Mitch Knltli In ihe Hotel l'rfof. | .
The resurrection of the palace hotel
schoino causes very little surprise , as
its periodical appearance is regarded
very much as a matter of course , yet
tor some reason those who have buou
hoard to express themselves seem to
place more confidence In it than in any
of the schemes of this kind previously
advanuid. The location on the Woodbury -
bury corner is regarded as in every way
the best that could bo secured , and
gives general satisfaction. It is con
ceded thai the erection and successful
operation of such n structure as that
proposed would cto moro for Council
BlulTs than any other ono thing that
could bo secured. Almost without ex
ception the business men favor the plan
most heartily and express the opinion
that the right parties have at last taken
liold of it. The amount necessary to
purchase this site was once subscribed ,
ind it is thought that it can again bo
secured moro easily than at lirst , as the
plan proposed , that of utilizing the en-
lire ground lloor for the hotel ro
tunda , reading rooms , etc. , is moro
satisfactory than that of renting
i portion of it for store purposes.
Several hotel projects have been cast
out merely as feelers , but it is stated
that this ono is already sufllciontly under
way to dive llattorlng promise of ulti-
ma'to success , nnd the completion of u
thoroughly modern , lire-proof hotel.

No Now City Hall Thlq Yenr.
"What's the with the
maUci : new city
liallV" was the inquiry made of Alder
man Lacy yesterday.
"It will have to take a rest until the
1st of January , " ' was the reply. "Wo
got a little too fast , and it won'c come
up at the November election. You sco ,
wo couldn't vote the bonds this year , as
our assessed valuation is only about
& 1COO,000 , but next year it will bo over
$0,000,000. Wo can got at it as soon
after the llrst of the year as wo want to.
I don't know whether wo will call a
special election or wait until the regu
lar spring election. A special election
will not cost very much and will result
in saving about three months' time ,
but that matter can bo determined
later. A now city hall is sadly needed ,
and the extra time that must neces
sarily ensue before an election can bo
had will undoubtedly bo sulllciont to
convince the citizens that it should bo
built. "

composed by Rov. Mr. Crofts especially
for the occasion :

Ho no'uron earth shall wako iitmw ;
His weary eyes no moro shall weep
Forever frco from euro and pain.

World. M r. Thompson saw the lineman -
man hanging in the wires , and for some
imo watched lite terrible agonies.
When Mr. Thompson reached his olllco
on Montnguo street , Brooklyn , ho told
what ho had witnessed to the clerks ,
nnd then wont into the rcnr ofllco and
related the story to President Hassan
( I. Wheeler. Just as ho was finishing
lie was seized with convulsions , and
would have fallen had not Mr. Wheeler
caught him.
"Mr. Thompson was Very much excited -
cited when ho came in , and his discrip-
tlon was so vivid that it made mo shud
der. " said Mr. Wheeler to n World re
porter yesterday. "lie had just said ,
'Thoro ' were thousands of people look
ing on at that poor fellow's sufferings
and nnt one dared to venture up the
polo to release him.1 When ho leaned
forward. ' with his teeth sot nnd his
hands clinched , I thought ho was illus
trating the actions of tlio dying line
man. Then ho staggered nnd I realized
that ho was ill. Jumping from my chair
ut the desk , I cnughthim as ho was fall

