BETThn sOLDIARs ~ INDIA.

England doesn't mean to be caught
mapping in India. Lord Kitchener is
evidently bent upon the reorganization
OF the British Indian forces from the
very bottom. He is now engaged upon
plan for the elimination of all unwar-
like races from the native troops, whose
fighting value is known to vary
greatly. Permission has been granted
to him to get rid of the unsatisfactory
men, of whom a large number are in
the Madras infantry battalions, and
add a. corresponding number of good
fighting men to the skeleton forces in
other districts. In submitting his pro-
posals, Lord Kitchener impressed up
on the government OF India the unde-
STABILITY of maintaining in the ranks
men whose military qualities are doubt
full at a moment when the supply Of re-
cruits of the best possible stamp in
other parts of India is equal to all de-
mands. The idea should be, he said, to
so order matters throughout the Indian
empire that every unit. British and ma:
tive. should be in a condition to take
the field at shortest notice. This state
of perfection could never be brought
| about if enlistment continued from
races which are VIGOROUSLY unsoldier.

mn. RoGnns rs STILL DEAD.

Yesterday the papers were full Of the
good news for Mrs. Rogers, the Ver-
mont murderess. We were told how it
was carried to her by a tender-hearted
sheriff, who was overcome by emotion
when he received it. There were 9TH
ers around who were also overcome by
emotion. Mrs. Rogers was, it appears,
able to maintain her composure. She
said the governor was good man,
and she, thanked the sheriff and his
companions for the information they
brought her. She seemed unaffected by
the tidings and as the party moved
away from the death cell she returned
to the table and resumed her writing.
we haven't heard that anybody has
shed a tear lately oyer the awful fate
Of Mr.. Rogers. Perhaps he shouldn't
be entirely forgotten in the present
teary and joyful time over the reprieve
of his widow. So let us take minute
or so from weeping and rejoicing over
her good luck to remember that Mr..
Rogers went to meet his wife at her
invitation. When he appeared she
greeted him affectionately After a
pretended reconciliation had been eff
fected Mrs Rogers drew from her
breast a piece Of rope and told her
husband that she had learned a new
game and that she would show 1t to
him. Tying his hands behind his back
she had him lie down with his head
in her lap. While caressing hirl she
slyly took a bottle Of chloroform ,ut Of
her pocket and saturating her hand
kerchief applied the anesthetic to his
nose and mouth. Rogers managed to
say: Mamie, what is this? It smells
like chloroform." She pressed the
handkerchief tighter to his face and APP
piled more chloroform, at the same
time wrapping her shawl over her own
nostrlls TO prevent herSelf from Delng
overcome by the fumes. AS the dying
man struggled to get away, Perham,
the accomplice, seated himself on
Rogers feet. Death ensued within a
few moments. The rope was taken off
and Perham and Mrs. Rogers threw
the lifeless body into the river. Mrs.
Rogers then wrote a note to make it
appear that her husband committed
suicide.
OF course Mr., Rogers is still dead
and just as dead as he can be, and
| Mrs. Rogers is still alive. So perhaps
there isn't any use wasting any SYM
pathy on Mr.. Rogers.

SOME INTERESTING work.

What is already being done some and
will be done much as time goes on is
indicated by the fact that Mr.. Alison,
chief inspector of fisheries of New Zea-
land, has arrived in this country for
the purpose of gathering 100000 east
ern white fish eggs and 100000 salmon
eggs, for bis government. He will also
convey across the Pacific 10000 land
locked salmon eggs, presented to New
Zealand by the Bureau of Fisheries,
Washington, D. c., and consignment
of bronze wing turkeys. Inspector
Moorhouse, who represented New
Zealand at the St. Louis Exposition,
will shortly leave for home with con-
signnent Of twenty elk, twenty-four
Virginia deer, five black tail deer, some
raccoons, and large number of Cana
dian geese, and wood and other ducks.
Ten Of the elk were presented to the
colony by President Roosevelt. The rest
of the consignment was purchased by
the New Zealand government. These
! animals and birds are for liberation in
the colony.
BY and by fishes, animals and birds
will be pretty well distributed, and ii
they increase and multiply well there
will be a large addition to the worlds
resources.

