A pensioned English Cat.

A most fortunate animal is the
little kitten which recently attached it
self TO the Church of st. Augustine's,
Highbury. In spite of the efforts put
forth by the officials to induce her to
leave the sacred precincts she returned
again and again, her persistency in the
end bringing rich reward. Impressed
with the kittens attachment for the ed
ifice, a lady connected with the church
set aside, a sum OF money to be devoted
to the comfort and maintenance of the
kitten. AS a protection against the
inclemency of the weather, a neat little
kennel has been erected in n cozy cor
ner of the grounds at this lady's eX-
pense, while local purveyors of meat
and milk daily supply the kitten'sneeds.
The constables who are on fixed duty
at this spot also eyince warm interest
in the little creatures welfare.

of betting about three inches long and
half an inch wide, and tackled bit to
each block. This was for the goose to
take hold by. Then laid in a few ears
of corn.
"The second night 1 brought the
goose up. He had had nothing to eat
and was pretty hungry. 1 began with
the first three letters of the alphabet
"A, b, C-showed him the difference
between them, and kept at him until
he brought me the right letter each
time 1 asked for it. Then rewarded
him with few grains of corn-not too
much-and we went ON to the next let
ters.
"He learned the whole alphabet per-
fectly in two evenings and 1 never
heard of child who did as well. Every
time he picked up tile letter / called
for 1 gave him grain of corn, but
gave him nothing when he brought the
wrong letter. Know? Why, that goose
was as eager to learn as | was to teach,
just as soon as he found that the proper
letter always brought him something
to eat!
"After that had cards printed with
short words upon them and l taught
the goose to bring the correct answer
to questions ] asked him. Some of my
questions were: who was the first
president% Who was the last presi-
dent?' What is your hame?' What
is my nance Where do you live?'
How many days do you work?' Six
was the goose's answer. What do you
work for?' Corn What do l work
for?' Money
81 had the days OF the week printed
in slips, too. Then l asked my goose:
What is to-day?' And taught him to
bring the right answer. Oh, that was
trick, of course! The blocks or cards
were laid in row upon the floor and
the goose walked along in front of
them, stopping at the right place.
When L asked: What day is to-day|
the goose marched gravely by each un-
til he saw my foot move just a little
toward a particular card. He knew
that was the one to take, and he
brought me Tuesday, if it was Tuesday,
as straight as die.
'NeXt / taught him to tell the time
of day. This was little more COM
| plicated, but 1 did it in much the same
way. l was not particular about min
utes, but four o'clock or 'half-past
two was near enough for a goose to
get, and very slight motion of my foot
showed him the correct hours of the
day card just as well as the name of the
day of the week.
Now, you may call that a smart
goose or even doubt the story altogeth-
er, but it is true enough, and believe
many geese could learn as well as that
goose did.
"He made big reputation, though.
used to show him off to my friends and
they brought others to see my trained
goose, and at last people came from all
over the country to see that goose tell
what time it was"
A reward of food when they are
when they prove refractory is enough
incentive for animals TO learn readily
the tricks required of them.
Special ways of teaching have TO be
used with each animal, and the trainer
must learn something of the animal, his
habits, peculiarities, likings and dis
likings before he can manage the crea-
ture readily. In fact he must get ac-
quainted with his pupil.

with persistent kind treatment they

ESCAPED THE PEN|TENT|ARY
LODGING HOUSE KEEPER WAS
FINED SIS.
Pleaded Guilty to Charge of Keeping
House of observation-disclosures
By the Court.

". H. Evans. proprietor of the East
Second South lodging house raided Sat
urday night, was put on the Goals and
roasted to a turn yesterday afternoon by
Judge Timmony. Evans was primarily
charged with abduction for immoral pur-
poses, but investigation proved that there
was nothing in the statutes covering his
offense, ana the most serious charge that
could be brought was keeping a house of
prostitution. Evans willingly pleaded
guilty to this, his attorney, ID. c. Eich-
nor, stating that his client would give up
the house and never attempt to run such
a place again.
In view of this. Attorney Gunter, for
the state, suggested a fine of 500 and
costs. Judge Timmony, however, made
the amount SIS, and turned TO Evans with
the following:
Il want TO say that you are very for
tunate that you do not go to the peniten-
l'tiary. A man iof your age, who is pre-
sumed to HAYES children of his own, and
youngest girl, TO come TO his place at
o'clock in the. morning, with boys that
age-no punishment is too great for him.
If L have any regret in this matter, 1t
is that there is no statute under which
you can be sent to the penltentlary.
Keeping a house of prostitution is not
serious enough. But, am sorry to say.
prostitution seems as legal as anything
else in Salt Lake, and if l live to see the
next legislature, L shall do everything
possible to have a statute constructed
embracing this crime
The Simpson girls and Jenkins and
Pool, who were caught in the mouse,
were charged with resorting to a house of
prostitution for lewdness. The younger
girl Marie, age 16 was sent home later
in the day while her sister is still held.
The parents of the boys gave bonds Tor
their appearance Wednesday.

The main thoroughfare of Bingham is

The number of people who come out
from the city in the morning, hire
horse, visit some mine and slide out
again on the afternoon train is daily
on the increase Old reSidenters watch
the procession pass up and back
through the town and many of them
wonder what it all means. One old
codger was heard to remark yesterday:
Wonder if them fellows amt chasing
after train robbers?"
1t is hard work, they say. to learn
an old dog new tricks. and the saying
finds exemplification in the way old
Binghamites refer to the names of
mines. For instance, one seldom hears
them speak of the Boston Consolidated
or the United States Mining company's
claims 1t is always the name of some
individual claim or group of claims, as
they were known before becoming the
possessions of the big companies, by
which any mine in the camp is desig
mated. They can readily direct you to
the Old Hickory. but ask for the Bing-
ham Copper & Gold Mining company's
ground and you have them stumped

Colony Officials Speak Highly of the

Hon. A C. WINS president of the Mex

them in Sundays Herald. Speaking for
both Of them, Mr.. Eying said they had
had very little trouble with their Mexican
neighbors, but, on the other hand, had
been treated with great consideration.
1t might possibly be inferred from the
words attributed 10 me-" said he, that
the Mexican farmers do not observe thu
law in regard to water rights. At a
matter of fact, We have no more trouble
on that score than is found in every
community where irrigation is practced.
The MexicanS make good neighborS in
that and other respects, and treat US as

Talking about the progress of Colonia

in Mexico, Mr. Eying said the new rail-
road from FL PaSO has brought the colony
within fifteen miles of railroad communi-
cation, and there is q prospect that the
line will be extended still further. rum