that Mr. Thompson had received an

PASTEUR AND BROWN-SEQUARD.
Scientists Without Honor in Their
Own Country.
While Mr. Edison has boon greatly
honored by all classes ot Frenchmen ,
and leading citizens have vied in con
ferring distinctions upon him , says a
Paris correspondent of the New York
Tribune , Mr. P.tsteur and Dr. Brown-
Sequard have not boon so fortunate.
The papers hero never showed great
confidence in tlio reinvigorating virtues
of Dr. Brown-Sequard's elixir. They
admitted that the aged doctor , who is
really seventy-two years old and looUed
as much , had courageously experi
mented witli his ollxir on himself.
But they showed that the pop
ularity which the elixir achieved was
'
prima'rily due to Dr. Variot , who first
announced that ho had tried the elixir
on some of his patients witli great suc
cess. Unkind critics have hinted that
Variot reported in this way to bid for
the influence of Dr. Brown-Sequard in
tlio French Academy of Medicine , n.s
well as to secure the custom of decrepit
people anxious to recover the strength
of youth. They allege als-o that Dr.
Variot some years ago attached his
name to a quack specific for destroying
marks of tattooing , and that his experi
ments with the elixir were made by
him as otlicial physician of the Central
inlirmary of the state prisons upon poor
and ignorant people , and not in the
presence of other doctors.
Pasteur has fared oven worse with a
minority of his countrymen. While It
is true that a splendid building was
erected in which ho might prosecute
his researches with regard to hydro
phobia , it is also true that violent oppo
sition was shown in thoParis municipal
council against making any grant for
such a purpose. IIo has , moreover , just
been snubbed in his native place , the
town of Arbois , in the department of
Jura , whore the municipal council has
decided by a vote of 12 to 4 that the Rue
Pasteur should lese its name and bo
called hereafter Rue do la Garo , or
"Depot street. "

An Infallible Cure.
A remedy for diphtheria is given ns
follows : Take ton gralnsof permangan
ate of pottassium nnd mix with ono
ounce of cold water. As soon as dis
solved it must bo applied with a rag or
sponge mop or swab to the whitish
places in the tonsils , nnd other parts
that have the diphtheria membrane on.
Do this very gently , but thoroughly ,
every thrco hours until bettor ; then
every six hours until well. It docs not
give" pain , but is rather nauseous to
the taste. If the tongue is coated white
I mix ono drachm of hyposulphite of
soda and live drops of oil sassafras in
four ounces of syrup made of sugar and
hot water , and give a teaspoonful
every ono to three hours us
needed , when awake. If the tongue
Is not coated white I mix twenty
drops of tincture of phytolacca in four
ounces of cold water , and glvo a teaspoonful -
spoonful o very ono to three hours , as
needed , when awake. Tlio phylolacca
is the common poke root of the south ,
and as It loses its strength by drying
and ago , the tincture should bo from
tlio frouh root or It is worthless.
It is well to apply a little sweet oil or
cosmollno to the outside of the throat to
protect from the action of the air , as
the patient must bo protected from all
danger of getting chilled.
In the beginning of the disease in
mild cases the above solution of per
manganate of potassium Is all I use , and
that is needed , as the disease is local nt
drat , but rapidly alTocts the whole sys
tem when soated. In the stinking form
of diphtheria this solution soon destroys
all smell , and in every case it destroys
the diphtheria membrane without leav
ing any hud olloot behind.

