From the Louisville Couier-Journal
A very, very tough story, in which
a chicken, a rat. a cat, a dog and a
hoy figured, was going the rounds in
the East End yesterday. The story
is vouched for by good authority, and
or this account is all the more re-
markable. 1t is related that Mr.. Sam
McOurdy was sitting beneath the
shade of tree in the back yard of
his residence on Clay, near Franklin
street, talking to some friends, when
his attention was called to a hen with
a brood of young chickens and a
large rat that had just emerged from
its hole and was quietly regarding the
young chickens with the prospect of
meal in view. AS the rat came
from his hole the house-cat awoke
from her afternoon nap and caught
sight of the rat. Crouching low, she
awaited developments, and stood
prepared to spring upon his ratship.
At the appearance of his ancient en-
envy, the cat, Scotch terrier, which
had been summing itself in the wood
shed, pricked up its ears and quietly
made for the place where the cat
stood. At this moment boy named
Andy QUAD came upon the scene.
The chickens were not cognizant OF
being watched by the rat, nor did the
rat see the cat, nor the feline the dog,
who had not noticed the coming of
the boy. ssi
A little chick wanderd too nigh and
he was seized by the rat, which wa,
in turn bounced upon by the cat, and
the cat was caught in the mouth of
the dog. The rat would not cease his
hold on the chicken, and the cat, in
spite of the shaking she was getting
from the dog, did not let go the rat.
1t was fun for the boy, and in high
glee he watched the contest and the
struggle of each of the victims. 1t
seemed to him that the rat was about
to escape after time. and getting a
stone he hurled it at the rat. The
aim was not good and the stone hit
the dog right between the eyes and
the terrier released its grip on the Cat
and fell over dead. 1t had not breath
ed its last before the cat in turn let go
the rat and turned over and died.
The rat did not long survive the enc.
my, and by the side of the already
dead chicken he laid himself down
and gave up the ghost.
The owner of the dog was so angry
at his death that he is said to have
come near making the story complete
by killing the boy that killed the dog
that shook the cat that caught the
rat that bit the chicken in the yard
on Clay street.

spots which are called sturgeon wall

Taking advantage Of this, the residents

proceeded on the ice to ono of the
places where the sturgeon most do
congregate. They cut holes in the ics
whore the water was about six feet
deep. Armed with poles which have
hook in loose scket, with stout
heavy cord fastened to the hook and
pole, they would feel along the bottom
for the sturgeon, hook them, and soon
land them on the ice. On Sunday
aboat 40 were taken, and on Monday
more than one hundred, weighing from

was very exciting.

THE ADMISSION or DAKOTA.

The admission Of Dakota is no long
er question Of expediency or partisan
advantage. 1t il one Of simple right
and justice. The population Is now,
at a low estimate, 100000, Of which
$4,000 are in the southern half Il
will have population Of 1000. 900 ~
the time the next census is taken, com.
posed of the very best stock this coun.
try has to furnish. The bulk Of Da-
ko.aians are American citizens who
have changed their residence from one
part of the country to another. They
have n right to representation in Con-
gross, and no party which denies them
this right need expect to get foothold
on the soil Of Dakota. Tho people 81
Dakota should demand admission, not
as humble petitioners seeking great
boon, but as American citizens who
have right to representation in body
which taxes them. The Territory now
has population enough to entitle i. to
two members Of Congress All other
new States when admitted had barely
. sufficient for one member. A demand
80 framed and urged cannot be resisted
by any Congress which pretends "a

THE STOPPING OF THE CLOCK

Surprising falls the instantaneous calm,
The sudden silence i'll my chamber small;
l, starting, lift my head in half alarm
The clock has stopped-that's ALL
Tue clock has stopped! Yet why have so
found
An instant feeling almost like dismay?
Why note its silence sooner than its sound.
For it has tucked all day.
So many life beside my own so On,
And such companionship unhceded keep,
Companionship scarce recognized till gone
And lost in sudden sleep.
And so the blessings heaven daily grants
Are in their very colnmonness forgot!
We little heed what answereth our wants
Until it answers not.
A strangeness falleth on familiar ways,
As il some pulse were cone beyond recall
Something unthought of linked with all OH
days
Some clock has stopped-that's all.

D1RT1rD THEIR OWN NEST.

1t seems that Mr.. Peck in the Leg
isative Council in the discussion OF the
memorial took occasion to
say that he formerly was inclined to
support tho memorial but that the
Northern members in the Lower House
by their insulting criticism had put il
out of the power of anyone with self
respect to support the measure and that
he cons; dered the memorial as dead5
killed by its friends, and nothing re-
manned but to bury it and comfort the
moprne.s. He says "Tomer did it."
"Tomer did it with his little hatchet."
We can with difficulty comprehend
how any Western member could SO far
insult members as TO cause their oppo-
lion to a measure Of so much import
ance to the whole people of the North.
Mr.. Robinson opposed the memorial
because he was not going to allow
Singiser to give away one third Of Ida
ho. Mr.. Robins must know that Mr..
Singiser was instructed by over 5000
majority Of the votes Of Idaho Territory
to allow North Idaho 10 go to WASH
inston, and if he does so, be will only
be carrying out the viii of the people
| as true representative should do. But

behalf of himself when he opposes the

Editorial Notes,

IT is hoped that we will not soor
have another break Ia Office routine
as that of the last few days. Sickness
and bereavement have upset us ter
libly. As soon as We can get thl
tangles out Of our thread Of office
work we will endeavor to keep the
wheels moving as of yore.
AFTER May 1st there will be four
steamers month from San Francisco
in the Z. G. Co.'s line, instead Of three
as heretofore. Travel has been so
large during the past few months
that the steamships plying on the
route, although large, have been to-
tally inadequate. We are informed
that the steamer Mexico will be
placed on duty.
ARTfUL CHINEsE.-Sinoe the pass
age of the anti Chinese restriction act,
our monaghan neighbors have been
more anxious than ever to enjoy the
privilege of nesting under Uncle SIS
wing. The boundary line between
British Columbia and Washington
Territory furnishes an inviting field
for evasion of the law. 1t seems that
large numbers of Cinnamon are con-
gregating in and about Port Moody
and New Westminster, from which
points their efforts to sneak across
the line are unceasing. We are cred
IDLY informed that they have offered
the owner of certain fishing sloop
as high as hundred dollars to snug
gle them across. A few have undoubt-
edly secured passage in Indian canoes
already, as their mysterious appear
ance upon the American side could
not be explained on other grounds un
less they dropped from the clouds
and Mongols don't usually arrive by
that route. Our object in this con-
nection is to call the attention OF the
proper authorities to the state of af-
fairs, to the end that a sufficient num-
ber of government officials may be
stationed along the boundary line to
insure the successful enforcement of
the law.
