no deliveries are made in Tolleston
but this they refused to do
Twelve Little Chicks Arrive.
In the meantime Mrs. Hen began to
lay eggs and Mr.. Rooster brought
back rural memories to the office
renters in the Reynolds building by
his loud growing. For awhile it was
suspected that the expressmen were
devouring the eggs but such wasn't
the case. Instead they put Mrs. Hen
to setting and four days ago a dozen
little chicklets broke through their
sells. They were given the full run
of the express office and Mr.. Rooster
lcrowed louder than ever.
Red Tape Gets Tighter.
In the meantime orders came from
the Chicago office to send back the
two chickens but as they now numb
cred fourteen Chicago refused to ac-
cept the extra twelve as only two had
been shipped and the agent was too
kind hearted to separate the little
chicklets from the mother.
Hearing that young ones had arriv-
ed the Tolleston man changed his
mind and came to the express office
and put in a claim for the fourteen
chickens. However the delivery bill
says that he is to get but two and he
won't accept two but demands four
teen.
Just what is to be done hasn't been
Strengthened out The Tolleston man
won't take the two and the agent
won't give him the fourteen and the
Chicago office refuses to recognize
the existence of the twelve young
ones
And More Chicks Are Coming.
And in the meantime the whole
chicken family is bieng kept at the
Gary office at the company's expense
and according to latest reports the
situation is likely to become more
entang1ed as Mother Hen has started
to laying again and the bewildered
agent is wondering what will happen
If Mrs. Hen has second brood.
So far, more than two hundred let
ters have been written back and forth
between the shipper. the Gary office,
(, the Chicago office and the To1leston
man in regard to the mixup.

GETTING READY FOR
APRIL COPPER SALES

Tho eastern copper comment features
mainly the reduced demand for the red
metal, which is bringing down tho price
a shade below 14a cents a pound For
eign demand seems smaller, or else ey
ports are greatly increased, for the
European visible supply Of copper was
reduced only about $4,000 pounds be-
tween January 10 and February
No fear is expressed over the de-
creased demand. this being merely a
temporary condition. for tho metal Is well
sold ahead for February and March, and
the next big movement by the buyin 2
element Will be for APRIL and May. The
copper situation is healthy. strong and

consumer now creates for copper under
