How Pussy Convinced Her Captors That
She Deserved Her Release.
Students of one of the big UNIVERSE
ties in this city have a cat that has
utterly refused to become a martyr to
science. Its history is another in
stance OF the refining and elevating
influence of science, says the New York
Herald. The professor asked the jan
itor TO get cat for him, as he wished
to illustrate his lecture on "Respira-
ton" by experiments on the animal.
The janitor succeeded in getting one
with the aid of some small boys. When
his students had assembled the pro-
fessor put the cat into the glass re-
ceiver of the air pump and began to
pump out the air Before the piston
had time to move more than once or
twice the cat began to feel very I'M
comfortable and. discovering the aper-
ture through which the air was escap-
ing, put her feet on It. and thus corked
the pipe and stopped the removal Of
the air. Several subsequent attempts
to carry on the experiments were alike
Intellectual, for as soon A. the glass
cover was put over her and she felt the
removal Of the air the cat would put
her feet over the pipe and keep them
pressed there. The students. struck
by the remarkable intelligence shown
by the cat, asked the professor to lib
crate the animal. and loudly cheered
her self-possession when the cat, after
coolly smoothing her ruffled fur. jump
ed down and rubbed against the legs of
the students sitting on the front bench.
She is now permanently annexed to
the college. and an object of interest to
all visitors.

TO SUCCEED HAYWARD.
The Fight Is Warm Between Allen
and Hitchcock.

Omaha, Dec S.-Governor Poynter
has been called from the capital to AL
bian by the illness of his father, and
this has caused a slight break in the
fight for senator to succeed Senator
Hayward. The friends of both Allen
and Hitchcock are busy organizing
their forces, however.
One feature of the contest is the
dropping of all talk of a compromise
candidate and it appears certain that
one of the two will get it. The fusion
members of the last legislature are
practically unanimous in urging Aliens
appointment. AS they are practically
all Populists and Governor Poynter is
also a Populist, this is counted on to
have its effect.
The Democrats are apparently united
on Hitchcock, and are making their
strongest fight on the plea that the
Democrats have not heretofore received
their share of the offices under the flu
sion arrangement.
The only serious detection among the
Democrats from Hitchcock is Attorney
General Smith, who is in Washington,
and who is reported to have telegraph
ed Poynter urging Aliens appointment
The governor has announced the ap-
pointment will not be made before the
middle of next week in order to give
all parties ample chance to be heard

quest of the governor, when no riot
or insurrection existed. and without
consulting the legislature or the local

the colonial army in addition to a sys-

WILL SETTLE THE QUESTION.
Both Schley and Sampson May Be
Made Vice Admirals

New York, Dec. S.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says: Pres
ident Mckinley, during an interview
with Senator Wellington, expressed
himself in favor of reviving the grade
of vice admiral in the interest of both
Rear Admiral Sampson and Rear Ad-
miral Schley. He believes that this is
the simplest solution of the whole
Sampson-Schley controversy and it is
expected that Senator Wellington will
introduce bill in. few days provid-
ing for the appointment of two vice
admirals without specifying names.
The president very frankly said that
if such a bill became a law he would
promptly nominate both Sampson and
Schley in the order named This ar
rangement, both the president and SEN
ator Wellington believe will meet the
approval of the majority of the friends
of both officers.

Contest viii Be Made.

The other Democratic candidates for
the minor offices on the state ticket,
acting on the belief that the commits
sioners' opinion will contain implica-
tons of fraud, have already decided to
fight before the state contesting board
for the positions TO which they believe
themselves entitled. They held several
conferences during the day, but it was
not definitely determined until o'clock
in the afternoon to make the contest.
The politicians of both parties de-
parted from Frankfort in great num-
bers during the day and the town to-
night is practically deserted.
There has been a great amount of
moSey bet throughout Kentucky as to
who would be the next governor and
the bettors are trying to decide whether
if Taylor is declared governor and later
ou5ted by the legislature as not being
a legal incumbent, he was in fact gov
ernor at all in the eyes of the law. The
Taylor bettors construe ii one way and
naturally the Goebel men figure it out
differently. There has been so much
money wagered on the outcome that
the thing has really a serious side to it.
