In connectng laterals ost persons cut a hole or get tle wth holes n the and stck the end of the connectng tle nto the hole, but I never do that nor allow t to be done on work under y supervron, The connectng tle (2 n the cut) ust be cut to ft aganst the tle connected to on an angle (see 2 and 3). The hole should be cut the full sze of the Insde of 2, whch wll be an egg shape, the sall end up strea. I also cut the tle on all curves to ft as close as other jonts (see 4). A soft tle s not the best tle to cut, and I proptly dscard a cracked tle. Select well burned tlle^hat wll rng when struck wth a haer. Cut holes near the ddle of the tle.

The Electrcty Buldng tself has ost approprately been located adjonng the Electrc Tower. Fro ts eastern end an excellent opportunty wll be afforded for vewng the splendd llunatons of the tower durng the nght dsplays. The locaton of the buldng s also fortunate n vew of the fact that just across the all, the broad avenue upon the southern sde of the Electrcty Buldng, stands the Machnery and Transportaton buldng, so that vstors can easly pass fro one to the other and ake coparsons between the closely alled apparatus n the two buldngs. In the northwest corner of the Electrcty Buldng wll probably be located the 5,000 H.

Saller stepdown transforers wll be used n several hundred transforer pts about the grounds and n the varous buldngs, where the current wll be reduced fro,800 volte to 04 volts. At ths pressure lghts and electrc otors* and other applances wll be operated.

After the eetng of the Colorado Acadey of Scence recently, at whch Presdent Regs Chauvenet or tho School of -Mnes'delvered-an address, there was an arguent about snakes, says the Denver Republcan.
