Of the Federal bureau. David Levy.

was arraigned today.
His seizure Is only the forerunner OF
n series Of arrests contemplated by the
chief examiner. At least seven others
are involved. as a result Of the inquiry
conducted by the Federal authorities.
Levy, who is prominent In Republican
politics in Harlem, was found last night
in front Of the Union Republican Club.
He was taken to the Church street sta
ton and was arraigned this morning
before a United States commissioner on
a charge of having violated the natural
ization laws. 1t ia alleged by Cowley
that he. while In the employ Of the
county clerk accepted "gratuities." The

Of two regiments.
This announcement was made today
by 8. e. Kramer. assistant superin-
tendent Of schools. in charge OF the
details Of the cadet body. The prin-
cipal change In organizing the regiment
this year will be the limitation. when
ever possible. OF all companies to SIX
squads. or ffty-six members. including
officers.
Hitherto most Of the companies have
sought to have seven, or even eight
squads. believing their size gave them
an advantage when they entered the
Kramer explained. companies OF this
size are too unwieldy for the city
streets, where the boys must drill most
of the year. Therefore. to give an
even break to all companies, and TO
facilitate the drills. companies Will be
limited to six squads when possible.
This arrangement also Is expected to
have the effect of increasing the aggre.
gate enrolment of the cadets. as well
as Increasing the number OF companies
with more companies t"i'
said. There will be more opportunities
for commissions. In past years many
boys, when they had finished their sec

Some Animal Stories.
BY A. NJ. WEsTLAND.

There have been published from time TO
time anecdotes Of rescue work among the
cate and dogs Of Flanders, accompanied in
some cases by portraits of waits retrieved
from u life Of vngabondage and mendicHncy.
Mr.. Atkins is noted for his kindness to
animals, and that his affections are not infu-
enced by either beauty or blomeless descent
is patent to anyone who has ever visited the
soldier exhibits at q station dog-show in In
din. The situation of these hapless victims
of the war has stirred the compassion of all
animal lovers, aud to them it will be welcome
hearing that the relief Of the cats at any tate
has been sensibly organised by those prncti-
cAl creatures themselves. The following in
stances are All vouched for by trustworthy
witnesses, and have been collected direct
from those witnesses; none IL even second
hand.
Cats arc iu the majority among the strayS;
their vitality is u proverb, and it is we'll hnown
that their numbers do not decrease. Their
outlook on life is severely practicAl-in fact,
detractors call it by a hsrsher name. The
collapse OF the building containing the hearth
to which che was attached, the disappearance
of the dispensers of ~victuals aud drink, and
the prevalence of atmospheric disturbances
of Ill alarming nature soon convinced such .
reasonable animal of the precariousness of
life above ground. Not far from the ruins
