CHARACTER oE CATS.
The View Puss Takes of the Philosophy
of Nature and Life.

The View Puss Takes of the Philosophy
of Nature and Life.
The bent of the cats mind was pleas
Lntly defined few years ago by a
writer in the London Spectator, who
said there could be no doubt as to the
view Puss took of the philosophy of
nature and life. She is quite satisfied
that the world and every thing in it
were made and exists for cats. This
appears in all that well-bred and cared
for cats do, and in every accent and tone
of their voice. Puss possesses herself
with the air of proprietor of the best
place and the best food; expects to be
waited upon; demands share of every
dish; and looks upon US as at once her
Providence and her servant.
Cats are not demonstrative like dogs,
and do not submit to training like the
the horse. The dog has been credited
with unbounded affections, and the
horse with almost human sagacity; but
the cat still suffers under the bad char
acter that Buffon-who can not have
been acquainted with any reputable
specimens of the race-gaye her. She
is said to be selfish, spiteful, cruel,
crafty, treacherous, loving places and
not persons, and in every way unworthy
of fellowship in the household. J. G.
Wood answers these accusations by say.
ing that the cats with which he has
been most familiar "have been as do
cile, tractable and good tempered as any
dog could be, and displayed an amount
Of intellectual power which would be
equaied by very few dogs, and surpassed
be none" To all persons who have
given their confidence to Puss and re
ceived hers in return, they need nC

was one tiger less in the Madapur for
est, knew, for, glancing down at the
foot-board, saw spattered drops of
blood.
All of sudden l heard, above the
dizzy hum of wheels, most terrific
roar, and, turning instantly around
was startled to see the big tiger bound
ing over the rails in hot pursuit
AT every jump he roared, and my first
impression was that he would overtake
the trolly in about one minute. Re-
membering my revolver I took it from
my pocket and cooked it. Another
glance made it apparent that the tiger
was not gaining any, and as the trolly
was now on the very steepest part of the
grade, l felt pretty confident that
would ultimately leave him behind

Horror! The distance between US had
certainly lessened already. took aim
as well as could and fired one cham Der

duced was dismal roar. did not try
another shot, for remem bered that /
would probably have need of the re-
naming chambers for use at close quar-
ters. The sensations experienced as the
trolly gradually lessened its speed were
horrible. For the space of five minutes
suffered torments as actual and real as
though the brute really had me in his
jaws. l was bowling over the level
track now and the tiger was closing in
on the hom estreteh.
A minute or two more and the race
would be ended, for I knew that my re-
volver was about as useless as a pop
gun.
Hag5ly conscious of what was doing
I turned and emptied the remaining
chambers at the tiger as fast as could
pul the trigger. One or more of the
shots must have struck him, for he
stopped short with a fiendish roar, and
then came on more furiously than ever.
I hurled the empty revolver at him
and then settled back on the seat in de-
spair. could hear the soft patter of the
cushioned feet on the ties, the hot
breath seemed to be scorching my neck,
and then gun shot was fred almost
beside my ear and l caught a brief
glimpse of white helmet and a smok-
ing rifle barrel. Itumbled off my trolly
somehow, and there lay my late pur-
suer breathing his life out across the
rails.
My timely rescuer was not Colonel
Danvers, as had supposed, but the res
ident engineer from Decca, who was
spending weeks furlough in the Jungle.
My firing had attracted his attention
and he had arrived just in time. He ac-
companied me back to the station on the
trolly, for was completely unnerved.
Ny recreant Hindus, Pershad and Jung,
were promptly dismissed from the serv-
ice, and picked out two others. who
stoutly affirmed that they had no fear
whatever of tigers.
Ever afterward, however, loaded

kept sharp watch ahead for tigers on
the track, Philadelphia Times.

the railway. That one brief glimpse
stood my hair on end for sprawled lazi-
ly on the track barely fifty yards away
lay monstrous tigress fondling two
cubs that were sporting between the
rails, and beside her stood the father of
the family sweeping his big tail to and
fro, and calmly watching my approach.
just there the trolly struck a sleeper
part of the grade, and away it went with
rush. The sensations of that moment
were indescribable.
L grasped the brake wildly and threw
all my strength against it. For one
brief second the speed slackened per-
ceptibly. Then came a quick, sharp
crack, and off she went again at such a
dizzy speed that the tangled foliage of
the jungle shot past like wavy green
curtain.
The brake had given way. The
thought of jumping off never occurred
to me. hung to the seat in helpless
terror, my gaze fixed with a resistless
fascination on the group of tigers ahead.
They were terribly close now, and I
closed my eyes with shudder as re-
membered what would happen when
the trolly struck that great tawny brute
and bounded into the air.

ing the tigress walk leisurely off the
track at the last moment, followed by
one of her cubs.

lolling out and then, as the trolly
bounced and grated over some obstacle,
and my ears were deafened by most
fearful snarling, knew that had run
over one of the cubs. The jolting was
over in an instant, and the trolly, with
out leaving the rails, swept on down the
grade at terrific rate of speed. Thera

origin Of tho Confederate Gray.

According to the views Of member
Of the Military Committee on the Lee
Monument, there is peculiar reason
why the New York Seventh should be
here at the unYeiling. If that gentle
man is correct, to the visit of that fa-
nous regiment here in 1857 was due the
adoption of the gray uniform by the
Confederate army. When the Seventh
Regiment came down here on that visit
the First Regiment and other military
commands Of this city had such uniforms
as each organization chose. The hand
some gray dress of the Seventh Regiment
attracted great deal of attention in
military circles, and soon after their re-
turn home the First Virginia Infantry
of Richmond adopted similar uniform.
This was Just before the civil war broke
out. The committeeman Is confident
that the Confederaey took the gray
uniform of the First Regiment as =
