Him Down.

A rooster belonging to a College
street man got out the other evening
and tlelG about the yard, deXterously
eluding every attempt to catch him till
the owner gave it up, and left him to
his fate. Next morning the rooster
was perched high in a tree, apparently
stiff and stark. The owner was con-
science-stricken. 81 ought to have
gone out after dark and got him. He
froze to death last night and l am to

knock him out of that tree. shall be
arrested for cruelty" he said to his
wife. So he went out, armed with a
couple of sticks of wood, says the Lew
iston (Me) Journal
These he threw at the frozen rooster
for an hour without success, and a
good-sized crowd of neighbors stood
about, suggesting ways to get the bird
down. One went and got revolver
and shot away al it for some time, but
the bird still sat there, immovable, its
head canted a little, and its eyes look
ing bleary. You Internal copper! Do
you expect to knock a frozen bird out
of tree with revolver? The bullets
would go right through it, and not
bulge it,"
After half an hour of these vain at
tempts the wife Of one of the neigh
bors came out with a long-handled
broom, and, waving it, said "Sh-shsh-
sh-sh." Up few The rooster, growing
loudly, and lit upon the ell of the
house, and finally, after a victorious
crow. settled down into the barn door,
and ran in among the hens.
