N - g , v York, Jane 1. —A certain man
o”ued a piece of lan<l New Jersey, w hich
f.i entirely unfit for any human being to
1 e ('n. So he determined to make a sum
•rf s rt of it. He laid out several streets
■ ,i tired a man to go around every mom
j j'-r a.d bail them out, for the place had
f nerly bee run. swamp. He also laid out.
sorne drains to remedy this defect, but he
subsequently lost them, because it was im
r -sibie to distinguish them from the street
L hen the weather was at all damp. It is
noon this that I base the suspicion that the
bouse I hired in Applejackhurst-by-tbe-sea
w3 - bu iit by mistake on the drain instead
c f the sea. It was one of a line of cottages
that ail looked alike, and were in the Queen
Anue style or some other fashion coming
down from an uncomfortable time, when
people knew next to nothing about building
houses.
When the man who owned Apple jackburst
bv-tbe-sea had got the place fairly started,
so that he had to stay down there several
davs in succession to look after things and
ec joy tbe fine scenery, he died of malaria,
ard his heirs formed a company to boom
the locality on account of the salubriousne s
of the climate. My wife and I were victims
of the boom. Three weeks ago yesterday
l s;o , din front of one of the cottages—l
couldn’t say which one, because one was as
b idly out of shape as another—and conclu
de 1 the contract with tbe agent.
"You swear upon your sacred honor that
th re is no malaria here?” said I.
•‘I do,” he replied.
"Then it’s a bargain,” said I. “Shake.”
"Confound your skin, wLat made you re
mind mo of it?” b grasped. Then he leaned
uo against the gate post and shook.
‘“I got this ague down in Texas,” he ex
plained when he revived. “But it’s rapidly
yielding to the beautiful climate of Appla
iackhurst-by-the-sea. ”
I t ild him that I thought he would shake
it off if lie kept on just us he was going, and
he smiled gaily at the prospect.
When I opened my oyes’ upon the dismal
realities of life, after the first night I spent
jn Applejackhurst-by-the-sea, I hoard my
wife calling: “Come Howdy, we must have
an early breakfast. I’m going into town
shopping.” 1 asked Maude in that pleasant
tone of voice which I usually employed In
discussions of this sort, before I have waked
up sufficiently to get a grip on my temper,
why the dickens she hadn’t done her shew
ing the day before, when she was in New
York.
"That’s got nothing to do with it,” said
Maude. “You know we came out here be
cause the round trip tickets are 20 cents,
cheaper when you want to go to New York
than they would have been if we had gone
to Redbank, as we thought of doing, so that
everytime I go in shopping from here I
save 20 cents, and every day I don’t go in I
lose 20 cents, and we’re not rich enough to
afford to waste money.” I have been my
wifu’s husband long enough not to attempt
to argue with her when she gets into the
higher mathematics of domestic economy.
But I did venture to ask her if there was
anything she wanted to buy in New York.
"Why, of course there is,” said Maude.
”1 want to buy some napkins. We need
half a dozen and I saw them advertised in
a New York paper for $1 50. At tbe store
down here, the same goods will cost $1 60,
and I don’t propose to let anybody cheat
me. It’s to much to pay for napkins any
way.”
‘Now, Maudie,” said I coaxingly.
“You’re not going way into New York to
save 5 cents on half u dozen napkins?” I
said no more, because I saw that peculiar
gleam in Maude’s eye which told me that
ihe would soon either cry or begin to break
the furniture. We went into New York
ihopping.
Jlaude took me to one of those big stores
where they sell everything from a tooth
pick to a Saratoga trunk. Stie appeared to
want them all. She looked at a few nap
kins, but near them there happeued to boa
counter covered w ith dress goods. It was a
"bargain counter,” too. Maude couldn’t
stand the mental pressure. She pawed over
all the dress goods, and finally bought a big
roll of somethinglsbe didn’t want, because it
was cheap. I had to pay for it, and I also
had to carry it, because Applejackhurst-by
the-sea was outside delivery limits. Then
o moved on to another counter and bought
something else. I don’t know what it was,
bat 1 paid for it. We went clear around
the store in that way. My load grew heav
ier every minute. I had to hold it with
both arms, and it had gradually crept up
over my vest till the pile of bundles began
to obscure my vision.
The last thing I remember to have seen
was a bio de young saleslady who Diled a
big package on my arms that reached a
couple of inches above the top of my head.
“Maude,” said I, “let us go. Do you in
tend to start a store in Applejackhurst-by
the-seai”
But she had found something else to buy.
It "as a smoking jacket for .her pug dog.
Ha was supposed to wear it during the time
wh n the head of the family smoked his
alter dinner cigar, it was the latest thing
in society, and New York dogs of good
family were getting measured for them
every day.
' Howdy, we must have one of these
for Claude,” said Maude. “How much
money have you got left!”
Money,” said I. “Why, you’ve been
carrying my purse for the last two
tours."
iso I have,” she said, “and I thought it
as mine, On, dear, thero isn’t a cant left,
„ hero are some white flannel suits that
T” 1 ' j U s>ht to have for yourself.”
