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. Effort to Stop Cow’s Lashing Tail Fatal T<i)eka, Kan.—Ten-year-old Ben jamin Trent is dead at his farm home near here, the victim of his invention to preven f a cow from switching him with her tail while he was milking. Tying the animal’s tail to his wrist he started to milk her.- The cow be came excited, bolted for a pasture, and dragged the boy behind her. He died o’ internal injuries. Drunken Indian, “Buried” by Tribe, Comes to Life Pavvhuska, Okla.—Liquor made a “corpse” of John Stink, an Indian, of this place. Stink drank some moon shine and became unconscious. The tribe thought he was dead and buried him in a hammock, Indian style. The “corpse” sobered up, climbed out, and went back to the camp. Will Deport Baby New York.—Elisa Valerie, fourteen months old, will be deported by the United States, the youngest person ev er to be sent away from Ellis island alone. The child’s mother, a steward ess on the liner President Wilson, died after being refused permission to bring the child into the United States.

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.— Exchange. Wealth in Hen’s Crop When killed and dressed, a Rhode Island Red hen, bought along with others in the Loina Rica (Calif.) dis trict by a poultry exchange, was found with a fine collection of gems in her craw. They were transparent crystals of varied colors. A Marysville jewel er said that four of the stones are blue sapphires.

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. When a neighbor objects to this In trusion, as In the case of Mr. and Mr%. Azzevedo, progress on a paint job Is seriously Impeded. Aulo Accident Leads to Arrest of 2 Criminals Paris.—An auto accident had a curi ous sequel here.

Much Obliged, Says Old Sailor Saved From Sea Bridgeport, Conn.—Some sort of an award for nonchalance ought to go to an ancient mariner rescued from his leaking rowboat in a driving rainstorm near here recently, Capt. David S. Conrad of the tug Owen J. McWil liams believes. The gray-haired old man was stand ing In his water-filled boat, waving his shirt on the end of an oar wb£n ho was sighted through the rain.

At the dock the aged boatman turned and said: “Much offliged, captain.” “Don’t mention if,” replied Captain Conrad. Burial Alive All Right, but He Forgot Details Camas, Wash.—The trouble was that Romo, Man of Mystery at carni vals and county fairs, forgot one of his handy aids to mystery. Emulating Houdlnl, Romo attempted to show he could survive one hour In a coffin buried six feet In a gratfe. 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.

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. MOTHER!
