 gifts that had been presented to him-but he was denied that satisfaction, and when he wrote to Washington signifying his purpose, a reply came back that the gift had already been promised by Mir. Vanderbilt, who claimed to own them. The General was too much dis pirited to contest the claim. He thought ho had assigned to Mir. Vanderbilt enough prop erty to. make good that unfortunate loan of $150, ,000, but he was in no position to resist MT. Vanderbilt's opinion to the contrary, and go the cherished plan of giving to the Govern ment his treasures was dispelled, and MT. Van- derbilt became the actual donor. It was 8 hard struggle for the General and the family and when they were gone, the bare walls and vacant places at his house in Sixty sixth-street were constant reminders to all the family oi their misfortunes.
 The house was gift to the General At the time of its purchase there was g mortgage uponit of $40000. As the mortgage could not then be released the amount of it wal handed to Mrs. Grant, who deposited it with Grant & Ward, intending to withdraw it when the mortgage became due. It was swallowed up in the crash. The needs of the family in- creased the trust, which amounts now, with interest, to about $52, 900. The price paid for the house was $100,000. Gen. Grants ex- ample led his relatives to invest their posses sions with Grant & Ward, and when disaster came it swept away not only all he had and Mrs Grants investment, but the possessions of his three sons and the saving of four other families connected by blood with himself or
 Mrs. Grant. He felt responsibility for tho support and welfare of all these dependencies | resting upon him after the failure, and for all | of them he sought to make provision from what the book might yield. His income for
 more than 8 year, as had been the case, indeed | in years gone by, was consumed as fast as i come in in providing for others.
 The publishers estimate the Generals sharc
 of the proceeds of the book at $75,000 Int General assigned all his right, title, and in | terest in this money to Mrs. Grant, in whost
 name the contract stands. No qualification it
 attached to this gift, and she may use tht
 money as may suit herself. As she know | what the General has done and what he would have continued to do, she will doubtless follow out his plan of benefaction, so that none O \ the family or relatives will want because O l losses sustained in follow his example. 1t i I her present attention to retire somewhere tQ {

A WilliOnaire,s Dinner.

81 am very fond of baked potatoes"
Jay Gould has recently said. They are
as simple an article as one can get, and
find the simple food best agrees with my
headwork. At home do not care for
fancy dishes. Good bread and butter,
pure milk OF the best quality, then vege.
tables and meat, fresh and plainly cook
ed, ard you have all that ought to be
desired by any man. Porridge and grits
for breakfast am very fond of, and |
find that man can 90 great deal of
work op breakfast made up of piece
Of steak, tender and rare. mealy baked
potato, some Graham bread and glass
of milk. A man with a large business
on his hands and on his brain cannot
hope to be successful unless he lives on
the simplest food. The rule when there
is to be physical strain is to diet on the
articles which are the most readily as
simulated. 1t is Just the same when the
work is mental. Complex dishes may
tickle the palate but they muddle the
brain"
MIR. Gould lives up to his doctrine. At
public dinners it is his habit to avoid
most of the articles placed before him.
A small plate of consomme soup. and
then later on in the dinner, if it is set
before him, a little roast meat or game
and some plain potatoes, and the inner
man is quite well satisfied. He is ex-
ceedingly wary of vegetables, which are
los to sight under load of sauces. A
sip of claret, no champagne, and The wine
list is exhausted so far as GIr. Gould is
concerned. AT the very earliest moment
he slips away from the table and goes
home. He prefers dinner parties at

from thesa presses. Notwithstanding
the rumOrs and counter rumOrs, there is
no installing the fact that the new Bible
will not have more than One-elghth OF
the sale of the revised New Testament
two years ago. As a positive proof OF
this, q religious publication house having
its main office in Philadelphia has given
an order for Just one sixteenth OF the
number of copies ordered OF the New
Testament; aud this number was consid-
cred as fully discOunting the risk of not
being able to secure additional copies a
week or two after the day of publication,
if needed. The LippincOtt people assert
that within a week the edition sent from
England will be completely exhausted
and not copy can be had at any price,
unless the reprints Of American publish
ers can be gotten out in time. OF the
latter there are prospects at present OF

time Snowman. In New York Zoyara'
daring riding aroused great enthusiasm
She did things on horseback that no
woman had ever yet attempted, and, as
she was very bretty and of splendid
ply sique, she soon had hundreds of adj
mirers. She began tour of the country
but had not gone far before she met
with an accident. 1t was trivial in
nature, but most alarming in its results,
for in half an hour the whole show knew
that Ella Zoyara, the beautiful woman
rider, was-a man 1t was afterwards
found out that her proper name was
Omar Kingsley, an American lad.
Kingsley afterward married Sallie
Stickney, the rider, and died in India.
All the great riders served apprentice
ship in their younger days. Jim Rob-
insOn, who was famous in 1850 as a
bare back rider, served under bis broth
er, John Robinson; Bob Stickney, who
was favorite in 1857, was taught by
his father, Sam Stlckney; Billy Morgan,
who was with the European Circus as
late as 1878, and who astonished people
by his daring hurdle jumping, VS.
another of tine old-time apprentice
boys. He was murdered by robbers
last winter in Texas. Charles w. Fish,
one of the finest of modern riders, was
