a Remarkable Cat.

Among the permanent fixtures of the Congress mining camp. at Martinez, Is eat of unusual intelligence for q member of the feline tribe. It is great favorte with the hrawny armed, good natured miners at work there. 1t Is ol the "Thomas" persuasion, m sex, snd in color so black that he casts shadow on the darkest nights. He takes his turn on the night shift aS regularly as the gong rings to call the men. He es- corts the men up the trail to the mine in groups, going up with tine first squad and then returning meets each succeed- ing one and accompanies It to the mine. When all are at work he goes from one shift to another where the men are at work, and never leaves the mine until the shift is called oil Tn the morning, unless there are visitors during the night In the latter case he Is sure to hear them approach, and will come down the trail until he meets them, when he will escort :hem to the mine and show them the greatest courtesy by accompanying them through 1t. When they leave. however, he again joins the miners at work, as before, gong from one opening to another, apparently su- perinteuding the work. When the night shift leaves he follows the men to the boarding house, but rarely eats any thing there, and never any cooked food, and then accompanies the day shit back to the mine After all are at work
 he lies down on sack of ore or any thing convenient for about an hour, when he disappears, and search-war- rant would not discover his where
 abouts until the gong sounds again for the men to go to work at night. He keeps up this habit as religiously as though the entire responsibility of the work rested on him, and no amount of persuasion can induce him to remain In the office or lodging rooms at night for any length of time when there Is a force of men at work. The cat belong ed to Dennis May. who kept hrm for about two years, and who tells a re- msrkable story of his extreme sensitive ness. X little over a year ago, during the stormy weather of winter when navi- gation was practically impossible, MT. May ran short of provisions and there
  was nothing in his cabin but bacon and beans. both of which the cat refused to eat. May angrily remarked that if he couldn't eat bacon and beans he could leave camp. Getting out of the cabin shortly after, the cat disappeared, and nothing was seen of him for two months, when he returned again and has been a constant resident ever since.
