TO PRowL, MY CAT.


You are life's true philosopher,
An epicure of air and sun,
An egoist in sable fur,
To whom all moralists are one.
You hold your race traditions fast.
While others toll you simply live,
And, based upon stable past,
Remain sound conservativel
You see the beauty Of the world
Through eyes Of unalloyed content
And, in my study chair upcurled,
Move me to pensive wonderment'
wish knew your trick of thought,
The perfect balance of your ways
They seem an inspiration caught
From other laws in older days.
Your padded footsteps prowl my room
Half In delight and half disdain.
You like this air of studious gloom
When streets without are cold with
rain.
Some day, alasi you'll come to die,
And shall lose constant friend.
You'll take your last look at the sky
And be a puzzle TO the end.

A Khnas. .-ith 4 Eaor Msnorr.

The testimony before the master In the
Northern Pacific investigation yesterday was
for the most part technical in its character.
Mr. W. d. Searls. Vice-President OF the Farms
ers' Loan and Trust Company. trustee Of the
Northern Pacific consolidated mortgage was
the first witness examined. Mr.. Searls identi-
fed various documents that had reference to
the consolidation OF the companies now
merged into the Chicago and Northern Pacific
Railroad Company.
Mr.. Petit drew the attention Of the witness
to the fact that the stock certificates OF the
Rocky Fork and Cook City Railroad stated the
capital stock Of the company at $4,000.
although the capital stock 10 In fact 81. 600 900.
Mr.. Searls was unable TO explain the apparent
discrepancy. The explanation given By gem
tleman familiar with the affairs OF the two
com anies 10 that the books OF the company
will show that the increase In the capital
stock was legally authorized. but that as .
matter Of convenience the old stock certificates
were used. II was agreed between counsel
that copies OF the minutes Of certain meetings
OF the Northern Pacific Directors. aud the doc
uments spread thereupon should be received

Spofford declined to deliver 1t to him.
Mr.. Edes was Assistant Secretary OF the Ore
gon and Trauecontinental company. and IL
Secretary and Treasurer Of the North Amert-
can company, Its successor. An atom ut to get
him to say whore the books OF the former COM
pany are was similarly unsuccessful. He said
that he did not know In whose custody they
were. lie explained that they were piled on
the floor OF the North American company's
offices because there was not room for them
what was done with them after the Offices were
moved in 1891.
The examination OF Mr. Edes had not been
conc uded when the master adjourned the
hearing for the day.
