A REMEDY for flies and mosquitoes
is going the rounds, given by a
Southerner who says it is a sure shot.
1t is this: Burn gum campher on a
stove three times a day, and the
" skeet and the fly will never come
nigh. Now, if he'll tell us how to
induce the festive bedbug to hunt
another climate, this town will give
him a vote of thanks and trumpet his
name to fame. The hedbug gay is
a daisy bird; he roosts all day on
high; but when the shades of even
ing fall, down he'll crawl with blood
in his eye. Millions of him there
seem to be, and he holds high "rev-
elree," slipping the blood of human
itee," and to his roost DOH fly, wher
breaketh the dawn in the eastern sky
When the tortured victim ariseth il
his might, the bedbug cute, prepar
eth to scoot, then a quick, straigh
shoot he maketh, and skippeth out O
sight in the light of the candle dim
ere you can get hold of the hind leg.
of him. No remedy yet invented
can beat this bird SO sweetly scent

JOHN and Will Riordan were out

JOHN and Will Riordan were out
on the Thorn Creek ditch Monday
and Tuesday, to fight fire and keep
it away from waste gates, ETC., along
the ditch. The fire had burned a box
at one place. The boys scraped
trash from the vicinity of the gates
all along on the Thorn creek side, so
that there will be no danger of the
fire reaching there. They took a
shotgun and capturned nine grouse,
and could have killed fifty or sixty
if they had wanted them. The boys
presented the WORLD with three.
Deer have crossed the ridge by doz-
ems, keeping ahead of the fire. The
grouse do not move until the fire al
most scorches them.

WILEY Fox returned last Tuesday
from his visit in Iowa. Mrs. Fox
remained with Wlley's brother and

Ohio before she returns. This is
Wiley's first visit to his native State
since 1855. He found but very few
of his old acquaintances in the vicin-
ity of his old home. Wiley says a
heavy rain storm set in there Just as
harvesting commenced, and continued
necessarily for two weeks, then cleared
up for two or three days and again
renewed hos;ilities, pouring down
continually for week.

A FIRE that comes to big river,
reaches its flaming arms across,
catches hold on the other shore, pulls
itself across and marches on to Veto
ry, as the Middle Boise river fire did
the other day, is flaming daisy,
and will get along IN the world with
out any help, and nothing but the
wide opening of the flood gates of
heaven can check its onward career
and cool the ardor of its ambitious
destructiveness.

GEORGE ALEXANDER came over last
Tuesday from Middle Boise. George
and Tim O'Sullivan have been having
an interesting aud exciting time fight
ing fire to save the ranch. Timothy
took his stand most of the time on
the haystack, on which pine and fir
cones on fire dropped ever and anon.
They started back fire and succeed
ed in saving the ranch, which is now
the only green spot in that whole
section. The fire started down on
Middle Boise and has burned out a
section twenty miles square and is
still going. The flames shot across
the river, catching on the other side
as if it was small brook, and went
up the mountain side with the speed
of a horse. 1t had reached North
BOISE Tuesday, and George said i,
would cross without a doubt. He
says that is the boss of ali the fores,
fires he has seen.

HERE is every prospect Of the
medical professional, as it is to-day,
going" glimmering" down the road
that leads to that realm where the
creations Of arts and science are sent
whizzing when they have had their
day and higher forms have come to
take their places. The myth of the
fountain OF youth, we are assured,
had it actually existed, been found
and possessed the properties ascrlbed
to it, would be no more wonderful
i'll results than an elixir discovered
by DIR. Sequard, of Indianapolis. 1t
cures almost all ills, and brings back
youth to old age, if all that is said of
it is true. If it will do all this, and
In addition turn the hoary hairs of
age back to their original color, and
make hair grow thick on slick bald
head, it will prove to be the greatest
discovery of all ages, and DR.. Sc
guard will be voted a greater man
than Edison. 1t is said that it will
make an old man "just as young as
he used to be-" but if it simply brings
back all youthful feelings, agility,
etc., and mans gray locks and bald
head still loom up to mock at all
other forms of youthful beauty that
may be renewed, and tell of the
many, many years that he has waded
through, it is not a complete success;
but nevertheless, if it will accomplish
all that is claimed for it, it is won
derful discovery. But before placing
too much faith in the new elixir, it
will be well to await further develop
ments.

IDAHO News: A company of cap

from Snake river, below Market lake,
and run it to the foot bills east of Ea-
gle Rock, thence southerly towards
Basalt and Blackfoot. Mr.. Clark, the
engineer, thinks the survey will bring
it close to Blackfoot. A survey Of
twelve and one-half miles has been
made, and he has been ordered 20 ex-

This canal will reclaim all the lands

A GOOD story is told of Gov. Tom
Bennett, who presided over the desti-
nies Of Idaho more than decade ago.
A member of the Legislature, who
had been annoyed by his neighbor S
hog, introduced bill compelling the
owner of the prescribed animal to
keep him within the limits of pen.
The bill passed and went up to Gov.
Bennett for his approval. To the
surprise of the members, and the cha
grin of its sponsors, it was returned
with his veto. When asked for a
reason he exclaimed: ''I don't be-
lieve in the bill in the first place, and,
if | did, | wouldn't sign bill that
spelled hog with a big H, and Gov
ernor with little g. Idaho News.
Yes, that is a good story, but we
can't refrain from saying that the
introducer of the hog bill caught on
to the principle of the eternal fitness
of things, and in gazing at Gov.
Bennett and then at the hog, and
making a fair and square comparison,
saw that in linking the two names to-
gether, it would be a downright in
suit to the swine to place them on an
equality, so he spelled hog with big
H end Governor with a little g.
Considering the low qualities of gov.
b. and the highly elevated traits of
the hog, by comparison, we must say
that the Legislator caught on about
right.

