l have been here in Munich a ooaPle of days,
but the city is so large and there is so much to
see that | hardly know where to start. So far
we have taken in the Palace, the English Garden
and the old Picture Gallery. The latter is very
old and contains some pictures painted before
the Christian era. They have also many pictures
by later artists-Rem brandt Rubens Van Dyke,
Durer, etc. l cannot understand how one man
can paint so many pictures in a lifetime. For
instance, Rnbens' pictures are in Munchen,
Nurnberg Dresden, Berlin and Postsdam, be-
sides hundreds of other places know nothing
of, and as they are all as big as houses, and all
are claimed to be originals, he must have been
an industrious worker.
Yesterday i took a walk through the town and
up the river Qsar) to place called Diedenhofen.
1t was about IA miles from the hotel. and when
l returned was pretty tired. From Diedenho-
fen one can see the Alps plainly, and they looked
imposing with their tops covered with snow.
The river runs through canon and is very swift
and full of rapids. They bring wood to Munchen
down the river on RATS, and sat on bridge
about two hours watching the RATS shoot the
rapids. / wanted to take a ride but they would
not let me on.
Germany is noted for its large churches, but
yesterday saw church so small that it con-
tanned only the altar and four little benches.
This afternoon we are going to take another
walk into the country and tomorrow perhaps
we will go to some lake near the Alps.
have just bought ticket to go through the
Anatomical and Pathological Institute, so can
not write much more. Tillie is out looking at
pictures. disguised the crowd by saying the
best picture in the gallery was little boy pick
ing fieas off collie dog. 1t really is very fine
picture, so the catalogue says, and painted by
great man.
From here expect to 90 to Stuttgart and from
there to Heidelberg. Perhaps may walk from
Stuttgart to Heidelberg, if the weather is good.

Lively Fight Between Hawk and Cat
letter from Belair says "a few mornings
ago large chicken hawk swooped down with
terrific velocity upon what it must have
thought to be white chicken in the poultry
yard of Mr.. William H. Paul, near carlton.
1t was the mistake of the aerial birds life, as
this particular object of its prey proved to be
pet Angora cat named Colonel. The cat was
taken by surprise at first, but soon gathered
itself together and furious battle was soon in
progress, which resulted in the discontinue of
the attacking party. The conflict was short,
sharp and decisive, and before Mr.. Paul ar
rived on the scene the hawk flew away, minus
a large mouthful of feathers, which the Colonel
retained as a trophy. The cat was badly cut
by the talOns of the hawk -

Nothing Doing" at Towson-Repor-
ter's Visit There Yesterday Was Unpro-
ductive.-The Baltimore NeWs of Tuesday
said: ITO Towson's pretty village hied scribe
to go gather news, the lawyers there to pillage
of all their thoughts and views perhaps to
get an item, a story new and rare to guardians
ad Item, or law suits entered there; of schemes
of work and profit, or current politics, of do
ings of 'Milt Offutt, of corporation tricks; a
gruesome murder story, or of barns and houses
burning, victims of aspect CORY, or wealth to
ashes turning.
1.-The sad fate that befell him these lines
shall briefly tell. There was no news to tell
him nor none to buy nor sell. The streets and
lawns an aspect bore of peace the most serene
a sleep of peace without a snore lay deep upon
the scene. In all the roads and alleys no wind
nor man was stirring; no revel in the palace ;
in the cot no cat was purring. The clerks of
love were dreaming, nor fingered once the pen
nor even stepped across the way to liquor
now and then. The farmers on the distant
hills tended their lowing herds and cut the
precincts of the town for blossoms, leaves and
birds.
"a balmy, fragrant zephyr blew softly in
and out, but, then, beside the zephyr none else
stirred thereabout. The erstwhile busy spider
her web forgot to spin and sleeping there be-
side her lay all her kith and kin. The bees
had ceased their humming and dozed on bud
and flower, but the trolley car a-coming closed
at last the silent hour"
