Presence Of Mind Spares A
Little Child It's
Life
TAKEN ACCIDENTALLY
Babe GuIps Down Contents OF Box
And Writhes In Agony On Floor
Its Throat Will Not Heal
For Some Little Time

The prompt administration of an
antidote for lye, accidentally swal-
lowed, probably saved the life of the
19-months-old daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Sylvester Renner of the Coshoc-
ton road Saturday afternoon about
1870 o'clock.
Mrs. Renner had purchased small
box Of lye and had placed it on ia
BILE after having opened it. In the af-
ternOon, Airs. Renner lay down on a
couch to take a nap, leaving her lit
tie daughter to play about the home.
Hearing a scream, Mrs. Renner
awoke and rushed to the kitchen
where the child was writhing in in
tense pain. The box and its contents
were spread over the floor. Mrs. Rem
ner OWNED the cause of the pain suf-
fered by her child and, as quickly as
possible, mixed up a preparation
strong with vinegar and gave it to
the child.
Following this, the mother calle1
local physician who attended the
child and allayed the burning of the
child's throat as much as possible, the
baby having gulped down the lye, not
knowing what it was
It was stated by the attending ply
sician that Mrs. Renner's prompt ad-
mfnistration Of the antidote probably
saved the life Of the child, although it
will be some time before the little
girls throat viii heal entirely. For
several hours following the accident,
the child was scarcely able to breathe
and those moving of the accident
were anxious as to the condition of
the little girl.

New Structure to Offer More
Room. to Go Up Now That
Land Deal With "Y" is Con-
Summated .a-

A public utilities building that will
be a credit to Honolulu, and built
with an eye to the city's growth for
the next fifty years will be erected
by the Mutual Telephone Co. now that
it has succeeded in its snegotia-
tions with the Y. NJ. G. A. to
obtain the piece of land lying back
of its present building and fronting
on Alakea street. The proposed build.
ing Will be of concrete and stone, two
stories high, with huge basement, and
thoroughly iireproot. ....
We must have room to grow" said
John A. Balch, treasurer of the tele-
phone company. I've are crowded
so We have hardly room to breathe
in our present quarters. Besides, d
public utilities building in city the
size of Honolulu certainly should
have better entrance for the public
than a back alley" r s.-
The telephone building from bottom
TO top and from front to back is now
crammed full to- bursting. The oper-
ators' room, with four operators at
work, is barely big enough to pro-
vide comfortable quarters for one per.
son and one switchboard. Upstairs,
the crowding is painful, hardly room
enough to pass between the switch
boards. -.~."~. +-5 .~
IF we are called upon to put in an
other room before we get new build
ing" said Mr.. Balch, Il don't know
what we shall do, unless we hang 1t
out the winaow." = -.
The new building, according to the
plans, will connect with the pres.
ent building. The present front en-
trance will be closed. The operators
room will occupy the extreme rear,
or what is now the front of the build
ing, taking up the offices now used
by the company, and a wide corridor
will lead from this room to|the huge
lobby which will occupy the front of
the building, on the lower floor. On
one side of this corridor, room now
occupied by Mr.. Balch as his private
ofnce, will be turned into rest
room for the operators, and on the
other side, Immediately opposite, will
be library and a reading room for
women. employees. Beyond these
rooms, toward Alakea street, offices
for various officials will be placed on
either side OF the corridor. The bat
terry room, which now occupies the
entire SECOND floor, will be in the
basement. > .s w.
With the acquisition of the front
age on Alakea street, added to the
ground which lies between this space
and the present building, the tele-
phone company will have room for
building easily twice the size of its
present quarters. ,.. ~, ~
