I
A Young Man's Ruse to Find Out if His
Cirl Really Cared for Him.
The young man in love is an inter- i
esting creature. Given a sympathetic
listener, he will tell many things in a
voice that is awed, because what he
is telling seems so holy to him. Such
a young man said: "I couldn't feel sure
my girl really cared for me, so I wrote i
myself this telegram: 'Will you go
as accountant for a tea firm in China
at salary of $60 per week? Start
Thursday. Answer at once.' I signed
the name of a fictitious firm and showed
the girl the telegram as soon as I
got to her house that night. She read
it, and then she looked at me gravely.
'What do you think about it?' she
asked. 'I don't know what to think,'
said I. She mused a little while. 'Do
you want to go?' she asked me. 'Ii it
wasn't for you, I'd want to go,' I answered.
Then she said, in a faint
voice: 'Do whatever you think best.'
'I'd go, if it wasn't for you,' I replied.
She sat very still, looking at the fire, j
Then all of a sudden she began to cry.
'Oh. don't go! don't go!' she wailed. j
'Don't go and leave me all alone.
What would I do?what would I do?
without you?' So I told her I wouldn't
go. It is a grand thing to have a girl
care for you so much as that. I know
that this girl loves me truly." "If I
had been the girl," said the young
man's listener, "I should havo said:
'Accept the offer, and we'll be married i
at once and start for China together,' " j
The young man grinned. "Gosh! I
hadn't thought of that," he admitted.
"Wouldn't I have been in a fix, '
though, if she had said that?"
Poles Frozen in Position.
' The telegraph line now in course of
construction from a point on Norton t
sound, Alaska, through the gold mine
camps on the Upper Yukon river to
connect with the Canadian landline
system in Alberta province presents i
some curious difficulties to engineers. :
There being no wood in the country, !
steel poles are employed similar to .
those used for the trolley wires in
Brooklyn and winter is selected as the
season for work, because these poles
can be most easily sledded over the
ground and ice of the frozen rivers .
r and lakes at that time. Even in sum- !
mer the ground for a depth of twelve
inches down is frozen solid, and in
setting a pole the operation consists
simply in blasting a hole in the frozen
soil, sticking in a pole and pouring
in water. This freezes, and, unless
the climate of Alaska changes, will remain
frozen indefinitely, holding the
pole firmly and solidly. It is expected
that this line will be in operation i
through to Cape Nome early next
summer.?New York Sun.

ENGLAND'S PEASANTRY.
Their Present Condition Contrasted With
That of a Century Aeo.
The agricultural laborers of to-day
are certainly better clad, more luxuriously
fed, have far more leisure, are
better educated, and are rapidly becoming
better housed than their forefathers
a century ago. And if these
are the main constituents of happiness,
then they are happier.
On the other hand, their grandfathers
and great-grandfathers were much
more gay and light hearted than the
modern; they enjoyed their lives much
more than their descendants do; they
had incomparably more laughter, more
amusement, mere real delight in the
labor of their hands; there was more
love among them and less hate. The
agricultural laborer had a bad drunken
time between twenty or thirty
years ago, and he has been growing
out of that. A village sot is now a
very rare bird, as rare as he was a
hundred years ago. Then the laborer
could not afford a drunken debauchhe
had not the wherewithal. His master.
the farmer, did drink, and some
times deeply in the days when he was
prospering. And for a few years after
the rise of the laborer's wages, some
twenty-five years ago, the laborer was
the publican's friend. But hard drinking
has been steadily declining, and
the habitual drunkard is looked upon
as a coarse brute to be avoided. As
to other vices, things are pretty much
as they were; I am afraid rather
worse than better.
Perhaps the saddest characteristic
of the men of the present, as compared
with the men of the past, is that the
men of the past were certainly more
self-dependent?I do not meau independent,
in the sense in which tnat
word is used now?more resourceful;
more kindly, courteous, and contented
with their lot than their descendants
I think I know something about the
English peasantry of a century or two
gone by. I think I know just a little
about the agricultural laborer nowadays.
