Tlio tender white meat of young
pellets , as well na the tougher nuts
cles of ngcd .American barnyard
chanticleers , have years ago ingrafted
n taste upon Mongolian pnllates
which is sought to bo gratified oven in
death ; for the poorest Chinaman is
Tioveried without being accompanied
on his trip across the Slyx by the
sinewy framework of what might have
been a fowl , if it had been fefl.
THE IIEATHKN CIIII'KEtf THIEF.
This peculiar love for poultry has
educated John to bo tlio most expert
chicken thief of the ago. Ho may
with perfect safety ami largo odds bo
pitted ni'ainst any chicken thief that
ver jumped a barnyard fence in the
sunny south. Long practice has
taught the Chinese chicken thief a
.grip wliich allows the most loudly
mouthed hen but ono short and sti
fled cluck before boiir < consigned to
the sack , where the partners of her
joys and sorrows has preceded her ,
never again to welcome tlio
rising disc of the morning with his
defiant crow. Chicken stealing is n
profession with the Mongolians , There
is scarcely a citizen finding delight in
growing his own Eaitor eggs whoso
hen roost has not suffered irom the
depredations of those people. Wash
ington alloy furnishes a ready market
for nil the roosters , liens and chickens
which may bo brought thero. They
nro sold for food only , nnd woo to any
finely bred or fancy fowl which finds
its way into this market , for though
to breeders it may bo worth dollars ,
to the Chinamen it is of value only in
proportion to corpulency. Economy
of space is thu first rule in the chicken
trade as in nil other domestic or com
mercial arrangements of the Chinese.
The chicken coops nro piled ia halls ,
balconies , cellars , .under tlio sidewalk ,
in fact , in every place except whore
their exposed condition might tempt
the ubiquitous thief to steal for a
second time the booty of n suburban
hen-robbing excursion.
The Chinese chicken market pres
ents a busy scene nt times. Early in
the morning the country dealers nr-
rive , the customary two baskets slung
over the polo. There is nothing to in
dicate that these baskets contain chick
ens , as their tops nro always covered.
A good many of the vegetable ped
dlers have the confirmed habit of nab
bing a lonely chicken whenever they
can , which is quietly hidden under the
sprouts and cabbage. Tlio trader of
course knows his men , mid makes his
own prices Ono after another these
follows sneak in nnd drag one or two
lions from under the covering , after
which the burden is shouldered again ,
nnd with ono hand tightly clasping the
money , they amble at a jog trot out
of the alloy at the opposite end.
When an American visitor enters
these prccinctx , not knowing what
particular trade is carried on in its
.dark recesses , ho is npfc to bo much
startled on henrinj ; thtf lusty crow oi
Bomo cock ponotrnto' through the
Egyptian darkness of the 'Chinese
Topkories ; n crow , too , which never
fails to awaken n lively remembrance
of green fields and the blessed sun
which sheds its daylight everywhere
except upon Chinatown. Tender
hearted souls it may ( ill with sad pity
for the p9or rooster , who is cooped up
in a dark recess to line the fat stomach
of some rich Mongol in the near fu
ture. And oven the most dofiint
"kickorikco" appears to fall tinged
with despair upon the human ear.
ruNr.iur , MKATS.
People with anti-Cliinoso proclivi
ties nro apt to conclude that oliickona
nro not made to bo oaten by China
men. Chickens , fowls and roosters
of nil breeds nnd of all conditions
may bo found on Washington alloy ,
The old hens are kept solely for fu
neral sacrifices , the heathen's practi
cal materialism outweighing oven his
reverence nnd sorrow for departed
kinship. The purchase of such
chicken is nevertheless carried oul
with the same calculating shrewdness
regarding quantity nnd quality as ii
the animal was to be eaten with the
chopsticks , nnd if the dead is hon
ored by but little chicken meat , ho is
certainly honored by n vast nmounl
of commercial shrewdness , which has
"boon expanded in its purchase. The
Chinaman appears to value this seri
of sagacity tlio moro as it saves monov
for him , and by BOIJIO kind of intri
cate reasoning ho thinks tlio donil nlgo
should fool gratified nttho intellectual
triumph rather than at n post-mortom
.gastronomic treat. The days immodi
ntoly preceding the Chinese now year
of course are the busiest for the Chi
nese chicken dealer and thief alike ,
ior chicken meat on this occasion it
what mince pies nro for the Now Englanders -
landers on thanksgiving. On thosi
days the Mongol oven sinks some ol
the habitual gravity which accompa
nies him always in mercantile trans
actions. The chicken in the coops
nro never at rest then. Ono after an
other they are matched out , woighoi1
and handled , and cither put back or
consigned with tied f opt to tho.capa
cious alcoves of the buyer's tunic.
FEEDINO THE FOWLS.
