FEATHERED LIVE TURKEY.

Alb Hok and Kee Hok were ar
rested by Humane Officer Apana
aud others this morning in their
store next to the Metropolitan
Meat Market on King street.
They were caught feathering live
turkeys and were charged with
cruelty to animals which, 10 law,
Included any living creature.
The trial came off in the Police
Court at about 1915 o'clock.
Both defendants pleaded guilty.
Two live turkeys with nearly all
their feathers plucked we're pro.
duced as evidence. The China
man had no reason whatever to
give for their action and Judge
Wilcox attributed it to their "mls'
cradle coolie" nature. A fine OF
so aud imprisonment for ten
days was imposed by Judge VIII
coz who remarked, in passing,
that the turkeys should BE- killed
and placed en- ice in order that
they might be produced as evid
