When Jim Shields returned from Chicago
a few days ago, he asserted very positive
~ that he hadn't brought a. single new
story with him. He unwittingly proved
himself mud prevaricator yesterday
when he told the very latest to a group
OF friends in the Knutsford rotunda in the
presence of the Corridor reporter AS he
made the assertion in self-defense, how
by those who have the opportunity OF
laughing with him. The story is worth
repeating, so here it is:
While in Chicago Jim was stroiling
down Van Buren, street one day, when he
observed two gentlemen of African decent
engaged in an animated discussion in front
of a bill board on which was posted the
paper of the Selis-Forepaugh circus, which
was billed to appear at an early date. AS
1T was evident the bills furnished the sub
ject for debate. Jim became interested and
stopped to see what was unusual in the
coming of the circus. It must not be adj
nlitted that Jim was curious to hear the
conversation. but he did hear it and this
is what he heard:
"G'long now, ! tells yo' ole John Robi'-
sons circus SIDE biggest circus in de WORT +,
don know? Didn' / trabble wive ole John
Robf sons circus?''
Colored Gentleman No. 2.-'Yo look
