HARTMAN'5 By ELECTRICITY
The Great Hall q Scene Of Surpsss-
ing Brilliancy.

ing Brilliancy.
Hartman's hall was illuminated last
evening tor the first time by the
clear, strong light OF electricity.
More than half \ thousand incAndes-
cent lights cleaned from balcony, truss,
arch, cornice and column, and shed
their radiant beams throughout the
vast auditorium. The ceilings were
studded with the brilliant gems and
shone with the splendor Of the stars.
Every nook and corner of the hall was
set with rare exotics. and the great
floor space was vivid with q moving
panorama of fashionable society.
Wurzburg's band was stationed upon
the stage and added zest and charm 10
the enlivened scene by discoursing
melody. In front of the great stage
the newly built fountain, resplendant
in q mantet of ferns and flowers, added
its charm to the pleasant environ.
ment. The hall Was thronged
by vast gathering of patrons, which
tested it's utmost capacity. Fully
1000 guests visited the delightful place
last evening alone. Seated 1t the dainty
little tables, standing about the soda
water fountains or gathered here and
there in social discourse, the gathering
presented q scene Of beauty and activ.
ity. The place has now become the
great resort for pleasure seekers upon
the sultry nights, and as the season ad-
vances Its patronage will grow apace.
For next week an especial program
will be rendered by the orchestra and
the menu cards will be changed.

S. KUNz, the Amsterdam diamond
expert, who visited the Idaho dia-
mond field, was interviewed on his
return by Statesman reporter, and
he pronounced the geology of the
country around the diamond fields
precisely the same as in South At
rican fields, and not unlike the fields
of Brazil, only not as much broken
up. He thinks the Idaho diamond
fields will be larger than those of
either Africa or Brazil, the blow cuts
or shafts being a great deal larger
and more clearly defined. The chin.
news of the volcanoes show that the
same process has taken place in tbs
formation of this country as occurred
in the other fields mentioned. Kuni

DIR. Sawyer has discovered good
placer diggings on the head of the
Bruneau, stream that empties into
Snake river about twenty miles south
Of Mountain Home. This is known
20 the prospector as the Bruneau
country. The doctor spent all his
time last summer in exploring this
region to determine the value of the
dirt in placer belt on which he had
taken an option. He found the earth
very rich, turning out from two to 20
cents per pan of the precious metal,
and it was not unusual to pick up
nuggets worth $25. There Is = large
stream that empties into Snake river
which affords plenty of water, and
fall of 1000 feet can be had for ny
draulics. There is ten mile ditch
and 1000 inches Of water. Two mer

A writer in the Salmon City Re.
corder contends It great length that
the number of deer and mountain
sheep destroyed by hunters Is very
insigni6cant compared with those
killed by cougars and other noxious
animals. He points out that in GER
tain canyon Of only twelve miles in
length in Lemhi coanty there are
twelve cougars and demonstrates that
their annual destruction Of deer and
sheep will aggregate about 1900 per
year. The writer is ! prospector who
understands every foot Of land in
L~mhi county aud gives details that
hear out the propositions he makes.
He says the cougar and lynx disdsiu
such small prey As rabbit. and seek
only the deer and sheep unless i,
should come across some domestic
animals like the calf. The writer
proposes that hountics be offered fol
the skins of mountain lions killed
within the State ~ it would tend Il
preserve the deer, elk, moose, biso,
and other game more than all th.

The bounty, he thinks, should be .

reasonable sum. Vermont and som,
other New England States give :
high as twelve dollars for the killing
Of bear and twenty for disposing il
