He went off to the thana at Sambhal and laid informa- tion of what was going on, and an officer was sent from the thana, but when he arrived the dacoits had deâ€" camped. They went across country to Chandausi, where they put up at a room in the serai, and there divided the spoils. Curiously enough, in the next room to them at the sarai, were a thanadar, and a boy, but the police officer knew nothing of what was go- ing on} next door. After the .men had left the serai thei semi-keeper went and gave informa- tion to the police. The latter were’ too late to catch the dacoits at Chandausi.

They went to Golab Singh’s house, and to some extent ill-treated the wcmen,~ though none of them were seriously hurt. Finding Golab Singh absent, they looted the place and took away large quantities of cash and val- uables. Gclab Singh stated his loss at nearly rupees 14,000.

He took it to the Colonel, and so got three days’ leave. I At this point the story is taken up lby the approver, Aziz Mahomed Khan upon whose confession the case main- ly rested. He was first approached by ,Majidullah about six weeks before the occurrences. Majidullah told him that Golab Singh had ruined him, and ask- ed him: to assist in killing Golab. After some demur he consented, and some details having been arranged he ob- tained several days’ leave and went. to his home. However, for some reason or other the dacoity did not come off then, and at the end of his leave Aziz returned to his regiment. Then fresh arrangements were made and Majidul- lah told Aziz that a few days before the dacoity took place he would ar- range to have a telegram ‘sent to Aziz. purporting to come from his br0ther,i Ghause Mahomed Khan, a thanadar, to; the effect that his, Aziz‘s house hadl been robbed. This he could Show to. the Colonel and so get leave. This ar- rangement was carried out.

Golab Singh also obtained decrees against two’ male relations of Majidul- lah. In execution of these decrees he caused their property to be put up for sale on September 20, 1898. On that day, however, rupees, 1,175 was paid to him on account of the debtors, and the sale was put off.

A i few notes' are given in the last annual I l report of the Department of Lands, .New South ~'\"»'ales, regarding the PW‘; gross of the colonial Government int its efforts to cope with the rabbit pest. by the erection of arabbit fence. The first fence built was in 1897, and it extended from the Queensland border to the Mamoi River, a distance of about 115 miles. Since then the'Government has kept? up the work of fence building, and the number of miles of rabbit- proof fencing now erected in the col- ony is 17,280. The report is accom- panied by. a map, which shows that the fence has been extended along the entire western border of the colony. and along two-thirds of the northern boundary. The purpose seems to be to extend a rabbit fence clear around the colony to its frontage. It is a mod- ern China wall, erected to keep out, not barbarians like the ancient Mon- gols, but hordes of animal pests that threaten to over-run the land. l I l stimulated the ingenious and the cranks all over the world, and 1,800 schemes were submitted to the Govern- ment, but not one pf them proved to All of these varieties of animal life were ablerssing to the country except the rabbit. The man who suggests a practical scheme for getting rif of this nuisance will make his fortune. Afew years ago the Government of New South \Vales offered a reward of $125,000 for a feasible method of thorough exter- minaticn. that sportsmen unwittingly inflicted upon the new country. It is well known that: the Australasian countries are not: rich in native fauna. After the :British settlers began to arrive they 'gradually filled up the gaps in the i local list: of animal life by the importa- ' tion of new wild. and domestic species. Sportsmen introduced the deer, roe- buck, hare and rabbit. The pig was brought into Australia and New Zeaâ€"- land, and a part of his numerous pro- geny, escaping before the days of fences and pens, has become wild, and, thousands of wild pigs are killed ev-‘ ery year in the thickets. Many of the streams were stocked with salmon, trout and other species of fish from the mother country. Bird life was parâ€" ticularly scarce. and at great cost starâ€" lings, sparrows, blackbirds, thrushe-s, crows, larks and finches were intro- duced from ,England, quails from Cali- fornia and the grey partridge and pheasant from China. They have all be- come acclimitized, have multiplied pro- digiously, and in Australia to-day, a land of most peculiar and scanty na- tive fauna, the visitor from EurOpe and America hears the same birds warbling in the ,woods and encounters the same domestic and. wild animals as at home. tic, for' nothing flourishes on a grander scale than, the rabbit in his new home, and he has actually endangered the existence of other grass-eating ani- mals. The greatest efforts have been put forth‘ to exterminate him, but thus far without success. There is probably no other animal that supplies the mar- kets of the world with so many skins in a year as the rabbits of Australia, and New. Zealand. About 6,000,000 squir- rel skins of Siberia are sentJ to Europe annually, but in one year as many as 8,500,000 rabbit skins have been ex- ported from' Australasia, and still there seems to be no abatement of the nui- sance. i ’ Putting a Wall Around New South Wales to Keep Out the Pest. Everybody knows what a terrible pest the rabbit‘ has become in Australasia. This lottle animal is an imported evil in the British islands of the southern seas, for he did not exist among them until hel'was brought from England and turned loose to multiply in his new habitat. Unfortunately, he found his new surroundings most congenial, and so he has overspread all the habitable parts of Australia and New Zealand, and has, driven the people almost; fran- transaction Sessmns Judge, however, brushed all these alibis aside RABBIT FENCE IN AUSTRALIA.
