THE IMiW POSTPONED.
Bat Will I'.e Chen This I.vni:i;r.
The Mnguire, Hial k. Morris com
pa arrived from San Francisco on
the steamer State of California at
3:3il yesterday afternoon. "They
were to appear in "The Great Me
tropolis,' but they had so much
scenery aboard that ihe lateness of
the hour made it impossible for them
to have it pro.crly placed.
So much depends on the nrrauge
incut and settiug of stage eflecLs and
in this case there is such a wealth of
scenery that the company wisely con
cluded that it would be belter to have
an artistic success even at the ex
pense of a little delay.
Accordingly the play was not put on
the stage labt night, but will be pre
sented this evening, and to-morrow
evening with all the careful detail and
scenic surroundings that have made
that piny so continued a success.

AX INVASION OF CATS.
A rellnc Army Turned IiOOc in .1 Tor.n
On the Mississippi.
i Three men two canuers and a A meeting of the executive commit
newspaper reporter were in a barber tec of the Oregon Pioneer and Ilistor
shop yesterday, waitinir their turn, ical society consisting of E. "NY. ?.Ior-
They looked at Pucl: and Harper's
and talked about the ice at The Dalies
and the prize fight that an ex-mayor
i"i" i' -v iur, anu iois 01 ouier.iu spec:;:! &uisiuu t.nu.i iu uou-
things, and at last got talking about sidcr a communication received from
cats.
"When I was living in a steamboat
town on the Mississippi," remarked
one of those present, "thero was a fel-
low who mit tin n vprv Tinnt inh nu lhf ,
inhabitants, against whom he must
have had some terrible grudge. He
came into the town one day and dis-1
tributed hand bills right and left, ink- 1
ing special pains to put as manv of
them as possible into the hands of
farmers, who had come in to sell their
grain.
'That was before the railroads came
1 to take business awav from the rier
towns, some of v;hich had an immense
trade. The place I was in had 8.000 I
I or 10,000 inhabitants and was the ship-1
ping port for all the grain raised Tor
miles around, :is well as the place
where the farmers obtained all their
supplies."
"These bills that were .so freely
scattered about plated that the adver
tiser had a contract with a certain 1
steamboat company fur furnishing a
large number ot cats to destroy tne
rats and mice that were very numer
ous about the wharehouses at difier
ent landings along the river. He
therefore offered S3 for each full
grown torn cat, S2 for each healthy
female puss and 50 cents a head for
kittens old enough to get their own
living. All the cats were to be de
livered at a certain place in the town
on a Thursday evening the night
that a particular boat was due.
j "Well, that Thursday afternoon
I came and the .streets of the town were
just crowded with people. They came
' in wagons, on foot and on horseback,
i and every person carried a sack, some
j of them several. It reminded m of
1 the old riddle about St. Tves:
33ach wife had seven sacks.
Each sack had seveu caL,
Eich cut had seven kits.
Kits. cats, packs and wives.
How .nanj' were going to Si. Ives?
"13y evening between :,001 antlOOO
eats had been
fenceless eitv.
brought into that de-.
They were left in and '
of bows attracted by the eater-wauling
went to the old building '
and began amusing themselves by J
untying the bags and letting out the '
cats. Of couie tho cats began fight
ing and raised a noise like 10,000 de
mons. Suddenly a stampede occurred
and the animals rushed pell-mell into
the crowd, craw ling over people, jump
ing and fighting, and climbing walls
and loofs in a mad nice for liberty.
The boj's took after the cat, and tho ,
men joined in, determined to rid ihe
imui u i ie it-Hiii- iiivjiuers. ii.u next 1
morning there were a good many stray ,
cats seen aooivt in nack varus, ami a
good many dead ones Ijing in ihe
streets and alley. One boatman said
he counted over 400 dead cats in the
river. The man who perpetrated the
joke was never seen in ihe place again,
luckily for him.'
"Do you expect an bod to believe
this yam?' asked a man of about the
first speaker's age.
"Has aubody been aked lo believe
it?' was the rejoinder. And till were
silent, and the only sound audible was 1
the click, click of ihe touorial shears
echoiug through the shop.

Tun Astohian takes this occasion to
express its sincere and grateful ap
preciation of the kindness and uniform
courtesy ot Collector Hobson and his
assistants, one and all, during their
official incumbency. None of them
were ever too busy or hurried to give
a reporter information, and the favors
in that line have been many.

He said that McCarthy was only
play for him aud that ho really pitied

during the contest was not put on for
effect, but he knew the man was having
hard work to come to him at
the beginning of each round.
When asked about LaBlanchc and
the prospects of a fight with him, he
said: "LaBlanche knows he has got to

EARLY RISING.

All the talk about early rising is

have risen early everj-morning. Their
energies are deadened, their imagina
lions are heavy, their spirits are de
pressed. It is said you can work so well in
tho morning. Some people can, but
others can work best at night; others,
again in the afternoon. Long trial
and experiment form the only con
clusive lasts upon these points. As
for gelling up early because Professor
AU-Gnmmon'lins written letters to the
papers proving the necessity of it, let
no one be goose enough to do it N
We all know the model man, aged
1 80: "I invariably rise at 5; I work
three hours, take a light breakfast
namely, a cracker and a pinch of salt;
work live hoars more; never smoke,
never drink anything but barley-water;
eat no dinner, and go to bed at G
o'clock in the ecning.' If any
