SIEGE OF LADYBRAND RAISED.

ATTACKING BUTCHERS FAIL TO GAIT re
THE LITTLE GARRISON
Cape Town. Sept 5.-The siege Of Ladybrand
has been raised after several desperate attempts
to capture the town and its little garrison OF
one hundred and fifty British troops The Beers
who attacked Ladybrand are estimated 70 have
numbered over two thousand men. The British
were summoned TO surrender on September :,
but refused, and from that time on were sub
jected 10 continual cannon and rifle fire Inc
burghers twice tried 10 rush the British position.
Probably the approach OF a relief force saved
the little garrison
The arrival here OF four Of Lord Roberts's
chargers is taken to be an indication that the
Commander-in-Chief Will soon return 70 Eng

Some Good Suggestions.

! warden Tor &Gnc SGaGe OF 1udhO3 WIS
In Salt Lake few days ago. Mr..
ATbuckle holds the distinction Of
being the first game wardenappoint-
ed for the state he represents, and
has held that Office with due dill
gence during the past two years.
When seen he stated that there
were lots of improvements needed
yet in Idaho before he could con-
slider that bis work was of any ma
terial benefit. In course of further
conversation he said:
'sIdaho can essentially be said to
be the frontier State OF the Union.
At the present time ] guess we have
more game than possibly any other
state in America, but if 1t is not
protected it will all be exterminated.
Naturally | am considerably handi-
capped in the matter; the Indians
give considerable trouble hunting
for hides, while some of the parties
which come in from the cast on
hunting expeditions kill game ruth
lessly. In my opinion the system
of deputy wardens in vogue is
failure. They get no recompense
for their trouble with the exception
of percentage on the fines paid III
case of conviction. In a great num-
! Der of cases too deputy is not GO
ing to stir up trouble among his
neighbors. I shall suggest in my
report to the Legislature when it
gets into session, that the protection
of fish and game in Idaho shall be
made self-supportlng, after the
fashion in vogue in the state of
Maine, which, in my opinion, has
! the finest set of game laws in the
country. | will suggest that all
deputies receive a stated salary and
expenses. That there be license
put into effect, say 81, for residents
and $50 for non-residents in the
state. After all is said and done it
is these eastern people who come
out west on a hunting expedition
who kill off the game. | will also
suggest that the open season for
shooting elks be made shorter. At
the present time it extends from
September l to December and
when the snow is deep shooting
elk is just like getting into a herd
of cows and shooting them down,
for all the sport there is in it."
It would not perhaps be in good
taste to reproduce the stories he
tells regarding trout and river sal
mon that are to be encountered in
the region of Lake Henry, while
his account of the elk, mountain
goats and sheep that amble around
Fremont county, asking to be shot,
are enough to bring tears to the

all Of the immense quantity consumed IN

one Of the largest food exporters to South
Africa today, "in forming a just esti-
mate of the preparedness of the Boers

inexhaustible supply of powder and
