Dear
I received your letter on last Sunday
n'ght and this Is my first opportunity
to answer.
In this old holo of a place there Is
not much doing of Interest to you. I
suppose now all the fellowB have again
started In on a bard year's work.
And football! I want to play again
jUBt for one game the Iowa game. I
would glv( a good deal to be able to
lick old Iowa btfore my football career
closes, but I guess it is closed now.
Who will they get for right tackle in
Johnny Weatover's place? Old Captain
John! the best captain and beBt tackle
Nebraska evor had and easily the best
tackle In the west for the last two
yoarft I'vo played beside him for three
straight years, and I guess I ought
to know something about his merit. He
never shirked or faltered and when
there was anything doing John was
there with the goods overy time. Give
my best regards to all the boys and
tell them I'm with every one of them.
Wo have been having lots of La
drones and imaginary bad men around
here lately. A week ago I had my par
ty out all day near San Pablo and as
I enmo in I met a guard of ten men
who wore on the way to get us, as La-
drones had been seen around there all
day. I have a ".38" and when I empty
it why I can run like the dickens, but
I think there's not much cause to be
nervous about it. It rains every day
and we usually got soaked. YesterUay
wo had quite a time. We walked ten
miles up in the gorge of the Botocan
river. At 1 p. m. the men with the
launch had not appeared and it being
Saturday we started back. Instead of
going back up the gorge to the trail we
though it would be closer to go up the
nearly vertical wall of the gorge 700
feet high, too then1 cat across country
for Lulsiana. Just then it Started to
pour and in an Instant we were soaked
to the skin. By pulling ourselves up
by vines, roots, rocks and trees we
leached the top safely, although a loose
rock nearly fixed one man. There was
no path and wo had a very bad time
of it. After an hour and a half's walk
ing we saw a house. The Filipinos
asked for the "cameno" (path), and we
got, started. We reached here about
4:30 p. m., having walked very hard
since 1 p. m., and having had nothing
to eat since 6 n. m. Well, I guess
those canned beanB wo had tasted just
like Nut Sundaes at Itiggs' on Sat
urday night after a hard game.
Write often. With best regards for
tho follows individually and collective
ly, lam -
Yours.

ADOLPH HERMAN,

A much needed improvement In the
Mechanic Arts building Is a mange In
location of either tho library or civil
engineering laboratory, preferably the
latter. The motor running the RIehle
testing machine is attached to the
beams under tho library floor, and
causes a constant shaking of the whole
floor. This Ib not only annoying but
is also trying on the eyes of the stu
dents. When the new buildings are
erected wo hope this matter will be
remedied in the new arrangement of
quarters.
Negligent About Books.
Considerable trouble has been experi
ence of late in the law library in the
way of losing track of books.
Owing ta tho fact that the library
Is not yet heated and Is often too un
comfortable for studying, students were
In certain cases permitted to carry
books from the library. This became
chronic, and as a result a number of
books have been taken away and not
returned. These are books In constant
need and great injustice has been felt
by the students who are thus denied
the use of the books. In view of this
fact the Senior class at a special meet
ing empowered the president to appoint
a committee to confer with the faculty
to devise Borne means of having these
books returned, and If necessary to
visit the rooms of students who are sus
pected. This is an unfortunate condition of
affairs and was severely censured by
the class. They feel the books will be
I returned in time, but will not tolerate
buen BuiiibiinubB, wnicn is in laci close
ly connected with thievery. Individual
detective work is boing tarried on and
It is the general sentiment that things
will become uncomfortably warm for
the culprits. Deplorable a it may be,
stndentfl have-in- tho history of tho
University been dismissed for reaching
too far with long fingers and customs
have not Changed very mucn in this
respect. It is hoped nothing disgrace
ful will be made necessary, but if it
does become necessary but little sym
pathy will bo extended by the authorI-
ties and certainly not by the students,
since all will feol their rights tress
passed upon.
