NEW BUILDINGS.

As a result of alterations and additions made during the past summer, the University properties are now much improved and extended. The Phillips Brooks House is completed and ready for occupancy. Randall Hall will be opened today, and Stillman Hall, the proposed infirmary for sick and injured students is to be opened early next spring.

Inside the Newell Gate on Soldiers Field the athletic committee is erecting a two-story lodge of brick and stone, which is to contain a reception room and the living quarters for a gate-keeper. Skirting the field along North Harvard street is a new brick and stone fence which has at its north termination the Newell Gate. The gate is not yet finished, but it will probably be completed by the time of the Yale game. Northwest of the new lodge is a five-acre track of land for athletics, which has been acquired by filling in the marsh lands. On the southern bank of the river is the piling for the new boat house which is to be two stories high and is to cover 10,000 square feet. On the first floor will be the offices and the racks for the shells, and on the second floor will be the trophy room, the dressing rooms and the shower baths. The cost of the building will be about $25,000 which sum has been raised by the alumni of New York.

The Phillips Brooks House at the north-west corner of the Yard is to be used by the University's various religious and philanthropic societies. The Y. M. C. A., Catholic Club, and the St. Paul's Society will have rooms on the second floor, while the Student Volunteer Society will be on the first floor. Holden Chapel, which has been vacated by the Y. M. C. A., is being fitted up as a general head quarters for the College musical organizations.

The Bursar's offices have been removed to the north wing of Dane Hall, and the lower floor of Wadsworth House is being remodeled into student's rooms. The greater part of Dane Hall is still occupied by the Co-operative Society, which has enlarged and re-furnished its quarters and increased its stock. The basement rooms have been renovated and are being utilized as sales-rooms, while the general arrangement of the first floor is much better than it was last year.

Randall Hall will open for the College year at noon today. The dinning room, which is ninety-one by sixty-six feet, is well furnished and contains forty-four tables, each capable of seating twelve persons. Meals will be served at a rate of three dollars a week, or upon the European plan.
