Novel Enterprise.

VIM. Sturm, lately a clerk in a dry
goods store in this city, on losing his sit
uation recently, concluded to sell cat
meat. He observed that nearly every
wholesale store had cat, which 1t was q
trouble to feed, as meat had daily to be
sent for. He therefore decided to create
a route and feed each cat at thirty cents
a week, adding milk, if required, at an
extra charge. He now feeds q hundred
cats daily, and his customers are daily
increasing. He carries the meat in q
basket, but soon expects to have a wagon.
Being fairly educated and well-dressed
young man, he seems rather incongruous
with his pursuit. He makes money, how
ever, and his prospects for q handsome
income are good, If he should not have
an army of competitors. The dainties
served to the cats are raw meat, boiled
liver and boiled fish. He claims that his
most aristocratic customer is fat pussy
in College place. She is large, pure
white, has blue ribbons in her ears, and
q silver collar. She has snowy and ex-
pensive rug Tor her couch, and one dollar
q week ia paid for her meat and milk

by the Common Council. We have nothing
now to do but to renew our pledges to perse-

THE NATIONAL GAME.

About $500 persons were present at the game
between the Athletics and Mutuals, played on the
Union Grounds yesterday. The contest opened
we'll for very small score, as neither side was
able to get man across the home plate before the
sixth inning In fact the Athletics we're unable TO
get runner past third base during the entire
game so beautifully did the Mutual's team
play together. In the sixth inning, when
with two men on bases 1t looked as
II they would certainly score, sharp
double play by Hlgham and Burdock doubled
them up. At another time McGeary was splen.
ddy thrown out at the homeplate by Allison,
excellent skill, and was well supported IN the field
by the whole Mutual team. BurdOck at third base
was at his best and played without error. REM
sen, Hatfield and Allison maze some very pretty
catches IN the outfed while Start led at the bat.
This is the second game this season In which the
Athletics were "Cnicagoed." The following is the
