LONDON. Sept. "A dread myster- ious something" just now is killing Loudon's babies by the score.
 Last week 15S babies died in Lon don compared with 56 the previous week-a treble deahtrate.
 The heat and the dust seem to be the main contrlbutory causes of this great rise in infant mortality
 Recently at an inquest at st. Lukes Dr. w Wynn Wescott. the coroner. in speaking Of the increasing number of deaths of infants from diarrhoea and sickness, said that they were ali more or less a mystery.
 They could not be due, he said, to bad food or heat exhaustion Ap- parently the disease is due to some. thing mysterious in the air, to some thing which is carried about by flies.

United States marshal. He was re-
leased on $4,000 bond to appear at

DR.. Swank was one of the witnesses
for the defense in the recent suit Of
the government against A. F. Leviatt
charged with bringing glandered
horses into North and South Dakota
from Montana.
1t is alleged by the government that
he testified to certain things falsely
and the warrant and arrest followed.

WHITMAN COLLEGE
WINS COED DEBATE
First Coed Debate in Inland Empire
Attracts Large Crowd to College
Auditorium.

The first coed debate between the
teams of w. S. c. and Whitman col
lege drew a large crowd at the col
lege auditorium Tuesday evening
Mrs. John Mathews presided and w.
w. Tolman, c. G. Hill, of Spokane,
and VIM. Goodyear acted as judges
The question was Resolved, That
Women Should Receive the Same
Wages as Men for the Same Work
Performed"
Whitman had the affirm ative and
w. S. c. the negative and both sides
presented some cogent arguments in
a clear and forceful manner, despite
the fact that the time for preparation
had been very short, and that the
subject was a new one. From start
to finish the debate was interesting
and instructive and the evenness of
the two teams is indicated by the
fact that the verdict of the judges
was not unanimous, two deciding in
favor of the Affirmative and one for
the negative.
During the evening several selec-
tions were rendered by the college
orchestra and after the debate a very
pleasant reception was rendered the
visiting debaters at Stevens hall.
w. S. C. was represented by Miss
Nellie Belfre Miss Cora White, Miss
Ester Bull; rebuttal' Miss Belfre;
and Whitman by Miss Helen Walter
Miss Alice Lilliequest, Miss Alice Nc
MILAN, rebuttal Miss Walter.

SIDEWALK ORDINANCE IS
KILLED BY COUNCIL
City Council Deals Death Blow to
Proposed Ordinance Requiring
Property Owners to Construct
Concrete Sidewalks.

The ordinance requiring that side
walks within the corporate limits of
the city of Pullman be constructed
of concrete was put out of business
by the city dads at their last regular
session when the much mooted ordi-
nance was read the third time and
laid on the table Indefinitely, which
means that it probably will not be
again considered. The councilmen
contend that the proper manner to
provide for the installation of these
sidewalks is for the property owners
to petition the council to have i'm
proyement districts created in differ
Iernt parts of the city.
A petition signed by nearly all the
property owners of Military hill ask
ing that a sewer be laid in that dis
trict was read. The petition was re-
ferred to the sanitation and sewer
committee with power to employ an
engineer to locate route for the
sewer, the committee to report at the
next meeting.
A petition signed by w. f. NJ.
Ricketts, and others asking for the
vacation of 30 feet of lot /, blk "A,
near the site of the old opera house
was presented, read and granted
The hearing on same was set for May
4th.
Bids for laying the sewer in dis
trict No. 9 West Main street, were
opened and again rejected. The low
est bid was that of w. A Moss, who
offered to do the work for so cents
per lineal foot, charging $27 for each
manhole. His first bid, which was
rejected two weeks previous. was for
50 cents a foot and $2S for man
holes. The sewer will be construc-
ted under the supervision of the city
council, that body to employ day la
Dor to complete the improvements
Several ordinances of minor con-
sequence were read, also an ordi-
nance providing for changing the
names of several streets on College
hill. According to the terms Of the
ordinance, A and B streets will be
known as Ohio and Idaho streets, re-
spectively; part of Monroe street
will be known as Colorado street,
and Short street will be changed to
Monroe street, making Monroe and
Colorado continuous streets.
The council voted to employ a
team to do the city sprinkling and
team work at 500 a month.
