CAT AN EXPERT Has Learned Meaning of Line in Water, and Has the Patience of the Perfect Angler. Cats are known to be fond of fish, but it Is not every cat that is willing to go out and catch enough fresh fish to furnish his own meal and supply the family breakfast table with the same food. Such an animal exists in Miami, Fla. however, and daily watches a hand line which his owner places in the water. When the cork bobbles the cat dashes to the office of an amusement company and sets up a loud mewing. Following the cat's footsteps to the place where the line has been dropped, whoever is on duty at the office hauls in the fish to the tuneful purring of the proud and sat- cat. Some months ago the cat chanced to be on the dock when a was pulled In. He learned that his favorite food came from the water and was caught on the end of a line. Since that any line with one end In the water and one on the dock has been a source of unfailing interest to the cat. The cat's patience would put the renowned Izaak Walton to shame, for he will spend hours sitting by a line without stirring. Sometimes the cat will sit by the side of a fisherman and will tell his human companion by his mewing when a fish is beginning to nibble at the bait before the fisher- man has suspected that the bait Is being dallied with.

After the successful fairs of 1911 and 1912, the absence of one this year was all the more noticeable. Circumstances arose this year that could not be overcome in time for the fair to be held, hence It was abandon- ed. If a fair Is to be held next year, and by all means one should be, there is no time to lose In beginning ration for it. At the same time it Is well to bear mind that U is not probable that the fairs can continue to be held under the same conditions as heretofore. It is useless to try to proceed without first securing a permanent location with suitable build If this is done, Pitt county can hold as good fairs every year as any Th-- Reflector has already heard one count in the state, man say that he would give the free use o five acres of land for fair poses, provided it was kept free from horse raring and all kinds of shows.

NORFOLK. Dec. burial of Lloyd Gordon, whose death occurred Saturday, took cemetery yesterday. There was no funeral and the burial was made ac- cording t- wishes of the deceased to far as It practical to carry these out. Mr. Gordon asked that he be not buried in a coffin, but that his body simply be wrapped up in a cloth and laid to rest mother earth with only a board covering over his face. The request was complied with to the ex- tent that a grave was dug ed and the two sides of a ed box were placed on the Bides of the grave. There was no bottom and the body was laid to rest on mother earth as the asked. A lox top was neatly laid over the sides of the grave, the dirt thrown In with the grave covered over. There were no carriages nor mourn- The body was carried In an basket and at the cemetery was lifted from the basket and de- in the ground as described. Lloyd Gorden was quite eccentric No such peculiar burial has in this section since that of John C. P. who lived in South Ports- mouth, and requested that he be buried on Ills home lot under a tree at midnight. The request was com- piled with. Mr. Gordon was for many years In the hat business Norfolk, being at one time associated with J. W. Gilmer the latter conducted Norfolk's leading hat store on the site of what is now the Miller, and Swartz Main street store. Lloyd Gordon was known to all the older residents of Nor- folk. He was affable, agreeable man and was well liked. He was frugal and saved some money, leaving prob- ably when lie died a small estate. He bought and sold lots and for a long time was the owner of a very cottage at Seventh street, Reach, Which he sold only a year or so ago. He had an Interest ii the Church street property where he lived until Ills death. Mr. Gordon bad been In poor health for some years past, but until a few months ago was frequently seen down town.