I bear him a genuine love, and
feel with him a cordial sympathy, an.!
there is no knowing any men or any
class of men whom we do not love ami
sympathize with. But as to the agricultural
laborer of the future, 1 am
sometimes inclined to doubt seriously
whether before another century has
ended there will be any such thing as
an agricultural laborer to know.?

! FLEECE OF THE ANGORA.
I
I
MILLION POUNDS ANNUALLY PRODUCED
IN THE UNITED STATES.
A Statement Issued by the Department of
Agriculture Ke.pcctln; Grade.4 ant! Valued?Gnat
Meat Is Much lletter Food
Than Mutton ? Tastes Tike Venison.
The department of agriculture annually
receives thousands of letters of j
inquiry concerning Angora goats, and j
in view of the interest taken in the
subject Mr. D. E. Salmon, chief of
the bureau of animal industry, recent
ly made some investigations on the
Lubject. It is estimated, he says, that
there are about 400,000 Angora goats
in the United States, and that their
annual production of fleece is over a
million pounds.
The history of the Angora goat in
the United States. Mr. Salmon says,
has been marred by the carelessness
or indifference of occasional writers
for the press, who have often been inaccurate
as to dates or facts, and also
by others who^e interests have doubtless
lc-d them into exaggerations. The
real facts of its history, however, are
so few and so simple as to prompt
that venerable breeder. William M.
Landrum, to say that they would make
but a very small book. During the administration
of President Polk the Sultan
of Turkey requested of him that
he recommend some one who would
experiment in the culture of cotton in
Turkey. Accordingly, Dr. James B.
Davis of Columbia. S. C.. was rec
ommended, and he received the appointment.
The work done by Dr.
Davis appeared to be highly gratifying
to the Sultan, and so. upon his return,
in 1849, the Sultan, desiring to
reciprocate the courtesy of the President,
presented him with nine of the
choicest goats in his dominion. Col.
Richard-Peters, writing in 1876, says
of these animals: "These doubtless
were selected from the herds of Angora,
a district of country lying among
the Taurus mountains, which traverse
Asiatic Turkey, and which derives
its name from its principal city,
situated about 200 miles east of Constantinople."
It does not seem, therefore,
that Dr. Davis encountered any
great difficulty in securing this first importation
of Angora goats into this
country.
"Of the nine Angoras imported by
Dr. Davis, seven were does and two
were bucks. Besides these, according
to Col. Peters, there came in the same
lot one pure-bred Thibet doe. several
head of crosses between the Angora
and Thibet goats, and quite a number
of grade does bred from the common
short-haired ewes of the country and
his Angora bucks.
"The soft undercoat of the Cashmere
is known as 'pashum,' and is the
product from which the famous Cashmere
shawl was made. Mr. Wm. M.
Landrum, who was probably the first
in this country to discover that our
so-called Cashmere goat was the Angora
instead, through investigation
made about 1861, also states that there
is a difference between the Cashmere
shawl and tho Paisley shawl. These
are often referred to as being the
same shawl. While the filling of both
shawls was of pashum, the chain of the
latter was made from the kid fleece
of the Angora. Pashum is combed
i out in the soring, and is worth, when
' cleaned, in the country where it is
produced, from $1.50 to $2 per pound.
"A large class of people in some
way have become possessed of the
opinion that the goat is practically a
useless animal. They do not reach
conclusions upon investigations, however,
and do not discriminate between
the different breeds. To them a goat
is a 'goat,' and there the argument
ends. Investigations prove that the
Angora goats are not only classed
among the most useful of the domestic
animals, and have been so classed for
thousands of years, but their usefulness
is manifested in a variety of
ways. The fleece, called 'mohair.' furnishes
some of the finest of fabrics
among ladies' goods and is used in
various other manufactures; their
habit of browsing enables the farmer
in a wooded locality to use them to
help in subjugating the forest; their
flesh is exceedingly delicate and nutritious;
the milk, though not so abundant
as with the milch breed of goats,
is richer than cow's milk; their tanned
skins, though inferior in quality to the
skins of the common goat, are used
for leather; their pelts make the neatest
of rugs and robes; they are excellent
pets for children; a few of them in
a flock of sheep are a protection from
wolves and dogs; their manure is noticeably
helpful to the grass which
follows them after they have cleaned
away the underbrush. These are all
vital subjects of varying degrees of importance,
and will be considered here
under appropriate heads.
