Horses Burned.

Wednesday our people we're startled
by fire alarm. 1t proved to be a barn
belonging to Mr.. Clemens on fire. The
structure was situated outside the city
limits near the Northern Pacific elevator
and before the department could reach
the place the barn was sheet of flame
and the large elevator was smoking from
the intense heat. The hose lacked con-
siderable OF reaching, and that the eleva-
tor is standing today, is due to the un-
firing efforts OF the Hook and Ladder
Company. 1t is supposed that the fire
was of incendiary origin, as only last week,
a stable close to the elevator was dis.
covered to be on lire, butA by dint Of
good fortune and prompt ACTON was put
out before damage to any extent was
done. Mr. Clemens lost three good
horses, which fell prey to the fire
fiend, also large quantity OF hay, har-
ness etc. It is understood that some in.
suranee was carried on the stable.

There is only one way TO cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
ly closed, deafness is the result, Isnd
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out OF ten are caused by
catarrh. which is nothing but an linflam-
ed condition Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case Of deafness Caused bv catsrrh)

CAMP BRYAN AGAIN.


Doings and Sayings of Those VIII
Were Camped There.
A party went camping
To the springs 80 clear and cold,
And in that crowd of forty
Only two would vote for gold.
Our camp we called Camp Bryan,
And the name we posted well,
Everyone of us for eilver
And could give silver yell.
You know why we called it Bryan,
For our nominee so bold;
1t he fails to reach the White House,
He'll be beaten with the gold.
One night we held meeting
Around the campfire bright,
To rstify for Bryan,
Which we did with all or might.
Winkle was our chairman,
mo relation to old Rip,l
And the speech he made for silver
Caused the gold-bug heads to dip.
Fred took notes for the ATHENA Press
E. Mrs. Goodman FIR the Leader,
And the jolly time " had there
Will be enjoyed by every reader.
We Gang our songs for silvsr,
So the forest did lesound;
Ali our votes we pledged for Bryae,
When November rolls around
Hurrah fer Billy Bryan,
And for silver bright aud free;
We pledge ourselves for Bryan,
Beneath the huckleberry tree.

The FIVE composing the Athena branch
Of Camp Bryan report forty gallons OF
the luscious fruit and they left plenty for
others who may desire to stop there. rhe
family OF Mr. Robbins, the well known
threeher, arc camped and we found pleas
ant company In Mrs. Robbins and littl e
ones.
M. M. Johns and family sent word they
would stop on Friday en- route TO SaliDg's
and dine with US. We we're ignorant of
the fact that they would bring us sny
dainties, go we left early for the berry
patch. When they arrived there was no
one ITO home," but the campfire was
smoldering, and they cooked their din
ner, helping themselves to what our
cupboard afforded. On oui return we
noted some one had been there, and we
found pan with some fresh beef with q
note, "This beef has been saited, Aug.
Ia, '96. Where do you keep your eugar ?"
Prof, VanWinkle and Allan are good
at initiating "bar" and gave our party
quite scare.
We found such pleasant company in
the family Of Mr. Goodman, and the
death of Mrs. Stewart, Mrs. Goodman Is
mother, cast quite gloom on our merry
crowd. We sympathize with them all
in this bereavement
There was good deal Of rivalry in our
camp as to who would be the champion
punster, and We herewith report a few Of
the "Wood" be bright sayings:
A family named Shumway was camped
not far away, and punster No. said,
s(h)um.way | can't catch onto that
name" A suggestion was made that
dynamite be used to clear the stumps
for the farm land, when the bright editor
of the Weston Leader remarked, II will
have to dine mite to stay my stomach
if you don't keep STILL"
Coming home we noticed how farmer
had utilized a straight row Of pine trees
on which to fasten his fence wire, oul
driver said, "Oh, yes, they are in rows
while Miss Gracefully replied, "They
are not rose hut pines."
One Wednesday, the sole occupants ni
our camp we're Grandma VanWinkle,
Oecile and Mrs. Boyd and Grace Bradley.
Mrs Boyd heard a cougars cry and their
slumbers were disturbed, and at day
break noises were heard near the tent.
Mrs. Boyd armed herself with 38 rife,
steathily approaching the door of the tent
prepared to meet cougar or any other
'bird" of it's kind when to her horror and
disgust, she found the racket was made
by our chickens coming off the roost. x.
