an almost good cat into a, tank of gas.
The tank is one which is kept at the
pound to asphyxiate cats and dogs
who are under indictment, and At has
been very useful until yesterday, EElhen
it exploded as soon as the cat tQe1ch-

Engineers who were called in to

was especially good, and there was no
fault to be found with the cats igni-

Evidently it was a two-cycle cat.
and the preston was just right
when it was thrown in. There we're
evidences that the animals ignition
was of the make-and-break type, las
there was no trace of carb onizatfon
and no magnetic was used. AS in the
case of any reliable internal combus

when the compression was highest,
and there was an impulse which cost
the city the price of one good gas

This is the third time similar tanks;
have exploded, every time while they
contained a cat. Mr. Dean says than
hereafter he will use the tanks exclue
