peace, official Mexico sees no way to
avoid the conflict at Juarez.
Still! refusing 10 treat with the reb-

"ultimatum' issued by Francisco I.
Madero, Jr., that Diaz resign the Pres
idency.
0ptimists continue to believe that
the promised battle may vet be avoided
but the number of optimists in Mex
leo continues to grow smaller each day
and tonight residents of the capital
have new cause for apprehension.
Two days ago a controversy arose at
the agricultural school between the stu
dents and the director. \ small detach-
ment of soldiers WAS sent to the institu-
ton to pres rye order. The incident ap-
peared closed when the students OF the
school of medicine came forward with
grievances last night. After having re-
eeived promises of support from Puebla
schools today. the Student question"
assumed a political character.
AT mass meeting tonight the students
decided to join the Peaceful wing" of
The revolution and ask President Diaz TO

DR.. NJ CORMACK
ARRIVED TO-DAY

The medical fraternity is looking
forward to important results from the
visit of Or. j. n. Mccormack to this
city. The distinguished speaker, who
arrived by the Mongolia this morning
comes here solely as a representative
of the American Medical Association
the greatest organization of medical
men i'm the world. He is secretary of
the Kentucky Medical Society, and is
travelling lecturer for the national or
ganization, his expenses being sus.
tanned by this body.
President Pratt, of the Board of
Health, met Dr. Mccormack two years
ago during his trip to the mainland,
and at that time secured a promise
from him to visit Hawaii which prom
Use is now being fulfilled.
Texas paper has the following to
say of DR.. McCormack's work:
1T would appear from the press of
the state that a great deal of good has
recently been accomplished by the
tour of Dr. J. n. Mccormack, of Bowl.
ing Green, KY DR.. Mccormack deliv-
cred in a number of cities and towns
of Texas a lecture entitled, Things
About Doctors and Health Which Ev.
erybody Ought to Know. His talk
was exceedingly interesting and prac-
teal, a clear exposition of the prob.
lens of community health and their
solution. He seems to recognize the
fact that the first thing to be done is
to enlighten the people on the prob.
lens of health; he seems to know
that the battle is against entrenched
ignorance. 1t is gratifying that he
was accorded courteous hearings by
large audiences almost everywhere he
appeared"
Dr. Mccormack will be the guest of
the Hawaiian Medical Association at
a luncheon tomorrow afternoon, and
on Wednesday evening he will deliver
a popular lecture at the Opera House
which will be of interest to all who
believe in the principle that preven.
ton is better than cure.

OUR FRISCO LETTER
Continued from page one.)

things accomplished. Whereupon an
other man produced pamphlet Of
some ten or twelve pages, containing
the first speech made by Mccarthy
when he took office, in which he out
lined his policy and told of the re-
forms he would institute. The CON
trast between the two papers brought
down the house.
These incidents are perhaps the
most Illuminating parts of the pres
ent campaign. Cleverer men than
McCarthy's helpers are lined up with
Rolph, men who can play the game
of ridicule as well as present facts,
and McCarthy's inconsistent course
during his time in office is shown up
on every possible occasion before the
working men.
There is no denying the fact that
Mccarthy is putting Up clever cam
paign the kind one might expect of
Tammany Hall, but many organiza.
lions which favored him in the last
election are either against him now
or have refused to indorse either can
didate, leaving the members free TO
vote for whom they pIease-which is
a better sign for Rolph than it is for
Mccarthy.
Early in the campaign it was openly
limited that Mccarthy would make
every effort to steal the primaries,
but it is doubtful if he can do this.
One of the best indications of the
sentiment of the town is indicated by
the odds offered by hard-headed gam
blers, who allow sentiment to play no
part in their calculations, and who
are betting heavily on Rolph in spite
of their political affiliations. Where it
was presumed that Mccarthy would
poll a particularly strong vote at the
primaries, it is now 1O-to-7 bet that
Rolph will win at that time.
Irrespective of who wing, men hope
that the battle can be settled at the
primaries, which will make it unnec-
essary for the political fight to CON
tinue another six weeks to the regular
election. The city is anxious to set.
tie down to the years of prosperity
which are pretty certain to come dur

The most extensive war game ever

SAVED By 4 SONG.
When santlsy and His Party Faced
Death In Mexico.

When santIey and His Party Faced
Death In Mexico.
Few people are aware that on one
occasion a timely song saved Sir
Charles Sankey's life. The famous
baritone was one Of a party travelling
under military escort through bandit
infested region in Mexico when tue
guards suddenly bo!ted. leaving the
travellers to the mercy Of band OF
booty hunters. These desperadoes' nno-
ing the spoil less valuable than they
expected. decided to slay their cap'ives
and fare forth on another foray.
An inspiration came to Santley. Sur
rounded by friends and foes. he COM
menced IN aria and sang in his own
inimitahle way. As the notes ripped
forth on the clear mountain air the
bandits faces lighted up with pleasure.
and ut the finish the leader expressed
his delight and asked the senior 10 sing
again.
Santley saw his chance and seized II.
He inquired if he might sing for the
liberty OF the little party. and reiue'
tant consent was given. For severai
hours during that never to he forgot
ten night he enthralled his captors
with generous program OF exquisite
melodies The next day the bandit1
rendered payment by taking the wh>
party down the mountain side aud setl
ting them free Notwithstanding latef
triumphs Sir Charles Santley never sur
passed that one.-London Graphic.

BOSTON HARBOR FROZE.
But That Didn't Keep the Britannia
From Sailing on Time.

But That Didn't Keep tho Britannia
From Sailing on Time.
Boston harbor froze over in January
Of 1S44, and the advertised sailing OF
the Britannia. then in dock. seemed
surely to be impossible. But the mer-
chants Of Boston would not have 1t so.
They met and voted to cut a way, at
their own expense. through the ice.
that the steamer might sail practically
on time.
The contract for cutting the neces-
sary channels was given to merchants
engaged. like Frederick Tudor. in the
export Of ice, but not ice cut from the
harbor. Their task was to cut within
the space Of three days a channel about
ten miles long. For tools they had the
best machinery used in cutting fresh
water ice. and horsepower was EN-
ployed. The ice was from six to twelve
inches In thickness.
As the Advertiser Of Feb. 2, 1914. de-
scribed the scene: "a great many per
sons have been attracted to our wharfs
to witness the operations and the curl
Gus spectacle Of the whole harbor fro
ZEN over. and the Ice has been covered
by skaters, sleds and even sleighs
Tents and booths were erected upon
the ice, and some parts of the harbor
bore the appearance Of Russian holi
day scene"
On Feb. 3 the work was done. and
the Britannia. steaming slowly through
the lane Of open water. lined on eithei
side by thousands Of cheering specta
tors. made her way to the sea.
