Yale's New Gymnasium.

The ground for the new gymnasium at Yale has been purchased and work will be soon begun on the building. The ground bought has a frontage on Elm street of 138 feet by 2.36 feet deep, and cost about $30.000. The sum of the subscriptions up to date is $130,000. which leaves $100,000 for the building. More than this will, however, be probably spent, as the building, as designed, will cost about $150,000, but it is thought the deficiency can be made up by next fall. The building will be three stories in height, with a high studded basement. Particular attention is to be paid to the sanitary arrangement, the idea being to have the building the most perfect of its kind in America. The outside will probably be stone, though unless sufficient money is raised, the committee will have to content themselves with brick.
