Willis Cory captured a nest of eight yonng wolves on his place a few week ago, brought them to town and sent their scalps to Plattsmouth claiming the bounty of three dol lars each. Judge Smith of this place wanted a little fun out of the transaction so he fixed up a letter purporting to have come from the county commissioners, stating; that the scalps had been examined and were found to be cat scalps, conse quently the claim was refused. This letter was shown to Mr. Cory and he was worked up to a high pitch of Jndig lation. After four days of such suspense he received a check of $24 dollars from the county clerk as bounty. The game was then up and Mr. Cory set up the cigars if the boys would say no more about it. Echo. No more Postal Cards accepted after July 3, 1892. Only one Postal Card received from one and the same person. JOE, the Popular Clothier, Ooera, ZE3Io-u.se Comer, Slattaaa-o-uLtla... as he would take care of him. The officers had a tussle but failed to get their man. Coffman started off in his buggy out Lincoln Avenue and in some Send all Postal Cards to way caught his toot in the front wheel of the buggy winding him around the axel of the buggy. Bur ns was either with him at the time or found him and instead ot trying to extract him from his perilous po sition went off and left him and also left the horse hitched to the buggy In the meantime some body went to C. W. Holmes' bouse got him out of bed and told him he had better go and get his horse and buggy, which he supposed was in the barn, out on Lincoln avenve. During all this time Coffman was lj-iug in the mud under the buggy suffering intense pain, having his ankle broken and his leg severly bruised. 11ns morning warrants were sworn out aganst Jake Coffman for being drunk and discharging fire arms an the street and also for Al Burris and Geo. Billings for refus ing to help arrest him when called upon by the officers. It is understood that Coffman will have a warrant sworn out against Burris as soon as he is able to be out. Coffman was taken tD the doctor's office and had his ankle dressed, when he was taken to the Cottage house where he is resting as easy as could be expected. Geo. Billings plead guilty to the charge and was fined S"" and costs and Burris was lodged in Jail. Every word must be written with pen and ink.
