Alas! Poor Cussie!
We Knew Her Well
Gussie Guernsey is dead.

GuSSie Guernsey is dead.
1T may be so, we do not know, ii
sounds SO awfully queer,
But Gussies death certificate will
say her paralysis was due to hard
ening of the tendons."
Gussie was one Of the prize bovines
at the federal dairy farm near Man.
dan. Three weeks ago Gussie was
found paralyzed in her boudoir
Veterinarians were called They held
a consultation. Yes! Gussie's condi-
ton was bad. They tried all rcme-
dies. To no avail.
Then they called for specialists. A
Bismarck chiropractor manipulated
her vctebrac. But Gussie failed to
respond to treatment. The source of
her affliction was puzzling.
Finally theoretical explanation of
her illness was made. The dairymen
discovered that Gussie was wont to
cavort along the farms gay white
way. She was addicted to alcoholic
beer mash. Aha! Demon Rum had
fastened his deathlike tentacles upon
her.
Gussie's speakeasy was an obscure
corner Of the pasture. There the
llomebrewers of the vicinity dumped
their mash. Gussic gorged herself on
the powerful malt dregs. Despite her
night life. she had never been known
to come home tipsy.
Arrested by paralysis, Gussie was
bound over to a court Of her peers.
Gussie steadfastly declined to COM
nit herself She couldn't move. So
they sentenced her to face the firing
squad.
A revolver report In the drizzling
rain yesterday sounded Taps for
Gussies Jekyl-Hyde career.

A combined attack of lone but CT

eventually boarded and disarmed.
The attack occurred off the borders

refuge in an area occupied by seven
foreign warships, among them the U

The foreign authorities did not

Withdraw so that bombardment Of
the ships could continue. but shortly
asked the Chinese commanders ia
leave the vicinity, since shell fire from
