The story of the two chickens and the
hungry burglar came out of Shortell in
a series of explosions interspersed with
Gaelic curses called down upon the heads
Of the thieves. 1t seems that Shorteil

ford such luxuries for q long time. But

he would have a chicken dinner so re
worked overtime every day during the

Late Saturday night Shortell went

bones So Shortell took them home,
where. being unmarried, he lives alone,

chickens on the gas stove. ii being his
intention to have fricasee with rice and
dumplings and all sorts of things on the

Shortell tended the chickens all day,
carefully watching the flow OF gas and
regulating the fire. At o'clock last
night the fowls reached the simmering

ready to be eaten.
Shortell was ready to eat but for
some reason-that even he can't explain
he walked down four flights of stairs
to the street There he sat on the stoop
and smoked a cigarette. That consumed
ten minutes, and then he wen< back to
eat his Sunday dinner.
Shortell knew the minute he reentered
his apartment that something was
wrong. because there was no longer an
odor of chickens. There was no odor
save that of burning gas. He ran into
the kitchen and found that not only his
chickens but the pot in which they had
been cooking as well were gone. He
learned how they had gone when he
found a window open on fire escape
and some chicken juice leading down the
steps to the ground.
The police sent out a general alarm

LOCOMOTIVE USED
TO HUNT ROBBERS
Police Armed With Rifles
Search Jersey Meadows
for Three Men.
LATTER GET ONLY IS CTS,
They Hold Up Switch Tower
man and Then Fire Upon
Tower.

Three armed men held up the Penn
sylvania Railroad switch tower at
Kearny junction, in the middle Of the
Jersey Meadows, early yesterday morn
ing. Disgruntled that Joseph May, 1e
year old towermen. had only rs cents
when they expected to find at least his
weeks salary, Saturday having been
payday, they drove him back into the
tower and emptied their revolvers Mt It.
The bullets crashed through the glass
overhead and splintered the wood near
him az he crouched in a corner. May
succeeded in telephoning to John Coax
ley, chief of the Pennsylvania Railroad
police at Jersey City. Coakley sent word
to the police at Kearny, where Lieut..
George Holt furnished seven men, armed
with the Winchester rifles for long range
shooting with which the force has just
been equipped for such emergencies.
Coakley cooperated by sending loco
motive to the edge of the meadows near
est Kearny. The rifle armed policemen
clambered aboard and for an hour the
locomotive was used as a hunter of the
fleeing bandits. The engine speeded up
and down the meadows, stopping here
and there while the riflemen investigated
suspicious shadows, but no trace of the
holdup men was found.
May related that they had left the vi
cinity of the tower but ten minutes be-
fore the locomotive load of thief chasers
arrived. The rescuers took him to his
home. 636 Hudson street. Hobofen. to
rest.
Following a report that lights had
been seen near Newark in u sealed mail
car of the Pennsylvania's "owr' express
from New York to Philadelphia, squad
Of railroad detectives and Trenton police
surrounded the train as it reached Tren-
ton and made a thorough but fruitless
search for bandits. This is the same
train which was robbed of mail several
days ago. Railroad officials believed
then that the light effect had been
caused by a short circuit. Although it
was ascertained nothing was stolen. an
armed guard was put in the car to con-
tinue the trip to Philadelphia.
Arthur Dolly. "a, 107 Railroad avenue,
Jersey City, was arrested last night in
