"Ycs, this Is q good season Of the
ycnr for chicken thieves echoed De
tectiyc Block the other day, when Q
Washington Star reporter spoke to him
about hat class OF criminals .'Butsn.
he added, ''thcrc haven't been go many
cases Of chicken stealing lately MS there
used to be-. Reports Of that particular
sort Of stealing III few md far be-
tween. Now and then, however, three
or four jobs arc done in rs many nights,
md then nothing Is heard from tho
chicken man for n long time. This Is
just the time of tho year for them to
operate, but this year there seem to BIS
q scarcity of such thieves or else chicif-
n nrc not so plentiful. Those who
nrc called chicken thicvco do not con-
lac Themselves to robbing chicken
houses, but they steal NIL sorts of fowls,
turkeys, ducks or chickens And,
strange to say, this class of Offenders
confinc their stealing chiefly to fowls.
Seldom do they steal other articles, and
very few of them, indeed, are all-round
thieves"
"IIow do they manage to rob q house
of all its fowls without making noise
enough to rouse the owner Of tho
fowls2" the reporter inquired.
EASY enough" was the reply. "Tu
use their language, they charm tho
fowls before they attempt to lcavp
the premises with them, even if their
heads have to be taken OF. The thieves
who orc clasacd among tho good ones,,
or those who thoroughly understand
flntr l,,etnnee .eaIIA-, aaI-o . ~
chicken unless the number captured IA
very small. Sometimes" continued tho
detective, "thc thieves use sulphur to
ssranSlc the fowls with, and it acts like
n charm. They use n box of bluc-hcadcd
matches, which they dampcn and rub
against their hand SO that The fumes OF
sulphur that arise get into the lungs OF
the fowls and prevent them from crow
ing or cac!Slin2 or giving any alarm
whatever. Then the burglar stretches
in his arm and collects his fowls one By
one.
Everybody" said tho detective,
cant steal chicl,cns. There seems to
be some peculiar qualifications neccs-
sary to make n man IN expert at tho
business. An expert thief knows. we'll
the necessity Of always keeping n pot of
scaldinS water on the stove ut home, SO
that when lie returns with the plumber
ho can get the feathers OF them and
prepare them for market as soon Us
possible. Then he knows that the means
OF identification have been destroyed.
Often when such n robbery has been
committed carly in tho morning tho
chiclscns are on a bench in the market
before they arc cold.
MANY n night on my tour through
the city l have smcllcd smoke from
burning feathers and been satisfied thc
feathers were picked from stolen fowls
and were being burned to destroy their
