DENVER, July 1.-Senator Henry M.
Teller could have aroused the West to
no greater demonstrations of approval
had he been a sovereign of am empire
or a President of a republic. All last
night his progress west from Omaha

marked by noisy demonstrations at
every stopping point in Nebraska
Bands met him with energetic martial
and patriotic airs, crowds gathered and
demanded a speech, and at many places
the Senator was fairly dragged from the

could be seen as he thanked the people

The Musical Cat.

My blue Persian cat is q gentle, senti-
mental creature, slightly inclined to
melancholy and, strangely, even trouble
somely, affectionate to one or two select
friends. She had been accustomed from
the time first had her-last summer
to be continually with me, generally On
my lap or shoulder. When the winter
evenings began to draw ON, l took to
playing the piano, which had not done
during the summer. The cat could not
understand why, when this was going
on, she was not allowed to take up her
usual position. In order, I suppose, to
show her disapproval of my occupation,
she would continually climb up either
ON to me or the piano and pat my hands
with her paws. and pull them off the
keys-very gently and without scratch
ing at all. This became such nuisance
that l could not play unless put her
out of the room, but she would sit out
side and howl, and when any one OPEN
ed the door she would rush in and begin
da capo. At last thought Of q way Of
treating her-viz, like a rational being.

Architecture,

The American student to whom the
mysteries Of architecture are made clear
p Paris or New York foyeets what WIS
the former sanctity Of his art Mr.. Her
bert Spencer shows conclusively that tho
professional architect Of thousands Of
years ago was the priest. Early a-chi-
lecture sprang from ancestral worship,
and ancestral worship was the oldest Of
all beliefs. The graves of the departed
had first to be preserved. The embellish-
ment came afterward; thence the call
ing Of the architect became sacred. The
relic had to be preserved within an
elaborate shrine. At first it might have
been that the erection of a tomb called
forth certain amount Of skill, and soon
the temple followed the tomb. Mentu-
holtp's hieroglyphic inscription that
"the chief architect was promoted and
became a priest" shows the merging of
the two callings..
Il am a great architect" says King
Bekenkhonsu, land was holy father
of Anon for 12 years" Sometimes the
architect in Egypt was also a general.
Herbert Spencer shows how any special
skill among a primitive people was al
ways supposed by them to be derived
from some supernatural power. There
must have been amazement when the
first arch was sprung. Coming down
nearer to our own time, even to the
tenth century, we know that abbots and
priests were the architects. There is evil
dence that in Raphael's age Pope Leo
appointed an aged friar as an assistant
in the building of ST. Peters. 1t was
very much nearer to our day when the
clerical architect gave up his task, leav-
ing the constructive part to the master
builder, and from the master builder
came the modern architect.
