WAS A CHICAGO CAT.

When refrigerator car numbered 274O,
arrived here from Chicago on Sun
day it brought passenger who was not
noted on the manifest and who I'M
doubtedly took that long ride from the
Windy City involuntarily. When the
custom house officer whose duty it Is to
examine the seals of all cars, came to
number 2740, which was stated on the
manifest to be loaded with lard he broke
the seal and the laborers pushed the door
of the car back and started to enter it.
The longshoremen sprang back with a cry
of fear as big tom cat born and bred in
Chicago leaped into his face from the
dim recesses of tho car piled high with
tubs of lard and dashed madIy out into
the freight shed. The poor cat who must
have been imprisoned in this car for a
week or so without food or water was SO
weak that it was an easy thing to capture
her, and having been fed from dinner pals
of the custom house officers the Windy
City cat suddenly disappeared and the
custom house officers are still looking for
the feline. So if any of the PRESS read-
ers found half famished, strange tom
cat about their back doors yesterday
morning, a cat with the proverbial large
sized feet of Chicago, with acknowledged
proclivities for pork, politics and Poles.
that cat is wanted at the custom house.
