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. They lad No Smaller. i"Iffladelpliia Press. "When I was travelling tirough 'Kentucky a short time ago," said the man about town, "a very aniusitng incident occurred one night at the per f..rmaice of a well-known imiagi cian, ill one Elf the small mountain tovns where T happened to be. "Tehe magician had proceeded wvith many mystifying tricks when lie an nloInlced that he would for the u- t one require a pin flask of whiskey. "Not a man in the audience moved. 'binking that they ha(d inisuinder stood Iiini, the imagician asked in a louder tole: "Will some gentleman kindly loan me a pint flask of whiskey?"

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. Week End Rates viai Southern.
