REMARKABLE RESULTS SeSeree ee Passengers on the Metropolitan railroad cars that run out Connecticut avenue have frequently wondered what the inclosure in the rear of the smail frame house at the junction of 19th street and the Columbia road was used for. The high, unpainted board fence has a wire netting extending from it for several feet on the inside, and at the back of the inclosure is a small building, from which a wire-covered yard extends. A good many people have thought that some one was raising chickens there on the incubating plan, but an investiga- tion, which is well worth making, would develop that the yard and the equipments in the rear of it were intended solely for the protection and safe keeping of cats. A Star reporter made a visit to this unique but applaudable institution this morning. His call was suggested by the following notice received at this office: “Those desiring handsomg cats or kittens can apply at the Shelter for Animals, Co- lumbia road, corner 19th street northwest. ‘They have a number on hand that must be chloroformed unless owners or homes are found for them.” “Is tnis the cat hospital?” inquired the reporter of a bright, pleasant-looking young woman, who was attending to her morning household duties in the small house at the corner. “No,” she said, smilingly; “there is not a sick cat on the premises, but this is the cats’ home. Come in. The Collection of Cats. ‘The reporter entered and passed out into the back yard, where he was received with inquiring glances by numerous kittens, whose climbing proclivities had not been sufficiently developed to admit of their scal- ing the fence in the very small portion where it was not.guarded by a wire in- hanging canopy. ‘There were Kittens of <li colors, both sexes ard all temperaments. While three were playing in one corner of the fence two were €: gaging in an earnest fight.in the middle of the yard. There were thin kittens and fat kittens; but with the exception of the three jolly little fellows most of them wore a woebegone expression because they had just passed through a disinfecting treat- ment for the destruction of the fleas which had been their steady companions for some time. It may be remarked that the treat- ment in question did not eradicate the en- re population of fleas, because some of them followed The Star man all the way down to The Star office. That, however, is rot of public interest in connection with this story. At the back of the yard was a large space inclosed by wire netting, en- tered through a gate made of the same ma- terial, and in this were the older cats. The little house at the right which opened into this space was also populated with cats, several of which in the building were nurs- ing newly arrived families: These old cats presented as great a variety as the kittens cn the outside, and there were as many Kittens in the wire-covered space as there were out of it. Superintendent Bradley. Mr. Harry Bradley, the superintendent of the institution, which is conducted under the auspices of the Humane Society, talked with the reporter about the cats, stroking a pretty tortoise shell animal as he con- versed. “We have a good many calls for kittens and young cats from persons who are troubled with mice on their premises, or who want pets for themselves or their children,” said Mr. Bradley, “but we have a §00d n.any more calls from persons who went us to come and take cats away and bring them here. We answer all calls of this scrt at once. The great number of cats in Washingten have cceasioned a good deal of complaint, but it would be easy to keep the supply down if the people generally knew that they could have the kittens that are so frequently born to household pets chioroformed immediately after their birtn by sencing us word so we could send an attendant to do the work. They usually ait until the kittens have grown to a #cod size 2nd then send one of the children cut to drown them, but the more humane Do Not Be Deceived. Do not endanger the life of your child by accepting a cheap substitute which some druggist may offer you (because he makes a few more pennies on it), the in- gredients of which even he does not know. “The Kind You Have Always Bought” BEARS THE FAC-SIMILE SIGNATURE OF.

