SOUVENIR FANATICS.
Nothing Is Safe From Those Afflicted
With the Craze.

WIN the NFSZc.
In these enlightened days anything
from the limb of tree to a table nap
kin is liable to be carried away as a
souvenir.
A western girl with well defined
case of the souvenir habit, sojourning
in New York. was dining at fashion

favor Of the cunning pewter cream

piled, calmly carried one away in her

A Pittsburg bachelor, wandering into
a restaurant, came upon a friend Just
seating himself with two ladies'. The
bachelor was invited to join the party,
did so, and at the end Of the luncheon
insisted upon paying the costs. The
bill being wrong, he went to the cash
iers desk to personally adjust the dis
crepancy, where he was informed that
the extra charges were for spoons
which the ladies had put in their hand
bags. Aud that was the first time he
had ever met them!
Upon the occasion of the presenta-
ton Of handsome silver service by

BUY SEATS EARLY
FOR KUBEuK's CONCERT

| Only the leading compositions to be
played at the Kubelik recital have been
named to Manager Adams by cable
and what the pianist and vocalist will
render is not known but the public
understands, of course, that they will
| be given something out of the ordi-
nary. The appetite of the lovers Of
music has been whetted to a keen edge
| by the mere announcement that the
greatest living violinist and his com
pany will be here and they are satisfied
with everything that goes with that
announcement.
The question of the time of the APP
pearance of Kubelik is still unsettled
and it will not, be answered until the
Mariana is signalled by the lookout at
Diamond Head. It will be easy enough
for a layman to figure it out from that
moment for the concert is to be given
three hours after her arrival at the
| dock and it is usually estimated that
steamer from the mainland is dock
| ed two hours after being signalIed.
| There is a belief that she will arrive
so that there will be an evening in
stead of a daylight concert in which
case there is a question of the capacity
| of the Opera House being large enough
to hold the people who would go to
hear ,Kubelik The tickets are selling
well, far better than Mr.. Adams hoped

is given there will be a good house

out, and it led to the prosecution of

Manion had submitted to Mccoy an
expense voucher for SIG. for Mccoy S
signature, the money called for really
to be payment for photographing the
documents taken from Cairns safe, but
the voucher was made to read as ex-

the basis for the charge for falsifcs-

MASCOT CAT IS
WASTING LIVES
Transport Crooks Pet Has
Picture Perpetuated on
POstaIS.

Nuts is the mascot of the United
States Army transport Crook, anC
"Nuts' is a cat, young cat, only
eight months old, but one of great ex
perience and marvellous intelligence
1t seems that the sympathy and af-
lection that the gentle but sagacious
feline receives from so great q number
of people as is usually found aboard
a transport have endowed this partieu-
lar cat with almost human intelligence
Nuts was born in Japan, of
American parents, said parents having
immigrated as. maseots of other trans
ports. He inherited his parents fond
ness for the sea, and one day in Maya
saki he rubbed against a sailor s leg
and was taken aboard the Crook and
fed and petted.
A few trips ago, when the Crook and
the Buford happened to be in port to-
gether, some of the boys Of the Bu-
ford stole ''Nuts,' and great was the
wrath of the Crook men, who were pa
tient, and later organized a posse and.
stole him back. 1t was FIVE months ago
that the Buford stole him, and in Jan
uary that the Crook boys recovered
him.
On the last Far Eastern trip of the
Crook, going from Guam to Manila,
ON March l6, Nuts" fell down a.
hatch, during the severe rolling OF. the
vessel, and fractured his starboard
fore leg. The limb was set by DR.. w.
j. Stokes, artillery veterinary.
When the Crook reached Manila,
Nuts" whose leg was still in a
plaster east, fell overheard while the
ship was docking. He swan for the
wharf, where a yeoman, who had rush
ed to the scene and got down on a
stringer, fshed him out by the scruff
of his neck.
''Nuts' IS all right again now and
may be seen at home aboard the Crook,
making himself agreeable and waiting
for further adventure. He is a great
favorite with the children of military
families travelling to and fro, and is
sometimes too well taken care of. He
is fed so many different things that
frequently the shin s surgeon has to be
called to treat him for Indigestion.
Nuts has his picture on hundreds
of postal cards all over the world. The
picture was taken when his leg was in
the plaster cast. He lies stretched
comfortably on an ordinary pillow, his
head resting on sofa cushion, the
plaster east very much in evidence, and
a well-cared- for expression on his coun-
tenance.
t.Nuts' receives more attention than
anybody else on the Crook. 4e
He is called "Nuts'' because he has
the crazy faculty of counting misad-.
venture No other cat would break a
leg falling down hatch, and no other
cat would fall overheard. The boys
say he has so much human intelligence
that he can't take care of himself as
a eat should, but has already thrown
away five or six of his lives in sheer
happy go-luekiness.
