-Uuntiug the Wild Goat.

The White Goat or Rocky Mountain
Goat IA it Unfortunately called, is a
species OF z game rarely hunted by
sp%ortsmen. This ia not so much because
OF the difficulty OF killing the
animal nor because OF Its actual
rarity. 1t is n stupid animal, easily shot
when once found. 1t 10 not, however,
found in the usual hunting grounds, as
are bear, deer, elk, etc. 1t is remote from
the common localities, but where found
is in goodly numbers. 1t ranges very
high up in the mountains, above timber
line usually, among rocks and cliffs.
This requires great labor to get to it, but
once there the hunter will get his game
nine times out of ten.

PERMITS A LARGE SAVING.

covernmsnt Pension Agencies Reduced
From Eighteen to Nine.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The president
has signed, OF the recommendation Of
Secretary of the Interior Francis, an
important order reducing the number
OF pension agencies from Is to o, The
object of the order is to effect . very
large saving to the government with
out inconveniencing the pensioners.
The secretary demonstrates that by
this reduction Of the pension agencies
the cost of disbursing pensions al be
reduced by at least $3.50, 900 per an
mum. The change was made possible
by an amendment to the law govern
ing the disbursing of pensions, which
amendment was approved March 20,
1896. 1t required that all pensioners
should. after that date, be paid by check
RENTED by mail.
Reports from the pension agencies IN
reply to inquiries as to the operation Of
the new law were to the effect that
under it the pensioners are paid much
more promptly that the possibility Of
error is minimized, and that upon the
whole it is much more satisfactory to
the pensioners than the former law.
The agents also advise that the pen
sioners receive their pensions when re-
mitted by mail at their homes, where,
being
surrounded by Family Influences,
the pensioner is much more likely to
make a judicious disposition of his pen
sion money. This executive order will
40 into effect Sept. / next, its execu-
ton having been postponed until that
date in order that no p%ens,Oner should
suffer inconvenience Ill consequence OF
delay in receiving his pension, and to
give ample time for the removal of the
rolls and records from the agencies dis
continued. The consolidation was made
by uniting existing agencies and the
entire jurisdiction thereof in order that
no expense should be incurred by the
making of new rolls. Among the
changes of agencies are: The agency
of Milwaukee is discontinued and pay
ments are made from Chicago; those at
Des Moines from st. Louis, q new
agency being established at the latter
point, because of the better mail facil.
tiles there than at Des Moines.
