Perched comfortably under a Pall
man car that was i<mining at tho rate
of GO miles an hoitrbix North Caro
lina chickenB rode more than MO
miles last week, sleeping as peace
fully as any bird over slopt, and that
too. without the fear of falling Into
the hands of foine dusky hunter of
fowl*, but at last the nwakoning
came When the excursion given by
the Masons and- the Retail Grocor'is,
Association left "Wrightsville, N. C,
a few days aj?o, in a special train, it
was found nccesHary to make fast
tiino and In consequence everything
was prepared for the run that wan to
bring the party back to Atlanta The
train lolt the beach just about the
time that all chickens not given to
dissipation go to roost. The cars
[that were used ou the trip wrnt from
' Atlanta, and while the excursionists
were enjoying themselves during the
time that they wero on the outing,
stood on a side track undisturbed.
Evidently while the cars were idle
these friendly chickens of the Tar
Heel state took up their residence
on the trucks. Whether they found
themsvlve^ moving before their
chickeji brains had time to realirrf the
situation and were afterwards lulled
to sleep, or whether they liked the
sensation and made the trip volunta
rily will never he known, but tbnc
they made it >0 a matter of record
The train stopped at an inspecting
point moro than 300 miles from
wbere it started, and it was - iheu
that the fowls were found'
Fred J. Lodd, who was one of the
committee of Masons in charge of
the trip, saw the chMcens when the
train stopped and called the atten
tion of others to them. "I wilf take
one of these and give it a good
home," he said, as he lifted a chick
en from its dangeroas bat apparent
ly comfortable roost.
