Laws rard to Enforce.

but very hard to enforce. AS an illus
tration OF the spirit which animates
those in charge OF the game, MIR. VIII
Jams told me the following story: A
trapper was suspected OF killing wa
pitt just outside ths reserve. and the
ranger asked Mr.. Williams II he
might make special trip into the
reserve in midwinter to try and catch
him. as he fancied that the suspect
would wait until the worst season Of
the year. fancying himself immune
from pursuit. Accordingly the ranger,
accompanied by a second. travelled
over $50 miles on snowshoes over
ground covered with from feet To
S feet OF snow with or inches OF
soft snow on top They crossed big
range OF mountains at an elevation
OF 5000 feet, with temperature about
30 degrees below zero. found the re-
mains of a wapid in one of the trap
per's huts, followed the trail. caught
their man, took him ont with them
Occupying three days in doing so and
having 10 pack everything them
selyesl and within half an hour OF
reaching civilization had obtained a
conviction. The trapper was fined
$3.50 for killing wapiti and $50 for
killing mule deer The effect OF such
an example is incalculable. az poach-
err never knows when he is safe. Any
one and everyone who infringes the
game laws is prosecuted. Last year

THE MEETING OF THE HEROES

By far the finest thing at the Get tysburg reunion-Where the tents of north and south were pitched side by side on the old battlefield--was not the official celebration. nor the spec Itacular multitudes, nor the eloquent addresses. The finest thing of it all was the splendid spirit of cOmrade- ship. the spontaneous flowing together of the hearts of brave men in that deep and true friendship Which-- is possible only among the brave. Fifty years have passed since the guns of Gettysburg became silent; but the pie ture of that decisive field, and of the grand struggle that reached 9 climax there. has never been forgotten. Those white haired heroes, meeting together once again on the old familiar camp
 ing ground, gave to the nation noble object lesson in the magnanimouS friendship of great soulS-a friendship sanctified by suffering and with the charm of that feeling of mutual ap- lrreciation which gallant foemen feel toward each other. They had become fully reconciled during the melloWing years They had learned to take the wider and nobler view, that the man who is ready to die for what he be- lieves to be right, is worthy of all honor This was the spirit that pre- vailed among the seventy thousand veterans at Gettysburg and which stamped it's character upon the whole event.-The Christian Herald.
