A Two Hundred Dollar Rooster.

A funny thing happened in Yer

flesh was used as an article Of diet,
it would have been a remarkable

Seventeenth ward Justice court now
has a rooster which represents a
value l him of 500 and odd cents.

Hidalgo sold to Leo Ditch Of Chi
niere-au-Tigre mot a blind tiger a
rooster for 81 1t was expressly
stated in the bill of sale that the
rooster was tall enough to eat
corn of the top Of a barrel Tony
first got his s. and then delivered
the poultry. A dispute then started
about the kind Of barrel which
would be used. Finally Tony told
Leo that his rooster could eat corn
off the top of any barrel II be was
on top himself. The case was car
ried to Judge O'Neil's court. 1t has
been pending two months; has cost
slG2 in witness fees, a. constable
fees, s. justice fees, while attorneys
fees and incidentals will bring the
total costs up TO 800. The court de-
cided against Hidalgo. AS the pay

The Milwaukee road officials have is
sued orders to division perintendents to
close all the small railroad stations along
the various branches and main lines that
the company can drop from its schedule
without any financial loss. The purpose
of this action is to shut off the unneces- (
5sary expense of keeping an operator sta

is not heavy enough to justify paying a
man the present scale of wages recently
demanded by all operators on the Mil

be dropped from the smaller branches.
The company will continue to operate
the trains thru these towns, but will stop
only when tagged.
