I h1v. been ct fanoicr ali my lie, and
have had some Of the most anectionnte
and some Of the clevefest cats that eyef
adorned the domestic hearth Of man.
But the Canterbury cats were areveia-
ton. Fancy over dozen sleek, hand
some pussy cats walking the tight-rope,
blowing trumpet, holding up . bottle
between their paws and drinking out OF
II, jumping through hoops Of hre, and
generally performing feats which would
make even Tom Jennings's Acrobat take
q back seat and ask the Link boy to 60
first with the light, would mot have
believed such performance as that gone
through by Mr.. Leoni Clarke's feline
friendspossible had not seen It.
Talk about infant prodigies, you should
see what his kittens can dol Little Josef
Hoffman, and Master Otto Hegner would
be proud to acknowledge them as broth
ers-in art.
The entire show is marvellous example
Of what can be done even with the most
unpromising animals by patience and
Kindness. The climax Is reached when
two cats. at a single word Of command,
go up onto rope stretched acrose the en-
tire length OF the hall and as high as the
roof, and coolly walk across Il, pretend
ing TO fall in the middle, and executing
with most perfect address all the little
tricks with which M. Blondin used to
heighten the excitement Of his perform
ance.
am told that Mr.. Clarke would not
take ECO for either Of the cats that per-
form that marvellous tight-rope act, and
can quite believe 1t. London Referee.

1t is mistake to suppose that the type
writer is OF recent origin. It was invented
as long ago as TIA by one Henry Mills,
who in that year obtained a patent in
England for q. device that would write
printed characters, one at time, or one
after the other" There is no description
of this device to be had now, but there is
no doubt that Mills invention was the
parent Of the present typewriters. In
1888 French patent was granted to Mons.
Progrin (Xavier), of Marseilles, for a
typewriter, which he called topographic
machine. The account of the machine is
somewhat obscure, but enough is given
to show that 1t was an operative one, by
which typewriting could be fairly well
executed. M. Foucault sent to the Paris
Exhibition Of 1855 writing machine for
the blind, and several typewriters were
invented by Wheatstone. After success
sive improvements, Messrs. Remington,
in 1873, contracted to construct twenty
i've thousand.

4 Very Modest Tribe.

In Sumatra there is very singular race
OF human beings called the Kubus. They
are the most timid and bashful people in
the world, being too shy to mingle with
the other races OF the island. They dwell
in the darkest recesses OF the mountain
forests, and have seldom been seen by
white men. One has never been known
to willingly face a stranger. This being
the case, their trnde with the Malayans Ii
carried on in very strange way. The
trader announces his arrival by beating q
gong, and then retires from the place Of
rendezvous. The shy Kubus then APP
proach, put their forest treasures on the
ground, beat the traders gong and re-
treat.
The trader then returns and lays his
commodities down in quantities sufficient
TO pay purchase price 81 the goods on
sale. He then disappears for the second
time, this to give the Kubus a chance to
return and consider the bargain. After
many Withdrawals, approaches, gong
beating, &C., an understanding ID arrived
ut, and each party carries away his bar
gain. This remarkable race know moth
ing Of Supreme being, heaven, hell or
evil demons. They have no system OF
marriage and never bury their dead.
They live ON snakes, ants, bugs, grubs,

GRACE On Ilis Track.

A good story is told Of Dr.. w. G. Grace,
The celebrated cricketer. In his early
days he was q capital sprinter and hurdle
jumper, athletic qualities which once en-
abled him to run to earth welI-known
thief. The incident took place at Berkeley,
in Gloucestershire. A powerful-looking
thief had been given into the custody Of
Of . constable, and had managed to get
away.
When the rogue had got good 100
yards start, DR.. Grace happened to come
mp. In moment he was after the man,
and then ensued rare chase.
While the thief was laundering through
hedges, the cricketer jumped them and
every second brought him nearer the
runaway.
The thief was surprised. He reckoned
himself q good runner, but he found that
the man who was after him was good
deal better. Nearer and nearer came the
doctor, and the man thought it was not
good enough. He doubled back into the
arms Of the policeman and was arrested
again, The policeman said that " w. G."
cleared a formidable looking iron gate as
though it had been q hurdle.-The Mil

Curious stone.

One Of the most curious stones in the
world is found in Finland, where it oc-
ours in many places. 1t is natural
barometer, and actually foretells prob
able changes in the weather. 1t is called
semakuir, and turns black shortly before
an approaching rain, while in fine
weather it is notified with spots of
white. For a long time this curious
phenomenon was mystery, but an an
alysis of the stone shows it to be a fossil
mixed with clay and containing portion
OF rock salt and inter. This fact being
known, the explanation was easy. The
salt, absorbing the moisture, turned
black when the conditions were favor
able, for rain, while the dryness OF the
atmosphere brought out the salt from
the interior OF the stone in white spots on
the surface. Globe Democrat.