1 1 1 U1 ~
"in tnose locanues wuere vtuuauie
land is completely subdued by brush
the goats are considered of more value
for the purpose of clearing it than for
their mohair or meat. They thus become
one of the farmer's important
tools. Their value in this respect must
be measured by the value of the land
which they will render cultivable. It
is said that in Oregon, where Chinamen
had been paid as high as *20 an
acre for clearing off brush goats had
done the work even better. Sprouts
will spring up behind men's work, but
goats will keep them down until they
cease to appear. True, the goats require
more time than meD. but their
work is better.
"One of the first questions to be
considered by a man who is about to
embark in stock raising of any kind
is the markets for his surplus. This
question is first because it is the principal
one and all important. The one
who proposes to begin with a flock of
thoroughbred or high-grade Angoras,
such as will yield merchantable mohair,
will not need to consider markets,
as the increase will be employed
to produce mohair; but a large number
of flocks will be built up in the
future, as they have been in the past,
by the use of dees of the common^
breed. It will be ascertained that the
fleece of low grades is barely worth
the cost of clipping it; that the skin
is not so valuable for leather as that
of the common goat; and that, as a
rug or robe, the pelts are not so valuable
as those of the higher grades.
Tharnfnro if thorp ic tn ho anv nrrtfif
1UV1 ViViVf " v"vi v vv vv/ 1" v"v
from this part of a flock, there must
be a market for the meat.
"The reason goats are not seen
oftener in the market reports of receipts
and shipments is that they pass
as sheep. It is stated, however, that
increasing numbers are seen in the
larger markets. In the Union stock
yards of Chicago as many as 8000 were
received in week last year. While
the goats pass as sheep, they are also
sold to consumers as sheep. The difference
is very slight in some places.
In Kansas City, for instance, the sheep
bring about one-half a cent per pound
more than goats. The packers buy
them as goats and sell them as sheep
i
in the form of dressed meat or j
canned."
In one week recently 8000 goats
were received at the Union stock
yards in Chicago. They were slaughtered
and sold, and yet no butcher
bought anything but "sheep" and no j
housewife served anything at dinner
I but lamb or mutton.
The agricultural department wrote
to many goat raisers and asked them
if they had any difficulty at all in
selling goats for food. No joke for
j which Billy was ever the butt had
more genuine humor than had this extract
from a letter written in answer
to the Question by Thomas H. Mastin j
of Kansas City:
j "You ask if I have any difficulty in
disposing of goats for meat. None at
all. The packers buy goats as well
as sheep. They make a difference of i
about half a cent a pound in favor of
sheep when buying, and as they never
sell goats they save that difference in i
selling."
The government's goat expert declares
that goat moat is much better
food than mutton, and that nothing
except the prejudice against the goat
born of the paragraphers' jokes prevents
there being a demand for goat's
flesh as food and a willingness to pay
a higher price for it than for mutton.
If this publication of Uncle Sam.
which really should be called "In I
Praise of the Goat." is widely read and
believed in there doubtless will soon !
be an extraordinary demand for goat
flesh and no one need yearn in vain
at any time of the year for a bit of |
venison. It is the opinion of half a
dozen goat authorities quoted that
Billy's flesh, when Billy is properly
fed, cannot be distinguished from ven- j
ison. In fact, some of the enthusiasts j
say that goat is gamier and better
than deer, provided the animal gets j
its entire subsistence by browsing.
One correspondent of the agricul- j
tural department living in New Mexico I
tells of a certain St. Louis community !
which ate Angora "venison"' and I
never knew that it was killed by the
knife of a butcher instead of by a rifle
ball of the hunter.
Another correspondent tells of a
woman who kept a boarding-house in 1
the country for summer sojourners '
from New York, and who fed them i
regularly twice a week on goat meat ;
and was complimented by her board- :
ers on the prime quality of her mutton.
One Texas enthusiast says: "Anybody
who has ever tasted a roasted I
or barbecued piece of Angora mutton j
will find it better than any meat he ;
ever before ate."
