The Teller Office Burned.

The Teller Office was DESTROYED bv fire
last Monday evening. AT $50 a blaze
broke through the roof of the onc-storv
wooden building and before the alarm
was fairly sounded the enclosed space in
the garnet was full of fire The fire
apparatus was frozen and the nozzle was
clogged with ice when the water was at
last turned on. The stream could not
reach the hlaze owing to the protection
of the roof and walls till the tirnbers be
gan to fall
The building at the corner ofMain and
Second streets is total wreck. The
Office fixtures and stock were generally
saved. They were damaged only by
removal and water. All the machinery
except the big press and the engine were
carried out into the street. The building
and stock were insured sufficiently to
cover the loss and damages.
The Teller Office is temporarily located
in the Masonic hall The press work of
this issue was done in the Office of the
Tribune. The publishers of the Tribune
kindly rendered the use of press and
office in this emergency, for which the
Teller extends thanks.

City Council Meeting.

The city fathers met III regular con-
clave last night. The monthly bills were
allowed and reports of the marshal and
street commissioner were accepted; and
then came number of petitions. John
Green appeared for the Snake river ferry
with petition asking the council to
compel the railroad company to protect
the ferry tower and landing and the
street against high water. The matter
was referred to the street committee and
the street commissioner.
George II. Storer petitioned through
his attorney, S. l.. Mcfarland, for deed
to a section of a vacated street near his
residence on the hill. Upon the advise
of Attorney Poe that the abandoned
street legally belonged to the adjoining
property. The mayor was authorized to
make the deed if after investigation he
believed the plat of land in question
really belonged to the petitioner.
The Cash Hardware company asked
permission to extend a section of side
walk i'll front of their warehouse, out
three feet into the street for the purpose
of displaying their goods. The petition
was denied for the reason that the coun-
Gil believed such a privilege would in
stitute dangerous precedent
A committee Of Masons presented a
$Ioo bid for a lot on the point directly
east of Fifth street grade for the purpose
of erecting thereon Masonic temple
The council accepted the proposition
conditioned upon the construction of the
temple on the site within one year.
The question of power for deputies to
assist the marshal was raised. 1t wa.
held by the Attorney that The power te
appoint rested wholly with the city
marshal but that the council must con
firm the appointments. The marsha
then asked the confirmation of w. l.
Dyer and George Stonebraker. Stone
braker was unanimously confirmed bu
the vote stood 8 to against Dyer. L
was explained by Mr.. Dent that he ha,
no objection to Mr.. Dyer but he believed
Dud Gilman should be retained on tn,
the force. The marshal thereupon Dor
rowed few epithets from Gen Eagan
and the city police force will perhaps ex
pend their energy fighting among them
selves while the rogues hold high carui
val.
After the excitement over the question
of deputies the proposed amendments t,
the city charters were read which llas
the effeetion of quieting the nerves Th,
copies of these bills were ordered for
warded to the state legislature, tw,
amending the city charter to enable thu
council to make public improvements
such as building bridges and construct
ing pavements aud the other to authoriz
the county to assist the city in buildin,
bridges.

Coal on the Grande Ronde.

A new coal field has been discovered
on the Grande Ronde river forty miles
from Lewiston. Samples of Ignite have
often been exhibited from that region,
but because it was not first class coal ii
caused no excitement-not even curiosity
enough to induce investigation. 1t now
develops that the light samples were
only the groupings Of great bank of
bituniinous coal.
The honesteaders of Lost Prairie on
the south side of Grande Ronde have
known of this coal vein for more than
two years but they guarded the secret be-
cause they knew the report of the dis
covery would invalidate their homestead
rights to the land by causing it to be
classed as coal or mineral land. But the
secret is now out. The hornesteaders
have been changing their filings to coal
land entries; and there is quite an ex-
citement in the vicinity of the Grande
Ronde.
Investigation has developed the fact
that the Ignite changes to good quality
of coal with depth. The vein is six feet
thick on an average and it underlies 10
square miles OF land, incldding Lost
prairie. Both railroads have investigated
this discovery and they are to tap this
new coal field III the near future.

Discussed Below.

The question of obtaining high grade
food at moderate rr,ce. is of interest to
every houseksepsr and proyider.
Some food is SO bulky that even at a
very low price FER pound, the actual food
value is SO little that it Is really expen-
siye; on the other hand, there are con-
oentrated foods, Ike, for instance, the
famous breakfast fDod known as "Grape-
Nuts" that sell at Is cents per pound,
but yield In food units SO much value
that but little of the food should he used
at time, and in reality, when properly
used, the expense Is about one cent per
meal.
Tits common mistake 70 use too much
of the Food Graps-N Nuts. Its taste IL
crisp, with the delicate sweet flavor OF
grape sugar, and one is inclined to eat
double the proper quantity. A lady
writes from indianapolis. Mrs. A. L.
Wilson: "We have been using your
Grape-Nuts now for two or three weeks.
/ cannot tell you how much find it has
benefited me. My husband Is physi-
ian and he not only uses 1t at each meal,
but likes it at bedtime
Using the food In this way. some fam
lilies might be impressed with the cost,
but after all. good food, which keeps the
family in prime condition of health, at a
moderate cost. Ia very much more profit

csrned. than to make use OF iow-grade,
bulky foods and from tins to time call In
a physician to help out.
The use of "Grape-Nuts' Ia Al aSonabls
quantity costs one cent per meal, and the
food stands without an equal in point of
nutrition and value in building up the
nerve centers and tissue of the body. The

the grape sugar which is produced by

reals, and this grape sugar lie presented

Missed His Train.

A passenger brakeman missed his
train the other day IN most peculiar
way About the time the train was to
leaves this point q charming young
widow appeared on the platform and
INDUCED 10 conversation with the will
ing brakeman. The passenger
train pulled down the track q short
way. to make room for an incoming
train, and stopped. The brakeman
chatted pleasantly with the lady for
some time, apparently oblivious OF his
duties, and suddenly turning his head
in the direction of :the train, he saw
it moving rapidly for :he north. His
contOrtions at this stage of the
proceeding were very interesting. He
cost q sharp glance at the
lady and At the deporting
train and started at q lively clip
down the track. After COW
ering an awful long distance in . short
length of time, he stopped for breath
and the train got away from him and
so did the widow. The brakeman re-
turned to the depot and was thrown
into q second fiji of nervousness by dis
coveriog, that he had two letters in his
pocket which the lacy told him to be
sure to send out on that train.

an observing resident to Round About
ut is simply wonderful to me the iber-
al manner in which our people respond.
The responses are not confined to those
who are looked upon as our heavy
men, but reaches all classes. Each
man seems to feel that it is his duty to
do his part and nearly all have q re-
pugnance to allowing someone else to
shoulder their share of the
burden. DenisOn has had
q good many hard knocks; some of
them have been very close to the solar
plexus and came very near doing their
work, but you can't keep q good man
down, you know, and the same thing
ia true of towns. The Herald has been
giving some pretty hard
raps in its editorial column
with reference to this subscrip-
ton, but it has helped to arouse the
people to the situation and has done
much to aid the soliciting committee
