down the river, subsisting on fish and
an occasional beaver. The party then
divided, Mr.. Hunt and eighteen men
going on one side of the river and Mr..
Crooks and eighteen men on the 9TH

Some Snake Indians were cncoun-
tered from whom some salmon ana Il
dog were purchased. On November
II, several Indians were met, one oil
whom had q horse Mr. Hunt finally
purchased the animal in eXchage for
an old tin kettle, after having offered
q gun, ammunition and beads in vain.
Mr.. Hunt here left the river ana
started over the desert. The party en-
countered great suffering and hard
ship on this journey and finally
reached the Boise river and an Indian
camp where fish and dogs were pur-
chased for food. The Paycttc an"
Weiser rivers were forded and the
Snake river finally reached again.
Country Described as Desert
November 28th, a bag Of meal and
some fish was purchased from Il par
ty of Shoshones who informed Mr..
Hunt that they had seen white men
on both sides of the Snake river within
the last few days.
Washington, in his account of the
Hunt expedition, has this to say or
the country west of the Snake:
"a dreary desert Of sand and gray
el extends from the Snake river almost
to the Columbia. Here and there IS
a thin and scanty hcrbagc, Insufficient
for the pasturage of horse or buffalo.
Indeed these tracklesS wastes ne
tween the Rocky mountains and 'he
Pacific are even more dc1oIatc ana
barren than the naked, upper prair'"S
on the Atlantic side; they present vast
dreary and thirsty wilds between III"
habitations of man, in traversinS
which, the wandcrcr will oftcn be in
danger of pershing."

route now, what different story

H. 7. PRICE LOCKED IN
VAULT IN CITY HALL
Probably Would Have Suffo-
Gated But for Presence of
Colonel Stover.

Harry u. Price, a member of the
Board of Assessment, is thankful for
the very narrow escape he had recent
ly from probable suffocation in the
steel and concrete vault in the offices
OF his department in City Hall. 1t was
nearing the time for the closing Of the
offices in the afternoon when Mr.
Price had occasion to step into the
vault TO place some papers. While he
was in there an employe in the of
fee, not knowing Mr.. Price was inside,
closed and locked the door.
At first Mr.. Price thought 1t all a
joke and called out to have someone
turn on the light so he could see. The
man who closed the door is handicap
ped by some defect in his hearing and
the cries of the official In the vault
could not be heard by him. Then the
imprisoned man started to kick on the
steel door, still without attracting the
attention of the one who closed and
locked the vault.
Fortunately for Mr.. Price, Col w.
Z. Slower, his colleague on the Board,
had not yet left the office and he heard
the commotion inside the vault. He had
the door unlocked and opened and Mr..
Price was released. much TO his relief.
especially when he realized It was not
all Joke but might have developed
into CHASTITY fact had II not been for
the presence Of Colonel Slower in the
office at the time.