WINTER ON A BIG GAME PRESERVE

The price of success In the manage
ment of a game preserve is continual,
careful and Intelligent forethought. I
am constantly reminded of this fact
as I note from week to week the work
which goes quietly along in the Blue
Mountain Forest, commonly known as
Corbin Park, near Newport, New
Hampshire, the largest fenced game
preserve in America. To tell of the
work which is done in the course of a
year inside the thirty-five miles of
fence which marks the boundary of the
vast Enclosure, would take much more
space than is allotted to this article,
but will try to enumerate few of the
operations which have been going along
during the last two months.
With the first heavy snow fall in
November came the question of feeding
those animals which would soon be I'M
able to find sufficient food for them
selves. The deer, elk and wild boar
were not dependent upon food which
grew upon the ground and which was
now buried beneath the snow, and
moreover they were fat and in .unusu-
ally fine condition owing to the heavy
crop of apples of which they had been
feeding for many weeks. But the But
faloes were taken charge of at once.
Not that there was any immediate dan
ger but buffaloes depend largely on the
food they can get upon the ground, and
besides these animals are now too rare
for any chances to be taken with the
finest herd in the world. Down in the
southeastern part of the reservation,
in an enclosure known as Central Sta
ton or No. l, large yards have been
made as winter quarters for the buff
faloes, and here, once the animals are
rounded up, it is a comparatively SIM
pie matter to feed them. But twenty
four thousand acres is a large place,
and buffaloes are not given to taking
orders from any one, so it is not the
easiest thing in the world to persuade
them to seek particular part of the
preserve and allow themselves to be
shut up in the buffalo yards However,
it is well known that buffaloes once
started along a trail which they have
been over before are very apt to stick
to that trail unless there is some good
cause for their leaving it,
So, when one day about the first of
January, the men who had the work
in hand, surrounded the main buffalo
herd on a. plain in the northwestern
part of the park, they gently urged
them towards the entrance to a trail
and into this the animals turned. Five
miles away the trail reached point
to which a farm wagon had been
driven, and when the buffaloes arriy-
ed they found little hay waiting for
them. They quickly ate it, and just
beyond there was a little more, and
little more beyond that again. The
hungry animals walked along, pick
ing uD the hay as they went, and ma
turally enough, after they had travelled
thus for ten miles, they found them

selves at nightfaH on the other side Of
the mountain and about five miles from
the buffalo yards. Here in some open
fields they halted for the night and
the men who had surrounded them
went home. On returning early the
next morning they found most of the
buffaloes picking up scanty meal from
patches of bare ground to be seen here
and there, but two cows with their
well-grown calves were missing. They
had gone back over the mountain dur
ing the night, and were overtaken five
miles away. 49,
In the meantime the main herd was
urged and led quietly along to large

We're easily driven into the buffalo

by William Morrison, expert in the
breeding and handling of buffaloes, and
he divided them into groups according
to their age and sex. In the first yard
We're placed all the calves of the pre-
vious spring; in the second, a number
of old bulls: in the third, young bulls
and heifers, and so on through seven
or eight enclosures.
The buffaloes are so warmly clad in
/ their heavy winter robes that they re-
quire no shelter, even in the most Sc

is long shed which prevents the hay
on which they are fed at this season,
from becoming buried in the snow. Each
shed has a loft in which the hay is
stored, and from which it can be tossed
| down into racks below. Each full
grown buffalo eats about three tons
during the winter: each calf consumes
about half a ton, and his allowance of
hay increases about half ton winter
| with each succeeding year until he
reaches maturity. In this way the ami
| mails will be provided for until May,
when the entire herd, including the
| cows with their young calves, will be
turned loose to wander at will over

RUSS1A,S VAR EXPENS RS,

Russia isn't very rich, and her war
expenses are such that she will not get
rich quick. A responsible Russian finan-
csal official says that UP to November
% the war had cost Russia $23s 600, 900.
The grants made for the continuance
Of the war from November 20 up to
February IA were $126, 1000. The total
is $364000,O00. This is current expendi-
ture in a period during most of which
the large forces sent to General Kuro-
patkin had not yet been modified. 1t
does not include the loss of capital in
vested before the war in the large feet
destroyed or captured at Port Arthur,
invested in that fortress and it's arma-
ment, and invested in Dalny. If these
items be added the waste Of the first
year of the war can hardly fall under a
half billion. The current expenditure
in the first year, as stated by the finan-
cial official, was at the rate Of about
81, 100000 day. Now that General Ku-
ropatkfn has an army reputed to num-
Der 10000 to maintain at Mukden, and
Admiral Rojestvensky's fleet is being
maintained at vast expense in the In
dian Ocean, the expenditures during the
remaining days of the war are likely to
exceed largely the rate of the period of
preparation.
The cost of the Baltic fleets venture
is suggested by the fact mentioned in
the last report of the Cardiff coal ex-
mort trade, that as much as $50 a ton

The Belgian factories have hit on a
scheme of getting rid of black smoke
and at the same time utilizing it. The
smoke is driven by fans into a. porous
receptacle. over which flows stream of
petroleum or similar liquid. The smoke
is thus caught and turned into gas that
gives great heat, and can be used for
running gas engines.

( A good fish story is good anytime. 1t
Is related that ever since Rice lake in
Minnesota, was frozen over, it has
been noticed that narrow channel
was always open at the thoroughfare
leading into Alder Lake. Tom Miller
early one morning noticed that a thin
coating of ice had formed during the
night. While looking at it he was as
tonished to see a big muskallonge start
from the east shore and, acting for all
the world like a tug bucking heavy ice,
breaking it's way to the other shore.
Reaching that, the big fish, which, ac-
cording to Miller, must have weighed
seventy-five pounds, started back,
trimming up the rough edges of the
channel. Mr. Miller says it was the
most remarkable sight he ever wit
messed. -
