NO CROW, NO EARLY RISE

SOMERVILLE, Oct. 4.-James
Malloy, a farmer of Gateville, over
slept Monday morning because his
favOrite rooster failed to crow. The
rooster had been acting as an alarm
clock for three years in awaking
Malloy at the break of day. On 60
ing to his chicken coop to find why
the rooster had failed to go off as
usual, Malloy found that the bird
was missing. A few of its tail feath-
ers were on the floor of the coop,
with a hat and a cane. There is no
reason to believe they belonged to
the rooster.
In searching for the owner of the
hat. County Detective Totten discov-
cred Timothy Sullivan along the
Raritan river, near the Malloy farm.
Sullivan was without a hat, and
needed a cane because of the lack OF
toes. He was accompanied by a man
who gave his name as James Collins.
Both men were arrested on a charge
of stealing Malloy's rooster and
placed in the county Jail here to
await the action of the grand jury
