Evidence That Cats Talk.

An Androscoggin county woman will have it that animals talk to each other, And this is the anecdote she relates to prove her theory, says the Lewiston Journals: She has two cats. Dot and Dots youngest, named for his exploring propensities Christopher Columbus. One morning little bird flew in at the open window, and falling to the floor lay panting and dying. Christopher Colum. bus just then appeared in the doorway
 ''No, you don't, Christopher Columbus, exclaimed his mistress, and, procuring a tiny box, she put the still warm body of the feathered mite into it and made a deep grave under the apple tree. Chris
 topher followed and looked longingly al the box, then went away where he was not seen for some time: Only Christo
 pher witnessed the burial, yet an houl after, going out to look at the grave
 she found Dot had dug up the box ant Christopher was just about to devoul the dainty mouthful. Now if Christo pher didn't go to Dot and say:" Mother there is little bird buried under tha' apple tree; get it for me, please" how did Dot know there was a bird there?

DANGEROUS FREIGHT.
A Cargo That Steamship Men Do Not
 Like to Carry.

A Cargo That Steamship Men Do Not
 Like to Carry.
 The recent discussion as to whether ocean liners should carry cotton as well as passengers, and at the same time has brought out another fact. It is, says the New York Recorder, that they carry other kinds of freight that makes the danger of fire just as great as from cotton. A person who knows some thing of such matters states that just at present there are being made large inn portations of French silk that are es- pecially dangerous as freight.
 "At present importers here," the gen. tleman said, "are receiving large con- signments of a heavy-dyed silk known as French twist. The French manufac- turers do not spare the dye of these goods, for it adds to their weight. In this dye chemicals of a peculiar kind are used, and it is this fact that makes this silk dangerous freight.
 "There is always fear of spontaneous combustion unless the greatest care is taken in packing the goods. These come in bales of various sizes, but gen. erally averaging about five hundred pounds. They are wrapped in cotton bagging with underlying layers of straw and brown paper, and are made compact by nyoraullc pressure. There is constant danger of fire originating from them, and they must be watched with care while in transit. There have been cases where bales have been de stroyed from the causes mentioned, and not many years ago serious fire was caused on French steamer by these same goods."
 Steamship men generally say that they are aware of the danger of carry ing these silks, and that the greatest care is taken whenever they are car ried as freight. One or two lines, in deed, discriminate against this freight and will not carry it.

 People who strive to elevate certain classes in the social fabric, often find to their surprise, that these very per, sons jealously guard the barriers oi class distinctions. The following illus tration of that fact is given by the author of "Four Years in Rebul Cap. itals."
 A Richmond lady had maid who devoted and constant to her mistress still burned with curiosity for sight ot everything pertaining to Mars Lin. kum's men," and especially for "de skule." For swift indeed had new corners been to preach the gospel of Alphabet, and negro schools seemed to have been brought in by every army ambulance, so numerous did they spring up in the captured capital. So, early one day, Clarissa Sophia donned her very best, and with shining face, hied her, like anything but snail, to school.
 Very brief was her absence, her re. turn reticent, but pouting and with un. duly tiptilted nose.
 It soon came out that the teacher had begun by impressing the children with the fact that all present were born free and equal" and that each of them was quite as good as she was.
 eva dat yo's sayin' now?" inter rupted Clarissa Sophia. "Yo' say I'se jes' ekal as yo' is?"
 "Yes, said so, and will prove it tc you"
 "Ho! 'tain't no need," was the re sponse. "Reck'n I is, sho' huff. Blu, does yo' say dat I'se good as missus, ms missus?"
 Certainly you are."
 "Den Tse jes' gwine out yere, right off," cried Clarissa Sophia, suiting ac ton to word. ''Ef Ise good as ms missus, I'se goin' ter quit, fer l jes know she ent 'soshiatin' wid no sicf white trash like you is!' -

Made Himself at Homo.

Among the visitors at the white house lately were an old farmer and his two daughters from the west. They were shown through the private parlors by one of the rshers, and then went into the cool and pleasant east room. Soon after the chief doorkeeper had occa' sion to go into the east room and he was greatly surprised to see the old farmer stretched out at full length on one of the large sofas, while his daughters sat near by and famed him to keep the flies away. The old man was dozing. When told he must not make a bedroom of the east room he got uI rather dazed, and remarked that the sofas looked so good he thought they were to rest upon.
