CATS SlNLEADvlLLE
BY NO MEANS A cArLEss TOWN
Prevalent False Report in the East
Corrected by leadville
Newspaper.

An article in a recent number OF a
Toronto paper under the caption OF
'Leadyille, the CatlesS Town." seems
to convey the impression that our city
is wanting in that common article OF
household effects, says the Leadville
Herald Democrat. AS the eastern Pc
riodical obtained its information from
Denver man no great fault perhaps
can be attached to the statement
1t appears that a New York shoe
house salesman had trouble in obtain
ing his nights rest in a certain hotel
in Denver a short time ago, and regis
tered a complaint the next morning
with the chief clerk "A cat in the al
ley across the street kept me awake,
sax| the salesman. You'll either have
to klarantee that the cats will have TO
be kept out of that alley tonight or
change my room. l must have sleep
or | cannot work"
The clerk smiled and replied that
it was the first complaint OF the kind
he had ever had there, and also that
there was comparatively few cats i'll
Denver, but that if he would hive abso-
lutely without any chance OF being
wakened by cats he would have to
move up to Leadville. 'Leadville?
Why?" asked the commercial man.
Because" replied the clerk, Lead
vile has no cats. They can not live
there Too much altitude, as We say
around here"
The paper then summarizes that
such is the case, and that Leadville
has not, probably, single cat. The
paper further adds that catA have been
many times taken to Leadville, but in
yariably succumbed to the effects OF
the high altitude. The writer stated
that all cats taken to Leadyllle have
died of form of pneumonia, and per
sons living in Leadville will be sur
prised to learn that the above has
passed muster for genuine.
For the information OF our erring
salesman and Ananias hotel clerk il
may be stated that the good old domes-
tic animal, the cat lives and thrives i'll
the city of Leadviile, notwithstanding
the altitude. There is as great va
riety of feline in Leadville as in any
other part of the Union. 1t has never
been stated here that when poor old
pussy takes its departure that its exit
into another sphere has been caused
by pneumonia. We have the cream OF
the medical profession here, but they
have never undertaken to diagnose cat
diseases In addition to our hay
ing good quota of cats W can also
boast of good supply of the animals
whose company the cat seeks. namely
mice and rats. The former predom1-
nate while the latter generally known
here as the mountain rat is not SO nu,
merous as in the lower attitudes We
have enough, however. to make their
company disagreeable were it not for
the presence of pusSy We have cats
here which would surprise people in
the lower attitudes Some attain the
age Of fifteen years, while some equal
in size the jack rabbit. In fact nearly
every householder has from one to
three OF this favorite animal. A house
in Leadville would be sadly wanting

ence of the cat. Yes, Leadville has

CHAPTER XIV.
The Face That Looked Into Joan's


The chamber to which the Duchess
Joan was conducted by her hostess
had evidently been carefully prepar-
ed for her reception. 1t was large,
low room, with a vaulted roof of cary
en- wood The work was OF great
merit and evidently old. A table with
little prie-Dieu stood in the corner.
screened by curtain which ran on
brazen rod. A Roman Breviary lay
on yelvet-covered table before the
crucifx. Joan lifted it up and her
eyes fell on the words: by a woman
he overeame, By woman he was
overcome. A woman was once his
weapon. A woman is now become the
instrument of his defeat. He tindeth
that the weak vessel cannot be
broken"
Nor shall it, said Joan, looking
at the cross before her, "by the
strength of Mary the Mother, the weak
vessel shall not be broken!"
AS she stopped to blow out the last
candle, motto on the stem caught
her eye. Joan took the candle out OF
it's socket and read the inscription
Noiu bs "OiU-
"Da pacem, Domino, in diebus nos
iris"
1t was her own scroll, the motto of
the reigning dukes of Hohenstein-a
strange one, doubtless, to be that OF
fighting race but. nevertheless, her
fathers and her own.
What did her fathers motto, the
device Of her house, upon this Baltic
island, far from the highlands OF
kernsberg? Had these wastes once
belonged to men of her race? And
this woman. who SO regally played the
mistress of this strange hermitage,
who was she?
And as Joan Of Hohenstein blew out
the candle she unused in her heart
concerning these things.
The Duchess Joan slept soundly, her
dark, boyish head pillowed on the
full rounded curves of an arm thrown
behind her. On the little velvet
belt and it's dependent sword, a faith
full companion in its sheath of plain
black leather. Under her pillow, and
within instant reach of her right hand.
was her fathers dagger.
Ia their chamber in the wing which
looks toward the north the three cap
tains lay wrapped in their mantles,
Jorian and Boris answering each other
nasally, in alternate trumpet blasts,
like Alp calling to Alp. Werner Won
Orseln alone could not sleep, and
after he had sworn and kicked his
noisy companions in the ribs till he
was weary OF the task, he rose and
went to the window to cast open the
lattice. The air within felt thick and
hot. AS Werner set his face to the
opening quick flashes Of summer light
ming famed alternately white and lilac
across the horizon, and he felt the
spit of hailstones in his face, driving
level like SO many musket balls when
the infantry fires by platoons.
Joan turned over on her bed, murmur-
ing uneasily in her sleep. A white
face, which for a quarter of an hour
had been bent down to her dark head
as it lay on the pillow, was suddenly
retracted into the darkness at the
girls slight movement.
Again, apparently reassured, the
shadowy visage approached as the
young duchess lay without further
motion. Suddenly, and for no appar-
ent reason, Joan's eyes opened, and
she found herself looking with be-
wilderment into face that bent
down upon her, white face which
somehaw seemed To hang SnSnanded

in the dark above her. The features
were lit up by the pulsing lightning
which shone in the wild eyes and gilt
tered on knifeblade about the han
die of which were clenched the tense
fingers of hand equally detached.
In a moment Joan's right hand had
grusped the dagger under her pillow.
Her left shooting upward, closed on
the arm which held the threatening
steel Almost without rising from her
bed she projected herself upon her
enemy, and she felt her fingers sink
deep in the soft curves of a woman's
throat.
Then a shrek, long and terrible,
inhuman and threatening, rang
through the house. AS Joan overbore
her assailant upon the floor. the door
opened, and glancing upward she saw