JOHN BaowN, superintendent of the
Elmira company, has, since the big
body of ore was opened in the Crown
Point mine and proved to be extern
sive, informed his company of the
reed Of ffty-stamp mill. AS their
twenty stamp mill is of an old style,
pretty we'll dllapicated and of ca
pacity inadequate for present require
ments, it is very probable that the
company will put up a new mill of
fifty stamps, as Mr.. Brown has ad-
vised them to do. Messrs Fasset
and Preswick, members of the COM
pany who arrived at Banner the other
day, will see the necessity for a new
and larger mill, and the action of the
company will depend great deal on
the report of these gentlemen.

MEN have been out the past few

MEN nave Deen out the past IeW
days and nights fighting forest fires
one opposite Warm Springs and an
other south of this place. The lower
fire got away with twelve cords of
Farrell's wood, but BY hard fighting
the rest Of it, quite large amount,
was saved. The force dong battle
with the flames opposite this place
last Wednesday night gained a great
victory. A strip of fire running al
most to the summit of the mountain
was extingulshed.
LATER Yesterday afternoon, af-
ter the above was in type, Farrell's
wood all caught on fre-one hundred
and thirty cords-and there was NO
possibility Of saving it. Forty cords
have been hauled away since the fire
crossed the mountain few days ago
A pile of two hundred cords of Jo
Hills wood also burned yesterday
evening. John Pharriss, one of the
men who has been fighting the fire,
came to town yesterday evening, a
short time before we went to press.
John thinks it will be impossible to
save any of what remains of Hills
wood.

HEALEY's saw mill, at the head of
Shafer creek, was destroyed by fire
last Sunday morning, says the States
man. The hands were awakened be-
tween and 5 o'clock by the roaring
of flames. The fire seemed to have
originated near the big saw in the
opposite end of the mill from the fur
mace. Extra precaution had been
taken the night before to thoroughly
extinguish the furnace fires. About
10000 feet of excellent lumber was
destroyed. No theory as to the cause
of the fire has been settled upon.
The loss is heavy one for Mr..
Healey.

THERE is no doubt of the fact that
the constitution prepared for Idaho is
in many respects very able docu-
ment ard likely to meet with gener-
al approval. OF course it is impossi-
bic to prepare constitution which
will meet the approval of every class
and political faction. There are 80
many different measures which GER
tain classes advocate, and which
would only enure to their exclusive
benefit, that it is no easy matter to
frame constitution which will meet
with general appreciation. The mem
bers of the convention deserve I'M
qualified praise for the unanimity
with which they have conducted their
proceedings, and the admirable con-
stitution they have prepared for the
government Of Idaho. The question
regarding the admission of Idaho de-
pends largely upon the character of
the constitution, because if that doc
ument contains any provisions spe-
cially obnoxious to its enemies it
would be the means of arousing them
to state of active opposition, which
might prove fatal to the success of
the application for admission aud ne
cessitate the entire preliminary work
being again performed. The con-
vention was composed of able, repre-
sentative men, who have done their
work in manner which reflects credit
on all concerned.-[Pocate Repub-

The State Constitution for Idaho

THE State Constitution for Idaho
will be accepted with no opposition
worth considering seriously, if the
signs of the present can be relied
upon. All the newspapers of the
Territory, forty or more-with two or
three exceptions, are for Statehood
and the constitution as drafted by the
convention. The opposition papers
can give no good reasons for the
stand they take, and seem to be op-
posed to Statehood just for the pleas
ure there is in being contrary, and
they take great delight IN picturing a
big, overwhelming army of ambitious
politicians rising up and digging
vigorously for the pay chutes OF Off
cial positions, and we are assured that
some of them are bound to strike
paying leads of free milling ore,
which all will admit is fact. But
offices are necessity, and so long
as there are Offices there must be Off
cials, and SO long as there is a de-
mand for officials there will be a
large number Of patriots digging their
way for the pay that awaits those
who get there. If procrastination
would defeat this state of affairs, there
would be some reason in the opposi.
ton Of those who raise the cry of
political scheming," " statehood for
the benefit of hungry Office hunters, y
etc. Wait until any time from now
till Gabriel sounds his trumpet, and
this cry would be raised, and with
the same array of rustling place han
ters to point to for proof that Office
is the chief aim of many in their ad-
vocacy of Statehood. But remember
that with State government the peo-
pie have the say as to who shall serve
tn IN, while now our Territorial off
Gals are handed down to us without
consulting our wishes in the least.
Give us a State government aud home
rule in short, political freedom and
an advanced form of government
and potent influence and hand in
shaping national affairs.
