The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1912-01-03

James Booze, of near Bristol,
Bucks county. has a calf with five
legs and six feet. The fifth leg is
between the other two hind legs and
is a complete leg having a gambrel
joint the same as the other legs.
The two feet are on the fifth leg and
contrary to nature they are pointed
backward instead of forward like
other feet. Another great oddity of
the animal is that it has three sets
of generative organs. 1t is now over
two months old and seems to be
thriving.

Washington u c.. Jan. 1.-THE
Lodge amendment to the resolution
providing for ratification OF the arbi-
tration treaties between Great Brit.
ain and France and America, today
stirred up unexpected opposition on
the part of Democratic senator's
The resolution. which was favored
by three-iourths of the Republican
senator's, WAS Introduced by Senator
Lodge at an executive session OF the
Senate today. Seven-eighths of the
Democratic senator's who indicated
their willingness to support the rat
ification before the introduction OF
the Lodge amendment which would
reserve from arbitration all questions
strictly involving American subjects,
today took the position that the
amendment conflicted with the treat
les themselves, and consequently will
oppose It as a practical notification
Of vital parts OF the treaties.
The Democrats argument is that
the effect of acceptance of the amend
ment TO Article Three would be 10
restore all senate prcrogatives and
confirmation.
Republican senators are not strong
enough numerically 10 put through
the treaties without considerable
Democratic assistance. and concern is
