m?? mM When Booth Said the Lord's Prayer, i m ? T New York Evening Post: Many rL years ago a number of foreign diplo- * ^ mats, three or four American states- ( men and two or threee stake profes- : sionals were together in the smoking c room of the old Fjfth Avenue hotel s when Edwin Booth came in. They t had conversation touching the Bible ^ as an inspired book. Lord Sackville. s then British minister to this country, asked Booth if he would not repeat f the Lord's Prayer for them. James t O'Neill was one of the professionals \ present and afterward gave an ac count of the incident. Few people had s toe temerity to niakt .such a icijiicsi of Booth, he said, as it was unusual f * 1 j True Economy is to 1 | tailorec A. E.

I "A cat sits on my fence even* g night and makes the night hideous s with his infernal row. Now I don't tj want to have any bother with mj |i neighbor, but this nuisance ha gnr.e j far enough, and I want you to advise s me what to do." The young lawyer looked as solemn 1! as an owl and answered not a word. j \ "I have a right to shoot that eat, | haven't I?" . | "I would hardly say that replied ? the young lawyer. "The cat does not | belong to you. as I understand." "No, but the fence does." | "Ah!" exclaimed the light of the | law, "then I think you have a perfect ? rigfct to tear down the fence"?Lon- g I don Ideas. o g And the Cat Followed. ^ This cat story coming from Bloom- | field, X. J., is worth reading. It may | be true and it may not. Ca?s are | peculiar animals to say the very S least: "Red, Bloomfield's champion torn- | cat pedestrian, today curled up on a | bag of bran and purred contentedly | while Lawrence Blarney, his owner | proprietor of a feed store, patiently ? applied soothing salve to his paws. | "Red's claws were down to the | quick by a hike of 67 miles from a | farm which Mr. Blarney sold a year | ago. Thinking his pet cat would pre- ? fer field mice to those of the feed | store variety, Mr. Blarney left Red 011 | the farm, but yesterday the exhaust- ? ed feline succeeded in finding the new | home of his master."
