fled off as a benefit for the Red
Cross, Y. NJ. c. A. and Knights of

that organization before he ceased
his efforts in behalf of the winning
of the great war. The aristocratic
animal was put on the block for the
Salvation Army by Judge Thos Neill,
who held the lucky number in the
rattle, and brought $340, finally go
ing to Chas. Kincaid, To add to the
good work J. S, Klemgard passed his
hat among the crowd and secured an

CHOW" IS SERVED
IN NEW MESS HALL
Soldiers Are Much Pleased With
Their New Eating Place, Which
Is ROOmy and Well Lighted

Chow was served Wednesday in
the big new mess hall at the State
College, and the soldiers were en-
thusiastic in praise of their new eat
ing place. A number of the mem
bers of the new training detachment
spent their first night in Pullman in
the sleeping quarters over the hall,
and were well satisfied although
some of them were short on blankets.
The Pull Men gives the following de-
scription of the building:
Tho new mess hall, as it is called,
is a large frame building, two stories
high and with a ground dimension of
64X132 feet. 1t is by no means a
mess hall alone. The lower floor, or
basement, is not to be used for any
special purpose at present, unless
needed. This floor contains, now
ever, the hot water system at present,
and will probably be utilized for stor-
age The ground floor is the mess
hall proper. The west "a feet of this
floor is occupied by the Kitchens
dish room and a small store room.
The mess hall proper contains 80
tables, each 2S feet long, with seat
ing capacity of $40 men, without
crOwding. The upper floor is to be
used as a barracks and will afford
room for from 200 to 800 beds.
1t is of interest to know that the
equipment of this new mess hall is
strictly modern in every respect. The
kitchen will be as up to date as any
of its kind. One large, three-com-
partment steam cooker has been in
stalled and two 60-gallon and one so
gallon aluminium steam boilers are
ready to boil all the coffee, soup and
stew we care to consume. These
large yats are surrounded by steam
Jackets and afford the most econom-
ical and sanitary methods for cooking
that is known. Two large steel
ranges, each more than 10 feet long,
will take care of the minor cooking
not handled by the large watts.

ISAACS
TO Do WAR WORK
State College Man Named Assistant
Supervisor for =. \. T. c..
Will Maintain Headquarters
mt Helena, Mont

Charles A. Isaacs, professor of
mathematics and general secretary
for the State College of Washington,
has been granted leave of absence for
the duration of the war to accept an
appointment as one of the four as
sistant supervisors for the students
army training corps in District No.
II, comprising the states of Wash
ington, Oregon, Montana and Idaho
Prof. lsaacs is assigned to the super
vision of the work in mathematics,
physics and engineering in the II OF
IS colleges and universities of the
four states maintaining units of the
S. A. T. c., and his new work will
bring him in direct touch with some
1900 student-soldiers in the North
west.
Prof lsaacs, in his capacity as gen.
eral secretary for the college, was
one of the most valuable men on the
faculty, his exceptional efficiency be-
ing recognized throughout the Pacific
Northwest. He leaves the college
temporarily, however, with the ad-
vice and consent OF President +. O.
Holland, who is willing to make the
sacrifice in the interests of the gov
ernment and the great war.
The appointment was made by
Chancellor f. c. Eliot Of the Uni
versity of Montana, who visited Pull
man this week to confer with Prof.
Isaacs. The new assistant super
visor left yesterday afternoon for
Kansas City, where he will attend a
conference of all the supervisors and
assistant supervisors of the states
west of the Mississippi river AT the
conclusion of the conference Prof.
Isaacs will return west and will take
up his headquarters at Helena, Mont.
His new work, however, will keep
him on the road practically all the
time, and he expects to spend as
much time in Pullman as at his head
quarters.

ARMY DESERTER MAY
Be AUTOMOBILE THIEF
Indications Point to Deserter From
Fort Wright as Man Who Stole
j. u. Hollis Automobile

Late developments in the hunt for
the thief or thieves who stole ]. b.
Hollis Overland automobile two
weeks ago indicate that soldier who
deserted from Fort George Wright
may have been implicated in the
theft and efforts are being made
both by the federal and state officers,
to apprehend the deserter. Pictures
of the man have been secured and
posters bearing lis likeness have
been sent to every nook and Granny
of the country, so that his arrest is
probably only matter of time.
The deserter IS a man who was
picked up at CofaX as draft slack
err When questioned there he pro
duced registration card which
proved bogus, it being discovered
that he had purchased the card from
a bona fide regi- irant, paying Sc for
the slip of paper. He was sent to
Fort Wright and Immediately induct-
ed in to the service. but deserted soon
after receiving his uniform and
equipment.
About noon on the day that the
automobile was stolen a soldier in
uniform appeared at the V. l.. Hig-
gins place on Union flat aad asked
for and was given his dinner. The
soldier stated that he was to meet a
friend in that neighborhood soon af-
diers one of them presumably the
man who had been at the Higgins
place, were picked up by passing
automobile and given a ride to the
outskirts of town, where they asked
TO be let out. During the late after
noon and evening the two soldiers
were observed by several citizens
near the cemetery, just across the
road from the Holt place.
The actions of the two soldiers.
and everything connected with the
case, point to them as the probable
perpetrators of the theft, although
all the evidence up to date, is purely
circumstantial Mr.. Higgins has
identified the picture of the alleged
deserter as the man who partook of
his hospitality Sunday noon. Mr..
Holt has offered a reward for the re-
coyery of the car and another for
the apprehension of the thief.

CHAPTER IN
"BOlOGNA'S" TROUBLES
Aged Celestial Is Taken to COlfaX for
Examination for Insanity
Thursday

Gong Lee, better known as DO
logna," Pullman's pioneer Chinaman,
was taken to Colfax Thursday morn
ing by Chief of Police A. r. Boyd and
Deputy Sheriff Baker of Colfax to be
examined for insanity At intervals
during the past four years, Gong
Lee, who is thought to be over 80
years of age, has suffered from men
tai illusions, imagining that some
body was intent On doing him bodily
harm. For several days past he has
created a commotion in his shack
nights, screaming at the top of his
voice and calling for help.
The aged Celestial is almost total
" blind, the result of the jealousy OF
a French cook at Rosalia in the early
days of Whitman county's history
when the Frenchman became an
gered at the Chinaman, who had
been given his position as cook. and
threw a pan of hot grease IN the &C.
lestial's face. Soon afterward ne
came to Pullman and has made his
home here for over 80 years, gaining
many friends. For the past three
years he has been county charge
subsisting in apparent plenty on the
SO per month given him by the
county. The city of Pullman con-
structed a shack near the O.-W r. &
N. depot for the old man.
During his long residence in Pull
man Bologna" has been made the
victim of many INSCRIPTIONS per
sons. and claims to have lost hun
dreds OF dollars to those who have
taken advantage of his peculiarities'
Six years ago he was sued for $5o,-
600 by a Spokane woman, who al
legged breach OF promise, but the sun
was dropped when it was discovered
that "Bologna's" alleged wealth was
q myth.
