Found Water.

/ Mayer Bros, ice manufacturers, de
string an independent water supply for
their plant, recently purchased some
ground slightly overa mile west of town
and began boring for water. Thursday
of last week water was reached at 12S
feet, and at IA feet they stopped.
\ flow of 1000 gallons in ~ hours
has been developed. The water is clear
and COOL only awaiting analysis for the
firm to become thoroughly satisfied that
it is all they desire to maintain the now
unapproachablc quality of their distilled
water ice.
To make assurance dOubly sure, the
firm has another boring underway,
about $50 feet distant, which, equally
successful, will furnish their plant all
the water il needs.
The location of the completed well is
about 30 feet from the National pike, ON
the southeastern side, nearly opposite
the dump of the Savage Mountain Fire
brick company.
About 5000 feet of 2-inch pipe will he
required to convey the water from wells
to plant.

But cats appeal to so few people, and
sick cats have scarcely a friend.
even people who love cats when they
are well groomed, handsome, and
healthy will have nothing to do with
them when they get sick. l think most
people are afraid of them. So little is
known about cats and their ailings.
There is hardly day passes that suf-
fering cat is not brought to us, usually
by pennle well-to-do. We have been
taking in cats and caring for them so
long without charge that pretty nearly
everyone knows about us. at least. in
the northwest end of the city. When we
have cured a cat brought TO us by some
one who has left a name. we return
the animal and the owner is then very
glad to get the pet back"
A friend of these ladies says shc saw
them. on a miserably rainy day. stop
on Street and pick up a most nasty.

The other cat was suffering from in

cats and dogs. The cat was making
satisfactory progress toward recovery.
The hospital is unique feature.
There are innumerable boxes of various
shapes and sizes placed around the
room. each filed with straw. and nearly
floor is scrupulously clean, being
scrubbed every morning and proper dis
infectants used. There is a screen door
securely fastened, but the screens at the
windows are left open SO that the cats
can go and come at will. These win
dows are too high for the sick cats to
jump to, the mistress saying that any
cat that was strong and well enough to
make that leap deserved his liberty.
The hospital is heated during cold
weather by large base-burner stove,
and the windows left open as in sum-
mer.
In the opposite end of the yard from
that where the cat home stands are
several large dry goods boxes, covered
with waterproof cloth and divided into
compartments and filled with straw
