A Happy Reunion.

A romantic episode. wherein were
united mother and her son after sep
sration Of twenty-five years, eliminated
here this week. Nearly q quarter OF a
century ago the father Of NJ. b. Ball died
in Wisconsin, and the lad, then 10 years
old, made his home with an uncle in
Iowa. In few years the uncle died,
and young Rail began rowing career
that has taken him all over the western
states, Canada and Alaska. Thus the
mother and son became estranged and
lost to each other. Only at long inter.
walls did he write to hrs home folks, but
he changed his address so often that not
once in all these years did he get word
from them. A few months ago me wrote
to his sister, who unknown to him had
died, from Ash Fork, and his mother,
now Mrs. Reifsnider, feeling the weigh,
Of her declining years, yearDed tor her
son. She left her home IN Wisconsin
and started on her quest. Arriving at
Ash Fork, she learned that her sou had
left the place. with instructions to for
ward his mail to Winslow. Mrs. Reif.
snider arrived here Monday and was told
that young man named Rail was work.

HERE is A WONDERFUL EGG.

A large specimen of the egg of the
tabled roc of the "Arabian Nights. y
or Aepyornis, as the extinct gigantic
bird of Madagascar is called, has been
secured by Mr. J. Proctor of Tamatave
and Princes Square, W., who has
brought the curiosity to London.
1t was discovered by some natives
about twenty miles to the southwark
of st. Augustine's Bay, on the south
western coast of Madagascar. 1t was
floating on the calm sea, within twenty
yards of the beach, and is supposed to
have been washed away with the fore
shore, which consists of sandhills, after
hurricane in the early part of the
year.
The childlike longshoreman of the
antipodes, opining that the egg had a
value, showed the unusual piece of
flotsam about with a view to sale, and
it thus came into the hands of Mr.,
Proctor. The egg, which is white
brown in color and unbroken, is fine
specimen, 49, inches by 2S inches,
and an even higher value is placed
upon it than upon the egg of the great
aux, which lived within the memory OF
man.
The Rrohdiguagian proportions of
the egg are better demonstrated by com
parison with the eggs of the ostrich and
crocodile. An ostrich's egg is about
II inches by Is inches, and the con-
tents of six such are only equal to one
egg of the Aepy ornis. The measure
ments of the egg of the crocodile are
normally 8 inches by 6 = inches. 1t
would require the contents of sixteen
and one-half emu's eggs to equal the
contents of this great egg, or las eggs
of the homely fowl, or 10000 of the
humming bird The last egg of the
kind disposed of in London sold fol-
600, though cracked

clear way above him, he has one last
chance, and desperate one it is. He
goes to work and knocks off his back
and chest weights, shuts the escape
vlave which lets out the used-up air i'll
his helmet, gets himself as full of air
as ever he can, then cuts the tube above
him, when, if he has luck, he tears
clear and shoots up through the water.
OF course it's risky chance, and to
prevent too quick a rush up, you have
to fasten your waist line to somewhere
below, and hold on to it going up.
Il remember my poor comrade, Jim
Rollins. Jim got fouled somehow, and
decided upon cutting his tube, so he
signals for more air, and away the
pumps go, till suddenly there is a rush
of bubbles through the water, and next
moment we feel blow on the bottom
of our boat. Heavens, that's JIM
cried; and SO it was. We got hold Of
him as quick as lightning and had him
aboard and his helmet off in no time;
but the poor chap was dead, sir-dead
as a herring. An hour or two after
ward great blue line showed all
around his chest and shoulders, just
where the helmet sits. The doctor said
he must have hit our keel full kilt
with his head, and the blow drove the
helmet with such force as to crush all
the lungs and things in his chest. He
forgot to fix his waist line, poor chap,
and you see he couldn't stop his shoot
ing up.

GERMANY'S FIGHTING MAN.

The new German uniform, in which
the spiked helmet is to be replaced by
the kept, or fatigue cap, makes the
marching kit of the German soldier
thirteen pounds lighter than it was,
and, with the exception of Italy, lighter
than that carried by the soldiers of any
continental power. The stand-up col
lar, for instance, is to be replaced by
turned down one; the length of the coat
is to be curtailed, the calico shirt is to
be exchanged for one made of some
knitted texture the upper parts of the
boots are to be made of lighter leather,
and the nails employed in them are to
be manufactured of lighter metal The
knapsack and its contents will be con-
siderably lightened. The weight of
the polishing materials and of the
timed food will be reduced by 200 and
400 grammes respectively. The hinder
cartridge pouch will disappear. and to
compensate for it's loss the two front
ones will each contain forty. five in
stead Of thirty cartridges, as hitherto,
while an extra reserve supply of thirty
per man will follow in the rear. Fur
Their, the present bayonet will be super
seeded by a new model weighing between
400 and 500 grammes less, the belts,
etc., will be made of narrower leather,
the mountings Of the helmets will be
made of aluminium and reduced in size,
and the overcoats will not be SO thickly
padded as heretofore.

AN ILLUSTRATED LECTURE.

We learn from a New York contem-
porary that some time since three tall
Mr.. Robinson. six feet
high, and the Rev. Phillips Brooks,
six feet two inches high, both of Bos-
ton, and the Rev. DIR. McVicker six
feet four inches high, of Philadelphia
made i'll company a trip to this
country. Enroute, they determined
that, when they should reach England,
they would travel apart, lest three such
tall men together should provoke re-
mark. But arriving at well-known
town in Yorkshire, and learning that
a lecture was to be delivered to work
ingmen OH America, the three deter
mined to be present. Entering the hall
separately they took seats apart. AS
the lecturer proceeded, his utter ignor-
ance of America soon became manifest
to the three Americans. Finally. how
ever, statement concerning the size of
dured in silence. The speaker had
barely time to conclude a sentence as
serting that Americans are proyerbially
short of stature, never exceeding at the
utmost five feet ten inches, when Mr..
Robinson arose and said: my friends,
| am an American, and, as you see, l
measure fully six feet. If there is any
other American who happens just now
to be in the house. | request him to
stand up" An expression of surprise
was followed by roars of laughter as the
Rev. Phillip Brooks arose and said, II
am an American, and my size, six feet two
inches. occasions no particular remark
in America. If there is any other
American IN the house, l i'll turn re-
quest him to stand up" After lapse
of a few seconds in order to give the
lecturer little time to recover him
self, DIR. McVicker slowly raised his
majestic figure to it's full height of SIX
feet four, and began-"I am an Anne
-" But this was too much, and he
could not get any further The au-
dience had lost all control of them
selves, and the speakers disappearance
from the stage brought the entertain
ment to premature close. London
