HER CAT IN HER POCKET.

Bismarck Travels In State Wherever His Mistress Goes.

A woman walked into the breakfast room of one of Chicago's swell hotels, dressed in traveling costume and carry- ing on her arm acape of plaid cloth, which she hung over the chair next at table, disposing of it with some care, as if it might be of value.

Then ake gave her attention to the menu and discussed a service of fruit while she waited for her order. She was roused from a pleasing study of her plate by a series of ‘‘Ohs!’’ and ‘‘Ahs!’’ and ‘*What a darling!’ and a hasty glance showed her a big white Angora cat seat- ed gracefully on the vacant chair at her side.

‘Oh, Bismarck, you dreadful cat!’’ she said, as the head waiter approached with a look in his eye that boded no good to the cat.

‘“‘I mus’ put him out, madam,’’ he said, with the assurance that goes with head waiters.

But his mistress clicked her fingers and the cat disappeared. Every eye was upon him, yet no one saw him go. The waiter looked on the chair and under it, but pussy had vanished like a dream.

‘*Find the cat—he is in the picture somewhere, ’’ remarked the owner of the pet, as she buttered her toast. But the cat did not come back, and it was not until the woman had finished her break- fast and was leaving the table, with her traveling cape thrown over her arm, that the mystery of the animal’s disap- pearance was explained, and pussy’s head was allowed to peep from a ca- pacious inside pocket in that cape.

‘*He has traveled in that pocket from the Pacific coust, and this is the first time he has given away his hiding place,’’ said his mistress. ‘‘He will not pur for fear of being found, but he is near his journey’s end now and is get- ting tired. This cape is his exclusive property, and the pocket is his private ear. ’’—Chicago Times-Herald.

a Dangers From Violent Exercise. There is considerable opirion as to the safety with which wo- mer may indulge in violent exercise in views of possible injury. As regard the heart, there appears to be but one opin- ion-—namely, that that organ, accus- tomed to a quiet life, may be danger: ously and permanently crippled by the excessive strain in athletic sports. Ex- perience in medical practice, says an eminent authority, teaches that the pa- tient with a weak heart must be ex- tremely cautious in his exercises, and the demonstration of a dilatation of the healthy heart under sudden, violent, exhausting effort which has been made was of a surprising nature. Many clin- ical observers in Germany and in this country have detected by percussion and observation of the changes in the heart beats that there is under strain and exer- ticn considerable dilatation, which con- tinues for a shorter or longer time after the exertion is over. Ocular proof of this has been afforded by the Roentgen rays. This shows not only the need of caution by those in good health, but more particularly so in the case of those who suffer from any weakness, consti- tutional or otherwise, in this organ.— New York Ledger.

THE BLACK DEATH. -

THAT FEARFUL PLAGUE THAT FOL- LOWS IN THE WAKE OF WAR.

In the Fourteenth Century It Swept the Whole of Europe, Killing Twenty-five Millions of Peopie In Three Years—The Pestilence In London,

The plague, or pestilence, that mys- terious and fearful visitation which has moved its hosts in the wake of armies to slay more than waritself, is supposed to have first originated among the dense masses of people whe crowded together in the great cities of Asia and Egypt, or who formed the encampment of Xerxes, Cyrus. and Tamerlane the Tartar. It probably sprang from the impurity which must have existed in the midst of such vast gatherings and in part also from leaving the unburied dead upon the field of battle. At any rate the germs of this fearful human poison have always been most active where condi- tions similar tothose have prevailed. It has always been war and the march of armies that has spread it broadcast over the world from time to time, and as var became less frequent and less worldwide the frequency and extent of these ravages have lessened also.

The first recorded outbreak of the plague in Europe occurred in the six- teenth century. It came from lower Egypt. This was the first lapping of the wave that reached into the east again, there ¢- stay its movement so far as the west wus concerned until 544 A. D., when the returning legions of the Em- peror Justinian brought it again into the western world from the battlefields of Persia. Constantsnople was the first place it attacked. Here in a single day as many as 10,000 persons are said to have fallen victims to it. But the plague did not stop with Constantinople. It had found a too congenial soil in En- rope, which was little else than one great battlefield at the time. It was

carried into Gaul, where it followed close in the wake of the Frankish armies, and from Gaul it moved into

Italy, with the Lombards, and so devas- tated the country as to leave ‘t entirely at the mercy of the invaders.

The various crusades, which extended over a space of about 200 years, no doubt did much to hold the pestilence in Europe, for they served to keep open the channels of intercourse between the east and the west. Periodic epidemics were common during their continuance, znd these seem to have culminated in the fourteenth century with what is known in history as the black death. The black death was more fatal to hu- man life than any other single cause since the world began. The havoc of war

was nothing in comparison to it It |

swept the whole of Euope, leaving in its path such misery and destitution as the world had never known. It killed in three years some 25,000,000 of people. Such figures stagger the comprehension, but the records of the tin.e cannot he doubted. The entire population of Eu- rope is estimated to have been about 100,000,000—key#t down as it was by the constant warfare—and of these 100,- 000,000 at least a fourth perished.

The ravages of the plague in Italy, where it came in the track of the war of the Guelphs and Ghibellines, was particularly disastrous to mankind. It raged with terrible fury in Naples, where 60,000 persons are said to have died. It fell upon Pisa and seven out of every ten perished. It utterly and for- ever destroyed the prosperity of Sieaa. Florence also suffered severely, while 100,000 of the inhabitants of Venice were literally wiped off the facerof the earth. From Italy it moved into France, where the mortality was almost as great; in Paris alone 50,000 people died from it. One of the worst features pre- sented by the history of the black death was the cruel persecution it aroused against the Jews. They were supposed to have infected the air in some mys- terious manner, and they were accused ef having poisoned the wells and

springs. In Strassburg 2,000 of them were buried alive in their own burial ground.

The order of the Flagellanto arose at this time, coming from the belief that the sinsof the world had at last brought down the wrath of heaven. It was the beginning of the so called Hundred Years’ war that carried the black death into England, where in London its vic- tims numbered 100,000. When at last the plague had worked its ravages, it doubled back over its course, to disap- pear in the east. In 1845 it appeared again in England, first among the sol- diers of Richmond after the battle of Bosworth Field, and when the victo- rious army marched to London the plague went with them to work its havoc there. As long as it lasted the mortality was as great as that caused by the black death half a century be- fore. Five thousand people died in five weeks, and then the plague left London as suddenly as it had appeared there, to sweep over the rest of England.

In Scotland the plague of 1568 came immediately after the battle of Larg- side, when Queen Mary was dethroned, but no records of the mortality it occa- sioned seem to have been preserved. The plague visited London in 1675. This followed after the civil war which ended with the death of Charles II, but so many years intervened that,it is im- possible to trace any connection between the two events. In modern wars danger from the plague seems gradually to have lessened, perhaps as a result of better sanitary conditions maintained by the armies of today.—Philadelphia Press.
