Queer stories of How Their DIsnp-
pcnrancc Was Accounted For.
From the New Orleans Times-Democrat.
Last summer p. c. Aurbacher went to
California on pleasure trip. and during
the month of July visited a number of
vineyards In the neighborhood of Fresno.
About this time he missed from his pos
session a valuable ring, an emerald, with
quantity wrought setting, which had been
an heirloom in the family for many years.
Every effort was made by Mr.. Aurbacher
to recover the jewel at the time, but in
vain. A few days since he bought a box
of new crop Fresno raisins, and sent
them to his wife TO make a fruit cake.
What was Mrs. Aurbacher's astonish-
ment and joy on opening the box and
picking the raisins from the stem pre-
paratory to seeding them to find her hus-
bands ring, safe and sound, clinging to
one of the punches Mr.. Aurbacher must
have dropped Inc ring into one of the big
bunch Of grapes as It hung In the vine
yard, where II chung safely, to be re-
stored to him in this singular way months
afterward.
A lady living on Prytania street lost
a fine diamond setting from a ring which
she wore constantly, and every effort to
find the gem was unaVailing. About a
week after a pet canary bird, of which
she was very fond, and which she had

The diamond was uninJured, but most
probably caused the death of the bird.
Last December sam ClaTkson was
thrown into the depths of despair by the
disappearance Of a ring which had been
given him by no less an individual than
his fiancee, Miss Felicite Hebert of the St
Larry countrdy. IL seems that Sam failed
to report his loss to Miss Felicite at the
time Of the rings disappearance, ana the
young lady was not aware of II until she
visited the city during the holidays.
When she questioned Sam about IL, he
gave such equivocal and confusing an
swers, hoping to recover the ring before
he confessed its loss, that her suspicious
were aroused, and quite a serious lovers
quarrel resulted therefrom. In fact, poor
Sam was given his walking papers, and
was In misery until a kind fate restored
his ring to him by the following curious
means:

Talks on the Last Days of the Confed-
rags "Americans Are. One in Spite
of Strength
indianapolis, November IA large
audience, composed chiefly OF veterans,
last night, heard Gen. John B. Gordon,
of Confederate famu, deliver lecture in
Plymouth church, on 1.-THE last days of
the Confederacy.
After talking two hours, the striking
incident occurred of Northern audience
calling out to a rebel general, who was
promising to stop, $50 on, go on. :"
General Gordon referred to this as show
ing the completeness of reconciliation.
The address was received with contin-
uous evidences of favor.
The following is ex-President Harri-
sons Introductory address:
s'Ladies and gentlemen-I don't believe
q lecture of Bismarck on the last days OF
the Franco Prussian war would be list
ened to in Paris, but we shall listen to-
night, not only without prejudice, but
with very great pleasure to q lecture from
that distinguished soldier and statesman,
General Gordon of Georgia. The two
conditions are widely different. We have
not lost Alsace and Lorraine. We have
not lost any territory. We are tonight
again Union of all the states, under
one flag, loved by all it's people. We are
cherishing no revenge. we are tonight
asking only this question of any man,
s'Does he love the Constitution and the
fag?" (Applause.) And this question
our distinguished friend has already
doubly answered (Applause There
was some good accruing that long ana
bloody strife, and we learned to have
better appreciation of each other. Before
the war the South undervalued the North
and the North undervalued the South.
In that struggle we learned to Vaiue eacn
other for what we are worth ana 10 hnu
in each other that courage, that enou-
rance. that devotion to cause which is
characteristic of Americans and made us
one in spite of our strife, and not that
only, for 1 shall go through the cata-
looue. it has given us magnificent pre-
paration for the next war. (Applause.

during the war. ana thefe mas oeen
GREAT deal of military criticism since to
the relative advantages possessed by the
Confederate and the Union armies. We
had ample war material and larger popu
lation All OF these questions have been
discussed. Perhaps we did not have
fair test of who were the better men, but
if this country should ever again assem-
BILE great army and Georgia shoaId
charge with Indiana, then we should
know, and woe to those that must meet
that resistless charge. 1t is a subject of
profound qualification and rejoicing to
every true American that the prejudice
and asperity both of the anti-war discus
sion and of the war itself are being wiped
out, and that we are today one in our

and that we present to every foreign foe
that threatens us united, solid, courag-

THE STATE REED CLUB.
Letters Sent to Prominent Republicans and
Rousing Response Expected.

to start State Reed Club under the
auspices of the Lincoln Club of Port

Dear Sir-In view of the near approach
of the Presidential campaign of 1896 and
the prominence of an eminent citizen OF

a great aid, and should be made IN pro-
noting and pressing to successful issue
the cause of our honored fellow citizen.
The superiork advantage of well-direct-
ed and concentrated effort is apparent,
especially to those who have attended
previous national conventions and that
the influence of Maize may be unmis-
takably felt, the initiative already has
been taken, and Henry B. Cleaves, George
P. Wescott, Weston..F. Milliken, Edward
P. Chase and Thomas p Shaw have been
appointed committee by the Lincoln
Club of this city, to correspond with
prominent men Of our state, relative to
the organization of a Reed Club of the
State OF. Maine"
This committee is to report tie result
of it's efforts,s and whenEa sufficient num-
Der have signified their approval and CO.
operation. notice will be sent out calling
a meeting for organization, election of
officers and the appointment of the. nee
essary committees. 1t is anticipated that
large delegation from this club will
attend the convention.
Approaching your great interest in the
Republican party and feeling that your
assistance would be most valuable in pro-
noting the success and honor of our can
didate, the committee would be pleased
to have you unite with others lin form
ing State of Maine Reed Club.
