Dim: GAZE'ITEi—Tile eleventh reunion of
t‘ie Army of the Cumberland is to be held in
his city on the 19th and :01: i of November.
Tm.- prominent feature of the reunion will be
the ceremonies attending the unveiling of the
briiitiful equestrian statue of that gallant old.
hero, General George H. Thomas. It is said
to be one of, if not the finest production of
artcrer seen ii. t iis country ‘.". liilc in rriag to
commemorate the virtue, worth an l \‘uitll of
me 0‘ our greatest soldiers and of the but
of nient,iwill he a valuable addition ti tl.c
alrea n1 numerous works of art which adorn
this bum. tlt'iil (ity. “Tap" Thomas was
probably the most. popular commanding oili—
cer in the Union Am is during the Late war.
A Virginian by lirth and :r thorough Soiitl -
erner by association, he re led true to the
Union when his former cor.."ad_es and blood
relations, friends and kins 4311 went with
their states. ‘
The stolen $500 bond which was offered
for sale it; Philadelphia,reached the Treasury
Department recently in charge of detectives
and olliccrs of the Manhattan Bank. After
a brief examination by First Comptroller
Porter it. was found that the number of the
bond had been partially erased and otherwise
altcrcd. It; was then referer to the chief
engraver of the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing, who almost instantly discovered the
original number, notwithstanding the several
altdrations which had been made in order to
dispose of it without creating suspicion.
There is no doubt now that the bond is one
of tlioSe stolen from the Manhattan Bank.
The cause of the Indian outbreak— now a
' matter of contention between the War and
Indian Ollices as to who is to biame——is to
be made the subject of a Cabinet discussion.
Congressman Wait, of Connecticut, has
asked the Postmaster General to rescind his
order as-to mailing letters addressed to names
of towns instead of to names of the port.

order until after further trial.
The P. 0. Department has also issued an
order, on the decision of the Attorney Gen—
eral forbidding. the forwarding of any letters

American Insdtutc Fair.
The magnitude of the great exhibition now
being he d in New York, needs be seen to
be appreciated. For the first week or so
there was some little confusion. The goods
has not all arrived, and some of the stands
were not perfectly arranged, but. now every-
thing is finished, all the stands are in per-
fect working order and it. would be difficult
to even suggest an improvement. Excellent
as the previous fairs of the American In-
stitute always have been, this one far sur-
passes them all, and even Mr. Charles
Wager Hall, the indefatigable General Su-
perintendent, and hard working chief, who
drew out all the plans and personally directed
the dttalls of all the arrangements, is con-
tent to stand on the, platform at the head
of the main aisle, look over the results of his
labors and calulations, and confess that he ‘is
satisfied. .
From nine o’clock in the ‘morning until
ten at night, the vast building is handsomely
filled with crowds of curiosity seekers who
swarm along the aisles and passage ways
admiring the hundreds of beautiful exhibits
set out before them. On the main floor
ladies by scores are examining the mysteries
of all kinds of prepared flour, toilet soaps,
washing soaps, prepared fruits, fancy crack-
ers and everything also that is good to eat
or drink or useful in the household, them
they admire new styles of hair dressing new
fashions in dresses, under wear, shoes, and
everything else that belongs to the mys-
teries of a ladies dressing room, kitchen,
parlor or 'work room, they stop to look at
new {angled sewing machines, knitting ma-
chines, washing machines, pianoes, refrig—
erators, patent ranges, cooking stoves and
everything conCcivable from a patent rat
trap to a beautiful set of gold furniture, then
they go into Humbliu’s restaurant, have an
ice cream, or some oysters or a light lunch
and return rested, and'rcady to go through
all the other beautiful departments 'of the
fair '
For the gentlemenrtherc are quite as many
interesting exhibits as for the ladies, no mat:-
tcr whether they are farmers, merchants,
' manufacturers, ministers, doctors, mechanics
or what else, and we heartily advise all our
readers, y’iungaud old rich and poor, grnm
and jolly to pay at least and visit. to tbegreat

Killing Personal Enemies with
Iiupuuity.
We venture to assert, though, of course,
without having the figures at. hand, that no
conviction for murder has ever taken place
in Mississippi in any case in which the
prisoner was able to show that the killing
was the result of a previous quarrel, or that
he had reason for bearing a grudge to his
victim. We have ourselVes had a man of
. . . . \
good standing in MissisSippi pointed out to
us, before. the War, who had [titled thirteen
persons and had never been convicted. In
fact, if General Woodford had known the
South :1 little better he would have known
that the old common law rule, which makes
malice prepcnse tell against the accused, is
and always has been, reversed in the slave
states. In them he has always pleaded it in
bar or in cxtcnuation.— Union.

