In this issue we publish the few facts known about Mnesicles, Kallikrates and Andronicus. Next in order comes Mnesicles, whose name the Minnesota men chose for their chapter. According to Plutarch, and other writers, he was the principal architect of the great Propylrea, or entrances, of the Acropolis at Athens. This famous structure was begun under Pericles about 440 B. C. and was completed in about five years. Minerva Favored Mnesicles Plutarch, in his Life of Pericles, relates an incident which occurred during the course of building which showed, he naively states, that the goddess Minerva was favorable to the work of Mnesicles. One of the workmen, the best and quickest of them all, slipped and fell from a great height and lay in a miserable condition, These sketches, written by Jos. J.
