ment uwl an influx of prospectors. The
disco'-crv was mndo a month ago by a
party f s-irvnyors who were at work on
the si to of it proposed dam , near the
niniMh of the Hrunoan rivor. Suspecting
that the peculiar tones which they had

cvuti tfr'"itnr value , the ontfincora coin-
imimenii'd with friends in Portland ,
Ore , to whom tlioy forwarded half a
do/.on Hoorunons. The Portland people
Were assured by two reliable jewelers
that Urn stones were diamonds.
fiii.-i'iil local jewelers have pro-
lioun > 'ud llio rough atones submitted to
t'noir inspection ( /onuino diamonds.
Many of thorn nro of the purest water ,
nnd onn man who lias visited South
Africa declareR that the lormation of
Iho poll in which the Idaho gems are
imbedded is oxnctly of the sumo nature
ds that of the Kimberly diamond fields.
Loss than six months ago viilimblo do-
VonltM of lire and ttillic opals were dis
covered near Caldwi-11. The locators of
the nidiiy claims hnvo already sold
thousands of dollars' worth of rough
POIIIH , and reminiscences of this fortu
nate discovery have surved to intensify
the exiting diamond excitement.
'J lie prosi-nt is not the first discovery
Of diamonds in Idalio. A story possess-
im. ' the lionry earmarks of tradition liaa
it that the name of the Plato originated
Jn some inaniier from the brilliancy of
the quart/ crystals found by the Indians
in various localities' . Idah'o is the In
dian for " ( iom of the Mountains. " In
the shining light of the present dis
coveries the name IB decidedly appro
priate The signillcanco of the title
wnu known at the christening , but its
application by while men was not due ,
nssomo declare , to diamond discoveries
in tlio early days.
Thirty-ono years ngo prospecting
parlies senrchod the locality for gold ,
but wore not successful. Ono James
"Wilson wns attracted by the bril-
lianc.v of the crystals found on the
river bunk. Not knowing their value
ho paid little attention to them ,
though lie kept a Tow for pocket
pieces , Two years later , after Idaho
Wis segregated from Washington , Wil-
6011 met ( iovernor Lyon and "exhibited
the crystals. Lyon told Wilson what
limy WITH and took six of thorn to New
York , wlicro they sold for $12,000. Soon
lifter Wilson and a partner started out
for the diamond Holds , but were drowned
by the capsi/ing of a boat on Snake
river in July , ISM.
As far as known only , ono of the men
who With Wilson visited the locality in
3SOI is now livng | Colonel I ) . II. t'agus

Boeured the services of an African uia-
jnoml expert and started for the Idaho
diggings , hut on the way the expert
died sii'ldenly. '
After thirty odd ye.irs cf unbroken

repose the. existence'of crude brilliants
in Idalio is again brought to light. In

A syndicate of wealthy men have m
dertakoii a gigantlo improvement syi
'
turn in Ada county , Idaho. It is th'ul
purpose to reclaim over HOO.OOO acres (
( Insert Imid and to make possible for th
first time the washing of the vast goli
laden snivel and sand bars of the grcr
Snnko river valley. These bars bavin
been left high and dry by the or-atl
waters of the river hnvo never boo
worked save upon a very small scab
the miners llmling it impossible to ge
water upon the ground , It has boo
fully demonstrated that the bai
abound wiili gold , and as soon as wate
is obtainable great activity is antic
pated in mining circles. Th'o com pan
will build a dam across Snnlto river i
Hod Trail falls , about forty miles froi
Boise and. Blartlng from this point , wi
construct a canal over 100 miles 1
length , The canal will bo seven foot i
depth and forty-eight feet In width on Hi
bottom nnd seventy-four fool across tli
top , it will C.UTJ 16,000 miner's inclu
of wilt or , to bo used by irrigntors iui
miners , nnd its surfiico will never free-
over. The hoadgnto of the canal wi
bo located in Owyheo county , but tl
water will bo brought into Ada count
through an aqueduct 1,700 feet in longtl
that will cross the river at an nltitiu
of 100 loot. The water that llowi ovi
thodnm will furnish wixlor power uf-
flctunt to gonornto electricity for gonsrnl
use In Ntunpa , Silver City , Dclamar and
the surrounding country. The total of
the great work will bo $750,000.
Wlillo the reclamation of so much
dcsort land Is of the greatest importance
to Idaho , the resumption of mining
along the Snnko river will probably
make moro stir In the world. Kxport
minors say bars of the great river hold
hundreds of millions ol the purest gold ,
and nt the present time men who work
the ground on the smallest scale and In
the most primitive manner innUo good
wages. The now compnnr will looito
much placer ground and will sell water
to olhor locators.

It's hard getting through
with your washing and cleaning , if you
don't use Pearline. And you can use
it , with great gain , upon anything lhat
you want made clean. In washing
clothes , perhaps you won't believe
that Pearline is harmless. It has
been proved so to millions of women ,
over and over again , but perhaps you
won't be convinced. Thert use it for
something that can't be hurt. Use it for washing dishes , for
instance , and save work. When you come to know it better
and let it wash the clothes , you'll find that it saves the wear
and tear as well as the work.
