Louis Vain, the authority on cats,
declares that the domestic cat has at
last reached a very interesting stage
Of development Mr.. Vain states that
the physical and nervous tissues of
the cat having felt the confinement Of
home life, the long period Of cruelty
practiced upon it having come to an
end, and practically all wild sense
and the old instincts having been beat
Ell out of it, the cat Of the present
day is left to construct Il new life for
itself and to adapt itself to it's mod
ern surroundings. 1t begins it's new
career mentally weak, but loving care
and attention will strengthen its
brain, and in the future we may look
forward to creatures grandly and
beautifully made, of great size and in
telligence. The cat" says Mr.. Vain,
will then have had given to it a
power which man has not conceived
pOssible-the power to reproduce its
remarkable qualities among the wild
animals of its own kind and through
them gradually into all savage ami
mails. Thus will begin the conquest
and retaining Of the whole brute. Gre

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY -, 1902.

The Milwaukee Free Press of Feb.
10 contained some sensational dis
closures regarding an alleged attempt
by the Wisconsin Republican League
to purchase the political opinions Of
the newspapers of Grant county.
Various interviews and affidavits were
published, showing that Mr.. Megget
had gone through the county in the
interest of the league, and for the
purpose Of securing the opposition of
the Republican newspapers to the re-
election of Governor LaFollette. The
expose emphasizes the fact that money
Is being used without stint by both
factions of the Republican party in
the present unseemly struggle. The
establishment of stalwart and anti
stalwart newspapers in various sec
tlons OF the state and the publication
IN newspapers already established
OF column after column of abuse Of
this or that political leader, bear too
plainly the stamp Of Tammany meth
DDS. The extent to which the fight
among the Republican leaders in
Wisconsin is being carried certainly
does not make for good morals.

General Mining Notes.

Platteville Witness, Feb. 5; The
Smoker company on the east ridge
struck jack at sixty feet. 1t is not in
paying quantity yet, but the ore i'm
proves every foot they so down.
The Big Chunk company are still
rolling out several thousand pounds
of lead a day.
John Pittz and Louis Pross are
taking out about a thousand pounds
of lead a day. They have fiat sheet
of lead arching over an opening at 30
feet.
The parties who re-opened the Dug
dale and Davis mine have found
good paying lead going right on from
the old workings.
The farrell & May Diggings near
Elmo is reported as taking out 10000
pounds of lead day.

Too Early to Learn.

Thomas NJ. Patterson, the new SEN
ator from Colorado, is principally
known in his state for the frequency
with which he changes his politics.
Within the last eight years he has
been a Democrat, then Populist and
then a Democrat again, besides sup
porting Independent local tickets at
various times in Denver. In Wash
ingtOn this winter they are telling a
story Of something that happaned in
Denver once. 4 young and green po-
Iitical canvasSer had been put on to
canvass the election district in which
Mr.. Patterson lived. He rang the bell
of the magnificent Patterson home at
the corner Of Pennsylvania and Elev-
enth avenues, and of the sable servi-
tor who appeared demanded the name
of the occupant.
'Mistah Tom Patterson" responded
the cOlOred boy.
What are his Dolitics?" asked the
canvasser, adhering strictly TO his list
Of printed questions.
"Why, laWs-a-masSy, boss" said the
serving man, Il don't know. He amt

The SurcSt Redress.

Waukesha Dispctch: Agitation and
and publicity is the surest redress for
the correction of local or other condi-
tions that need remedying. 1t is the
existence of the conditions themselves,
aud not directing attention to them,
that works the harm to a community.
Correction can only come from pub

All household linen should be

ceded by the initial of the wife's given
name. Bed linen and towels for daily

Women Students and Marriage.

President NJ. Carey Thomas Of Bryn
Mawr college, in a published letter on
the subject Of higher education shows
that there are now more than 81 900
women studying in colleges, and that
these constitute PA per cent of all
college students. Relative to mar
riage, she says: college women, like
other women, are dependent on men
for marriage, and the college presi-
dents who enjoin upon us to teach
women womanly virtues and educate
them to become wives and mothers
should begin by educating their own
college men to become husbands. =
