From the Portland Press Linn Ber-
ry has big chicken farm in West Bux-
ton, and has several hundred hens. He
brings many eggs and chickens dead
and dressed) to Portland He loads his
wagon the night before and starts at
3 a. m. He has only to hitch up the
horses and drive off. 1t is a drive Of
seventeen miles TO this city. He
reached here at just about sunrise. AS
he approached the United States hotel
to deliver some produce someone shout
ed at him and asked him IL he had
brought his hens to market rOOsting
on the crossbar under the wagon. He
paid no attention, supposing the man
was guying him. But when he stopped
at the hotel and others called his at
tention to four hens roosting under the
wagon and just waking up, IL was
doubtful which was the most aston
ished, Mr. Berry or the hens. Two OF
the latter were panic stricken AID
started down Federal street One was
caught on Temple street and the other
got down almost to Exchange street
before il was captured The cook at
the hotel bought the four hens for 81
and took them home How many hens
were asleep under the wagon when Mr.
Berry started from home he can't tell,
but IL is very possible that there were
more than four.

rhe ro.tel 500 and the Cat..

The cats are invariably treated with
great kindness by the postal STAFF. Kit
tens are born in all sorts of odd cor
ners, even occasionally under a desk
or table in the sorting office. One cat
has successfully reared during the
present year a family of six in the reg
istered letter department, but this, OF
course, is exceptional fhey are gem
orally born in the kitchens, as there
are plenty Of old wornout coats about
which make a comfortable bed. AS
soon as they are old enough some one
requiring a cat takes one home to the
domestic hearth There is often a
keen struggle for their possession and
a man will feed both mother and kit
ten on milk and watch them with an
anxious eye only to find in the end that
he is a day too late, someone having
forestalled him and quietly disappeared
with the coveted Westminster
Gazette.
