% H i ¥ \ i CELESTIAL FOWLS, Chinese Chicken Markets and How They are Supplied. ‘The Heathen Seller and Purchaser of Fowla=ecMystories of Under= ground Chiocken Markets San Francisco Chronicle The tender white meat of young pellets, as well as the tougher mus cles of aged American chanticleers, have years ago ingrafted a taste upon Mongolian pallates which is sought to be gratified even in death ; for the poorest Chinaman is neveried without being accompanied on his trip across the Styx by the sinewy framework ot what might have been a fowl, if it had been fed. THE HEATHEN CHICKEN THIEF. This peculiar love for poultry has educated John to be the most_expert chicken thief of the age. He may with perfect safety and large odds be pittad against any chicken thief that ever jumped a barnyard fence in the sunny south. Long practice has taught the Chinese chicken thicf a grip which allows the most loudly- mouthed hen but one short and sti- fled cluck before beinz consigned to the sack, where the partners of her joys and sorrows has preceded her, never again to welcome the rising disc of the morning with his defiant crow. Chicken stealing is a profession with the Mongolians, There 18 scarcely a citi finding delight in growing his own Easter eggs whose hen roost has not suffered trom the depredations of these people. Wash- ington alley furnishes a ready market for all the roosters, hensand chickens which may be brought there. They are sold for food only, and woeto any finely bred or fancy fowl which finds its way into this market, for though to breeders it may be worth dollars, to the Chinamen it is of value only in proportion to corpulency. Economy of space is the first rule inthe chicken trade as in all other domestic or com- mercial arrangements of the Chinese. The chicken coops are piled ia halls, balconies, cellars, under the sidewalk, in fact, in every place except where their exposed condition might tempt the ubiquitous thief to steal for a second time the booty of a suburban hen-robbing excursion, THE MONGOLIAN MARKET. The Chinese chicken market ents a busy scene at times, the morning the country ¢ rive, the customary two baskets slung over the pole. There is nothing to in- dicato that these baskets contain chick- ens, as their tops are 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 cu{)lm;;u. The trader of course knows his men, and makes his own prices One aftor another theso fellows sneak in and drag one or two hens from under the covering, after which the burden is shouldered again, and with one hand tightly clasping the money, they amble at a jog trot out of the alley at the opposite end. When an American visitor enters these precinets, mnot knowing what particular trade is carried on in its dark recesses, he is apt to he much startled on hearing tha lusty crow of some cock penctrate through the Egyptian darkness of the Chinese Tookeries; a crow, too, which never fails to awaken a lively remembrance of green ficlds and the blessed sun which sheds its daylight everywhere except upon Chinatown, Tender- hearted souls it may fill with sad pity for the psor rooster, who is cooped up in a dark recess to line the fat stomach of some rich Mongol in the near fu- ture. And even the most defiant *kickerikeo” appears to fall tinged with despair upon the human ear, FUNERAL MEATS, People with anti-Chinese procli ties are apt to conclude that chickens are not made to be eaten by China- men, Chickens, fowls and “roosters of all breeds and of all conditions may bo found on Washington alley, The old hens are kept solely for fu- neral sacrifices, tho heathen's practi- cal materialism outweighing even his reverence and sorrow for departed kinship. The purchase of such a chicken is neyertheless carried out with the same calculating shrowdness regarding quantity and quality as if the animal was to be eaten with the chopsticks, and if the dead is hon- ored by but little chicken meat, he is certainly honored by a vast amount of commercial shrewdness, which has been expended in its purchase, The Chinaman appears to value this sort of sagacity the more as it saves money for him, and by some kind of intri- cate reasoning he thinks the dead also should feel irutified at the intellectual triumph rather than at a post-mortem gostronomic treat. The days immedi- ately preceding the Chinese new year of course are the busiest for the Chi- nese chicken dealer and thief alike, tor chicken meat on this occasion is what mince pies are for the New Eng- landers on thanksgiving, On theso days the Mongol even sinks some of the habitual gravity which accompa- nies him always in mercantile trans- actions. The chicken in the coops are never at rest then, One after an- other they are matched out, weighed and handled, and either put back or consigned with tied foet to the,capa- cious sleeves of the buyer's tunic. FEEDING THE FOWLS, Individual preferonces here as clse- where hold )ull sway, and the old rooster rejected by one is sure to be taken and found answering by the next comer, The food of the chicken while under John's tender care is nat- urally confined to the minimum, ex- copting, perhaps, some particularly fine birds which are fattened for the rich Mongols of Commercial and Sac- ramento