AS he calculated these words, the
lion-tamer strobe back and forth in
my room. There was a pathos in his
grief and rage that touched me even
more than my own disappointment
did.

The train was brought into the city

road into the Union station yards.
From the Union station yards the train
was taken as far as Union avenue.
where it was switched onto the Rock

THANKSGIVING IN CHICAGO.
With the trimmings the Annual
Feast Must lave Cost h City
About S1,5OO,OOO.

Chicago, Nov. 26.-Chicagoans ate
1000 turkeys, weighing nearly 1,50O,-
600 pounds, or three-Quarters OF o
pound of turkey for every man, woman
and child in the city, Thanksgiving
day. Besides this they consumed $4,000
pumpkins, $500 barrels of cranberries
and nearly 500, 900 punches of celery.
These estimates are made by the
South Water street merchants, based
on the receipts and sales Of the three
days preceding the holiday. South Wa
ter street, which is Chicago's greatest
market, calculates that the sales in
the city for the three days were as
follows: Turkeys, 100000; ducks, 3d.
900; geese, 1900; chickens, $4,000.
This, according to the export Stats
ticians. provides Thanksgiving dinners
for 1890 families of Chicago and
leaves 10000 families without Thanks
giving feasts unless they substituted
roast beef, pork Of cheaper meats for
the turkey of tradition. The sales OF
corned beef in some districts of the
city indicated that many families made
their Thanksgiving season OF corned
beef and what goes with it.
Chicago's Thanksgiving turkey sup
ply cost the consumer probably $780,
900, and the trimmings" ETC., made
the total cost of Thanksgiving dinner
reach 81, 500, 900, counting 325,000 fam
lilies to be fed.
The turkeys that adorned Chicago
tables would make a pile higher than
the Masonic temple.
