STRUCTURE
TO HONOR WORK OF
DR.. JAMES B. ANGEL
President Emeritus Of UniVer-
Sity Of Michigan viii Receive
Fitting Tribute in 100000
Building.

ANN ARBOR, Mich oct. 4-The
sixty years Of public service rendered
by Or. James b. Angel, president eme-
ritus of the University of Michigan,
In education, diplomacy and journal
ism, are to be crowned by the build
ing in his honor of a $1,0O0,000 struc-
ture on the campus OF the University.
Into the local offices of the committee,
charged with the campaign to raise
the fund for the construction and en-
dowment of the Michigan Onion club
house, there have been pouring in late
ly from every state in the union, and
from all parts of the world, sugges-
tons and demands that the new build
ing be dedicated to DR.. Angel, for A
years actual or titular head Of the in
stitution
The officers Of the Union, which is
an organization of students and alum
mi, received the suggestion cordially
when first it was made and now that
/ the communication from former stu
dents take on a note of inslstenee to
, the same effect, it is said, the realiza-
! ton of the building project will be ac-
Icompanied by the naturalization of
/ the Angel Memorial The general
tenor of the alumni suggests is that
alumni undergraduates, professors
and citizens generally may express in
4 the million dollar Union home their
, regard for the man who has been
their guide and mentor for nearly half
a century
ut is peculiarly appropriate that
the Michigan Union home for students
and alumni should be builded and
maintained in the nature OF a memo
rial to DR.. Angel, because it is to
embody the newest idea in education
propounded by the oldest educator
said Dean Henry NJ. Bates, of the law
department, general chairman of the
Union campaign committee. THE
Union is devoted to work which DR..
Angell always had at heart-the com
plete characterization of the students
of a great University, and the social
zation of all the forces Of the Uni
yersity, faculty, undergraduate, alum
nj and citizen, to the end of higher
and more effective service to the com
monwealth and mankind"

Don't Flirt With City
Illuminating Gas; Who
Says 1t Will Not Kill ?

Harrisburg's Illuminating gas is
deadly. Just because three persons
within six months tried to shuttle off
inhaling this gas and failed to do so,
is said to be no indication that Har-
risburg gas is not dangerous. Ask /.
S. Williams, manager for the Harris
burg Gas Company. When told this
morning that reports were widely cir
culating, to the effect that people could
not be killed by inhaling illuminating
gas. he said:
That is not so. Everybody should
be careful. The gas now being used
is Just as dangerous as that furnished
from the local plants previous to the
change to Steelton gas. 1t is the car
bon di-oXide that kills. Illuminating
gas is full of it. and we warn our en-
ployes and everybody to be careful.
There may be times when the gas will
cause only sickness at first, but it will
surely kill if taken in sufficient guam
tity"

Here's Something to Worry
About! Sun Will Grow
Cold in Ten Million Years

Ihat our sun is only an ordinary
star, very near in comparison with
other stars, and is excelled both in
size and brilliancy by thousands of
other heavenly bodies known 10
astronomers, was declared last night
by Prof. S. A. Mitchell, of the Uni
versty of Virginia, in his lecture on
THE Sun, Our Giant Neighbor in the
Heavens" under the Natural History
society's auspices in the Technical
High school auditorium.
Though the sun is rather under
sized, as stars go, yet it is a million
and a quarter times as big as the
earth, and it is so far away that at
two cents mile a one way ticket
would cost nearly $2,000,0OO.
Reasons were given why astronom-
ers believe the sun is not a solid body
but huge ball of gas under enormous
pressure at temperature of over TO-
600 degrees Fair. 'If the sun
were large piece of coal, it could
not last more than 5000 years. The
suns heat is maintained by it's slow
contraction and not by combustion.
and it cannot continue beyond ten
million years to pour out heat at the
same rate II uOeS now. InG sun will
eventually become cold. he said.
Some very striking pictures of the
red tongues of flames that dart out
ward from the sun, as we'll as sun
spots many times the size of the
earth, and other remarkable features
which the astronomer can photo
graph with powerful instruments
were shown. The audience journey
ed 35. 900 miles with DR.. Mitchell on
his three expeditions to far off coun-
tries to view eclipses of the sun and
saw how such eclipse pictures are

i've soil, tributary and located close
to the railroad lines running
through the valley and with an
enormous amount of water stored
ready for use on this land, we have
every facility that there is in any
part of the world, taken in consid-
GRAFTON with our long days of sun
shine, to produce the highest quail
ity of beets that can be grown
anywhere.
Now, we ask, why don't these
people get together on some fair
basis and arrange to run this fac.
tory. It will add thousands of
dollars to the value of their plant
and it will add many thousands of
dollars to the income of the bust
ness men and farmers of this val
ley. We need beets in the rota
ton OF crops, and we can better
rely on the sugar beet crop than
most any other crop for rotation.
We understand, too, that the
sugar company has had an expert
down in this valley, and he claims
that in this climate and altitude is
about the only place on the west
ern continent that will produce
sugar beet seed in a successful
way. If this be true, fortune
may be lying in front of our doors
unawares.
We believe the acreage can be
raised to justify operation of the
factory, and we should like to see
this matter treated in broad,
business-like way-cut out the
quibbles-to the end that the man
ufacture of sugar may be a perma-
nent industry of the valley.

AN ERRONEOUS REPORT

The erroneous report seems to
have been given credence that
Monte Vista has large number Of
scarlet fever cases. There are in
fact only three cases of the disease
and these are of mild form. Our
health off ers have been very act
i've in preventing spread of the
contagion and besides having the
quarantine observed strictly, they
have fumigated the school houses
and are carefully on the watch to
detect new cases. The origin of
the scarlet fever at this place
seems impossible to determine and
is supposed to have come from
some family in which there was a
mild case and where no physician
was called.
The Monte Vista journal., 1915-01-16
LITIGATION THREATENS RUIN
OF SUGAR BUSINESSMVA

IAs we understand it, the status
of the sugar business in this valley
is about as follows:
Ward barley has sued the sugar
company for $4,000 commission
on sales of stock. This case is
pending in the district court in
Rio Grande county.
The railroad company, a sub
sidiary of the sugar company, has
sued forty-one of the leading peo-
pie of this valley for about $50, 900,
alleged to be due as damages on a
contract for the building of the
Center railroad.
On top of this the sugar COM
pany has commenced foreclosure
proceedings in Denver county to
foreolose mortgage amounting to
about $4,000, and for which
100000 of the bonds are pledged
to secure.
The bondholders and mortgage
men, being about the same, are the
majority owners of the stock in the
sugar company and refuse to de-
fend the foreclosure proceedings,
and the stockholders in MorHe
Vista and Denver, representing
about 100000 of the stock, have
been allowed by Judge Butler to
intervene and set up any defense
that they might have.
We are of the opinion that the
longer this litigation continues the
worse it will be for all people con-
oerned. In view of the fact that
we have q. million dollar sugar
plant located here, with the latest
modern machinery, about three
million acres of splendid product
