The Kitten VS.. the Mouse.
F'rom Rarper':s MagaZIne.

The most complete piece of expert
mental work bearing upon the subject
of the instructive enmity of cats and
mice is that of Professor Yerkcs and
Mr.. Bloomfield. These Investigators,
working Jointly in the Harvard psych-
illogical laboratory, made a test of the
question. "Do kittens iI:stinctively kill
mice?" This question had been am
swered in the negative about three
worked in the same laboratory. DIR.
Berry reached the conclusion that
cats are credited with more instincts
thar they really possess. 1t Is COM
monty reported that they have an in-
stinctive liking for mice. and that mice
nave an instructive fear OF cats. 1t
is supposed that the odor of a mouse
will arouse Il cat. and that the odor
Of a cat will brighten a mouse. My ex-
periments tend to show that this belief
Is not in harmony with the facts. When
cats over five months old were taken
into the room where mice were kept
they did not show the least sign of ex-
element. A cat would even allow a
mouse to perch upon it's back without
attempting to injure it. Nor did the
mice show any fear of the cat. have
seen a mouse smell at the nose of a
cat without showing any sign of fear"
+. 1t was not until the Manx kittens
had seen the mother cat catch n kill
the mice and had eaten of the prey
that they learned to do likewise. Ac-
cording to DR.. Berry, it is by imita-
ton hat the average cat learns to kill
and eat mice.
Professor Yerkes and Mr.. Bloomfield
made a much more extensive test upon
the more common varieties of cats.
They worked with eight kittens belong
ing to two separate filters. The ami
mails were brought up by hand and
were kept free from the influence of
older cats. They tested the kittens
with mice much more often and more
systematically than did DIR. Berry.
When first tested the kittens We're too
young and undeveloped to notice the
mice. The instinct was yet dor
mant.' In succeeding tests 1t became
perfectly clear that as 70 as the kit
tens reached the proper age-as soon
as the instinct "ripened,' as Professor
William James has expressed it-the
congenital nod Of response appeared.
The authors describe in a very clear
and interesting way the behavior Of
one OF the kittens in one Of the tests:
mo Z was attracted by the

nose. He then left 1t. After 12 min

BIG COMMISSIONS PAID FOR
SALE OF SHIPS IN MAR TIME

During the Russo-Japanese war
many ships were sold to the Russian
government and the commissions paid
We're stupendous. For instance, four
Atlantic liners We're offered to the gov
eminent for $1,000, 900 sterling, and the
commission payable to the brok er was
to be S per cent. and to the Russian
ad'nirals. who were negotiating the

however. fell through. owing to a dis
pute as to the division of the spoil.
contrasts I'm Il marked degree with the
action of Il well Known Spanish ship
owner in a somewhat. similar transact
ton. On behalf nf the Spanish gov
eminent. during the Spanish-Anlerican
war. he arranged to purchase two large
German liners for about 400. 900
ponds. The vessels were brought to
his notice by a British ship broker, but
the Spanish owner decided to carry the
business through direct with the rep
representatives OF the German COM
pany.
He first arranged that the broker
was to be protected for his commits
sion. which was fixed at 2 per cent. and
he then asked the German representa-
tives what commission lie was to have
for himself. The representatives of the
German mpa at once replied "12..
900 pounds" Then said the Spanish
owner. las this is Il transaction for the
benefit of my country. I refuse to take
advantage of my position, and therefore
I will pay you the purchase prices. less

commission. Some years ago a Ger

living thing. He put her to little tests to try the genuineness of her feeling. He threw off his restraint and led her back to the scenes of their youth When dinner ended she was leaning close, her eyes misty with tears, and 8 faraway look in them that told of memories more vivid and allur1ng than all the splendors of her palace. Stuart drew a breath of conscious tr1- umph, and his figure suddenly grew tense with a desperate resolution. But only for moment.
 He frowned. looked at his watch and rose abruptly
 ''I must be going, Man, he said with sudden coIdneSS.
 "Why, Jfm,'' she protested, its only 10 o'clock I won't hear of such a thing
 'sYes, I must,'' he persisted. I've an important case tomorrow I must work tonight
 'You shall not gor' Nan cried. 'rve waited nine years for this one even ing's chat with you. Come into the music room. sit down and brood as long as you like. I've planned to charm you with an old accomplish ment of mine tonight"
 She led him to rich couch, piled the pillows high, made him snug, drew 8 harp near the other end and began to tune it's strings.
 Stuart gazed at the paintings on the ceiling and in moment was lost in visions of the future his excited fancy began to weave.
 A voice whispered:
 Unless you are q coward, grasp the power that is yours by divine right of nature. why should you walk while pygmies ride? Why should you lag behind the age in this fierce struggle for supremacy The woman who sits before you is yours if you only dare to tear her from the man who holds her by the fiction of dying customsr'
 He felt his heart throb as another voice within cried: |.
 "Yet why should I, an heir to i'm mortality, whose will can shape a world, why should I live a beast of prey with my hand against every man?'
 The answer was the memory Of dirty finger nails closing on his throat while a mob of bowling fools surged over his body and cursed him for trying to save them from themselves. Again he heard woman's voice as she held his head close, whispering:
 i've something to say to you, Jim!'
 His lips tightened@ with sudden de cision. The golden gates of the for bfdden land swung open and his soul entered.

CHAPTER XII.
An Aftermatt-confession


 TNHE day following Bivens' offer
 to Stuart was made memorable
 by a sinister event ir Union
 square. A mass meeting of the unemployed had been called to protest against their wrongs and par ticularIy to denounce the men who had advanced the price of bread by creat- ing a corner in wheat
 On his way down town Stuart read with astonishment that Dr. Woodman would preside over this gathering. He determined to go. As he hurried through the routine work of his office giving his orders for the day, he received a telephone call from Nan, asking him to accompany her to this meeting.
 1T don't think you ought to go,'' he answered emphatically. There might be riot"
 "I'm not afraid And you might hear some very plain talk about your husband.''
 That's exactly why I wish to go! I'll send one of my cars to the office for you imm mediately."
 An hour later when Stuart seated, by Nan's side, reached Union square, the automobile was stopped by the po- lice and turned into Seventeenth street. Every inch of space in the square seemed blocked by a solid mass of mo tionless humanity. Stuart left the car in Seventeenth street and succeeded finally in forcing a way through the crowd to a position within hundred feet of the rude platform that had been erected for the orators. The scene about the stand bristled with po- licemen.
 Besides the special detail of picked men who moved about the stand, oc- casionalIy clubbing an inoffensive nan, a battalion of 300 reserves was drawn up in serried lines about a hundred yards to the north on the edge of Fourth avenue. Between these re- serves and the crowd about the stand an open space was kept clear for their possible assault in case of any dis turbance.
 When the speaking began Stuart pressed his way as close as possible, dra wing Nan with him. He was as tonished at the genuine eloquence and power with which the first speaker, evidently of anarchistic leanings, de- veloped his theme. q passionate plea for. freedom and the highest develop ment of the individual man. His con cluding sentences reused his crowd to a pitch of wild enthusiasm.

 'sYou-re trying to throws dust in my eyes. but I can tell yoH W hat you are really thinking You are really won 1ering why the wicked prosper.''
 You are wrong" he replied slowly. "Why the wicked prosper has never worried me in the least.
