TALE OF A RAT
AND OF THE E. ORANGE CAT
THAT ADOPTED IT.
Queer Freak of Sid, Former DESTROYER
of Observation-Disclosures Say It Is
No Nature Fake.

A young tramp cat named Sid that
generally makes its horne In the stable
of John English, a caterer, In Ashland
avenue, near Main street, East Orange
started Saturday to bring up a small rat.
together with her five kittens. The rodent
was still with the kittens until this morn
ing, when Sid removed her young to a
pile of lumber in the stable to hide the
kittens and rat away from teasing chill
dren. 1t is believed the rat is now nest
ling in an obscure section of the lumber
pile.
On Saturday Thomas English. who il in
charge of the string of horses al the
stable, caught the rat as 1t was tramping
across the floor near the stalls. He figured
thai 1t would make a good meal for Sid
and carried 1t to the cat. who was caring
for the kittens in n box stall In the rear.
Sid looked the rat over, and very much
to eyerybody's surprise picked it up with
great care and carried it back among the
kittens. The rat made itself at home i'm
m%ediately. All during the day Sid con-
tinued his solicitious attentions to his
strange protege.
taken away from the kittens and laid out
on the stable floor. Sid immediately
picked it up and carried 1t back to its
straw bed. This maneuver was repeated
several times during the day, but Sid al
ways gently took back her little charge.
AT night the rat slept in the centre of the
nest with the kittens nestled up close.
while Sid kept a watch over all.
What first surprised h drivers was
the way Sid treated the rat at the start.
Before Sid came up to the stable he would
crawl along the beams in the cellar of
the bakery in Main street and rout out
the rodents. He rode up to the stable with
one of the drivers about eight months ago
and made his home about the barn, his
chief amusement being killing rats.
Sid is a great favorite with the fremen
stationed at headquarters, located next
to the rear section of the stable, and the
men have been viewing with interest the
present strange phenomenon, which all
agree is no nature fake.
