A Dancing Rooster.

Not very far behind the story of the hen that hatched alligators is this story of a dancing rooster, told by the Alabamian, of Wetumpka, Ala.: “We learn from Dr. T. B. Whitby that Mr. Samuel Spigener, living hear Buyckville, entertained him recently with a dancing rooster. Mr. Spigener called up his crower and offered him some dough provided he will cut a ‘ double shuffle,’ which the fowl proceeds to do, to the merriment of the crowd. We have seen a dog churn butter, but we take off our hat to the Buyckville chicken that dances.”
