CENTRE HALL REPORTER. J Hall, P’a. June, Centre 19¢h. 18688 The Suicidal Cat. There was a man named Furguson, He lived on Market street, He had a speekled Thomas est That couldn't well he beat; He'd eateh more rats and mice and sich, Than forty eats eould eat. This cat would come iftto the room And climb upon a cheer, And there he'd sit and lick hisself And purr so awful queer, That Furguson would yell at him; But still he'd purr-severe. And then he'd climb the moonlit fence, And loaf around and howl, And spit, and claw another eat Alongside of the jowl, And then they both would shaketheir tails, And jump around and growl. And all the mothers in the street, Waked by the horrid din, Would rise right up and search their babes, To find some worrying pin; And still this vigorous eat would keep A hollerin’ like sin. And as for Mr. Furguson, "Twas more than he could bear, And so he hurled his boot-jack out, Right through the midnight air; But this vociterous Thomas cat, Not one cent did he care,— For still he howled and kept his fur A standin’ up on end, And his old spine a-doublin’ up As far as it would bend, As if his hopes of happiness Did on his lungs depend But while a curvin’ of his spine, And waitin’ to attack A cat upon the other fence, There came an awful erack ; And this here speckled Thomas cat Was busted in the back When Furguson came down next day, There lay his old feline, And not a life was left in him Although he had had nine, “All this here comes,” sasd Furgeson, “Of curvin’ of his spine,” Now all you men whose tender hearts This painful tale doth rack, Just take this moral to yourselves, All of you, white and black; Don’t ever go like this here cat, To gettin’ up your tg back 1 The President of a | League at Elyton, Ala., He was caught in the 1s in jal fi | stealing bacon. act.
