THERE are two members of Bragg's
Iron Brigade in this city, Sanford and
August Gehbe. Gehbe is non-committal
but Sandford thinks he would rather
have Bragg's soldier record than be the
highest officer of the Grand Army. And
there is just where Sandford is foolish.
Bragg's services aren't valued penny's
worth just now. He isn't the kind of
soldier who is brought to the front.

Gettysburg Paintings.

A fair sized audience greeted Comrade
j. F. Chase at the exhibition of the
paintings representing the Battle OF
Gettysburg, Saturday evening, and the au-
dience was greatly interested in his vivid
description of the movements of the
troops and the battle scenes, as Maine
audience always is in everything con-
nected with this great three days battle
in which Maine troops bore such an
honorable part.
The painting showing the lines of the
two contending armies, the village of
Gettysburg, the road, leading into it and
the hills, fields and woods surrounding it
is an accurate delineation of the field.
The exhibition of this one painting with
Mr.. Chase's explanation of the positions
of the different Corps, and that of the
Maine regiments and batteries is worth
much more than the price of admission.
Mr.. Chase was a gunner in the 9TH
Maine Battery, and was terribly wounded
on tho third and last day of the battle.
He therefore was an eyewitness of the
great event, and, Furthermore, has visit
ed every part of the field, several times
since in company with Confederate as
we'll as Union Otilcers in order to make
himself entirely familiar with 1t and with
the movement of the troops. He Is

earist party of Washington, Adams
Hamilton etc, gave to much power to
the head of the Government at Washing
ton instead of the state rights" theory
paper standing squarely on that plat
form, would appear rather venerable, es-
pecially as its old opponent the Federal
ist party passed into 'innocuous desue-
tude' more than half century ago. The
"ad" is to be taken nguratively, undoubt
edly, and not literally, as there is moth
ing ancient in the appearance Of the Ar
gus. Why this claim of antiquity? Its
platform and principles are very different
now from 1904.
