Iy, with much painting and tugging,
wriggled his plump, round body into
the hen-house. He walked over where
lonesome looking hen was sitting
patiently on a nest. He put out a
cautious hand and the hen promptly
gave it vicious peck.
Billy" he called angrily, "you got
to come in here and hold this old
chicken; she's bout the terribest
pecker they is"
Billy stuck his head in the little
square hole. GO at her from behind"
he suggested; put yo' hand under
her easy like, an don let her know
what you's up to-"
Jimmy tried to follow these instruc-
tions, but received another peck for
his pains. He promptly mutinied.
"If you want any eggs" he de-
clared, scowling at the face framed in
the aperture, you can come get em
yourself. I done monkeyed with this

"She put fifteen" was the response,
IAN don't believe she'd want me to

The Aborn Opera Company which for
some years has upheld IN the provinces

OF Humperd!ncks "Hansel ind Gretcl"
and tho audience present was privileged to

Grand Opera House In a musical comedy
entitled I'm the Jungles" II is unneces-
sary to say that some very good singing
Of tuneful melodies marked the perform
ance. julius Glenn added silver thread
OF good old minstrel humor. But the COM
bnaton was marred somewhat by certain

The audience was at least half negro.
which accounted to some degree for rho
enthusiasm with which It encored every
number. A pretty chorus OF octoroons
elected tho vociferous admiration OF the
darker half, which showed much the same
generation for BLACK PATTI (SIssIeretta

:. K. STALL0 A WITNESS
Tells of His Relations with Mt.
Vernon Bankers Now on Trial.

Edmund X. Staio. son-in-law OF the
late Alexander Mcdonald the Standard
OH man, and now administrator Of his
estate. was called as witness yesterday at
the trial of Herbert T. jennings, former
president. and Samuel *. Raymond,
former cashier. OF the Mount Vernon Ma
tional Bank. who are charged With msap-
plication of the banks funds.
Asked what his business was. Mr. Stallo
said:
Attending my own affairs and those OF
my children"
He testified that he was associated with
Mr.. Jennings In the Broadway and Forty
third Street Building Company and In the
Hub Building Company. but he had moth
ing to do with the purchase by Jennings
of the First National Bank Of Oneonta.
y. Y. except that Mr.. Mcdonald had a
financial interest In that bank.
For the Fitzgerald Building. which was
put I'D at Broadway and 4Sd street, Mr..
Stailo said he secured from Mr.. Mcdonald
10000 in cash for $4,000 in second mort
gage bonds and $4,000 in stock. The
share of Jennings in the enterprise was to
be 10000 cash and 10000 in stock.
When he became administrator OF the
Mcdonald estate, Mr. Stallo testified, he
deposited with the Mount Vernon National
Bank S2S,233 81 OF the estates money.
Later, he said, he gave Jennings a check
for SO, 139 Is. and told him TO get the coun-
ter signature Of the National Surety Com
pany, which was Joint administrator of
the Mcdonald estate
The check was cashed Mr.. Stallo testi-
fed, on the same day without the counter
signature, and it bore Samuel X. Ray
mond's note on II: DO use in bal" 1t
Is expected that Mr.. Stallo will tell to-
morrow what was done with the money
a. far as ne knows.
The Indictment against Jennings and
RAYMOND charged that this transaction III
itself constituted embezzlement.
