Edward Trainor, who lives about two
miles east Of the village, is mourning
the loss of IL fine game chickens, but
is rejoicing in the fact that the thief
came to an untimelyend about 2 o'clock
this morning.
Eleven out of a flock of 1S had been
taken UP to last night. Shortly after
! o'clock this morning there was a
great clatter In the Trainor hencoop
and hastily dressing Edward and his
brother, Frank, went to the scene OF
the disturbance, taking along a dog
and gun. 1t took but a second in the
clear outdoor atmosphere to discover

chickens.
