A pet cat died, recently, at its homo
on State street, and its owner grieved
there at. Pnssys cold form was
wrapped in Il winding sheet and laid
in the shed. The next day the owner
hired 4 man to bury it. The grave
digger repaired to the scene. and
doubtless in the belief that the laboreT
is worthy of what hire he can get. put
in about half day performing the in
tcrment. Later the landlady discov-
cred he had buried 4 bag Of salt in lieu
Of the eat. which lay sans ceremonie
in the back she'd. Fortunately inc
salt had not been dissolved in the tears
shed over the grave ana was restored
to its place beside the ice cream
freezer. II is understood the mourncr
thinks Of holding wake for the bene-
fit Of his tantalizing friends.
