LIKE THE WOLF AND LAMB
inoffensive Creatures Most Unjustly
Charged With Sudden Attack
of Bloodthirstiness.

A man who was caught in the act
OF skinning a neighbours sheep, COW
cred his embarrassment by declaring
that no sheep could bite him and
live. The logic of this is equaled by
that or the Yankee soldier who once
had narrow escape from an enraged
gander. The men OF certain Maine
country in 1862, considered the order
mo foraging" an additional and I'M
called-for hardship. One afternoon
about dusk, a soldier was seen beat
ing rapid retreat from the rear OF a
farmhouse near by, closely pursued
whose feet seemed scarcely to touch
the ground, and from whose beak is
sued succession OF angry screams.
The fugitive was not reassured by the
cries Of the gander's owner: Hold
on, man, hold on! He won't hurt
you" Call Off your gander! Call
nim Off" shouted the fleeing soldier
Neither man nor gander stopped un-
til inside the camplines, when the sol
dier's friends relieved him OF his
fierce pursuer with the aid of the butt
OF q musket. Did that gander think
lie could chase me like that and
hve!" the soldier exclaimed, as he
surveyed the outstretched bird; but
he said nothing Of the baited hook
with codline attached, which might
have thrown light on the unfortunate
gander's strange actions.

There is now resting In the safe de-
post vault Of the Second National
bank of Frankford, a suburb OF Phila-
delphia, a metal vessel which the own
ers assert is the Holy Grail. or the cup
actually used by Christ at the Last
Supper. The cup is composed of gold,
silver, brass and iron. The surface Is
coated with palladium. and the ma
terial is as hard as steel. Four enam-
eled bands or rings encircle the cup
and the outside surface is filled with
symbolic figures.
The relic is in the care OF the execu-
tors of the estate OF the late Edward
Biddle Latch, Of the United States
navy. Mr.. Latch believed that the
Holy Grail was a cHp within a cup.
and was Of the opinion that the hid
den surface of the inner cup of the
vessel now In frankfort is covered
with symbols of rare historic value.
Speaking on this phase OF the subject,
he said that the separation OF the cups
would be a matter OF much difficulty
and that it was also inexpedient. Mr..
Latch obtained the cup for an insig-
nificant sum through beggar or tramp
who said he had picked 1t up by the
roadside.
