BUFF COCHIN REFEREEs MATCH

livened the farm like decorum of the
second floor OF the poultry show exhibit
rooms yesterday afternoon, Several nit
game cocks owned by w. ]. Delaney oc-
cupy large partitioned coop and are
among the attractive exhibits on the
second floor. Last evening just about
o'clock, when the crowd of sightseers
was comparatively small, a facetious
stranger opened the door of one of the
cCops and took out a cock, placing it in
with it's next door neighbor The two
cocks wasted no time sparring for an
opening, but got right down to bust
ness. .-
Over across the way a Buff Cochin
rooster with a sporty eye thrust his
head far out of the coop while he watched
the match with the closeness of a ref
cree. Sensitive chickens retreated to the
privacy of their several apartments In
the rear turkeys, geese and ducks, real
izing something interesting was on and
that they weren't in it, filled the air with
lamentations.
The second round had commenced. One
of the belligerents had lost spur but
was still game. The referseing roos ser
was recklessly counting decapitation in
his efforts to see the finish There was
no finish however. A policeman and
several officials of the show appeared on
the scene. The cocks were separated.
The facetfous stranger deposited $40
for his fun. The crowd moved on
The biggest crowd of the week saw the
exhibit yesterday. The gate receipts and
the increasing interest that men, women
and children appear to be, taking in TIN
