SADIE'S SHEEP AGAIN
Suggestion That Flanagan's Goat
Methods be Used.

Pierce, Neb., Jan 2S.-Special to
The News: The controversy arising
over Sadie's sheep might be settled
and the sheep industry stamped out
within the corporate limits of Norfolk
by the city assessor taking notes from
the Flanagan goat episode of recent
years. 1t will be remembered that one
Flanagan lived on a street in a city
well patronized by pedestrians. Hav-
ing a couple small children he pur-
chased a goat for their amusement but
leaving the goat without restrain it
devoted most of it's time to practicing
his paSStime on passersby in the
street. People soon were obliged to
go two extra blocks to avoid a COLI
sion with his goatship's head. 1t so
happened that one Finnigan (the city
assessor) lived farther out on the
same street. When Flanagan APP
peared at the treasurers office to pay
his tax he was confronted with fifty
dollar tax to pay on a goat. Raising
a great "holler" he was referred to the
city assessor. Flanagan approached
his Irish friend most audaciously and
demanded an explanation as to why he
was required to pay fifty dollar tax
on goat that only cost two dollars.
Finnigan, equal to the occasion, pulled
the law on Mr.. Flanagan and read
property Astounding and abutting on
Genoa street shall be assessed at TWEEN
ty-fve dollars per front foot" and clos
ing his book with a look of >disdain

home and count yez goats front feet"

And Another Ode,

And yet another ode to Sadie and
her sheep has been sent in, without
the writer's name:
Miss Sadie had two little lambs,
With which she used to walk,
Until the cops of Norfolk
Made such an awful talk.
They said that she should walk alone
And leave the lambs at play
That is, they" didn't say so,
| guess twas only Hay.
But Sadie says, at makes no diff,
Who made the horrid rule,
She'll always take the lambs with her
Except to Sunday school,"
This, Sadie says, she don't attend,
And other lands she'll seek,
And if they kick on Norfolk Ave.
She'll take them cross the creek.

TO FoREsTALL NORTHWESTERN
Burlington Begins Building Through
Big Horn Canon.

Thermopolis, Wyo., Jan. ga par
ty of Burlington railroad contractors
and constructors have begun building
line of railroad through the famous
Big Horn canon in order to forestall
the Northwestern line, which was to
be built through the same canon next
spring. For twelve miles there is room
for only one road through the cleft,
and it has been a race between the
two roads as to which could first reach
the canon and secure the right of way.
The Big Horn canon is the key to
traffic in all northern and western wy
oming and the only route through the
Owl Creek mountains. The North
western must seek an outlet to the
west far to the south of it's planned
line.

HOGS REACH HIGH PRICE
LOCAL MARKET BEATS RECORD
FOR FOUR YEARS.
ALSO SOUTH OMAHA MARKET
Shortage in Hogs, Due to High Price
Of Corn and Epidemic Of Cholera,
Has Sent Price Skyward With Joy.
Gus Result for Farmers.
TTrom TUESDAYS Datlyl

Not in four years has the price for
hogs been so high in Norfolk or Ne
braska as it is right now. The local
market broke fouryear record Tues
day morning when $6.25 was offered
per 100 pounds of live pork, and the
South omaha market broke four
year record when it topped the market
at $G.S5.
The high price of pork has brought
joy to farmers who are fortunate
enough to own the live stock just now.
The high record is said to be due to
a shortage in hogs, and the shortage
in hogs was due to the high price of
corn last year and to cholera during
the past year or so which killed many
animals.

French Presidents Double.

NJ. Fallieres was until recently be-
lieved to be the only president of the
French republic who had no double,
but his counterpart has been found.
The man who most resembles him
physically is a respectable merchant
of the Rue Saint Honore, who plays
his part with decorum and dignity. He
wears exactly the same kind OF bluo
butterfly necktie with white dots as
the president, the same kind of hat
and exactly so oddly cut beard And
on his promenades he is always ac-
companied by friend who could cas-
lily be taken for the presidents private
secretary. Dignified and with meas
ured steps the enviable double walks
through the Faubourg Saint Honore
and feels overjoyed at being saluted
on all sides.

OLD CAPT. cAcK's QUESTION.
Somewhat Pointed, But II Denoted
Quick Intelligence.

Pierce Jay, the commissioner OF
banks of Massachusetts,, at the Ameri-
can Bankers associations convention
In ST. Louis, advocated a better ac-
counting system.
"But above ALL" said Mr.. Jay, in
a discussion of his idea, I'VE want
intelligence, IL embezzlement is to be
thoroughly put down. Systems are
good, but intelligence is better, and
in cashiers and tellers and book
keepers and note clerks we want the
same keen, quick intelligence that
characterized old Capt. Hiram Cack,
of Gloucester.
"Cack lay very i'll. One day he got
down-hearted, feeling that his case
was hopeless.
"T fear, DOCTOR he said, there isn't
much hope for me-
ooh, yes, there is,' the doctor an
swered. Three years ago / was in
your condition precisely, and look at
me now

Whine from Henry James.

Henry James, pursuing his theme,
"The Speech of American Women"
speaks of a group of Boston young
women, "all articulating as from sore
mouths, all mumbling and whining
and vocally limping and shufTling as 1t
were together" He compares, also to
it's great disadvantage, a school where
parents pay so much not to have their
boys taught to speak as gentlemen,
with one beyond the sea, in which
the proviso that the schoolmaster
shall speak as a gentleman is so abso-
lutely vital"