Maude,” said I, “if suits of clothes were
ctn:s a piece, I couldn’t buy the arm hole
a second-hand vest. Let’s go back to
Applejaokhurst-by-tho-sea.”

Ock Lif USe ' vas ours ; if I sot- Ailed with
au< i duck shot it was somebody
else's. There was a chance and I took it. I
-thought it as safer than ringing the bell
and inquiring, because there's so much talk
about “wbi e cap*’’ in New Jersey lately
that people shoot put of windows on the
strength of very faint probabilities.
I went ar> uind through the grots plot and i
pried open tlie basement window. Then I I
got inside add Maude passed me the bundles,
because it had began to rsia and she didn’t
want them to get wet. The inside cf the
house was just Irke ours, but 1 knew it
would be, especially in tnedark. I stumbled
upstairs with the bundles in my arms.
Then my confidence weakened. There as
an odor of clay pipe in the air. I never
smoke a pipe. I began to feel quite sure
that f should get the duck shot. Footsteps
approached stealthily through the hall.
Then a big tough appeared in tbe doorway
with a lamp iu oue baud and a club in the
other.
I fell on my knees, and the bundles cov
ered the floor.
“My dear, kind sir,” said I, “this is the
most accidental thing that ever happened
to me since I was born. I—l never intended
to break into your house.”
“Break into my house?”
“Yes; and I’ll go righffaway this minute,
and call off my wife; you ought to spare my
lifofor that, and I’ll—”
“Well, I dunno about yez,” said he, “Me
opinion is that yez bad. Yez ju-t go into
this closet, do yd mind, till I call the per
lice.”
I went into the closet very gladly, because
I knew that there was another door on the
other side of it. I went through this door
without losing any time and jumped out of
the window. I lit very near Maude, but
she escaped.
“Hun, run,” I whispered, “it’s the wrong
house.”
We fell over a lawn mower and three
croquet hoops, but ovo tually made our
escape. We wandered the street till morn
ing and Maude know every minute that we
should be arrested. At 6 a. m, we were
iu front of one of the cottages as the milk
man was making his rounds. He rang the
bell several times but nobody answered
Theu I heard him say; “I wonder where'
them new people the Fieldings is chat they
don’t wake up.”
“Maude,” I cried, “we’re saved. This
is our house.”
And it was. We walked up the steps and
Maude pulled out the key and unlocked the
door. She’d had the thing in her pock :t
all along.
Several days passed, but, to our surprise,
wo heard nothing of the burglary that I
had unintentionally committed. I came to
the conclusion that the man in whose bouse
I had dropped the bundles had decided
that it was a good chance to get some nap
kins and dress goods for nothing, and was
keeping his mouth shut. I was willing to
do it if ho would. I accepted that explana
tion till I got the following note:
Mr. Fielding:
“Beak Sir—We have met l>efore. You
are the man that I caught burglarizing,
but it’s all right. Don’t say anything more
about it. You will never do well in my
line of business. You get scared too quick.
I’m obliged for the swag, but I send this
piece of red silk back, because my girl’s
got hair that isn’t exactly that shade,
though its too near to look right. If you’ll
get it exchanged no questions will be asked,
and I give you a pointer for nothing. When
you burglarize your own house again, don’t
be bluffed out too easy by another gent
what’s there on the same errand. lam
yours to command, Scadsy the Kid”.
So I had been in my own house after all.
I did not tell this to Maude. It would have
made me a hopeless minority in the family,
Howard Fielding.
OATS OF HIGH DEGREE.
Wonderful Instances of Intelligence
Among Famous Felipes.
From the New York Star.
Nearly twenty years ago my first interest
in the cat was excited one day in early
youth when out hunting. A lady at the
farm where I stopped for dinner requested
me to shoot her cat, which was getting old
and useless to the family. With the thought
lessness of youth I consented and asked a
boy iu the yard to scare the animal that
it might run and have a
show for life. The scared an
imal dashed off madly for the field, and
when running at right angles to my gun I
fired. It stopped instantly, turned and
faced me with a look of anguish and re
proach. and fell dead. That single glance
has never been blotted from my memory,
and never will be. From that day I have
been in irresistible sympathy with the cat,
have never lost au opportunity to make one
my friend, and have held in contempt those
who maltreat the mute occupants of the
household. There are those who declare
that the cat is a treacherous animal, and
has not the absolute confidence in human
nature possessed by the dog. I agree
with suen people to the extent that in every
instance pointed out that I havo examined,
the cat imbibed its treacherous habits from
motives of self preservation from some
treacherously disposed member of the
household. The cat is a diplomat, puro and
simple. Its habits are formed from those
of the human species in its environment
with whom it has to deal and from whom it
has to defend itself. I have never known
an instance where kindness failed to go
straight home to the mentality of the cat
and was not reciprocated.
