CROW And CACKLE CHORUS
First Night Symphony of the Ma
tional Poultry Association.
Large Crowds Appreciate the inter-
esting Exhibits at Market Hall
Washington Carries Off Prizes.

The success of the National Poultry AS
siciation is this city is already as assured as
if il were planted ON a Plymouth rock.
About 5000 people attended the concert
at Market Hall last evening in which about
5000 hens, ducks, roosters, pigeons swans,
cats and chickens sang the leading roles.
It is by long odds the best place in the
city TO go, to learn all about the birth and
education of the arstrocracy of the rCost
and the mil-pund. The pond IL may be re-
marked is genuine pond in which pekin
ducks and swans swim and dive in genuine
Potomac water.
The attendance last night shows the pub
lie interest in the exhibition. The manage
ment has already begun to award the prizes

OF the great number of entries and their
high grade.

incubating rooms are among the most ~
