THE POLYTECHNIC.

The Mechanical Department of the Rose Polytechnic Institnte.

The Courses of Instruction to Be Supplemented by Practical Work A Description of the Machinery,

Buildings and Appointments —The Formal Opening March 7.

Cor. Indianapolis Journal.

TERRE HAT-TE, Dec. 29.—The inaugural steps toward the formal opening of what promises to be one of the greatest educational institutions of the country took place here to-day. The Rose Polytechnic institute, for the first time, opened the doors of its mechanical department, so that the pub. lie could have an opportunity of seeing for themselves what has been done and would be done toward the establishment of a school for the education of young men in the practical sciences. It will be remembered that the institution was founded through the munificence of the late Chauncey Rose, who endowed it so liberally that it now has an annual income of $25,000. Buildings unsurpassed for architectural beauty and convenience have been erected, experience and distinguished educators employed, and for several years the board of trustees has been exhausting every resource for the purpose of placing the institution on an advanced basis before it should be opened for the reception of pupils. That time has almost arrived. Generally speaking, it was Mr. Rose's intention to establish an institution where young men could receive a liberal education, and be thoroughly fitted for the various mechanical trades and arts, So that at the conclusion of their course they could at once secure remunerative employment as skilled artisans. This idea has been elaborated and developed by the board, and the present instituion is the result. It is the intention to give the student, ^n a four years' course, a good, lilSral education, beside a thorough practical knowledge of the sciences, metallurgy, civil, topographic and mechanical engineering and general technological instruction, including drawing and the modern languages. To secure this result, a large and fully-equipped machine-shop has been provided, which will be conducted as a regular manufacturing establishment. All its products will be made for sale, and the crude labor of the students will be supplemented by that of skilled journeymen, whe will finish the work under the inspection and for the instruction of the pupils. There is but one other such school shop in the country—that of Worcester, Mass.—and it has been very successful. In all other schools devoted to the applied sciences, the socalled Russian system is employed that is, the pupils work but little in the shop, and then only in an experimental way. What is morft desired by the Rose institute is practical results, and to secure these the student will undergo a regular apprenticeship, supplemented by intelligent and scientific instruction. President Thompson, who is now abroad getting materials and plans for the institution, writes that now, even in Russia where it was founded, the Russian system, referred to above, is being abolished for the one employed here, the latter being infinitely superior. The managers of Rose Institute have aclearlv defined purpose in view. They intend"to offer to the patrons of the institute facilities for practical education unsurpassed by those of any other school of technology in the United States. They have ample means to do this, and, being gentlemen of intelligence and business ability, success is assured. The institution, when in operation, will not only be an honor and cridit to them, but to the city and state as well, for it is a new enterprise in educational matters, and deserving of the highest success. There are ample opportunities for "book learning throughout the country, but facilities for a thorough practical education in the mechanical arts are rare enough. To supply this deficiency the Rose Polytechnic Institute has been established, and the future is full of promise for it.

The mechanical department was inforunlly opened to the public to-day, and was visited by a great many people, who expressed the utmost satisfaction at the display made. A walk through it reveals at once the character of the institution and the course of instruction intended. It is no play house for boys to tinker about with tools, but an extensive manufactory, fitted out with the most approved machinery for iron and wood-work, and admirably adapted to the purposes intended. The main building is two stories in height, 163x41 feet in dimensions, with an 'attachment 120x40 feet, the whole being well lighted and ventilated- In the wood-work department there are 25 apprentice benches, each supplied with a full set of tools. The student is first to be thoroughly drilled in handwork, and, after he lias mastered that, his attention is devoted to the machinery, and with this he spends the remainder of the year. In this department there are thirteen wood-working machines of the latest pattern, including turning lathes, band and circular saws, planers, boring machines, etc. A patent double circular saw used here is a wonderful invention, as by it the operator can do various kinds of work. The student must do his own work, receiving, of course, instructions whenever it is necessary. After he has become somewhat proficient in the use of machinery, his time is employed in making useful and .salable articles, such as are made in other manufactories. The proceeds from the sale of these go toward the maintenance of the institution. The next year the pupil is p«t to work in the iron department, where he receives practical instruction in drilling, boring, planing, tempering, etc. In this department the machinery consists of two drill presses, three' planers, a boring machine, a planing machine, a slotting machine, and a number of lathes. All these are supplied with standard gauges and tools by which the students do their work. Incidental to this is the drawing room, where the boys receive instruction in mechanical drawing, and each one will be required to make full set of working drawings of some machine from which, at any time, machines mav be built. In" the wing of lie building are the rooms allotted to '*he foundry and blacksmith shop. The power is supplied by a 25-horse power, four-valve, automatic cut-off engine of the Brown manufactory, which is a uiWel of its kind, and almost noiseless

