 Our readers will remember the goat captured up the river recently that ate such a lot of junk while in the warehouse at this place. A man up in Douglas also captured a goat and here is the story as told goat is not in it with one that Mark Tatom captured on his recent hunting trip. The first night he ate an umbrella, an Alaska Dis patch, two rolls of tar paper and one of Marks old red flannel shirts. Not desiring to kill him, Mark con- cluded to tie him out on the rail road track and let the cars run over him as if by accident. When the train came whistling down grade from Treadwell the goat jumped from one track to the other, but seeing he could not break the rope and realizing his great danger, he commenced to "heave up." First came the green umbrella and then with a mighty heave up came the red shirt, which Billy waved fran tically in his mouth and flagged the train, causing it to stop only few yards away.
