gerous to remain any longer. The decesed

attempted to replace it, thinking it would
do less damage to the train, but in so doing
he was struck in the back, and thrown a
distance of about fifty feet against a rock,

A Strange Cat.-A Harrisburg paper
says Mr.. John Grove, of Baldwin, is the
possessor of the strangest cat we have seen
any account of lately. Some days since
Mr.. Grove brought into the house two
young rats. Pussy eyed them sharply,
but the sweet morsel was denied her and
the young rats carefully Gagged up for the
night. In the morning Mr.. Grove placed
one on the floor near the cat, which, with
her kittens, was sleeping quietly on the
hearth. Pussy opened her eyes, stretched
her paws and gently drew his young
ratship along side her kittens. The other
one was then placed near her, when she
did the same thing and, singular as it may
seem, she has not only refused to harm the
rats, but has actually nursed and cared for
them as gently and tenderly as for her kit
tens. At night kittens and rats are tucked
away by her in their little BEDS when she
watches over them till morning. This
strange conduct has been witnessed by
many and is strictly true.

the vehicle was nearly demolished, and the
young men thrown out but fortunately
were not injuied.
