AN OFFENDED OSTRICH.
Innocent Kitten BIistook His Legs

Phila delphla Press

The ostrich at the Geological Garden
stood in the long yard adjoining its cage
in the deer-house yesterday. 1t gazed
contemplatively through the bars OF the
fence at the world beyond and shivered
every once In a while as the cool breezes
swept down upon 1t. 1t was thinking Of
the differences In climates and wondering
whether II It buried one OF its eggs as
II used to do in the long grass during
such weather the cool wave would hatch
out an ice-cream churn.
While 1t was revolving the question In
its mind a playful kitten came through
the fence into the yard. 1t was pretty

ostrich's back
The huge bird did not know what to
make Of II at first, and went canterins
around the yard as though the plague
were after IT, Round and round 1t went,
until, red In the face, 1t came to sud
den stop. The kitten never moved. II
had taken firm hold OF the ostrich and
did not propose to be shaken.
IT stood the earthquake this morning"
said the kitten, Il guess l can stand
this"
Finding that the strange beast refused
10 be thus summary disposed OF. the os-
trich became less scared and more angry.
II curled its neck and twisted Its head so
as to get o fair look at the kitten. The
kitten never WINGED. 1t began to think
II had bsrked UP the wrong tree. but II
was determined TO see the matter out
The ostrich aimed blow at the unde-
sirable rider with its beak. but II lodged.
n tried II again. but the result was the
same. Again and again the agile head
and long neck rained sledge-hammer
blows at the tricky little kitten. II es-
capped them all. though some were too
near for comfort
Finally the kitten got scared. II ran
out on the ostrich's neck to get out Of
the way. Then II smiled. The ostrich
eou,dn't hit Il there. It's smile aid not

This was clearly shown at the time Car
lyle Harris was awaiting his death day
in Sing Sing prison for poisoning his
wife. On the night when Paliister anu
Roehl made their famous escape from
the death-house they opened the cells
of the other two men. but they refused
to give Harris q chance for liberty. In
fact II was said afterwards that Pal
lister wanted TO kill Harris before ieav-
ing. but the others persuaded him not
10 DO so. as II would take too much
time These four nurderers detested
Harris. and let no small opportunity pass
TO make his last DAYS more niseraole.
He was a polsoner, and hence a monster
to his fellow-murderers.
