ACCUSED BY A FEATHERED WITNESS.
A COckatoo's Declaration Over the Body
of It's Murdered Master.

A Coclkatoo's Declaration Over the Body
of It's Murdered Master.
The officers who took the body of
William r. de Rose, alias La Chapelle,
from the bedroom in the rear of the
saloon where he was shot and killed by
Maggie Getty, tell a strange story of the
loquacity of a big cockatoo that be-
longed to the murdered man.
The body lay on the floor at the foot
of the bed when the officers arrived.
The bird was perched upon the mante[
piece overlooking the scene, and as the
bluecoats entered the room he screeched
out:
maggie did It'll Maggie did it'll"
The officers were startled. Where
did the strange voice come froms It
was not human voice, yet strangely
clear and distinct.
Maggie did it! Maggie did it Mag
gle did itl'' again came the voice. A
light was struck by this time, and then
the source of that inhuman screech was
discovered
"Mag"-
'Did whatF said one of the officers,
interrupting, as it was about to screech
out again.
''Shot him! Shot himl Shot him
Maggie did it." answered the cockatoo
The officers bent over the corpse
placed hand on the heart to see i
life were really extinct, then stooc
silently a moment, as if considering
the best means of removing it.
"Well, what are you going to d.
with itT' broke out the bird again.
"Going to take it to the morgue
Want to come alongw said the officer
bending an elbow out.for the cockatot
to perch upon.
= "Yes, I'll CO." saidsthe bird, hoppin
down on the elbow.
It was with much difficulty that tn
body was finally carried out to the pa
troll wagon without allowing the Dir
to escape. When this had been don
finally, and the bird safely locked |
the room, his ghoulish screech could b
: heard out on the street calling:
