campus is to be remodelled and eX-
tended. AT the present time both
the gymnasium and the engineering
building are heated by Independent
plants, necessitating a needless ex-
penditure for extra operating forces
and for extra fuel. Under the present
system janitor is employed at the
gymnasium and another at the en-
gineering building to operate the heat
ing plants in those buildings. The
heat will hereafter be supplied from
the central plant and one man will
be able to handle the same work that
three have been doing. Not only will
there be a great saving in labor but
the cost of coal will be greatly lessen
ed
The old steam pipe from the central
heating plant will be removed and
new ones laid in cement tunnel The
tunnel will be approximately six feet
high by five feet in width For long
distance the top of the tunnel will
serve as a sidewalk thus saving an
other expenditure. The tunnel will al
so carry all of the electric wiring
for the entire campus. In the matter
of repairs alone the new system will
pay for itself within a very few years.
1t was only recently that an expense
of several hundred dollars was incur
red in repairing a stretch of the old
pipe line. The same pipe could be
repaired in the new tunnel at only
nominal expense.

WOOD TICK BITE KILLS
PROMINENT MINING MAN

fever. a deadly malady transmitted to
him by the bite of a wood tick IN Idaho
county, Idaho, just IS days ago. Chas.
A. Ridgway, vice president of the
Humboldt Mining company, died, at the
age of so, Thursday night at his home,
1917 Montgomery avenue.
Mr.. Ridgway at the time the fever
was contracted has been visiting his
property and on the afternoon of July
Z while making an inspection felt the
sting of the insect that caused his
death He paid no attention to it, but
finished his work and returned to his
home in Spokane. The day he returned,
however, he was taken sick with
fever and in spite of all that could be
done for him steadily grew worse.
Disease Uncommon i'm Washington.
Dr. j. M. Cunning, who was called
in on the case, recognized the nature
of the illness, but was unable to check
it. Spotted fever, while almost un-
known in this state, occurs in Mon
tana and Idaho and is noted for its
deadliness. In the Bitter Root valley,
Mont, where scores have died of
spotted fever, the government sus-
tanned a station for several years to
study the disease.

NEW RECORD FOR

A new record for breakfast appetite
has been set at the Pastime cafe, the
claimant of the honors being Roy
Otney of this city. Asserting that
breakfast was his light meal, he pro-
ceeded to limit his order to one T-bone
steak, two pieces of dry toast, one cup
of coffee, eight glasses of water, forty
hot cakes, no less than a quart of
syrup, and one-fourth of pound of
butter. The consumption of this re
markable order was undertaken on a
wager with the cook who appears to
his wares.

Mexican Ambassador Denies Saying
Mediation Plan Was Rot Holds
Long Interview With Secretary of
State Bryan This Morning.

| last night why he considered the plan
| for a tri-partite commission not q
| feasible one.
IF we are to consider such a plan
we may as well abandon the Monroe
| doctrine entirely" he said. THE
| Monroe doctrine pledges the United
| States to take care of the interests
| of South American governments with
out the aid of any foreign country.
Consequently, under the Monroe doc
trine we cannot attempt to settle Mex
ico's affairs through the services of
such body since it involves calling
in outside governments to help"
Mr.. Wilson was reticent when ques-
toned as to his policies on American
Intervention and recognition of Mex
leo by the United States. These views,
he said, he felt he must reserve for his
conference with President Wilson and
Secretary Bryan.
The ambassadors silence regarding
his opinion as to American recognition
was broken last night long enough for
him to comment on one of his acts
subsequent to the overthrow of Ma
dero. Mr.. Wilson recalled that this
act was interpreted in many quarters
as virtual recognition Notwithstanding
the refusal of his government at
Washington to admit the republic on a
diplomatic footing with other govern
ments.
In February when Huerta became
provisional president, the ambassador
instructed American consuls in Mexi-
co 'in the interests of Mexico to urge |
general submission and adhension to |
the government, which was recognized |
by all foreign governments yesterday"
Mr.. Wilson said wrong construc-
lion would be placed upon this advice |
10 consular officers by any person who
believed that it meant he recognized
he Huerta government, or that he had
1esired to conflict in any way with
he policies of either Mr.. Taft as pres
dent or President Wilson.

 for GIanders.

The report of the board of commis sioners of agriculture and forestry of the territory of Hawaii for 1912 has just been issued
 In submitting the report of the di- vision of animal industry. Territorial Veterinarian Norgaard makes the fol- lowing statement: Contrary to previ- ous usage. I take the liberty to submit this report over the name of my as sistant. Dr. Leonard N. Case, in con- junction with my own, in recognition of faithful work and results attained
 The work above referred to relates to original experiments in the appli- cation of the intradermal test for glanders. These experiments of Dr. Case extended over period of two years, resulting in establishing the superiority of this test over the old Subcutaneous test.
 The report after citing specific in stances of the application of the intra derrna1 test, says: This test must be considered an absolute triumph. and have no doubt will be adopted the world over as soon as 1t becomes known. This method was first sug- gested by Dr. Case as a direct result of our work with the intradermal method of tuberculin testing.
 pr. Leonard N. Case is d graduate of the Norwich Free Academy, '01. and of Cornell university, 0S. For the past five years Dr. Case has creditably filled the position of assistant veterinarian Of Hawaii.
