in the morning he strolled ont to his
cattle pen, be had a heavy load Of con-

ram, who seemed to take the Judges
visit rs al intrusion, and who conse-
quent!y bent his neck and presented his
head and horns 10 signal of displeasure.

fuses q good offer-and went for the
ran. It is needless to say it wss not as
successful as his Philadelphia speech
with the radical extremists. This time

have been good thing if the old ram
had made centre hi. and finished the
