A FOWL PROCEEDING
The Troubles of an Artificial
Chicken Hatcher.

Ed. BULLETIN; Brother SaNre OF
the Belly Band received an incubator
from California some time since. He
set it up and tried TO work it, but it
took al least 10 DAYS before he could
get it in working order, First the
lamp upset, next the netting caught
fire. Several OF Candelaria's promi-
nent citizens gave the desired inf rma-
ton how it should be done. AT last
he got it in working order The eflce
of the Belly Band is close to China
town. Fire crackers occasionally
make night hidcous, and frequently
caused brother s. to indulge in pro
family. The machine has sufficient
capacity for 100 eggs. 1t is needless
to say that the business requires a deaf
of attention. Everything WAS gong
along nicely-eggs chipping, chickens
chlrping and a pleased expression stole
over his benign counlensnce at the
result of his labors. Last Monday an
almond eyed heather who made win
ning at a tan game in Chinatown en-
pended two hlttee for fire crackers and
turned them loose in the street. The
Noise was defeaning, tho results MS
destructive as th1nder storm. Wyan.
dottes, Brahmas, Black Spanish and
Plymouth Rock were knocked out.
1t was too much for him to stand; he
seized stick OF cord wood and made
rush for the street, to annihilate that
Heather Chinee. Before he reached
the doer he got knocked Out in the
first round for he fell over rocking
chair. One OF Candelaria's successful
medical practitioners. The O'Calla-
ghsn, who happened to be passing,
rushed 10 his assistance and used re-
sloratives, etc. When careful in
ventory was taken he was minus two
front teeth whilst his sinister optic was
Ia mourning Tor the loss, and The
O'Callaghan NJ. ID. says he is also
suffering from Enlarged Bursa (what
the latter means deponen, sayeth not.)
The Chnaman was arrested. Hon.
Daniel Holland, counsel for the defense,
Judge Curler for the prosecution
Counsel for the defense INDUCED in Il
novel idea, which had the effect OF
clearing his client. The older mem
bers of Esmeralda County Bar are well
acquainted with the fertile resources
oil Attorney Holland, whilst the
younger members cannot fail TO note
the intelligence of a Candelaria jury.
Brother Holland informed the jury that
the Chinaman was gardener, that
water rates were high, that his client
belonged TO the more progressive dis
ciples of the school OF Cenfucius, also
that he had read in the North Amerl-
can Review of the efforts made by
scientific men to produce rain from the
clouds by explosives. If his client had
the means to purchase dynamite he
would experiment with il in preference
to fire crackers. As there were several
properly holders on the jury whose
residences are oonvenieGt TO China
town, the Celestial was acquitted.
Judge Curler was mot ia it," Ten
members of the Committee of Public
Safety waited on the Chlnaman that
evening. When last seen his queue was
at an angle of As degrees and he was
making rapid strides for Columbus.
Brother Sayre will have a leader in
this weeks issue, which he hopes will
influence Senators Jones and Stewart
when the Geary bill comes before the
Senate. headed in large type, "THE
CHINESE MUST CO."
