STILL ABLE TO CATCH RATS
Cat Seemingly Understood Derogatory
Remark and Proved FaIslty
of Charge.

A number of years ago a small,
white kitten strayed into provision
store, SO forlorn in appearance it es-
pecially appealed to the sympathies
of those in charge, and moreover
such a good little thing, never jump
ing onto the bench or anywhere else
it ought not to be, they decided to
keep it. Eight or nine years after
ward, one night, about closing-up
time, a large rat came into view, but
the cat did not pay any attention to
it, or seem to care anything about
it. The proprietor said, 'That cat
is getting too old to catch rats; we
shall have to get some traps and set
around here" The next morning,
when the store was opened, the body
of a big rat was discovered lying on
the meat bench with its head toward
the chopping block, a place in which
it could not but be seen, and on two
or three mornings of that same week
again the body of large rat was
found in the same way, as if the
cat said, CT can catch rats if l want
to- Mr.. L. says no one could tell
him after that that a cat didn't I'M
derstand what was said.-Our Four.

FOR THOSE WHO HEAR NOT
Schwartz Advertised Deaf Mans Pho

The hall boy had fairly split his
throat shouting directions to deaf
persons who had called to see Mr..
Schwartz. Mr.. Schwartz lived on
the fourth floor rear, right-hand
apartment, through the long hall
and up the back stairs. 1t took a
good deal of shouting to make people
understand that.
Il never saw so many deaf people
in my life" said the boy. 'What on
earth are they all running up to
Schwartz's for?"
"Nlr. Schwartz has advertised a
deaf mans photograph for sale, %
said a neighbor. ''He is very hard
of hearing. The photograph was
made especially for him. 1t has an
unusually loud tone. Nobody but
the hard Of hearing can live with
such entertainment. Mr.. Schwartz,
to save trouble, has advertised for a
deaf purchaser"

"Very-hic-well, indeed" said
the monocled one, deliberately. 81

then, to the amazement of the clerk

His way was in bloody lane where
clanking caissons splashed along; his
goal, the line where blazing guns
laughed out their song Of death. On,
on he went. His ears were filled with
sounds of quick commands, bugle
blasts, discordant drums. No flutter-
ing fear was in his heart, no thought
of home, no specter of the dread des-
pair that waited at the hearth If he
never came again. To him there was
no warning in the bullets deadly hiss.

he toiled alone; nor cold nor hunger
even daunted him. He marshaled all
his hosts, and visions came and went.
On, on he toiled. In the snowflakes
that drifted in and touched his hands
he read a message from the world
without; all white, all cherries. AS
chrysalis, his fancy wove and spun
and made its garments wondrous, then
burst in splendor on a waiting world.

ANOTHER VOTE ON HOME RULE
is CERTAIN

The latest tests of the strength of
parties in the House of Commons indi-
cate that the present Liberal ministry
will be forced to ask the electorate of
the United Kingdom for one more vote
of confidence before Irish home rule
can become an established fact. The
majority upon which the government
can depend has nearly vanished sever
al times, in critical situations, and any
day another test of the temper of the
house may GUST the Asquith ministry.
The best Informed politicians in
London expect to see ANOTHER gener-
al election before the home rule issue
an be finally disposed of. When that
test of public sentiment comes there
will be one of the most bitterly con-
tested campaigns in the history of the
United Kingdom.
Recent threats of civil war in
Ulster rave done much to shake the
c%onfidnece of weakened Liberals in
the wisdom and timeliness of the
pol1cy OF the present government. The
Conservatives, on the other hand, have
been encouraged by numerous victories
in recent by-eleetions and they will 90
into another fight with the enrgy born
of their consciousness that if they fail
again to carry the country at the polls
their last chance of successful resist
ance to the Liberal program for Ire
land will pass away forever.
1t is a prospect for hard fighting
such as Americans, in their most siren
uous campaigns, can hardly under
stand. The intensity of feeling
arouse by the home rule issue is Of
the kind which leads to common talk
of civil war in Ireland. The social
and business future of the United
Kingdom is believed by millions of
voters to be at stake upon the final

the probable lineup of the tenn
porary roil-call of delegates In the
convention In the contest between
Taft and Roosevelt. and the opin-

They agreed that the control of the
convention would be in the hands
of the uninstructed delegates, but
would vouchsafe no guess as TO
what the action of this class might
be.
A supporter of Taft on the COM

welt won all the delegates YET to be
chosen, ne would st.l' be short of
the necessary $40 votes.
1t is expected that the first test

INFURIATED MOB BURNS
NEGRO TO DEATH At POST
Black Made Written Confession
of His Assault on a
White Girl.

Tyler, Tex, May 25.-Dan Davis
negro, was burned to death at 4
O'Clock this morning on the public
square here, after he had signed a
written statement confessing that
he had criminally assaulted Miss
Carrie Johnson. sixteen years old,
500 persons participating in the
lynching.
Before the match was touched to
the pile of wood on which the ne
/ gro had been placed by the mob, he
was again asked if he was guilty.
Il am guilty" he replied in a hus-
ky voice. A moment later the
flames were leaping high above his
head.
Davis implicated another negro
in the crime, saying he is under ar
rest in Waco. Davis was brought
here early to-day from Athens.
Tex. When members of the Sher-
IFS force arrived at the Jail with
the negro they were confronted by
several hundred citizens, who wait
ed until the black had written his
confession and then demanded he
be turned over to them.
The officers and citizens inside
the Jail protested, but finally gave
the negro to the mob, whose num-
bers made protest useless, the Off
GERS say. From the Jail the man
was led to the public square. where
several wagonloads OF wood had
been piled. He was tied to a post.
AS the flames enveloped him, the
blacks voice was hoarse, and he
showed fear, but there was no cry
from him until the flames scared
his flesh, when he moaned. The
crowd stood around the fire until
it died down and little was left but
charred bones and ashes.
The work of the lynchers was
done quickly and quietly. The de.

The primary cause OF the high

the continued scarcity of cattle.
