"BILLY RAILROAD" THE GOAT.
He Is Owned by a Railway and Is
Worth Big Money.

He Is Owned by Railway and Is
Worth Big Money.
The International and Great Northern
Railroad of Texas has a trained goat
in its employ. The goat receives no
salary for his services, but he receives
the best of treatment, and seems to-
fully appreciate the important position
which he holds with the railroad cor
poration. This goat is used to load
sheep on cars and is well known to all
of the shippers along that line of road.
He was raised in Mexico, near the town
of LampaZos, on the line of the Mexican
National Railroad. To all Appearances
he was only an ordinary goat, and great
was the surprise of his owner about al
year ago when the goat, of his own
free will, paid a visit to the stock pensl
at LampaZOs, where shipment of
goats was being loaded, and led big!
flock of stampeded animals back intol
the pens and into the cars.
The value Of this particular goat was
quickly recognized, and for several
months he had regular employment asI
leader in rounding up and loading ship
ments of goats at Lampazos and other
places along the line of the Mexican
National. He had the Mexican name
Of "Guilermo Ferrocarril," which In
English means BILLY Railroad" A few
months ago large shipment of sheep
was to be made from Laredo, Texas,
on the line of the International and
Great Northern road. "Billy Railroad"
was sent for, and he handled the big
flock Of sheep better than a force of
twenty men could have done.
Billy has been employed at al
most every shipping place on the line
Of the International and Great North
ern road, and his value is appreciated
to such an extent that large price
was offered for him by the Southern
Pacific company a few weeks ago. He
is now owned jointly by the Mexican
National and the International and
| Great Northern roads,

Rescuing a Kitten.

A well-known Boston architect has a
tender spot in his heart, and once spent
several hours devising way to rescue
a kitten which had fallen into one of
the ventilating fiues in the walls of an
apartment in the postoffice building.
The kitten had been imprisoned several
days without food or water. The flue
was forty feet in depth. A Boston
newspaper tells the story.
Notice of the affair was brought to
the architect late of Saturday after
noon. The cries Of the kitten could be
family heard, and the would-be rescuer
at first thought he would cut through
the marble facing Of the apartment in
which the fiue was located. Fortu-
nately some one suggested that perhaps
the prisoner would seize the end of a
line if it were weighted with something
bulky and readily laid hold upon.
The experiment was tried, and,
strange to say, the nearly starved crea-
ture took fast hold with its claws. The
rope was very carefully and slowly
drawn up, and the kitten with it. She
was very weak, but warm milk, admin
istered at intervals, soon restored her.

said a local real estate dealer. Eight
wears ago a New Orleans man lost a

Southern city with just 50 in his pock-
ct. He was well dressed and had a
plausible tongue, and hearing that the

ally secured the job. They gave him
two days to file bond, and he went
straight to a banker, showed him where
there was money in the scheme, and in
thirty minutes persuaded him to be-
come his surety.
Now. mark you, he knew no more
about erecting public building than

Chicago Student Who Has Mastered
the Mystery of the a."
One of the students of the University
of Chicago went to a restaurant on
Jackson street few days ago with
two friends who had fought with the
First Regiment at Santiago. Natural
ly they talked of the war, and although
the student showed considerable
knowledge of the campaign, his pro-
punciation of Spanish proper names
was bad. Invariably he gave the Span
ish 81" its English sound.
His companions, who were better
posted on the Castilian tongue, stood
it as long as they could. and finally
one of them said: See here, if you
want to talk war with US you must
pronounce those Spanish words as they
should be. Say San Huan' and 'Moa-
teho,' and remember that 'Hunta' Is
| proper. Don't give the words the II
sound. There is no j. It's pronounced
'H'-always."
''Oh, is it?'' returned the student with
a sheer of sarcasm, for he was get
ting angry. Then 1 suppose your name
is 'Hohn,' not john rs it used to be
before you went to Cuba; and perhaps
you want me to tell you that this res
taurant is on jackson street"

angered the student that he lcaped to

She accepted his attentions, and he

Invitation. Henry was introduced to

OLD FAMILIES OF THE WORLD.
The Mikado's Relatives Have Reigned

The Mikado's Relatives Have Reigned
for Over $500 Years.
About a dozen of the 400 barons in
to 400, the earliest being 1864. The
oldest family in the British isles is the
Mar family Of Scotland, 1893. The
Campbells Of Argyll, to whom belongs
the present Duke of Argyll, began In
1870. Talleyrand dates from 1899, Bis
marck from 1720, the Grosvenor fam
lily, the Dukes of Westminster, 1906;
the Austrian house of Hapsburg goes
back to 952, and the house of Bourbon
to 1854. The descendants of Moham-
med, born $40, are all registered care
fully and authoritatively in a book
kept in Mecca by the chief Of the fam
lily. Little or no doubt exists of the
absolute authenticity Of the long lines
Of Mohammed's descendants. In China
there are many old families, also among
the Jews. When it comes to pedigrees
there is one gentleman to whom the
world must take off its hat as great
and only none-such. This is the Mi
kadO of Japan. His place has been
filed by members of his family for
more than $500 years. The present

The causes of summer catarrh are
first, chronic catrarrh second, derange-
ment of the stomach and liver; third,
impure blood.
Such being the case anyone who
knows anything whatever about the
operations of Peruna can understand
why this remedy is permanent cure
for summer catarrh. 1t eradicates
chronic catarrh from the system, in
invgorates the stomach and liver,
cleanses the blood of all impurities
and therefore permanently cures by
removing the ca. host of mala-
dies peculiar to hot weather. The cause
being removed the symptoms disappear
of themselves.
