Work on the repairs to the Rotch Building to fit it up for a mining laboratory has progressed very satisfactorily. On the floor of the old baseball cage concrete bases have been put in position for the stamp mill and Huntington mill.

Henshaw '90 and C. B. Wood '96. Although the season does not begin until April 28, it is probable that two practice games will be played before that date, one with a team of Harvard graduates and the other with a picked...