Still another goat advocate says
that the flesh is 50 percent better than
mutton, and yet it sells to the butchers j
for less money, so mucft for prejudice.
In view of these encomiums it is not
so hard to forgive one's butcher for
delivering an occasional bit of Billy in
lieu of a ram.
Queen Victoria's Tartan.
Early in her reign Queen Victoria
adopted a tartan, or, to be exact, she
resumed one, for by way of James I.
of England she is entitled to use one.
Accordingly, the royal household disports
itself in the dress plaid of the
Stuarts when it holds forth at Balmoral,
and it has now become so thor- !
oughly identified with the present
English sovereign that it is called the
Victoria tartan. This is the well
known blue, green, white and yellow
plaid mounted on a white ground, instead
of the vivid red that is usually j
seen.
To complicate the matter of tartans j
further, each clan was likely to have j
a hunting plaid, a dress plaid, a
mourning plaid, and the- plaid that ,
was worn exclusively by the chief and
his Immediate family. Then, too, if
you happen to be a Cameron, for example,
and think it an easy matter to
betake yourself to a shop and demand
the Cameron plaid, you had better be
certain whether you are a Cameron of ;
Lochiel or a Cameron of Erracht j
Similarly, you may be a MacDonald of !
Clanranald, of Sleat, or of Staffa, It
will make an immense difference in
the kind of tartan you get, and it Is j
not to be expected that a Campbell of
Argyll would be seen in the tartan of
the Campbells of Cawdor, or in that

is, by the way, at least one of the large !
shops in New York that always has j
the correct tartans imported from
Scotland in stock. As the demand for
them increases it is probable that it I
will be easy to obtain the genuine ar- i
tide here will all the accuracy that
distinguishes the Edinburgh shops.

A Championship Snake Story.
Henry Karnes, a well known teamster
of Oil City. Pa., killed 95 snakes
in less than 10 minutes near Horse j
creek one forenoon, and it is believed
that this is the county's record for <
snake-killing exploits, although wheu '
the facts are known the feat does not j
seem so remarkable, but that is one of j
the features of snake stories. Mr. j
Karnes was loading stone on 0. H.
Strong's farm in the Horse creek dis- !
trict, and took his wife and "several
other ladies with him from here to {
pick berries. Hearing a scream from
his wife, he hurried to her. She declared
that she had come across a rattlesnake.
Mr. Karnes made a search ;
and found a garter snake was the
cause of the alarm, but it was a mon- I
ster, four feet one inch in length and
big around. He killed the reptile and
discovered that inside of it were 94 !
young ones, ranging from three to
eight inches in length. What few were
alive after he killed the mother snake
Mr. Karnes put an end to. The
mother snake was measured with a
foot rule and the measurements and
count of the slain are properly authen- |
ticated.?Oil City Derrick.

This Tigress Has a Crudge.
There is a lean tigress in the Central
Park menagerie who spends a
part of the day beating her head
against the iron bars of her cage in
a vain attempt to spring upon one of
the keepers. Ordinarily the animal Is
quiet enough. It is only when this
keeper passes that she ceases to be a
purring cat and becomes a fiend incarnate.
The other morning the tigress
was in an extremely bad temper. When
her fancied enemy stuck a mop in
through the bars to clean her cage,
she sprang at him. growling in thunderous
bass." Nearly everbody in the
crowd stepped back involuntarily. The
keeper placed an iron bar in the cage
at the great cat's feet and went on
with his work, while the animal snarled
in impotent rage and drew back her
upper lip over two gleaming white
fangs.
"She doesn't seem to be fond of
you," ventured a bystander.
"No, there isn't much love lost between
us," replied the keeper. "Her

grudges just like people. That tigress
came here eight years ago. A day or
two after she arrived I had to punish
her and she's never gotten over it. She
watches me all day out of the corner
of her eye and every time I go by the
cage she makes a jump. I suppose she
thinks she'll get me some time. If
she does I might as well say good by."
While the man talked t.he tigress
looked at him with hate plainly stamped
on her face. When he went away
she watched him until he was lost to
view. Then she resumed her nervous
