A WONDERFUL GANDER.
tects His Property Better
Than Any Dog.

James Rice, of Chicopee, Mass, is
the owner Of a gander that guards his
house and yard on Exchange street in
his absence better than most dogs
could. How effectually Billy does his
duty is attested by the fact that
short time ago he drove Patrick Ma
lone, a well-knOwn local character,
out of the yard, biting him so Sc
verely that he applied to the police for
a warrant for the arrest of Billy or
Mr.. Rice, but the police refused to have
anything to do with the matter.
Rice is more than six feet tall and
weighs 200 pounds, but Billy is USUALLY
on hand to protect him if necessary,
following him about the city streets
and even going along in the wagon,
when his master visits his farm near
Fairview cemetery, mile from home.
Billy will never allow any one to even
take hold of his masters coat or make
any motion he considers threatening.
Billy sleeps on the back steps of the
house in summer and not only gives
warning when tramps come into the
yard, but attacks all tlespassers on
his masters estate. He kncws the let
ter carrier, the milkman and the ice
man, and even let's the garbage man
come into the yard. He is easily the
boss of the yard.
Rice attributes Billy's superior in
telligence to the long talks they have
had together. Billy squawks an an
swer to all questions Rice asks him
concerning the property. A year ago,
when Rice was sick for several weeks,
he used to talk to the bird by the hour,
and since then Rice has said that he
will never kill Billy, but will let him
die a natural death.
Billy raps on the door in the morn
ing until his master comes downstairs,
80 Rice can dispense with the serV-
ice of an alarm clock.
