A Sporting Cat.

This story of clever cat comes from
England. Dame Evans. we are told,
dwelt in little farm house on the bank
of the River Balm. She owned some
fowls, some pigeons, and big, burly,
lazy, handsome cat. Now, this cat did
not care for mice or rats; she was very
fond of pheasants and partridges. and
after time she developed an appetite
for salmon and trout. With the great
est ease she learned to catch the young
salmon and trout. and ate them. This
was poaching, and there was great indig-
nation on the part of the fishermen over
this cats proclivities; but the Squire,
who owned this part of the stream on
which Dame Evans lived. would not al.
low the Danes favorite to be killed.
One day, when the Squire was out fish
ing. and had had no luck, he stopped at
the Danes cottage to have drink of
milk. leaving his fishing-rod with it's
hook and steel minnows outside the door
Suddenly there was the most awful howl
such as had never been heard before by
the Squire or his man or Dame Evans.
All rushed outside, and there Mrs. Cat
was firmly caught in the minnows, and
could not get free until the Squire cut
her free with his knife. The Squire's

The Story of the Gravels.

Some ten thousand or more years ago
the conditions which had brought about
the great ice age were beginning to
change: the elevated land began to sink,
and a higher temperature slowly fol-
lowed. The long winter was gradually
drawing to a close, and the great spring

and mud were borne along by these ra-

All rivers which had glacial sources
were greatly influenced by the final

rocks and gravels which line their banks
show how we'll they have kept the re-
cord.
In the Delaware Valley brick clay and
gravel are laid out in beautiful terraces
especially at Stroudburg and the Water
Gap; here the waters rose some two
hundred feet; and an artificial dam is
supposed to have formed the river into
broad lake. The Indians. it is said have
a curious legend about this flood; they
tell us that the "Minsies" were the first

This went on until the third of last
July, when Howey engaged a horse
from Wilson to drive to Jessup. At the
latter place he began drinking, and
when he got sufficiently drunk to be-
come foolish he gathered a crowd
around and for their ediiication pro-
ceeded to show how we'll he had trained
Wilson's horse since he went to work
on the latter's farm. The animal re-
sented his familiarity and actually
kicked Howey, breaking his arm.
Wilson discharged him and took the
liberty of approprla ting the crop of a
small tract of land that Howey was
cultivating for his own use. That is the
cause of the suit 1t was tried before
and taken from the jury on a techni-
cality. Later new trial was granted.
Wilson was on the stand in his own de-
fense and made an amusing witness.
