TESTIMONIAL TO MAJ. CAFFREY.
Within the past few days the friends
of Maj. Wm. Caffrey, here, learning
that he would, soori leave J3rmvuvilie
and this field, where he has labored
.assiduously oc a journalist for the last
three years, resolved amoi.gst them
selves to make him a respectable and
suitable present, as a toke: of their
esteem and friendship. To this end
a subscription paper was handed ar
ound, of which .the following is the
heading:
We, the undersigned, in order to
testify our high regard, and apprecia
tion of Maj. Caffrey, for the able man
lier iu which tie conducted, editorial
ly, the NehrAska Advertiser, and
also our appreciation of tiie Major as
a citizen and a gentleman, agree to
pay the amount Set opposite our names
for the purpose of presenting to hitu
some suitable token of our esteem.
This was nUuierou.dy signed, and
an amount, sufficient to carry into ef
fect the design of the donors, was
raised at once. After consultation it
was agreed that the Major was partic
ularly partial to a walking-stick, and
it was determined, therefore "to pre
sent him with a gold-mounted cane.
Theodore Hill. Eq.. was Uliarged
with the duty of procuring the sub
stantial bauble; and finding that a
t suitable one StiUld not Us" had here, lie
has sent to Chicago an order for one
hat even Bismarck would not bH
ashamed to wear. When it arrives,
the ceremonies of presentation will
take place.
The Major, learning of these pro
ceedings, feels a -natural uhd.-laudahle
pride in contemplation of the Tact
that he has many appreciative friends
here, and that he will carry away with
him a memento to remind 'him of
them as he passes on through the vi
cissitudes the sunshines and shad
ows of life.

Thrilling Atlventnres of a Lawyer.
a lawyer- xmm the south side of.
town relates the following experi
ence dining the last week: I was
coming down from dinuer. Had an
appeased appetite, an easy conscience
and was happy. Met a little boy with
a hand sled. "Have a slide?" said he.
I looked far up on the hilltop, and I
saw a speck. Like a flash of lightning
it shot past me into the ravine beldw.
Then another, and nuother. "Fun."
said I, and I felt the "electric thrill"
through every nerve. 1 was determ
ined to go. I retraced rrly steps .and
smiled audibly as I crintemplated the
sport. T sat down oh the trembling
piece of mechanism and pushed off.
I began to doubt. Was I not precip
itous ? Then I began to hold on to
my sled. T felt a sinking sensation.
I was willing then to get off if t could
do so. gracefully. I began to look for
a convenient place to stop, but my
sled didn't seem to have any such
peaceubly disposed purpose in view.
T began to doubt in! loyalty or sanity.
It became evident that I was to be
victimized or. it Was rushing on to
self destruction. I codld not decide
with any certainty which was true,
and then decided it was a distinction
without a difference. I grasped the
mad thing tighter, as if to choke it
off. It ran the faster. I had quit
breathing some time "before. I tried
to philosophize on my situation, but I
was nut running thought. I became
sensible thatT was approaching a cli
max, hut ever3'thing else was vague.
I had a half-scared hope that there
was a snow drift beyond it. Rut I
was growing sensibly less fastidious
as to the convenient; of a stopping
place. I felt humble and submissive.
There wan a sudden collapse.
I had changed my base and was sit
ting on the back side of my head, and
performing gymnastic with my feet.
I had half a sled runner In illy right
band, a strand of rope in my left, and
a stack of cord wood all over me. I
spoke some vigorous words, but did
not rely upon an act of faith to get
out of there. I took an inviiltriry.
The sled was dissipated. A sectiqn of
my trow8ers-Was performing the .sig
nificant function of a flag on the
pointed end of a stick of cordwiiml.
I hastily concluded that I bad been
"flagged" for the purpose of wood
ing up." I inquired after the safety
df my individual members next. My
elbow called torn nh.ee l of court plas
ter, and the penalty of "Hhylnck's
bond" had been exacted from an orn
amental if not a useful portion of 013'
left leg. That bo3 never intimated
payment for that sled. I am growing
more collected now. but I have been
sittihg sldewa3Ts on a chair for three
daj's waiting for that 1103- to put in
his appearance.
