CHICKENS FEATHERS ABouNDED
In House of Dan Murphy in St. Albans,
According to Officers.

st. Albans. Dec. T.--Dan Murphy was
arrested Saturday evening near the Colo
NAL inn where he had gone to deliver a
quantity of chickens, he having furnished
Dir. g. G. Berkley with several earlier in
the week Murphy had IL fat ones in a
bag when Officer Robert Walker arrested
him. Murphy, with his plumber, was tax.
en- to the jail and locked up, while loudly
protesting his innocence.
Chief Mahoney, with search warrant,
went to Murphy's home, which Murphy
owns, on Federal street, and there found
among other things, number of tools
and implements, and a quantity OF grain
recently stolen from the city barn, a
rooster and four hens, alive, the remain
der OF l.. G.. Robinsons flock stolen the
first part of the week. together with
dozen other fowls, now awaiting identifi-
ca tion by their owners.
That Murphy had been doing an extern
sive business was evidenced by the feath-
ers and remains found on his property, il
being estimated that the feathers of 200
were found in the parlor and
kitchen in the process of being dried and
cured. Murphy and his family evidently
utilized everything
Murphy, who formerly was in the
army, and at one time lived in Barre,
was clever in his operations. and never
left clue by which he could be traced.
Suspicion WAS net directed toward him
until it became known that he was sell
ing chickens at bargain prices and MAX
ing his deliveries after dark. He has also
been selling chickens to Bevins, the meat
man.
The prisoner at first strongly pro-
claimed his innocence, denying every |
harge made, but finally, when questioned !
1y Chief Mahoney, confessed to the theft |

Constipation in summer time is

SHE FINISHED THE STORY.
Gladstone Couldn't Whistle, but His
Wife Could and Did.

Wife Could and Did.
Apparently the powers Of Mr.. Glad
stone as whistler were somewhat
limited, Judging by the amusing story
told by the Rev. T. Selby Henrey in
''Attic Salt Mr. Gladstone and Dean
Wellesley were schoolfellows at Elton.
and the friendship there commenced
continued throughout life. When they
were both in the sixties they met at q
little dinner party at the deanery at
Windsor, and the great statesman joc-
ularly said across the table to the
dean:
II say, old friend, have got a good
story for you about Harry Phillpotts.
bishop Of Exeter
Upon which Mrs. Gladstone hastily
interfered:
william, you must not tell that sto-
~ until the servants have left the
room"
When the psychological moment ar
lived Mr.. Gladstone said:
y "You know, Wellesley, that Bishop
PhiHpotts during his old age acquired
the habit of sitting up late at night,
with his chaplain. Well. one night he
was comfortably ensconced in his
study chair. with feet against the man
telpiece, dreamily looking into the fire,
when he heard footsteps at the door
and the noise of dress behind him.
without looking up he said in a
very endearing voice. thinking the In
truder to be his wife, What can do
for you, my little darling?' To his
great astonishment the trespasser
proved to be not his wife. but his
wife's maid And the only way in
which the poor bishop could give ex-
preston to his feelings was by long
drawn out, subdued whistle"
Mr.. Gladstone at this juncture said,
II cannot manage the whistle. SO I will
ask Catherine to give it," and Mrs
Gladstone finished the story by giving
the long drawn out whistle, to the de.
light not only Of the dean. but also Of
all the guests.
