FIRE DESTROYS FIVE FLATS

Starting in an empty fat at 1905
Castro street last night fire destroyed
four other adjoining flats before Ii
could be extinguished, the total dam
age being estimated at about 1000.
The blaze, 1t is thought. was brought
about by spontaneous combustion
from some painters materials which
had been left there. The other flats
damaged were at 10o5M, 1907 and
1007h and 1909 Castro street. The
first two are the property of Henry

Indeed for the youth of Idaho the edu-

needs by the Regents and Faculty of
University win be readily understood
TO have a special value. 1t has been
purposely adapted to conditions existing
here. conditions with which the educa-
tors in the older East are not familiar.
With the situation as outlined above
now existing, with the showing already
made by the University in doing the
task set il and meeting the opportuni-
ties offered it before them. the people
of the commonwealth of Idaho have
come rapidly to realize that the only

Louis Exposition and the methods OF
instruction in schools of technology and
in manual training and trade schools
directed the chief serious criticism OF
their report against the faulty and in
adequate courses of instruction in
drawing, both free-hand and mechani-
cal. Idaho University has attempted
to render this objection impossible in
her case.
From the above review Of the work
done and the training offered at the
University it will be seen that young
man or woman must be in search of a
very exceptional line of education if it
is not among those provided for her
children by the state of Idaho. The
short notices of the equipment too will
show that the University is possessed
of the apparatus needed in giving a
thoroughly up TO date training, at a
tire when educational standards de-
mand that every school shall have an
amount of apparatus not found in the
most complete laboratories twenty
years ago. Look through the list of
the faculty and it is seen at once that
these men have not only been trained
in the foremost universities of America
and Europe, but they have also been
on the staff of instructors in the same
first-rank universities before coming to
their present positions. In filling the
professorships now vacant the most rig
id investigation has been made in the
case Of all applicants and only men
of the highest ability will be chosen to
the positions.
Careful and continual adherence to
these highest educational standards has
born its natural and very gratifying
fruit in the reputation held by the Uni
versity of Idaho among the colleges
and universities of America. The Trus-
tees of the Carnegie Fund for the Adj
vancement of Teaching rate Idaho in
the highest class, only thirteen other
universities sharing the same high rank,
and many older institutions and far
larger institutions receive a lower
rating.
All this demonstrates the fact that
to obtain real education of the highest
type no Idaho young person needs to
leave the boundaries of his state. To
obtain the best training for winning out
in life's great contest his own Univer
sity offers opportunities equal to those

University Of Chicago, and part of his
plan for the department is set Of

These always command larger audi
ences than do the performances of pro-

The head Of the Department Of Biol
ogy is Professor Aldrich, who is known
outside of the University and beyond
the borders Of Idaho as the author Of
the latest and authoritative work on
diptera, or two-winged flies, recently
published by the National Smithsonian
