A Freak Chicken.

J. II. Hooper. who lives in the
West End, has a wonderful freak in
a four-legged chicken. which was
hatched last week. The legs are
perfectly formed and the bird seems
to be here to stay. It uses only one
set OF legs. the others appearing to
be shorter and not made TO walk on.
It IS as sprightly as others less IA
vored as to legs. and runs about the
house. chipping for some one to feed
and oct it. Mr.. Hooper will spare
no pains to raise the feathered quad
ruped. and expects to realize a small
fortune from some museum when il
is certain the bird will live.
