THESE SHIPMENTS BRING THE
MONEY.

On Tuesday the Nezperce Rochdale
Co. shipped another car of hogs, this
time double decker carrying 1876
porkers. The consignment was made
to Fry 6 Co., Seattle, and the price
paid to the local farmers supplying
the hogs was $685.
Another shipment is being organized
for early delivery.
1t is an interesting fact that this
point is becoming one of the leading
produce markets in the prairie coun-
try. Egg shipments average from 25
to 35 cases per week and an increasing
number of cream cans is going out;
the output of cream already being in
excess of other prairie points. One day
recently 2900 pounds Of cream and
eggs went through the local station.

UNION GRAIN HOUSES AT
oRAIaMoNT IN ASHES.
Elevator and warehouses of Union
Warehouse q Commercial 90. and
$4,000 Bushels< Grain Burned
Last Night in Fire That
Threatmed Town.

The big elevator and grain storage
warehouses of the Union Warehouse
& Commercial Co., at Craigmont, COW
ering an area 60ox200 feet, were totaf-
ly destroyed by fire of unknown or
igin which started about 1880 0 'ciocg
last night apparently in coal bunk
er at the west end of the buildings.
1t was the greatest fire calamity fae
prairie ever experienced, and when
discovered was beyond any control of
the available fire-fighting equipment
The only fortunate thing about it was
there was no wind blowing, and by
the heroic efforts of the citizens the
spread to other parts Of the town could
be prevented The glare from the
monster blaze could be seen from all
parts of the prairie. Neighboring
towns were appraised of the disaster
by phone and delegation from each
was soon on the scene, ready to rem
der assistance. Nezperce sent over is
ear loads of people.
II is understood that the buildings
and equipment, which cost $4,000
were insured for $4,000. It is esti-
mated that about 10000 bushels of
grain, principally wheat, were on stor
age, and on the greater part of this
the owners carried insurance. II is
thought a portion of the grain can be
salvaged.
The institution was owned by the
farmers of our neighbor community
and was under the management of
Frank Baer. The loss comes at time
when it can be least borne, ana is
not only sad blow to the Craigmont
section, but to the entire county, and
is deplored by every good citizen.

First Holy Communion Services.

Holy Trinity Catholic church was
crowded to capacity last Sunday on
the occasion of the first Holy Com,
munion of the children. The ceremony
was very impressive and twice Rev.
Father Zuur addressed the children,
explaining to them in fatherly words
the great Importance of this day and
in which real happiness exists for here
and hereafter. After the services the
communicates and their pastor en-
loved fine lunch served by the good
Sisters. A picture of the children was
taken at Hart's studio after the
Youngsters had eaten enough of the
good things that abound on such an
occasion. Many of them came back to
the evening services to bring thanks to
the good Lord for the blessings OF this
great day.
Divine services will be held next
at O'Clock.

stood 8 to s; just the sort of melee
that keeps the fans on their toes and
saying things out loud till they
haven't voice enough left to kiss their
wives good bye next morning.
The braves took lead with two
scores in the first and were tied in
the second by the locals. Things went
blank till the fifth, when the In
