A Cat That PLAYS the Piano.

Milton Moshier. of Shelton. Conn.,,
heard sounds from his piano the other
morning, and knowing that no one was
in the room he began to be a believer in
spirits. On investigation he found his
cat prancing up and down on the key
board, seemingly delighted at the sounds
produced. After that she was watched,
and whenever the piano is left open she
will play upon it to. the best of her
ability.-Cor. New York Sun.

A Merry-Go-Round.

Our bad man thought sure something
queer would happen to the Keating
Implement & Machine Company, of
Dallas, when he learned that, besides
being a deacon in the church himself, G.
A. Keating had induced Harry Keating
to join his flock and substitute white
paint for the carmine Harry had used SO
lavishly on numerous occasions. Since
Harry became catalogue editor of this
concern, which carries everything in
stock from sucking pump to NAM
moth coal consuming engine, he has
advertised SO extensively that when a
man wants anything, from pension to
a car load of assorted implements and
machinery, he Immediately writes to the
Keating Implement & Machine Com
pany, Dalles, Tex, and is seldom disap-
pointed in securing what he wants.
However, F. Tate, of Fairfield, Tex, hit
Harry below the belt when he wrote for
teen buggies-no horses" Harry gave
it up in the following honest confession
"Replying to yours of June IA, have
quit drinking and joined the Salvation
Army; therefore, while 1 regret it very
much, I will be compelled to decline
your invitation for merry-go-round.
In my younger days and before the, Texas
climate got in its work 1 would not
hesitate to get on a jag that would easily
enable me to go round with you in
twelve or fourteen buggies, with or with
out. horses. I have lot of red paint
left over which will donate, but cant
join you. .''-Te1as Farm and Ranch.

colt, Teller and Hale. The first

plainly that If there were MAORI

State of Colorado, solidly opposed
to the united Intelligent white vote
that in some way and By some
method the white vote would g vern.
That he is IL broad guage man the
following words from his speech
fully demonstrates; "For quar-
te7 of century, out from poverty
and despair, the South has been
reaching forth in efforts to plant
It's foot on the solid rock of u,atcri-

A CUMBERSOME LAW.
The Supervisors Trying to Simplif,
Street Widening.

The Supervisors Trying to Simplify
Street Widening.
The members of the Street Committee are
still struggling with proposed amendments
to the street law. In THE CALL of Satur-
day last was published full description of
the amendment that is aimed to provide for
the changing Of established grades. Another
much-needsd improvement is in the law
providing for street opening, and that is
what the committee is now laboring upon.
As the law now stands no kind of street
opening, however small or unimportant
can be prosecuted without the usual pro-
cess OF condemnation and the appointment
OF a commission. Just at present the Super
vlsorS have in hand two or three proposed
street-widening schemes, none of which in
wolves enough land to merit the trouble and
expense OF a commission, and yet the work
is needful For instance, interested prop
erty-owners desire the widening of Hickory
avenue, between Octavia and Laguna
streets, to a uniform width strip of land
17XS5 feet is needed. There is no way to
obtain it except as provided by law. The
appointment OF three commissioners and a
secretary. attorney and other incidentals
would mean not less than $500 a month eX-
pense. II their work was completed inside
OF TWO months the public would stare at
mem IN Wonderment, expecting to see
wings or other evidences of spiritual trans
formation. Putting it briefly, it would be
an unheard-of case OF economical dispatch if
the work of commission could be disposed
of for less than $1,000.
This most clearly illustrates the cumber-
soineness of the present law. The property
IN Inc case mentioned could, in all proba-
billy, be purchased for a much less sum,
and yet the value of land seldom shrinks
under the forcible process of condemnation.
The case cited is only one of several
under consideration by the committee.
The work is demanded and vet how to do
1t without so much unnecessary expense is
the yeXing problem. The law will doubt
less be amended; just how even the COM
mittea 90 not know vet

II. j. Fallon Sued for Assuming to Act as
District Attorney.
Patrick Donahue and others have sued
the city and county of San Francisco, ex-
Sheriff Charles S. Laumeister, F. j. Fallon
and John and Charles Hinkel. alleging that
in July, 1883. the defendant Fallon procured
the arrest of one Martin Gallagher on a
charge of felony. and that the plaintiff be-
came surety on his bail bond of $1,000, which
was forfeited owing to the latter's failure to
appear Iheteupon proceedings were in
stituted by Fallon to secure the sum stated
he assuming TO act as District Attorney in
so doing, although without authority, as 1t is
contended. The defendant Laumeister at
tached the plaintiffs property and sold the
same to the defendants Hinkel to satisfy
the Judgment procured against the plaintiff
as surety on Gallagher's bond, and there
still appears TO he due $500 on the same
Fallon also threatens to secure this by
means of an alias writ of execution, and
Judgment is therefore prayed declaring the
proceedings of Falon and tho execution null
and void. and restraining the defendants
from all further proceedings in the matter
