Opening of New Opera House.

Frequently people wonder why
one play makes a success and an
other a failure, more especially
when the unsuccessful production
seems the superior of its more fa-
vored contemporary. The secret
lies in this: While the play that
has failed to make good has the
greatest literary merit, it lacks the
necessary requirements to make 1t
palatable to the masses. The au-
thor has sacrificed the taste of the
public at the shrine of art, and fail
ure is his penalty. Herein lies the
strength of Elmer Walters success

ever since.
At the time of the trouble the
Andersons claimed that Hampton
came to their house, drew his gun
and threatened to kill them; which
threat, subsequent proceedings
show, he failed to execute.
Perky & Blaine, of Boise, are at
torneys for plaintiff.
Attorney Green, who wassthen
and is now county attorney, says
he moved dismissal because he
had personal knowledge of the cir
cumstances connected with the case,
and knew that a conviction could
not be secured; that the testimony
given at the preliminary trial and
which would have been repeated in
the district court, could have been
impeached. He says further that
the incidents leading up to the
trouble were of dirty character,
all of which will probably be
brought out in the civil suit.

HAMP TON SUES ANDERSONS
FOR DAMAGES ON OLD SCORE

Tuesday there was filed with the
clerk of the district court here the
complaint in the case of ]. II.
Hampton versus A. and Amelia
Anderson, man and wife, of Dixie,
asking for $4,000 damages. The
complaint recites that in March
1905 the defendants beat him up,
tied him to a tree for several hours
and kept him prisoner at their
place in Dixie. A few days later
they had him arrested on the charge
Of assault with a deadly weapon and
placed in Jail here. He was bound
over to the district court in the
sum of $500. When the case came
up for trial it was dismissed on
motion of the county attorney.
Hampton alleges that while tied to
the tree he was exposed to inclen-
ent weather, caught severe cold,
which developed into chronic lung
trouble, from which he has suffer ed

Worthless State Lands.

At the request of the capitol
building commission E. L. Marvin,
special agent for the state land
board, has thoroughly investigated
the conditions Of the lands selected
in the 30, 600 acre grant some years
ago for the public building purposes
and he reports that about 5000
acres of the land selected shows
upon examination to be practically
worthless-or nearly one-fourth cf
the land selected. The worthless
land lies in the vicinity Of Occur
d. Alene river. The .eport was
asked for by the commission with
an idea Of ascertaining If there
was any timber on the land that
might be sold. MIR. Marvin re-
ported that there was no timber
on the land that could be sold-no
timber that was salab1e al any
price. Statesman.

PLANS OF THE HOT
SPRINGS SANITARIUM
ArChiteCturd|y Handsome Structure of
Native Stone With all Con-
venienCes toCOSt 5000

DIR. Nicukirk has received the
plans and Specifications for the
sanitarium which his company
will erect at the hot springs, eight
miles from Mountain Home. The
plans were drawn by T. E. Towlel-
lette g. Co., architects, of Boise.
The building will be II by 1870
feet in size, two stories high, and
will contain so bedrooms, besides
reception rooms, parlors, dining
room, innumerable private bath
rooms and glass covered apart
ment in which to take sun baths.
1t will be a stone building, the
material being quarried on the
ground, there being an excellent
quality of building stone on the
property owned by the company
and near the site selected for the
sanitarium. The building will cost
$50,
The plunge bath will be 100 ty
400 feet, constructed in natural
reservoir site, by building dam
less than 100 feet in length. Un-
limited depth can be attained by
building the dam to any desired
height Earth from the sides win
be scrapcd off to bed rock and the
bottom will be partly Of cement,
near the dam, and the remainder
of white sand
Hot water from the springs will
be forced to all parts of the build
ing by hydraulic ram. Gravity
will carry it TO the plunge bath.
The grounds viii be improved
and beautified with lawns, shade
trees and flowers, a skilled land
scape gardner being in charge of
the work. The surrounding hills
will be planted to forest trees, the
company receiving the cooperation
of the government forestry depart
ment, that has already taken up
this work, by establishing two
nurseries in this state.
The road from here to the Springs
will be put in excellent, condition
and large omnibus automobile
put on the route. The actual work
of construction will be commenced
some time during the fall.

ATLANTA PROPERTY
SELLS FOR $4,000
Old Petit Mine Taken Over by the
Bagdad-Chase Company, of
Rochester n, Y.

1t is difficult to save the values.
Near the surface the ore was oxi-
died, and the values were easily
recovered, but after little depth
had been gained the character OF
the ore became such that it could
not be treated by the old methods,
and, like the other Atlanta proper
ties, the mine entered into a period
of non-production that has continued
until this time.
The problem has been solved,
however. 1t has been determined
that high percentage of saving
can be made by a combination pro-
cess. This will be amalagmation,
concentration and cyaniding, the
latter process being resorted for the
tailings. The concentrates will be
treated on the ground by cholrina-
tion.
1t is important to have such a
property taken hold of and put in
the producing class. The demon
stration that will be afforded of
the feasibility of handling these
ores to advantage will add to the
new life of the camp. The Mon
arch has solved the problem sstis-
factorily, and the Minerva is also
doing we'll So, with the Petit
coming into the class of profitable
production, the future of Atlanta
will be assured, since the fact that
the problem of recovering the val
ues on three such properties has
been solved is a guaranty that all
the ores of the district can be re-
duced satisfactorily.
1t is also important to have such
a company come into the state.
That company is operating a great
property at Barstow, Cal. It has
been made a great success under the
management of Mr. Darlington.
The company has other properties,
and has now come into Idaho to
take hold Of some of the opportuni-
ties here. 1t is also prospecting a
placer property in the vicinity of
Lardo, and may determine to take
hold of that also. Statesman.