CLAYTON , Idaho , Oct. 19. [ Special to
TUB But ! . ] From the earliest history
of Omuhn her citizens Imvo boon noted
for their on orgy iitul enterprise In
reaching out Into now Holds of business.
I Imvo lately boon looking over the
work of seine of Omtiha't ) well known
citizens fnr up in the mountains of
Idaho , which will interest seine of tlioir
many friends. All through the moun
tains a email incident may give tv name
to n locality , and it is from such that
many odd names have boon given to
towns and mining districts.
Years ago , when this part of Idaho
was overrun with Indians , so hostile
that white men staid away , a man
mounted on a largo bay horse passed
lirough the country und reaching
Salmon City , told of campingono night
on a crcoic where ho saw indications of
gold. Although nearly a hundred
miles away , the country then was so
little known , and minors wore so eager
for "olncor.8" that n , prospecting party
was soon on the way thither. All they
know about the place was what the
unknown man with a "bay horso" hud
told the in , and the description was
so plain that they found no trouble In
going to the spot , outside of the hard
climbing over hills , through dcop
gorges and the lording of the river.
Once there , they named the crook and
gulch Bay Ilorso , but found no placer
gold to pay for their trouble , but there
was lots of such game * as door , boar ,
gouts and sheep. Climbing to the top
of a mountain skirting the crook , a
mountain sheep was started up , and
running eloso to the precipice was
pierced by a ball from the unerring
aim of n rifle nnd ho fell fnr below. The
hunter soon made his way down to the
animal and was rewarded , not only by
finding a prize of excellent venison , but
the sheep had struck and knocked on"
some galena ore with his horns. The
animal had not only uncovered some of
the riches of this mountain , but his
horns and the incident suggested the
name for the
GKUAT HAMSnOUN MINK
which has since yielded millions in
silver , gold and Iqnd. This was some
ten or twelve years ago , and when the
country was only reached by saddle and
pack animals. Now there are good
roads and great trains of wagons , while
stage lines makoaccoss , easy.
Jt was soon after this singular dis
covery of a mine that Omaha men began
to take an interest hero. Rich ores
trom the Itanishorn mine sent to Omaha
for smelting attracted attention , and E.
\V. Nnsh , Captain C. B. Rustin , General
W. W. Lowe , A. T. Crook , Messrs. Bar
ton , Wallace , and others , became inter
ested in this country and their money
put in operation a' smelter at the town
of Bay Ilorso. This has since passed
into other hands and been developed
into considerable prominence , while the
Omaha men have opened up u very suc
cessful plant for smelting ores at Clay
ton , eighteen miles farther up Salmon
river. To do this General Lowe ,
Captain Rustin and others went
there by trail and built wagon
roads and bridges costing several
thousand dollars , which the com
pany afterwards donated to the gen
eral public. More than this , they have
developed the country , giving employ
ment to hundreds of men , built other
roads , and the present company , made
up chtelly of Omaha men , is sending to
Omaha a regular stream of rich bullion
for rcllnement. To do this requires a
line of great freight teams between
Clayton and Kotchum , the nearest rail
way point , distant eighty miles. Those
teams of sixteen or eighteen mules draw
four wagons , loaded with about forty
thousand pounds of freight , such as
coke , mining supplies and goods , when
coming in , while bullion furnishes their
loads going hack. They operate a half
dozen mines and oxvn two orthreo times
that number of mining claims. When
Gonornl Lowe and Captain Rustin wore
here they worked as only the
ADVANCB QUAUD OF AX AllMY
can , with all the disadvantages of being
far in advance of supplies , but they laid
the foundations for enterprises to last
for many years to come. Mining'horo
is only in its infancy , oven if the lodes
have given up millions in value during
the past ton or fifteen years. New pro
cesses of smelting and the still more im
portant one of concentrating ores to
save cost of transportation and smelling
has done much for this district , and
now only a railway is needed to give
very rapid development.
Lot mo attempt a description of the
country. Nearly ono hundred miles to
the southwest the great Sawtooth range
in its trend northward forms the rim of
the basin drained by Salmon rivor. At
an elevation of 10,000 foot above the sea ,
winter storms store away the supply
which supplies this river , a
big , rapid stream , during all the
balance of the year. Even at this
elevation prospectors have found min
eral lodges , inviting minors who have
been for years delving in the rocks and
despoiling the dense timber in the
gulches and mountain sides. Three
winters ago n friend kept the record of
storms , snow fall' nnd temperature.
That winter's exp9rionco was onougli
for him , and in early March ho walked
out on snow shoes' , resolved not to re
turn agali : to spend a winter thoro.
Eighty-six days' continuous snows ,
measuring as it foil over ninety foot in
the aggregate , and packing down to
nine foot on the level ; seventy-eight
day * in which th'o sun was soon but
twice , und fifty-thrpo days without a ray
to cast a shadow , pprtninly was onoutrh
to make life gloomy , and yet there was
the added dancer of being in the track
of a great snow slide , should ono start
in that locality. , T3ut go there in the
bright days of summer and the HCOIIO is
enchanting. Great meadows of native
grasses , enough trees to enliven the
landscape , ( lowers everywhere , uu nt-
mosphoro pure , clear and oxhiloratlng ,
while numerous streams of limpid , cold
water , Illled with trout , and several
beautiful lakes make this a delightful
summer retort for pleasure. Even
in the warmest days the elevation
und grout patches of snow on the
hills make a warm flro and heavy blan
kets comfortable at night' . Bear , door ,
wolves , antelope , fish , ducks and goose
arc so plentiful as to oiler rare sport to
huntsmen. It Is over 1,000 miles by
the Columbia , Snuico and Salmon rivers
to this land , from the Pacific , and yet
salmon trout nnd big salmon come all
the way hero from the ocoun to spawn.
At times the river is fairly alive with
these migratory fish , whllo Inter , about
this time of the year , the shore Is liupd
with dead ones.
] iii : > FISH TAKIS. :
Near the head waters of Salmon river ,
of which there are two nt ono place and
Another n few miles distant , are real
curiosities. The ono best known as
Red Fish lake is a deep chasm in Lnho
gulch , nonr the town of Sawtooth. It Is
nearly a mile wide nnd tliroo miles long ,
with water so clear as to show sea or
water weeds forty feet down. Its great
est depth is not known , slnco a halt-
milo line failed to reach the bottom or
give signs of the ' 'boh" having struck
it. The curious feature giving the Inko
Its iiiimo is the appearance about the
10th of August each year of myriads of
red fish twelve to sixteen inches
long which swarm in the lake ,
and rush up the crook a few miles.
After spawning nnd remaining in the
lake nnd crcnk until in October , such
as do tint die disappear as suddenly as
they camo. Going down Salmon river
ono is purl of the time in a broad val
ley , but occasionally this narrows into
a dilllcult canon.
A friend four years ago had a small
silver stamp mill which ho wanted to
remove up the river only fourteen
miles. It could not bo taken over a
narrow trail and there was no road , so

