoe Conkling, who bestowed in- finite care and patience in the prep aration of their speeches, writing out every line, weighing every word. Seward, through the mechanical or automatic action of his mind. imprint ed a speech upon his memory by the writing of it and the reading of it over Conkling was compelled to sub- init himself to the drudgery of learn ing speech by heart, for he had a very poor verbal memory.

Is 1t not strange that in this coun- try, where We have the largest aggre- gate of wealth that the word has ever known and wke-c wo have achieved the greatest success in hut man history along certain lines of en- deavor, that we have failed to keep pace with the march of progress, and that We are q century behind the rest of the world ia the matter of handling public roads?
 The conditions of the highways in American are great surprise to the foreign traveller, who has been used to smooth. hard roads throughout his land. Upon his arrival in New York he is overwhelmed by the immenslty of the buildings and the gigantic scale upon which everything is done A day or two in the metropolis prepares him to believe that Americans can do anything and accomplish anything, The resources of the country seem to be boundless. In this frame of mind he starts his journey westward. and from sthe railway window he can see roads that are practically bottomless and teams struggling through the mire that is nearly knee deep He is perfectly amazed that such conditions should obtain. He cannot understand why it should be so in a country that has such marvellous resources. The fact is that America is the only coun- try in the world that is rich enough to

incident that occurred during my two years cabinet service under Presi- dent Cleveland is associated with that Venezuelan message.
 The entire cabinet was in session. The president took some manuscript from drawer, saying that he desired to read something which he had writ ten, to the members of the cabinet. He then began reading what is now known as his Venezuela message. A majority of the members of the cab inet had no intimation that the pres ident purposed writing a message of that kind. l sat near William L.

We were surprised and we were not 6 little startled by the emphatic manner in which the presi- dent had sounded the note of warn ing.
 After the president had finished reading the message I presume every member of the cabinet expected that he would ask for the opinions of the cabinet respecting the expediency of sending such a message to congress. But MT. Cleveland did nothing of the kind. For some moments there was perfect silence, and there was no dis cussion of the message, for the presi-

Ancient Inkstands.

An inkstand that was probably in use three thousand four hundred-odd years ago is now exhibited in 4 Der lin museum. It Is of Egyptian make, and is supposed to belong to the eighteenth or nineteenth dynasty, or somewhere about 1900 B. C., although it's real age can be judged only ap- proximately. It Is made of wood, and has two compartments, an upper one provided with two holes, one for black and one for red ink, and lower one for holding reed pens. The black and the red ink are certainties; for so1e still remains, in dry condition, wlth- in the receptacles. Another ancient inkstand is supposed to have been in tended for the use of a schoolboy. It would certainly hold ink enough for a schoolboy's needs; for it has no fewer than four ink holes. Both inkstands were found at Thebes.
