Of course, the cat did not loke 70

without an invitation, much less one
of her old natural enemies-the dogs.
So as soon as the dog entered out
jumped the cat full upon him, and, Of
course, fight followed which
naturally drew into it the owner OF
the fruit store and the owner Of the
dog.
The dog, being very lively. soon
turned over several baskets of fruit
and upset the stands Of oranges and
peanuts, while their masters we're

caught the cat by the neck, and all
the coaxing and pulling would not
persuade him to let go.
The owner of the dog pulled and
pounded and the policeman, seeing a
way out, put his billy" between
Brunos teeth and pried open his
jaws, only to find that the cat was so
badly mangled that it had to be killed,
which the policeman did with two
bullets from his revolver.

IT'S time something vas oeing dons

in by certain men Of arresting per-
sons suspected of being fugutives from

man few days ago. There is a
standing reward for the arrest of es-
capped patients. and a number of peo-
pie about Hillsdale and Anacosta
seem to be on the lookout for them.
Some pedestrians and even some per-
sons who were in vehicles have been
held up and subjected to annoyances.
The practice of these men, added
the officer, lis something on the order
of the conduct of some members Of the
police force. who seem to be on the
look out most of their time for desert
ers from the army and navy.
There is a standing reward for
these deserters.' he concluded, "and

THE SHARP PENKNIFE.

"Yes," said the penknife, opening
and shutting himself over and over
again, and just as hard as he could.
YES, indeed! I'm here to make you
pencils sharp, and I'll cut you and
cut you until you do get sharp, and
the stupider and duller you are the

a sharp click when he opened and

snapped his teeth at them.

ale LoMBARDY PoPLAR.


The Lombardy poplar is noted for
it's slender, upward-polnting branches.
This popularity OF the branches is
accounted for in this way: An old
man was so fortunate as to find a pot
of gold at the end Of the rainbow,
Just at sunset. Being long way from
home, he decided to hide it until
morning and return for it. So he
carefully placed it under the limbs
of the sleeping poplar Iris missed
the pot of gold, and sent Mercury, the
wind messenger, to look for it. He
asked the trees if they had seen it;
and the elm, oak, and pine pointed
straight out to the poplar, saying,
THE poplar knows! the poplar
knows!" Il know" exclaimed the
poplar why, how should l know
And she held up her limbs in sur
prise. Down fell the pot of gold
much to the poplar's astonishment;
Ser it was a very honest tree. So she
stretched her limbs high above her
head, declaring that she would always
hold them so, that the sun-god might
see she had nothing to conceal OF
course. the other trees laughed at
such an unusual proceeding; but she
taught all the little poplar-trees to
stand in the same upright and fear

History Of an Appointment Held ir

History Of an Appointment Held in
England Since Washington's Time.
When Horation Sprague, United
States Consul at Gibraltar, died a few
months ago, II was announced that
the Sprague family had been longer in
the consular service than any other,
but recent Investigations prove that
this distinction belongs to the mem
bers of the celebrated house Of Fox,
who have continuously retained tht
consuiship at Falmouth, England,
since the establishment Of the United
States Government.
State Department records t Wash
ington. D. c., show that Robert w.
Fox, the first consul. grandfather of
the present incumbent, was appointed
by George Washington, on May 80,
1894, and that sine then his descend
ants have controlled the post at Fal
mouth against the protests OF politi-
clans of both parties, who enter as
their plea that the position is held by
an Englishman. But sentiment and
the fact that the original Fox was
appointed by Washington have defeat
ed the aim of the ofice-seekers. The
holding of this consularship has al
ways been a trust of honor with the
Foxes, since they are a wealthy
family, and Office yields but three hun
dred dollars yearly.
During the career Of Robert Were
Fox, the first consul, Falmouth was
the port from which mail packets sail
ed to all parts Of the world, which
lay to the west and south Of the Eng
lish channel, and was the scene Of
great hustle and interest. Mr.. Fox,
while occupying this post. was en-
gagged in extensive mercantile, mining,
and fishing enterprises, and by these
laid the foundations cf the fortune
/ that has since been handed down to
4 his descendants. Many noted people
were entertained at his home, and in
1928. a few years after the death of
/ Mr.. Fox, his widow who was noted
for her hospitality, received the Queen
of Portugal, who held a reception
there.
Robert Were Fox, Jr., appointed
consul in 1915. devoted much time to
the study of science and made many
discoveries. In 1916 he proved that
there was a real increase Of tempera-
ture experienced IN descending Cor
nish mines-a fact previously assert
ed by the Saxon miners, but long dis
puted by such men as HUMBOLDT and
Arago. Among his many valuable in
ventions was the defector dipping
needle, which has been used In every
Arctic and Antarctic expedition since
that time in determining the magnetic
condition of the different parts OF the
earths surface.
President Lincoln appointed the
third consul, Alfred Fox, in 1868. This
gentleman won the highest commenda-
tion from the government for his eff
cheney and faithfulness during the late
war. The coast at Falmouth is very
dangerous. and often ships are wreck
ed there; Mr.. Fox did all in his power
! in rendering help to these ship-wrecR-
ed crews. and for this was highly re-
warded by the heads of the nations.
Howard Fox, F. G. s., the present
consul. was appointed by President
Grant. He had been acting as deputy
consul. but in 1874 succeeded his
father to the consulate.
