Foot Ball Oct. Il.

The local foot ball season viii
open on Saturday. Oct. IA when the
husky high school bunch from Guide
sac will meet the Nezperce high
school eleven on the gridiron in this
city. It has been the habit Of our
boys to take most everything they
wanted from their friends at the foot
of the hill, but this year, you know,
Culdesac has a swell, new school
house, Of which the folks down there
arc justly proud, and they are going
to send up a team which they ex-
pect to sustain this pride. It ought
to be a good game.

The large and substantial home Of
Mr.. and Mrs. F. c. Brash in the
north part of town vas totally de-
stroyed by ere between o:30 and
10 80 p. m. last Friday.
The family vas absent from home
when the ERE started. Mr.. and Mrs.
Brash having come down to spend
the evening and Clarence being ia
volImer, and the Interior Of the
house vas practically envelcped in
flames befor II vas discovered. By
the time people begun to arrive on
the scene there vas no chance 10
save either the building or any Of
lis contents, and the attention Of the
fre fighters was directed to neigh
boring structures, and the FIRE vas
prevented from spreading.
This Is said to have been one Of
the best houses in town and was well
furnished, and the loss falls heavily
on the aged owners. However, they
had some six weeks since taken out
$500 insurance on Il. which will
cover a considerable portion Of the
money loss involved.
The origin Of the ere is unknown,
but It is supposed to have started
from an overhealed stove, in which
a ar. had been left burning.
