squall and vanished This was re-
peated three times Thinking that
the feline was mad. Mr. Mattox call
ed to his companion, who came out OF
the shaft and gave chase, Around
wards, though back alleys and gar
dens, they pursued their tormantor,
but the cat eluded them and with a
loud, prolonged wall vanished from
sight. On returning to the shaft and
going down, what was the astonish-
ment of the miners to find that the
earth had caved in. com pietely filing
up the drift Had not the miner
