BRAVES FIRE FOR KITTENS
Flremen Rescue Mother Found Carry

Through the Smoke.

New York.-Maternal instinct led a
zig black cat to ignore flames and
smoke in an effort to shield her six
little kittens in the six-story loft build
ing at No. ia West Seventeenth
street, until the firemen had to carry
her out Of the place to save her life.
She was limp and almost suffocated
when the firemen picked her up. but
was still making a valiant fight for
her offspring. All six Of the little
fluffy felines we're dead, but the
mother was struggling toward the
front windows with two of them in
her mouth in hopeless effort to get
them into the fresh air.
The fire started in the underwear
shop of Fisher & Co., on the sixth
floor of the building. When Lieuten-
ant Comiskey reached the place with
his fire company he noticed the cat
walking feebly toward the front of the
loft. She had in her mouth the two
little kittens, but the fire had attained
such headway that the lieutenants at
tention was diverted from the mother
cat for a few minutes.
When the fire was under control he
again saw the cat standing over
box. He went up and found that there
we're four more kittens All Of them
had been smothered by the smoke, as
were the two the mother had been
carrying. The lieutenant carried the
mother to the street and Acting Chief
Ross decided to adopt her. He took
her to the engine house at Sixth ave-

MOUNTAIN LION STEALS FISH
Four Anglers Spend Weird Night In

Huizing, G. Gardener and N. Songer
who have just returned from fish
ing trip to upper Bear creek.
The anglers caught a fine mess Of
trout and only used half Of them for
the evening meal. Just before they
went to sleep they heard noise on
the rock above them, and an inVesti-
cation revealed big wildcat sinking
off in the moonlight.
Fearful that the animal would come
back after the trout they hung them
on two upright poles in the ground.
About midnight they were awakened
by the roaring of a mountain lion
that seemed to be almost on top of
them. One of the men was brave
enough to move toward the sound,
but the fierce roaring of the lion
scared him away. In the morning
when they went to look for their
breakfast of trout they found 1t gone

All the senator said when he
dropped the envelope and its contents
into the wastebasket was:

monial agency for his special benefit
Now, I'll do any number of things
