Gea. Grants Missouri Farm i.

One of the possessions of the
Grant family, which will now
probably go to pay their debts, is
their old Dent farm near st. Louis.
1t is about ten miles from the city
perhaps fifteen, on the Caronelet
branch Of the Missoari Pacific
railroad. It was left to Mrs. Grant
by her father, and is nuw held
probablp ia her individual name.
1t was there where Mrs. Grant
was raised, and il was from there
that Gen. Grant used to haul
wood to st. Louis. The place
now looks we'll worn and some
what delapidated, though it has
an immense barn, built some
years ago when Gen. Grant pur-
chased a number OF fine hors IS
and left them there. It was his
intention at one time to turn the
old Grant homestead into an ex-
tensive stock farm, but he soon
got tired of the experiment and
made a sale whereat he let go all
hrs fine horses.
I was there last spring and the
once splendid farm was only a
remainder of what it had been.
The only family residence where
Gen. and Mrs. Grant had lived
for a number of years was almost
ready to tumble down from age
and neglect, and all that was left
to remind one of Gen. Grants
abortive venture in stock raising
were the magnificent but empty
barn, and a vagrant broken-dowu
mule that minced the grass lonely
enough in siovenly-lookin
pasture. Mrs. Grant has always
retained a warm affection for hel
family homestead, and when she
and the General were in st. Louis
the last time they hired Mr.. Jesse
Arnot's hest pair Of horses anG
drove out to spend the day there

Keep Ahead.

One of the grand secrets of sue
cess in life is to keep ahead in all
ways possible. If you once fall
behind, you may find it very diff
cult to make up the headway
which is lost. One who begins
with putting aside some part of
his earnings, however small, and
keeps it up for a number of years.
is likely to become rich before he
dies. One who inherts property.
and goes ON year by year SPEND
ing little more than his income,
will become poor if he lives long
enough. Living beyond their
means has brought multitudes of
persons to ruin in Onr generation.
It is the cause of nine-tenths of
all defalcatiOns which disgrace
the age. Bankers and business
men In general do not often help
themselves to other peoples
money until their own funds be-
gin to fall off, and their expendi-
lures exceed their receipts. A
man NhO is in debt walks in the
midst of perils. 1t cannot but
impair a mau's self-respect to
know that he is living at the eX-
pense of others. It is also desir-
able that he should keep some
what ahead in our own work.
This may not be possible in all
Cases, as for instance, when
mans work Is assigned to certain
fixed hours, like that of the Oper-
atives in mill. But there are
certain classes of people who can
choose their time for the work
which hey are called TO do, and
them there are some

work. Gel ahead aud keep ah cad
and your success is tolerably sure.

Pueblo Beauties Of New Mexico.

A white man is an alien for
ever at Santo Domingo. He can
visit the pueblo if he pleases,and
may even occupy one of the
houses, but other than the merest
social intercourse with the peo-
pie, he can expect nothing. l do
not know of but one Mexican who
has gone to live at the village, and
he looks enough like the men
around him to pass as one of the
people. Noticing the beauty,
what there is, of these fat, rouDd-
ed people, one naturally. if he is
a man, turns his eyes first to the
women, and once turned upon
them, the men Of the tribe might
he as ugly as sin and as fierce as
his satanic majesty, but he would
gaze until the object looked ut
moved away.
Why? Simply because q girl
of Santo Domingo, II real first
class, able bodied, nice girl is as
pretty as picture. Brown as
Berry; eyes dark and languid;
hands and feet small; ankle we'll
and liberally displayed,
shoulder round and peeking out
of the calico waist the ends just
now below the arm; pearly teeth,
black hair, pretty laugh, saucy,
fiirty, and yet demure. Where
is the man who would not fall in
love for half an hour, Vr until that
time ut least when he noticed tha.
his adored one wore no shoes;
that her dress was soiled, that
she u ldn't writes that she had
to- work; that she Was an Ibdian
,GIaW? All, we'll POcahOnIa5 isn't

IN Aking of her few imperfectfons
noted above-See how grscefslly
shg carries her eaTlloa "a sT-.tr
Iull of water on her head; see how
strong she is, how easily she car

US steop. She is modern Rebec-
ca at the well ,and like her model
she lives in hot couutry, and
she wears few clothes, and she
loves to linger end to- gossip

How Whisky Saved Washington

The story has often been told,
but I do not know that it was
ever verified. Montgomery Blair
told it to me- himselfa year or
two before he died, We of Wash
ington can never forget the
threatening days in July, 1864
when the city was defenseless,
and q large force of rebels, under
Early and Breckenridge was not
ten miles distant from the capital.
No one denies now that the rebles
could have marched in and taken
Washington almost unimpeded.
The Sixth corps OF the Army of
the Potomac was en- route to de-
fend the city, but it was not
quick enough.
The enemy was halted at Silver
Springs, the country residence of
the elder Blair aud very near tn e
residence of Montgomery Blair
Upon the approach of the Army
the families of both fedto Wash
ington. The rebel officers search
ed the house and found in the
cellar of Frank P. Blair's honSe
a barrel of whisky, This did the