Individual preferences here i else
where hold full sway , and the oh
rooster rejected b } ' ono is sure to be
taken nnd found answering by tin
next comer. The food of the chiokci
while under John's tender care is nat
urolly confined to the minimum , excepting
copting , perhaps , BOIIIO particular ! ;
fine birds which nro fattened for th
rich Mongols of Commercial and Uac
ramonto streets. The Chinese principle
plo of economy evidently teacho
that anything that oats and is itsel
to bo oaten , had better bo eatei
quickly to save any unnecessary
double conversion of alimentary mole
cules. The trade , of course , 'is no
confined to chickens only. Geese
ducks , turtles and many other livinj
and crawling things hero find a road
market. In BOIIIO of the dark an
dingy rocosscs of Chinatown poculia
avocations ore carried on , ono of whic
ia that of raising chickens , not for th
Chinese market only , but that of th
white man as well. The industry o
the thiffonitr is entirely in thp htnd
of tlia. Ohiiiamau in'San Francisco
and they are even moro thor
ou li in picking up everything
vlrich inny Imvo nny imaginable
value than tlicir celebrated Parisian
confreres. The ronnmnls of food
vliich nro gathered up by Ihrso scav
engers and which nro too far gone to
) o used as human food furnish the
ncans of raising hundreds of chick
ens. Underground where no ray of
ho sun over penetrates , in passages
vhcrooveii Ohinameii will not stretch
ho mats which form their beds , these
chickens are ranched in coops. They
are the sickliest examples of poultry
hat can bo imagined. The roosters
lover crow , the liens don't cluck , they
can hardly aland , and the total dark
ness winch always surrounds them has
nhnost made them blind. These
hickons fatten , nevertheless , in remarkably -
markably quick time , as the food is
usually rich and abundant. They find
a ready market in Chinatown , as well
is in our regular markets. Whenever
heso the regular sources of the Chi
nese chicken supply , arc inadequate to
fill the demand , the chicken vender is
ompelled to have resource to the reg-
ilar avenues of the poultry trade. The
rjuantity obtained in this manner is
cry small , however , as the prices ) are
usually so high that they leave but a
mall margin of profit.
California Crojin.
an Fraiulnco Chronicle , July D.
The reports from various districts of
lie state are of a more favorable char-
ctnr than the anticipations of a few
ecka ago , although bad enough in
omparison with those of last year ,
lie favorable turn in conditions ngri-
ultural during the two or three weeks
ireccoding tbo harvest time put n
inch improved face on affairs. The
reatcst shrinkage is in the San Jov
uin valley where , along the vast
vho.it tract known as the West Side ,
lear from the upper part of
llamcda county to the Mussel Slough
ountry in Tulitro , the crop falls
IF from 40 to f > 0 per cent from that
f last year. In the Sacramento vnl-
oy also , especially in the great wheat
ountics of Buttu and Coltisa , the crop
s only about half that of last year ,
further north the reports are better ,
omo of the counties showing better
Imn usual oven in good yours. Santa
jln.rn , Napn and Sonoma , which are
very year becoming moro and more
rchard and vineyard sections and loss
lovoted to cereals , make a very light
hewing in grain , but moro thancom-
toiisate for it in other products. The
eports from the extreme southern
ountit's are of iv moro encouraging
omplexion , although their crop of
vhc.it and honey is light. Aside
rom tlio northern counties , San
Jciiito and Monterey give the best ac-
, ount of thoinsolves in the way of
vhcat. Contra Costa , Solano and
itanislaus Imvo yielded very poorly.
Merced keeps up her yield by reason
of increased acreage. It is worthy of
remark that the reports from all sec-
, ions agree that the wheat produced
; his year is a marked improvement in
pjality over that of preceding years ,
Jio fullness and plumpness of the
furry largely oH'sctting the compara-
, ivo falling oft' in quantity of the
field. On the whole , the reports are
encouraging , showing that the harvest
will considerably exceed the unticipa-
jens of u few weeks ago.
GOV. HUBBARD'S DAUGHTER ,
How the Girl Who Elopoil With n
Coachman if ) Getting
Along.
lartforil filler. ,
The romntio story of the elopement
of Miss Nellie Hubbard , daughter of
ox-UoV. Ilubbard , with the family
coachman , Frank Shepard , which
wont the rounds of the press two years
aijo , should bo supplemented now by
, ho true story of the lifo of the young
narried couple , in order that they may
mvo the benefit , rather than that it
iliould go abroad that Shonard him
self was , indeed , so shiftless a fellow
that ho could not provide for the sup
port of a wife.
