The herd.
Naturaiists expect big things from this buffalo
range. for. while the buffalo herd at the Bronx
Park has thrived. the close confinement neces-
sary there makes permanent breeding problem
atical. II is largely through the efforts of the
director. William T. Hornaday. that Congress
was led to make an appropriation of $4,000 10
fence off the Oklahoma range and maintain the
herd. The nucleus of the herd will be selected
from that now at Bronx Park but to prevent 100
much inbreeding animals from other herds will
be taken to Wichita as we'll. About twenty buff
faloes will be placed on the range On this con-
tinent at the present time there are said to be
only eighteen wild buffalOeS, eight in Alberta
and ten in the Yellowstone National Park
II is expected that the work of fencing off the
range-it will take fourteen miles of fence to
inclose the space-will begin at once in order
that the buffalOes may be shipped in the fall
That is the best time to transport them with
safety 1t is not thought that the cattle will
suffer from lack of shelter. as the range was at
one time a wintering place for the herds which
roamed the plains and hills of the Far west.

'In the beginning God created Thursday ISL

lecture before the Royal Geographical Society
The eX-Premer of Queensland intended to be

and are probably old the mightiest mon
arChs Of the Himalayas and Andes. The island
is composed of two tree crowned hills and
three other small mountains with plenty Of
rocks and little soil The population numbers
sixteen hundred odd. This is literally true. Tor
there two alike. 1t is probably the most
cosmopolitan population for the number oc IT'S

NOLAN AFTER DELAY.
Manitowoc Man May Be Trying for
Settlement,

Settlement.
Manitowoc, Wis, April 13.-James
p. Nolan was arraigned in the munic-
ipal court Thursday and was given a
continuance to April rs. Continuance
at first was asked for By his attorney,
Isaac Craft, until May /. District
Attorney Hougen consented, provided
the defendant would agree that the
case would be disposed OF then. No.
lan's attorney said it might be neces-
sary to ask for further continuance
then, at the discretion Of the court
The attorneys fnaly agreed on April
26, which would permit of second
delay for valid reasons, without ex-
tending the time too close to the
opening of the circuit court, June /.
Nolan's attorney stated to the court
that his reason for asking a continu-
ance was the hope of the defendant
that the case never would get to the
circuit court.
1t is thought now that a settlement
can be made although the amount in
volved is said to .e $4,000.
Nolan looked haggard. In jail he
is allowed the freedom of the sheriff s
Office and is not. confined to cell.
He sleeps in the jailer's bunk.
Creditors of Nolan met here and
went over the situation. 1t was al
legged that the imprisoned mans liza
bilities will foot up to nearly $4,000.
Nolan's brother, who is wealthy
farmer, advanced the accused man
$4,000 week ago to tide him over
some difficulties encountered with two
insurance companies, it is claimed.
If his liabilities were but half what
they are settlement could be made.
A civil suit is likely to follow the
specific case in which Nolan is
charged with embezzlement, to deter
mine who loses the $500 alleged to
have been appropriated fraudulently.
The alleged deal is one in which Law
renee Stettel of Franklin is said to
have paid $500 to Nolan as part pay
ment on principal due to Peter
Bleser and the question arises as to
whether Nolan was the agent of Stet-
tel in paying the money or OF Bleser
in receiving it.
