Capaciter three leads?

That might be two capacitors in one package. The single lead would be the negative and the other two would each be for an independent capacitor. Don't know how old the Mercury tube tester is (I'm 68, and I'd tend to think it's pretty close to my age), but back in the days of tube circuitry, two and even more individual capacitors in the same neat package were very common.
