CAMP IHATEToLEAVIT BURNS.
Finely Equipped Structure Destroyed
BY Fire. Sunday Night.

The fine. large. Well-equipped camp
on MeGraw pond, about seven miles
from this city. owned by c. b. Kelle-
her and Joseph f. Iashus was burned
to the ground. Sunday night Just
what caused the fire will probably nev-
er be known but II is supposed that
some member of the party which spent.
Sunday, at the camp threw a lighted
cigarette where it set fire to the
woodwork or some waste paper in a
corner. Mr.. LashHs and a party of
friends spent the day at the camp but
left for home, just before dark. The
fire was discovered about s o'clock
and as soon as possible Mr.. keileher
was notified. He went out in his au-
tomobile but the building was prac-
ticallv burned flat when he arrived
ana it would have been impossible to
attempt to save anything. All that
remains now is the chimney, a few
wires from the piano and Jumps of
metal to show what were once a talk
ing machine, guns and other sporting
articles.
Comp Ihatetoleavit was probably as
Iicely furnished and well equipped a
t..4g a. mere WIS in this section of
the State The owners built on the
site first about 10 years ago and since
that time have added on to the build
ing and have been adding to the fur
nishingS Of the interior. Beside the
piano and talking machine there We're
two guns, several roVolvers and sup
ply of fishing tackle which, it is said,
was worth over 500. Many of the
articles burned can never be replaced
as they were gifts from friends. The
building itself is estimated to have
been worth about $500 and the fur
nishings considerably more. There
was insurance of 5000 on the place
including everything. 1t was indeed
lucky that there has been a rain re-
Gently otherwise there is no doubt but
that the stable nearby and the motor
boat would also have been burned be-
side the fire spreading through the
woods Messrs. Kelleher and Lashus
are undecided at the present time
whether they will build again or not.

NEXT YEARS CAPTAIN.
Middies Will Have Touch Proposition
In Making Choice OF DaItons

With only two substitutes from this
years team remaining in the Acad-
envy as first classmen next year, the
MILDLY football players will have a
tough proposition in selecting their
captain for next years eleven.
In the election Of a captain the
Middies will be confronted by an
unusual situation, in that the prevail
ing rule is to select first classman,
whereas not one of the varsity
eleven is member of the first class,
Cochran and Hall, two substitutes,
are about the only men in that class.
Dalton, Weems. Hamilton and Wake
man will graduate.
Rodes, fullback, rates as a first
classman but at the beginning of the
present academic term he was COM
PEELED to join the next lower class be-
cause of loss of time through sick
ness, so that he will be second class
man next year. Brown, Howell Red
man, Gilchrist, Nichols and McReavy,
all will be members of the same
class, and as the rule of selection
will necessarily have to be abrogated
it will be possible to choose any of
these for the captaincy.
