A good cat story comes from Bombay.
In August Liverpool resident pro-

friend in India. Some days after the
arrival of the steamer in Bombay pussy

Press. Her owner had quite given her
up for lost when he received intelli-
gence from England that the cat had
made her appearance at her old Liver
pool home on October 25 as calm and
collected as though trip to India and
back was quite in the ordinary course
of her life. The facts are vouched for
by Bombay paper, and there is no rea-
son to doubt their substantial accuracy;

sroay or THE OFFICE SEEKER.

A Dlsheartsning Experisnes which II Du-
plioated Many Times Qusdrsnniaiiy.
The eager Office seeker with q small
supply Of cash and large amount OF
hope and ambition hies himself to
Washington with q valise full Of shirts,
socks and petitions, says writer In the
Knoxville Tribune. He stops at hotel
for awhile, calls on his senators and
congressman frequently, shows his in
dorsements with q natural and pardon
able pride, and narrates In q modest
way the loyal and valuable service he
has rendered his party. Not being met
with positive refusal of aid, he feels
greatly encouraged and rather likes
Washington life. He frequently In
vites his congressman to "have some
thing" and takes something himself,
but It is not an Office. Finally his funds
become low and he changes from the
hotel to modest and inexpensive
boarding house. He drops ten-cent
cigars and smokes fivers, and he only
has his shoes polished once week. His
hopes have dwindled with his cash, but
he is not ready to give up yet.
Finally, after the March winds have
given way to April showers, and April
showers to May blossoms, and the de-
sire of his heart is still unsatisfed, he
gets desperate. He borrows ten
from his congressman until he can hear
from home, and he lays in wait for old
acquaintance from his section and in
as diplomatic manner as possible
touches" them for a small loan, FL
nally hope takes its eternal fight,
anger and disgust seize upon him, and
mastering up enough to purchase a
ticket home he returns to his bailiwick
swearing that he has been deceived;
that the administration is dismal fail
ure and that henceforth and forever
the blamed old party for which he has
toiled and perspired for long weary
years will have to worry along without
any aid from him. It is from this type
Of unfortunate citizens, of both the re-
publican and democratic parties, that
the various mushroom parties quadren-
nially draw their chief strength.

Must Provide for 400, 900, 900.

That there are children now born
who will live long enough to see tho
people of the United States number
from 160,000,00 to zoo, 0,000, 200, says
Erastus Wiman In the Engineering
Magazine, is a consideration that should
have great weight in contemplating the
conditions that now are beginning to
prevail. If in the ten years just closed
the population has increased at a rate of
nearly 25 per cent. and we now start
out with 85,ooo,ooo, fifty years at the
same rate of progression will bring the
population up to very nearly 200, 900, 900.
But even If the same rate is not main
tanned, and if only 1b0, 1000, 900 is reached,
the enormous growth will have conse-
quences of character that should be
considered with special reference to en-
larged territory and widened area Of
opportunity. There is hardly anything
more certain under the sun than this
growth, and its certainty should deeply
impress every one who thinks at all
with the Importance Of making prepar-
ations for an incre ase SO momentous.

In North Louisiana and Southern Ar

uprooted. The path of the storm was

down before it.
The greatest loss of life was at Shaw

jumped. The house of Drury Sulnrol,
a prosperous colored farmer at the out
skirts of Shaw's, was demolished.
Every one of the nine inmates were
crushed to death in the ruins. Several

PARIS NEXT.
Suggestions for the site Of IN ExpesisieI
In 1900.

