The real thing in the Greenwich vii
lage studio now is the billy goat. Those
who profess to know go so far as to
state that the village girls, when they
go out to show their Smocks and
bobbed hair, won't carry Peke or a
Pom, but will lead goat Those who
have them say they are easier To care
for than a dog, the upkeep not being
so heavy, due TO n goats digestion, and
that they are kind and companiOuable.
There are other advantages, that OF
garbage disposal, even to cans, being
one. Then again, the owner Of goat,

from the Sixth or the Ninth avenue

misanthrOpical retirement into his use

ciety, he had more and more turned his
thoughts inward and inclosed himself

But now McKeefrey was strangely
interested. Something of old sympathy

thought of boyish antcipations and
afraid for the disappOintments that he
fOresaw He remembered that once
his own heart haC been warm and
hopeful, that he had made effort for

there sighed in his soul a faint hope
that happiness might visit him again
in his effort to bestOw it upon others.
1t seemed Il sweet and desirable thing

AGED CITIZEN
OF SHEFFIELD
FOUND DEAD
No Evidence of Foul
Play In Death of
l.. J. Thomas

L. J. Thomas, an aged citizen of
Sheffield, was found dead in his
room late Saturday evening.
He was about the street as usual
Saturday morning, but when he
was missed in the evening an in
vestigation Of his whereabouts
was suggested.
VIII Peck and H. P. Simpson
went to the house, broke open the
door and found him on the floor.
He had evidently been dead for
several hours.
He had not been sick, but had
been drinking heavily of late and
the evidence of liquor in the room
was sufficient cause for his death.
The States attorney was noti-
fled, but as there was no evidence
or intimation of foul play no Of
ficial action was thought to be
necessary. The body was taken
to Dodge and Watson's undertak-
ing rooms in Lyndonville and pre-
pared for burial. The funeral will
be held from the Methodist church
in Lyndonville at 2 O'Clock We'd
nesday afternoon.
Mr.. Thomas was 62 years of age
and had lived in Sheffield and
Wheelock the most of his life. He
was married in Manchester, N. II.
but had not lived with his wife for
the past 20 years. He leaves one
daughter, who, at last accounts,
was living in Waterbury, COnnec-
ticut, but all attempts to locate
her to notify her of her fathers
death had failed.
