Here's what the Daily News says: "He is a nice old gentleman with a long silky goatee, a pair of darkbrown, somewhat cracked horns, a docile disposition, a sympathetic pair of brown eyes, and as goats go, not an altogether bad atmosphere, although he could never pass for a bouquet of lilies of the valley. "The goat was traded to the ^Daily News for a subscription?we stuck to our word that we would trade for any kind of farm produce?and a goat cttn classify as a farm product. "While he would be an excellent creative to have around the office to eat the exchanges, verses by wouldbe poets, letters from hundreds seeking publicity for nothing, and other purposes it is hardly likely that we can support him in the style to which he has been accustomed. "At present he is tethered in the back yard of the publisher, waiting for a new home. ' Any suggestion as to what to do with a goat of this description will be more than welcome." Death of II. E.
