Il Was a Wise Cat.

The other day, in Beekman street,
motherly looking cat was calmly sitting
on the curb watching the antics OF her
four kittens, which were having glo
rious time rolling about and mauling one
another, says the New York Sun. The
kittens kept at their sport for some
time. Suddenly one OF them, tiring OF
further play, wandered away toward .
large paper bag that was fiuttering in the
wind on the walk. Nosing around the bag,
he presently espied All opening into which
he crawled. The attention OF his fellows
was soon directed TO the new attraction,
to which they speedily fastened, and,
entering one by one, the four kittens
quickly found themselves housed in this
unusual domicile. They made no effort
10 leave 1t, observing which the old cat,
who kept an eye all the time on the
mannuvres OF her progeny, walked to-
ward the bag, smelled, and looked within
its interior, and, seeing her kittens at
rest, she picked up the parcel with her
teeth and, walking down the street, dis
appeared in hallway with the bag and
her tots enclosed.

Hindoo witchcraO,

All Hindoos believe in witchcraft, and
in strange contrast to the old believers in
witchery, they believe that young and
pretty maidens are the chief actors in
such uncanDy mummery. IL crops are
blighted, or IL general sickness prevails
they write the names OF all the young
women OF the vicinity on separate tree
branches and then immerse the stems Of
the twigs for four hours and n half in a
solution OF holy water and aromatic
herbs. III one or more OF the twigs wither
during the specified time the young
women whose name or names are at
tached thereto are Immediately put TO
death. Thus the influence OF the witch
is counteracted, the crops saved, and
health restored.

Fruit Hill Reservoir Not Leaking So
Badley Now.

Since the repairs on the two leaks
found in the sides of Fruit Hill reservoir
last week the leakage has been very
small. though 1T is known that there is
another hole of some size which will need
filing up as soon as the water gets low
enough
At present there is no way of knowing
how much water is leaking through the
bottom, but as soon as the water is out
the bottom will be examined and IA
necessary repairs made. The water Is
now leaking SO slowly that it will be
necessary 20 draw it off in order TO ac-
complish the work this fall. The repairs
will not require an additional appropri-
alton, as the cost is very slight
Taxpayers continue to come to the
treasurer's Office aud pay their tax with
