bill.
Rack said the minority had report
| to make also.
Teller introduced resolution direct
ing the secretary of the interior to in
form the senate of the general line of
location of the Northern Pacific rail-
4 road. and what changes the company
have made in their general line of loca-
ton up to date; also, what lands have
been withdrawn from settlement in
favor of said company, and how such
changes affect the rights of settlers.
Adopted.
Maxey submitted resolution for
the military committee to inquire into
the expediency of authorizing that
worthy and meritorious non-commis-
stoned army officers he placed on the
retired list after thirty years of honora-
BILE service, pay and allowances to be
properly regulated. Adopted.
On motion of Teller, bill granting
right of way through public lands to
the Cheyenne, Black Hills and Mon
tana railroad and telegraph company,
was taken up. The second section au.
thorizes the company to raise money on
mortgage bonds.
Edmunds thought that as the corpo-
ration was organized under the terrific
rial laws of Wyoming, permission or
prohibition to issue bonds shonld come
from the territorial legislature and not
from congress, and on his motion the
second section was stricken out
Teller said that with the second sec
tion stricken out, probably no capital
lists would care to invest money in the
enterprise. The bill would be useless,
and he therefore moved its recommit-
tai to the committee on railroads
Agreed to.

What a Goat Can Do.

Maybe there is never anv exc;temor4
at the West End, but yeu can't make
the people who saw colored gentleman
try to lead goat through that district
the o, her day, believe it. At first the
goat didn't want to go, and the colored
gentleman, who was about ten feet ahead
OF the animal, pulled vigorously on the
rope. He had just got his whole strength
on 1t, when the got changed his mind
and started forw ard so suddenly that the
cOlored gentleman didn't have time to
recover his balance and went down, and
as the goat ran past him and kept run.
ming, he was dragged along, clawinr
wildly, until his head collided with q
lamp post and he brought the procession
to halt. On regaining his feet the
colored gentlemen was very angry, and
ran for the goat to kick him, and the
goat took to flight, and they flew at a
rapid pace down the street. About five
rods ahead, the goat observed a citizen
bending over to look down an open coal
hcle, and reaching him the goat con.
trived to hit him Just under the hin
pocket, and the citizen disappeared down
the coal hole like shot, just as the col
ored gentleman stumbled over the GOAT,
which had come to halt. A number
OF people had gathered about, and then
the goat took notion to turn the other
way, and he got the rope SO entangled in
peoples feet that seven were upset and
much blasphemy resulted. The mon
down the coal hole then attempted to
climb out, and got his head and shou!,
ders above ground when the goat made
another rush at him, and he had to
dodge down again. And then the goat
assaulted his owner, who went up LIMP
post, and then the goat went for another
man, and, as the owner had tied the rope
to his belt, he was yanked off that lamp
post quicker than powder Fortunately
for him, his belt broke, and he splang to
his feet and took off toward Harvard
College, yelling fire, and the goat sud
denly jumped into an open window,
scared woman into fainting fit, and
upset table on which stood dish of
hot water. He got most of the water
upon himself, and, made more frantic by
pain, jumped out of the window again,
butted bulldog and stove in three OF
the CANNES ribs, and then disappeared
down the street amid cloud of dust,
just as policeman came around to shoot
him. And the man down the coal hole
came up with awful expressions on his
face, and in his language offered $7J to
any one who would tell him whom to
sue for damages.

The Terrible Octopus.

The ferocity of the octopus is undeni.
able; but doubt has hitherto been cast
on the old stories which represent this
unpleasant creature as being in the habit
Of seizing and swamping boats. 1t is
admitted by scientific naturaists that
the hideous thing, known to the ancient
world as the polypus, and to modern
boatmen as the cuttletish or squid, at
tains to portentious size and strength
in the warmer seas, and is very power
full and even dangerous. Its verocity
and the peculiar violence with which it
attacks and rends its prey are well
known to those persons who have seen
it, weakened by captivity, and rendered
less eagerly ravenous by the abundance
of food ready to it's thousand hands. To
speak by the card, these number $50 in
all, and are rather to be called fingers
than hands. But what fingers! Each
is powerful sucker that expands and
contracts with rapid and ever-changeful
motion, and there are l20 Of them to
each of the s long, writhing, restless
arms. With eyes fixed on its adversary
and with parrot-like beak advanced for
the encounter, this most unsightly of all
living things inspires awe by its loathli-
ness not less than by its actual power
TO harm. That it will turn and tasten
upon human being, if angered or men
aced with capture, Is well established
fact; and recent occurrence reported
from Adelaide goes far to revive the old
belief that polypus will venture on at
tacking the hull of boat. A telegram
from Port Elliot, published in the South
Australian papers, states that on the
Goth of August last, trooper Bruce
and man named Edward were out in
the bay near Lipson's island, examining
a piece of wreckage, when their boat
was encirC.ed by the tentacles of large
octopus ard pulled over till it was half
full of water, and in great danger of be.
ing swamped. The occupants escaped
with the utmost difficulty"

A mouse recently intruded itself into a
ladys chamber, and found upon the
toilet-table small vial of whisky, which,
it is but fair to say, the lady used for the
benefit of her cramps. The vial was
stoppered with paper cork, which, of
course, was saturated with whisky. The
mouse nibbled off the top Of the cork, and
finally succeeded in drawing it, and then
RECALLED itself with what the paper had
absorbed. Under the stimulus thus Sc
cured, it had made its presence in the
room very evident, and a careful search
for it was promptly instituted. 1t was
soon discovered in the drawer of bu-
reau, stretched at full length on a COM
