Justice Joyce had q case between
warning and iinticcrrious museum
managers the ot..cr morning. Sew
raj months ago John Smith, a Ger
man farmer forty-five years Of age
living near Fredonia. Kan. had 2
celf born ON his farm that was sorne-
thing Of a curiosity. 1t had two
heads. four eyes. four ears, two tails
and seven legs. This monstTosity
lived only few minutes. and was Of
40 great value as part Of herd.
But John Smith had another idea.

birth Of the phenomenon he saw Wis

SO he got a Fredonia man to soak his
calf in alcohol for three weeks and
then he started out to show the
American people the most wonderful
animal ever born in Kansas. He
toured the fairs and made right
smart he says, and finally got into
Kansas City and propped his dead
calf up in a Main street fake" show
There be met William Davis. who

but who was just then broke" and
made living standing at the door Of
the Main street show selling tickets
and calling out the attractions. Mr.
Davis could also do few tricks, and
the two men decided to take the calf
and the tricks and unite them into
one stupendous, magnificent mn
scum. They opened ON West Seven
teenth street. A friend was sta
toned at the door to proclaim the
wonders within and accept silver of
ferings from those who entered while
Mr.. Davis performed his tricks and
Mr. Smith showed the calf.
The first day business was pros
porous. The gate receipts were s1.95,
but the second day visitors were few.
Then the proprietors put their heads
together and decided that the lacl. of
music was what hindered their show
from rivaling Barnums. So Mr..
Smith went uptown and bought a
hand organ, giving two dollars and
two watches for it. Contracts were
entered into with neighborhood small
boys to turn the crank and the show
proceeded. But it did not flourish.
No one came. Then Mr.. Davis cent
Mr.. Smith off to get a colored GUAR
tet of singers, which runor said could
be had cheap, and while the Kansas
Snowman was gone Mr.. Davis closed
the show and made off with most of
the goods, including the hand organ.
Mr.. Smith had his partner arrested
for stealing. Justice Joyce thought
Mr.. Davis showed an unseemly haste
in taking away the organ without
explaining matters to his partner, and
so fined him twenty-five dollars and
costs. Mr.. Smith has shipped his
four eyed, four cared, two tailed,
double headed, seven legged cali
home and will quit the show bust

WHAT A DOZEN IS.

A Very Elastic Term Meaning Anything
 from Two to Fifty.
 The child is taught at school that 8 dozen means twelve every time, but when the child grows into a man he finds that a dozen is a very elastic term. A bakers dozen is thirteen, and so Is publishers or news agents in many parts of the world. In some sec tions dozen of fish means twenty-six, and there are other anomalies of this kind. But to find dozen indicating anything from two to fifty it is neces- sary to go to the earthenware trade. Here the size and weight of articles de- eide how many make a dozen, and in jugs, bowls, plates and so on there are two, four, six, eight or more to the dozen. A dozen composed of twelve articles is very unusual thing in the wholesale pottery trade, and as re- suit there are few clerhships more diff cult to hold than in this line. I tried the work once and failed ignominiously, says writer in the St. Louis Globe Democrat. To have to find the cost of five hundred articles at so much a dozen when that dozen may mean any thing, is very difficult task until a man gets thoroughly used to it. That is easy then, have been told, though I never got used to it sufficiently to know of my own knowledge.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1892-09-14
Waterbury Represented d Washington by Wadhams
 Post,

In response to the wishes of grea many people outside of Wadham's Post, a citizens committee has. been appointed to receive subscriptions to help defray the expenses of some of Waterbury's old vst- 'rans who cannot go unless the where with is supplied. This appeals to our higher nature with peculiar force. In all ages the claims of the soldier has touched responsive cord in the hearts of the people. There is no better way left for us to honor the hundreds of thousands who died to save the Union, than to sacrifice a little for the comfort of the living repre- sentatives who are heIe left to tell the tale. This will be the largest gathering of the Grand Army at the national capitol since the close of the war, and every old veter- an will make special effort to be present on this memorable occasion. The joy the soldiers will feel on meeting their old comrades once more at Washington will be unspeakable. Let us help our own veterans of Wadham's Post to go to Wash ington with light heart.
 We sincerely regret the time Is so short in which to receive subscriptions, but we must make the best of it. Every dollar must be in by Saturday night next.
 Those selected to receive subscriptions for this purpose are E. 0. LEWIS, l.. |. MUNsoN, and JOHN MoRIARTY.
