The Goose Il Intelligent.

You must no longer use the express

uralists OF half dozen countries have
been studying the goose OF late years.
and they have come to the conclusion
that she is the wisest fowl among
them all. She never quarrels with
out cause. she sees danger before any
other fowl. she has more courage than
the rooster. she is far Drawer than the
gobbler. and II given fair show she
can beat OF the fox.
A flock OF geese squatted around the
barnyard nj night IN a much greater
protection than the watchdog. They
are light sleepers and will give the
alarm the instant they see stranger
moving about. We should say las
wise as a goose" and give her all due
credit.

Barron, Wis, Farmer Commits AtroA
cious Crime.

Barron-When the older children
of Christ Hanson entered their farm
home near Cameron, on returning
from picking berries in the field, they
stumbled in the dark over the dead
body of their mother. On lighting
lamp it was found that the woman's
throat had been cut from ear to ear.
In horror the children ran from the
house and walked to Cameron, two
miles distant, for help. The village
marshal and doctor returned to the
farm house with them.
Besides the body of Mrs. Hanson,
the corpse of a 6-year-old daughter
was found in manger in the barn,
with the head nearly severed In the
hayloft Hanson's remains were found,
also with the throat cut.
No motive for the crimes Is known,
but Hanson has been regarded as
mentally unbalanced for some time,
If not actually insane. Recently he
sold a fine large barn near Barron
for less than half it's value and has
otherwise acted strangely. He was in
good financial circumstances and own
ed two farms in Barron county and
one in the state of Iowa.
