ADOPTION OF THE CAT,
When 1t Was Introduced to Human
Society Mystery.

1t is impossible to trace the origin of the
domestic cat with certainty to any existing
species or variety of wildcat Indeed, the
time at which the cat was first domesticat-
ed and introduced to human society is SIM
ply a matter of conjecture Professor
Shaler espresso the opinion that the do
mestication of the cat must have been
much later than that of the dog, Mhiie
naturalists give reasons Tor believing to
the contrary.
Some people agree with Professor Shaler,
and for this reason: That dogs were prob
ably first domesticated in order to issist in
hunting, and therefore, probably in what
is called the hunting age Of human society,
whereas the cat has nowhere been genera lily
used as a hunting animal. The dots is es-
sentially gregarious; he loves to hunt in
packs, and when introduced to a human
family he regards the family as his PACK
and hunts accordingly, SO that he IS easily
made Serviceable ny the human hunt r.
The cat, on the contrary, is unsocial, it
lives alone and hunts alone. that it could
not be expected to De easily trained to
hunt either with men or for men. In fact,
the only member of the cat family that Is
known to have been trained to hunt is the
cheetah, though an ancient Egyptian paint
ing which may be in the British Mu-
scum represents cat which is apparently
assisting hunter to catch birds.
There Is another reason for thinking that
the cat must have been adopted by man
after the hnuting see, namely, the cats
wonderful attachment to localities. Ami
mails like the wolf, with which the dog is
most closely allied, FOLLOW their prey over
vast tracts of country, and seem to be en-
tirely destitute Of local attachment. The
wildcat, on the contrary, settles down In a
particular spot and waits for it's prey to
come. When removed from its accustomed
habitat it seems to lost its skill and there
fore would be useless to men in q hunting
age, because in that age men seldom mad
fixed habtations but roarned abroad wher-
ever game was to be found. OF course,
much of this Is conjecture. Whether the
cat or dog was first adopted by ran can
not now be certainly known, but the cat
was we'll known as 4 domestic animal at
an early period Of human history.-Bcston

WILL BUILD MINIS
Americans VIII Instruct Natives in
the Art Of Coming Money.

Americans Will Instruct Natives in
the Art of Coming Money.
Two young Yankees from Bridgeton, N.
j., are Speeding westward now, bound for
the East. This may SEEN a paradox, but
it is true. nevertheless The studious look
ing young fellows have been leading the
cotillons Of fashionable Bridgeton are being
transported tOthe Pacific coast, where they
will embark for the Celestial empire In
the very heart Of the f1owery kingdom they
are to establish minis for the august per-
son who claims descent from the sun and
moon and several other heavenly bodies.
Nine hundred miles inland will they go be-
fore their work Is finished.
The two young travellers who are to do
this important work are Henry A. jan
vier and Sydney E. Bowen. Both are
we'll known in Bridgeton, and have been
regarded as society leaders.
Some time ago Brdgeton manufac-
turing firm received from the Chinese
government an order for three minting
plants. They were designed by Mr.. jan
vier. and are intended for the purpose of
turning out silver and copper coin, which
will jingle in the loose pockets of pigtailed
MOngolians.
The machinery was shipped some time
ago. There three separate outfits,
comprising presse, dies, mllers, tumblers,
rolling mills, boilers and shafting. They
will arrive in China about the some time
the two travellers do.
Janvier and Bowen left Bridgeton three
days ago They Will sail from San Fran
cisco for Yokohama Jan. 6. They hope
to diSembark at the Janapese port Jan. %.
Then they will go to Shanghai and board
a small steamer, in which they will travel
for 600 miles up the YangS-tse- Kiang.
They must go on for 800 miles more through
a country practically unknown to CaucaS-
slams. This trip they will make in house
boat. When they are at the end of it they
will find themselves in the heart Of
SZchuen.
This province has long suffered for the
lack Of minted money. Because of the
numerous robber bands that infest the
country, the government has found it i'm
possible to send miflted coin into Szchuen
in sums large enough to meet the demand.
For that reason it is proposed to establish
mints on the spot.
The two Americans will travel for four
teen days in the house boat This part of
the journey would be extremely dangerous
for white men, and strong guard Of i'm
peral troops will accompany the two ad-
Venturers. And injury received by either
American will mean decapitation of their
guards by the emporer's orders.
Janvier and Bowen will establish two
plants in Szchuen. They will remain there
four months instructing the native oper-
ators. Then they will go to Ching Tu
in the HoOpee province and establish a
copper mint. This will fulfill their mission
and they will start for home. They expect
to be in Bridgeport again a year hence

