A Chicago doctor says that no error is more
common than that of starving the eat to make it
a good mouser. The practice has arisen from
mistaken notion that cat kills rats and mice
for food, whereas it is quite as much for sport.
The cat should have at least two meals day, at
regular hours. Furthermore, he says that eats
panacea for all their ilis-keeps the stomach in
order, cools the blood, prevents humors and aids
digestion 1t is supposed to aid in getting rid Of
the hairs swallowed during the process of wash
ing.

The Lady in Scarlet.

Detroit Free Press.
A lady in Washington has been commented
upon this winter for having nothing to wear.r
By this they did not mean that she was 'in full
dresss-below the waist--after the Washington
fashion, but that she wore the same pink gown
at every reception. Here comes the lady in
pink" Mrs. Blaine is said to have remarked,
with slight sneer, to which the lady in pink re-
torted: Mrs. Blaine when my husband has
been as successful in Office and as long as yours,
/ shall have more dresses than the one pink
dress. Whereupon Mrs. Blaine became ''ths

Mast, last Thursday evening They complain
that he gave them no information in regard to

cartoons in charcoal did years ago. The fault
may be, however in his inability to impart
knowledge. AS it was, he left his audience
uniformed as to the modes and methods of his

Although several select luncheon parties and
few pleasant evenings have been given during

in the form of reception. wedding, or ball. In

in q quiet manner. Miss Anna Baggs enter

sented good musical programme Altogether,
the week, though not as brilliant as many
former ones has been spent in a manner condu

BritiSn Wheat.
New York Tribune.

The lowest average price of wheat
in England ever recorded deserves
especial mention. Prior to last year
the low-watcr mark was the yearly
Gazette average of 36 shillings per
quarter in 1880, more than century
ago. Reckoning the quarter at eight
bushels and the penny at two cents,
this is equivalent to 81 O6 per bushel.
The higHest average in any week last
year was 80 shillings the first week in
January, the lowest average in any
week being 30s sd, November 30.
The question whether British agri-
culture can maintain itself and cor
tinue wheat growing at such prices,
though discussed in some papers, is
not seriously debated by competent
English authorities. Tt is agreed that
a great decrease IN British product ion
of wheat must follow, unless mater
lal advance in prices can be speedily
and permanently established. At
present, it is agreed, no considerable
advance can be expected; for though
the London Economist says "higher
prices are necessary If larger supplies
are to be attracted either from India
or Australia" it is referring to the
production in future years and net to
the marketing of crops already raised.
The worlds supply for the current
year is SO large that any advance of
Importance is likely to be seized by
farmers as an opportunity for selling

what they were forced TO, at the prices
of September last, has not been sus-

months

Fighting for a Widow.

QUEBEC, Jan. PA desperate en-
counter between two suitors for the
hand OF a widow occurred in this
county near Lewis. The parties are
residents Of this city. The men had
seconds, and begun the fight with
pistols but finding that method too
slow, drew knives ard hacked each
other until separated. One man is
in the hospital with a bullet hole
through his hip and several knife
thrusts through his body. The other
is wounded but nof so seriously. Tne
affair, which has just come to light,
will be subjected to magisterial in

exceed 100. and 355 of its houses have
been reveled TO the ground. The
miner towns and villages have also
suffered very severely. II these shocks
continue, the population of this dis
trlct will abandon the ruins Of their
homes altogether.
The work OF relief goes on very
slowly, and but little is done to re-
lieve even the urgent necessities in
the most afh jcted districts. The whole
population of the provinces affected
appear to tkiak that under the cir
cumstances it is the duty of the
authorities to supply them with food
and shelter. The officials themselves
can do but little, and are awaiting
orders and funds from the central
government. The most prac ical,
most experienced donor thus far has
been the queen mother, Isabella, who
sent her donation direct to the gov
erRsr of Granada, by whom it was at
once distributed among the people.
The archbishop of Granada has
received $500 from Dona Margarita
in her own name and ia that of Don
Carlos.
The clergy and all the religious
bodies have shown great courage and
coolness in the midst of the general
panic. They have euieted and allay-
ed the fears of the people by their
solemn PROFESSIONS; they have moved
through the ruined streets, praying
with the dying, ministering to the
wounded, and aiding Ia extricating
the sufferers from the debris of the
houses. Many, indeed, have shown
extreme bravery IN the rescue of the
victims; one parish priest, at the risk
of his life, saved seventeen children,
although himself wounded by the fall
ing stones.
Although the last shocks were but
slight here, the authorities have re-
ceived information that they were
felt with much greater intensity at
Periana, Velez, Malaga, Terrox, and
he places which felt the full force OF
the earlier shocks, and that many
tottering houses were brought down.
A telegram has been received this
evening from Granada to the effect
that shock sharper than any lately
felt was experienced there at 8 o'clock
It created muen alarm, but did no
damage beyond bringing down some
ceilings in the government house,
and ia leveling four houses already
badly shaken. IF a continuance of
these shocks goes on, the health of
the population will begin to suffer
The constant state of tension and ex
element, the sleepless nights, the ir
regular and scanty meals can not but
produce bad result, especially upon
SO impresslonable a people.
A very good effect has been produc-
ed this evening by the publication
of the news that the king will visit
Malaga next week. He will leave
Madrid for Granada en- Thursday,
and will visit all the districts of the
province which have suffered most
severely, and will then coae on to
Malaga.

Thinks the. Pole Can be Reached

Thinks the Pole Can be Reached.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 27.-Chief Ea-
gineer Melville, of Arctic fame, issued
to day an address to the American
public wherein he expresses his belief
that the time is now ripe for the
making Of final and successful voy-
age to the north pole. The route he
advocates is by the way OF Franz
Josef's land, and he declares it to be
an entirely safe and feasible one. 1t
would be, he thinks, a. actual saving
of life 10 make the attempt now before
the knowledge born of experience ex
pires, and he trusts that there is some
Ean In America who will rise
to the occasion. and from his abuud
ance supply the paltry sum requisite
70 to ft out an active expedition.
This sum he holds at $50, 900, provid
ing transport ship is only chartered,
or s130, 600 if it be retained, which he
asserts is not necessary. He will
write, he says, the name of his patron
across the polar continent. He has
volunteers for every position con
nected with the proposed enterprise.
