"Did you ever rotice the cats about
the oyster stands of the city2" asked a
gentleman who takes an interest in
zoology. They are invariably as fat
as butter. That Is because they get
plenty of shellish to eat, and, by the
way, the fondness of cats for that kind
Of diet is a mystery which I'd like TO
hear some evolutionist explain. A cat
will go crazy over shrimp, and itls all
the same whether it's city cat or
Layseed cat that never saw any water
except in a cistern. It's taste born in
them, like their fear of dogs, and the
question is, how the mischief did they
acquire it? According to the evolution
theory, such traits are inherited and
traceable to conditions away back to-
ward the beginning of things. chat
would seem to indicate that the primal
cat was a fisher, but how is one to rec
oncile the idea with their instructive
adherence of the tribe for w1ter?
Their craving for shellfish is so pro-
nounced that there must be an excel
lent reason behind it, and, altogether, it
is quite a pretty problem for SOM sa-
want. 1t is too hard for men. o.

AFTER SAM JONES.
If Arrested, He Will BE Taken Before

If Arrested, He Will BE Taken Before
Hamilton County's Grand Jury.
CHATTANOOGA, Sept. Sam p. } Jones,
the evangelist, will be arrested on an
attachment process if he comes within
this county during the present session
of the Circuit Court. Mr.. Jones held a
big meeting here last spring and made
sensational charges about open viola
ton of Sunday closing laws by saloons
of this city. Last Sunday he was here,
and in an address before a mass meet
ing in the interest of the moral reform
city tick ct, he reiterated these charges.
Early Monday morning deputy
sheriff served a summond on Jones to
appear before the grand jury which
convened this week, and give testimony
along the line of his charges. Jones
consulted an attorney and was told that
technically he would not have to obey
the summons, as the grand jury was
not in session at the time it was served.
Circuit Judge Estill thinks differently
and will bring the Georgia evangelist
before the grand jury by process of law
if he comes within the Judges juris-
dicton.

Good manners are social obligation,

ght of them nor pass them over as I'M
worthy of notice. The extreme man
ners of the fop are silly and unneces-
sary, but the way a wel-bred man de-
ports himself is always worth a young
mans closest study. Good manners
mean comfort for others and the recog-
milton. of little social rights, which to

OPPOSITION TO THE COMBINE.
Declared That 1t Cannot Get Entire
Control.
Especial to The Herald.)

New York, May 4.-The spirit of oppo-
sition to the copper mining concerns
throughout the country engendered in
the minds of the members of the metal
trade here by the present high price of
copper. coupled with the arbitrary stand
taken by the mining companies in sup
plying the demand for stamped material
led the representatives of several of the
large mining industries in this city to
make a statement this morning on the
part of the condition of the copper in
duStry.
In a number of interviews gathered by
the Evening Post from gentlemen who
are authorities, the prevailing tone is one
of antagonism to the big combine. The
concensus of opinion that the present
lack of mined copper, as well as the high
price prevailing on the market. is due
entirely to natural causes.
Many mines shut down at the time of
the Secretan fiasco and are not now in
operation. The large surplus supply on
hand when the French concern went un-
der has at last been exhausted, and the
mines now at work are unable to fill the
demands made upon them. The many
new industries which have sprung up
within the past ten years in which copper
is a necessary material. have been strong
factors in exhausting the available sup
ply.
1t was stated positively by some of the
gentlemen interviewed that the new COM
bine could never be the success antici-
pated as there can be no possibility of 1t
getting entire control Of the copper min
ing industry.

CULLOM MAY Be A CONVERT

Has Contended Against Plan In the

(special to The IIerald.l


Washington. May 4.-Senator Cullom
seating Of gubernatorial appointees as
senators in the four existing vacancies
He says:
I'm the past have contended against
seating this class of appointees. partly
because of party policy, and partly be-
cause I have doubted the governors s
right to appoint. But now l must con-
fesS that L intend TO hold myself free
to look into the question a little more
carefully.
Just before congress adjourned L
had a conversation with Senator Nor
gan on this same subject, and he adj
vanced many arguments on the con-
stitutional side of the subject in favor
of seating such appointees. These ar
gumentS made a deep impression on
me, and he advised me to devote Il
portion of the summer to a study of
the whole subject. L told him that 1
would do so, and [ intend to make
careful investigation.
Although my past record would seem
to indicate that / would vote against
seating Senator Quay. 1 am one of
those who believe that consistency is
not always a jewel. particularly when
it conflicts with right, and that a man
has a right to change if he finds he has
done wrong. The legislators of Penn
sylvania, California, Utah and Della
ware, by failing to elect senators. un-
doubtedly violated the popular will.
There is a great party in this country
that believes we should go directly to
the people to elect our senators. In
these times we ought to come as near
as we can to letting the people have
their say
