At Delmonicos in New York several
prominent American amateur fisher

not lacking in the imagination which

until he dramatically closed with a
description of how he played an eagle
and big trout, and then the eagle
swooped down on it and carried the
trout into the air. After running out
fifteen hundred feet of line Mr.. Kill
burn said he landed both the trout
and the eagle. Justice Traux, who
followed Mr.. Kilburn, went him one

ADVANTAGE OF BEING USEFUL
Knowing How 10 do Someihias !l.srul
Brought This Man Success.

Like most other men who have &C
complished something in life, the
most successful railway manager Of
the country-perhaps in the world
had to carve his own way by hard
work in early life. He paid his way
at school by working morning and
evenings, and yet he found time to
amuse himself with an old surveyors
compass which he borrowed.
The village boys willingly served
him as 'tiagmen and chain bearers,
taking their pay in toys which he
made for them. In this war he gained
a practical knowledge of he survey
or's art, the mathema.Iss Of which
he worked out evenings -mainly af-
ter he left school, while employed in
harware store as clerk.
At the age at seventeen he was able
to take charge of party engaged in
a county survey, One day, late in the
season,his employerfailed, leaving the
party unpaid a long way from home,
among strangers, and without cred
it. Our young surveyor had only .
ten-cent piece left. He wanted to
complete the survey, but he saw no
way to do so. The rest of the story
may be best told in his own words:
Tired out with NJ i@l days
tramp, hungry and detected he says,
II was resting in rocky nook near
the town of Shawaugunk, my tears
trickling down the face of the COM
pass, when | was suddenly hailed by
farmer,who asked me to go home
with him and make noon-mark-a
north and south line 50 the shadow
of an upright object falling on 1t
will indicate midday.
III was asked TO take dinner first,
and joyfully accepted, as had supped
on two small crackers the night be-
fore, had been hard at work since
daylight, and felt exceedingly faint.
After hearty dinner, | made the
MONDAY mark, and was about to de-
part, when the hospitable farmer
asked me what | charged for my
work. said charged nothing, he
was welcome to it; but he offered me
o half-dollar, insisting that it was the
price neighbor had paid for one.
| accepted the money and went my
way rejoicing.
"If ! had discovered a new CONT.

ed, for, with sixty cents in my pock-
ct, and the prospect of making other
noon-day marks along the route, l
saw my way to carry my enterprise
through. never forgot that day.
From that time forward the fame OF
my noon-day marks proceeded me;
applications came in from the farm
ers all around, and out of this new
source of supply ! paid all expenses
Of my surveys, and came out at the
end with six dollars in my pocket"

THE CAT CAME BACK.
The brazilian Feline Was Not Halfaa
Nice As He Looked,

-"
It is not at every cabinet meeting
that the .prepoaderous and weighty
wheels of the government revolve. 1t
is frequently the case that there is
not much official business OF import
ance to consider, and then lighter
matters are interestingly talked of by
the president and his advisers. Every
member of the cabinet likes joke,
and sometimes each man has good
story TO tell. One of these was told
the other day, Secretary Long being,
credited with the narrative.
The story is about Charles Page
Bryan, the American minister to Bra
I'll, and Brazilian cat. There is not
a more affable or courteous man in
the government service than Mr.. Bry-
an. One day Mr.. Bryan was at the
home of a Brazilian official, and see
ing a fine looking Brazilian cat ex-
pressed admiration of it.
The Brazilian official promptly
turned it over ,to Mr.. Bryan, with the
assurance that it gave him pleasure
to present it to a person held in such
high esteem. Mr. Bryan was delight
ed, and could not do too much for THE
cat when it was sent TO his house.
But in few days there was
change, The cat, mixture OF domest-
ic and wild animal, proved an awful
nuisance. There were times when he
possessed the aromaof Barnums whole
menagerie. The worst of all was that
he did mean livingstone up clothing,
scratched furniture, fought all the
other pets and kept Mr.. Bryan's home
in turmoil.
A week later the coast and geodetic
survey vessel, the Pathfinder. put in
at Rio Janeiro. OF course, all the of
fcers called on Mr.. Bryan. The COM
mander of the vessel admired the cat.
Mr.. Bryan said 1T gave him the great
est pleasure to present it to his friend.
So the cat was installed on the Path
finder. which started on its way up
the Pacific coast.
Three days was all that was needed
Ito convince the Pathfinder and its
officers that the cat was the worst
nuisance known They didn't know
what to do with the animal. Stopping
at another South American port one
day they found a United States war
ship in port. The officers of the YES
sells EXCHANGED visits.
The naval officials saw the cat and
admired its conduct. Why, certainly,
they could have the cat, although they
hated to part from such fine animal.
Forthwith the cat was sent on board
the man-of-war and soon thereafter
the fun began. The officers saw that
they didn't have a mascot. but they
held conference, and as they were
going to Rio Janeiro they knew what
to do.
They would just present the cat to
a friend. So when they put into port
they called on Minister Bryan, told
him they had fine cat and would
send it TO him as a present. He ac-
cepted the present, but there is said
ITO have been funny twinkle in his
eyes when the naval people told him
the officers of the Pathfinder had CIV
en- it to them.
