NEW PRESIDENT OF
DARTMOUTH
Hanover, N. H., Oct. 14. —The in
auguration of Dr. Ernest Fox Nichols
as tenth president of Dartmouth col
lege since its founding in 1769, was a
great day for the institution. Many
alumni and friends were present
from all parts of the country, to
gether with a large* number of dis
tinguished educators.
The exercises of the day began with
prayers in Rollins' chapel this morn
ing. Immediately following this the
procession formed and marched to
Webster hall, the scene of the in
auguration exercises. The hall was
lavishly decorated in green—the col
lege color- —and with many potted
plants and cut flowers. The exer
cises included congratulatory ad
dresses delivered in behalf of the
trustees, alumni, faculty and student
body of the college and the formal de
livery of the keys and charter to the
new president. The program conclud
ed with the inaugural address of
President Nichols in which he outlin
ed his policy of administration. At
the close of the exercises the invited
guests adjourned to College Hall for
luncheon.
The new president of Dartmouth
belongs to the most useful class of
broad-minded scholars whose inter
ests are not confined by the boun
daries of any one field of thought <»r
activity, but extend over all funda
mental problems of human concern

Dr. Nichols was born in 1869 at Leav
enworth, Kas. He received his early
education in the west and was grad
uated at the age of nineteen from the
Kansas Agricultural college, with the
degree of B. S. The next year was
spent in teaching, and the following
years as a graduate student in mathe
matics and physics at Cornell univer
sity, where he held the Erastus
Brooks fellowship.
In 1892 he was appointed to the
chair of physics and astronomy in
Colgate university. Dr. Nichols was
at Colgate six years, but two and a
half years of the time were spent on
leave of absence, studying at the Uni
versity of Berlin. While a student in
Berlin he devised a new form of the
radiometer, by means of which radi
ant energy could be measured with
great precision. After his return to
America he used this instrument at
the Yerkes observatory in Wisconsin
and the Mount Wilson observatory,
California, in attempts, largely suc
cessful, to measure the heat from
the stars and planets.
In 1898 Dr. Nichols was called to
the professorship of physics in Dart
mouth and continued to occupy that
position for five years. He then be
came professor of experimental phys
ics in Columbia university. The year
1904-05 he spent at Cambridge, Eng
land, and lectured both at the Royal
Institution in London and the Caven
dish Laboratory of Cambridge univer
sity. In 1907 he was made research
associate of the Carnegie institution
of Washington.
A. D. Hawkins, of Seattle, re
turned from a business trip up the
river yesterday, and is spending to
day in this city.