streets. The Chinese princi- le of economy evidently teaches {lut anything that eats and is itseif to be eaten, had better be eaten uickly to save any unnccessary xuuble conversion of alimentary mole- cules, The trade, of course, is not confined to chickens only. Geese, ducks, turtles and many other living and crawling things here tind a ready market. In some of the dark and dingy recesses of Chinatown peculiar avoentions are carried on, one of which is that of raising chickens, not for the Chinese market only, but that of the white man as well. The industry of the chiffonier is entirely in the hands of the Chinaman in San Francisco, and they are even more thor- ers ar- harnyard | fi everything imaginable {ough in picking up | which may have any value than their celebrated Parisian | confrer The remnants of food which are gathered up by these scav | engers and which are too far gone to be used as human food furnish the means of raising hundreds of chick ens. Underground where no ray of the sun ever penetrates, in passages where even Chinamen will not stretch the mats which form their beds, these chickens are ranched in coops. They are the sickliest examples of poultry that can be imagined. The roosters never crow, the hens don't cluck, they can hardly stand,and the total dark- ness which always surrounds them has almost made them blind These chickens fatten, nevertheless, in re markably quick time, as the food is | usually rich and abundant. They find | a roady market in Chinatown, as well as in our regular markets, Whenever these the regular sources of the Chi nese chicken snpply, are inadequate to fill the demand, the chicken vender is compelled to have resource to the reg- ular avenues of the poultry trade. The quantity obtained in this manner is very small, however, as the prices are usually 8o high that they leave but a | small margin of profit. California Crops. San Francisco Chronicle, July 9. The reports from various districts of the state are of a more favorable char- actor than the anticipations of a fow weeks ago, although bad enough in comparison with those of last. year, The favorable turn in conditions agri- cultural during the two or three weeks preceeding the harvest time pnt a much improved face on affairs, The greatest shrinkage is in the San Joa- quin valley where, along the vast wheat tract known as the West Side, clear from-. the up, art of Alameda county to the };le\mu{ Slough country in Tulare, the crop falls off from 40 to 50 per cent from that of last year. 1In the Sacramento val- ley also, especially in the great wheat counties of Butte and Colusa, the crop is only about half that of last year. Further north the reports are better, some of the counties showing better than usual even in good years, Santa Clara, Napa and Sonoma, which are every year becoming more and more orchard and vineyard sections and less dovoted to cercals, make a very light showing in grain, but more than com- pensate for it in other products. The reports from the extreme southern counties are of a moro encouraging complexion, although their crop of wheat and honey is light. Aside from the northern counties, San Benito and Monterey give the best ac- count of thomsclves in the way of wheat. Contra Costa, Solano and Stanislaus have yielded very poorly. Merced keeps up her yield by reason of increased acreage. 1t is worthy of remark that the reports from all sec- tions agree that the wheat produced this year is a marked improvement in quality over that of preceding years, the fullness and plumpness of the berry largely offsetting the compara- tive falling off in quantity of the yield, On the whole, the reports are encouraging, showing that the harvest will considerably exceed the anticipa- tions of a few weeks ago. GOV. HUBBARD'S DAUGHTER, How the Girl Who Eloped Witha Coachman 1 Getting Along. Hartford Lotter. . The romatic story of the elopement of Miss Nellie Hubbard, daughter of ox-Gov. Hubbard, with the famly conchman, Frank Shepard, which went the rounds of the press two years ago, should bo nllr]r] emented now by the true story of the life of the young married couple, in order that they may have the benefit, rather than that it should go abroad that Shepard him- self was, indeed, so shiftless a fellow that he could not provide for the sup- port of a wife. Soon after the marriage Shepard and his wife went to board with his brother in this city, and Nellie oce sionally went to her father's to seo her mother and sisters; ‘but it was under- stood that under no consideration would her husband ever be allowed to darken the doors of the Hubbard man- sion, Meantime Shepard obtained employment as a salesman in a retail foot and shoe house, and there he re- mained for about three months, and then both himself and wife disappear- ed and all sorts of rumors became current as to their whereabouts. One was that Nellio had left. him and was gong to Europe with her father and sisters, and that she had left her hus- band for good. None of these stories roso above the dignity of pure inven- tion, Shopard has an uncle living in Mid- dletown, this state, named John Wil- liams, who has for many years been connected with a flourishing manu- facturing concern and has made a large amount of