Newport, KY, July l3.-LP)-A cat.
once it has found a loving mistress
or master, presumably will not leave
home for a long period Of absence.
At least it Nvas so proven here when
45 cats, driven out Of the home OF
Mrs. Maggie Zeidler by policemen and
officers of the sanitary department,
found their way back home again.
The officers shooed the cats out Of
Mrs. Zeidler's house upon complaints
lodged by her neighbors, after Mrs.
Zeidler had refused to DESTROY or
otherwise dispose of the pets. She
decided to move at the expiration of
her lease rather than give up her
cats. The new location will be large
enough to accommodate them.
