HAS HERD OF WILD ANGORAS

Farmer’s Pet Goats Forgot Domesticity in Oregon Mountain Home. Hood River, Ore.—Fpr the last several w-eeks mountaineers who have made the ascent of Mount Hood have been contradicting the statements of authorities on Northwestern natural history by reports of having sighted wild sheep or goats high on the snowfields of the peak. A drove of the animals near the summit of the snowpeak, huddled under the shelf of a- glacial precipice, was recently seen by Hans and Paul Hoerlein, William Marshall, W.' B. Arens and Ned Crawford. The mystery was explained by P. H. Mohr, a young upper valley homesteader, who was in the city on business. “It’s my herd of Angoras run wild,” said Mr. Mohr.
