FOUND LONG !. LOST PUSSY
WORKMEN DISCOVER CAT SLOWED
AWAY BETWEEN JOIsTs
IN CEILING
HAD BEEN THERE SINCE SHOW
After Being Rescued From Its Pris-
ON House She Was Stolen
and Hasn't Come
Back. *

An echo Of the recent cat and poul-
try show came to light the other day
when some Of the carpenters, who are
engaged in remodeling sthe store on East
Seventh street. near Cedar, which was
used for the occasion by the Poultry as
ISOLATION for it's exhibition, heard the
faint mewing Of cat. At first the
noise did not attract any unusual at
tention, but it finally became more no.
ticeable and an investigation was COM
menced 0e
After vigorous search, 1t was diScov-
cred that the sounds came from between
the joists in the ceiling and a large space
was cut out When this had been done
the workmen were surprised to find q
beautiful large, white cat resting quietly
between the joists. The feline was COW
cred with dust, but nevertheless 1t was
very noticeable that she was not a cat of
ordinary breed, and further inquiry re-
vealed the fact that just such an animal
had been lost while the show was in
progress. Pussy was put in box with
a screen over it and fed with milk, and
it was the intention of the discoveries of
the long-lost animal to return her to her
owner as soon as the name could be as
certained.
Everything went along lovely until two
days later, when the men, on returning
from their lunch, found that someone had
broken open the box and carried off the
precious cat. The result is that no one
seems to know what became of the I'M
lucky animal that spent nearly four
weeks in between the studdings in the
ceiling with nothing to live on except
mice and rats.

Democratic Members OF Council
Speak Their Minds Freely.
Several Of the Democratic members of
the council were seen by reporter for
the G b last night, and made the fol-
lowing statements in regard to the action
taken by Aid. Bantz and Hunt yester-
day:
DR.. Schiffmann: '"The action of both
Mr.. Bantz and Mr. Hunt is deserving of
the severest condemnation. While ordl-
narily either one would have q perfect
right to vote as his conscience dictated,
in view Of the fact that on a joint bal
lot the party that placed them in power
and paid the expenses of their election
having but one majority, this betrayal of
the trust reposed In them by their con-
stttuents will be rebuked should either
ever again be candidate for Office. Mr..
Hunt acted throughout as the dog in the
manger. He insisted upon our voting
with him for Mr.. Barton, although we
agreed to let him name either D. PEBBLES,
E. c. Stringer, J. E. Stryker, o. e. Hol-
man or E. j. Cannon, any one Of whom
would have been acceptable to u.s. but
he insisted upon voting either for Mr..
Barton or Mr.. Markham. 1t looks to me
now very much as though it was fixed

the stand taken by these gentlemen a
week ago was a part of the play
Assemblyman Dr. Whitcomb: at am
losing faith in human kind. I had the
pledged word of Mr. Hunt that he never

pect that they will both deny this, but

those two gentlemen and stand on my

Gratis, and as such should have stood by
their party
Aid. William H Ulmer: q, do not think

the Democrats, they have not showed
themselves as such when it has come
down to voting for Democrats, which I
am sorry to say, but nevertheless it
seems to be true
Assemblyman H. G. Haas: 'T do not

to justify the action Mr.. Bantz and Mr.
Hunt took yesterday They simply SEEM

since which she had experienced a loss
of the use Of her entire right side. Her
mind remained clear, but on Thursday
there was a turn for the worse, and since
that day she had evinced less interest in
her surroundings and had ceased to ask
questions showing an interest in family
affairs. There was no inherent disease
and no constitutional defect but death re-
suited from a growing weakness incident
to general impairment.
Many family bereaVementS have fallen
to the lot of Mrs. Pillsbury. May Is, 1892,
her son Fred died very suddenly of diph-

died very suddenly Sept II, 1899, and on
the morning of Jan. % last her brother,
Henry Guy Carleton. resident Of New
port, n. H., was also called from earth
after an illness OF a few hours.
Mrs. Pillsbury leaves an adopted daugh-
ter, Minnie Pillsbury Townsend, wife OF
B. 3. Townsend, who was taken into the
family as child of tender years, and
who, with her husband, has lived in the
Pillsbury home There live IN the city
also a number of grandchildren: The
four children of Mrs. Fred Pillsbury and
the two sons of Mrs. Charles Pillsbury.
A nephew, Alfred Pillsbury, the son of
John S. Pillsbury, and Frank H. Carleton,
son OF Henry Guy Carleton.
Mrs. Pillsbury has always been a con-
sstent member of the Baptist church.
When she came to Minneapolis she be-
came a member of the First Baptist
church, and her death will be a great loss
to the denomination in the Northwest

interest to her as it was to her husband
