Colfax connty is ahead this time
suro. The last Schuyler Sun takeB
pains to illustrate the fact, which is
told thus :
"Peter Shade brought to town
Monday the information that triplets
had been born in Lincoln precinct, to
the family of John. Aldherd, a Ger
man who landed in this country last
year. This happened on the 12th
inst., and all are doing well. It was
a surprise to tho folks, and being un
expected tho majority of the little
fellows were unprovided for, and the
family being poor the neighbors had
to contribute to the necessities of the
occasion. The boy weighed 6 ponnds,
the girls 4J and 4 respectively.
Hurrah for Colfax county I"
A little incident just at the close
of tho last long term of the District
Court is rather too good to keep. It
was one of those laughable' things
that are apt to take place when the
mental tension has relaxed, and which
are calculated to shako tho cobwebs
from "the minds of listeners. The
csbcs of Messrs. Cowdery & Fuller,
applicants for admission to the bar,
had been disposed of and B. R. had
taken the attorney's "oath of office,"
so to speak, when it came Mr. Ful
ler's turn to stand up. In very dig
nified tones, Judge PoBt began to ad
minister tbo oath in the following
language : "You do solemnly swear
that you will support the constitu
tion of the United States of America,
the constitution of the State of Ne
braska, and that you renounce all
allegiance" just at this point the
room full of lawyers couldn't hold in
any longer, and the Judge, seeing that
he had cot side-tracked into the
naturalization realms of the court,
joined very heartily in the laugh,
which continued quite too long for
the equanimity of the incipient law
yer, who blushed like a young maiden
at her first ball. The Judge finally
gathered himself together, apologized
to Mr. Fuller, saying that he had not
intended to call his loyalty into ques
tion, and administered the oath in due
form, and with as much solemnity as
the circumstances would allow. The
incident called to mind a scene in
Judge Wakely's court, a short time
after ho went upon the bench. It is
well known, of course, that the Judge
is a Democrat. Ho was examining a
witness in a naturalization case, had
asked him if ho knew tho applicant,
and was continuing his investigations,
desiring to know of the witness,
whether the applicant was a loyal
man. "Oh, yes, Judge," said the wit
ness, "ho is a good Republican."
"Well," remarked the Judge, in his
slow, deliberate way, "I presume that
if he is all right otherwise, that fact
ought not prevent his becoming a
citizen of the United States."

On Monday May 10th, Wm. Harris
will be hero with bis world famous
Nickle Plate Circus and there is
probably no man living to-day who
has had better success, made more
friends, or won more laurels in the
show business than W. H. Harris,
who is a thorough gentleman and a
showman worthy of the name. He
has encircled tho world with his en
terprise and always to phenomenal
business, from the fact that he has the
best talent in the country and in
troduces nothing bnt new and novel
features, among the few of the many
sensations engaged for the present
season is the "Camel Girl" who is
pronounced by scientists the most
wonderful freak of natnre ever seen
since the creation of the world. A
beautiful young lady with the classic
features of a Madonna, but the body
of a camel. Tis said by those who
have seen her that there is nothing
like her to-day on earth, and that her
counterpart never did exist. This
most wonderful freak is on exhib
ition in the main canvas at no separate
price of admission, together with the
only den of performing lions and
tigers in the known world. The big
Umbrella Eared Elephant, "Gypsy"
and the best ring performance ever
seen by mortal man.

"I have had many narrow escapes
from death, in my time," said the
funny man, as he took a fresh chew
of tobacco. "Tell us about it," chim
ed in a chorons of voices. "Well,"
he began, "one time I went out hunt
ing, I had a new gun. When she
went off, if I had been four feet away
I would have been killed." "How
was that ?" asked the crowd. "Why

have been at the muzzle." The
crowd did not wait for any more.