A “ROUND Ur" on A COLORADO CATTLE
Raven—As in more primitive days the difg
ferent Lherds ranged intermingled over the
public domain, so do they novv astray from
ranch to ranch, and at certain seasons of the
year they must be collected and‘ separated.
They are diit'nguishcd by earmarks, and
more especially by brands, said brands being
conclusive and universally accepted evidence
of 0Wnersliip. In June and July, and in
Sept -mber and October, “rounding up.” or
the grand colltction and separation. takes
place. For each district :1 master or direc—
tor of the "round up” is chosen, whose or-
ders are implicitly obeyed by the working
force, consisting of from twenty to fifty
men furnished by the ranchmcn of the dis
trict. in proportion to then-holdings. They
have two or three horses apiece, and are ac-
cimpanied by assistants, herders, cooks,
etc, etc. Starting from a given point, tak-
iO; :. :cgnhir course, and camping every
n‘g-H, they sweep over the rang-es. Each

A Boom for a Colorado 'I‘owu.
Eight years ago yesterday, on the present
site of the Colorado Springs Hotel, the first;
st ike for this city was driven. For the first
two or three years the anniversary was cele-
brated by appropriate public exercises, but
fur years past this has been discontinued.
We want to suggest new a grand celebration
July 31, 1872, the tenth anniversary. Those
who have had the shaping of the affairs
of this prosperous city cannot help feel
proud of their work. Eight years ago this
was a pasture for the antelope; now we
have a beautiful city, with elegant residences
a.populatiou Of 5,000, shade trees on our
streets which areas flourishing and abundant
as in cities a score of years older, the best
water-works in the State, stock subscribed
for gas-works, two daily papers, publishing
as full telegraphic news as any in the State,
fine schools, churches, a college, and every
other mark of solid and substantial, growth.
More than all this, the object of the fuon-
dcrs to kcepthis city free from the evils of-
ihc ordinary Western towns, such as intern
pei-iince, gambling and dance~houses, have
been steadily kept in view. Without boast—
ing, we may claim that our city is the clean-
est and most healthful of any in the State
both from a sanitary and moral point of ivew.

General Grant has developed a very pretty
talent for making neat speeches and his
Oregon one is more than usually felicitons.
Alluding to “the struggles of the past," he
said:
I am glad that they are at an end. It never
was a pleasure to me that they had a begin-
ning. The result has left us a nation to be
proud of, strong, strongat home and respect—
ed abroad. Our reputation has extended be-
yond the civilized nations. It: has penetrated
even the less civilized parts of the earth. In
my travels I have noticed that foreign nations
appear to respect us more than we respect
ourselves. I have noticed the grandeur at
which we have been estimated by other pow-
ers, and their judgments should give us a
higher estimate of our own greatness. They
recognize that poverty,as they understand it,
is not known with us, and the man of com-
parative affluence with them is sometimes no
better clad or fed than our paupers. No
where are there better elements of succeSs
than on the Pacific coast. Here those who
fought on opposite sides during the war are
now peaceably associated together in a coun-
try of which they all have the same right. to
be proud.

’Something for the republicans of Connec-
ticut to think of just now and up to the No-
vember election. The democrats can only
retain control of the United States Senate by
electing the next senators from Connecticut,
Indiana and New Jersey. The Senate now
stands: Democrats .41, republicans 34, inde-
pendent 1. The relative strength of the two
parties at the close of the Forty-sixth Con-
gress, deducting the names of. those whose
terms expire in 1881, will be: Democratic 27
republicans 23. Of the twenty-five senators
whose ter'expire March 1881, fourteen
are democrats and eleven republicans. The
election of twelve republican senators from
California, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan,
Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada. Ohio, Penn-
sylvania, Rhodc Island, Vermont,Wlsconsin,
is sure , while it: is equally certain that the
democrats will elect nine senat us from
Delaware, Florida, Maryland, Mississippi,
Missouri, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and
West Virginia, which will make their
strength thirty-six. New York, is hardly-a
doubtful State since the Ohio election, so
that the democrats will concentrate all their
efforts upon Connecticut, New rsey and
Indiana. If the republicans should carry all
these they" fill have a majority of one in the
Senate, leaving David Davis' out of the ac- '
count. The loss of the legislature this year
would in all probability make it impossible
for the republicans to secure a majority of
the legislature of 1881. Every-republican in
Connecticut should remember that upon his
vote in the coming election may depend rc-
publicaa supremacy in the United States
Senate in 1881, when a republican President
will be inaugurated and the lower branch of '
Congress will undoubttdly be republican.—

