CITY HALL PARKS OLD FENCE.

Boss Tweed and his gang were run

retreat was located, the Americas Club,
where the familiar Tammany tiger was

the club grounds would be fitting
place to be enclosed by the City Hall
Park fence, for he ordered it gathered
up and shipped over to Greenwich at
the City's expense, and II was thrown
about the grounds of the Americas Club

THE KNIGHTS TOUR.
From time TO time THE Sun is asked TO
give some way of remembering the order
OF the moves for a knights tour OF the
chessboa I'd. so that he shall touch each
square once and once only. This Is one
OF the classical problems OF reentrant
paths. but 1t can be solved in two different
ways 1t is a common practice for teach
ers or mnemonics to give their pupils an
arrangement OF figures by which the path
of the knight may be traced on board
with Ga numbered squares.
II is not generally known. however. that
the problem Is divided into two distinct
was first solved some 200 years ago. IL to
start the knight upon any square and TO
finish the tour upon the same square. This
is the reentraut, or unicursal path. The
other Is for the knight to start upon any
square and TO finish at any other square.
so that every square is touched once and
once only.
The first solution is not easy to re-
member. the path OF tho knight being
rather complicated. but any person who In
challenged to solve the problem may
easily do so II he is allowed the second
solution without any recourse to mnc-
monies, provided he knows the rule. which
Is very much like the one to keep the
wall always on the right In threading the
maze at Hampton Court
Just for a little exercise in testing the
ingenuity of readers OF THE SUN here is
a a a gram showing the order of the moves
when the knight is not required to finish
on the square at which he began:

WHEN CATS DIE.

THE cat population of New York Is
estimated to he over 100, 900. and
sometimes 1t seems as II YOU
could hear them all mcowing at once
in the still night. But whoever sees
dead cat nowadays, except perhaps IN
the suburbs?
There's no end to the live cats in
evidence. The cat census man has
almost got them down To the number
per block. They arc often seen in the
pride of their nocturnal activities. But
how about the dead ones? II they are
removed cXpedtiously. as they should be,
how is 1t that you can't seem To find
a person who has seen many If any So
removed? Do they dry up and blow
away? no they crawl into some
secluded spot and give up the ghost?
The cat and dog hospitals give YOU
all sorts of statistics about the num-
Der thcy attend and restore to health
and what caused their illness. But
what becomes of the bodies Of the dead
seems a puzzle. The question has often
been asked: who ever sees dead
sparrow in New York? The reason for
the question Is that the wag wants N
answer II himself by telling YOU TO 20
ask the cats about IT, Admitting this
might explain why no dead sparrows are
about, 1t doesn't solve the mystery at
what becomes of Tabby and Thomas
after they have acted AS sparrow under
takers and have finally had to pay the
