HERD OF GOATS.
Imported Frow South Africa is Val
ued at $40,000.
One hutndred andot forty-nine of the
highest priced goats that were ever
brought to this countir arrived from
Soith Africa recently by the British
steamship Susqulelhanna. They are of
the Angora breed and a. e said to have
cost abouIt $40,000.
Ile goats were purchased in Cape
Colony by Mr. G. A. Early, an Ameri
canl, who had visited South Africa be
fore the outbreak of the Boer war. It
was dtie to the fact that he had al
ready contracted for then that lie
was allowed to take tlhem out of the
countiry, as directIN after the war the
British government placed anl embar
go oil the exportation of live sttck.
Mr. ,arly is making the experiment
of domesticating tliese valtiable ani
mals in thlis country. aild Ihas secur
ed a place in New Jersey. where the
goats will be taken after they have
undergone the ctistomary qiiarantine
in the state gluarantine station for an
imals at I.ynlIIrst. L. . The goats
will be removed today from the
st,.!aimshij). wliich is ancliored off
Stapleton.
This breed of goats was introduced
into Cape Colony about 40 years ago.
They throve there and largely propa
gated, the climate being specially well
suied to the perfect development of
the* wool. The wool, or mohair, as it
is technically terned, is long, line and
heavy, and covers the whole body and
part of the legs with close-matted
ringlets of particularly soft and silky
texture.
Thie iiporter believes that the ani
nals will, thrive as well here as inl
South Africa, and, as the breed is pro
lific, the kids grow fast and arriv
ing early at maturity, he is confident
Ef the 01tcomie of his experiment to
domesticate them here. The flesh of
tle Aigora is said to he better eating
than that of any other breed, and in
Turkey, its native country, is prefer
red to mutton. It is its fine giality of
Voo1, however. which renders it so
'valuable.

Tle. Japanlese canl Winl distinction
at the desk of the counting house as
readily as in sea light. One wlo ob
tained a situation with an English
firm on trial was asked a few days
after his appointment to write to a
customer who had owed sonic money
to the house for a long time and who
seemed to have no intention of pay
ing. "Write briefly and politely,"
said the cashier, "but let him under
stand distinctly that we expect him
to pay the money without further de
lay." The letter was written and on
the following day came the check for
the amount (iu. The surprised cash
ier asked the new clerk to show him
a copy of the letter which had been
so effectual. It ran thus:
"Dear Sir: If you do not scnd us
at olice the money you owe us we
we shall be obliged to take steps
which wvill cause the utmost aston
ishient. Respectfully yours."
The form seems to combine Orien
tal subtlety and western point.
When Slowcure Got Gay.
As Slowcure was walking with his
wife through West Twelfth street a
baseball bounded from the asphalt
pavement and narrowly missed a
plant Mrs. Slowcure was carrying
home, says the New York Press.
"The little imps," she exclaimed an
grily. "They deserve a good whip
ping."
"Nonsense," retorted Slowcure. "I
used to (10 the same thing myself.
Boys must play ball somewhere."
"Throw it tip mister," shouted a
lad half a block away.
Slowcure picked up the ball and
walked to the middle of the street
with it. He swung his arms and
facetiously went through the motions
of a league pitcher.
"Come away from there," pleaded
Mrs. Slowcure. "Roll that ball back
without making an idiot of yourself."
"Let her come, mister." yelled the
boy.
One iore sweep of the arm and
Slowcure let go the ball. There was
a crash of glass. The ball disappear
ed inside the front window of a
boarding house and the boys disap
peared around the corner.
"That will cost you $31," shouted
an irate woman, coming to the front
door. "I was watching you from the
window. As if it isn't bad enough
to have the boys playing in the
streets, without a great, big lummux
like you encouraging then. Your
wife ought to keep you at home."
Tommy. aged five, was a very
sympathetic little fellow. One (lay
upon his return home from a visit
to an animal show he found his
mother suffering from a severe case
oj throat trouble.
"I'm awfully sorry for you, mam
ma." he said, "but I'm glad you ain't
a giraffe."--Chicago News.
