An Island Of black Cats.

One Of the queerest corners of the
earth is Chatham island, off the coast
of Ecuador. This island lies 900 miles
west of Guayaquil, and the equator
runs directly through it. 1t abounds
in cats, every one of which is black.
These animals live In the crevices Of
the lava foundation near the coast and
subsist by catching fish and crabs in
stead of rats and mice. Other animals
found on this island are horses, cattle,
dogs. goats and chickens, all Of which
are perfectly wild.

Mr. Brainerd IS probably better known
to the community under the name of
Baumgras. He changed his name to
that OF Brainerd-his mothers name be-
fore marriage-by permission Of the Su-
preme Court of the District. His broth
ers had taken the mothers name even
before the fathers death. which occur
red few months ago, but Mr. Brainerd,
more careful Of his fathers feelings in
the matter, deferred the change until
the latter's demise. Mr.. Brainerd' s
father was the late Peter Baumgras,
well known as a talented portrait and
landscape painter.
Mr.. Brainerd was born in washington
and attended school here at the Ener-
son Institute in Fourteenth Street. When
the family removed to Chicago, he COM
pleted his education there, and subse-
quently engaged in business IN the
Windy City, and for some time was a
member of the Chicago board of trade.

Kinkaid Bill Will Release Nine Million
Acres of Prairie in That
Portion of State.

Nine million acres of land in north
western Nebraska will be taken up by
settlers as a result of the Kinkaid bill,
which President Roosevelt signed on the
last day of Congress. Although the
measure affects no State but Nebraska,
II is Of especial Importance to that State
and will result in a marked increase in
the population of the land in north'
valuation of property.
The measure provides that $40 acres.
or one section of land. may be taken
under the homestead laws. Formerly
only 100 acres could be taken. AS the
land in northwestern Nebraska is suit
able chiefly for grazing purposes, il was
impossible for a settler 10 make living
on one-fourth section. With $40 acres
at his disposal a homesteader can keep
enough cattle or sheep on his own land
TO make II worth while for him to take
land in that part of the State.
Sixty days after April IS the Nebras-
ka land will be open for settlement
under the provisions of the new law
and II is believed by Representative
Kinkaid that all the Government land In
Nebraska will be entered under the new
act before next fall. Nebraska lands
which are capable Of irrigation may be
set aside by the Secretary Of the In
terror under the reclamation act, and as
most of the irrigable land has already
been taken up the new law VIII apply
TO grazing land only.
The Rosebud Agency in South Dakota
which will be opened under an act just
passed. is Immediately north Of the Ne
braska land which is to be opened. anC
a great rush of settlers Is expected into
the two States within the next six
