        Triphammer Falls and Hydraulic Laboratory.
        Picturesque Tripphammer Falls in Fall Creekare located near the campus of the University; the heavy beating as of a mighty pulse gives the cataract it's name. At it's south side is the Hydraulic Laboratory, in Fall Creek Gorge, built in 1897 and with  walls of stone. The cost of the
        building and of the dam and canal used in conjunction with it was about $20,000, while the value of the equipment in the laboratory was about $30,000.
