ANTELOPE VANISH
BEFORE RIFLES Of
VANDAL HUNTERS
Canadian Government Moves
to Check Wanton SIaugh-
ter of Roaming Herds.

SWIFT CURRENT. Saskatchewan.
May 2s.-Indisnation has been aroused
among those interested in the con-
servation OF wild animals over the
slaughter by hunters Of at least half
the antelope in q large herd that
northwest of this town.
The herd lived unmolested for years
and at its maximum numbered 800
animals. Hunters began to make
clandestine raids on the herd last fall
and kept up their depredations dur
ing the winter. At the opening of
spring not more than $50 antelope
were left. ..
Prong-horn antelope. once rival Of
the bison in number on the plains of
North America, have been almost ex-
terminated. This is one Of the few
wild herds remaining on the continent.
when the Hudson Bay Company was
the sovereign power on the prairies
the land which IL is now rapidly SELL
ing to farm settlers swarmed with
antelope. Now only few hundred
are left of the hosts that once
glinted in the sun.
The antelope of the United States
have shared the fate of those iof Cam
ada. Except for a few fugitive bands
in desert wastes, all the wild antelope
have disappeared. The greatest herd
left on the continent Is in Yellowstone
Park under Government protection.
Small herds ais oare nourishing in
Government parks In Montana and
Oklahoma Antelope are prolific and
multiply rapidly under favorable con-
ditions.
The Canadian government has been
notified of the defamation OF the
Swift Current herd by hunters and
ask ed to take Immediate steps to save
the antelope from determination.

fNSW5l1EW YEARS day isn't what HHMg1lN It used to be. This is in HENSkH a small way attributable to A1S&H1H the addition to the Consti- ulLAYAyn tuition of some dry reading
 matter. In still greater part it Is because the International ob- session for celebrating whenever Fa- ther Time takes fresh start in pilot ing the earth around the sun is thou sands of years old. The manner of observing the day has changed greatly through the centuries
 The urge to give presents at least once a year was felt even before Christmas and Santa Claus came Into the scheme of things, and the an cient Greeks. Chinese. Egyptians and Romans rendered their gifts to one another on the first day of the year. Kings got into the habit of receiving extra gifts from their subjects pn these days and liked 1t so we'll they began extorting larger and larger sums. This practice got so bad in Rome under the Caesars that Clau- dius called a halt.
 It spread to other countries, how. ever. and the English had their New Years celebration spoiled annually by rapacious sovereigns until Queen Elizabeth's modest demands of her subjects cut gifts down to a mini- mum. In those days the celebration of New Years day had become world. wide. With variations to suit all na. tionalitles, 1t consisted everywhere of eating, drinking and motley msrri. ment
 Christopher Columbus. % far as is known, was the first white man Co Jubilate on New Years day in the western hemisphere. While hil ships were undergoing repairs on January l. 1493. he enjoyed a sumptuous din ner with two savage m0narchs on the island of Haiti After this meal, history says. the discoverer of Amer lea had his first smoke of tobacco. Whether he enjoyed 1t is not recorded, but he left 1t to 6 later generation Sir Walter Raleigh is generally cred ited with the function--to introduce tobacco to Europe.
 The Pilgrim Fathers and the first families of the older states of the Union enjoyed a quiet holiday as each year came around. They feasted, but not until they had attended re- ligious services.
 For 25 years up to the dawn of 1920 and the era of wartime pro- hibitiOn. the celebration in large cit. les became noisier and more expen- sive each year. Thousands used to crowd Into places of merriment, while principal thoroughfares were packed with throngs of merrymakers with squawkers. clappers. bells and confetti.
 Every hotel and most of the res taurants were iammed with gay diners. In 1908 il was estimated that S1,0OO,00O was spent in the New York white-llght district on New Years eve. After that statisticians gave up try. ing to figure out the sum.
