There are two curious things about
cats that are not generally known.
Yellow hairs, however few in number,
always indicate the female. No male
ever had the slightest tint Of yellow.
That is one curiosity, and the other
is that a blue eyed cat is always deaf.
To be sure, blue eyed cats are scarce,
and it is possible that some deaf cats
may not be blue eyed; but wherever
you find a blue eyed cat that feline
is absolutely incapable Of hearing thun-
der.

stating they had just opened the case

1t is reported that the Milwaul

1t is reported that the Milwaukee
road, which in compliance with the
agreement reached between the Chicago
lines early in the week, has restored the
original time limit for ST. Paul Chicago
trains, will take off the two sleepers at
tached to the fast mail, will, within two
weeks, put on another passenger train,
inasmuch as the Pioneer Limited cannot
care for its own business and the bust
ness now handled by the fast mail. In
all probability the Milwaukee will con-
tinue an independent attitude. The
Northwestern will naturally follow, and
the agreement will break up again.

open buggy which had once had top,
and two blankets were noticed in the
woods on Monday by the sons of G D
Gray, who were cutting wood. The fam
lily live on the Church farm in the town
of Johnstown. The boys thought 1t was
the rig of some hunters, but on the fol-
lowing day when the boys found the
horse still in the woods, it was taken up
and Sheriff Maltpress notified. The
horse had broken it's tie, which it is said
was long one, SO that it could feed

RoYcoTr BRAZILIAN COFFEE.
Porto Ricans Compel Return of n
shipment to New York.

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico. Aug. 1.-THE
1913 bags OF despised Brazilian coffee,
which arrived here on the steamship
Ponce from New York, and was allowed
TO enter free OF duty in competition with
the Porto Rican article, have been reship-
ped to New York by the steamship Mara
caibo. The coffee was brought from Bra
zil TO New York and imported here by
Iomba & Co. When the announcement
of the arrival of the cargo was made.
mass meetings were held all over the ISL
and. and 1t was resolved to boycott any
merchant who handled the article. II was
stated that this coffee could be sold for
81. while the Porto Rican article fetched
from so to sl2. The only other remedy. 1t
was said. was through legislation by the
American Congress. The trouble arose
through the removal of the special tariff
Of cents per pound on coffee.
When the coffee arrived the Lomba firm
stated that they had received 1t only on
consignment There WIS much popular
disfavor and the firm at first played for
delay. The people ana the merchants,
however demanded that the goods be sent
back to New York by the first steamship
and the firm yielded. The merchants have
signed an agreement not to import any
Brazilian coffee and as n punishment
I.omba & Co. were compelled to head the
list
The news that Secretary OF the Treas
ury Gage Is considering this matter has
