An observatory is being built for the University of Pennsylvania. The new building will be built of brick surmounted by a large steel dome. The telescope placed in a large circular room, will be an eighteen inch equatorial, built on the same general plan as the Lick instrument. It will be moved by electricity and so adjusted that it can be shifted by the slightest touch of the finger.

Professor Doolittle, formerly of Lehigh University will conduct the course in astronomy, and will be the acting head of the Mathematics department.
