Plans for what the commission con-

Plans for what the commission con.
sidered an ideal structure, modest
but in keeping with the dignity Of
the state, were drawn. The lowest
estimate made by Idaho builders
was $4,000. The executive COM
missioner and superintendent OF
structure found that they could not
let the contract in st. Louis for less
than 800, building material be-
ing excessively higher there. This
was 81, 500 more than the amount
originally contemplated for build
ing appropriation.
The Idaho commission is making
special efforts to present creditable
displays in mining, agricultural,
horticultural and educational de-
partments. The first mentioned
two are practically complete. Ida
hos mining exhibit will unques-
tionably be one of the best made
by any state. Her display in ag-1
riculture will be a source of won
derment to people living in other
states.
In the face of extreme difficulty
the commission has obtained one
car load of apples, which has been
shipped to St. Louis and placed in
cold storage. While the apples Sc
cured are OF splendid quality, it is
feared that the quantity is not suffi-
,ient to attract the attention that
he exhibit merits.
The commission is working ear
lestly to make a first-class exhibit,
,ut unless the funds at its disposal
AN be increased to near the amount

LAY will fall short of the ideal and

Making Up His Jewels

| AT two oo'clock last Monday morn
ing the Angel of Death entered the
happy home of Mr.. and Mrs. E. R.
Cheney and snatched from their
bosom the infant daughter, George,
twenty-three months old. For
three days previous the little one
had been in a precarious condition
from a complication of diseases and
little hope could be held out for its
flnal recovery. With fond parents
watching for even the faintest sign
OF Improvement, the Master whis-
pered and sweet smile appeared
on the baby's pale face. All was
over, for the little soul had return
ed to the God who gave it. Baby
Cheney was very happy and live
ly child and was lavish in the be-
stowal of her hearty laugh and
prattle-the life and enjoyment of
the home. The hearts of the par
ents and young sisters are torn be-
yond healing in the taking away of
George, and may the Great Com
forter breathe sweet words of con-
ISOLATION and peace into their troub-
led souls during these lonely days
that shall follow.

NEED MORE MONEY
The FAIR Commission Wants Cash
From Idaho People to Complete
Exhibit at st. Louis.
Boise, IDAHO, Dec. 80, 1903.

EDITOR THE JOURNAL:
The Idaho-St. Louis and Lewis
and Clark Fair commission, ap-
pointed by Governor Morrison tc
obtain and install the state exhibit
at these expositions, find at this
time, when necessary expenses may
be accurately determined, that the
appropriation made by the state
legislature for the exhibit at St.
Louis, is too small. Unless it can
be supplemented, as been done in
other states, by private suDscrip-
tions, the exhibit will be so limited
as to inadequate'y portray the
states capabilities. This, the Gov
ernor, other state officials, and the
commission, regret SO keenly that
they have decided to make an ap-
peal for additional funds by private
subscription.
Before the commission was or
ganized the individual members
thought that with the limited ap-
preparation, state building would
not be polite. The announcement
of this raised a storm of protest
throughout the state. 1t was said
that Idaho must not be the only !
state in the Union not represented |
by a state building. So vigorous
and unanimous was the sentiment
in favor of building that the COM
could not ignore it. 1t was
thought that perhaps expenses in
other directions could be so re-
duced as to admit Of an expendi- !
ture of 5000 for building that
wsuld be home for Idaho people !
