furniture was saved. Seven tons of hay,
twenty five bushels of potatoes and hog
were burned. Mr.. Hutchings estimates
his loss at close to $1,000. There was 500
insurance on house and furniture; no in

and already first symptoms of the fever
are in evidence. Ellsworth will have two
| teams on the gridiron again this season

| school team will be light in weight, but
there Is life and grit enough in the
material available to make a good scrappy
| team Bellatty has already put some of
| the boys through their preliminary PAGES.
| The Dirigos will have about the same
| team as last year, and with years eX-
| perience behind them should make very
| strong team. They will have for coach
! this year one of the best foot ball men in
the State. At meeting of the football
| association Monday night, Otis l.. Collins
was elected captain of the team but has
| declined in favor of K. f. Mason who
doubtless will be elected.
