INDEPENDENCE.

The Poultry show of the Jackson County Poultry association will
close tonight at 10 o'clock. The attendance yesterday was good
and all those present were interested in the handsome fowls.
Judge Theodore HEWES of Trenton, Mo., was busy all day
yesterday and the day before scoring the birds. Mr. HEWES is
an expert and is a very rapid worker, but he could not finish
yesterday. The 800 cooped inmates of Music hall kept each
other awake at all hours, and one passing at midnight will hear
the crowing of some ambitious cock, the cackling of the hens
or the raucous cry of the beautiful pea-fowl. The following prizes
were awarded yesterday.

Barred Plymouth Rocks - J. A. BRACKENBURY, first on all in the class

White Plymouth Rocks - L. W. BALDWIN, first on all in the class

Golden Wyandottes - E. D. TAYLOR, first on cock, hen, cockerel, pullet and pen

White Wyandottes - T. G. JENKINS, first on all in the class

Black Wyandottes - COOPS & Co., first on all in the class

Light Brahmas - F. B. GLOVER, first on cock; T. F. WEAVER, first on cockerel and hen

Buff Cochins - William BOSTAIN, first on all in the class