Oue who has seen “Muff.” belonging to
the late Miss Mary L. Booth, editress of
Harper's Bazar, could not fail to be im
pressed with his extraordinary intelligence
and politeness. Muff seemed never to for
get a friend. At one of Miss Booth’s Satur
day nights Muff sat in my lap while I
argued for his great intelligence with
Monseigneur Capel, who spoke bitterly
against cats in general and Muff in partic
ular, because he was allowed to enter the
drawing room and he petted by
the guests. Muff listened in
tently to the conversation and
seemed to understand tbat he was being
defended, and certainly he showed great
offense at the monseigneur. It was more
than a month before I saw him again.
Muff came into the assembly and out of
politeness seemed to accept the caresses of
the ladies first, although I tried to attract
his attention. At last, impatient, I spoke
a little sharply and said: “Muff, did
I not defend you against tbe mon
seigneur, and is this your reward?” In
stantly he jumped onmy lap and remax ed
there receiving my caresses while I talked
to him, and, evidently to soften my re
proaches, put his paws on my shoulders aud
looked knowingly in my face. Muff invari
ably came into the receptions at a certain
hour, and if the door was shut on him
scratched at it and mewed until admitted.
He only remained a certain period each night
and retired at his regular hour.
Doubtless the most interesting cats, those
which present tbe best opportunities for
study, are the property of photographers.
Ray D. Chapman of this city had two cats
which he taught to lie in bed and be cov
ered like the human being. Rockwood of
Union square, in this city, posed a kitten in
a shoe, a picture which has attracted the
attention of the whole civilized world, and
lie has posed others successfully.
Alman, at No. 172 Fifth avenue, has
posed many cats. One posed for him while
he painted its portrait, and a noble pose it
gave, with serious, pathetic eyes, in weich
is the look of genius.
The many pictures of the cat belonging to
Mrs. J. B. Lewis, No. 1,216 Broadway, aud
which adorn a panel at the entrance of her
studio, have attracted universal attention.
Of these I think ‘ “Puss in Clover” is the
most artistic. She lios in a lied of clover in
a basket adorned with ribbons and roses
and the expression of ber face is beautiful.
I have also a poso by a Catholic priest en
titled “Indisposed." which is a marvel of
ennui, laziness aud luxury.
George C. Phelps’ photograph of his cat
“Sneezer” has attracted as much attention
in the picture windows of Broadway and in
his studio at New, Haven as the ladies of the
English nobility or the famous actresses.
Sneezer stands with his fore paws on the back
of the chair, facing the camera,and yet show
ing a part of his profile. Ho wears a noble air
THE MORNoNG NEWS: FRIDAY, JUNE 7, 1889.
and shows himself every inch a gentleman.
Mr. P, olps trained Sneezer to interest babes
and chi dren wnile their photographs were
being taken. The cat, on com t.and, hops up
on a chair and strikes an attitude as much
as to say, “Now, you look at me for a mo
ment” He accepts only the confidence of
his master, and disdains to ass ciate with
otuer cats. He puts out his paw when
asked to shake hands, mews wne-i told to
spe.ik, and if requested' to speak louder
emits a screech that no one cau mistake as
a feline blast.
The politeness of store, cats to customers
is not only proverbial, but provocative of
amazimeut. A s ore cat wilt become ac
quainted with many objects which custom
ers moat frequently call for, anil follow the
purchaser around, placing its paws on
the various articles a-ked for, and finallv
following the patron to the door. In st res
where there is much glassware it is a pecu
liar spectacle to see the cat make its way
amo >g tbo glasses without once disturbing
or ever breaking one.
The vessel cat is quite a different animal
from puss on shore’ It is moro quiot in its
character, owing, no doubt, to its narrew
confiue-, of prowling aad investigation. If
there are two cats ou board of vessels, the
b. st looking one and most fitted to survive
takes the cabin, and the otxi of the lesser
importance goes to the forecastle. These
two associate but little, occasionally meet
ing on the main deck, but never invading
each other’s domain. This would indicate
caste in cats, and certainly there is as much
caste in cats, dogs and horses as in man
kind. Tnis is due entirely to association
with the human species aud the absorption
of their characteristics.
There are cats and cats, and all seem to
have a different sp>ciesoC intelligence, each
oue distinguished for its own peculiar de
velopment according to environment and
the traits of trie neople with whom it is
surrounded. One named “Black,” owned
some years ago by Dr. Thomas Bryan Gun
ning of this city, pertormed a marvelous
surgical operation, delivered the letters at
the post box on the corner lamp post, ate at
the table with the family, sitting ou its
hind feet in n chair, with its fore paws
placed on tbe table, using them delicately
and politely, and nover forgot a friend,
being always ready to take up an acquaint
ance exactly where it broke off. But it is
sufficient to summarize from the incidents
what the intelligence of a cat has generated.
In brief, a cat can be an aristocrat,
polite, refined, and eat at tho table with
delicacy and foijni if trained; remember
faces, friends and favors; can distinguish
hi> face in a glass as a case of refraction,
can appreciate music, cau bo taught to pose
aud interest chi.dren for posing, can per
form its own cure when side and surgical
operations on its person; can care for other
and motherless offspring; cau revenge in
jury, can understand a UniitM vocabulary
of human words and can count.
