'Well, ma'am," the sergeant was
slowly writing and trying to live down
a smile, "well, ma'am, most av thin is
out in Washington park drillin'. How
many do y want?"
81 need 25 men!" She was tapping
the counter with her badge and the
floor with her toe, impatient for the
fray.
''Oh, it's rite, is it?"
"An assemblage that may turn into a
riot, lot of-rowdies with a bagful of
poor unfortunate roosters which they
propose to make fight till they kill each
other, and in respectable neighbor-
hood, too
can y'r sure they had roosthers?"
'Why, I heard them crow!"
''Well. ma'am, you may think it
quare, but it's as thrde as gospel some
hens do be known to crow!" and the
old wag behind the desk winked at the
fat policeman who walked in.
''Dinny," he whispered, "go up wild

Dinny strolled around the railing.

is ut?''
where are your men?" she snapped,
with martial fire.
men? I haven't any men! It's
nothin' but cock-fight, aint it, sar-
CENT?"
Then she blazed up like fambeau
club and gave Dinny and the sergeant a
piece of her mind. The idea of at
tempting to apprehend band of ruff
fans with only one policeman! From
her other pistol pocket she pulled a
notebook and pencil and demanded the
names of sergeant and patrolman. She
washed her hands of all responsibility
for the life and safety of Dinny, and
warned the sergeant that if the raid
failed Chief Ripley would learn all.
Dinny looked at her in the rayless, foot
less manner of lay figure till she
founced out of the station, Kissing:
"I'll do my duty" and then he glared at
the sergeant and followed in body.
Half an hour later the sergeant in
his shirtsleeves met the raiders at the
door. "Joan av Arch" dragging mis-
erable half-grown boy, led the way. He
had a scrappy-looking cock of the Irish
gray variety under his arm. Two
dingy boys, each burdened with two
bags, followed. Dinny, sweating like
five cents worth of lard in paper
bag, next steamed into the roundhouse
with well-heeled shawl-neck in one
hand and club in the other. Riley, of
Riley's barn, brought up the rear.

n,ock preed. Are Unpopular,

That the black varieties are not
more generally popular is due prin-
cipally to the prejudice against them
as dressed poultry. Consumers of
poultry object to dark legs, to white
skin and to dark pin feathers in the
carcass. Now, prejudice Of this kind
has to be reckoned with and consid-
cred by the poultryman, and it must
be taken at its face value. There is
no way of discounting it. Further
more, poultryman is safe in taking
it at its present value, for there is
not the least likelihood of its chang

FATTENING TURKEYS.
A Feeding Arrangement Which Helps
Them to Get Their share of
the Daily Rations.

1t is often desirable to hasten the
fattening of young turkeys. Where
there are chickens, young and old, the
feed scattered to the fowls mostly goes
to the chickens, as they are faster eat
ers than turkeys. Turkeys are not
as good "rustlers" as chickens. But to
get them ready for market, they must
be well fed. To give turkeys their just
share, and even more. of the feed, use

ToRRELLo, THE LION tanner.

Signor Torrello was tanner of lions
His name in the Bible was Brown
He could make the fierce brutes jump the
rope, walk the wire,
And turn somersets and lie down
Signor Torrello
Was quite a gay fellow
And rapidly winning renown.
Signor Torrello one day met maiden
Who. charmed by his soul-stirring art,
Stood in front of the cage and applauded
the lions
AS each played it's wonderful part
Signor Torrello,
In words that We're mellow.
Laid siege to the fair maiden's heart.
Signor Torrello could look at a lion
And cause it to cover in fear,
But the look that gave Leo the chhls had
no terrors
For the lady who's figuring here
Signor Torrello-
Alas! the poor fellow
| Was conducted around by the ear.
sienor Torrello no longer tames lions;
| The beasts turned against him one
| day;
: -he look that once charmed them had
I ceased to be potent.
They roared and refused to obey
l Signor Torrello,
Unfortunate fellow,
All bloody was hustled away.
;ignor Torrello, subdued and discour-
aged
Now works by the day with his hands
And is badgered for losing the look tina
made lions
In terror obey his commands
Signor Torreilo,
Alack, how he fell
His case as its own moral stands!
