LoNG-HAIRED FELINEs FAVORED
They Get All the Attention at the New u DIRK
Cat Show.

New York, March 9.-Aithough the
high winds and cold weather have been
a great drawback for the cat show in
the Madison Square Garden. the atten-
dance thus far has been fair, and with
better weather it is expected that the
number of special tors will be much larg-
er. The exhibition is a good one and in
some instances instructive. Another
year, after the newly organized Cat
club has done its work, the show may
be better. The varieties Of cats shown
is large, even though the number of
animals is small. There is a well-re-
cognized standard for judging, and
most Of the women whose pets are
Gagged, have welI-founded ideas of il, al
though some have their pets which are
by no means up to. the standard. and
find fault with the judges because their
exhibits are passed by without award.
The average spectator cannot be
forced to see much beauty in the short
haired cats, although some are fully as
well bred as those with long hair, prob
ably owing to familiarity with that kind
of animal. The cages of the long-haired
specimens attract much attention, and
as most of them will stand any amount
of petting. there are many amusing
scenes and a good deal of what is known
as baby talk" Few men are to be
found at the show. as they do not take
much interest in cats, but those who do
go are interested at once.
Among the long-haired cats which at
tract attention are those belonging TO
Mrs. f. y. Barker, led by the Persian,
+! Mahdi, beautiful jet-black animal.
Then there are the brown Persian, King
Humbert. a well-known winner; anoth-
er brown Persian, SardonyX. the black
and white Paddles. the black female
Egypt. and two fine grey Persian

The cats have decorated the cages. and
one cage is a mass of flowers; others are
trimmed with ribbons, and many of the
animals have ribbons around their
necks. One in particular is gorgeous
with quintuple string of pearls around
his neck.
The cats are not in the best of condi-
ton. as the show is a little too late in
the season. and some have begun 10
shed their fur, the loss of the ruff be-
ing noticeable in many cases. The
judges are old hands and Will not re-
gard condition as much : they would
under other circumstances. There are
several Persians which have not got the
silky hair required for a firS,-claSs ami
nal, and some of the Angoras are not
as woolly as they should be. 4 few OF
the white cats have the turquoise eyes
which are so desirable, while others
have that green cast which is common
but is a fatal fault in the ring. although
colored Persians may have green eyes

they have the applicant sign statement
saying that the free coinage of silver would
hurt him in his business as wage Garner.
l have wondered why cur great financial
mdSnates did not put in their appl1ca tons
statement similar to that. Why don't the
heads Of these syndicates who have been
bleeding the government make applica ton

The crowd surGed to and fro, and in front
OF the stand a dozen policemen fought 1t
from the platform. There were cheers for
stand the students repeatedly broke forth
with their yell. and for twenty-five minutes
it was impossible for Mr. Bryan to make
himself heard.
Then 5. A. CrandaE Of Norwich proceed
ed to apologize for the disturbance, saying:

gress, in business and in every walk of

The meeting then ended. Mr.. Bryan
coughed violently as he was driven to the
New Haven House, and was apparently ex-
hausted after his effort.
In speaking of his treatment at New
Haven Mr.. Bryan afterward said that he
did not attribute it to the sober-minded
citizens of New Haven, but to the younger
members of Yale College. He said he
thought the boys were out on a lark, and
did not represent the sentiment of the citi-
zens or of the students of the university.

ing in a ditch in an unconscious condition
by two neighbors. Harry Seth and James
Anderson She vas removed to the home
of her brother. near by. and medical assist
arce procured. When che had recovered
consciousness, she told the following story.
She was walking from Elkton to her
brothers. and when about mile and a
half from the town. on part of the road
de nSely wooded on either side. a negro
stepped from the bushes and. confronting
her. warned her to make no outcry, and at
tempted to take hold of her. She punched
at him with her umbrella, and the next
moment received g. stunning blow in the
face which rendered her unconscious.
Mrs. Pounds presents pitiable appear
ance. Her face is cut and swollen. The
blow broke her eyeglasses. and her right
eye is badly cut and filled with broken
glass. The physician believes that the
sight has been destroyed.
