ho'ji..
The W. J. Townley ranch
near Hot Lake, variously estlr.w.' as
worth $1200, was1 destroyed by ii.e at
o'clock last evening.
The house was Insured for $500.
The origin- of the fire. Is not known,
though thought to be a defective flue.
Mr. Woolever occupied the hous,
having leased the large ranch and tilt
house on It. . ,
The best Is none too good, Is the mot.o
xwhlch actuate Mr. Parsons In select
ing his program. Remember the ma
tinees Saturday and Wednesdays.
At the. Steward.
"Little Johnny Jones," the musical
comedy play by Geo.' M. Cohan, which
has made one of the greatest successes
of recent years, will shortly be pre
sented In this city by a company of 75
people, Including a specially selected
cast and a chorus which Is spoken of
as one of the largest and most effi
cient In America. This engagement Is
regarded by our theatergoers aa one
of the most Important events of the
theatrical season, and If Indications do
not fait It will attract a large and fash
ionable audience. At the Steward
Thursday, December 17. .
Thev Pastime..
Though there was only a medium
sized crowd out to see the new change
at the Pastime last evening, Is only to
say that there were a great many
who missed the best program put on
for some time. ' The picture, "A Dusl
Life," is one of the best of Its kind ever
put on a curtain. This subject was
taken from life, and Is one that points
a strong moral and cannot fall to ap
peal to every honest man and woman.
A Ragged Hero Is a real drama, Vith
a hero. This picture surrounds the
beautiful -daughter of a millionaire,
who has befriended a poor little wolf
In time of need and who In his turn
has a chance to prove" his gratitude.
The villain plays a prominent part, but
:. -t last outwitted. The Football
.nd recounts the adventures of an
enthusiastic football rooter Iri-hls ef
forts to see a big game of football viv
idly slvon' in a whirlwind of con:.!:
situations. Don't fall to see this pro
gram tonight. Remember, all next
iveek the famous quartet at the Pastime.
MORE FAKK MONEY.
Next Buxkctball Game and Skating
ltinli Receipts for l'ark Fund.
There is evidence of boost for the
park fund from every corner. Next
Friday night the second game of the
high school basketball series will be
given with the understanding that half
the proceeds go to the park. Abcve
that, the managers of the skating rink
are r'ng to donate half the skating
receipts after the game, for the same
purpose. If the same class of basket
ball is put up next Friday night that
was seen last evening, the public will
help a geod cause along, and In turn
receive some value for their liberality.
Cai of Tlianks.
I hereby wish to give expression of
my sincere appreciation for the kind
ness extended to me by my Ktnu
friends and neighbors In the late' oe-
reavement of my dear wife.

the house will receive the benefit of
this extra set this evening. The
films are entitled "Her Flowers" and
"The Magic Handkerchief." These are
both new films, having been released
but a few days. Three new faces will
be seen in vaudeville next week. They
come from Ogden. They are known
as. the Atkinson Brothers, and are
recognized as the best comedy team
on the road. Lou Dunbnr, the well
known German comedian, . will come
here from Boise, where he has be-M!
making good for the past two weeks.
Business was good last evening and
there is every reason to believe thit
even more will visit this popular play
house this evening.
