That Exhibit of Ours

G.. B. HURT, executive commissioner
for the idaho exhibit at the st. louis
and Lewis and Clark exhibitions, was
here Monday and was driven out to
Martin Vessels place on the Potlatch
to talk over the proposed agricultural
expositions. Mr.. Vessels is one of the
commissioners and Mr.. HURT natur-
ally desired to see him and talk over
matters. The executive commissioner
seems to be a bustling business man
and is going about his work in a sys-
tematic, careful manner that betokens
a fine exhibit for Idaho along all lines.
The mining exhibit of which it is pro-
posed to make the very best possible
is under the supervision of DR.. H. j.
Reed of Wallace, Idaho.
The Horticultural and Agricultural
display will be under the management
of Martin Vessels of this place and he
has been given carte blanche in the
matter. We shall naturally expect
one of the finest exhibits along this
line that Mr.. Vessels has as yet ar
ranged. The iumbermen of the state
have promised Mr.. HURT to donate
the lumber for the erection OF the Ida
no building and doubtless they will
take great. pride in giving of their very
best. Already the commission has
been offered use of private collections
of mineral, horticultural and agricult-
ural specimens. The amount of mon
ey appropriated by the state is S25, 900
of which large portion will be used
in preparing the exhibit, placing it on
the ground and maintaining it for the
time the exposition holds. The Idaho
building will have an architectural
beauty and arrangement that will be
unique and convenient. There will lie
an information bureau for the benefit
Of Idaho visitors; this bureau will ell
gage rooms and have all kinds of in.
formation as regards the fair, ready fol
the asking. Taking it all in all, the
planssfor the Idaho, exhibit are com.

prehensive and sensible, aiming tc
treat.every part of the state with equaI
consideration ana to set forth our re
sources north and south in the very
best manner. Mr.. HURT went from
here to Lewiston and from thence C
Grangeville to arrange for exhibits fol
Nez Perce and Idaho counties. Mr.
Vessels, also went to Lewiston where
he and Mr.. Hurtt laid further plan!
for the agricultural and horticulture
display.
Mr.. Vessels wishes it stated tha
those having samples should advis,
with him Immediately. All samples
should be marked with growers nam;
and place where grown. All prizes
medals and diplomas awarded will b.
sent directly to the winner.
We hope to give an article mex
week explaining this exhibit NOR
fully.

Fire Threatened Court House

Fire broke out this morning in the
rear of the Court House and for a time
threatened that building and the valu-
able records it contains. The fire origi-
mated in the frame outbuildings in the
rear OF the Court House, owned by Mrs.
Charles K. Morrow, of Baltimore, and
occupied by Henrietta Sims, colored.
How il originated is not known, but il Is
thought to have been caused by children
playing with matches.
The wood shed and chicken coop
which are near the fence of the Court
House were soon In a blaze and the
flames caught to the cellar window of the
Court House and leaped to the window
sill Of Judge Revell's private Office and
consulting room. which is in the rear OF
the building on the first floor. The
Judges room was threatened, but the
timely assistance OF the FIRE department,
which was quickly on the scene. and the
assistance Of the clerks and employees
about the Court House soon extinguish-
ed the hames.wilh slis ht damage.

The WelIs-Bannon faction have things
pretty much their own way, and have a
large following. while the Nutwell, Moss,
and Williams faction are identified with
what is known as the organization or

that the Wells Bannon faction will con-
troll the county this fall, and unless there
is compromise between the factions.
there will be doubts Of carrying the coun-

Bamboo grows in profusion, in clusters
to about forty feet in hight. Banana
trees grow to about the height OF twenty
feet. Each tree bears one bunch OF ban
anas. which, when ready for gathering.
is severed from the tree by one stroke OF
the machete. Another stroke cuts down
the tree and the debris Is cleared away.
Another shoot springs up in its place and
new plantations are laid out by planting
the shoots. Cocoa-nut palms grow TO
a height of about sixty-feet or more, but
seem to be more prolific at about thirty
or forty feet. Each palm will average
about seventy-five nuts year which net

Each coolie village or community is
governed by sirder or head man. whose
duty il seems to be to attend to all the
business OF the coolie villagers. He buys
all their pEovender and provisions and
sees that the cooking and eating OF same
is carried out strictly in accordance with
their religion. The "sirdeT" is usually
the most intelligent Of his caste and he
often uses his power In an autocratic
manner, even to the extent OF chastislng
and beating the refractory. The coohe
villages are very picturesque and are
scattered about the island. reminding one
OF the scenes at the Worlds Fair.
