about in their pens as II they owned
the world. They forgot the time
honored custom of folding their
wings and going to "the hay" when
the sun sank behind the western hills
and crowed Justify under the false
glare Of the electric lights. Then, when
their eyes became droopy and they
bagan to feel as II they had under
gone their days toll. they refused to
come through and went to roost, even
while fanciers were cooling to them
In winsome tones.
A feature OF this mornings exhibit
was the "pinching' of o. II. Vogeler,
the dean of the chicken men of the
state. 1t Is alleged that he was caught
purloining eggs from a Sanders coop.
A kangaroo trial was. held and, In de-
fault of evidence, Mr.. Vogeler was
discharged. As a sort of pa..acea he
was donated a pair of Rhode Island
Reds by l.. c. Duncan. of the breeders
and fanciers of the city, who has done
much to make the show the great sue
cess which 1t has attained.
