O'Grady is 40 years of age, and he
saws he acquired the habit of eating
hardware when about % years OF age.
The practice first began as joke, Wnen
O'Grady swallowed some nail heads
Suffering no i'll effects, he next trled
2. few tacks, and then it daWned upon
him that he could make an easy living
doing a side show or vaudeville turn
During the time that he has been In
the business the "Ostrich" says he has
swallowed hundreds of needles and the
only inconvenience he has suffered has
been through the working out of the
needles through his flesh. Only last
Monday O'Grady summoned DIR. Miller,
stating that he could feel a needle
making it's way out of his chest. An
examination by the physician disclosed
the point of a needle, which he pulled
out with a pair of nippers.
O'Grady's stomach has been badly
infamed for several days. and he says
it feels as though it weighed twenty
pounds. O'Grady was very reluctant to
permit the operation, but told the doc
tor to go ahead when the physician in
formed him that it was a case of life
or death. O'Grady declares that if he
survives the operation he is through
with the Ostrich" business.
Dr. Miller is confident of a successful
outcome of the operation.

THE MAJESTIC,

Without doubt Petrie and Budd at
the Majestic this week are simply a
scream in every sense of the word.
1t is a roar and a good hearty laugh
from start to finish, and some of their
foolishness comes so suddenly that it
is too late to really see.
The work of modelling in clay is odd
quick and good. Chief Metz was made
to look just like himself, and during
the balance of the week ex- Chief Kauf-
man, w. H. Kirkman, George Retzer,
Sr., will have q turn
The act of Bowerman and ST Claire
is neat and they receive deserved APP
plause as does Master Ferney in his
singing. The special ladies' free mat
inee is on for today

Success of Introduction of Reindeer in
Alaska Has Opened the Field
Of Utility for Their
Wild Cousins.

OTTAWA. Canada, April 28.-"The
duction of reindeer in Alaska has
aroused attention in Canada, and the
suggestion has been made that the
reindeer will settle one of the prob
lens of developing the resources of
the Canadian northland," said Albert
F. Steele, of Ottawa. Canada. "One
has to hoof it or use dogs up in the
Arctic stretches now and it is con-
ceded that civilization will move
slowly of no better means of tram
portation is found.
1.-The United States imported rein
deer into Alaska and taught them that
they could live just as happily and
usefully in Alaska as in their home
land Some $4,000 are now in Alaska
! and they are more than earning their
keep. Canada need not go to the
trouble of importing reindeer. She
has herds of reindeer all ready up in
the northern regions. All that is
needed is to train them, for they are
, very wild.
"These Canadian reindeer are really
CARIBOU, Out Sdy llIcS VIII
do as we'll The caribou are plentiful
throughout the Canadian north. Of
course, our people will have to catch
these animals and train them, but to
a people who are building an empire
that is a trifling matter.
1.-THE most active advocate of using
| reindeer or caribou in the develop
ment of northern Canada is Fred S.
Lawrence, who lives at Fort Vermil-
ion, on the lower Peace river He
has made his home in the north for
twenty -five years. He suggests that
start might be made toward domes-
| ticating Canadian reindeer by induce
ing Laplanders to emigrate to Canada.
The Laplanders, by reason of their
pastures becoming crowded. owing to
the great number of their reindeer,
are looking for some part of the world
to which they can transport their
| herds and families and establish
! themselves anew. The reindeer is
feeter and can be more easily kept
/ than the horse. A prOSpectOr could
maintain himself for year with ten
| head Of reindeer. If his provisions
! gave out he could eat the reindeer"

MAN HAS APPETITE
LIKE AN OSTRICH
Hardware Eater Must Change His Diet,
Much Against His Will.

BUTTE, April est will be neces-
sary to open the stomach of Terence
O'Grady, of Billings, in an effort to
save his life, according to Dr. Charles
Miller, physician for Yellowstone coun-
ty, who next week will operate upon
O'Grady for peritonitis.
O'Grady is known as the Human
Ostrich" and his ailment is directly
due to his practice of swallowing
needles, tacks, staples, nails and bits of
various kinds of hardware. O'Grady
declares his abnormal practice has
been induced by an Unsuitable craving
which nothing seemed to appease ex-
cept something that made his stomach
feel heavy
