In Idaho aro found springs of nat
ural gas, which ore said to furnish one
of the niost remarkable sights of the
country. The springs aro about 100
miles from Boiso City, at the bottom
of a deep canyon. The rock there is
of a porus uuttiro and is perforated by
numberless small holes and fissures,
through which the gas escapes. These
gas jets of nature have been set on tire
at various times by tourists, until the
whole ground for the apaoa of an acre
or more ia covered with jett of flame.
It it a charming spectacle la the night.

A Feminine Lawyers' ( tub.
The Fortia Law Club, of Han Fran
cisco, was founded by women, its
members being all of the same sex.
The holding of a membership does not
necessarily iudicate any intention to
practice, the member generally de
siring rather to increase their knowl
edge sufficiently to make them self
reliant than to make a business of it.
The club has a dean, registrar and
faculty, and will, wheu completely
orgauied, have capital stock, shares,
admission fees and regular dues ac
cording to the plau observed in similar
clubs managed by men. Hitch, marked
success has Httcmled the affair since
the idea was first broached that there
can be little doubt f the I'ortin Law
Club becoming a permanent institu
tion of the leading city of the Pacific
Coast. It is the intention to invite
from time to time eminent lawyers to
deliver lectures before the members,
aud Mrs. Clara H, Foltz, the dean

fident that such occasions will draw

visit the city will, of course, be wel
comed. At all publio cersmonies of
the club Mrs. FoU will wear a cardinal
plush gowu trimmed with ermine and
a cardinal mortar-board on her head.
Later tin) member will all wear the
mortar-board. Their ultimate purpose
is to fuuud a law college for womeu.
