CAT AND RAT ARE cRoNIES
Eat, Sleep AMI Play Tosether-Pussy
Defends Her Proteee from
Active Enemies.

An intimate friendship between a
pet white rat and big cat Is report
ed by correspondent of St Nicholas.
When the white rat was about two
months old by accident a stray cat
was allowed to enter the room. II was
Immediately expected that pussy
would devour the rat.
But there was great surprise when
the rat instead of showing fright and
running away ran toward the cat and
nestled itself under the cats warm
breast. The cat is apparently as fond
of this white rat as she would be of
her own kittens.
When they are fed they are given
pieces of meat cut In strings. Each
one gets hold of string at either end
and they try to see which can eat the
most of It. The cat usually wins be-
cause she is the stronger.
If the white rat is missing the cat
hunts first In the wicker basket in
which they sleep together and then In
every nook and corner and sometimes
in the cellar or attic until she finds
the rat.
Pussy and the white rat have been
together now for little over a year,
and the cat is thoroughly responsible
for this. for when stray cats come
around to the back door she jumps out
OF her corner, shows fight and chases
them.

CHIEF CONSOLIDATED.

Salt Lake CITY, Utah-The city of
Eureka, Utah, the center of the Tintlc
district, has decided by ordinance ex-
elusive ownership of all the mineral
rights beneath the city to the Chief
Consolidated company, the consldera-
tion being in the vicinity OF $4,000.
II never was thought that there was
much in mineral way beneath the
city, but Walter Fitch, general man
ager of the Chief demonstrated that
there was. and the result has been
decided windfall to the town of Eure-
ka, while the Chief company acquires
mineral rights of great Importance.
The company now owns 400 acres OF
mineral territory i'm the heart of the
Tintic district. there being 1000 feet
along the mineralized zone within its
property boundary lines.
Splendid results are attending the
work i'm the Chief at depth. On the
1,GOO level, the company has drifted
for $50 feet i'm search of the ore zone,
and branch drift recently was start
cd from this to get i'm under the ore
known to exist on the 1,400 level.
Although the face of this branch is
hardly within supposed striking dis
lance OF the zone, II has broken into a
heavily minerallzed country the breast
being filled with iron and manganese.
which is a decidedly healthy sign in
Tintic. 1t is thought certain that this
drift will be in ore by the first of the
year.
The management anticipates shortly
TO resume shaft sinking, and the main
shaft will be sent from the 1875 level
to the 1900 where station will be
cut and exploring started at that
depth. Sinking has been neglected for
the past few months on account OF the
limited hosting capacity, the officials
desiring to push the work on the 1000
and upper levels. During the month
of November, the Chief Consolidated
company shipped ore of a net vaiua-
ton of $15,01S.

The victim of a jealous lover, Rosa
Paul. % years old, was attacked by
him with a razor yesterday afternoon
in her. room at 241a West Third South
street and cut in ten different places
about the face and back. She is now
patient at the L. d. S. hospital and has
good chances to recover.
The assault was made by DOminiCk
Albanese, whom she is said to have re
tected for another man. Albanese en-
countered her on the street, and blow
ing her TO the room pleaded to be taken
back. When she turned a deaf ear TO
his entreaties he drew 6 razor and prob
ably would have been killed but for the
timely arrival OF deputies, who ran TO
her aid.
It so happened that Deputy Sheriff
Jack Corliss. County Jailer Jack Forbes
and Patrolman Jack Brown We're pass

heard the wOman's screams and lost no
time in rushing up the stairs. When
placed under arrest the prisoner still

the woman. and declared that upon his
release from Jail he would take pains
to find the man who had srpplanted
him in her affections and administer to
him the same dose. He is charged with
murderous assault, and held IN the

RIO GRANDE DEPOT
WALLS GOING UP
Beautiful and Imposing StruC-
ture Will Be Rooted
Over by Oct. |.

1t is expected that by October 1 the
roof will have been placed on the new
Denver & Rio Grande depot. Work has
been somewhat delayed on account OF the
nOn-arrival Of marble, which cOmpOses
most of the plans for the walls for the
first story Word has been received that
the marble will be here by the middle OF
next week and as soon as this is placed
the work I'D to the second StOcy can be
rapidly completed. The top of the first
floot and the second floor are largely OF
terra Gotta and there is plenty OF that
material on the ground.
About seventy-five men are now en-
gagged on the work about the depot and
The long tunnel south of the building
which is being constructed for carrying
electric wires, etc. to the depot power
house is nearly finished. This tunnel is
several hundred feet long, and eXcava-
lions have been made for the power
house. The building is to be lighted and
heated BY its own electric plant. The
mower house will not be a large structure,
but it will be very neat and in architecture
will conform to the plan for the depot.
Work on the power house VIII be com
menced- shortly. On the depot building
the steel on the wings has been placed
for the second story
J. 2. S. Morgan, one Of the engineers
here, representing the Chicago firm
which has the general contract, stated
Yesterday that the most difficult part Of
the exterior construction is over. It Is
only a question now Of getting material
promptly to push the work rapidly He
expects the building to be completed, as
far as the exterior work is concerned, by
October /. THE longest job Will be the
interior finishing" he said THE depot
is to be finely finished and the work is
slow"
Work is also progressing in the depot
yards in laying tracks. The grades have all
been established and hundreds of loads
Of gravel have been hauled in and dis
trfbuted. Seven permanent tracks are be
ing laid The crew of foreigners who have
been working at this yesterday went on
strike for increased pay and the work
was delayed. 1t is said that other men
will be employed Monday morning. The
tracks are being laid i'm a hurry to aC-
commodate the trains that will bring visit
ors here for the Grand Army enCamp-
ment. Side tracks for that occasion were
necessary. and. 10 avoid extra work, the
tracks that are now being laid are to be
permanent.

for substantial and handsome new busi-
ness structures.
The development of the west side of
the city is shown in the building of dozens
of large warehouses, and more particu-
larly in the construction Of new depots
for the oregon Short Line and Salt Lake
Route railways and the Denver & Rio
Grande railroad. The union depot for the
Oregon Short Line and the Salt Lake
Route wifi be opened during g. A. K.
week Though It will not be quite com
pleted. the building will be thrown open
to the G. A r. crowds ana the finishing
touches put on as rapidly as possible.
The Rio Grande depot will be the Salt
Lake station for the Denver & Rio Grande
and the Western Pacific railroads. II
will probably be opened early in the
spring.
One Of the most important phases Of
the building operations in Salt Lake is
the building Of homes and apartment
houses in all parts Of the city. This
building activity is confined to no section
of the city. From Poplar Grove to Fed
eral Heights the streets are lined with
new homes. new apartment houses and
new stores. In the other direction the
building activity is apparent from Warm
Springs to Wandamere, and there are
diagona! directions that may be taken
with the same evidence of progress And
this is only the beginning.
