Lieutenant Thompson is authority for- the statement that the cat, perched on the cornice of the building made a leap of 22 feet into a tree and caught a spar- row. The Lieutenant has also watched the cat while bird catching, and has noted nine sparrows carried to a. spot, and after the hunt was over devoured one b one.

' Brutality In the German Army, In the German Reichstag during the da- bate on the war budget Herr Richter and Herr Hinze called ttention to the numer- ous cases of _suici in the army. It was shown that the cases were increasing every year, and Herr Richter boldy declared that the cause of the evil was the brutality of the ocers toward the soldiers, especially toward the recruits. Gen. Spitz said that the suicides which occurred among the troops stationed in provinces specially re- ferred to were not more numerous than the cases of suicides among civilians in the same provinces in which the soldiers n were recruited. The thing had no connec- tion whatever with the rigor of the military systemnor with the abuses which certain individuals from time to time were uilty of. Herr Richter said` that the rutal . treatment of the oicers and ~ the difficulty of obtaining iustice drove the soldiers to suicide. He insisted that an inquiry should be made into all those cases, and that the bodies should he handed. over for examina- tion to medical men unconnected with the i x 3 army; ? Intel!-eating Items.
