GOOD NEWS
For Methodist Preachers in the
Shape Of Alleged Chicken.

George Giles, colored, of Howell,
sent to this office yesterday a four
legged chicken. 1t was one of a brood
of seventeen, Matched last Saturday.
1t looked like any other little chick
except that the two extra legs grew
where the tail feathers ought to
make their appearance when it is a
few weeks older. The two extra legs
are grown together and it may be
called web-legged. The most dill
gent care will be given the chicken
and there is no reason why it should
not grow to the regular size. This
variety of chicken will be especially
adapted to the appetites of Method
list preachers and others.

small beginning they enlarged and

them. This was done after long

their little courses they became quite
