THE CAT CAME BACK.
But II Was Not at Home In the coun.
try for Awhile.

The kitten that the little city girl
had brought back from the country
with her last fall had grown to be a
big, beautiful cat when the time came
to go to the mountains again, SO he
was placed In basket and carried to
the train, the first time since his baby.

floor of the apartment house. There
was little surprise and good deal OF
amusement, therefore. at the cats
ideas Of nature, gained, as they had
been, by close inspection of fire es-
capes and adjacent brick walls, with
an occasional glimpse of an asphalt
pavement. For the first three or four
days 1t was impossible to keep pussy
on the ground floor. It would run to
the top of the big farmhouse and peer
out of the window whenever 1t was re.
leased on the veranda. Gradually, how
ever, 1t became accustomed to life on
the ground level, and in a week or SO
timidly ventured outdoors by itself.
Then 1t was quickly found that its
natural instincts had not been affect
ed by city life, for 1t soon became a
terror to song birds, much to the
disgust of its little mistress, who is
torn with grief between her
love for the cat and for the brides
that fell victims of its cunning. Now
that pussy has taken to sleeping out
of doors 1t is serious problem wheth.

RAIN WAS SURE TO COME.
Farmer Sc Certain That He Was
Rather Uaduly Impressive.

A New York man who had been
summering ia the White mountains,
on his return to town. told Of an en-
counter with New Hamp shire farm.
er. 1t was late in Septembe., and It
was almost time for the equinox, or
line storm" as the natives call It,.
4 he city man was planning a certain
trip on his motor cycle, but the morn
ing on which he had been intending to
start was so gray and overcast that
he felt some hesitation about setting
out. He was trying to persuade him
self out OF this feeling, even though
his better Judgment was against him.
The mountains were yelled In wreaths
OF mist and cloud that had settled
down almost to their bases. He was
getting his wheel ready when one Of
the nearby farmers came up and
leaned over the fence, watching him.
Il spose we don't mind gettin' some
wet" he finally insinuated. "Oh, !
don't believe it's going to RAIN" an
swered the optimist, jauntily. 1T
locks a bit threatening, but I think It
will clear up by noon, 80 I'm going to
start Just the same" The farmer was
silent a moment. then he pointed SOL
EMMY toward the clouds, which had
entirely shut out from view the mighty
mountain four miles away. Young
man." he said impressively as he
pointed. Look thar. When the cloud
settles down over Kearsarge, God
Almighty couldn't stop the rain!"

WORLDS BIGGEST CATASTROPHE
It Is the Plague Epidemic Now on In
india.

The greatest catastrophe the world
has ever known is in progress at this
present moment and the world recks
little or nothing of It.
This is the plague epidemic in India,
which has now been raging for more
than II years, and which, so far from
showing any tendency to die out.
Neeps steadily increasing In intensity
Thus. during the six weeks ending
May II last, 1882 persons persisted
from 1t, or at the rate of over $4,000
deaths a week.
Nothing approaching the appalling
horror represented by these figures
has ever been recorded before. The
nearest to 1t was in 1905, when, dur.
ing the last week In March, the cpl.
demic was responsible for STOP
deaths.
No pestilence Of ancient or modern
times of which we have any knowl.
edge has slain SO many millions of
people as has this one, and the end OF
which, mind, is not yet.
The Great Plague" OF London, for
example, about which everybody has
heard, killed at the outside some go.
900 people In seven months, or about
as many as are dying weekly in India
from disease which is identical with
1t in every respect.
The BLACK Death" is said to have
slain one-third Of the then population
of England--say 100000 persons;
but this is doubtful Even admitting
the correctness Of the estimate, how.
ever, the mortality Of the present cpl.
demic In India has already more than
doubled this huge total.
What will be the end no man can
foresee or venture to forecast. 1t may
be that all that has gone before, and
all that Is happening now, inexpres-
sibly awful though 1t is, is but the
prelude of worse to follow.-Pearson

the defense seemed to be to establish
the fact that Lille Davis had borne

witnesses in that direction.
