PUSSY Swan TO Her Kittens,

Albert Stetson, who has been superin'
tending the unloading of the WashteDaw,
is telling cat stories along tie water
front. On the steamer Saturn there was
for a long time a black cat that was the
pet of the seamen. When the Saturn was
last in port she went every day to the
dock, where she had installed litter OF
kittens among the freight. The Saturn
left the dock O few days ago on the way
to Liverpool, the mother on board. The
kittens were on the wharf. The steamer
got about two hundred yards away from
the pier, when the mother realized that
parting was taking place, and that her
kittens would be left to starve if she did
not do something. So she sprang into the
cold waters and swan back 10 the wharf.
She climbed up a pile, dripping wet, and
dashed for her babies. The freight clerks
took her and her Kittens to the Washtenaw,
where they have quarters in the captains
