TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS A PAIR.
Judge Scott's Assessment for Theft Of
Two Fowls

Turkeys at 500 a pair would be an ex-
pensve luxury and 1t would be safe to
say that If that was the standard rate
but few persons would have the national
fowl on their table for dinner tomorrow.
That was the price, however, which Judge
Scott placed on two fowls against Louis
Zeregas and James Comas, two youths
who were convicted In the Police Court
today for the theft of two live turkeys
Steven Bailey, resident of Virginia. ar
rived in the city last night with a load of
turkeys, which he intended disposing Of at
one Of the markets today. He left his
team at a stable near the corner of 18th
street and Ohio avenue last night, thinking
o'clock this morning Sergt. Williams and
Policeman Samson were near a lumber
yard in that vicinity and found two tur-
keys behind a pile Of lumber. Although
the fowls were dead they were still warm,
and the officers decided that 1t would be
wise to hide themselves nearby to see If
anyone returned for the birds They only
had to wait a few minutes when Zeregas
and Comas hove in sight and were about
to take possession of the birds when they
were placed under arrest. Later in the
day when they appeared in the Police
Court each claimed that the other had stole
the fowls. Judge Scott decided that each
was guilty and imposed fine of 800 on
each and directed that they should spend
oei days in Jail as the equivalent.
