FELINE DOWNS VULTURE.
Midair Battle Between Captured Cat
and Ea.c.

One day cat was trotting out to-
ward the barn, carrying in her teeth Il
piece Of meat for her young, says the
Union Point Bee. A bald eagle which
had been in the habit of lowering
over the place suddenly descended
upon pussy and w.irled her upward
in rapid vertical flight. The path
of ascent to the eye of a spectator
watching the scene was clearly iudica-
ted by loose feathers violently tossed
from the point of combat.
In time the struggling pair attained
a giddy eminence. and came to a
stanGstill 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 his awful
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 point where they
had first encountered each other; but
the eagle was dead, and pussy, as soon
as she felt terra frma beneath her feet,
shot away for the barn. still carrying
her bit of meat
Investigation showed that the cat
had cut the eagles throat, and so
iacerated his breast that his BODY wa,
literally laid open. After his death
in mijair. however, she had been too
clever to relax her hold and thus fall
to the ground, but had let her enemy
serve as {. parachut to ease the descente
At last account pussy was none the
worse for ler aerial flight and battle.

The Water Question.

At the meeting Of the council last
Saturday night, President Matchett
presided in the absence of Mayor Pat
tison. Considerable business was done
but that which pertained to the water
question, which was to this effect;
Four communications from the Mayor
were received, vetoing resolutions ord
ering water MAINS laid. The couI Gil
recently passed Il resolution resembling
another which ordered water mains in
certain alleys IN the First ward. The
cause of the resembling WAS that the
Water, Light Il Power Co., refused to
lay them III the alleys. The Mayor
took the ground that the company
would get no more revenue from the
mains if they were laid in the streets,
aud The company'S refusal was unWar-
raated. The real cause, lie said, was
that when the mains were in the
streets parties connecting would nave
to lay pipes across the street. These
pipes in the street belong to the com
though private parties must pay Tor
the pipes. The mayor also recommend
ed that the board of public works have
a plat prepared showing how all extern
sions OF the mains should he made and
reducing the cost to the city to the
minimum. Two other resolutions were
vet .pI for he same reasons
Til" fourth veto was TO a resolution
ordering tie mains laid on Belknap
from Hammond TO West Fifth, on
West Faith from Bclknap to Richie
as..iiaa. and on y street from West
>sp.an-i. 10 " est Third street. The
extension on y street, said the mayor,
va ordered II M Mather's request,
and II lie company wished any mains
put IN for their own convenience, the
city ought not 10 be made 10 pay Tor 1t.
All the vctoes We're accepted and the
b ard of public works was ordered to
prepare the plat as recommended We
are not sure that the company can be
forced into the alleys, but we believe
that is the best lace for them and we
are glad TO see the mayor show dis
position to try to find out whether the
people have any rights i'll the case or
not other than the right to be robed
by this corporation.

HYDROPHOBIA IN ENGLAND.
Some Very Curious Statistics Relating te
This Terrible Disease.

ms lerrlDle disease.
About hydrophobia, the Registrar
General has. in his report just issued,
mede an important deduction from his
mortality returns, says the London
Daily News. BY taking groups of
counties and studying the death rate
from hydrorhobia in the districts thus
mapped out during the years lS69-8S.
he finds that the disease has two great
centers in this country. The death
rate diminishes according to the dis
tance from these centers. Lancashire
is the head and front Of the offending
as regards hydrophobia. From that
dreaded disease the annual deaths per
million Of the population are in Ian
cashire $3.50. This is far in excess Of
the death rate from the same cause in
any other part of the kingdom. The
figures most nearly approaching it are
2.4l in Cheshire and 2.43 in the West
Riding, contiguous districts. The
other center is said to be London, be-
cause here the deaths are | so per mil
lion, diminishing to Lao in the extra
| metropolitan portions of Middlesax.
Surrey and Kent. These are high
figures in comparison with the low
death rate in othe: southern counties.
The conclusions of the Registrar
General are apparently confirmed by
the Agricultural Departments account
of the geographical distribution Of
rabies in animals. Naturally, the next
thing the egistrar-Gcneral wants to
know is whether these two centers of
rabies and hydrophobia can be distin-
guished from the rest of the country as
to the numbers and characters of the
dogs inhabiting them. This is an in
CURRY worth making. Meanwhile, the
facts already ascertained justified the
muzzlin@ order in London. The pre-
else number Of deaths from hydropho-
bia in 1885 was fourteen. There were
five in Lancashire, six in London, or
ad dining counties. one in Wiltshire,
one in Cumberland, and one in Glamor-
ganshirc.

Feminine Pride.

The different forms in which pride
besets its victime afford an amusing
study. says the Critic. Girls who
work in shops carry schoolbooks or y
muse roll to and from their place of
business 50 that they may be mistaken
for school girls. though their hours
are certainly not those of the average
pupil. Perhaps they hope to be taken
for special students. The librarian Of
the Merchantilc Library tells me that
ii is common thing for ladies to
tear the paper covers OF the books they
take from the library the moment
they are outside the door. These silly
creaturs thinks il looks finer to carry
an uncovered book than one that is
covcres and they would rather seem
to own n volume than u hi e taken it
from :. library.

LUCK IN A BROKEN MIRROR.
This Accident May Firing a Fortune to
tho Roll Family.


tho Roll Family.
1t has always been considered I'M
lucky to break Il mirror but the one
which Charles Roll of Newark broke
recently will probable prove the cxcep-
ton to the rule The mirror in ques-
ton had been in Rolls family for a
g~eat number of years, during all Of
which time the members OF the family
have been cndeavoring to gain aldi-
tional evidence by which they could
establish their claim to a wide stretch
Of land along the banks Of the Mohawk
river.
1t was known that Jacob Roll. u
Holland Dutcn ancestor. had owned
a large tract of land in these parts
which had been abandoned during the
French and Indian wars but no papers
could be found to fix its exact location,
When the mirror was shattered, be-
WAS found an aged yellow piece of
parchment. 1t was the long-searched
for proof. and is Il deed from the IN
dians to Roll. by which the former
coded Ia the latter thrty-six square
miles OF land near Schenectady. The
estimated value OF the property is now
Sc. 600, 900.
The deed is said to be authentic and
proof of lis validity has been found in
the Old Dut,n records at Albany.
There are about 80 heirs. On Satur-
day night about 100 of them met in
Newark, formed a committee, and
raised fund with which to prosecute
their claim.
