BOY NAMED FOR A CAT.

Mc- pastorate was a suburb of Boston, and one of my parishiOners was a lady Of large estate and gentlewoman Iii every sense of the word, generally known to the community as Aunt Es- ther. She was an eccentric person, who wore silk gowns very long in the train and short in front, and always several old fashioned brooches at the same t;mc. She visited Washington frequent ", always with her pet cat as a travel
 ing companion, and she was one of the few ladies accorded a seat on the floor of the house Of congress. On the grounds of her country home was [, diminutive cemetery, where her feline pets slept after life's fitful fever.
 During my residence in the parish her special favorite was a large Nal tese cat whose death occurred just be- fore the coming of new baby at the lodge keepers home on Aunt Esther's place. She was to be godmother ana name the child, while I was to bap- tize it. Her recent bitter bereavement still weighed on her soul, and when 1 asked, By what name shall the child be known?'

 Now We are at the end of our jour ney: that is we are at the terminus 0! the Big Bug railroad, but not the end of all we have to say. If this same spoc was as we saw it two years ago these words would have to be written by what light the moon and stars afforde& and our desk would be the flat side of some ohlising rock-providing we coulc find one. and our company would be the lonesome howl of a wandering bowling coyote. But how is it tonight. We only ask this question to impress our readers with the importance of the situation. Considerably less than two years ago there was not resident within one mile of the Poland. Today it is the terminus of a ten-mile nroau gauge railroad with business houses Ind residences extending nearly half . nile, and instead of having to write by moon or star light we are having the benefit of the incandeScent, a fa New York, or elsewhere, on a polished oa1 table, in snug. cosy room in T two-story building-too good, but it's a fact just the same.

MINES ON THE STRIP.

District Attorney George R. Hill, turned Monday from Q trip to the vi cinity of the O Brien mines on the re- gently cut-o off strip. They went for the purpose of looking over the ground to ascertain if the conditions were favor able for a power plant. They camped ct the Meadows ranch, mouth or Drir- ping Springs wash, and q preliminar& survey showed that the fall from the box to the Gila river was POO feet. The water can be fumed from the box to q bluff near the mouth of the wash. and from there piped to the O'Brien mines. three miles, with an additional fali Of 200 feet. Ample power can be developed for an electric plant, and the mines can be furnished with all necessary water The O'Brien group. owned by Phelps Dodge z O., the Chittenden claims, and others, on all of which the assess mert work has been done regularly for years under q permit from the interior department, were jumped as soon as the strip was cut off, under the assump- ton that they were immediately liable to location. The ruling when the coal strip was thrown open in 1897. was that original occupants, those in possession at that date, were allowed 90 days in which to perfect their filings. If the same law applies now, as it undQubted- ly does. the relocators are a little "pre- vious. and have acquired some eXpcn- sive litigation. instead of dividend pay ing nines.-Globe Times.

DE LANCEY'S PINE.

There is an interesting pine tree n Bronx park says the New York Times close to the entrance of the geological gardens. that is worthy of greater honor than is usually accorded it. To few admirers who remember the local ity before it ever became a part of New York this old tree goes by the name of De Lancey's pine. poem has been written about it, setting forth the vir- tues of "De Lancey's ancient pine The tree is by far the tallest for miles around, and although it's lower branches have been badly treated, a towering mass of green boughs sur mounts the jestic survivor of the days when the old De Lancey family owned a large portion of the estate now in the Bronx park domain. The old De Lancey house. that was the scene Of many gay parties in precautionary days, was burned down about thirty years ago. The tall pine is supposed to be close to 150 years old at least, ani it's present condition is favorable for at least another century of life.

FOR A MAIDEN BRAVE.

Possessing the narrative gift of the st0ryteller to high degree, MT Hotchlliss is at his best in this story of early revolutionary days. published by D. Appleton & Co.,, and sold for S1.50. It is book of such exciting adventure that many a reader, young or old, will sit up through the night hours to finish it. Yet hair-raising as the episodes are, there is no blood shed. Each chap ter contains climax, but they are all worked lip to daring grand climax that none but one of MT. Hotchkiss's S skill would have had the courage to use.
 Apart from the intensity of the plot itself, tremendous interest is added by the locality in which the scene is laid. The action is supposed to have occurred some time after the battle Of Long Island, and residents oi south ern Connecticut and the whole of Long Island who are wont to point to old landmarks as relics Of revolutionary traditions will take a particular delight in associating the scenes in the book with familiar places. MT. Hotchkiss has sbeen studicusly accurate in his
 ;dentifications, and the book has
 ! permanent value as d record of his
 tcTical data.
 The story opens in New Haven. but
 moves rapidly across the Sound to the
 then Nassau, now Long. Island. Oys- Ter Bay, Srnithtown, Great South Bay, Massanequa Southold and Greenport
 are brought into the story, and Jamai- ca, Bedford, Flatbush, and Blooklyn. now all included within the limits of the city of New York. appear before the reader as real as if they were HOW in existence as they were then. The hero and the villain are cous- ins, whose close resemblance to each other leads to remarkable complica- | tions. There are really two heroines one exhibiting great nobilFty of charac- ter, and the other being an arch plot ter, although for time it is difficult
 to determine which is the "naider 'orave."
 There never was a novel just liks this, and despite all of NIT. Hotchkiss's | lever writing heretofore, this is cer- ! tainly his masterpiece.
