OWNER OF RING
OBTAINS JEWEL
LETTER FROM NEEDLES, CAL,
CLEARS UP MYSTERY OF
STRANGE FIND
Mrs. c. 3. Pldduck, Daughter Of MIR.
and Mrs. Thomas Rimmer Of This
City Receivers Her Wedding Ring
Unusual Story Of Disappearance.

From Tuesdays Daily.
The owner of the ring is found. She
is Mrs G. B. Pidduck of Needles, Cali
fornia, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Thomas Rimmer of this city, residing
at 500 Mabel street.
Readers of the Courier will doubt
less remember the strange story of the
ring found in a cloak at Phillips Big
Store, which was published Tuesday
December 4. Miss Sarah Spiwak dis
covered gold band ring in the pocket
OF a winter cloak which she was try
ing on No one could tell where the
circlet came from, neither did any one
remember showing the coat previously
as it was of entirely new stock. Mr..
Phillips took the ring to a jeweler at
the time and it was pronounced to be
Of first-class quality.
Thomas Rimmer Receives Letter.
Yesterday Mr.. Runner received
letter from his daughter. Mrs. G. B.
Pidduck of Needles, California, which
clears up the mystery and establishes
without doubt her rightful owner
ship of the jewel. Mrs. Pidduck had
been in the city at the time visiting
at the home of her parents. While
here she purchased a cloak from Phil
lips store and took it home with her
on approval. Later she decided that
the cloak was too short for her and
brought it back and exchanged it for
another. AS she left the store, she
remembered that she had left a hand
kerchief in the pocket of the cloak
and returned for It,
Ring Slips From Finger.
The clerk handed the garment to
Mrs. Pidduck and she obtained her
handkerchief from the pocket, at Che
same time unknowingly leaving her
ring. AS Mrs Pidduck was to return
to her home in Needles that same
day, she proceeded to pack her trunk
as soon as she reached her parents
home. Not until after the trunk was
entirely packed and strapped did she
miss her ring. At the time she
thought that 1t must have slipped from
her finger in the packing and decided
to wait until she reached her home be.
fore looking for it.
Reads Story In the Courier.
The following day Mr. Rimmer saw
the account of the unusual find print
ed in the Courier and Immediately
sent the paper to his daughter, realiz-
ing that the ring held by Mr. Phillips
was undoubtedly the wedding ring ct
his daughter. The letter received yes
terday tells Of the incident and de-
i scribes the cloak and ring exactly.
Mr.. Phillips returned the ring to Mr..
Rimmer last evening in the presence
of a reporter, and the lost property
will be mailed to the owner at once.

nest, but 1t is useless giving figures this
week, as the first series OF coupons does
not run out till the 18th, and there must
be lots Of people boarding them up for
next week. What the outing contest man
wants to Impress upon the fair contest.
ants, however, isS not to hold the tcoupons
too long or they may become valueless
by having lapsed, for those that do not
reach this office at least by the day after
that Of the date printed on them will
not be worth anything. Then, again, you
must be impressed with the fact that tho
weather is hot, to say the least Of IT.,
and that If the coupons come In q few
every day It will materially lessen tho
work pf the office staff In counting them
than II you leave them all to come In
on the same day. You will all naturally
wan to know how you stand every week:
to do this 1t Is imperative that only
those votes that come In by noon on
Saturday next, the 18th OF June, will be
able to be counted in next weeks rating
of the contestants. f
There are Just these facts to be care-
fully borne in mind: 81

worth two votes. .s r q FL
q Every cent collected for renewal
subscriptions is worth one vote.
g. That every cent collected for new
su descriptions Is worth three votes.
A. That there are ten parties from tho
city Of Richmond and ten parties resident
in the state outside Of Richmond 10 get
the benefit OF these FREQ outing tours.

the fact that our friends in the State
do not seem to be fully alive to- this fact,
and that they do not in any way come.

The competition Is absolutely separate as

into your minds that one day during the
