The resurrcetion of the palace hotel scheme causes very little sucprise, as its periodical appearance is regarded very much asa matter of course, yet for some reason those who have been ed to express themselves seem to re more confidence in it than 1n any of theschemes of this kind previously advancad, The location on the Wood- bury corner is regarded asin every way the best that could be secured, and gives general satisfaction.

Thompson, superintendent of the American District Telegraph com- pany, is lying in a very precarious con- dition at his home, No. 746 Herkimer street, Brooklyn, the result of witness- ing the horrible death of Lineman Fecks among the electric wires at Cen= ter and Chambers street, this city, Friday afternoon, says the New York World, Mr. Thompson saw the line- man hanging in the wires,and for some time watched his terrible sgonies. When Mr. Thompson_reached his office on Montague street, Brooklyn, he told what he had witnessed to the clerks, and then went into the rear office and related the story to President Hassan . Wheeler, Just as he was finishing he wus scized with convulsions, and would have fallen had not Mr. Wheeler caught him. *Mr. Thompson was very much ox- cited when he came in, and his diseri tion was so vivid that it made me shud- der,” said Mre. Wheeler to a World re- porter yesterday. **He had just said, “Theve were thousands of people look- ing on at that poor fellow's sufferings and not one dared to venture up the pole to release him.” When he leaned orward, “ with his teeth set and his hands clinchea, I thought he was illus- trating the actions of the dying line- man. Then he staggered and I real that he was ill. Jumping from my chair at the desk, I caughthim as he was fall- g and I placed him upon the floor.” The reporter saw Dr. Little, who said that My, Thompson had veceived an apoplectic stroke. brought on Ly the excitement and shock of what he had witnessed in New York, and that he would probably die.

While Mr. Idison has been greatly honored by all classes ot Frenchmen, and leading citizens have vied in con- ferving distinctions upon him, says a Paris correspondentof the New York Tribune, Mr. Pasteur and Dr. Brown- Sequard have not been so fortunate. The papers here never showed great coufidence in the reinvigorating virtues of Dr. Brown-Sequard’s elixir. They admitted that the aged doctor, who is really seventy-two years old and looked as much, had courageously experi- mented with his_elixir on himself. But they showed that the pop- ularity which the elixir achieved was primarily due to Dr. Variot, who fivst announced that he had tried the elixir on some of his patients with great suc- cess. Unkind critics have hinted that Variot reported in this way to bid for the influence of Dr. Brown-Sequard in the I'rench Academy of Medicine, as well as to secure the custom of decrepit. people anxious to recover the strength of youth. They allege also that Dr. Variot some years ago attached his name to & quack specific for destroying marks of tattooi nd that his experi- ments with the elixir wero made by him as official 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 even worse with a minorijy of his countrymen. While it is true that a splendid building was ed in which he might prosecute searches with regard to lydro- phobia, it 18 also true that violent oppo- sition was shown in the Paris municipal council against making any grant for such a purp: He has, morcover, just been snubbed in his native place, the town of Arbois, in the department of a, where the municipal couucil has decided by a vote of 12 to 4 that the Rue Pasteur should lose its mame and be called hereafter Rue de la Gave, or “Depot street.” -~ Complexion Powier is an absolute necessity ined toilet in this climate.

