Special Dispatch Describes the Battle
at LadySmith.
LONDON, Jan. PA special dispatch
from the Hoofd lager at Ladysmith,
dated Jan. 8, describing the assault on
Jan. 6 upon Ladysmith, says:
""The British made no attempt to hold
the first line Of breastworks, but made
an exceedingly stubborn resistance at
the next row. Every inch was stub
bornly contested and conspicuous bray-
cry was displayed on both sides.
"After 10 O'clock the British artillery
fire slackened and a terrible individual
contest ensued among the ri1emen for
the possession of Piat-Rand ridge. At
oon a heavy thunder storm inter
rupted the battle, lasting for two
hours,
Although the bnrghers succeeded
in ultimately gaining possession of
most Of the British positions on the
western side of the Plat-Rand, they
were finally obliged to retire from most
Of the ground they occupied. The Brit
ish were most strongly entrenched,
their redonbts skillfully 1oopholed and
the combatants were so close that rifles
were frequently fred BIT arms length.
1t was a hand to- hand encounter. The
men on both sides fought like demons
and the horror and beWilderment Of
tbs scene caHaR scarcely be realized =

PLAT OF PROPOSED PARK.
]. v. Brewer Files His Report and Maps
IL With Goveruo or Lind.

L v. Brewer Files His Report and Maps
With Governor Lind.
ST. PAUL, Jan. IA report on the
Itasca state park by I. v. Brewer has
been filed with Governor Lind, field
notes of every section, maps of the dis
trict showing the ownership of each
parcel and plats Of the towns.
The report contains timber estimates
for the whole area, so that the state has
a basis for negotiations to buy the
lands i~nterspaced with it's present hold
ings. The allowance of $25, 900 will
not cover it all, but will be enough to
purchase the 'strategic points," Gov
ernor Lind says, and make a substan-
TALLY solid block.
Governor Lind does not believe the
scheme for a state park will ever carry
either o. the Cooper lines or on the
basis of reserving all the Indian lands.
''The counties would not agree" he
says, ''to have such large tracts taken
out OF their taxable area. But I am in
favor of extending the park far beyond
the present lines. Supplement the solid
block at Itasca by another at Cass or
Leech Or both, and then connect them
by stringing together a strip Of town
ships to make a continuous belt the
whole width of the timber country.
That would answer all the purposes
without sequestrating the region. I'm
in favor of such a park and I believe it
will be taken up."

PERSPECTIVE OF ICEHoUsE.

your ice in a solid block on top Of
this, filling all crevices with pounded
ice. If it be freezing weather, throw
some water over each layer, and it will
freeze and be united in a solid mass.
Build your ice eight OF ten inches from
the sides Of the pen, and as you build
it up tramp in your packing material,
whatever it may be. Build your ice as
high as the pen. Now over all put
plenty of sawdust, chaff Dr. anything
that will exclude the air, which is n
Of the principal factors in keeping ice.
Now put up a few rafters made Of
poles, spike them to the top rail Of the
outer pen, allowing them to extend
over a considerable distance. This will,
after the roo is on, shade the walls
somewhat and prevent the rain from
reaching the ice. The roofing material
may be of rough boards we'll nailed.
Now, according to an Ohio Farmer
writer, you will be surprised if you do
all this at the length Of time you a
keep ice, but if you wish a better
house this can be built as follows:
The first cut represents a more ex-
pensive house, with a vertical section
and plan Of foundation in the second
cut. This is not a very expensive house
and in the times of joist frames can be
kept up with a very little cash outlay.
The size Of building is IA feet over all.
First lay a foundation of cobble or
broken stone, and on this lay stills
made Of 2 by 8 joist spaced apart by
spiking in four inch blocks at the place
where studding is to be set, which
are 2 by s, using three on each side be-
tween the corner posts, which are
formed Of one 2 by 8 and two 2 by 6
scantlings. This gives a good chance
to fasten the lining at the orner The
height of building being eight feet, use
2 by 8 short pieces cut between each
studding for nail ties to fasten the
siding. Line up inside horizontally, fill
Ing the space between the sawdust as
you line up. Making the siding YER
tical and the lining horizontal Is sufi-
cient bracing for a building of this size.
The plate is Of a single 2 by s, spiked
well on top Of studding. The rafters
