F. IF. Murray, of L'C. North Siv
teenth street, had tho most stren
; uouj experience of his life early this
morning, when he attempted to break
up a chorus of cats that were making
'he night hideous in the yard below
liis window. Murray dispersed the
oats, all right, but he's a patient at
Hahnemann hospital himself, and half
tile portable articles that adorned his
; room are in pieces in the back yard
where the cats gathered for the noc
turnal serenade.
Murray lias a rear room in the
house and after arriving home late
last night didn't like the discord of
the backyard chorus. lie tried to
sleep and couldn't, so he gathered up
a few loose articles and hurled them
at the tabbies.
Finally, when thorn was nothing
else left to throw. Murra> fllle< 1 the
wash bowl with water and loaning far
out of tho window, mado ready t<>
dronch tho oats. Ho did oven more.
Howl and water all w nt together, and
almost immediately after them < aim
Murray, who lost his balance In loan
ing too far out of tho window. ?
Tho water and the breaking of tin
howl frightened tho cats away and
mado such a noise that half the ncigb>
horhood was awakened. One woman
whoso slumbers had boon disturbed by
tho cats looked out of tho window Jn?l
In time to see Murray dlvit out of his
window. She yelled "murder," and a
few other things, and attracted a po
liceman, who took Murray to th-' ho
pital. ? Philadelphia Times.
