Pushing Things at Purdue.

An order for SIO,OOO worth of machinery for the fitting up of the improvised Purdue shops has been sent east, and in a very few days nearly all of the departments will be running. A new building 20x50 feet has already been erected, and other temporary shops are to be built at ODce. There is nothing slow about Purdue, the President and the faculty. Six hours after the big fire they were all deep in the work of taking a fresh start, and there will be no halt now until the shops are rebuilt, finer and more complete than ever.—Lafayette Courier.