Soon after the marriage Shepard
and his wife went to board with his
: > rothor in this city , and Nellie occa
sionally went to her father's to see her
mother and sisters'but ; it was under
stood that under no consideration
would her husband over bo allowed to
darken the doors of the Ilubbard man
sion. Meantime Shepard obtained
employment as a Dalesman in n retail
foot and shoo house , and there ho re
mained for about three months , and
then both himself and wife disappear
ed and nil sorts of rumors became
current as to their whereabouts. Ono
was that Nellie Imd left him and was
tomg to Europe with her father m
aistors , and that she had left her hus
band for good. None of those stories
rose above the dignity of pure inven
tion. ,
Shepard has au undo living in Mid
dlotown , this state , named John Wil
liniuH , who has for many years been
connected with a nourishing maim
Facturing concern and has made
! argo amount of money , which ho has
carefully salted nway. Ho is worth
certainly n clean § 100.000. Moreover ,
lie married a rich maiden lady n fo\\ \
years ago , who has enough to take
; are of herself for many long years if
death should remoyo her husband and
all his cash. Williams became inter
ested in Shepard after the elopement
to a much greater extent than over ,
being a-good dual put out by the Bto <
ries that Fred was not good onouuli
for the young lady , and to ehow thai
his sympathy was practical ho made i
tender of financial support. Shopart
then set about to finding business ti
suit him , and found that ho couh
form a copartnership with a well cs
tablishod livery establishment in Now
Haven , and at once the ready unch
at Middle town made the necessary do
poail and the ' business relation WHS
formed and still goes along prosper ISo ISr
ously. It was this move which leu to
Shopard's ' sudden departure froii
Hartford after ho retired from the
shoo busiuess.
Not only is the former coachman do .
ingyell in his business , but ho is con
ducting himself like a man in otho
ways , and his wife is reported to b °
happy. She is soon frequently driv
ing in her phaeton through the shad
dy city of alms , and it is understooi
is kindly received by very many of he
old friends llavon
in Now , nmon I
whom are BOIIIO of the first youn
ladies in the place. Once in u whilt 1
oho conies to Hartford and is noticoi
as being in perfect health and Uokiu
jirettior than over , She keeps up
thoroughly stylish appearance , and hu
money enough from her huabuid t
arrant it , all of which proves that she
< j not "living in poverty , " as thou-
ands of people ill over the country ,
vho have become interested in her
rclfaro , will bo happy to learn.
Kx-Gov. Ilubbard intend * going to
Jurope with his family this summer ,
ut Nellie will enjoy herself at the
atering places along the shore close
o Now Haven , and possibly by-ami-
y will accompany her husband when
o gets rich enough to foreign lands.
Vhon Uncle John dies and leaves
hopard a fortune , the coachman ma } '
ko to travel as well as his his father-
i-law.

AN ELK HUNXTN OREGON
'ho ' Exploit of Two Boyn Who
Brought Down Tholr Gnmo.
rom'tho Allmiy ( Oregon ) Democrat.
Ono day last week T. P. MoKiiight ,
ropriotor of the pleasure rcsoit at
xjwor Soda Springs , started out with
is son Charley to hunt for elk across
le Santiam from the springs. After
oing a few miles they discovered an
Ik , and Charley succeeded in killing
They skinned it , and taking part
[ the meat on their backs and cover-
ng the remainder up , came homo.
fter coming homo they thought some
ild animal might carry away the
icat they left behind before they
otihl return to it next day , s < > Charley
nd his little brother Clydo , taking
leir blankets , guns and dog , .started
ack , expecting to camp witli it. Soon
Ftor arriving at their 'destination
toy discovered a conplo of elk , and
y ( dipping on them managed to kill
oth. A few moments after their dog
ommcnccd n. terrific racket n short
istanco elf , and above the noise of its
arking could bo heard the peculiar
ounda made by the calf of the elk ,
'ho boya rushed to the spot as soon
possible and found a young elk
alf , probably about two weeks old.
Of course they feathered on that
alf. no boy would lose such an op-
ortunity to capture such n rare ani-
nal. But they ore not to got it
ithout n stugglc. Hearing n noise
lose by , they glanced up and were
Imcst petrified by seeing the old cow
oming to the rescue of her younp.
"ho was only about twenty or thirty
.iot away and coming like n whirl-
ind. With her head down and Jier
air turned the wrong way , she was a
ight to try the nerves of one of
10 old time hunters. No time was
o bo lost ; a second's delay might ro-
.tit in the death of both
oys. ] Jut Charley was equal to
occasion ; grasping his gun ho
row sight on the terrible animal , and
liooting when who vas actually only
bout ten feet off , c.i'uscd her to turn
linost a summersault , and lay at their
cot dead. Them was an exploit
qual to the many that our readers
nvo hoard told around their firesides
f some of the old hunters of the
reat west , for bo it remembered that
Jharloy is 15 years old , and small of
is nge , and Clydo is only 13. The
oys dressed their game , camped out
11 night , and the next day they took
lieir captive elk and went homo and
old their story. Their father has
eon packing meat out on horseback
vor since , and judges that they will
aye about 1,000 pounds , the elk
voighing from 300 to COO each. They

o not wish to sot our teeth into ! iny-
hing moro luscious.
