OCCUPATION FOR WOMEN.
Breeding Angora Cats Presents Possible
ties For the Home Tied


ties For the Home Tied
Forrest Crissey, i'll discussing "The
Breeding of Angora Cats as Voca-
ton, in The Woman Home Compan
ion, says:
"It is the general opinion Of these cNt
fanciers that the culture of Angoras s
an occupation which any young woman
with fondness for pets and little Of
the commercial instinct may pursue
with profit as we'll as pleasure. 1t is an
occupation in which success does not
depend upon special talent. One can
not succeed i'll literature, music, the
arts or in teaching without course Of
training and an Unborn adaptability,
but the rearing of cats calls for no men,
tai preparation or for any rare power
in any particular direction. Capital,
however, is necessary. Angora cats
bring good price, and it will cost
something to establish kennel. The
amount will depend upon the magni-
tude of the beginning. One may expend
500 and secure, perhaps, three choice
thoroughbred adults, or at an outlay of
$25 or thereabout one may purchase a
male and female kitten and rear them
herself. The fitting up of suitable
kennel need not cost much, but there
are important points in the construction
and care of the kennel which should
not be neglected and which any owner
of Angoras is always ready to explain.
1.-The essentials for successful An
CORA kennel are not elaborate. Most i'm
portant is an ample outdoor runway,
made Of woven wire, with roof of the
| same material This should connect
with cozy house or dormitory. Both
apartments should be provided with ele-
waited shelves, as the cats like to sleep
as far from the ground as possible. They
also enjoy the exercise of jumping up
to and down from their elevated perch
es. Fresh grass and pure milk are abso-
Lutte necessities. The Angora has been a
much slandered animal. The general
public believes it to be delicate in ply
sique and surly and treacherous in dis,
position. This is as far from the truth
as is possible. They are almost uniform,
ly amiable and affectionate in DISPOSE
tion and possess hardy and vigorous
constitutions. They are full of interest,
ing eccentriCities, however.

A MaRniasisnt Concert.

The farewell concert Ia honor and
under the direction Of Chief Musician
John +. Klein. on the eve Of his depart
ure for the east, attracted an audience
into the post hall at Fort sherman
"Wednesday evening which packed the
room 10 It's utmos; capacity, many be
ing unable 10 secure even standing
room. The enthusiasm was contagious
and rose from the moment Of the ap-
pcaranec OF l'rof. Klein until the dis
play OF the Cuban flag. at a given mo-
ment. la the last number, when the
audience gave expression TO its sym
patty ia deaiening and prolonged cheers
Every number on the program was
rendered with elegance aud feeling.
Near the end Of part first a beautiful
floral piece. in roses aud other fragrant
flowers, was borne TO the stage by Phi
vate Schumann, who was followed by
Chaplain Batcman. Prof. Klein re
ceived the superb tribute with evident
surprise. The chaplain, In well chosen
words. expressed on behalf Of the COM
mand and the community at large the
sentiments Of sincere regard and esteem
in which the chief musician is without
exception held. The speaker assured
him that while all were willing for him
10 take his head with him on his con.
templated journey, all were DESTROYS
that he should leave his heart in Fort
sherman, and return TO his FIRST love
when he shall have re.enlisted. Prof.
Klein responded in few words Of
thanks. IL is understood that the floral
piece was the gift of Colonel and Mrs.
Theaker.
The closing number Flags of All
Nations" evoked an interest bordering
upon excitement Tho vast audience
rose as "Old Glory" was unfurled; the
British flag in turn was feebly cheered !;
the Irish flag won hearty round Of
applause; the flag Of Spain stuck fast
and would not unfold seemed 10 know
what was coming-but was at length
cut loose and greeted by a round Of
Kisses. When the Cuban flag, occupy
ing central position between United
States colors, unrolled, a pendant ban
ner before the audience, enthusiasm
reached It's highest pitch: and then,
above all, and over all, there fell two
large national flags and the strains of
"Hail Columbia" stirred the blood Of
patriots. The concert from every stand
point was a remarkable and memoir
able one.

played at the concert Wednesday even
ing: 1t was a humorous imitation of
the dancing club orchestra. Prof Deck,
= few days before the concert occurred,
made complaint for the purpose of

fecuy willing to go upon the stage in
the hall, or even on comPany's hand
cart, and proclaim to any audience eth

least jealous of Prof. Deck, and that
their rendering OF the Village Orclies-
ira" would be nothing but harmless
joke and that it would be a benefit to
any dyspeptics who would attend the
concert. This explanation and the de-
cision of the commanding officer, who
did not consider the matter worthy of
serious consideration, concillated Prof.
Deck who. like all musical geniuses,
may be little oyer-sensitive.
