A true story, the scene of which is
laid in Georgia, is told by The Union
Point Bee, and serves to commemor-
ale the deed of cat presumably equal
to any situation.
One day the cat was trotting out
toward the barn, carrying in her
teeth piece of meat for her young.
A bald eagle, which had been in the
habit of lowering over the place, sud.
denly descended upon pussy, and
whirled her upward in a rapid verti-
cal flight. The path of ascent, to a
spectator watching the scene, was
clearly indicated by trifles of loose
feathers violently tossed from the
point of combat.
In time the struggling pair attained
a giddy eminence, and came to a
standstill in the sky. The eagles
wings had dropped now and then, and
he had given plain evidence of pain
and terror, yet not once had hisawful
grip appeared to relax.
AT length descent was begun, with
a rapidity which every moment in
creased, and the two animals struck
the ground at the very point where
they had first encountered each other;
but the eagle was dead, and pussy, as
soon as she felt terra firma beneath her
feet, shot away for the barn, still car
rying her original bit of meat.
Investigation proved that the cat
had cut the eagles throat, and so lac
Grated his breast that his body was lit
orally laid open. After his death in
mid air, however, she had been too
clever to relax her hold, and thus fall
to the ground, but had let her enemy
serve as a parachute to ease the de-
scent. AT last accounts pussy was
none the worse for her aerial flight
and battle.

Globe: a projection organ puts the
amount Of British capital invested in
this country during the past year at
$500, 000.0OO. and says that the indica-
tions are that this will be doubled

to find an argument in favor of pro-
lection in this, as contrasted with
British low tariff policy. 1t is not
questioned that some Of the protected
manufacturers have paid the CAPITALISTS
largely, although the workren dc not

EscaIIeped Oysters:

Wash and. drain one pint of oys-
tiers, moisten one cup cracker crumbs
with cup melted butter. Put q
layer of crumbs in buttered baking
dish, then oysters season with salt
and pepper; repeat, having buttered
crumbs on top. Bake TIVE nty to
thirty minutes.
There is decided difference be-
tween third of aeup of melted, and
a third OF q cup of butter melted.
and this fact should be kept in mind.
If it is desired to make a large
dish OF oysters, milk. may be used to
moisten and less oysters used, but
theioysters are sufficiently moist usu-.
ally Of themselves.
When wine is used it should be adj
ded when it is done, as if put in
while it is being cooked it gives a
bitter taste.
Al thin layertAof cracker crumbs
should be placed between the layers
of oysters, and q thick layer of
crumbs on top.
Some prefer bread crumbs to
stacker crumbs, but the bread is
more .mushy.'
These oysters are rather dry, but
very nice.
This dish is done when. the mois-
ture is bubbling up all over the oys-
tcFs.~ 80 -
Allow an hour for cooking each
quart Of oYsters.
