Cat sticks to old Home.

z It is well-known fact that cats form their attachments not so much for persons as for localities and sur roundings. A Pittsburgh family re- gently vacated a house inhabited for many years, and for some reason neglected to take along the house hold cat. Now every night about ten o'clock the cat appears about the de- serted premises, stays around, very disconsolate, until midnight and then disappears, nobody knows where.s On her nightly arrival she goes first to the front door, where she scratches and news, as though calling for some one to come and open it. Then she makes a round of the cellar windows and finally climbs over the back fence. The cat looks half starved, and so the neighbors who knew her in more prosperous days now feed her every night when she returns to her old home.

PAN-AMERICAN EXPOSITION.

The rapidly increasing volume of travel to the Pan-American exposition, though heightened by the glowing re- ports of returned tourists, that the yex- position is the highest exemplification of art and utility that the world has ever seen; is largely augmented by the exceptional facilities offered by the sev- eral transportation lines, both as to train service, diverse and variable route tickets, as we'll as stopovers at large number of scenic points.

to drive away, but the French army came up on the double quick and swung on the horses heads, and Net tie had to descend and. return to her family.
 The next day d con stable wearing chin whiskers and a tin star came down and, arrested MT. SaVoie on. the charges of melting a riot, disturbing the peace, retarding traffic, breaking bridle strap, lacerating the feelings of Herr Salgeld's horses, and commit ting numerous other offenses and misdemeanors, all connected with the church incident of Sunday morning. M. Savoie, filled with righteous indig- nation, made haste to appear before the justice of the peace at Watseka.
 While Savoie pere was thus busily engaged Herr Salgeld drove over to Crescent City in a buggy and started to drive away with the fair Nettie. A farm boy working in a field near by unhitched his feetest roam mare from the Splow and rode post haste to Wat seka, and soon M. Savoie was thunder ing back to Crescent City.
 Herr Salgeld had wasted considera- ble time driving around Crescent City looking for a minister, but could find none Suddenly he spied a justice of the peace mending barbed wire fence by the roadside.s At the same moment he saw afar the cloud of dust which hera1ded the approach in hot haste of Savoie pere.
 There was no time to lose Peck and Nettie clasped hands as they sat in the buggy and responded to the words hurled at them by the justice on the other side of the barbed wire fence. Nearer and nearer approached the hurrying hoofs of papa's steed.
 q do pronounce you man and wife. :" said the justice.
 The happy couple turned their horses and drove away. M. Savoie said things in French to the justice of the peace.

International Love Episode with a Romantic Ending-A Wedding on Country e&toad, Performed in
 a Few seconds.

Nettie Savoie was a nice-looking young woman who lived with her pa rents in Crescent City, III. Nettie's papa did not like the kind of young men they raise either in Crescent City or in Gilman, which is the town where the citizens of Crescent City visit when they want to see circus or at tend court.
 Papa Savoie declared that Nettie should not wed any of the young men who blow corn for a living around Crescent City, and especially was it given out by Sayoie pere that Nettie should not smile upon the suit of one Peck Salgeld.
 Nettie's papa is a Frenchman, says the Chicago Tribune, and he disliked Peck because Peck is Teuton whose father and all his near relatives helped syank Alsace and Lorraine away from ssla belle France"
 "A bas dis man what ju call Sal geld," Savoie pere was won't to re mark. ''He is of the German-he is canaille. He my Natalie shall he wed not. Conspuez Sal-geld."
 Peck was too hardy Teuton to be daunted by the vaporings of Savoie pere. He bided his time and kept closer watch on Crescent City than his ancestors did on the Rhine. When ever opportunity offered the German forces would enter Crescent City and drive about waiting for a chance to win a smile from the dark-eyed Nettie. Nettie absolutely wandered out of church one bright Sunday morning somewhat in advance of the rest of the family. She was confused by the glare of the sun and absent-mindedly clambered into the buggy which Herr Salgeld was driving.

GooD ROADS APPROPRIATION.

Highway Commissioner Macdonald is sending out notices to boards of se- lectmen calling attention to the final day, which is August 15. for towns to apply for state aid under the appro- priations of 1901 and 1902. The letter says that the number of towns that have already applied and the large amounts voted by the towns applying, suggests emphatically to towns not as yet voting, the necessity for imme- 1Iate action. The commissioner yes terday. received word from the town of Watertown of it's vote to expend $9,000 for good roads, which would include an appropriation from the state.