A story of'l‘liurnian by an Alleged
Friend.
Judge Thurman is not a statesman in the
sense that sagacity, breadth of view and
fixed purposes are statesmanship He is
pre-emincntly a lawyer—a sharp, industri—
ous, pugnacious lawyer. He is fond of in—
tellectual scrimmaging, and shines in that
species of warfare. It is related that on a.
certain occasion, soon after the elevation
of Mr. Blaine, and when that doughty war—
rior was seeking a chance to make his debut
to advantage, his eyes fell upon the senator
from Ohio as he entered the senate chamber.
Thurman obviously had been dining. Blaine
thought he saw his opportunity and leap—
ed into the arena; he shied his cas—
tor in the ring; he flaunted his
bloody shirt directly at. the red
band-ans; insolent, audacious and pert,
Thurman climbed to his feet and jerked
himselt'together and closed With his assail-
ant. “'l‘hey fit and fit." Intellectually they
rolled-over on the floor, gouged, pulled hair,
and beat one another above the head, neck
and shoulders. At. length it was over, and
a good deal blown, but yet conscious of hav-
ing licked his man, Thurman said audibly,
as he made his way toward the cloak room,
attended by his faithful friends, Davis of
West. Virginia and Pinckney Wliytc of Ma-
ryland, “Boys, that d—d harlequin didn’t
get away with me, did he ?” “No, indeed,
Senator," said Davis and Wliytc in a breath,
“you did splendidly—splendidly.” And
just as he disappeared inside the cloak room
Thurman was heard to mutter above the
din of the bugle note which died in the
depth of his red bandana—“Nevcr mind!
never mind! one of these days I’ll catch
him when I‘m sober, and then, d—n him.
won’t I mash him ?”—L0uisvflle, Courier—

