Lyttleton Price, Jr., improvised q
characteristic Goddess of Idaho
He stood in an old road cart, which
was drawn by two donkeys, answer
ing to the names of jim La,imer and
George Stove.
There were several other more or
less humorous rigs in the procession
all of which were rendered strikingly
visible by an abundance of bunting.
Tho train brought up about 100
passengers from below; but there were
hundreds of residents of Ketchum,
Bullion, Deer Creek, Scoky, Csmas
Prairie and other localities, who came
in their own conveysnces.
Several Indians from the Fort Hall
Reservation were in town. One Of
them ian his horse in the races. He
rode without pantaloons-only in a
shirt and bseech-clout-and caused a
sensation AMONG the ladies'. On
leaving the track bis wife mounted a
pony. her 90 or 100 pound boy jumped
astride the same, in front of his
mother, and the buck climbed the
same animal, back Of his wife. The
wife held the reins and boy, and her
old man held on to her with Que hand,
leading his running horse with the
other. General Winters says this is
the only mistake he made. He
should have made his mahala lead the
other horse. besides doiog all she did.

WOOD RIVER TIMES
HALEY. IDAHO.
THE LATEST.

In New York City and elsewhere
through the country times are getting
easier.
The West is repaying some of the
advances made by New York banks,
and loaning rates are getting easier.
The worst Is evidently over, but
the list Of failures must continue
large for some time. owing to the
forced lieuidations caused by the
panic.
Secretary Carlisle seems disposed
TO profit by the panic to force silver
down as far as he can. Ho has SO far
refused to buy any silver on July &C.
count.
1t turns out that there are only
100000 ounces Of Stree" silver in
New York; and that 1t is BY judi
cious handling of the certificates
issued in payment of them that the
price of silver was forced down to 60
cents.
As the smelters, mines and mills
have either been closed altogether or
are worked on reduced time, it see ms
likely that, were the Sherman law to
continue IN force, the visible supply
Of silver would soon be exhausted,
and the price be greatly enhanced.
Reports of Shutdown, partial or
comulete, and OF reductions in wages,
continue to come from all the mining
regions of the United States.

A POPULAR FEATURE,

The bagpipes proved the most at.
tractive feature of the procession to
many. AS the column moved, Bag
piper Frazer followed in the rear.
Presently two or three citizens fell in
behind him. As others standing on
the sidewalks noticed the jolly crowd
they fell in, until hundreds OF citizens
were endeavoring to keep step to the
harmony of the bsgpipes. They
found that . difficult matter, but
made very merry over it.
At the race track the exercises took
place according to the program usual
on such occasions. Judge Stock
slayer presided with his usual suavity.
Major John read the Declaration Of
Independence-in rather too low
tones, however-ani Judge Sullivan
delivered twenty>minute address,

A Russian Dog Which Goes Into
Hypnotic frances.

All ST. Petersburg has gone wild over
something new, dog which goes off into
hypnotic frances. This remarkable animal
belongs to NJ. Durov. was awarded a gold
medal by the Paris Academy Of Science for
his original investigation and discoveries in
the science of hypnotism as applied to ami
mails and its effects upon them. Several
tests have been made of the animal in the
presence of no less a Iers0n than DIR.
Afanasiev of the War Department One
of the tests consisted in placing several
articles. as a pencil, cigar-case, handker-
chief, cuff button, etc, on the floor. Then
the dog, having been thrown into hypnotic
trance by him. NJ. DurOy requested one of
the audience, which consisted also Of several
other phys OF renOwn and some news
paper men, to think about something and
what the dog was to do with il, then to write
it out on piece of paper and show it to the
rest OF the audience, excepting, of course,
himself. This was done, and, the dog
having been brought In, what was the
astonishment of the whole assembage to
see the animal 60 up to the eigar-case, pick
II no and bring it to the one who had been
indicated in the wish. Another test con-
sisted In laying several cubes with figures
on them in a certain order in a closed box.
At the same time several pieces of paper
were put upon the floor bearing like
numbers on each. The dog was then
called in and required 10 place the
pieces of paper in the same order as the
cubes were laid in the closed and sealed
box. This be did. TO the astonishment of
all assembled. The stranReness of the
remembered that NJ. Duroy knows no
more about what is being done or wished
than does the dog, and is, therefore, en-
tiFely unable IN any way to prompt him.

Brooklyn Chronicle.
The death OF the Rev. Thomas Edward
Vermilye, who for fifty years was chaplain
of the New York St Nicholas Society, re-
calls An incident in which well-known
Brooklyn man and Chauncey NJ. Depew
figured.
DR.. Vermilye had for many years spoken
to the toast Holland" at the annual dinner
of the organization named. Some eleven
years ago, and on the morning of the day
set for the banquet he was taken i'll. and
notified the dinner committee that be would
be unable to make his wonted oration.
At 4 o'clock on the same day Derew en-
tered the office of John A. Nichols, at II
Broadway. New York. wearing a worried
expression and perspiration bedewed
forehead.

and don't expect me to talk to you. just

That's all want you to do"
Mr.. Nichols did as requested, and the
pair did not exchange word until
Twenty-thlrd street vas reached, at 5:15
p. NJ.
"Thankee," said Depew as he parted with
his friend; II guess Pm all right"
At 1880 p. NJ. the first thing that the eye
OF Mr.. Nichols met. rs he sat down at the
dinner table, was the bland, unruffled,
smoothly shaven face of Depew. The
speech he made later is yet delightful ira

When stepped in silence both are nearing home
With dOwncast eyes and hearts too full to weep ?

And waste our waiting o'er the buried deadf

Young Wasps Fried.
London Table.

Young wasp gTuDs fried In butter do not
at first sight appear to be the most allurlng
dish in the world, yet they have been pro-
nounced delicious by those hardy expert
menters who have tried them. Fed as they are
upon the sweetest juices drawn from fruits
and tlowars, they naturally possess a deli
cate flavor. Perhaps the best way to pre-
pare them is To bake them in the comb.
Incidental to experiments conducted by
Government experts respecting the edible
qualities OF insects. number OF trials were
made OF a beverage particularly novel,
which might be termed "ant-ade."
few hundred ants were crushed at a
time in mortar with pestle and the H.
quid from them, after being stained, was
mixed, just like lemon-iuice, with water and
sugar. The resulting beverage resembles
lemonade so closely as to be scarcely dis
tiBguishable from Ii.
The reason why is very easy to explain.
Formie acid Is the nearest approach to citric
acid known TO the chemist. In fact, there
is little difference between them.
