AngOra Goat Raising.

One of the industries to which
this country is peculiarly adopted,
and to which the attention of many
of our farmers and ranchmen are
turning, is that of Angora goat
raising. The greatly increased
CONSUMPTION of fabrics made from
mohair has stimulated this industry
during the past few years, and the
demand for that product has been
strong.
Lincoln county, as we stated first,
is peculiarly adopted to the goat
industry. The Angoras thrive and
do well wherever they can brouse
on grubs and brush. The rough
ness of the land is no hindrauce to
them, as long as they can find any
lhing to brouse upon. They do
not care for grazing, like sheep,
but they thrive on underbrush.
The Angoras arc not to be con-
founded with the ordinary Mexican
goat in their habits. The Angoras
are domestic animal. They will
return to the fold at night, and
need but very little care. About
the only time they need any care is
at kidding time, when the mothers
are apt to desert the kids if not
looked after. During the winter
time in this country they do almost
as we'll in the woods as they do in
the summer, and require but very
little, if any, feed.
They are valuable both from the
mohair which they yield and for
their meat. The average goat will
yield about four pounds of tnohair,
and this product is selling this year
for from IS to IS cents per pound.
Thus the very ordinary goat will
bring one dollar per year for its
clip, and in this country that is
nearly all profit. The flesh of the
goat is more highly priced as an
article of food by many than NUT
ton, and it brings about the same
price in the market. The goats
increase about as rapidly as sheep.
In addition to the above good
points for Angora goats they are
very valuable in a country like thi.
for cleaning up the brush. 1t is
said that 100 goats in brush patel
are equal to rs CHR amen. Goa
raising will be one of the grea
, industries of Our county in few
, years.

E. ]. McClanahan has been re-
lieved of his duties as deputy fish
and game protector" of Lane
county. He seems to have had
peculiar notions about his duties as
game warden. 1t appears that he
has tried to keep others from buying
and transporting deer skins during
the close season so that he might
monopolize the business himself.
The following is taken from the
late circuit court proceedings:

-he swiss Parliament.

A parliament at which the discus-
sions arc carried on in three different
languages is probably unique.
The country where this singular fact
occurs is we'll known'to English tourists
viz, Switzerland. But few, ! believe,
have ever had an occasion TO be present
at the sitting Of a Swiss parliament.
The languages spoken by the mem-
bors are French, Italian and German.
Italian, true, is not as often employed
as the other two, the members for Tes-
sin, e canton in the south, very often
delivering their speeches 10 French. AS
almost every educated Swiss speaks
French and German, members arc there
fore able 20 understand each others
speeches, although spoken in different
language TO their own.
1t also often happens that when a
French speaking member wishes to
make a stronger impression on the Ger
man speaking part Of the house he de-
livers his speech in German. and also
vice versa. -Pearsou' Weekly.

SHELL AND SHOVEL PILE.
A short story Of the Civil War rs Told
by an Old soldier.

by an Old soldier.
whenever 1 see a pile of shovels
stacked up on the sidewalk in front Of
a hardware store, said an old soldier,
lit makes me think of a pile Of shovels
I saw once stacked up at the end Of q
traverse in an earthwork at the time Of
the civil war. There were siege guns
and mortars Of one size and another in
batteries scattered along these works
in the particular battery that speak Of
there were two 100 pound rihed guns.
There was a traverse between the two
guns, and one on the outer side Of each,
traverse, you understand, being q
short ridge of earth running back from
the line in front and at right angles
with it, to protect the gun and tho gum
ners from lateral fire. This pile Of
sh0vols lay at the end of ono OF the OUT
or trsverscs, TO the left Of tho piece that
/ worked on. There were six or eight
men on the gun.
"A shell that came over from a Con-
federalo mortsr battery dropped square
on that pile of shovols and exploded the
instant is struck. Our own gun bad Just
been fired, and the men were all stand
ing scattered around to the rear of the
gun carriugc, mono of them far away
from the shovel pilo, and all of them
right i'm open range, not protected, rs
some Of them anyway would have been
o minute earlier, by standing over on
the other side of tho gun. with the gun
ana tn gun carriage between them and
tho shoyels.
1.-THE air was filed with smoke, and
fragments and splinters of she'll aud
shovols wero flying in All directions.
There wasn't o man but expected to
have his head Knocked OFF by a piece
Of Chcll, OF TO be cut in two by a shovel
blade, OF 40 least TO have the handle Of
o ahovel stuck through him. But the
fragments OF shell all few past, tho
shovels all came down, and the smoke
cleared away, and nobody had even q
scratch. Then the men all laughed and
went to loading the 100 FOUNDER again. "

Freaks of the Temperature and Topoe1s-
ply IN Son Francisco.

ply IN Son Francisco.
San Francisco sprawls over sandy
peninsula shaped like a clinched fist,
with its face TO the cast and the noble,
iandlccked bay which the navies Of the
world would not crowd, aYd with iis
sack to the Pacific ocean, which rolls
in without q break from China, 1000
miles away. 1t covers an area Of 30
square miles, though much Of this is
built over in straPglipg fashion. It has
thrice as many hills as Rome boasted
Of, but over the highest of these the ca
bic cars climb. Seen from the bay at
night, the spectacle is superb as the
streets are transformed into parallel
lines Of twinkling lights that seem to
ascend, like Jacobs ladder, TO the stars.
Justin Mccarthy in Lady Judith
gives the most poetical as well as the
most faithful picture Of this remarkable
sight of San Francisco from the bay.
Had the original builders Of the city
adopted the Italian custom Of carrying
streets around hills, with terraced gar
dons, San Francisco would be the most
beautiful city in the world. AS it is,
many Of the streets arc merely great,
unsightly bitches that run in ugly par
allel lines up the steep hills and through
their SUBMITS From n score of points
Of vantage ono may get superb views OF
tho bay, the harbor with its picturesque
islands, tho enoircling hills and tho
Golden Gate, the narrow entrance
through which come and 60 the ships Of
the orient.
What impresses the visitor to San
Francisco most forcibly is the peculiar
fondness for the bay window. But this
taste seems natural and sensible when
he is told that it is due TO the necessity
Of getting all the sunshine that can be
secured. Here as in Italy, between sum
shine and shade there is the difference
between summer and winter. The San
/ Francisco climate is the greatest eli
maio in the world for continuous work,
as the mean temperature is 60 and there
is no summer heat But it is q trying
/ climate for any one with weak lungs O
tender throat. The summer is harshei
than tho winter, as cold trade winds
and heavy fogs render the nights chilly
and mako q crate 1ro comfortable. Sep
tember is the finest month in the year
as the trade winds do not blow and thi
days are warm and sunshiny. -Chau
