WE read with peculiar interest the edi-
,orial leaderin the New York Star, which
treats Of the catastrophe TO eleven feline
pets Of the Young Ladies Art Club. The
ianitor was suspected Of assassination,
and If the tragedy had happened south Of
Washington it would have been put in
Sherman's outrage mill before this.
The Stqr says that 1.-The whole affair
was shrouded in mystery until, one re-
cent morning, Ko.Ko-the last of the
pets-was discovered deyouring a par
ticularly atrocious work in oils which
had been left in the studio overnight
The cat, as Mr.. Dana's pet has proved, is
critical animal Ko-Ko, when left
alone in the studio, found great deal Of
work Of which he could not approve and
he attempted to destroy it. The large
quantity Of paint that he swallowed
however, ruined his stomach, and sent
him to. an early grave. Salmagundi'
Airy, Fairy Lillian and other pets who
preceded Ko-Ko evidently met the same
fate"
