Life Is so full of miseries, minor and

every step of the way, that 1t is hardly
worth while to call one anothers at

do this are merely dwelling

FIRE DESTROYS
HOME IN DELLONA


The home of William Schulze in
Dellona has burned to the ground.
The nearest neighbor, Charles Maske,
discovered the fire eating it's way
around the chimney at o'clock at
night, and at once notified the family
by telephone Seven children were
sleeping up stairs and were called
down, escaping without any difficulty.
The kitchen roof went in about the
time the members Of the family were
getting out, and the blaze burned so
quickly that but little furniture was
saved. The surrounding neighbors
were notified by telephone and hur-
ried to the scene, giving valuable aid
in saving the other buildings. The in
surance amounts to $500. The family
has taken refuge in the granery un-
til another house can be constructed.

LETTER FROM The
FRONT IN TEXAS
SOLDIERS SEE THE BARNUM a
BAILEY SHOW-HAVE NEW
TENTS-FOOTBALL ONE
OF THE GAMES

The following letter has been re-
ceived from one of the members OF
Company A, in camp at Camp Wilson:
Friday morning we had practice
hike, going about ten miles. We LEFT
camp at o'clock, returning about
1870. The practice hikes don't seem
so long any more, but when we first
came, ten miles seemed like a hun
dred. 1t started to rain Friday morn
ing and hasn't stopped yet, this. being
Tuesday morning. The. mud is a foot
deep all over camp. When the weather
is like this all we do is lay around or
have frst-aid school, giving everyone
a chance to apply one or more band
ages for different wounds. The most
of us have filled our ticks with straw
and put them on our cots, whieA
makes it much better sleeping, and
also warmer We have been givem
new tents to replace the old ones.
The Barnum & Bailey circus showed
here Saturday, October IA, and as that
was inspection day we had the after
noon off, so we all went to the show,
which was very good. We saw Joha
Ward and Guy Brandt, of Baraboo,
who are with the show. A few days
ago Texas and Oklahoma played foot
ball at San Antonio, and we were alss
given that day off. Texas won IA To-
6.
