A Cat That Fislaed.

A lady in New York state had a
large cat which had three kittens near
ly half grown. She was noticed feed
Ing them On some perch and sunfish
every day. They watched her and
found she caught them herself in q
pond which was shallow. The cat
would crouch down near the water,
and when a fish would come within Its
reach 1t would spring upon it and
rarely miss landing 1t In its mouth.
When she came In with q meal she
laid 1t before one Of the young eats.
The others must wait quietly while
the first was eating. and when it had
eaten its share she placed it In front
OF another. and then the third. This
performance never varied and was re-
peated every day as long as the fish
were In season.

husband was SO called not because he
was addicted to this peculiar form Of

these holes in new furniture to give

A Cynical Critics Cold Analysis OF

a Cynical Critics Cold Analysis OF
LongfeIIow's Description.
Determine how fast, asks Professor
Greenhll, Hawatha can run from the
following data:
Strong of arm was Iiiawatha.
He could shoot ten arrows upward,
And the tenth had left the bowstring
Ere the first to earth had fallen.
Swift Of foot was Hiawatha.
He could shoot an arrow from him
And run forward with such swiftness
That the arrow fell behind him.
Neglecting the resistance Of the air
and granting that Hiawatha could
shoot one arrow q second, the solution
Is as follows:
The time Of flight of the arrows shot
upward must have been nine seconds.
Therefore the velocity with which they
were shot, being equal to the time null
tiplied into half the value Of the con-
Now, in shooting an arrow from him.
Hiawatha, to obtain the farthest flight,
would let fly at an angle of forty-five
degrees, and by simple trigonomet-
rical calculation we therefore arrive at
the fact that the horizontal velocity Of
the arrow would be rather less than IA
feet a second and would In fact be 1902
feet second, or seventy miles an hour.
Hiawatha would therefore have to run
faster than this. Could he do it on q
sprint2
Again having recourse to calculation.
we find that an arrow shot at IA feet
a second would fly PIG yards. or near
ly furlong. Hiawatha would run
that distance in about seven seconds,
so that he would be able to give tho
present holder Of the record some 145
yards start-London Post

BOUND OVER
TO GRAND JURY
Bond of $1,000 is Furnished
by Friends.
FACES SERIOUS CHARGE
That of Setting Fire to His
Own Livery Barn.
The Investigation Into Cause Of the
Fire was Started by Company
Which Insured the Building.

Chauncey Godfrey the Agosta liy-
eryman charged with arson was Civ
en- preliminary hearing before May
or Louis Hathaway, "Wednesday after
noon. After the prosecution had sub
mitted its testimony, Grant T.. Nous
er, attorney for Godfrey, announced
that his client waived examination.
Mayor Hathaway bound Godfrey over
to the Grand Jury on bond OF $1,000.
The bond was signed at once and
Godfrey was released.
Godfrey was arrested Saturday on
an affidavit filed with Mayor HATH
away by deputy state fire marshal
1t is charged that he set fire to his
livery barn at Agosta, about two
weeks ago. An investigation into the
cause of the fire was first started by
the company which carried the insur-
ance on Godfrey S barn.
AT the opening OF the preliminary
hearing Mr.. Mouser as attorney for
the defense, made motion to have

the case taken from the hands of
Mayor Hathaway. The law provides
he said, that in village which has
no fire department, the mayor must.
at the request of the state fire
marshall personally conduct an inves-
tigation of any suspicious fire.
Mayor Hathaway, the attorney said
had made such an investigation In
the Godfrey case. For that reason,
Hathaway was necessarily a witness
for the state, and the defense believed
that he could not rightly sit in the
case. The court over-ruled the mo-
ton, however, and the hearing pro-
ceeded.
The prosecution bases its charges
against Godfrey on'purely circumstan-
tial evidence. About II o'clock on the
night of the fire, ii was shown God
frey informed men at the barn that he
was going to drive travelling man
to Marion. The prosecution alleges
that instead of doing this, he drove
his horses out in field near Agosta.
One Agosta man testified that he
was bothered with his heart on the
night of he fire and he went out on
the street to get fresh air. About
midnight, he met man whom he
thinks was Godfrey. He would not
swear that it really was Godfrey, how
ever. Tracks made by a carriage and
horses hoofs were found in the field
near Agosta, where the prosecution
claims that Godfrey went. No one.
however, saw Godfrey near the field
or driving an the direction of It.
This practically completed the evil
dence for the prosecution. After it
was all in, Mr.. Mouser said that he
would introduce no evidence but that
his client would waive examination.
The case will be up before the
grand jury which will meet about
May 13.
