the degree of LID. A telegram announ-
cling the fact came to the great "wel-
come meeting" to Miss Willard in New

the audience. This is year of jubilee"
for the Ohio Wesleyan University, being
it's semi-centennial. The university is
co-educational, and itsspresident is that
able and faithful advocate of woman
suffrage, DR.. Bashford. 1t was happy
coincidence (or was it premeditated?)
that one of the women graduates chose
"Frances Willard" for her graduating
thence The Western Christian Advo-
cate says: "The great honor of LII. D.
sought illustrious subjects: Frances
Willard, Governor Mckinley. and Bishops
Warren and Thoburn. The foremost
women of the times, Frances Willard,
is the first woman to receive this degree
from an institution of the high rank of

Agent Perry Decides ON Course of Action
Which Interests Householders-The Cat
Must be Provided For.

Agent Perry, of the Society for the
Protection of Animals, is much troubled
by curious state of affairs. The public
mind has become much awakened of late
on the subject of the suffering and dis
comfort of dumb animals. This is shown
by the class of complaints that are now
coming into Mr.. Perry's office. Many
Portland people, in going away for the
summer, make no provision for caring
for their house cats. The result is that
these pets, accustomed as they are to
lives of ease with the diurnal saucer of
milk, have hard lines when left to care
for themselves. They go wailing about
the neigh borhood. living by charity or
by pilfering from more fortunate felines.
OF late people who have known of
such cases have been complaining to
Agent Perry, and he has caught and
chloroformed the cats. But the COM
plants are so numerous, and the diff
culties of catching the cats and disposing
of them are SO onerous, that Mr.. Perry
has decided in future not to attempt it,
but to proceed againststhe owners of the
abandoned animals. Anyone who leaves
the household cat unprovided for is
liable to be broug hit into the municipal
court and be fined not less than five dol
lars nor more than twenty dollars.
