EXCEPTION.
"There Is excepted from the provi
sions of this ordinance all restau
rants, hotels and workshops.
"Section 2. That any person or per
sons violating the provisions of this
Ordinance shall, upon conviction there
of, be fined In a sum not exceeding
the sum of $100,
"This ordinance shall take force end
be In effect 10 days after Its passage,
approval and publication."
NO SAVING AT THEATRES.
Opposition to the ordinance was
voiced at the council session by rep
resentatives of the theatres ee well as
the cigar store men. Manager Oell
gher of the Majestic Amusement com
pany, operating the Majestic, Strand
and Empress theatres, and W. A. Men
denhall of the Plnney theatre, present
ed a protest to the proposed regula
tion which would have allowed the
theatres to bo open only four hours
In the evening. They declared this
would menu only a loss to the the
atres by putting their employes on
half shift, and no saving of fuel be
cause the houses must be heated all
day anyway. They also showed that
four hours to be open really meant
two and a half hours' business as
against nine hours allowed other busi
ness houses. As a result of the pro
test, theatre hours, proposed to be
fixed at from 7 to 11 o'clock, were set
at 2 to 11.
ALTERNATIVE DECLINED.
H. It. Neltzel of the Bannock Motor
Sales eompany and Manager Crltes of
the Interurban confectionery store,
proponed that things stand as they are
until after the holidays, there being no
present famine, and that a "fuel holi
day" be declared early In January. The
council took the position, however, that
a famine Is threatened, and that legal
means to ward against It must be pre
pared at once. Fuel Commission Frank
KELP TO TRAPPERS
0. K. HUort, Pioaoor Idaho
Trapper, Indorse* Flans of
Nowly-aroatod Idaho Game
Brooders' Association.
Valuable fur bearing animals caught
by trappers unable to car* for them
properly will be saved to tbs state
through the medium of the Idaho Oates
Breeders' association's proposed farm
In Jerome county, which can take the
animale and care for them for the
trappers until they are ready for the
market, C. K. HJort, for 90 years an
Idaho trapper, said today in an Inter
view In which he took occasion to lend
hie Indorsement to the proposed game
farm as one of tbs best enterprises
ever planned for the benefit of the
state's fur resources.
Few people have any Idea of the ex
tent of the fur trapping business In
Idaho," said Mr.'HJort "And that
business Is bound to beooms more and
mors Important, because of the greater
prises for furs and because of the na
tural adaptability of Idaho to raising of
furs.
"Aside from its value as a prop*
tlon farm, the Game Breeders' farm
can b* used as a clearing houae for
trappers' stock, end will no doubt be
the greatest aid to the Idaho trapping
Industry that has ever come to the
state."
Illustrating the Increase In prices of
fure that has taken place In the last 20
years, Mr. HJort compared with a re
cent fur pries catalogue the price be
got on a consignment of Idaho furs 90
years ago when he entered the busi
ness In the northern part of th* stats.
The furs In 1*99 brought him the rum
of $11*2. The same furs today would
bring $14,900.
"It Is fortunate for th* state that
the gam* breeders' farm has been
started, because some of our most val
uable animals will be extlnot within a
few years unless there Is some means
of perpetuating them In captivity," said
Mr. HJort_
Martin reported that coal oars are not
now being moved on the D. ft R. O,
whence Boles derives Its supply, and
that Indications are not promising for
better conditions very soon.
Fuel Commissioner Edwin Herring
ton, In direct dally touch with the con
sumption and the Issue of permits,
declared that the people of Boise have
been,consuming coal as fast aa It has
been received by the dealers, and that
an Interruption of shipments would
soon bring an acute shortage.
