POWER TROUBLE
STOPS THE WHEELS

1t became necessary for the Holton
Power Company to shut down the
Holtville plant yesterday to sluice
the canal, and while carrying the
heavy burden alone the steam plant
in this city developed trouble and had
to be closed down, leaving both plant:
out of commission this morning. Both
plants were brought into commission
later, but meanwhile the print shops
and other establishments were closed
down, the Press suffering with the
others.
1t is expected that the new con-
necticn with the Sierra Power Com
pany high power line will be complet-
ed for service by October 1, when
the power service of the valley will
be greatly improved.

VOLCANO LAKE LEVEE
CAUSE OF WORRY

Another break occurred yesterday
in the levee at Volcano lake, and con-
siderable apprehension is felt over
this fact.
Sixty men were set at work on the
break yesterday and by noon today
there were 200 men on the grounds,
working under Engineer Best, with
hope that the break would be closed
soon.
Should this not be done and the
large volume Of water should como
through the break, it would be pos
sible that eventually the irrigation
service west of New river would be
interrupted for time.
Engineer Perry left for the scene
late today.

AUTO DRIVER DIES
FROM HIS INJURIES

Charles Halter, who was injured
in an automobile accident late We'd
nesday evening, died at st. Thomas
hospital last evening from his in
juries.
Little is known of the cause of the
accident, but it appears probable that
the machine which collapsed was un-
fit for the service. 1t is stated that
but a few days before the accident
the owners had bought this machine
and another one for s400 for the two,
which would indicate that they were
pretty well worn out before being put
into the stage business.

El Centre Continues It's
Great Building Activity

are kept abreast of the growth of the
city.
Fine Business Blocks
The Freeman building on the south
east corner of Sixth and State streets,
the Weir building nthe northwest
corner of Fifth street and Broadway
and the Surface building west of the
Court house on Main street, now under
construction, will be three of the best
business buildings in the city, and
work on these will of necessity con-
tinue well through the summer.
Many Residences Provided
There continues to be active build
ing in the residence sections of the
town, though there is still the lack
of houses which has been notable for
years, and the new season will find
shortage hardly serious than was
experienced last fall.
Agencies for supplying the need in
this direction are increasing, however,
and it is believed that by fall there
will be better general financial con-
dition throughout the country and the
money available for such operations
will be greatly increased.
City Surging Ahead
Never has the city been advancing
with greater strides than its today,
and the exposition year, which is ex-
pected to give impetus to all the coast
will find the capital of the Imperial
Valley prepared to lead as it has done
in the past.
Imperial Valley press., 1914-06-05

With the season advanced into
June, there is building activity which
gives a program that will run through
the summer marking greater growth
than any preceding season.
The biggest building project the city
has yet experienced is that of the
Barbara Worth Hotel, and if any per-
son has doubted the completion of this
beautiful structure in the near future
he should make an inspection of the
work in progress. The large force
of workmen is now on the second floor,
and the building has attained proper
tions which already make it strik-
ing object in looking over the city.
1t is planned to have it completed by
October 1, which implies steady work
during the summer.
Beautiful School
The new grammar school building
on Fifth street is another building
which has attained imposing proper
tions, and which will be an ornament
to the city. 1t is we'll advanced to-
ward completion, and will be complet-
ed before the opening of the next
school year.
In spite Of the addition of this build
ing to the school equipment of the
city, however, school authorities are
worried for fear they will have the
sams crowded condition this year they
have had in the past, it being with
great difficulty the school facilities

"CANNING" MOSQUITOES
ALONG THE CANAL

By Willis ]. Abbot, author Of "Pan-
ma and the Canal in Picture and
Prose-"
Copyright, 1918, Syndicate Pub
fishing Company, New York. All

The latest desire in the unceasing
warfare of the sanitation department
upon the mosquito Of the canal zone
is contraption which shows which
way the 'skeeter flies, where he comes
from and whittier he is going. 1t is
small frame holding four glass plates
set at right angles, with each plate
facing one point of the compass
North, South, East or West. All are
properly coated with tanglefoot so
that when, the needless mosquito
bumps into a plate in his flight, he
stays permanently. This machine has
shown that the mosquitoes fly in the
early evening--something that most
of us have discovered without the aid
of mechanical ontrivances-and make
their return flight in the earl ymorn-
ing hours. The practical advantage of
the device lies in the fact that it indi-
Gates the direction from which the
pestilential insects came. If the plates
facing East and North, for example
are besprinkled with captured insects
the oil brigade and the germicide men
are dispatched in these directions to
look up the breeding places that
started out the flying squadrons Of
pestilence.
Since the mosquito theory" of the
methods of conveying malaria and
yellow fever ceased to be a theory
and became an established fact, no
pains are too great for the sanitation

LANDING OF ARMS
VIOLATES ARMISTICE
Omitted Press Day Service)


Washington, June 5.-The situation
arising from the departure Of the
steamer Antilla for Tampico with mu.
nitions of war for the rebels is caus-
ing actual embarra ssment to the ad-
ministration tonight, and may result
in disagreement of the gravest ma
ture.
Already it threatens the placidity
of negotiations at the conference, and
it is positively known tonight that
the arbitrators have intimated to
Washington that they will regard the
landing of these arms as a virtual
violation of the armistice.
The administration is in quandary,
because the Seizure of arms or of the
port to which they are consigned
would be tantamount to an act of
war. 1t is known the government per
mitted the German ships to land arms
at Puerto Mexico rather than raise
this question.
Meanwhile all negotiations at Mia
CARA Falls are held up pending a re.
ply from Carranza and the result of
the Antilla incident. No further word
came from Carranza today and it is
believed there will be no reply until
the new cabinet assumes it's duties.
