HOG CHOLERA.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-(Special.)-
Senator Brady has arranged a meeting
between the bureau of animal industry
of the department of agriculture and
Dean Carlyle, relative to the cradle
alton of hog cholera in Idaho, and
Dean Carlyle hast just reached Wash
ington.
In speaking of Dean Carlyle's com
ing, Senator Brady said: 'sWe have a
very satisfactory understanding with
the department as to the manner Of
handling the work pertaining to the
eradication of hog cholera in Idaho,
but | am also anxious to see a plant
established in Idaho for the manufac-
ture of serum 1t has been demonstra-
ted that the serum that is effective in
the southern and some of the eastern
states, does not give satisfactory re-
suits in the high attitudes of the West,
and then again it has been definitely
demonstrated that more harm than
good can be done if bad serum is used,
and the only way for the Northwest
to protect itself is to have serum
mandatory established in one of the
northwestern states. This matter has
been taken up with the agricultural
colleges of the different states in the
Northwest, and they are all ready to
cooperate with Idaho in securing an |
appropriation OF $4,000 for the build
ing such plant in Idaho for the man
ufacture of serum. l feel that Dean
Carlyle can do much to help the good |
work along by properly presenting the
facts to the department of agriculture.
1.-The department is handling the
work in three divisions.

of eradicating hog

WASHINGTON, May 1.-The depart

porarily to contribute 500 per month
to the Boys and Birls' clubs of Idaho
to enable them during the present sea-
son to contribute their agricultural ex-

advance is only temporary, however,

RETURNS FROM CONGREGATIONAL
Jonathan Watson Elected e. Dele
gate to Attend Synod at Seattle.

The Rev Mr.. Jonathan Watson, rec
tor of st. Marks Episcopal church, has
returned from the south of the state
after a brief trip, which had for It's
object attendance upon the m lettings
of the Episcopal convocation III ses-
sion there during the week OF April
| GOTH One of the interesting items
of church news brought back by Mr..
Watson is the announcement Of his
election as a delegate to attend the
meetings of the Eighth department of
the Provincial synod TO be held in Sc
attic in October. The other delegates
are Dean Everett p Smith CT st.
Michael's Cathedral of Boise, the hev.
Mr.. d. w. J. Someryille of Lewiston,
Forks. From this time on the eight
departments of the Synod will have
legislative powers, whereas heretofore
their function has been merely adj
visory. 1t is expected that in the near
future they will determine the choice
of the fifteen or more bishops includ-
ed in the territory covered by the eight
departments. The eighth department
includes a large territory, the states
and territories composing it being Ida
no, Oregon, Washington, California,
Utah, Arizona Nevada, Alaska, and
the Hawaiin Islands. The meetings in
October will thus be most interesting
because they will be attended and ad-
dressed by delegates from such widely
separated districts.
While in Boise, Mr.. Watson renew
ed his friendly acquaintance with many
residents of the capital city and called
upon those of his former parishioners
who are now located there. Among
these was Mrs. Lester Albert, forI ler
ly Gladys Nankervis, about the bea lty
and winsomeness of whose new little
daughter, Ethelyn Marjorie, he brings
back glowing accounts.
Mr.. and Mrs. H. N. Wright and their |
son, recently of Moscow, are now liv
ing in Boise. Mr.. Wright, when seen
by Mr.. Watson, reported that he is
about to launch a company fol the
manufacturing of tile. Mr. Wright was
employed by the city as an engineer in
connection with the paving last year.

take one particular county and DEM
onstrate in that subdivision that hog
cholera can be eradicated and pre-
vented, and while that is going on, we
could be manufacturing the serum not
only for Idaho, but for the entire
Northwest, and that would be a serum
that would be adapted to the condi-
lions in these states and at the same
time the demonstrations and educa-
tional work among the farmers in CO.
operating with them in order to bring
about a better understanding of the
disease and approved methods of COM
batting it, can be carried on.
There is absolutely no reason why
this work should not be done i'll a
forceful and effective way. 1t takes
time to get the department to act, and
it will be a great relief and benefit
to have the cooperation and assist
ance of Dean Carlyle here on the
ground.
81 believe that we are going to get
our full share of the 100000 appropri-
ated for the eradication of hog cholera.
1 also believe the $2,000,000 additional
will be appropriated under the gener-
al appropriation bill. Our share of
this fund properly handled will not
only eradicate hog cholera in Idaho,
but will prevent future spread of
the disease. The department of agri-
culture has demonstrated that this can
be done under proper conditions, and !
know that our intelligent class of |
farmers in Idaho, with the assistance,
advice, and instructions they will re-
eeive, will be able to drive this dread
ed disease from our state, and if |
nave ben of some small service to tile
farmers of the state in this matter, l
shall feel amply repaid for my feeble
Efforts in their behalf.

MANY ENJOYED THE MIKADO
Continued from Page II

that; and his incisiye enunciation got
every word of the pointed and jolly
lines across the footlights. He seem
ed to improve in his acting from the
first, and by the time the second act
was well under way his every gesture,
his every movement and speech were
! screamingly funny.
L0ux Has Stage Presence.
Mr.. Loux has magnificent stage
presence. His full and powerful voice
and his confident bearing were as well
come last night as on the occasion OF
his Phafore triumph.
Mr.. Gerlough's fine appearance and
the surprisingly good rendition of his
many songs gave much pleasure. In
his speeches, his elocuticn was less
natural and easy than that of some
of the other men, but mis- lines were
given with power and intelligence.
Mr.. Bonneville sang and acted with
energy and with an evident desire to
throw himself heartily into the part.
HUMPHREYS as Pooh Bah.
Mr. Humphries's great stature was
most effective in The role and costume
of Pooh Bah. His beautiful voice was
at its best, and he displayed a genuine
humor in his admirable acting and in
telligent rendering of lines.
Miss Gregory is always popular. Last
evening both her singing and acting
showed great improvement over other
appearances, one of her chief solos be-
ing really beautiful. She rendered her
lines WELL but her inappropriate make
up detracted very much from the eff
fectiveness of part that should have
been one of the most mirth-provoking
of all. Her couture and dress were
entirely unsuited to the part and no
effort was made to render her APP
pearance or actions either grotesque
or comic If appropriateness had not
been sacrificed to a desire to pre-
sent a pleasing appearance, Miss
Gregory would have made an even
greater hit than she did.
Three Little Maids.
The three Graces themselves could |
hardly hope to be more winsome, |
charming, and dainty than the three
little maids from school whose acting
and dancing steps captivated every
body before they had been on the stage
ten minutes Miss Forteath was a lit
tie beauty. She has the type of voice
best suited to comic opera, and her
and dash in acting were as
great as those of many wellknown
actress Miss Yearians singing was
most pleasing and was in some partic
ulars the best done by any girl during
the performance. Further study and
coaching during the next few years
will give us in Miss Yearian real
treasure
Miss Petcina was evidently not in
voice, and the audience was thus de-
)rived of the expected pleasure of
hearing to advantage her usually ex-
luisite singing. This was most re- {
5rettable and inevitably took much
rom the great success she would have {
lad in her part; but the beauty and t
trace of her person, and a certain APP t
,ealing charm that is always the eff t
ect of Miss Petcinas smiles and s
peech almost made up for the loss of S
he expected solos. Miss Petcina dis a
laved genuine dramatic ability.
Superb coaching and directing. to- G
ether with a splendid orchestra and a
eautiful stage settings combined to t.
lake last nights performance by far n
he most creditable, delightful, and n
rtistic of any ever seen here.
