house. Their hair makes a rope that is
indestructible by water. Their meat,
properly handled, is as good as mutton.
Their milk is better than the milk of
cows. 1t makes the finest of cheeses.
Their horns make fine knife handles and
are generally called "deer-horn" or
''buck-horn" for trade purposes. A goat
will butt its way through vicissitudes,
while a sheep will pine and die. Goats
have no chronic diseases. Sheep have
many. You can get start at goat herd
ing for a few dollars.
You can buy one buck and twenty-five
ewes for Sos. The ewes breed twice a
year bringing forth the first time one
kid and afterward from two to four.
Averaging the increase at four you will
soon have a great herd. Some ewes give
gallon of milk a day. have a personal
acquaintance with certain Harlem goats
who are the sole consolation and COM
fort of some of my aged squatter friends.
Their daily food is labels and theater
bills, with paste for a background. The
lazy negroes and poor white trash of the
South should be required by law to herd
goats. 1t is an occupation that would
suit their indolent dispositions as it suited
the trifiing shepherds of old. whose hard
est toll was playing the quilts and whoop-
ing. The feed of one cow will keep q
dozen goats, The goat is just as likely
to get to heaven as the sheep; I believe
he Is more so, because he is more indus
trious and independent.

ANTICS OF A HEAD.
Experiments with Discovered
Head on a Table.
From dc Raltimore sun.

From the baltimore sun.
Mr. Frank L. Perry, of Chicago for
merly of Baltimore, recently gave an en-
tertaining exhibition to a company of
guests at his house. He related a story
about an agreement of two friends during
the French revolution that If one of them
should be beheaded, the head, II II retain
ed consciousness, would wink three times
at the friend. One of them was beheaded,
but there were only two winks. MIR. Perry
dressed himself as Svengali and told his
friends that he would resuscitate a severed
head. Anew York paper describes the per-
Torrance as follows:
Svengah turned TO an old trunk, from
which he took round object swathed in
bloody bandages. The removal of the band
ages revealed human head, which Sven
gain explained had in life been worn upon
the shoulders of Trilhy's big brother. Set
ting the head on a table, Svengan pro-
eeeded to make hypnotic passes over it.
But Svengalfs mesmeric powers seemed
TO have lost their potency. for his most
elaborate gyrations produced no effect. A

INTERESTING QUESTIONS.
A Mother Sues Her Son For the Balance
on q Farm.

Judge Andrews and H. L. Schmitt
have been retained by the plaintiff in
an action commenced by Rebekah Mac
Manaman against her son. VIM. A.
Hinchley, both parties to the suit re-
siding, in Steel county. 1t is claimed
that many years ago the mother sold
to her son 100 acres of land, and in
part payment took two notes for $500
each, secured by a mortgage on the
property. Thirteen years afterwards
the son paid one of the notes This
was in 1894, and it is alleged that he
now refuses to pay the other, under the
statute of limitations. Several interest
ing questions are raised in this action,
which is brought to face the collection
of the other note. One is whether
the payment of one note revived the
other note or the debt independent of
the note; and the question Of the right
of foreclosure at this time also comes
in The mother is seventy years of age
and is said to be nearly destitute.

THIRTEENTH RECT. BAND.
Will Give q Concert in Mankato if Prop.
erIy Encouraged.

Mayor Currier has received letter
from w. H Eichman, manager of the
Northwestern Lyceum bureau, at Min
neapolis, saying that the Thirteenth
Minnesota regiment band is about to
start on tour of the state and asking
whether an entertainment could not be
arranged for this city, as it is directly
on the route to be travelled. The enter.
tainments are intended as series of
benefits, as half of the members of the
band are in need of money and have no
business prospects in view, and want an
opportunity to earn a living. This band
was in the Philippines and fought and
made music alternately. The program
which it plays is a varied one and
highly interesting. The band will
reach Mankato during the week of Nov.
9th, and it is desired that guaranty be
made by number of citizens. 1t would
seem that this could easily be done, as
such an entertainment ought to be well
patronized
