A CAT FIGHTS WITH FISH.
Pussy Likes the Sport and Is Clever
and Sure Catcher.

anu SURF SaUcher'
Cats, as a rule, don't like water, but
an italian fisherman named Michael has
a large Maltese named Joe that loves
water as much as other cats love a rug
in front of CRATE fire. Michael has
one Of those lattern-rigged boats, and
goes fishing in the usual way, except
that he takes Joe along. He likes to
have Joe, and Joe likes to go. While
the boat is on the way to the fishing
grounds Joe lies still and don't mind
how wet he gets or how much che lit
tie craft pitches about. But when the
seine, with its load Of wriggling fish, Is
hauled in, Joes fun commences. He Is
most anxious to get hold Of the largest,
and will often jump into the net before
1t Is landed. When a big rock cod Is
thrown on to the deck the cat Is in its
glory. He will run around and attempt
to shake 1t as he would a mouse. The
fish spreads out its fins and opens its
mouth, and Joe gives 1t twist by the
tail that causes 1t to turn dozen SOM
ersaults. Then the pair will roll over
and over together, and the fishermen
nearly kill themselves laughing at the
sight. The cat gets wet and covered
with scales, and possibly gets pricked
several times with the spines Of the
fish, but 1t seems to thoroughly enjoy
the sport. When the fish Is almost dead
from being out Of the water Joe seems
to think it is all his doings, and that he
has really killed 1t in a pitched battle.
He then waits for another fish fresh
from the deep, and repeats the perform
ance. The cat seems to have no other
idea in playing with the fish except
sport, for 1t never attempts to eat the
larger ones, but lives almost entirely
on the small fish that are used for bait.
No other fisherman on the bay IS
known to own cat, and Michael is as
proud of Joe as If he were the only cat
in the world.

a COOL AND CLEVER GIRL.
Who I'm n Ladylike Way Managed to
MOrtifY Two Men.


Mortify Two Men.
A girl know told me little story
the other day, says writer. She Is
quite an ordinary girl, well-behaved
enough II people let her alone, and
making no claim to equality with any
one except under extreme aggravation.
She is a busy person and therefore,
when going home to dinner, only
reached the station in time for the ex-
act train which would insure punctual-
ity. 1t was late and 1t was crowded.
To waste time finding seat would be
to be left behind. She got into the
carriage which stopped opposite her,
and, finding it full, stood quietly by the
door.
Two men on opposite sides of the car
riage looked at her in wrath and the
one said (you can imagine the air OF
self-praise): 81 never give up my seat
to lady"
Neither do l." said the other. cts
unreasonable that they should expect
it."
They started sort of duet on the
subject, enlarging by turns and in uni
son on their firmness in keeping their
seats, the selfishness of women in get
ting into full carriages-they had paid
for their seats, why should they give
them up-and much more to the same
effect, all directed with black looks at
my friend by the door.
Che hard ,pcopcarpad Tho oniu.
ions Of the speakers did not interest
her at all; there was no reason why she
should trouble to answer them. All she
wanted was to be home in time for din
ner. When some one in the carriage
alighted at station she took the seat
vacated and would have thought no
more Of the matter had not the two men
still continued to talk at her with
wearisome iteration. After a few more
stations were passed another passen-
ger got out, and woman, getting in,
asked my friend a quite unnecessary
question. The two men looked up;
the5 could not help being interested in
angling the woman they had been
talking at so long might say.
She smiled sadly and shook her head.
The question was repeated OF course,
three or four people in the carriage
answered it at once, but my friend
shook her head more sadly still and
pointed to her ears.
An, Ssaf! Poor thing" said the
questioner.
And the blank absurd faces of those
two men were sight to see. My
friend said their humiliation would
have mad, her repent her little fraud
had it not been for the hearty and
wholesome delight it afforded the rest
of the passengers. The shout of laugh
ter that rose at the expense of those
two men was almost enough to deafen
any one in sober earnest.

Women "a school Teachers.