DEVELOPED BY OMAHA MEN, What Idaho's Mining Interests Owo Capital and Enterprise From Nobraska's Metronolls—Hard Wine ters But Delightful Summers, Tdaho Mines. CLAYTON, Idaho, Oct. 19.—[Specinl to THe BEE. |-~ From the est history of Omaha her citizens have been noted for their energy and enterprise in reaching out into new fields of business. I have lately been looking over the work of some of Omaha’s well known citizens far up in the mountains of Idaho, which will interest some of their many friends. All through the moun- tains a small incident may give a name to a locality, and it is from such that many odd names have beon given to towns and mining districts. Yoars ago, when this part of Tdaho wus overrun with Indians, so hostile that white men staid away, a man mounted on a large bay horse passed hrough tho country and reaching Salmon City, told of ¢amping one night on a creek where he saw indications of gold. Although mnearly a hundred miles away, tho country then was so little known, and miners were so eager for ‘‘placers” that a prospecting party was soon on the way thither. All they knew about the place was what the unknown man with a **bay horse” had told them, and the description was so plain that they found no trouble in going to the spot, outside of the hard climbing over hills, through deep gorges und the fording of the river. Once there, they named the creck and gulch Bay Horse, but found no placer gold to pay for their trouble, but thece was lots of such gamd as deer. bear, gouts and sheep. Climbing to the top of a mountain skirting the creck, a mountain sheep was started up, and running closo to the precipice was pierced by a ball from the unerring aim of a rifle and he fell far 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 off some galena ore with his horns. The animal had not oniy uncovered some of the riches of this mountain, but his horns and the incident suggested the name for the GREAT RAMSHORN which b ince yielded silver, gold and 1dnd. ten or twelve years a country was only red by saddle and pack animals. Now there are good roads and great trains of wagons, while stago lines make access eas It was soon after this singular dis- covery of & mine that Omaha men began to take an interest here. Rich ores from the Ramshorn mine sent to Omaha for smelting attracted attention, and W. Nash, 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 Horse. This has since passed into other hands and been developed into considerable prominence, while the Omaha men have opened up o very suc- ful plant for smelting ores at Cla ton, eighteen miles farther up Salmon r. To do this General Lowe, apt Rustin and others went there by trail and built wagon voads and bridges costing several thousand dollars, which the com- pany afterwards donated to the gen- eral public. More than this, they huve developed the country, giving employ- mentto hundreds of men, bwlt other roads, and the present company, made up chiefly of Omaha men, is sending to Omaha a regular stream of vich bullion for refinement. To do this requires a line of great freight teams between Clayton and Ketchum, the neavest rail- way point, distant exghty miles. These teams of sixteen or eighieen mules draw four wagons, londed with about forty thousand pounds of freight, such as coke, mining supplies and goods, when coming in, while bullion furnishes thewr loads going back. They operate a half dozen mines and own two orthree times that number of mining claims. When Gengral Lowe and Captain Rustin were here they worked as only the ADVANCE GUARD OF AN ARMY 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. Miningshere is only its infancy, even if the lodes have given up millions in value during the past ten or fifteen years. New pro- cesses of smelting and the stillmore im- portant one of concentrating ores to suve cost of transportation and smelting has done much for this distriet, and now only a railway is needed to give very rapid development. Lot me attempta description of the country, Nearly one huudred miles to the southwest the great Sawtooth range 1n its trend northward forms the rim of the basin drained by Salmon river. At an elevation of 10,000 feet above the sen, 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- erul ledges, inviting miners who have been for years delving in the rocks and deépoiling the dense timber in the gulches and mountain sides. Threo Winters ago a friend kept the record of storms, snow fall and tempevature. That winter’s experience was enough for him, and in early March he walked out on snow shoes, resolved not 1o re- turn aguir to spend a winter theve, Eighty-six days’ continuous suows, mensuring as it foll ovor ninety feot in the aggregate, and packing down to nine foet on the level; seventy-eight days in which tho sub was seen but twice. and fifty-three days without a ray to cust o shadow. cprtainly was enough to make life gloomy, and yet there was the added danger of being in the track of a great snow slide, should one start in that locality. But go there in the bright days of summer and the scene enchanting. Great meadows of native grasses, enough trees to enliven tho landscape, flowers everywhere, un at- mosphere pure, clear and exhilerating, whifu numerous streams of hmpid, cold water, filled with trout, and several beautiful lakes muke thisa delightful summer resort for pleasure. Even in the warmest days the elovation and great patches of snow on the hills make o warm fire and heavy blan- kets comfortable at night. Bear, deer, wolves, antelope, fish, ducks and geese are so plentiful 4s to offer rare sport to huntsmen, It is over 1,000 miles by the Columbia, Snake and Salmon rivers 10 this land, from the Pacifie, and yet salmon trout and big salmon come all the way here from the oceun to spawn. At times the river is fairly alive with these migratory fish, while later, about this time of the year, the shore is lined with dead ones. RED FISH LAKES, Near the head waters of Salmon river, MIN. millions in This was some o, and when the | of which there are two at one place and another a few miles distant, are real curjosities. The one best known as Red Fish lake is a deop chasm in Lake gulch, noar the town of Suwtooth, It is nearly a mile wide and three miles long, with water so clear as to show sea or water weeds forty feet down. Its great- | est depth is not known, sinco a half- wile line failed to reach the bottom or give signs of tho “‘bob” haying struck { it The curious feature giving the lake its name is the appearance about the 10th of August each yoar of myrinds of red fish twelve to sixteen inches long which swarm in the lake, and rush up the creck a fow miles. After spawning and remaining in the lake and creek until in October, such ns do not die disappear as suddenly as they came. Going down Salmon river | one1s part of the time in a broad val- ley, but occasionally this narrows into a difficult canon. A friend four years ago had a small silver stamp mill which Lie wanted to remove up tho river only fourteon miles. It could not be taken overa narrow trail and there was no road, so it was loaded on wagons and taken by a roundabout course of roads OVER TIT HUNDI This incident illustrates culties of mountain travel. entnow sinco such men us have beon spoken of in this letter have con- structed roads by blasting out tho rocks and building bridges, making more di- rect routes of travel. There is no more delightful country to camp out in, hunt, fish and enjoy “grand scencry than along Salmon river, frow its risc in the wtooth mountains down to its union with Snake river, amid the canons iercing tho rugged mountains of the Seven Devils country, over five hundred miles from where the melting snow starts on its way to the sea. Most of this distance. on either side, the moun- tains ave eithor clothed with pine and fir trees, or else have fissures filled with minorals that will some day be ex- tracted and enter into the commerce of the world. Around Bay Horse, Clayton, in the Yankee Fork country (n tribu- to the Salmon). many mines have beén opened and become profitable, while there is a country around two by three hundred miles in_extent so ind cessible that but little is known of the great wealth it coutains, This vast rogion is destined to fall under the serutiny of prospectors, and in view of the wondors already revealed we are at a loss to ealculate what we may expect in its development.
