PULLMAN LANDLORD WILL
RETIRE FROM BUSINESS

After 16 years of hotel experience
in Pullman, Landlord A. H. Dawson
of the Palace hotel will retire at the
close of the present year and will
devote his time to less axacting voca-
tions. Mr.. Dawson came to Pullman
16 years ago next May and since that
time has engaged continuously in the
hotel business, opening the Palace in
its present quarters in 1908, after the
old Palace had burned to the ground.
Just what disposition will be made of
the hotel building when Mr.. Dawson
retires is not known. The building is
in the hands of the legatees of George
Bloomfield who constructed it, and
it is said that it is impossible to Sc
cure lease on the building, but that
it can be purchased, though there is
some doubt as to the clarity of the
title The chamber of commerce has
named special committee to keep in
touch with the situation and to avert
the possibility Of Pullman being left
without a hotel.-Pullman Herald.

fire DESTROYS
A. R. STANLEY HOME
MIDNIGHT BLAZE COMPLETELY
RAZES NORTH JEFFERSON ST.
RESIDENCE LAST NIGHT.

FIRE last night completely destroyed
the frame residence owned and occu-
! pied by A. r. Stanley at 324 North
JeHerson street, causing a loss of
more than $4,000. The fire started
from an overheated stove located in
the front room, and was not noticed
until such headway had been gained
that it was impossible to do anything
toward saving the building.
Mr. Stanley was first awakened at
ABOUT quarter to one, the fire hav-
ing evidently been going for some
time, as the house was by then all
ablaze. Mr.. Stanley was unable to
take anything from the burning struc-
ture, even his clothing being lost to-
gether with a small sum of money
which he had in the house at the
time.
The house and furniture were Gov
cred to the extent of 1920 by insur-
ance, which will not nearly cover the
loss entailed by the fire. Mr.. A. r.
Stanley was living in the house at the
time by himself, his family being
away on visit. When discovered
the entire structure was wrapped in
names, and the roof of the adjoin-
ing house owned by Mr. King had
caught fire. All efforts by the fire
men to save the Stanley structure be-
ing useless, attention was given to
preventing the spread of the flames,
and the blaze on the adjoining build
ing was quickly extinguished
A quick run to the scene of the
conHagration was made by the local
fire department. The fire fighters
were considerably handicapped by the
almost zero weather, which made
their work extremely difficulty and
strenuous. A big factor in the effic-
lent work of the firemen was the fact
that the night was comparatively
still as had their been a breeze of
any magnitude, it is doubtful whether
the adjoining residence could have
been saved from serious damage.

TWO HARD GAMES
FACING MOSCOW
IDAHO FRESHMEN TONIGHT,
CHARLESTON HIGH TOMORROW,
MAKE FANS HERE ANXIOUS,

The Moscow high school gymnasium
will be the scene Of two fast and haro
fought basketball games tonight and
tomorrow evening, when the local
| high school men meet the University
| of Idaho freshmen and the Charleston
high school squads. The game to-
might is scheduled witTNthe freshmen
and promises to be one of the best
games to be seen here this season.
The game tonight will start at eight
io'clock. Buck" Hunter, well known
local arbitrator, will be referee.
A glance at the records of the two
teams which will tangle tonight shows
them to be practically on an equal
plane, with the advantage, if there is
any, resting with the college men.
Both teams have gone through the pre-
sent season with a large percentage
of victories over the best hoopsquads
in the Inland Empire.
Out For Blood.
Tomorrow's game will probably be
one of the deciding games of the sea-
son, when the Charleston cage artists
will attempt to retaliate for the one
point victory which the Moscow high
men achieved on the Charleston floor
some time ago, "a to 23. Charleston
has beaten the Walla Walla five on two
different occasions, while the local
men had considerable difficulty in
gaining one win after an extremely
hard fought contest from the Wa-Hi
quintet.

ALTHOUSE CONCERT
ATTRACTS PATRONS
MOSCOW MUSIC LOVERS SHOW
ING INTEREST IN COMING AP-
PEARANCE OF YOUNG TENOR

Patrons of Metropolitan musical of
ferings in Moscow are taking more
than passing interest in the an
nOuncement that Paul Althouse
dramatic tenor of the Metropolitan
Opera company of New York City
will give a concert in the University
auditorium in Moscow on Tuesday
evening, February IS.
For nine successive seasons Alt
house has taken stellar roles in Met
ropolitan Opera House productions,
and during that time has established
for himself an enviable reputation as
one of Americas most talented young
tenors. Hardly over thirty, he has
achieved a standing in musical cir
cles that rarely come to artists ten
years his elder.
Returns From Australia
He has recently returned from an
extended tour of Australia in com
pany with Arthur Middleton, bari
tone, who appeared here last year,
and who will be remembered as one
OF the most accomplished artists who
has ever appeared in concert here
The program for the local concert
is said to be the best that has ever
been attempted by singers appearing
here. 1t will include both the more
classical numbers and those having
a popular appeal. Several of his Sc
lections are said to require a rare
degree of skill in execution, and Mos
COW music lovers are being urged not
to miss this opportunity of hearing
one of the nations foremost tenors.
Reserved seats are being sold for
one dollar at Hodgins drug store.
