 MT Arthur then talked on the question of strikes. which do not meet his approv- al. In fact Mir. Arthur decried in the strongest terms the sympathetic strike ana advocated arbitration by unpreju- diced judges.
 He declared he had no patience with men who order strikes and participate in them without a grievance. He said he never expected to order a strike; that the doors of railroad officials had never been closed to him when the men of his organization had a grievance and that reasonable men could always settle their controversies by arbitration.
 Mir. Arthur denied that there was a movement on food to federate all railroad mems organizations. The meeting in Montgomery, he said. was purely for fraS ternal intercourse.

CAT is PET OF PRISONERS.
staneh Friend Of the convicts 4,
Michigan City.

Tho pet of the prisoners at the Indi-
ana State Prison at Michigan City is a
gray cat. said to be the largest animal
of the kind in the state, 1t weighs
twenty-five pounds, is nine years old
and has been inside the big walls since
1t was kitten. All over the big insti-
tuition 1t is known as Tige.
Warden Reid who values the animal
very highly, says that Tige has queer
fondness for the prisoners. one OF
whom claims to be Its master and from
whom 1t receives all kinds of attention
The cat makes UP with very few OF
the ofhcers, allows no familiarities on
tho part of strangers or visitors, but in
prisoner and gets it.
In its early days 1t was the cats GUS
tom to visit the dollhouse and to make
friendly calls along the ranges, rubbing
Its fur at each grated door and singing
its little song as if 1t wished to purr
out its sympathy for the confined. But
there came time when its place was
usurped by another OF Its kind and this
resulted in the old haunts being aban-
doned. This was brought about by the
dollhouse keeper bringing to his abode
a kitten and the dislike occasioned by
the newcomer has been unrelenting.
Tige may now be seen about the yard.
coming and going without hindrance.
Most of the time 1t stays about the
pump house, where its master holds
sway and where no other feline may
intrude and get away without fight.