Fences, trees and telegraph poles flew by, and Cole took a fresh grip on the handle bars, with the single thought of keeping his machine upright. Then he tried to cateh his pedals, but the first attempt tore the heel off one of the shoes. In his fright he was nearly unseated. To make matters worse, just ahead of him was a carriage proceeding slowly down the hill. Instinctively Cole swerved to the right and shot past like a bullet. As he was going by he heard some one shout and caught the words, “* * * be kill Cole knew that to jump off would be cer- tain death, but it required all the nerve at his command to keep from jumping. Fcrtunately the turns down the grade on either side were slight, but even the slight swerving nearly unseated him. Around the turns and then down the tangents the wheel flew, gathering speed at every revo- lution. The wind scorched his face, and perspiration oozed from“ every pore. Finally tae luckless rider approached the last turn. It was sharper than the others, and at the bottom of the hill his passage seemed tc be blocked by a stone wall. Cole saw but one chance for salvation, and, leaning far to the right as he struck the bend, he drew iis wheel down so that the inside pedal dug into the earth and the outside one barely grazed the wall. Just ahead-was a stretch of sand and gravel roadway. His speed slackened with a jerk as the wheel plowed throush it, scattering the sand like waves on either side ard throwing him ten feet or more. Over the handle bars he went like a shot from a catapult, sprawling into the gravel more dead than alive, but having lived in those few seconds of descent a century or two. The people in the carriage reached the spot & few seconds later, expecting to find parts of Cole scattered along the roadway. But they were pleasantly disappointed. When the bewildered wheelman took ac- ccent of his injuries a few bruises on his hip and a severed small artery made up the sum total. The artery was closed by an impromptu tourniquet, and Cole sought a doctor and then limped’ painfully to the train. He had aad enough of wheeling for one day. ———_+ e+ PLUCKY McDOWELL.

Californin’s Coal Supply. From the Engineering ard Mining Journal. In the new tariff the duty on soft coal was placed at 67 cents per ‘ton, but an- thracite was left nominally on the free list, as in the old law. We say nominally, for a difference was made in the definition of the term anthracite, which is of much importance. To ccme under that head coal must now contain at least 92 per cent fixed carbon, the limit having been raised by 7 per cent. : This is quite sufficient to shut out the Welsh anthracite, a considerable quantity of which has heretofore been brought to the Pacific coast, the‘number of ships com- ing to California ports for wheat cargoes insuring its carriage at rates little over the cost of loading and /unicading. This cozl, under the definition 6f tke new law, is now rated as bituminous, and will have to pay the duty of 67 cents per ton, which will add materially to itd price in the Califor- nia’ cities, where fyel is already dedrer than anywhere else in the United States. No other anthracite coal is imported into the country, and there are, indeed, no sources from which a supply can be drawn ouiside of the Welsh mines. The new ruling causes some unfavorable comment in California, since it not only in- creases the price there of the most conve- nient household fuel, but will also inci- dentally increase the ocean rates on wheat cargoes, should vessels lose a part of the return freight which has helped to pay their expenses. It will hardly increase the demand there for eastern anthracite, since vessei rates from Atlantic ports to Califor- nia are much higher than they are from Liverpool or Cardiff, owing to the lack of return freights. + e+___-- Solid oak table, square top and lower shelf, for 6Sc.

Church of Salem is an enthusiastic wheelman and a member of the L. A. W. The L. A. W. has sent notices to its mem- bers in South Jersey to refuse to pay toll on the gravel turnpikes, and the Rev. J. Ward Gamble lives up to all orders of the society. Between Pitman Grove, where Mr. Gamble and his family are stopping during camp meeting, and Glassboro is a tollgate, where the cyclers are asked to pay three cents toll. Mr. Gamble on Tues- day went through the gate and failed to even glance at the extended hand of the collector. Yesterday he again rode to Glassboro. The tollgate keeper had him in mind and dropped the gates on the rev- erend gentleman. Without saying a word Mr. Gamble dismounted, pushed his wheel under the gate, crawled under himself and then sped away for Glassboro. The gate was open when he returned.

Faom the New York World. Lena, the eight-year-old daughter of R. Mead, a well-to-do farmer of Mount Hope. died in intense agony last night of blood poisoning, the result of a spider's bite. Three weeks ago the child was playing under a grape arbor, when a big black-and- yeliow spider, lowering itself by its web from the vines overhead, alighted on the child’s face and bit her on the lip. The bite caused so Ifttle pain that the girl did not cry nor stop playing, but soon her lip began to swell so badly that she went to her mothe! The mother applied domestic remedies, t the swelling grew worse, ané@ a doctor summoned. When he arrived, six after the bite had been received, the through the child’ whole system.
