Kate CIax,on I'm the "Two Orphans

The Two Orphans" was given last
night at the Opera House by Miss CIsx-
tons fine company. Miss Claxton has
not only no rival in the part of Louise,
but she has also none in the line of the
drama she has adopted. The company is
powerful one, and with the support of
Miss Lillian Clark as Hsnriette and Mr.
&. A. Stevenson in the double part Of
Vaudrey and Pierre Frochard, to Miss
Clsxton's Louise, we can safely say that
there is nothing in the way of an emo
tionsl drama now being played IN the
country That can equal the 1.-TWO Or
phsns' with this cast. The dressing OF
the ladies was remarkably rich, and in
most exquisite tsste. Miss Clsxton sp.
pears tonight (her last appesrance) as
Giiberte in "Frou Frou." The sudiel ce
last night was one OF the largest that mas
been gathered in the Opera House for
long time, and the play WAS undoubtedly
success pecuniarily.

THE TRAPPER OF 1914.
. lrapper who Camped on East Hill While in
inc service Of the Hudson Bay Company.

1t IS supposed BY many that the
nrst white man visited Boise Basin in
1861, but they are mistaken. A
Frenchman, whose name we did not
learn, camped a few hundred Yards
above where Idaho City now stands,
ON East Hill, several years, beginning
in 1914. He was a trapper for the
hudson Bay Company, and knew of
nobody having visited the country be-
fore him. The Indians were the only
companions he had to cheer his lonely
home of the forest. The winters were
very changeable-as much as six and
seven feet of solid snow would some
times remain for many months, and
some winters there would be but little.
The second or third year during the
trapper's stay not more than one inch
of snow lay on the ground at any one
time.
He knew there was gold in both
Elk and More creeks, but whether in
paying quantities he did not know
He would be astonished if he could
raise from his eternal sleep and see
the vast amount Of ground that has
been worked, and being worked; moth
ing but stumps left where he set his
traps in the thick forest for the fox anc
mink; the low creek bottoms where hi
found the beaver filled with tailing'
eightyor ninety feet deep; the hunting
grounds of the Indian occupied by thu
white man, and the game frightet
away by the shrill whistle of tn
quartz mill. Time has wrought won
derful changes, indeed, during the las
thirty-two years, and many and grea
changes will take place in years t

to find some other means of obtaining

ditch dug for the purpose last fall.
The whole length of the pipe will be