They Have Strong Hopes of Carry
ing the Buckeye State.
COLUMBUS, O., March 24.-Never in
Ohio's history was the political outlook
Just before a presidential election SO
mixed and perpleXing to the party man.
ayers as now. The horoscope is de-
cidedly unsatisfactory to the leaders,
and there is a probability that the peo-
pie will get the relnS into their own
hands and drive the machine themselves
this year. The Democrats expect to
carry Ohio this year, which seems
strange when it is considered that this
is the presidential year. But this is not
astonishing when one considers the
Sherman-Foraker fight has split the Re-
publican party in Ohio sinto two fac
tions, each fighting the other with dag
gers and razors.
The legislature is within two weeks
of adjournment and not a political
measure has yet been passed. The
Sherman-F Foraker internecine war has
killed all partisan measures and it
seems very doubtful now whether the
two warning factions will be able to get
to gether. The senate passed a Sher-
man congressional redistricting bill and
the house has practically agreed upon a
Foraker one totally different.
The legislature has put Columbus in
a Democratic district, refused to allow
any Republican of this city to have
place in any of the state institutions or
to pass the bill so the Republicans can
have control of this city. The legisla-
ture refuses to pass the water-Works
bill that Cincinnati demands. Thus at
the tail-end of the session the whole
party in Ohio is torn asunder by dis
senSions. with the prospects of the
Democr ats sweeping all the cities and
towns at the coming April elections.
Secretary of State Ryan, Chairman
Hahn, of the state committee, and ex-
Attorney General Watson, with others,
have been in Washington for the last
few days III consultations with Senator
Sherman and Secretary Foster, trying
to evolve plan to unite the party and
prevent defeat in April and next fail.
AS matters now stand it looks as if the
Democrats would in November carry
Ohio for the first time III presidential
year since 1852.
Ohio's delegation to Minneapolis will
be instructed and will be for Harrison's
denomination, unless all uprising takes
place for Gov. Mckinley, when, of
course, it will be for the author of the
tariff law. But there is no strife over
the election of delegates to Minneapolis.
The strife now in the Republican ranks
in Ohio is between Sherman's and For
aker's adherents, and if the fight is not
stopped nothing can prevent the Demo-
Gratis sweeping the state this spring and
fall.
Grover Cleveland is strong in this
state with the people, and the Repub-
licans thoroughly united couldn't beat
him over 5000 or 5000, but, with the
present back-biting and discussions in
the Republican party Cleveland or any
other good Democrat could beat Harri-
son from 1900 to 10000 votes.
Again, Gov. McKinley's hesitating
course in his patronage and reorganiza-
ton OF the state institutions has disap-
pointed the rank and file Of his party,

FINANCIAL.
New York.

NEW YORK. March 24.-London was ap-
parently seller in the early dealings, but
the transactions were open to the supposition
that they were originated on this side OF the
ocean, and while the trading and profess
sional elements were liberal sellers of the
list, there was considerable demand from the
shorts, and the leading stocks gave evidence
of good support, which discouraged further
attacks quickly, and after a short time of
marked activity the market sank back into
its now normal condition of quietude.
The prominence of the induslrials was, as
usual. a signal for the cessation of active
operations in the railroad list. The indus
trials were all active and even Distillers
which has been comparatively neglected Of
late, scored material gain on q fair bust
ness The very stubborn resistance offered
by the general list to the efforts at depression,
however. had its full effect on the market
late in the day when from the shorts in the
coal stocks became very urgent, and begin
ming with Reading all moved up rapidly in
the last hour The upward movement in
none was less than per cent, but the rest of
the list failed to sympathize to any extent,
and prices rule, while remaining firm,
moved over a small range.
The opening of the market was affected
by the rumors of trouble over the Behring
sea matter, and first prices were generally
from III to 6s lower than last nights figures,
but during the day these losses were more
than made up and small fractional gains are
the rule at the close. The activity in the
coalers did not last till the final sales and
the market closed quiet but firm. generally at
small fractional gains for the day. The i'm
portant movements comprise advances as
follows: Cordage, 2ls: Distillers, 16s; Jersey
Central and Lackawanna, each 112; Chicago
Gas, 1ss.
The Post says: What was perhaps the one
remarkable feature of today's market from a
boarder point of view was its utter indiffer-
enee to the silver coinage question. II could
not be said market values hung in the bal
ance awaiting the result of today's vote. for
nobody seriously doubted what the result of
that vote could be. The working of the
market on Washington rumors early in the
week was only such scatter Drained proceed
ing as the raid yesterday based on the Behr-
ing sea rumors. There is some doubt as to
what movement Of prices will follow the
vote. and very probably some Of the recent
shifting of lying stock, notably in Lake Shore,
was of a precautionary character. But there
is notthe slightest sign of a mastering of
force foi an aggressive campaign.
