The attention Of passersby was first
attracted to the unusual spectacle OF a
d long, lean rat coolly skipping over
boxes OF oranges, lemons, etc, in the
window of the store and deliberately
carrying apples one by one to some Sc
Guided spot behind the shelves. The cat
made no effort whatever to catch the
rat, though it made spasmodic bluffs
by natural force Of instinct, creeping
stealthly toward the rat, as though to
pounce upon it, only to lie down lazily
and look ut the rodent.
Six successive apples were taken from
under the nose OF the eat before the lat
ter finally pumped itself in the box OF
apples which the rat was decimating by
repeated visits. Even this did not faze
the rat, which came boldly up to the
cat and actually made move as If to
take an apple from beneath it. The cat
made hasty movement as though 70

That some Of Omaha's thoroughfares are
set apart for special purposes seemed not
at all clear to Eugene jackson, a coal
driver. In fact all streets looked alike to
him until the police judge specifically
showed him that certain streets were not to
be used by drivers OF heavy wagons. As II
was Jackson's first offence a fine OF 81 and
costs was imposed by Judge Crawford.
James Ross and George Fulton were both
fined 81 and costs for being drunk and sus-
