Arrange Another Ball Game.

The result of the ball game
Saturday at Grangeville was
neither satisfactory nor conVlnc-
ing and an effort is now being
made to get the Kamiah team up
here to play another game in the
near future. Negotiations are
being made to put up a purse OF
S1OO for the winning team and 1t
is believed a game can be arrang-
ed. 1t is also intended to give a
dance in the evening after the
game ior the benefit of the home
team and to buy them new suits.
A number of the ladies have
agreed to furnish the supper, the
music and hall have been secured
free of charge and it is believed
enough can be made from the
dance to buy nice new suits for
the boys. The enterprise is a
worthy one and all should assist
it literally. Everyone should be
proud of our ball team and glad
to see them in neat suits.
In case the game with Kamiah
is arranged it is the intention t.
throw the town wide open to the
visitors, if possible, and show
them a time such as they have
not seen for many days. The
game will be a fierce one an(
worth going miles to see.

and should be backed up by a
good water system, but for small
fires it is the proper thing and
can be gotten to the scene of the
fire and into action in a very
short time after an alarm is
sounded. The hook and ladder
truck is also something badly
needed here and may prove quite
valuable in time to come.
Mr.. See, VINO accompanied the
engine here, is organizing a fire
company to handle the outfit and
will also instruct several in the
workings of the engine so as to
have it ready to use at any mo-
ment.
The outfit costs the city $1,000
and would easily have paid for
itself Saturday had it been here.
Owing to a mistake in shipping,
however, it was at Lewiston
since about June 18th when il
should have been here since thai
date.

with headquarters at Spokane,
and w. ]. Jordon; general agent
for the company at Lewiston,
were in town Tuesday and We'd
nesday looking over the grounds
at this place. They were visit
ing all the stations along the new
line and expressed great surprise
at the richness of the country
being opened up by the new
road. This was their first trip
to the prairie and while they had
heard considerable regarding the
richness of this part of Idaho
they were not prepared for the
surprise awaiting them. Mr..
Jordon stated while here that he
felt certain the construction de-
partment had not made sufficient
allowance for the vast amount of
patronage the road will receive
at all points along the line as
soon as it is ready ready fol-
operation and as it would be q
hard matter to change things

Fire Apparatus Here At Last.

The chemical fire engine and
hook and ladder truck, which
was ordered last May and should
have been here early last month,

and rubbish was collected and
lighted after being saturated
with coal oil, After it was
thoroughly afiame the chemical
solution was turned on it and in
a few minutes the fire was prac-
tically extinguished. The test
given showed the engine to be
fully as represented and proved
to all present that had the outfit
been here last Saturday the fire
on that day could easily have
been confined to the small build
ing in which it started.
The engine is provided with
two cylinders of 45 gallons ca.
pacity each and while one is be-
ing used the other can be re
charged, thus affording a con
tinuous stream. AS it takes
nearly ten minutes to exhaus
one cylinder ample time is givel
to reload the other. The engine
is very effective for all ordinar!
fires and as the chemical solution

to get close in to the base of tn
fire and turn the water where
is most needed. The engine i