HOW LISTZ BECAME A IIUglND.
~ The following story of the marriage Cf
Listz, the pianist, is, if true, certainly: very
remarkable and romantic. It is as follows :
Listz was at Prague in the autuuffI o; 1846.
The day after his arrival a strafig Ygirdled
upon him and represented himsblf’ as a
brother artist in distress, having expended
all his means in an unsuccessful lawsuit, and
solicited aid to enable him tireturu to Nu-
remberg, his place of residence. Listz gave
him a hearty reception and opened his desk
to get some money, but found he possessed
only three ducats.
“You see,” said the generous artist “that
I am as poor as yourself. However, I have
credit,and I cancoin more money with my
piano. I have here a miniature given me by
the Emperor of Austria; the paint rig in of
little value, but the diamonds are very fine ;_
take it. sell the diamonds, and keep the
money."
The stranger refused the rich gift, but
Listz compelled him to take it, and In: car-
ried it to a jeweler, who, suspectiu,r from
his miserable appearance t. mt lie but stolen
it, had him arrested and thrown int) prison .
The stranger sent. for his gt uerous bene-
factor,who immediately called. upon the jew-
eler and told him that the man was innocent
and-that he had given him the diamonds.
“But who are you 1*” said the jeweler.
“My name- is Listz,” he replied.
“I know of no financier of that nume,”said
the jeweler.
“Very possible,” said Listz.
“But; do you know that these diamonds are
Worth six thousand florins ?”
“So much the better for him to whom I
gave them.”
“But you must be very rich to make such
presents 1’” - . -
“My sole fortune consists of three ducats."
said Listz. ' ' -
' “Then you are a fool,” said the jeweler.
“No.” said Listz. “I have only_ to move
the ends of my fiogcrs to get as much money
as I want.”
“Then you are a sorcerer,” said the jew—
eler. ,
"‘I will show you the kind of sorcery that
I cm'ploy," said Listz. _
Seeing a piano in the back parlor of the
jeweler's shop, the eccentric artist sat. down
to it, and began to improvise a ravishing air.
A beautiful young lady made her appearance,
and at the close of the performance exclaim-
ed, "Bravo, Listz !"
“You. know him, then ?” said the jeweler
to his daughter. '
“l have never seen him before," she said ;
“but there is no one in the world but letz
who‘ can produce such sounds from the
piano.” .
The jeweler was satisfied,the stranger was
released and relieved, the report of Listz be-
ing in the city flew, and he was waited upon
and feted by the nobles, who besonght him
to give a concert in their city. The jeweler
seeing the homage that was paid to the man
of genius, was ambitions of forming'an alli-
ance with him. .
“How do you find my daughter ?"
“Adorable l” was the reply.
“What do you think of marriage ?" contin-
ued the jeweler.
“Well enough to try it,” said Listz.
“What do you say to a dowry of three mil-
lion f francs!" he was next asked.
“I will accept of it, " was the reply, “and
thank you too." '
“Well, my daughter likes you and you
like her," said the jeweler; “the dowry is
ready. Will you be my son-in-luw ?”
“Gladly,” replied Listz, and the marriage
was celebrated the week following.
Who are the Southern Leaders ?
There are someOexccllent southern gentle-
men, iu ongress and out of it, who are very
much shocked at manifestations of southern
luwliness, like the shooting of a postmas—
ter in Blackvillcpthe expulslon of apost—
mistress fsom Grenada, the murder of Dixon
and the murder of the Chisolms; bugthey
are still more indignant at the northern
newspapers which make the facts public.
“Why,” they ask, “will the radical press
persist in sowing discord between the sec—
tions by harping on those unfortunate oc-
currences? Theie are bad and violent men
in the south, as. there are anywhere else,
but they arejnot the representatives of south-
ern character. We have a right to demand
that we shall be judged by our best people
and not by our worst.”
This would be a reasonable remonstrance
but for the inconvenient circumstance that
the bullies and men of blood have taken the
management of southern politics into their
hands and are not only running the adminis-
tration of “home rule” after their peculiar
fashion, but are applying the same violent
methods to the government of the whole
country. The manner in which they see fit
to elect. congressmen and legislators and to
treat. federal officers concerns 'not'themselves
alone but us too. The bulldozer'applies
the shot gun not merely to the correction of
the political opinions of the local. “niggers,”
but also to the subjugation of the free north.
Every political outrage in South Carolina
and Mississippi is in eflect' an attack upon
northernballot boxes. Every southern gen-
tleman who is sent. to congress by a. terror-
ized constituency to make laws for the whole
nation is practically repeating the bludgeon
work which Preston Brooks applied to his
controversy with Charles Sumner. It is the
height of insolence to ask us to submit to in;
in silence.
Southern gentlemen, so long as they ta.
office by the help of such outrages, have no
right to hold themselves above the perpetra-
tors. Thereis more than one southern sen-
here is one who is known to have been in
league with gangs of desperate men to'estab-
llsh by lawless violence the state govern—
ment which afterwards sent him to Wash-—
ington. Yet no southern democrat thinks
the worse of these gentlemen because they
have stooped to take advantage of fraud and
murder. They do not think the worse of
themselves. In truth, there is no vigorous
public condemnation of political outrages in
the southern states. Violence is some-
times abroad, or because it disturbs
the community, or from some such
feeling as moved the engine driver when
he said he hated to run over a man—it
mussed up the track so. But of genuine
indignation at political mob violence there is
hardly a trace. \ AMississippi jury would
not convict the Chisolm murderers. Repub-
licans in South Carolina beg their friends
here to say nothing about the murder of
Brice, lest the local courts and juries ref use
to punish the assassins “if the political
features of their crime are forced into pro m-
inence."
The south cannot ask to be judged by
her best men until she herself accepts these
best men for guides. At present they have
no perceptible influence upoh the behavior
of their townsmen. They are models of de-
portinent whom nobody imitates. ,The real
leaders are the men with the sth guns.—
Tribune.
There is one very important result of the
Ohio election says the Palladium, th'at has
not received sufilclent notice. The demo—-
cratic legislature, previous to the last gen-
eral election, redistricted the State in such
a way as to add at least four to the number
of democratic members of Congress, as com-
pared with the previous arrangement. The
republican legislature elected last. week will
have it. in its power to redistrict. the State
and by doing so fairly can prevent'the re-
election of Ewing to the House of Repre—
sentatives:next year and reduce the num—
ber of democratic members by from four to
six. Ohio alone can wipe out the majority
the democrats have in the lower branch of
the present Congress. It is, therefore, all
the more incumbent upon the republicans of
Connecticut to make sure that a republican
majority in the Senate shall not be lost by

