Sunday morning churchgoers on Reid

per Reid avenue. Iinpelled by curiosity
to see what was going on those who ap-
preached the window witnessed within
q scene of devastation. One large win
dow Of the store was filled with lamps,
vases and crockery of every description,
which are given away to purchasers of
tea and other articles in the store. In
this. window the pedestrians saw small
kitten. Hc had been locked in the store
over night, and had made his way into
the window filled with crockery. 1t was
terrible to behold the damage which had
been done there. The boys outside had
succeeded in making the kitten frolic
around inside, and at each turn he made
some article of crockery would fall with
a crash.
Handsome lamps, vases, pitchers and
numerous articles were broken to pieces
by the antics of the frolicsome kitten,
who seemed to be chuckling to himself
at the damage he had done. When,
finally, about three-quarters Of the
crockery in the window had been utter
ly destroyed, policeman strayed along,
and the crowd of boys were dispersed
The kitten then settled down in the
midst of mass of broken crockery and
was soon asleep. Brooklyn Standard
