SECOND BEST IN
TILT WITH CAT
Arrests Disorderly Kitty but
Neglects to Put Brace*
lets on It.
Silver Spring, Md.—This is a story
of a poHotman and a cat, in a little
scrimmage in which the feline won.
Montgomery county policemen are
always on the alert to assure a peace
ful life for the populace, ever ready to
take action to quell any disturbance.
Charles T. Barnes, patrolman attached
to the northern district station, was
settling down for a long night watch,
glancing at the clock for the time to
roll around, when he would take his
turn on the 85-mile beat The tele
phone rang and a feminine voice com
plained of a cat that was causing a
disturbance around a home several
miles from the station.
Docile, Apparently.
Barnes put on his hat, strapped his
Sam grown bell, With pistol and bul
lets attached, over his massive form,
and hied forth In the police car. The
cat was delivered to him, a docile
feline, apparently. He stroked its
fur, placed It in the car, closed the
windows so It could not get out, but
neglected to put the “bracelets” on,
an act that he now regrets. But who
would have thought a cat could cause
any disturbance, particularly with
glass protecting.
He left, with kitty secure on the
back sfeat, apparently enjoying the
ride. He was rolling along tbe roads,
and after about two miles the feline
Kitty Made it the First Time.
apparently objected to confinement.
There was a thud at the back of the
policeman’s neck, and a sharp dig in
his shoulder told him that all was not
secure within the inclosure. He
reached for the cat. It now was
crawling upside down on the ceiling
of the car, and making good time. So
was the automobile. Back again at
the policeman’s head and neck. A
swipe of the hand cut only the air,
for the feline was back on the ceiling,
and running around in circles, spitting
and hissing. Kitty struck again, and
scored, this time on the shoulders.
Barnes ducked and let go a long arm.
Missed again.
Things Get Hot.
Barnes said things were getting hot.
The car was stopped. But kitty kept
making the circuit of the ring, hitting
everything in sight, and not missing
Barnes on any cycle. Barnes glanced
at the car and the flying fur, and then
into the dark countryside, and decided
that there was vastly more room there
than in that car. He reached for the
window to open it, but quickly de
cided the door would provide more
exit space and opened it wide. Kitty
made it the first time and disappeared
up the road and if it causes any more
disturbance, Barnes has decided that
someone else will have to contend
with the disturber.

Science Can’t Explain
Transmission of Genius
The question of hereditary influence
Is difficult to determine, although in
the matter of musicians it seems
strong. Although Beethoven’s grand
father, a musician, died when the lad
was only four years old, the great
composer always remembered him and
said that his life had been influenced
b.v the old music master. His own fa
ther wits not a musician. Beethoven
began his studies at the age of five
years.
Sir Arthur Sullivan’s father was a
bandmaster in the army and at the
age of ten years young Arthur could
play every instrument in his father’s
band. The parents of other composers
were musical.
In other lines there seems to be no
hereditary connection. Child prodigies
seem to come, as the old poem has it,
“out of the nowhere into the here.”
However, it is known that generations
may pass and the talent of a forbear
reappear in a child after having lain
dormant for a century or more.—

of varied colors. A Marysville jewel

JatfcgJca, L. I. —Anew wrinkle In
signs for front lawns has been Intro
duced by Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Azzevedo.
If neighbors are Inclined to be inde
pendent, why not put up a sign about
It so that the public knows It? Mr.
and Mrs. Azzevedo did so recently.
The sign In question, which may or
may not start a vogue In suburban
communities, rends: “The reason why
the west side of our house Is not
painted is because our neighbors on
that side refuse to allow our painter
to place his ladder on their property
In order to do the work.**
The west side of the house Is garbed
In tts original coat of wfilte, while the
remalndes is brightly pointed In deep
cream. The sign is about a foot and
a half square and generally similar
to an ordinary real estate placard. It
has been specially painted, with ex
treme regard for legibility.
The houses on Ninetieth avenue are
unjusually close together making It
Impossible for palaters to raise lad
ders or erect scaffoldings without
stepping on a neighbor’s property.

At the dock the aged boatman
turned and said:
“Much offliged, captain.”
“Don’t mention if,” replied Captain
Conrad.

handy aids to mystery.
Emulating Houdlnl, Romo attempted
to show he could survive one hour In

Curiously enough, he took along a
telephone. Down he went, duly nailed
up In a box of one-inch boards, and
on him thn earth. Only three feet of
it, however.
There came frantic calls for help,
and when he was exhumed It was dis

Blessing Bestowed on
Product of Vineyards
In nearly all the vineyards of France
the nnnual celebrations hnve Just tak
en place, in the course of which the
year’s vintage receives priestly bene
diction.
One of the most curious of these
festivities is that held at Boulbon,
a village near Tarascon in Provence.
All the inhabitants of the country
side around Tarascon, on the day of
the celebration, march first upon Boul
bon, and then from the village to a
chapel on a neighboring hilltop.
Every processloner carries in the
crook of his arm an unopened bottle
of local wine, which, when the chapel
Is renehed, is blessed by the priest,
who sprinkles holy water upon it.
Whereupon every one draws his cork
and drinks: and then, carefully guard
ing the bottle, which he keeps until
the following year, he returns to Boul
bon with song and dance.

Although the use of household elec