ably he has been following me about ever
since landed in England. hoping to dis
cover 1t. The Chinese can climb like cats,
and I expect he got on to the roof Of the
conservatory, determining to investigate
the bedrooms OF the establishment. as he
had already inspected the lower premises,
and when Hilda brought the light into the
boudoir she showed him what he had been
looking for all this time. You may take
my word for it. that Is the explanation Of
the whole thing"
And after some consideration Mr.. and
Mrs. Marshall came to the conclusion he
was right, and Freda Birchett was sum-
moned to fulfill her, friendly duty of bride
maid at an early date.
The last rays OF a tropical sun were cast
ing deep shadows long the jungle path in
the far-of Eastern island where our hero's
purloinment Of the curio had nearly
brought about the loss of the lady for
whom he had done the deed. A yellow
robed priest of Buddha came out from a
limestone cave near by, and proceeded with
flowers and paper emblems to dress the
shrine where from the hole in the rock,
once more smiled beningly down on him
and his fellows in the village below the
Chinese idol Of the triune god-London

WAS THE MAN TO BLAMEs
His Gallantry, Anyway, Could Not Be
Questioned.

She entered a street car on Fourteenth
street last Friday, all the seats Of which
were occupied but she was not compelled
to hang onto a strap. male person,
seemingly a gentleman. arose and offered
her q seat into which she sank with q DO
lite recognition Of the courtesy and all the
grace of a well-bred woman of 40. The gem
tleman-or the male biped who had as
sumed the guise of "a gentleman-clung to
a strap gracefully as his go odd years
would permit and the car rolled on for two
or three squares before any change in the
situation occurred. %.
Then a large woman, sitting next to the
seat vacated by the gentleman and filed by
the lady to whom he had rendered it, left
the car, and, also, left a vacant space wide
enough for two average men. Thereupon
the lady of this story moved into that place
selves abroad until the seat was covered
with garments, and all of the dear, good
souls were serenely contented
But the man on the strap was not filled
with beautitude. On the contrary, that man
felt the unholy fire of indignation when his
soul should have rejoiced in the happiness
of his neighbours
In his anger he actually let so the strap,
and boldly and brazenly stepped up to the
seat which he had surrendered and said:
May I trouble you to sit clOser?"
To cut this narrative short, he recovered
his seat but the look of Indignation and in
suited dignity that overspread the lady's
countenance will haunt that man to his dy-
ing day, and it ought to.-Washington Post

side of the Judiciary Building grounds.
Here they are daily indulging in the

in the center of the lot and all hands
heaved stones at him. Some of the
missiles he caught, others he lodged
and with quite a number he was
struck. The short stop and the sec

Mr.. DIXON. IS CONE
Star Rider of the Circus
Leaves for the States.
VIII Join Some Big Circus on the
Other Side-Is a Good Man-Wil-
lison on Kauai.

Harry Dixon, the great trick rider
of Wilson's show, left on the City
of Peking yesterday in company with
his wife Mr. Dixon has made no de-
finite arrangements as yet in regard
to his future movements. However,
he hopes to be engaged before long.
1t is almost certain that he will soon
be snapped up by some Of the big
circuses in the States for Harry Dixons
are not to be found every day.
Dixon is a very reticent fellow and,
above all things, dislikes to talk about
himself. However, his friends delight
to tell of his manliness and bravery
In Rangoon several years ago, he
jumped into the sea and saved a man
from drowning. In doing this he
placed himself in great danger but
such thought did not enter his mind.
Again while working with a circus
in Swallow, he showed what stuff there
is in him. A crowd of angry Chinese
invaded the tent and, because they
were not allowed to enter gratis, pro-
ceeded to tear things to pieces. The
circus people fed. Funny Peanuts,
the Japanese clown, was unable to get
away. Dixon saw this plight and,
picking up the little fellow, ran with
him to the British Consulate where
the two took shelter.
Mr.. Wilson is sorry to lose Dixon.
but wishes him we'll in America Dix
on had been with the circus a long
time and was always a great favorite
with the public.
Word was received by the Mikahala
yesterday that Wilson's circus had
played to a crowded house in Lihue,
Kauai, Saturday night. The circus
will pass through here next Tuesday
on the way to Maui. After playing
in the principal places there, trip to
Hilo will be made. The circus will
reopen here in large two pole tent,
Waikiki of the fishmarket. Sam
Marks is now making all the arrange
ments for this.
F. Saunders, the advance agent for
Wilson's circus, arrived on the Mi
kahala yesterday and left for Maui
on the Claudine.

abroad but a few days ago with the
plans and specifications for changing
the mule power to electric power sys-

He announced that he was prepared
to make the change and would ask
certain concessions or agreements from
the Legislature.
An opposition to Mr.. Paine's electric
plans has developed and it is strong
and pronounced. Several business
men and capitalists met ON the sub
ject yesterday and will have a public
gathering at the Chamber of Com
merce this evening. They propose to
have local money put in a line and
will go before the Legislature for
franchise. This is strictly matter Of
business with home men who have
money for any safe investment and
who want the town to have the best
transit system available.
