for shooting one of :. AntOine's tur-

placed in one of the front rooms for
its decorative value. but instead of
decorating front room the bird was
stuffed and slipped INTO the oven.

Walter Hard is again suffering
from mental anguish over the loss of
his beloved cat, which strolled away
from it's protective wing about two
weeks ago. Walter had nearly mast
cred the gloomy emotion, when some
thoughtless individual stepped into
the Palace Buffet Tuesday afternoon
at four O'Clock and cruelty reminded
the proprietor that the beautifully
stripped yellow cat, with Just a touch
of mango and a few teas, was sadly
missing. The sorry was overwhelm-
ing, and Walter, with Il heaving bo-
som, some currency and a check
book, left his place OF business and al
once called force of volunteers to
follow him-and the search was insti-
tuted. The commander of the party
realizing. rs did Napoleon, that ar
mics need the best of food and cheer
in order to get the greatest possible
efficiency, had a scout slip down to
COleman's restaurant and order the
best to be had for fifteen husky and
purpOse-bent followers. Every place
in town was ransacked for the lost
fea-bitten cat, and to assist in sOlv-
ing the mystery Il reward Of $50 was
offered for the return Of the animal.
After the banquet the search was re-
sumed, and the work continued until
after midnight, but although all the
beers and empty cases in town were
lifted, neither hair nor hide of the pet
could be found.
