FAVOR OLD STYLE FOOT BALL

The report comes from central
California that many high and pre-

in favor of the old style foot ball.
The American Foot Ball associa-

have a foot ball field of their own

was an occurrence that William
Conner, of Greenhurst, this county

the house. The seat of the chair
split and closed again. catching

be broken before he could be re-

Everyone at the table felt the
shock, and the house was consid

NEW YORK, Aug. 1s.-Mrs
Helen Reimers, believing that she

Mrs. Reimers and her husband

dissatisfied and planned to get a
position as teacher.

Hypotheek put it down to around

Can Raise Fine Hogs.

When it comes to raising good
hogs we doubt if there is any
farmer in this vicinity who can
give any pointers to H. G. Ecker
mann, residing east of town.
Mr.. Eckermann always has some
fine hogs fattening and they
always bring a fancy price when
he sells them. Last week he
sold SO head of the Duroc-Jersey
breed to Fred Moberg and the
entire bunch a averaged 1884,
pounds in weight, one of the
animals weighing an even coo
pounds. The price paid for them
was 81 cents a pound, which
brought the owner in the neat
sum of more than $24O0. Hogs
are the real mortgage lifters and
the farmer who raises them will
always have money in the bank.

STOCK TRAIN
IN A WRECK
uenesee Freight Crashes Into the
Stock Train at Pullman and
Mains and Scalds Men Asleep
in the CaboOse.

johnnie Baer and Fred Moberg
shipped out another full train of
stock from the prairie Tuesday
morning, the train containing 19
cars OF hogs and 2 of cattle, 8
cars of hogs being shipped from
this place. On account of the
heavy load an extra caboose and a
helper engine were attached to
the train going up the Kendrick
hill and they went through with
the train to Pullman. While the
train was standing at the cross
ing at Pullman in the night a
freight train from Genesee crash
ed into it and forced the helper
engine and empty caboose into
the caboose in which the men
accompanying the stock train
were sleeping. Caught without
warning, the men were pretty
badly bruised and injured in the
wreck and were also severely
scalded by the steam and hot
water from the wrecked engine.
The men occupying the caboose
were the two Long boys of Ferd-
inand, a man from Grangeville,
one from Clearwater, Mr..
Williams, of the Farmers Union,
and a buyer for Frye, Bruhn &
Co., of Seattle. One of the Long
boys sustained a broken arm and
others had legs broken and were
injured in other respects, but
fortunately none were killed.
The injured were at once placed
in the hospital and given medical
attention and some of them will
probably soon be around again.
But for the fact that Mr.. Baer
and John Eimers, of Grangeville,
who were accompanying the
train, got off at Kendrick and
took the passenger they would
also have been in the wreck.
