STAG IN HARD LUCK.
With Ladder Impaled on It's Horns
Deer Narrowly Escaped Cap
ture and Death.

Some huntsmen near Innsbruck
came upon a stag with a ladder on
its antlers. In spite of this handi-
cap, it made off at great speed on
seeing the men, leaping hedges and
dashing through the underground as
if quite unimpeded. It's mad career
was stopped, however, when the ends
of the ladder caught between two
trees. Its struggles were so frantic
at the approach Of the huntsmen's dog
that it broke off part of it's antlers,
and, hui freed, made good it's escape,
The ladder proved to belong to a
farmer, who had left it standing
against one of his haystacks. While
stealing the hay the stag had evi.
IDENTIFY upset the ladder, which had
thus become fixed on its horns.
Which goes to prove that honesty Is
the best policy-even for stays.