RAILROAD LABORERS SUPPOSED
TO HAVE BEEN SAVED DURING
KEY WEST STORM LOST THEIR
I4VES ON THE ISLANDS.
New Orleans. La., Oct. 14. —Ac-
cording to a wireless message from
Key West today at least 1,000 men
employed on the Florida East Coast
railroad were drowned in the storm
which wrecked a large part of the
roadway across the Keys. Many of
these reported to have perished were
living in houseboats made fast to the
trestlework or anchored in the shal
lows surrounding the marshy islands.
Earlier it was reported that the
men escaped but these reports are
being contradicted by later advices
reaching the mainland. West is
still under martial law, and a num
ber of looters have been taken into
custody by the troops and police, who
are on constant guard.
The buildings wrecked by the fury
of the hurricane are being torn down
and the almost impassable streets are
j slowly being cleared of tangled de
i bris.
It is estimated that the damage ;
| done is over $2,000,000. Reports of
! the havoc wrought by the storm are
pouring into the city from all sec
; tlons and they are so conflicting that.
•it is difficult to learn exactly what
the loss of life is. The dispatches,
however, tend to confirm the reports
that there was great loss of life, par
ticularly on the Southern Keys.
Appeals for Aid.
An appeal for aid for the citizens
!of Key We3t was issued today by
Mayor Fogarty. He said that prac
i tically every home in the city had
| either been demolished or greatly
1 damaged by the hurricane, and that
j those who still had their homes were
| scarcely able to care for their fam
! ilies.
Starvation threatens the city, the
mayor said. Work is suspended and
the chances of earning a livelihood
for those dependent on daily wages
is gone, as the factories are wrecked
and business is at a standstill.
THOMAS UPTON IS
BLACK-BALLED
***10-23
MOST EXCLUSIVE YACHT CLUB
IX THE WORLD WILL NOT
ALLOW HIM TO BECOME ONE
OF ITS MEMBERS.
London. Oct. 14. —A serious set
back in the social career of Sir
Thomas Lipton has just occurred. His
application for membership in the
Royal Thames Yacht club was re
jected.
He was blackballed by the Royal
Yacht Squadron club. too. though
King Edward personally put up Lin
ton's name for election. The Royal
Yacht Squadron club is the most ex
clusive in the world, and so particu
lar are many of its members con
cerning the men with whom they as
sociate that dozens of persons of un
questioned social position have been
"pilled." It has happened so often
that it is considered no longer even
a matter for comment.
But to be blackballed by the Royal
Yacht Squadron club and the Royal
Thames Yacht club are two very dif
ferent things. The Royal Thames
Yacht club is distinctively second
rate and the rejection of his appli
cation is considered a great snub.
Sir Thomas is not, in fact, popu
lar with the British aristocracy. The
truth is they resent his rise. As
long as he remained merely a mil
lionaire there was no objection to
him, but when a title was conferred
upon him, the "upper circles" im
mediately jumped to the conclnsion
that Sir Thomas was bent on a social
clmb and was trying to force himself
into the coterie of the socially elect.
Then he began to b?< disliked as an
"upstart" and his position has been
a difficult one ever sine& bitfOfl*
Malaga Schoolhouae.
Architect J. N. Sussex is drawing
plans for a new four-room brick
schoolhouse to be built at Malaga.
The building will be modern in every
respect and will cost about $10,000.
Work will be started as soon as the
plans are completed and contract
awarded, and it 4s expected that the
brick work will be completed before
cold weather seta in. The building
will occupy a prominent position on
a hill south of the station.

MIS MIR
II HE
H. A. HOVER OF SPOKANE JUST
HOME FROM 18,000 MILE TOUR
ACCOMPLISHED IN A PERIOD
OF EIGHTEEN MONTHS.
Herbert A. Hoover has just return-1
ed to Spokane from an 18,000-mile j
tour through the United States and j
Europe, which he and his wife, now \
I
visiting relatives at Leavenworth,
Kas.. accomplished in 18 months with
a 30-horsepower, four-cylinder car.
They had numerous exciting exper- j
iences while abroad and were snow- !
bound for eight day in the Alps,
where they were also all but plung^l 1
over a sheer precipice of 100 feet by;
a heavy car bearing down upon them
while turning a curve.
After completing 10,000 miles in
the United tSates, starting in south
ern California on the Mexican border
and touching Canadian territory, they |
sailed from New York on the ill
fated steamship Republic and were
exposed to the elements on deck and
open boats for 24 hours before be
ing taken ashore. Mrs. Hover sus
tained a nervous shock and contract
ed a cold from which she has not yet
recovered.
"Europe is a veritable paradise for:
reckless drivers and the so-called 'joyj
riders,'" Hover said in speaking of
his trip abroad. "The roads are un
usually good and such a thing as a
speed limit is not known, and, as a'
result, there are frequent head-on;
collisions, which invariably end fatal
ly, in addition to destroying hundreds
of thousands of dollars' worth of:
property annually. From four to five
collisions a week on the road between
Nice and Monte Carlo is not out of
the ordinary.
"Another thing is the system of I
graft by the drivers, from which there;
is no escape. Besides paying his me
chanic $150 a month the tourist is!
also forced to give up 25 per cent i
commission on all purchases. A hired
ear costs from $1200 to $1500 a
month in addition to the foregoing,
•ad with the chauffeur's personal ex-j
penses this runs the bill up to $2000 !
a month."
Mrs. T. J. Groves entertained last
night in her rooms at the Chewawa
hotel, at 6 o'clock dinner, for her
parents. Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Palmar
and Mrs. Burch of Seattle.
