SIEGE COST $4,000 LIVES.
Persian Town Beset by Arabs Re
duced in Population to
That Extent.

Leland Buxton, who has returned
from a tour of several months in the
Persian gulf and In the Yemen, visited
Sana, which was recently besieged By
the rebel Arabs, says the London Tele-
graph. He states that he found Sana
to be practically depopulated, having
been reduced from population of 70, 00C
to something like 10000, as a result of
the famine during the Arab siege. The
Jews suffered terribly during this Pc
Rod and almost the whole town is de-
serted. Sana, which, so far as he knows,
has only been visited by few English
men, has magnificent and large build
ings, covered with decorations, and the
town is surrounded by mud walls. On
his way to the capital Mr.. Buxton found
villages had been destroyed by the
Turkish artillery, and that great por-
ton of the route to Sana was entirely
depopulated. Large numbers of skele.
tons and skulls marked the route.
The siege of Sana was attended By
terrible suffering and starvation, and
cannibalism occurred both among the
Arabs and the Turks. The people were
reduced to terrible straits, and one
Turk himself admitted that he had
killed and eaten three Arabs. The dogs
which are a characteristic feature OF
most eastern towns, had disappeared
both they and the cats having been
used as food. The only European in
Sana is an Italian trader, who was In
the place throughout the siege, and who
has lived there for 20 years.

MOTHS INVADE THE CITY
GAY BUTTERFLIES BY THOUS-
ANDs SWARM THRU PARKS AND
HOVER OVER GARDENS.

Hordes Of butterflies Of an unas-
signed variety have swooped down on
the city this week and much speculation
has been aroused as to the probable
damage they may do to trees and
shrubs if they are rot checked.
A characteristic of the moths is that
they display gregariors instincts by
flying in swarms: They may be seen
in the parks, private yards and even
over the trolley tracks. -
Superintendent of Parks Theodore
Wirth said today that he was at loss
to find a name for, the butterfly: He
had seen the swarms about the parks
and flying over the streets, but he had
not discovered that they were doing
any harm to the; park boards foliage.
However, he did not know what the
moths might do later in the season il
they were let alone. Mr.. Wirth will
look into the matter and will find out
just what the mission Of the iridescent
creature is. -
