AURORA'S RABY SIIOV.
Only One Set of Triplets aid They Bag
the President' Gold Eagle.
BuflVo, N. Y., Sept. 14. Between
5,000 and 6,00') people Headed the
East Aurora fiir toky. There
were the usual entries of f.mcy htctk,
agricultural implements and products
fancy needlework, besides a baud
tournament, but all these were throw n
into the Hhade by a baby show. There
were nearly fifty entries for prizes.
The most interesting were the taj -lets,
the children of Mr. and Mrs.
Albert D. Diirt, formers living in the
town of East Hamburg, Ida, Moliie
and Roy, the aggregate weight at
birth six and a half months ago was
twenty seven pounds. The triplets
of Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Loomis of
North Bay, Oneida county, did not
arrive in time to enter, so the Dart
trio got President Cleveland's gold
eagle. There are three sets entered
and great difficulty was experienced
in securing competent judges. The
honor of awarding the president's
prize was offered to some of the
doctors from Europe who attended
the recent . medical congress, but
they declined on the ground of in
competency. Ooy. Hill's prize of
$25 for the best colored twins
aroused great interest on Crow Hill
in Buffalo. Half the colored popu
lation of the Queen city secured
tickets to the show. In order t
avoid possible trouble growing out
of jealousy a sign was posted at th
gate reading "Razors must lie left
in the ticket office."
The colored twins, Romeo and
Juliet Johnson, of Pittsburg, go.

.waiter in a restaurant Mrs. John
Wardwell,' of Manila, aged 31 years,
presented twelve children and took a
nickle plated cook stove. John Hart,
ten children, took a set of silver
spoons. Twenty-five more infants
were presented, together with six
colored infants, up to the age of two
years. The largest prize was $20,
but every one received a silver nap
kin ring. To-inorrow Clarence Lam ,
aged 34 years, will bo married in a
wagon, preseuted to him, to Miss
Louisa Rodmer, of Elina, by tht
Rev. Mr. West, of East Aurora.
Rev. Dr. Talmage, of Brooklyn,. ha
telegraphed that he cannot be pres
ent. Presentations amounting tc
1,000 have already been given the
prospective bride and groom, includ
ing two dozen solid silver spoons
from Qen. Benjamin. They will gi
at once to housekeeping. During
the races Rev. Dr. S. R. Puller, o

Last week a number of our ex
changes contained a wonderful ac
count of a cat being photographed
on the bald head af a Michigan man.
It was done by lightning. Thu
week we find a story to the effect
that while a girl was dressing kernel.
during a storm her pet pug dog rai
in, she grabbed it in her arms am
pressed it to her bosom; just then it
was killed by a streak of lightning
And the dog, color, wrinkle
and all, are now photographed oi
tue girl's bosom. What kind of ai
animal will be photographed next
week, and what part of the body wil
be selected for the display of tht
photo, we are unable to state. We
could make a- few . suggestions to
some of these notorious liars, but
