light upon the facades and sides OF
the buildings The light behind the
columns will be warm yellow in the
lower sections, while the upper sec
tons will be a blush purple produc-
ing an artificial shadow in the light.
The walls behind the colonnades in
the grand court of honor, the Court
of Sun and Stars, and in the great east
and west courts, will be decorated
with mural paintings which will be H.
Illuminated by electric globes placed in
recesses in the backs of the columns;
the lamps will not be visible from the
floors OF the colonnades or from the
courts. These will be set in columns
at heights of ten, twenty, and thirty
feet The illumination of the paint
ings will be absolutely controlled by
changing the size of the light units
and the curvature of the mirrors that
will reflect the lights against the
walls. kaleidoscope effects will be
obtained by introducing colored
bulbs. A special type Of tubular
lamp has been developed for fluted
columns, the lamp and reflector being
small enough to go into a flute of
each column.
The method of turning on the lights
at night will be original. At first the
visitor will notice myriads of little
jets of lights throughout the exposi-
ton where batteries of searchlights
throw their rays against the jewels in
the towers and above the figures of
the stars around the Court of Sun and
Stars; then from behind the columns
Of the colonnades that line the walls
of the buildings the light will break
out, flooding the mural decorations
with radiance; then will come the
great white light throughout the ex-
position, and finally scintillators an
chored six hundred vars off the es-
planade will direct their batteries of
colored lights throughout the exposi-
ton grounds. These scintillators will
be manned by fifty or sixty men who |
are drilled to handle the batteries of |
lights in much the same manner that !
are drilled "The effect" |
says Mr.. Ryan, twill be marvellous.
The batteries will go through evolu-
lions of color, forming auroras in the |
sky and over the exposition, that will
spread like a great lily ::

REMEDY FOR SAN JOSE
Formula.

Sulphur ~ lbs.
Unslacked lime ............ 40 lbs.
For a greater or less quantity the
ration would be pound of salt, 2
pounds of sulphur and 4 pounds of
lime to every E gallons of water.
Directions-Place 20 gallons of
water in boiler, and heat to boiling
point. While this is being done, place
the lime, sulphur and salt in large
barrel or vat, and slack the lime BY
adding water in sufficient quantity to
do so properly, keeping it we'll stirred,
mixing the lime, sulphur and salt
thoroughly. When this operation is
completed, add enough water to the
contents of the barrel or vat to reduce
it to somewhat thick liquid, and
starin the mixture into the boiler.
Dilute with enough water to make 60
gallons. In bad cases of scale when
using commercial lime and sulphur,
use gallon of solution to 7 gallons
OF water. In milder cases use one
gallon of solution to 10 parts water.
Salt is used in the above formula to
make the spray adhere more perfectly
to the tree. In fair weather it may be
dispensed with.

/ Hon. Thomas L. Glenn represented
Idaho in the 57th congress and the
| present representative, Burton l.
! French, has represented Idaho in
every congress since that time ex-
| cepting the 6lst during which time
Hon. Thomas L. Hamer was a mem
Der of the house.
Mr. French has been member of
the 58th, 59th, Goth and 62nd con-
crosses and closed the period of Ida
hos representative by but one men,
Der in the house of representatives.
OF this number, Sweet, Wilson for
one term, French, Hamer, and French
again, served as republicans. Wilson
served during the 56th congress as a
silver republicans; Gum during the
55th as a populist, and Glenn as a
populist during the 57th. However,
Wilson, Gum and Glenn were elected
by the combined votes of the demo-
Gratis, silver republicans and populists
of the state.
During this period of a little more
than twenty years, Idaho has grown
from state with a population of
$1,000 to a state with a population of
lIdIi O6OOOO d(SOl " thC
census of 1910, and probably a popu-
lation of not less than 100000 at the
present time.
AS has been said, Idaho for the
next ten years will be entitled to
two representatives in the house and
the members elected to represent the
state in the 63rd congress are Burton
l.. French and Addison T. Smith.
Prior to the 63rd congress it ap-
sented by six different representatives
in the house and in this respect es-
tablishes record that is not equalled
by many of the older states where it
is customary to retain a member for
many years, excepting as changes in
party cause an old member to be dis
placed by the member OF another po-
litical organization.
In view of the fact that the state
has not been districted, Congressman
French and Smith will represent
Idaho at large, the same as the two
senator's represent the entire state.

SUFFRAC|STS LEFT
OUT OF INAUGURAL
Have Not Been Invited is the
Reason.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 25.-The
National American Woman's Suf-
frage association, as such, will take
no part in the inauguration of Pres
ident-elect Woodrow Wilson on
March next. Nor will General
Rosalie Jones and her ''army" of
marchers have anything to do with
the inaugural parade, although they
will be here and will take part in
the day previous.
Just why the women would not
take part was not made clear until
Mrs. Helen H. Gardener, head Of the
publicity committee, said no invita-
tion had been received from the in
augural committee of Washington.
"The association" Mrs. Gardener
said, ''cannot very well take part in
the Inauguration and then, you see,
the inaugural committee has declin-
ed definitely to permit us to use the
stands it has erected for the inaug-
ural parade. This, you must under
stand, has nothing to do with our
not taking part in the inaugural pa
rade. We are a nonpartisan body
and the parade is somewhat of a
partisan affair. Therefore our par
ticipation might be miseonstrued."
