Chloroformed Bird, Minus Feathers,
Very Much Alive When the An.
esthetic Had Worn Off.
One of New ..Jersey's most con
servative towns Is consumed with
mirth, and the objects of said mirth
are a young, kind-hearted bride and
bridegroom. The bridegroom, it ap-
pears, took a, chance on a turkey that
was being raffled off in his New York
office and a few days later was notified
that he had won the pompous bird.
Highly delighted, he gave his address
and ordered the prize sent out to his
New Jersey home.
In the course of time the bird ar
rived at its destination, and arrived,
much to the surprise of the bride and
bridegroom, In a wire crate very much
alive, remarks the New York Sun. As
their experience in executing birds was
nil and the bride "couldn't bear to
have Its pretty head chopped off,"
they .decided to chloroform it. Con
sequently, the next night, when the
bridegroom got home from the office,
the anesthetic waet administered on a
lovely lace handkerchief and then the
bird was plucked and put Into the
Ice box. About 9 o'clock that night
the peace and quiet around the library
lamp were disturbed by strange noises
In the kitchen.
Hand in hand the newlyweds bravely
descended upon the kitchen expecting
to find the ever-looked-for burglar,
But no burglar was to be seen. Lo
cating the noise in the direction of the
Ice box the brave young bridegroom
swung open the doors and out stepped
a very naked turkey. After a few
rounds of the kitchen with consider
able flapping of wings he began pick
ing up the crumbs on the floor. The
bride and bridegroom looked at each
other In horror and fled from the
kitchen. An hour or so later the
services of a neighbor were called
upon end this time the turkey was an
esthetized with an ax.
