INTERESTING INCIDENTS The poultry show was crowded today with a large attendance of the lovers of the domestic fowl. The main hall present- ed a scene of inviting neatness if not of serene tranquility when the doors opened. The floors were neat as wax, and every bird was in his of her proper place. The ceaseless cock-crowing still stirred the red, white and blue streamers that deco- rate the spacious arches of the hall, and there was a multitudinous cackle and Squawk still in progress. The judges in their priestly dusters strode wisely up and down the feathered aisles and jotted down their. awful conclusions. Many 4 disappointment streaked the. pale, gray air of the morning. Birds that had been fondly counted on to win firsts took ary old kind of awards, and some did not even do that. In thé barred Plymouth Rocks, light Brahmas and black Lang- shans there was keen strife. W. L. Deven- dorf of Nyack walked off with first on Plymouth Rock cocks, John Ridgely of H. Towson, Md., taking second, J. P. Wagga- man of Washington third, and Wells Sher- man of Vienna, Va., fourth. Chas. 5. Ford of Baltimore won firsteon light Brahma cocks, and John L. Cost of Hagerstown, Md., second. William H. Rhees of Wash- ington made a fine hit on black Langshans, sweeping in the blue ribbons on both cock and hen. As Mr. Rhees has been absent in Colorado for several months on account of il health, and had managed his birds by proxy, there was general rejoicing among his friends at his success.

Local breeders have come out well. In some classes birds that were first at the New York show were relegated to third place by the Washington judges. Among the homers is a beautiful bird, shown by Prof. Marion of the United States pigeon station at Annapolis, which wears a solid gold legband, tne ‘gift of the late George Washington Childs, and inscribed with the name of the giver. The bird has a sea record of 250 miles, having flown that distance from the Yorktown to Annapolis two years ago. To journey 250 miles. without a chance to alight and rest is a remarkable performance.
