THE CAT AND TIIE CAN.


A cat and a can figured in an Incl

nice residential section OF the city at
Ninth and West streets, at $50 o'clock
last evening.
The Wayfarer is informed by a per-
son residing there, that the people were
nrst attracted by the thTashing and
banging OF tin can on the pavement
Looking for the miscreant who would
thus disturb the peace and quietude OF
the section on Sunday evening, they
discovered that It was stray cat.
which had got its head in a long mar
row can, presumably to eat something
in the bottom OF it, and was unable TO
get 1t out again. Around and around
went the unfortunate feline. Men
laughed and women gave vent to ex.
pressions OF pity. A colored mar
caught the animal and received several
severe scratches while endeaYoring tc
remove the can. He gave it up as a
bad job. Then the dog catcher came
along. He got a piece Of string ant
informed the assembled multitude tina
he proposed to tie the string to tn,

around until either the can or the tai
dropped on. While he was elucidatins
his plan some passerby picked up tn,
cat, took hold Of the can and twistet
and pulled until tabby's head wa.
