This is the story OF Farnsworth' S

inclined to believe that he has been

even jocularly. He is 81 years old, and
not bad-looking man. Occasionally.
when he gets excited, he shutters lit

hair and mustache. His forehead is eX-
traordinarily high, and his mouth has
nervous twitch sideways. His eyes
are big and brown and sunken sharply
in his forehead. They shift all the time
uneasily from one object to another.
He has the sleek tongue of a lightning

apparently never occurred to him as
anything more than a peccadilla, an I'M

While Joe was showing his fishing party
to the best places in the Rangeley lake
chain for trout he received a letter from
home telling him that his razorback pig
had been shot by hunter, who had
mistaken il for white hedgehog. The
letter added that the hunter was willing
to pay for his mistake as soon as he
could learn the value of the hog. Joe
threw up his job with the fishing party
and fastened to Eus It's, where he sought
out the hunter and settled with him.
His price was one bottle of rye whisky,
which was promptly paid.
Two days later g. young man wearing
golf stockings and a snuff-colored
sweater called at the door of Joe's cabin
and asked if there were deer in the
neighborhood. Joe replied that there
were plenty and gave directions to the
young man as to the best way to cross
the country. With many thanks the
young man started out across the field
and soon came across Bullet, who was
eating leaves from a birch tree. The
hunter was about to shoot when the calf
took a leap over the fence and was away.
The nan from New York thought that
Il = had at last struck luck and FASTENED
try in the state of Maine the calf and
hunter went until 10 miles had been
covered. Then the calf, Disguised that
he had wandered so far away from
home, stopped to look at his pursuer.
AS he turned his head the hunter
pumped two chunks of lead into the
body and the calf fell dead. No sooner
had the calf dropped than over the fence
came Joe, putting and red in the face.
Approaching the hunter. Joe said
things. and finally demanded ten dol
lars. It was paid cheerfully. Joe took
the remains of Bullet to his home, and
in his back yard, over a'Gttle mound Of

''Sh-sh-sh! Archibald, your must really

Say anything l want to-" replied the
fair flower of angel childhood, and he
reached over the seat in front and gave
tug at the hat of another little five
year-old boy who was sitting beside his
mother. behaving himself and attend
ing strictly to his own business. The
quiet little chap in front looked around
when he felt his hat, which was fas-
tened to his chin by a rubber band, be-
ing tugged at. Then he very DELHI
erately stood up in his seat, turned
around, and both of his tightly clenched
little fists shot out at once square from
the shoulder, with really catapultic
force, considering the size of the lad,
and both OF them landed simultaneous
~ on the two sapphire eyes of the little
devil of Caliban in the rear seat.
Don't you monkey with me any
more, or I'll break you in two" said
the little chap in the front seat, quietly
but firmly, resuming his seat. The pro-
found satisfaction of all the passengers
except the slugged Archibald's mother
was made obvious by their prolonged
grin. The undisciplined lad in the sailor
suit stuck to his seat and walled dis
mally until his mother lifted him off at
the transfer station.

FOOLED BY A CALF.
New York Hunters Ludicrons Mis-
take Up in Maine.
Bullet, q Plush Raspberry Red Jer-
sey of Ugly Disposition, Led
Deer Slayer a Chase OF is
Miles, and Was Shot.

According to the Eustis (Me.) CORE
spondent of the New York Sun, Bull
let, the plush raspberry red Jersey calf
which for the past three months has
sent terror to the hearts of the farmers
in this region, is dead. He was shot last
week after leading a New York sports
man a chase for IS miles over the rock
lest and thickly wooded part of the
state, and now lies buried in Joe's back
yard. A slab has been placed over the
calf's grave, giving the details of the
killing.
Joe owns a farm on the outskirts of
the settlement, and lives the years out
by cooking in the lumber camps during
the winter, going on the drives, spend
ing a few weeks on his farm of three
acres in the spring, and then he puts in
the summer and fall guiding fishing and
hunting parties who happen TO hit the
town from the city. He came from Que
bee about ten years ago, and with his
wife and eight children made their home
in log cabin 14X20 feet in size. Since
times became prosperous Joe has added
to his building, until now he has room
enough to put up an occasional hunter
over night for a compensation. Joe had
no barn in which to keep his live stock,
which this spring consisted of Jersey
COW IL years old and steer calf of I'M
certain pedigree. The cattle and the ra-
zorback pig live together in a cave a
short distance from the house when the
weather is cold. On warm nights, how
ever, the animals have been allowed to
remain in the field, but Joe will put a
stop to that hereafter.
When the LIST of September came
around this year Joe was with party
of fishermen in the Rangeley region. He
was not aware that under the new law
deer shooting and hunting was allowed
in the state during the month, else he
would have FASTENED home and. driven
his cow and calf to a place of safety.

When questioned by the police Off
Gals about the motive of his crime
Giacinto remained grimly silent But
to New York Sunday World reporter,

he gladly, almost eagerly, told this re-
