Goats MS Moving Machines.

A flock of Angora goats was put on
rocky hillside that it was desired to
have cleared and got, into grass 1t
was such tangle Of brush and briers
that it was with difficulty one could
make a way through it. The goats ac-
tually ate their way in until it was
penetrated with paths in all directions.
After the leaves within reach were
eaten they would stand on their hind
feet with their fore feet in the branch.
es and so eat the leaves higher up, OF,
II the bush was not too large, would
throw their weight against and bend it
to the ground, where others of the flock
would help strip it of its foliage. The
leaves would come out again only to be
eaten off, then sprouts would come
from the roots to share the same fate,
until at the end of the second summer
verything in the shape of a bush not
over six feet tall except the pines and
laurel was completely killed and white
clover was beginning to appear. These
goats with their long, curly, white
feeces attracted more attention prob
ably than anything else on the place;
but, as can be imagined, they had to be
well fenced in, for they would run over
stone wall like dogs.-Country Life

to be trusted there, according to the
Kennebec Journal. But at last her
mother permitted her to accompany

church was frequent caller at Grace's

this account she might take liberties.

BEMIDJI BALL PLAYERS

Summers, Farley LeGore,
Hazen and Gilmore, with five
members of the local "second

terday afternoon and gave the
ball team of that place an un-
merciful beating, the score being
II to 4 in favor of LeGore, ct al.
LeGore pitched, and he had the
Bagleyites tied hand and foot.
Summers caught.
For seven innings, Bagley
failed to register at the plate, but
LeGore tired and four runs we're
scored in the remaining two
innings. The Bemidji aggrega-
ton pounded Corners, the Bagley
twirler, all over the lot. Corners

Poetry at $l,S75 n Line.

The highest price ever paid for po-
etry was $1,S75 a line, $4,000 for an
eight line poem
1t was not good poem either. James
Smith, one Of the authors of "Rejected
Addresses" wrote it. Smith met one
night at dinner. in London Strachan,
the famous English printer. Strachan,
what with old age and govt, was most
infirm. Indeed, he could hardly walk.
But his mind was exceedingly power
full and brilliant, and he talked so
well that Smith on his return home
wrote the following doggerel about the
old man:
Your lower limbs seemed far from stout
When last saw you walk;
The cause presently found out
When you began to talk.
The power that props the body's strength
In due proportion spread
In you mounts upward, and the strength
All settles in the head.
Though this was undeniably rank
poetry and ranker fattery, it pleased
Printer Strachan so we'll that he added
to his will codicil giving Smith $15,-
600.

FOUND WATER A
LITTLE MOIST
Launch Party Goes Down the
River and Two Get Good
and Wet.

An exciting trip was made
down the Mississippi yesterday
by a party Of five men in the
Tuomy-Schneider launch. The
boat went as far as the fifth rapids
and going down stream every
thing went lovely; the scenery
was fine.
1t was coming back that the
fun commenced. The rapids are
full of rocks and the task of
navigating proved difficult one.
DR.. Tuomy finally was persuaded
to leap overheard, after removing
his shoes and stockings, and for
a mile and a half lifted and
guided the craft over and around
the stones.
The funniest moment OF the
fternoon was when Ben
Schneider fell in the "drink. y
The launch had run onto a rock
and slightly injured the pro.
peller, and the party had pulled
it onto shore and doctored it up.
When the men were getting
ready to board again preparatory
to showing off, there was some
hesitancy in walking a log, which
it was necessary to cross to get
aboard.
"What are you fellows afraid
| Of" exclaimed Mr.. Schneider.
"I'll show you how" He started,
and the next moment was
straddle the log and in the water
up to his hips. After that he
joined the doctor as a 'steering
com mittee," and got wet all over.
The party included, Emil ard
Ben Schneider, DR.. J. r. Tuomy,
J. J. Cameron, and Charles
Bacon of Minneapolis.
