In some cases, the state laws have not sufficed to protect the animals, especially elk, from. selfish hunters, and a number have been killed, but the remainder have shown healthy increase, Park officials today expressed regret over reports from Burope that the Bu- ropean bison has been virtually exter- minated in the chaos following the war. The famous herd owned by Count Potock and other rare animals on his estate were slaughtered by the Bolshe- viki in their policy of destroying every- Rhing that could not be commonly owned. The ezar's herd of 700 in Lith- uania has heen reduced to 180 animals by deserters and poachers In the forest of Byelovitsa. More elk have been shipped from Yellowstono since last season than any other kind of game. During the har’ winter it was impossible to feed all the animals and to keep some of the elk from starving to death, donations were freely made. The government of Can- ada received 298, which were sent to parks in the Rockies, In return, the Dominion officials generously offered to send moose, goats and sheep to Yellowstone, but the offer was not ac- cepted because the Yellowstone, moose are of a different variety, the park has never had any goats, a fact which has. puzzled naturalists, and the mountain sheep already there are increasing sat- isfactorily. EXk also have been sent recently: to Minneapolis, Minn.; Kerrv! ile, ‘Texas; Palisades Park, New Jersey, tear New York City; Platt National Park, Sui- phur, Oklahoma; St. Louis, Mo.: Alen- town, Pa., Sonora Expertment Station, Sonora, Texas, and Pierre, S. D. Pre- viously large shipments were made to. mountain states in’ the West. Much ingenuity is exercised’ to trap the animals for shipment. In the case of elk, a trafl'of succulent hay is laid into_a, corral and’ Whienthe-elk have entered, the gate is closed by means. ofa rope, operated by a Ranger” hid- den some distance away. For two days the animals are kept to accustem them to men and then are shipped in specially fitted express cars, Buffalo, of course, come from the park’s noted tame herd, which now numbers more than 500 animals An- telope are obtained in the same man- ner as the elk. Bears forfeit their freedom in grat! fying their weakness for sweets. A cage trap is arranged with honey or preserves inside. The bear doesn't hest- ‘tate, once he gets a sniff. Straight into the cage he goes and the man se- creted on top then pushes down the door. The gase must be lined with sheet-iron, otherwise Bruin would tear the sides to pieces with his shart claws. It has happened that the same hear has been caught half ‘a dozen times. Only young, healthy animals are ship: ped out of. the park and in case an un- sultable specimen is obtained, the do: is opened to let him out. Frequentiy. howeyer, the sweets inside prove toa much and the bear, driven away, trots Wack in again and again. The industrious beaver is taken into camp in an ordinary trap. The dam is broken to expose the submerge en trance to the beaver house. . Pounding: on the side of the house then Crives the beaver out, straight into the trap. which has been placed across the door- way. In trapping animals, the most extra- ordinary care is taken not to jnture them. ‘Yellowstone National park is the nation’s greatest game - reserve, where more varieties of native «nimals can be. seen than anywhere else in the country and the pne place where many species, once numerous, can be found now. You may fish as much az you like, because the streams are restocked each year, but molesting the animals is visited with heavy penalties by law and poaching is a penitentiary offense. No firearms are allowed in the par¢ unless sealed dnd dogs accompanying visitors must be always kept in least. SEE BEN Automobile Stolen You-read it every day.

The other witnesses—repre- sentative citizens of Laramie, Albany jgounty and Wyoming—he intimated, had sworn falsely against him. His at- jtitude ‘was, expressing it mildly, un- tactful. Cordillo, a Denver Italian not yet, 21 years of age, came debonairely be fore the court for sentence. His bear-| ing might have been described as| jaunty. He did not even neglect the habit of so many of the class with whom he appears preferably to have associated, to talk out of the corner of his mouth. His attitude, if not “hard! boiled", at Teast was devoid of any sug-| gestion of softness. He -left the court} room, with a prison term of from 30! to 40 years ahead of him, still defiant— scowling darkly. ‘The minimum sentence to which Judge Mentzer might have condemned Cordillo was 20 years imprisonment,! the paste Hfe imprisonment.
