The Ridiculous "Hen Derby" inst''
tuted by Sir John Ashley.
1t is said that the browning triumph
Of Sir John Ashley. that inventor OF
absurd contests. whose forte 1t was to
arrange races between animals which
nature apparently had made most un-
suitable for the purpose. was the In
stitution Of the only races that ever
took place between chickens.
The story is that the Idea came to
Sir John during visit to friend who
kept u large number Of hens. He no.
ticed how rapidly the chickens used to
scurry to their mother when food was
thrown to her. This furnished the In
genious Sir John with Il clever notion,
and ut mess. he then being Quartered
at Windsor. he accordingly unfolded
to his brother officers bis plans for
great chicken race.
He bought from q farmer hen and
brood Of chickens. Each officer was
to choose Il chicken and mark It with
ribbon. so that he could easily recog-
nize 1t. The chickens were to be placed
about fifty yards away from their
mother, aud whichever Of them reached
her tirst In answer to her cackle when
food was thrown to her was u be ad.
Judged the winner.
And 80 this ridiculous hen Derby"
came Off In the barracks ut Windsor
and was Witnessed by nearly the whole
brigade Of guards. who travelled down
from London especially to see it.
The race was such success that 1t
was arranged to repeat It the follow.
ing week. 1t might possibly, have be-
come a regular institution and u rae.
Ing stable of chickens might have been
added to the attractions at Windsor
bad not Sir Johns chicken won on
each occasion with such ease as to
cause suspicion In the minds Of his
competitors. Indeed. it was found. It
Is said. that in both races Sir John had
selected a sturdy young cockerel who
was much too speedy for his sisters
When victory was Il certainty for one
particular competitor the contest. OF
course. lost interest. and 80 the chicken
races at Windsor came to u sudden
end.-New York Herald.