in its operation. All the machinery referred to above is new and of the most approved pattern, it being the Intention to afford the students the best possible facilities for work. It must not he understood that the school is for the purpose of making voung men merely proficient in the use of machinery. This is far from the intention of the trustees. It is regular institution of learning, where the modern languages, literature and mathematics are taught, together with the most comprehensive instruction ir the applied sciences. Particular at tention will be paid to chemistry, physics, drawing and engineering, but all of these are a part of the general system. It is intended to give the student a thorough knowledge of the mechanical arts by a course of scientific instruction, supplemented by practical '•work in a manufacturing shop, and no other institution in the country, with the exception of that at Worcester, does this. While the young man is receiving a good general education, he is at the same time becoming skilled in the use of tools and machinery, and when he receives his dij loma he will also be excellently prepared for almost any mechanical pursuit. There are five distinct courses in which he may be educated, that being chosen that is in ac cordance with his taste and capabili ties. By some thoughtless persons the trustees have been blamed for not opening the institution before, lint the wisdom of the course they pursued was apparent to-day, when the citizens of Terre Haute visited the institution and found in full operation a regular manufactory, supplied with every necessary accessory, where young men could get—whatis so much needed—a practical education. The managers have received many congratulations on the results already attained and the citizens have shown a disposition to encourage the institution in every way possible. AVhen its objects and methods of instruction are thoroughly understood throughout the countrv, there is little doubt that itwill receive that substantial patronage it so well merits.

The institution will be lormallv opened for a preliminary half-year work, March 7, when a class in mechanical engineering, not exceeding twenty-five in number, will be insured. The following gentlemen compose the faculty so far as appointed:

Charles O. Thompson, A. M., Ph. D., late principal of the Free Institute of Technology, Worcester, Mass., presi-

Charles A. Colton, 15. I®, Ph. D., late assistant professor of mineralogy in the school of mines of Columbia college, New York, professor of chemistrv and mineralogy.

Edward Barnes, Ph. D„ professor of the higher mathematics. Clarence A. Waldo, A. M., late assistant professor of mathematics in Wesleyan University, Middletown, Conn., professor of elementary mathematics and librarian.

Edward S. Cobb, B. S., superintendent of machine shop. William L. Ames, B. S., instructor drawing.

President Thompson is now in Europe in the interest of the institution. Mr. Cobb, the superintendent of the machine shops, is an accomplished engineer and instructor, being a graduate of the W orcester institution. The board of managers is composed of the following well-known gentlemen: Josephus Collett, president Charles, R. Peddle, vice-president Samuel S. Early, Secretary Demas Deming, treasurer Firmin Nippert, Charles Cruft, William A. Jones, William Mack, Robert S. Cox and Preston Hussev. These gentlemen have displayed" marked fifiancial wisdom in the management of the Rose bequest, and have been untiring in their efforts to build up an institution that should be an honor to the founders and to the state. To Mr. Early, the secretary, particular credit is due, for the most of the work has been done by him, and the results tints far attained are indicative of his'shrewdness and intelligence.

A GREAT RAlIROAT SCHEME.

Tlie Iuriiaiiapolis & St. I.ouis to Unite with tlio Niclcel l'late and C., C., C. & T. in a Great Trunk I.jne,

Last July, previous to the sale of the Indianapolis & St. Louis road, the Express railroad column prophecied, in an interview with a leading railroad official .of this city, that the Nickel Plate owners were figuring for the property as a part of a great trunk line that if the purchase was not made directly, the Nickel Plate influence would be iound backing the ostensible purchasers. It seems that this prophecy is about to be fulfilled, The Post-Express, the leading evening paper of Buffalo, N. Y., on Saturday announced that on the 5th or 7th of the present month the consumation of a gigantic railroad scheme will take place. The secret of the purchase of the "Nickel Plate" line will be out then, and the question that has been so. often asked by those who believed that it was bought in Mr. Vanderbilt's interest, "What is he going to do with it?" will be answered. The day above mentioned will mark the consolidation of the Indianapolis & St. Louis, the Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati & Indianapolis, the "Nickel-Plate" and the Central Hudson Railroads into one great system, creating a great rival and opposition line to the Wabash system and the Pennsylvania Central, opening a short and direct route to Cincinnati and St. Louis. By reference to a map it will be seen that the lines above mentioned will form a straight route almost from Cleveland to St. Louis, and eastern railroad men think that the Wabash and Pennsylvania Central svstems will meet it in the crowning triumph of the Vaiulerbilts. That some great movement has for some months been contemplated on the railroad chess-board has been apparent to keen observers, and this is what it is. So far there has been no checkmate, and the details are all now so perfectly and so firmly arranged that there will be no interruption or delay.

I. & St. Li. Depot Policeman. I. F. Jones, I St. L. agent here, has notified the police authorities that his company no longer desires the services of an officer at the Sixth street depot. The order has gone out to cut down expenses, and to do away with the officer. The night baggagemarwuvill probably be sworn in as a special policeman. The ollicer on duty there for some time past,. Isaac Calvert, was appointed as a member of the regular force. John Good paster, who first acted as I. & St. L. policeman, was taken off the regular force for this duty.

How Ahout the Doses.

Many people before purchasing a medicine naturally inquire the size of the dose and the strength of it.
