CAT STOPS A MONKEY FIGHT

Siminns Hear tho Feline Spit aud Lose All
Conbativencss.
n battle royal between monkeys took
place one afternoon recently, says the
New York Journal, in the window of n
downtown animal importer, to the
great delight OF all who could crowd
near enough to the scene to see the
conflict.
Six young monkeys were playing in a
cage behind n big plate-glass window.
Suddenly the monkeys took it into
their heads to scrap. They spranp Mt
each other in the widest way and hair
few at n lively rate,
There was no apparent reason why
the creatures should have gone Mt each
other, but go ut each other they did. A
Donnybrook fair was not in It compared
with the way these monkeys plugged
and chewed each other. Each one
seemed to be for himself and against
NIL the others.
The crowd of men and boys on the
sidewalk yelled with excitement for
several minutes.
Finally II boy who is employed ut n
neighporing restaurant appeared with
n big gray ind black cat in his arms.
Let me get near the window" he
cried, ''and III bet my cat will scare
the life out of the whole lot of them
monkeys"
The crowd let the boy through. The
lad held his Thomas cat up to the glass.
md instantly Mr.. Cat Strengthened out
his whiskcrs and commenced splitting.
That was enough.
The gang of monkey fighters heard
the splitting and quit. Their fury wa
Quoted in a iiffy, and they jumped to
the farthest corner of the cage with n
unanimity that was as pronounced as
their mutual a9ressivcness had been.

CONVENT.
The Forty-Second Annual Com
mehcement A Grand
Success.
Written for THE HERALD.


Last evening the Sisters Of
the fncarnate Word Academy
of this city held their AID An
hual Commencement the well
ventilated spacious convent
hall. It was crowded to excess
All, no matter of what denomi-
nation, are most welcome to the
grand performance given by the
children of this Academy I'M
der the careful training of the
nuns. The hall was tastefully
decorated with greens and a
profusion of roses, while the
stage was draped with lace cur
tains, Topped here and there
with flowers, so that the whole
presented a light and refresh
ing effect. The crowded stage
beamed with happy faces, all
eager to take part in the enter
tainment.
"Tancred," a fine piano trio,
opened the program. 1t was
very we'll executed by Misses
M. Forsyth, NJ. Browne and L..
Justiniani. Miss NJ. Seaman,
read the opening address, Civ
ing all a most hearty welcome.
When she had finished every
one felt quite at home, and that
he was really welcome to the
commencement she specially
addressed Rev. Father Maurel,
Superior, owing to his late re-
turn from Eagle Pass, and all
his old parishioners felt that
the greeting was most sincere
and to the point. Rev. Father
Parisot was likewise warmly
greeted, not only on account of
his return to his old flock, but
also in consequence of his I'M
expected recovery from his
recent illness. 1t is unnecessa-
sary to say that all present
echoed the young lady's vel
come to the Rev. Pastors.
The chorus 1--WE Come from
Fairy Bowers was well rem
dered, Miss S. Kowalski has a
very fair soprano voice and
sang with feeling. Miss P.
Champion, did well in the con-
tralto. In the ''Tramway Gal
1op" Misses A. Garete and NJ.
Ramirez kept very nice time
and played tastefully. "Ber-
nardo del Carpio'' was well re-
cited by Miss NJ. Forsyth. This
young lady promises well as an
elocutionist. "La Batalla de
Lepanto," recitation in Spanish
by Miss NJ. Strother, was taste
fully rendered. In the "ecita
ton Something Great" Miss
M. Browne seemed to feel from
her heart all that she uttered
and greatly pleased the au-
dience. The poem alexander
the Great was nicely said by
Miss NJ. Lacaze' With a little
more courage she will do splen-
didly. Beautiful Isle :of the
Sea- was well sung by Misses
r. Clearwater, and S. Kowalski
and P. Champion. "a Roman
Legend" was most tastefully
recited by Miss S. Kowalski,
and her gestures were very
good indeed. This was follow
ed by a Spanish recitation en-
titled "Mexico." It was deliv-
