which men look to Mt. McGregor at the present
time is an illustration of the tie that binds the
masses Of mankind to the men who lead. l find
men everywhere willing listeners to any story Of
General Grant. One that heard yesterday re-
calls an old army Renaissance. Two of the
younger members of the Grant family were play
ing ball on the lawn at Long Branch, last sum-
mer, while the General sat on the porch, smok-
ing his cigar and watching them. The youngsters
disagreed and had rough and tumble contest
for possession Of the ball Out of it. the victor
flushed and excited, came up to where the Cen
sat and said: He took my ball" We'll

again" The General smiled at his triumphant
descendant, and turning to friend who sat bv
him, said laughingly: ''Schwartzs battery is
took" The story to which he alluded is one of
the oldest of the jokes told at camp-fires and
soldier reunions. 1t is reported incident of
Shiloh. During the battle an officer rode
furously up to General Grant, touched his cap
and said with German accent: ''Sheneral,
wants to make Won report; Schwartz's battery is
took" "Ah! that's bad, said Grant, 'how did
it happen" Why, Sheneral, de sheshenists

cavern occurred at 10 o'clock this morning at

do. The men and mules, together with all the
