TACKLED BY A CAT.
An Old York State Hunter Meets with
Surprise.

a Surprise.
George Maben, of Big Indian in the
Catskills, had rough experience with
wildcat in the mountains recently
writes a Kingston correspondent of
the New York Sun. Maben for several
years has tracked bears, wildcats, and
other animals. One day he started
out for hunt with William Hall, an
old-time hunter of Potter county,
Pennsylvania, who had been trying his
luck in the Catsllills. They were ac-
compan;ed by hound owned by Hall.
After a tramp through the snow Of
several hours the dog indicated that
he had discovered some animal in
hole in ledge of rocks. Maben who
was some distance ahead of Hall, hur-
ried to the dog and, dropping on his
knees, peered into the hole. In an
instant something fell upon his back
with a heavy thud. A terrific howl
soon convinced him that he was in the
clutches of a wildcat. With the ami
malls claws firmly imbedded in his
clothes Maben rolled over and over in
biiC oaON, Sudt OIAS lio ioitc Nlbu Ills
arms as much as possible. In the
meantime the dog began series of
attacks upon the cat, and in his rage
frequently seized upon the limbs of
Maben instead of the animal. The
fight between the dog and cat was
savage one, but the former managed
to pull the cat off of Maben. and his
companion who had hastened to assist.
speedily laid the animal low with a
well directed shot. MaDen, who was
found 10 be badly hurt, was assisted to
the nearest residence and physician
summoned. There were two ugly
wounds in Maben's shoulder and neck
and his side was badly lacerated. The
injured hunter is now confined to his
bed. The cat weighed thirty-seven
pounds, and its hide is now on exhibi-
tion at the Big Indian hotel.

Ii Memory Of Thomas Jefferson
StraWn.

''In the midst of life we are in
DEATH" is fact SO well known.
that it has become almost com
mon place. We look upon the
cold features of the dead with
calm curiosity more often than
with sad thonghtfullness, unless it
be that one whom we loved has
left US; then our hearts bleed, but
very soon the wounds heal, and
Alas! rarely leave our hearts more
tender. Such is the effect, but roi
the mission of sorrow.
We are TO slow to love the Lord
and yet slower to learn that all
things work together for good to
those who love him. Had we all
that faith. we wonld be masters
of philosophy of life, To be a
good Sufferer is a mighty achieve
mcnt.
By the tragic, cruel, and un-
timely death of Thomas Jefferson
Strawn, many hearts have been
brought to grief, and to none is the
grief more pungent than to those
who knew him best.
For to know well good hearted,
genial soul such as he was, is but
to love him. He had friends where
ever he was knowu, and most
friends and best friends where he
was best known.
Thomas Jefferson Strawn. son of
Jacob and Elizabeth Strawn was
born March 17th. 1854, and died
June, 9th, 1891. HIS funeral cor
Quoted by Rev. Byron Palmer, of
Columbus, OHIO, who preached on
the "Crucible of SORROW" was held
at Morris chapel, Il few miles west
of Logan. Hooking Co. Ohio. and
his remains were inferred in the
Strawn burrying ground near by.
Gone, our brother, hast thou left usc
DoSt thou walk the unknown shore?
Deaths cold hand of thou bereft us.
Shall we ever know thee more?
Gone, beyond the mists and shadows,
Drifting on Il boudlesS sea:
While oul hearts Otr streams and meadows
Restless roam in search OF thee.
Life to thee was summers morning,
Sunshine CLEANED upon thy path
Fell TO Siiauow as warning.
Of the hear approach OF death.
AS The maiden mourrs the flower

So our young hearts richest dover,
We beStOw on hIm we lost.
Fare thee Well. thOu'rt ours no longer:
Thee TO silent eaIth we give;
Timid laith by hope made stronger,
Whispers peace he yet may live
Soon we'll drop the outward token,
Soon our eyes will cease to weep;
Yet soul, n soul heart broken,

For such love rs life eternal,
And the heart that sighed for thee,

4 Town In the Midst of Marshes With

4 Town In the Midst of Marshes With
Small Prospect
Let us go back to the beginning Of
all things writes Walter Besant in
Harpers monthly-to the lay of the land
in which London was planted. The
reader. if be viii consult that very ad-
mirable book, ''Loftie's History of
London, will find a most instructive
map. 1t shows the terrain before the
city was built all. The river Thames,
between Moltlake on the west and
Blackwall on the east, pursued SER
pentine way, in the midst of marshes
stretching north and south. There were
marshes all the way. At spring tides
and at all tides 1, little above the CON-
mon these marshes were under wafer:
they were always swampy and covered
with ponds; half dozen tributary
brooks flowed into them and were lost
IN them. They varied greatly in
breadth. being generally much broader
on the south side than on the north.
On this side the higher land rose up
suddenly in cliff or steep hill from
twenty to five-and-thirty feet in height.
This cliff. followed from the east ap-
preached the river, touched it at one
point and then receded again as it went
westward. This point where the cliff
overhung the river, was the only place
where the city could have been
founded.
call ita point, but it consisted of two
hillocl1s, each about thirty-iive feet
high, standing on either side of the
little stream of Walbrook, where it flows
into the Thames On one OF these hills,
probably that on the west, was asmall
fortress of the Britons, constructed
pfter the well-known fashion of hill
forts. numberless examples OF which
remain scattered about the country.
On The other hillock The Roman city
was first commenced.
Here was the beginning of the city;
here was instituted very early a ferry
over the river. On The eastern hill the
Romans built their forum and basilica
with the official houses and quarters.
When foreign trade began to increase
the merchants were obliged to spread
themsely es along the bank; they built
quays and river walls to keep out the
water. and the city extended laterally
to east and west just as far as was
convenient for the purposes of trade;
that is. not farther than Fleet street
on the west. and the present site of the
Tower on the east. 1t than began to
spread slowly northward, but slowly,
because a mile of river front can accom-
nodate great working population