Celebrated Safes, -
In purchasing a Safe, we wish to call your
attention to some of the important advantages
our Safes possess over all others, and which
make them the cheapest and best Safes now
made.
lat. Our “PATENT INSIDE BOLT WORK"
consists in placing the bolts and locks .on the
inside of the door (as shown in the cut above)
where they are at all times accessible, and
can be cleaned and kept in order, and thus
prevent them from unexpectedly locking you
out. In all other Safes the bolts are placed
next the outside plate of iron, being covered
completely by the filling, consequently im-
possible to oil or clean them without digging
out the filling,~ which is expensive, besides
losing the use of the Safe several days. As
the filling in on afes is between the locks
and bolts and th outside plate of the door,
in most cases we can unlock our safes on the
combination after they have passed through a
severe fire, which saves breaking them open.
2d. Our “PATENT HINGED Car” consists
of the back plate of the door being hung on
hinges, and fastened by a thumb-screw,which
enables one to have access to the locks and
bolts by simply removing the thumb-screw.
3d. While other safe-makers use three
wheel locks on their fire-proof safes (reserv-
ing the best four-wheel locks for bank safes),
safes, from the smallest to the largest, and for
simplicity and durability cannot be excelled.
_ 4th. All our Safes are IRON-LINED INSIDE,
instead of wood-lined as in other safes, which
enables us to use the the greatest amount of
water in our filling without danger of the
Safe’s being damp. All corners of _ the Safes
are secured with angle iron, which, together
with the very hard nature of our filling, pre-
vents them from injury from falling, or fall-
ing walls or timbers. Our Safes have 1'11qu
FLANGES Instead of single or double as in
others, and are made with and without inside
doors. In the great Boston fire our Safes had
the champion record, as was fully proved at
the time,.to these important improvements,
do we owe our success and the great‘ popular-
ity our safes have attained throughout the
country. After that. great fire we published
a complete list of our Safes exposed,those that
failed to preserve their contents, besides those
that were successful, and for months chal-
lenged our competitors to follow our example
which they would not. do, as theyknew that
by so doing they would only assist us in dem-
onstrating to the world the superiority of our
Safes, and our claim to the champion record.
Although that Great Fire so conclusively
proved the superiority of our Safes to resist
intense heat, we believed that we could im-
prove them, aud we have, therefore, since
that time, increased the thickness of the walls,
added to the number of flanges, and strength
ened them in various ways, , until we now
manufacture a. Safe betterthan ever before,
and unequalled for its excellence. It has been
our constant aim to make the BEST SAFE that
can be produced, believing that, especially in
purchasing a. safe to keep that. which may
have cost a lifetime to accumulate, the best. is
decidedly the cheapest. _ In these dull times
it is the custom of many safe~makers to man-
ufacture several grades of cheap safes, and
recommend that. which can be sold the cheap-
est, without regard to quality, and many
safes are now in use that are painted finely
outside, but are worthless to preserve their
We make but one class
of Safes, which is the best we know how to
produce. Send for descriptive catalogue.

