To Start a Cat Ranch.

There is a financial genius III
Greenville, Miss, named Frazier,
who has a unique scheme for
getting rich, and the Times gives
this account of it:
Frazier proposes to promote
a joint stock company to operate
a large cat ranch at some place
in Texas where land is cheap.
He proposes to start the ranch
with 100000 cats. Each cat. he
SAYS, will average twelve kittens
a wear. The skins, without the
meows, will sell for ten cents
each for the pure white ones,
and z 1-2 cents each for the solid
black ones. This. he estimates,
will run up to 100000 skins a
year, which, at an average price
of 3 cents. will bring $4,000 .
year gross income,or about 600
a day. The cost of 'skinning .
cat; as every athletic American
boy knows. is very small, conse-
quently the only serious item OF
expense to be considered is the
feeding of the felines. This. Mr..
Frazier proposes to accomplish
in a very UNIQUE manner. Here
is his plan: 4.
We propose to start a rat ranch
next door to the cat ranch to
supply food for the cats. As
uo+a multiply four times as fast
l"'s :. a. =" 200 Of the rodents
90 ,"'s' -'ooo,s =. ..o,.. Nth. We
calculate that this number VIA
give the cats a daily supply OF
meat which they will eagerly
ratify, We will also supply the
felines with plenty of tea from
the catnip we will plant upon the
ranch"
but you'll have to feed fhe
rats, Mr., Frazier" was suggest
ed.
ITO be sure, we WILL" he re-
piled. I'VE will feed the rats
upon the carcasses of the cats,
you see, thus utilizing the other
wise useless dead kittens. l."
Continuing, the catrranch pro
moter said:
When it is remembered that
our cats have what no other ami.
mails have-kittens-it will be
seen that the business will be
self-acting or automatic. Conse'
quently it will be profitable from
the start, as the cats will eat thu
rats and the rats will eat thu
cats, while the stockholders viii
get the skins"

TO The Forum: have always

morning paper against MIR. Buch-

man Hanna.
1t is generally known that Mr..
Buchanan is heavy stockholder
in the morning paper.
Ii seems TO me he has lost the
right to ask fair men to vote fer
him after the infamous mucl<rak-
ing attacks against his opponent
by paper in which he owns stock.
am astorlished that a man of
the high character which had
always attributed to MIR. Buchanan
would permit such dissracefuI tac-
tics.

the insurgent candidates on the

A "valedictory" statement was read

of ten miles an hour. He was clinging
to pile, holding his infant son in his
arms and could do nothing to save the
other members of the family. George

The section of dock which gave way
was about SO feet in length and
was about 25 feet in width. The
