AN IDAHO CAVE.
A Beautiful Natural Formation VIII
Be Reserved BY Government for
PubIic lice


AS result of an investigation of a
mammoth cave near Kuna by United
States Surveyor General u. A. Utter
and other prominent engineers of the
state, il is probable that the cave,
which is said to DE one of rare beauty
in its formation, will be set aside by
the government for the public use
This is the recommendation which Will
be made by Mr. Utter.
In speaking of the cave Gen. Utter
said; THE entrance to the cave is a
hole which drops down through a level
plain and down which a wire ladder
has been placed. The cave is II series
of apartments, about seven in all. The
first room in which we found ourselves
was about 80 feet wide and some 20
feet high. To the north Of this there
IS tunnel about three feet high open
ing into an apartment $50 feet long and
ABOUT AZ feet high, and with a long
Sheli or balcony running about it. 1t
was on this balcony that the body OF
q man was found some time ago, and

The party started to explore south

Of wet, damp air was felt and the can

miles away, and Gen. Utter is of the
opinion that there is an opening all
the way to the river. but the ground
was SO seggy and the opening so
choked mp that the party did not make
further explorations in that direction.
The cave is an extremely beautiful
place said Gen. Utter. and is the re-
suit Of the formation left when tho

cave are huge lava bubbles. so to

highest point reached by the mercury
at Newport was rs degrees at midday.
Worcester had a wind storm during

the dust flying and drove people in
doors, but although ii cooled the at

wind stopped which il did within a
short time il was as warm as ever.
City and town officials throughout
New England took measures to relieve
the suffering as far as possible. In
Boston the ferry boats were still used
as free excursion boats by the poorer
classes with the sanction of Acting
Mayor Collins, and during the after
noon word was passed around that all
who desired might sleep on the COM
mon tonight. The result was that this
breathing spot of the city resembled a
huge dormitory tonight. Whole fami-
lies were eamped under the trees. a
few bringing blankets, but the ma

nearly 1000 persons slept on the COM

During the evening the fire depart

suffering in that manner.
