OFF FLEW HIS GEESE.
They Have Gone South for the Winter or
Longer with Wild Flock,
(From the Minneapolis journal. J

(From the Minneapolis Journal
A farmer named Bldwell, living eleven
miles from Minneapolis, beyond the
Minnesota bottoms, tells a remarkable
story about some donestioated Canadian
geese that are his property. Mr.. Bidwell
is in Minneapolis with load OF poultry
and when the subject of goose shooting
was broached he had a few very interest
ing remarks to make about wild geese. =.
1.-TWO years ago. !" he said. "my wife's
brother, Fred Roach. came up from
Florida to visit me. Among the things
he brought along was a setting OF ten
Canadian goose eggs. He wanted to find
out how the birds would do in captivity,
and was little interested in the prob
lem, too. I set the eggs under big old
tame goose and she Matched out eight OF
them. Four got killed one way and an
other before they were very old, but the
other six reached maturity. Last spring
when theIflight of geese was going nortn
noticed that my gray fellows seemed a
good deal interested in them. One day
saw the lot rise up and circle several
times when q flock of wild birds was
going over. SO clipped all their wings
andsmade sure of them for the time be-
ing. meant to clip them again this
| autumn, but somehow, in the hurry OF
| the fall work, overlooked it. Besides,
the geese seemed to have got over all
idea of flying away, and I felt pretty se-
cure of them.
"Just about week ago l was fixing
up hay stack that had blown over, when
noticed big flock of wild geese coming
| from the north. They were away up in
the air, and going at q terrific rate. A
| flock of about sixty of my geese were
| feeding short distance from where ]
was at work. l did not notice the big
flock going south after giving one glance
at them, until, hearing their cries close
at hand, saw that they had been de-
coyed to my tame flock, and were ciroling
about over them. They had made about
TWO big sweeps, filing the air with sharp
calls. when my domesticated Canadians
| let go an answering cry and rose straight
up in the air. Two of the tame geese
went with them, and the others, after a
| numbering attempt at flight, settled down
| to earth again. The birds that had been
| Matched from wild eggs, with their two
tame companions, after making couple
of little circles, went straight for the
| flock, and the entire lot headed south to-
gether. ought to have clipped them
again this fall, but / didn't. and the
birds have gone. ~
1t will be interesting to see whether
Mr.. BidwelPs birds return to the farm
next spring. Bogardus, in his book on
shooting, refers to the easy DEMONSTRATING
ofawild geese, and cites instances of theiI
having gone south in the autumn only
to return with the spring flight to the
home of their youth
The Portland daily press., 1895-12-31

The Boston Herald points out that the
bond bill passed by the House is almost
identicals differing in no essential points
whatever, with the measure which Sec
rotary Carlisle recommended in his annual
report for 1884. But Mr.. Carlisle opposes
it Notwithstanding. The fact seems to
be that the President and his Secretary
thought that by getting the sound money
Democrats to vote against the bill it
could be defeated and the Republican
House held up to the country as unnwill-
ing to come to the relief of the treasury,
so Carlisle turned his back on consistency
and urged the sound money Democrat to
vote that way. But the administration
scheme for putting the Republicans in
q hole" failed to work. The bill went
through aud now the sound money
Democrats are in a very uncomfortable
Iredicament They have gone on record
against popular loan, and practically in
favor of the Presidents scheme to make
another dicker with the acknowledgment
syndicate which drove hard bargain
with the government year ago and will
drive another of the same kind when it
gets the opportunity.
