FOUND A PETRIFIED CAT.
A Remarkable Discovery by Work
men I'm DemoIishing Building.

NEW YORK. May 4-Of all the re-
markable discoveries that have been
made since the destruction of old build
ings on the Williamsburg side for the ap-
proaches of the new East River bridge.
the most important and interesting came
to light today.
1t is a petrilied cat. as hard as granite,
and was found betweeeI the walls Of the
old St Marks Episcopal Church. at Bed
ford Avenue and South Fifth Street This
antiquated edifice is being carefully taken
apart and will be regretted alongside
Grace Episcopal Church. at Conselyea
and Lorimer Streets.
The church walls are all of blue stone,
which had been carefully selected when
the church was built. more than sixty
years ago. In some places there are
double walls. with a small aperture be-
tween them. 1t was in one of these very
narrow spaces that the petriiied cat was
found. In the opinion of persons familiar
with embalming processes and the like
this cat must have reposed within the
walls at least half century
1t was tightly wedged in. and from APP
pearances it must have fallen from aloft
because when the workmen came across
it yesterday the legs were crossed in an
y SIdpt.- Nnllc tHt netiu ndd bcen Hdtttn-
ed by being hard pressed between the
stones. The cats claws were still cling
ing to the paws, while the tail contained
q few hardened hairs. The find was nick
named by the workmen. THE Parish
Cat and 1t is on exhibition today in the
showwindow of store at Bedford Ave
nue. and Broadway.
The last interesting discovery before the
cat was about ten days ago in an under
ground cellar of an ancient house in
South Sixth Street, near by the avenue.
Several metal tubs which had long since
become corroded Were unearthed. The
find left the impression that the cellar
was used ut one time for an Illicit dis
tillery. This was probably during the
days when Williamsburg mansions in
loftiness overlooked the East River. and
when the water front was not hidden by
tall factories. as II is today.
In the cellar of an old house at South
Fifth and Berry Streets, between two
walls. small tin box was found a month
ago. in which were several of the old
fashioned copper pennies. One had the
date 1894. another 1887, and the date on
the third could not be deciDhered-

NO MORE BODIES
Found by tho Exploring Parties
in SmuggIsr-UnIon Mine.

Telluride, Col. Nov 22-The develop
aster have not served TO remove the
doubt as to the number OF the victims
and It seems unlikely that the exact num-
ber will be known for some time TO come.
As yet the list remains a y dead and
one IN a precarious condition from in
into the mine from the burning buildings
about the mouth Of the bullion tunnel 1t
is possible that a search OF the ninth
level, which is still in part inaccessible
on account of the gas, will reveal the
bodies OF other victims. but a party head
ed by" Superintendent Edgar Collins went
through all the other portion OF the mine
and found no more bodies
The unexplored portion OF the ninth
level IL about 400 feet i'm length IL will
not be safe TO enter this part OF the shaft
before some time. superintendent Collins
said he did not believe the death roll
would be increased by more than one or
two and possibly not at all.
Ii is said two or three men are missing
but IL Is not certain as the men are most
ly foreigners and many OF them did not
report after making their escape from the
mine. il was only by the most careful
searching that many more survivors were
located
The work OF clearing away the debris
OF the burned buildings and repairing the
tramway has already begun but il is said
that Il will be some time before the mine
can be reopened The funerals OF the -
victims will be held on Saturday after
noon. Mayor Iingsrhaun has issued a
proclamation asking that all business
houses close during The afternoon.
