Queer Doings of a One Eyed Cat.

There is an old cat in Cobbhan, a sub
urb of Athens, that lately called forth
much interest from its owners by its
mysterious behavior. Since the late de-
structive cyclone at Louisville and othe-
western cities, carrying in its mouth
death and destruction, this Cobbham cat
has grown quite a curiosity in the feline
tribe. Every time it thunders, and dark
clouds roll over the canopy of heaven in
q manner that threatens storm, the cat
begins to tremble piteously, and screams
in the most weird and frightful accents
of its tale Of woe. When the lightnings
fash from cloud To cloud the cats agony
seems to know no limit, and it rolls over
and over, yelling in the widest way pos
siblc.
Even at the dead hour of night this
mysterious cat will rush frantically into
the room Of its mistress when clouds ap-
pear and eill scream in terror. The cat
is large blacl. animal and has but one
eye, the other having suddenly disar
pcared recently The cat is the propertJ
of one Of the leading families o. Cobb
