He Apologi2ed.

A western judge was listening to an
attorney who had mean habit OF inter
polating remarks into the proceedings Of
the court. What he said was scarcely
ever heard by any one, as he mumbled
rather than spoke and would never re-
peat remark, One day he said some
thing which nobody heard except the
judge, who at once became exceedingly
angry. Turning to the court bailiff, he
thundered out, "Adjourn this court"
Then, as soon as the bailiff had done his
duty, the judge stepped from the bench,
beckoned to the lawyer to follow him
and entered the clerks office. The law
yer went along, So did two Or three
other people.
As soon as the judge got fairly into
the room, he seized a lawbook, and turn
ing upon the lawyer he fairly screamed:
Il was on the bench awhile ago, and you
insulted me. | was judge then. lam
man now, and the man will have an
apology for the judge, or he will take it
out Of your hide. You might make an
apology to the judge, but you would
not mean it. Now, however, the case is
more serious, and unless you give mo
what | ask | will smash your head"
The lawyer madea most abject apology,
which the judge accepted, and then the
party went back to the courtroom and
resumed business, San Francisco Argo-

AoMlNe POWERS Or THE CAT.


They Are Mysterious and Unfathomhblo
Even to Modern Science.
That cat can come home in the face
Of almost incredible difficulties is per-
fectIy certain. Thus, to take q fact as
an instance, o cat was carried from o
town on the northeast coast Of Fife to o
house near Perth. II went in basket
by train to Leuchars, where 1t changed
for Dundee, and at Dundee changed for
Perth. Next day, about Z in the morn
ing, this cat was observed to run down
the avenue Of its new home with q pur-
poseful air. On the third day 1t ap-
peared at its old home,
Now, how did that cat achieve its
journey Did it take q bee line across
country, and, il SO, how did it know its
direction? Or did it run to Dundee, cross
Tay bridge (the railway bridge and 50
along the line to Leuchars, negotiating
the Eden at Guard bridge? We can
hardly suppose that it swan the Tay.
Or did it go round by the head Of Loch
Tay--a long rough journey by the Kill
lin, where o cat might meet many dam
gers and temptationsH The perils Of
cat on the road are innumerable. Every
collie dog chases it, every gamekeeper
has gun for it, every boy is ready with
stone. Indeed we never see cat on
its travels. No doubt it runs by night.
There is the hypothesis that the cat came
by train, changing ut Dundee, and achiev-
ing the difficult maneuyer at Leuchars,
wherein many men have failed, going
back to Dundee or getting to Cupar,
though not one Of them was like him
'that will to Cupar." This method Of
transit, which. needs agile acuteness Of
reason in any man, may not be beyond
the powers and intelligence of cat.
But all conceivable ways, from the
bee line across country and over, rivers
to the course round Loch Tay, are full
of perplexities. That the cat simbiy
rode on broomstick behind witchis
an hypothesis which brings us into un-
friendly contact with modern ideas Of
progress. Somehow the thing was done,
and done in 48 hours, A dog spoken of
by Mr.. Romanes ran from Vienna to
Mentonne, but died Of fatigue. The cat
was as well and sound as usual. We
may speak of instincta and inherited apti-
tude, but to find its old home is of no
use to cat in the struggle for existence.
Cats, much more than dogs, are indie
pendent Of a home. They can take to
the heather, the forest or the back green.
Thus the cats which fortuitously deyel-
oped the power Of "homing" would be
no better off than other cats and not
more fitted to survive and bequeath their
accomplishment to their progeny.
In face Of these facts our boosted
science is dumb, We know little about
cats, but cats know great deal about
us. Faculties Of this kind made the cat

protector might come and rescue him by

why Oranges Aro Able TO Resist Front to

The late Professor Newberry Of Co

The effect Of evaporation has much to do
with 1t, as this itself reduces the tempera-

He Could Not Bear the Drops.

II saw an amusing experiment." said
Henry Waller of Omaha. "Some one
stated that no man could stand a quart
of water dropped on to his hand, drop
by drop, from height of two or three
feet. A bystander bet $40 to 81 that he
could, and the wager was accepted. In
less than minute there was blister on
the mans hand and in less than three
minutes his face gave evidence of intense
suffering, Before pint had been drop
ped he gave up exhausted and described
the sensation as the most terrible one he
had ever experienced. The man who
pocketed the $20soffered to give odds of
10 to that no one could stand pint of
water dropped on his head drop by drop.
When he could find no takers, he volun-
teered the statement that no one could
have gone through the ordeal and retain
his reason, q statement nobody present
seemed qualified or anxious to contra
diet."-St. Louis Globe-Democrat
