No Creddit Fur Law.

A few days after his installation into
office a young couple appeared before
him to be married. Jimmy was in a
quandary. He had never see the mar
riage ceremony performed. and. telling
the candidates to be seated, he jumped
on a horse and galloped to q ranch a
half mile distant to consult the only
law book in the county. a small work
entitled Every Man his Own Law
yer" He searched its pages closely,
but could find nothing bearing upon
the subject, and in despair he galloped
back to Clancy's saloon and consulted
the boys. One of them, a recent ar'
rival from the states, explained to the
old man how he should conduct the
ceremony. He listened attentively,
and when the tenderfoot had conclud.
ed his explanation said:
"Say, young TELLER. you gist hop

"But that wouldn't be legal, Uncle

IN THE FAR WEST
Jimmy Crane Gets to Be Judge and
Marries a Couple.
A RumOr That He Wore Socks Con-
sidered a Contempt OF Court.
Difficulties of Introducing a Foreign
Corpse as testimony.

Back in the early days, when the
ship of civilization was endeavoring to
push its prov up the valley of the
Platte and brawny workmen were
spiking down the rails of the Union
Pacific railroads-says Capt. Jack
Crawford, the poet-scout, in the New
York World-the proceedings in some
of the courts of justice were peculiar.
The country was wild and hostile. In
dians chased the buffalo over tho
ground where prosperous towns and
villages now stand. Lawyers were
about as scarce as they are in the
promised land, and justice, now being
provided with the traditional scales,
performed some remarkable guess
work. At that time | was in the In
dian service and for a time vas
stationed at Lone Tree, in tho beauti-
full valley of the Platte. The town con-
sisted Of Il half dozen hastily con-
structed houses, the majority built of
sods. There were a few settlers near
the town-hardy pioneers who had
taken up government land and who
lived in constant danger OF attack from
satan's earthly corps, the Sioux.
One of tho eccentric characters of
the town was jimmy Crane, a time
beaten frontiersman. uneducated, un.
polished and, as a travelling mission
airy once said, ungodly. His life had
been spent west Of the auburn waters
of the Missouri, and he knew as little
of the ways of civilization as an Apache
Indian knows of the modern plan Of
salvation. He was a dead shot with a
rifle, an ardent lover of whisky and An
expert at draw poker, but aside from
these he had no religious accomplish
ments worth speaking of
Bill Bennett, the justice of the peace
in and for that precinct, had a misun-
Outstanding one night with Jerry Man
son over the very important point of
who played low in a game of seven-up,
and after the funeral it became neces-
sary to elect a man to succeed him.
With that spiriso of recklessness which
characterizes the frontiersman, and as
a rich joke, the boys nominated Jim
my, and, to carry out the Joke, elected
him. The high honor so unexpectedly
thrust upon the cid man broke him all
up, but he at one rose to the dignity
of the position and began to comb his
hair daily. There were vague rumors
Sitting about the settlement that he
had taken to wearing socks. These
slanderous rGmors, however, ne indig-
nantly denied, and even went so far as
to make threats offheavy fines for con
tempt CT coart if they wers persisted
His knowledge. of law and the du-
Of his position was limited; in fact,
he didn't know the difference between
a writ of replevin and an act Of Con-
gress, and couldn't distinguish . peace
warrant from the ten commandments
but he assumed the responsibility
~foarlessly, and smiled benignly when
the boys addressed him as Judge"
He determined to do = cash business
from the start, and with the aid Of a
marking brush and a pine board the
| space above his cabin door soon bore
the inscription:

John Chysler was in the city yesterday
arranging for the appearance of the
Fielding comedy ideals at Harper's thea>
tire next week, commencing Tuesday
evening. The Dubuque Herald says:
A crowded house greeted the renowned
Fieldings last evening at the Standard.
The night was one of humor and laugh
ter. The entire company is superb
one, and the stars, Mr. Fielding and
Miss Maggie Fielding, are supported by
powerful company, The singing of
Miss Fielding was artistically rendered.
Mr. John Fielding as * G. Hopper
the lightning agent, was very happy,
and Miss Maggie Fielding as Janet Vau-
CHAN" was exceedingly clever.
At Harper's theatre Monday evening
will appear the Dora Wiley comic opera
company. The funniest show in the
world" says the St. Louis Post Dispatch.
Folks Mixed Pickles, the ludicrous
comedy that has made many side split
and caused many theatre owner to nail
the shingles on his roof down tighter and
| which Manager Kuell will be obliged to
do next Sunday morning, appears
at Harper's theatre Saturday evening
Slys the New York Dramatic Neoos:
Mixed Pickles, three act farce from
| the pen of DR.. t. Fl. Sayre, was produced
| at the Fourteenth Street theatre last night
for the first time in New York. Its in :
terest depends upon cleverly arranged in
cidenis rather than upon any welldefined
plot But these incidents are in them
selves funny, and they follow each other
so quickly and afford such brisk action
that the fun doesn't have a chance to lag.
The lines are bright and the character
lzalion is amusing. although it tends to
burlesque. Last night the play was I'M
usually well acted throughout. Mr., j.
B. Polk, as mischievous practical joker,
who impersonates his clergyman brother
aud thereby sets many worthy people at
SKIES and sevens, was very happy aud
did not lose point. Mr. Alexander
| Vincent. the nor ored head of family
but inclined to be fast made distinct
hit and shared the honors with Mr.. Polk.
Mrs Geo Devere, Miss Julia Polk, Miss
Jennie Christie. Miss Nellie Sheldon, and
Messrs Rainford and Cooke acquitted
themselves most creditably. The aud
fence was large and laughed necessarily
througOut the performance.

The climate of Southern Nebraska and

The following week Mr.. Niece will speak

himself to be the friend of labor by his

duty his reelection is assured.