Here are brave words for the School
marm," but the special application is
rather to England than the United
States: "Of old a gentlewoman taught
as a last resource-when starvation
stared her in the face. Her duty was to
marry for livelihood. Any situation in
which she worked for daily bread was
considered in the light of a degrada-
tion.' The words are Mary Wollestone-
crafts, and she knew; she began life as
a governess. Now teaching for woman
is an honorable profession, as 1t should
be- She teaches because she has quail
fed herself to be a teacher even as q
barrister has equipped himself for the
law, doctor for medicine. Her work
is done, not because a husband Is not
forthcoming, but because the world
needs It,"

Talking Down to One, Auditor.

Julian Ralph, when he went to China,
prepared himself very carefully in pig
con English, which he had been told he
would find useful, and on discovering
a Chinaman in his bedroom at hotel
in Shanghai remarked Hello! What
ting? What fashion man you belong?
What side you comet" To which the
Chinaman replied: This is Mr.. Ralph,
I presume. We have mutual friends
who suggested my calling on you. oh,
that's all Fight. I spent eight years at
school in Norwich, Connecticut" "Ah"
said Mr.. Ralph, partially recovering his
presence of mind, "vely we'll, vely

Of the disbursements relating to the
creation of a new Office, the mainte-
nance of the prison. prisoner and jailer.
The outlay on the last was heavy
drain on the royal purse.
His face heightened visibly; and when
he considered 1t might last forever for
the condemned man was still young), he
Insisted on his minister OF Justice taxi
ing measures to suppress this expense.
The minister held consultation with
the president of the tribunal, and the
two agreed that the Office of jailer
might be abolished. The prisoner, re-
CURED to guard himself all alone, would
not fail to escape, and this would solve
the question to the satisfaction of all.
The jailer was, thereupon, sent back
to his family, and one of the under
cooks Of the palace was simply required
to carry, morning and evening, food to
the prisoner. But that gentleman made
no attempt to recover his liberty.
One day, indeed, when they had failed
to provide him with nourishment, he
coolly presented himself to claim 1t;
and henceforth 1t was his custom, in
order to save the cook a journey, to
come at meal hours and eat with the
servants of the palace, with whom he
had become friendly.
After breakfast he would take a stroll
as far as Monte Carlo. Occasionally
he would enter the casino and risk a
few francs at play. When he won he
would treat himself to a good dinner
at one Of the leading hotels and then
he would return to his prison and care
fully lock the door from the inside.
He never slept out single night.
The situation was becoming difficult;
not for the condemned man, but for his
judges.
Once more the court assembled, and II
was decided that they should invite the
criminal to depart from the States Of
Monaco.
On this decision being communicated
to him, he merely replied:
II perceive you are joking. Come
now; why should I go away-I, indeed?
I have no means Of living. I have no
longer any family. What do you wish
me to do? I was condemned to death.
You didn't execute me. I said nothing.
Then was condemned to imprison-
ment for life and handed over to the
jailer. You deprived me of my jailer.
Still said nothing.
Now you ask me to get out of the
country. No, thank you! I am pris-
oner your prisoner, judged and con-
demned by you. L am carrying out my
punishment faithfully. Here I stop"
The Supreme court was dumfounded.
The prince flew into a terrible rage, and
ordered them to act.
They applied themselves diligently to
celebrating.
The outcome was it was decided they
should offer the prisoner a pension Of
600 francs year to live in another coun-
try.
He accepted.
He has bought a little enclosed plot
of land within five minutes walk Of the
realm Of his former sovereign, he lives
happily on his estate, cultivating few
vegetables and holding potentates In
contempt.

Looking Forward.

The Japanese government is liberal
and progressive, and what private cor
porations will not undertake it does
While it owns the telegraph lines and
many of the railroads, ali of which are
profitable, private corporations own
half of the railroads, the telephones,
electric light plants and street rail-
roads. Railroads and street car lines
pay very handsomely. They are ope-
rated cheaply, and the average Japa-
nese is so daft upon the subject of rid
Ing that he will spend his last cent to
travel to a distant town and walk
back. The beds Of the railroads are
sodded and beautified. One railroad has
200, 900 cherry trees planted along the
sides. There are something like 10000
public schools In japan. The buildings
are comfortable and education IL COM
pulsory.
