Pussy and the Fly Paper.
From the Morning OreQonidn.

A large and handsome Angors cat which
Is the pet and pride of a family in the south
end Of the city, and which, relying on this,
makes himself very familiar, got into great
trouble yesterday. Several sheets Of
sticky hy paper had been laid on table
near a sunny window to entrap wandering
flies. The cat. desiring to look out
at the window, leaped on the table and
landed with all four feet on sheet Of the
hy paper. At first he kept cool and en-
deavored to release one foot after another,
but the paper clung closer than brother.
Then he put his nose down to push the paper
from his feet, and a loose end seized him
by the whisksrs and fastened to his fore
head, binding him. Then he was scared
and the trouble commenced, and a sort OF
furry long tailed thunderbolt went rolling
over the carpet. emitting the most horrible
yells and caterwauiings and turning every
thing upside down. The family fastened
to the relief Of their favorite, and more
than one OF them felt his teeth and claws
before he was put In a condition to SEQ
and walk.

Another bottle message from fair cap
tive in the cabin Of the low, ral<ish craft
with skull and cross bones flag at her truck
came ashore yesterday. II had different
signature from either OF the two previous
messages. That fact tends to confirm tho
suspicion OF the plain-clothes men Of the
harbor police that some SLAYER has put in