money, which he has carefully salted away. He is worth certainly a clean $100,000. Moreover, he married a rich maiden lady a fow years ago, who has enough'to take care of herself for many long years if death should remoye her husband and all his cash. Williams became intor- ested in Shepard after the elopement to a much greater extent than ever, being a'good deal put out by the sto- ries that Fred was not good enough for the young lady, and to show that his sympathy was practical ho made o tender of financial support. Shepard then set about to finding business to suit him, and found form a copartnership with a well os- tablished livery establishment in New Haven, and at once the ready uncle at Middletown made the necessary de- }nmil and the business relation was ormed and still goes along prosper- ously, 1t was this move which lu«\ to Shepard’s sudden doparture from Hartford after ho retired from the shoe business. Not only is the former coachman do- ing well in his business, but he is con- ducting himself like a man in other ways, aud his wife is reported to be happy. She is scen frequently driy- ing in her phaeton through the shad- dy city of elms, and it is understood is kindly received by very many of her old frends in New Haven, among whom are some of the first young ladies in the place. Once in a “while she comes to Hartford and is noticed a8 bewg in perfect health and leoking rrfltior than ever, She keeps up a horoughly stylsh appearance, and has money enough from her husband to | After coming home th that he could | %9 THE | es that she | as thou of which pr in poverty, warrant it, a is not “livir sands of people all over the country, who have interested in her s, will be happy to learn [ | © Ex-Gov, Hubbard intends going to Europe with his family this summer, [ but Nellie will enjoy herself at the watering places along th close [to New Haven, and possibly by-and by will accompany her husband when he gets rich cnough to foreign lands, When Uncle John dies and leaves | Shepard a fortune, the coachman may | like to travel as well as his his father in-law. AN ELK HUNT IN OREGON The Exploit of Two Boys Who Brought Down Their Game From the Albany (Oreg One day last week T. P, McKnight, | proprietor of the pleasure resort at Lower Soda Springs, started out with | his son Cha to hunt for clk across | the Santiam from the springs, After | going a few miles they discovered an | olk, and Charley succeeded in killing it. ' They skinned it, and taking part | of the meat on their backs and cover | ing the remainder up, came home. | y thought some | wild animal might carry away the meat they left behind beforo they could return to it next day,so Charley and his little brother Clyde, their blankots, guns and dog, statted back, expecting to camp with it, Soon after arriving at their destination they discovered a conple of elk, and by alipping on them managed to kill both. A few moments after their dog commenced a terrific racket a short distance off, and above the noise of its barking could be heard the peculiar sounds made by the calf of the elk. The hoys rushed to the spot as soon as possible and found a young elk calf, probably about two weeks old, Of course they feathered on that calf. no boy would lose such an op- portunity to capture such a rare ani- mal. But they were not to get it without a stuggle. Hearing a noise close by, they glanced up and were almest petrified by seeing the old cow coming to the rescue of her young. She was only about twenty or thirty foet away and coming like a whirl- wind. With ker head down and her hair turned the wrong way, she was a sight to try the nerves of one of the old time hunters. No time was to be lost; a second’s delay might re- sult in the death of Doth boys. But Charley was equal to the oceasion; grasping his gun he drow sight on the terrible animal, and shooting when she actually only about ten feet off, caused her to turn almost a summersault, and lay at their feet dead. There was an exploit equal to the many that our readers have heard told around their firesides of some of the old hunters of the great west, for be it remembered that Charley 1s 15 years old, and small of his age, and Clyde is only 13. The boys dressed their game, camped out all night, and the next day they took their captive elk and went home and told their story. Their father has been packing meat out on horseback rsince, and judges that they will about 1,500 pounds, the elk weighing from 300 to 500 each. They sent us down a few streaks, and wi do not wish to set our teeth into any thing more luscious, — Elevation of the Whole People. Indianapolis Journal (Rep.) The statement that President Gar- field has never done better service to the Nation than since he was stricken down is one that will meet an ‘“amen” in every heart. The Christian forti- tude, the perfect submission, the heroic desire to live if possible, but to dio bravely and resignedly if he must, the chivalric devotion to and careful thought for his wifeand childven and mother, have given the country an Inbition of high manhood and nobili- ty of character most salutary. The effect willnot bo ephemeral, General Garfield on his bed of death, as it promised to bo, has elevated the Amer- ican people.