This the Great Beet Growing Section.

E. ]. Merrill, a former resident
of Boise now living at Nampa, was
visitor among Boise friends yes
terday. Mr.. Merrill is connected
with the beet sugar company, he
being an expert in the growing of
beets as well as in handling them.
He is thoroughly posted on condi-
tions elswhere, and when he said
yesterday that "this section is the
best beet growing country in the
world, - it was no idle boast, but
was the opinion of a conservative
man who knew whereof he spoke.
Mr.. Merrill says the bects are not
only larger and the yield heavier
than in most localities, but the
beets are sweeter. Our long season
of perfect sunshine, early springs.
with cool nights at first, which are
specially conducive to root growths,
coupled with the rich soil make this
an ideal location for the beet grow
er. AS is generally known a
million-dollar factory is to be built
at Payette next season and there is
a belief on the part of the company
that the acreage in another year
will justify the erection of a plant
at or near Boise. Capital News.

One of the most important min
ing transactions in this part of
the state in some years is just
announced, it being the sale of
the Petit mine at Atlanta TO the
Bagdad-Chase Mining company, of
Rochester, N. Y. The property has
been taken over under bond, the
deal having been consummated by
Wayne Darlington, manager of the
company. 1t was called to the at
tention of that company by M. H.
Coffin. On the showing he made,
the mine was given thorough ex-
animation some months ago.
The consideration of the bond
has not been made public, but it
approximates $3.50, 600.
The company is to erect a mill on
the property having capacity of so
tons a day. The erection of the
plant cannot proceed until next
spring, but force of men Will be
put to work at once to continue the
development Of the property. An
expenditure of $50, will be
made in installation of the plant
and in development work.
This is one of the old properties
of the state, having been located
some 40 years ago. 1t belonged to
Frank r. Coffin, II. N. Coffin, A..
L. Richardson, the General Petit
estate and the estate of David Falk.
A very large amount Of develop
ment work has been done in the
mine, the entire property being
opened to depth of 400 feet.
Above that level the ore is all OPEN
ed by levels and upraises, there
being a total of about $500 feet Of
development. The one is all blocked
out ready for extraction. This
claim is a small one, having been
located under the old law, its length
being 600 feet.
Ever since having the examina-
tion of the property made, Mr..
Darlington has been working with
the ore with the view of determin-
ing the best method of treatmen.

Wool Market.

Quotations are not materially
tions remain unchanged. There is
fair inquiry from manufacturers,
but no pressure to secure deliveries,
and no alteration in the position is
anticipated before the next London
auction sale at least. Sales at the
three principal eastern markets are
of fair volume. In Boston last
weeks expectations of a much
larger business in wool have not
been realized, but there is a fair
demand from consumers and the
volume of business is of averag c
size. The big buyers are still out
of the market and dealers are be-

ly as a heavy movement in ST.

large eastern mills is reported
There is no disposition to force
business by reducing prices, and
many bids on large lines have been
turned down recently. Fleece woods
are in very strong position and
have moved freely since the season
opened. 1t is about territory woods

fair to be held here October 3 to E
inclusive, will attract the largest
crowd that ever gathered in this
county. Letters are being received
every day from all the adjoining
counties asking for information
and entry blanks. Horsemen who
are making the various county fairs
in Idaho, Washington, Oregon,
Montana and Utah, have indicated
their intention of bringing horses
here and a number have already en-
tered.
Citizens of Mountain Home have
responded promptly to the call of
the committee to list rooms in their
residences which can be secured at
that time, and there is now no
debut but what there will be ample
accommodation for all comers.
Governor Gooding will be here
on the first day and take prom
inent part in the ceremonies attend
ing the formal opening. He has
been billed by the state central COM
mittee to speak here on the evening
OF the third, and ]. H. Garrett is
now in Boise making arrangements
to star him on that auspicious occa-
sion. Judge Stockslager, the dem
ocratic candidate for governor, will
probably constitute an attraction
a day or two later.
There is a small army of men at
work at the grounds getting every
thing in shape. Unfortunately the
lumber fer the exhibition building
was in the wreck which occurred
on the o. R. & N. near Durkee,
Oregon, last week, and part of it
was burned. This occasioned some
delay, but j. H. Garrett, with
characteristic energy, at once made
other arrangements for lumber and
the building will be ready for ex-
hibits the day before the fair opens.
Tuesday an immense iron tank
was taken there and is now being
installed Pipes are being laid to
various points to convey water
from this tank, which has capac-
ity of 8, 500 gallons, and will be
kept full by an engine operated
pump.
One day last week the committee
appointed to solicit funds secured
pledges for over $1,000 in less than
two hours, working among the bus
mess men. Citizens of the county
everywhere are manifesting just as
much interest in the enterprise in
other ways. This united effort
insures even a greater success than
was at first hoped for.
In the way of amusement attrac-
tions, aside from the races, features
are being added every few days.