Suggestions for the Site Of IN Expositisn
M. Berlier, an engineer, is the author
OF the latest suggestions as to a site and
a plan for the universal exhibition of
choose the Bois de Vincennes, which
belongs altogether to the state. No
appropriation measures would then
have to be taken, as in the case of the
Auteuil racecourse and the Wallace
property at Bagatelle. Furthermore,
ground seven times larger than that
covered by the last worlds fair could
be found in the eastern wood. The
space being larger and more open, there
would be no danger of overcrowding or
OF the consequent engendering of an
epidemic.
M. Berlier also proposes, as the great
hit of the exhibition, the construc-
ton OF monumental railway termi-
mus in the center of the fair. He like
wise suggests the building of a tempo
rary town, something on the famous
New Tipperary model, at the eastern
extremity of the show, where people
employed in the exhibition, as we'll as
belated visitors, could find proper hotel
accommodation, as well as shops
wherein all the usual articles of COM
merce could be purchased at ordinary
city prices. BY means of the railways,
steamboats,, omnibusses, and especially
the tubular tram (for which NJ Berlier
himself is the contractor), the engineer
estimates that over 100,O 900 people could
be hourly conveyed to Vincennes from
the center of Paris. The cabmen, who
were SO atrociously extortionate in
1889, would, therefore, be obliged to
modify their tariffs The exhibition
committee has now enough to choose
from, what with the ten projects sent
in relative to the sites of Courveboie,
Auteuil proper, Bois de Boulogne, Vim
cennes. st. Cloud, Clichy la Muette. Au-
teuil, the Champ de Mars, the Tuille-
ries and Champs-Elysees, and Neuilly,

THE ENGLISH WALNUT.
An Erroneous Supposition Concerning
This Product.

An Erroneous supposition Concerning
This Product.
We all talk very freely about the
English walnut, and to judge from the
way this fruit is quoted very large
area of British soil must be planted to
walnuts. This, however, is not the case,.
and the name is about as gross mis-
nomer ss is the word horse chestnut,
as applied to a tree with which the horse
has nothing to do. So far from England
doing a heavy export trade in walnuts,
it does not, according to the st. Louis
Gobe- Democrat, produce half what is
required for home consumption, and the
returns show that about two hundred
and fifty thousand bushels are imported
every year from France, Germany and
central Europe. So far as America is
concerned there Is no reason why the
walnut tree, bearing the fruit which
sells SO we'll, should not be cultivated to
q liberal and profitable extent. The tree
will thrive in any fairly warm climate,
and it bears to perfection when ten years
old. After this it continues bearing
year after year with praiseworthy per-
sistence for at least two generations of
mankind, and the walnut crop from
small plantation would yield good in
come, as the fruit is far more palatable
when fresh than after long sea voy-
age. Then when the trees have grown
large enough, the lumber can be sold
to advantage, as 1t is about the best
walnut wood there Is. Altogether 1t
would appear as though there was
good deal more money in the so-called
English walnut than most people inn

ROsBING INDIAN GRAVES.
Outrages Upon Connecticut's Remainia,
Pequot Tribes.


Pequot Tribes.
The Pequot Indians in Connecticut.
last OF that famous tribe of Indians, are
aroused over a recent attempt on the
part OF white men to rob their buryinp
ground of bones and relics. The In.
dians discovered some men at work on
grave in which, it is said, descendant
of Robina Cassinament was buried.
Several half-breeds at once gave chase
to the men, who fled, says the Philadel-
phia Telegraph.
The bury1ng ground is near the mid
die OF the Pequot reservation, which is
a rough, heavy wooded tract of land
about one mile wide by two long, in
the southwest corner of North Stoning-
ton, seven miles north of Mystic Ridge.
1t is known as an Indian town. The
state long ago set it off to the exclusive
use and practical ownership of the de-
scendants of the Pequots, SO long a.
any remained.
About dozen families of mixed blood
have remained there during the last
twenty-five years. The last pure-blood
Pequot to die was Amanda Nedson.
about three years ago. The Pequot de-
scendants are for the most part door,
but they have the highest regard for
the burial place Of their race, and for
years have been tormented by relic
hunters.
For some time there appears to have
been an unusual demand for Pequot In
dian relics Many rich finds have re-
warded explorers in the Indian ceme-
teries about here. In southeastern Con-
necticut and southwestern Rhode
Island have been found large quantities
OF Indian pipes, beads, arrow heads,
lances, drills, knives and trinkets worn
by the Indians. If anyone is found
trespassing in the Pequot cemetery now
1t may be at the risk of his life, for the
Indians are said to be very angry.

The explosion of the bomb in

fact that the schools Of anarcl y are
training not one but hundreds in

while learning them their use they
are instilling into them hatred so
intense for those in power as to be
