CAT FIsHED FOR TROUT.
Fisherman Put Half a Dozen in His
Bathtub and Tabby Quickly
Caught Them

A member Of the Sullivan club
caught half a dozen trout one day last
summer and carried them alive to
his cottage, intending to take them
to the city. He turned the water into
his bathtub and the trout seemed to
thrive as well there as they had done
in the streams.
That afternoon one Of the fish dis
appeared. The man, thinking it had
jumped out, looked all around the
room, but no trout was to be seen.
Next morning two more were gone
and the servant was closely ques-
toned. Then two more disappeared
and the fisherman was so much con-
cerned that he took a place outside
the bathroom window and proceeded
to watch.
Pretty soon the family cat entered,
says the New York Times, perched on
the edge of the tub and, waiting its
chance, struck viciously into the wa
ter with one paw, and brought up the
remaining trout.

Gov. Taft Tells How FiIipinOs
Should Have Sslf-GOYernment.
TO Grant Them Independence, He
says, Would COnsign 90 Per cent.
Of Ignorant Natives to servfIty
and Create an OIIearchy.

Washington, Feb. 1s.-Gov. Taft, In
his testimony before the senate COM
mittee on the Philippines Monday,
stated more succinct1y than he has
heretofore done his theory as to what
congress should do IN the way of sup
plying the Philippine people with a
form Of government. His plan is first
to give the people a qualified suffrage
with q gradual growth IN popular
government, which should be enlarged
through education in the English Ian
guage and in American institutions;
second, to institute within reason
ably short time local legislature to
consist Of two bodies, one to be chO-
sen by a vote and the other to be ap-
POintive; third, to permit the islands
TO send two or three representatives
to Washington Gov. Taft said he
agreed with Gen. Funston that the
establishment of a popular assem-
blage would give opportunity to dem
agogues to stir up the people, but
that he did not include in this desig-
nation all persons who are opposed
to American control. There are, he
said, many men in the islands who
cOnsclentlOusIy oppose the domination
Of the United States.
To grant independence would, he
thought, have the effect of cOnsigning
the 80 per cent. Of uneducated people
in the islands to the same serviIe Po-
sitiOn they held under Spanish rule.
UNIT for Jury Duty.
Washington, Feb. 1.-THE hearing
of Gov. Taft on the Philippine ques-
ton by the senate committee began
Saturday with a series of questions
by Senator Patterson in regard to the
fitness of Filipinos for jury duty. Mr..
Patterson asked whether the native
population in which the voting fran
chise is bestowed could not be trust
ed to do jury duty. The governor re-
piled in the negative, saying they are
so used to corruption in the admin
istration OF justice that they could
not be trusted.

in the business altogether. Geese come
to the island once q year in great focks
to lay eggs and hatch their young. Mr.
Wheaton was enabled TO get any quan-
