4 Plague Of Goats.

COMPLAINTS OF THEIR DEPREDATIONS on TREES IN THE
NORTHEASTERN sECTIoN-Two GOATS ARRESTED.
''Sw ampoodle" and Kendall Green, according TO
the police, are overrun with goats just now, and
the residents OF those portions OF the city are
entering daily complaints against them. The
goats have eaten the bark from many OF the young
trees planted along street, and probably killed
them so that new trees will have to be planted.
The animals are usually turned out ut night, and
on sunday, for then the poundmaster's wagons are
In the stable, and Government employees have holi-
day. Complaints came In so fast that the police
determined 10 put stop 70 the nuisance, and last
sunday the officers were notified 10 lookout for and
pick up all goats found at large. Oficers Skidmore
and Jamison were sent out at ! O'Clock, and IN an
hour they picked up two goats, which they took
TO the patrol box and held prisoners until the
arrival OF the patrol wagon. when they were
driven TO the sixth precinct station. To say that
the omcer In charge OF the patrol wagon objected
TO act as poundmaster, especially on such a rainy
day, would not express his feelings. However, the
goats were locked up and held until called for by
the pOundmaster.
The goats have for many years annoyed persons
living In the eastern section OF the city, but re-
Gently they have been worse than ever. A few
days ago il Is reported little girl was attacked by
one OF them and her dress nearly torn from her
IL Is an amusing sight TO see the poundmaster's
wagon start through "Swampoodle' looking for
goats Persons will run across the vacant lots and
catch the goats before the poundmen can drive
around the street corners, and In a few minutes
hundreds OF persons gather from their houses TO
watch the run.