This incident illustrates the diffi
culties of mountain travel. It is dllTor-
ont now since such men as have boon
spoken of in this letter have con
structed roads by blasting out the rocks
nnd building bridges , making more di
rect routes of travel. There is no more
delightful country to camp out in , hunt ,
fish and enjoy grand seonory than
along Salmon river , from its rise in tl.o
Sawtooth mountains down to its union
with Snake river , amid the canons
piercing the rugged mountains of the
Seven Devils country , over live hundred
miles from where the melting snow
starts on Its way to the son. Most of
this distance , on either side , the moun
tains are either clothed with pine and
fir trees , or else have fissures Illled
with minerals that will seine day be ex
tracted and enter into the commerce of
the world. Around Buy Ilorso , Clayton ,
In the Yankco Fork country ( a tribu
tary to the Salmon ) , many mines have
boon opened and become profitable ,
while there is a country around two by
thren hundred miles in extent so inac
cessible that but little is known of the
great wealth it contains. This vast
region is destined to fall under the
scrutiny of prospectors , and in view of
the wonders already revealed wo are at
a loss to calculate what wo may expect
in its development. M.
I have used your Snlvatlon Oil for cracked
heels , mango , and sane cracks with horses ,
and it gives perfect satisfaction.

Coal Consuming Public
The coal dealers of Council Bluffs would most respectfully sav in explanation
of the reduction in prlco of coal made by A. T. Thatcher , of this city , that Mr.
Thatcher has heretofore claimed to soil coal by wholesale only , nnd tlmt ninny of
us have purchased coal from him at the market prices , nnd would still continue
to do so , if wo could get a good nrtlclo of coal that would please our trade , but
with coal bought from Mr. Thatcher wo have had a irroat deal of trouble and
complaint , nnd those of us who have handled his coal have boon
to Witiita Our Orders
rom him or lese our customers.
To resent this and coerce the dealers into buying an inferior article of coal
Mr. Thatcher has como into the retail trade , mitt is now olToring his coal nt a loss
price delivered to consumers than lie charged us for It at his yards , and also at
lower prices than wo could purchase Moruhnntilu Coal else where.
Wo are prepared to furnish a statement fully verified as to the correctness of
the nbovo explanation :
