the South Broad Street Merchants
Improvement Association against spit
ting on the sidewalks will be continued

placards on the electric light poles
warning passersby against breaking the

OUR CORNER

are a saucy set of Fellows,
those young imps that throng
the western plains and appeal
TO the ,good-hearted Manitoba farmer
for their winter food. They are not
beggars, either; the gopher has far too
much independence and character FOR
that.
They lust walk into a field well
stocked with succulent grain, and they
thrive, as happy a lot of bright-eyed
young rogues as you would wish to see.
They have not much dread of the ami
mails mortal enemy-man-as they
show by the fearlessness with which
they build. or rather, dig, their homes
near by the prairie roads, and sport
about In their own back yards to their
hearts content.
We saw thousands of them when we
tarcve In q blackboard sixty miles across
prairies in tho Canadian territories.
Ut was a warm, late August afternoon,
and the little chaps were gamboling
about In the sunshine, frolicking like
dtminutive spring lambs, and far more
agile, graceful and interesting. Two Of
them got under the horses hoofs, but
the flnc- old prairie cobs were too
good natured to step on the little fell
lows. and the gophers themselves de-
spised the big brown animals with the
contempt born of an absolute assur-
Rnce of safety.
Then with an adroit dodge they would
whisk away, scamper off to their sur
rows, sit up on their hind quarters,
with their fore legs lifted and paws
hanging comically downward, and with
a. pretty scampish expression of jnno-
cerice these little monkeys, no larger
II a a kitten. n wrapped in their
fur coats of gray. would cock their
bright little black beads of eyes, and
-well-laugh. When 10 .la,s 1885,.

lains were making grimaces at our