AN AB’I‘ONISHING PICTURE OF SOCIAL CUSTOMS
017'].I 1N NEVADA.
, [From the Virginia. Chronicle.)
Yeflelfday afternoon John Meeker was tried
before Justice Knox on the charges of dis-
tin-hing “18 peace and assault and battery.
The case grew out of {disturbance which
.took place at n social party at. Mr. Adama’s
house, on South F street. It appeared that
the defendant, Meéker, had been invrted to .
little party at Aduns's house on Tuesday
evening. He attended the party, taking his
girl. Adams, in the course of the evening's
festivities, began to take liberties with the
girl, and Meeker raised a row, which ended
in an assault on Adams.
Adams, the complaining witness, testified
that while the frolic was in progress the de—
fendant charged him with improper conduct
toward the young lady he brought there, and
finally assaulted him striking him once in the
eye (eye exhibited to the jury).
Attorney for the‘defence—Mr..Adams, did
you not deport yourself in an unseemly way
toward the young lady ?
The witness—Not altogether.
Attorney-Now, didn’t you hug her?
Witness—Yes, by mistake. (The jury look
at one another in astonishment).
Attorney—Please explain. .
Witness—I was sitting on the sofa along-
side my wife when suddenly a gust of wind
put out the light. After the light. was ex-
tinguished I heard a noise as if people were
getting kissed [sensational], so I thought I’d
stand in. I grabbed the lady next to me,
thinking it was my' wife, and when the lamp
was relighted I found that it was Miss Clark
that I had hold of.
[The laughter in the room was checked by
Constable MetcnlfJ
Attorney—Did you kiss her ?
Witness (after some hesitation)—I don’t
think I did.
Attorney—Why are you not sure ?
thWitness—There was so much confusion at
e __
Attorney—Now, don’t you know you did ?
Witness—I won’t swear positively whether
I did or not.
Attorney—If you had been sure it was
your wife, would you have kissed her?
Here the witness looked round uneasily for
a. few seconds, and not seeing his wife in the
court room, answered with a grin. “Not "
This caused another general lunch, and the
witness left the stand. He was more than
astonished a moment after when his wife was
called. She swept out from the back room
and took the stand,with her black eyes snap.
ping like a terrier’n. At the sight of her.
Adams presented a pitiable appearance, and
made himself as small as possible behind
Constable Metcalf. No' man in the court
room would have changed places with him
for $1,000. ,
Mrs. Adams had been subpoenaed for the
prosecution, but: her husband labored under
the mistaken belief that she had been excus-
ed. The District Attorney must have known
that it‘ With dangerous to put her on the stand,
but he probably could not resist the tempta-
tion. She was more than anxious to testify.
“We were having a little social party at.
our house last Tuesday evening. I was sit—
ting beside my husband on the sofa, when he
asked me £0.30 across the room and intro-
duce a couple of people that weren't ac-
quainted. I went, and just then the light
went out. Soon after, Miss Clark, the girl
that came with Meeker, slid over toward my
husband-that man sneaking down behind
the Constable. Then I heard 'em kissing. I
told Meeker that it was a put up job, and he
knocked my husband down. I thought he
did just right."
Miss Lucy Clark,who lives on North Stew-
art street, testified that she was sitting near
Mr. Adams when the light went out. Every~
body was rushing to kiss the girls, and she
thought she would get up near Mr. Adams
for protection, he being a married man.
[Great merriment, in which the court un—
willingly joined]
District Attorney—Did he kiss you 7
Miss Clark (blushing)—He thought, I wal
his wife. ' i
The Court—Did you kisti him back
ing he was your husband 7’
At this sally of the Court the spectators
laughed uproar-lonely, and it: required several
minutes to restore order.
. Miss Clark 'declined to answer, and the“
Court decided that she aged not eliminate
herself.
A young lad named Armstrong, a nephew
of Adams, swore that his uncle promised him
a dollar to blow out the light when he gave
the signal. Adams scratched the top of his
headas a signal. He gave the signal just as
his wife left him.
The jury found a. verdict of not guilty.
When Adams next has occasion to scratch
his head, it is probable that he will find less
hair there than when he scratched it the last:
time.

A Case of Mistaken Identity.
If the trunk manufacturers do not quit
making so many thousands of vulises exactly
alike, somebody is going to get into some
awful trouble about it sometime, and some
trunk maker will be sued for damages enough
to build a court house. -
The other day an omnibus full of passen-
gers drove up town from the Union depot.
Sideby side at a commercial travelermamed
William Macaby, and Mrs. Winnie C. Dum-
blcton, the eminent lady temperance lecturer.
When the omnibus reached thevBaI'ret House
the commercial missionary seized the valise
and started out. The lady made a grab afbr
him and be halted. ’
“I begyour pardon," she said, “but you
have my valise."
“You are- certainly mistaken, madame.”
the traveler said,courteously but firmly, “this
is mine."
“No, air," the lady replied, firmly, “it is
mine. I would know it among a thousand.
You must not take it.”
But the traveler persisted and the lady
insisted, and they came very near quarrel-
ing. Presently one of the passengers point-
ed to a twin valise in the omnibus and asked:
“Whose is that l" »
“It isn’t'mine,” mid the traveler; it is just
like it, but this is mine.”
“And it isn’t mine," said the lady, “he has
mine, and I'll have it or I'll have the law on
him. It’s a pity if a lady can’t travel'alone
in this country without being robbed of her
propertly in broad daylight.”
