Tine stock of Ex-Presidents.

The country has never had a very large stock of ex-Presidents living at any one time. The death of General Grant leaves but two men outside the present adminis- tration who have filled the Presi- dential chair, and the largest num- Der was in Lincoln's time, when Buchanan, Pierce, Fillmore, Tyler and Van Buren made the number of ex-Presidents up to five There were four survivors when John Quincy Adams took his seat, and the same number when Polk came into office, but in each case the number was reduced to two before the end of a four yeaY's term.
 When General Grant himself became President his surviving predecessors were Johnson, Fierce and Fillmore, but before the end of his eight years in office they were all dead, so that he was the sole living ex-President when Rutherford B. Hayes succeeded him in 1877. The widows of four ex-Presidents are now livings and have been pensioned by actof Congress, each receiving $5,000 and ii IS of course probable that the same courtesy will be extend4 ed to Mrs. Grant.-Wa aterbury American.

When StOnewall Jackson Did Not Rebuke.
 EThe Century.l

When Stonewall Jackson Did Not
 Rebuke.
 1.-The Century.]
 l never knew him to let profani- ty pass without rebuke but once. The incident was reported to me by the chief actor in it, Maj. John A. Harman, who was Jackson's chief quartermaster, and man of extraordinary qualifications. It happened at Edwards Ferry, on the Potomac, when our army was crossing into Maryland in the An- tietam campaign. Maj. Gen. D. H. Hills Division was crossing, when Jackson rode up and found the ford completely blocked with Hills wagon-train. He spoke to Hill (who was his brother-in-law, they having married sisters for allowing such confusion. General Hill replied that he was not a quartermaster, or something that implied it was no part of his busi- ness to get tangled wagons out of the river.
 Jackson instantly put Hill in arrest, and turning to Maj. Har- man ordered him to clear the ford. Harman dashed in among the wagoners, kicking mules, and ap- parently inextricable mass of wagons, and, in the voice of a stentor, poured out a volume of oaths that would have excited the admiration of the most scientific mule-driver. The effect was elec- trical. The drivers were frighten- ed and swore as best they could but far below the Majors stan dard. The mules caught the in- spiration from a chorus of famil jar words, and all at once made a break for the Maryland shore, and in five minutes the ford was clear ed. Jackson witnessed and heard 1t all. Harman rode back to him, expecting lecture, and, touching his hat, said: "The ford is clear, General! There is only one lan- guage that will make mules under stand on a hot day, that they must get out of the water" The Gen. eral, smiling, said: 'Thank you, Major," and dashed into the water at the head of hIs staff.

Take this Marine Band, for instance. 1t
IS composed of some forty Of the best mu-
sicians to he found in this part Of the
country It's leader, Mr.. J. p. SOusa, has
not his equal this side of New York, ana
not more than one or two there can be
said to surpass him. Indeed, it is gene
rally believed by those who make a study
of this subject, that only one military
band Of the country (Gilmore's) can COM
pare with it. GilmOre's is, OF course,
much larger band, as is the case with
many OF the other bands of the country.
But 1t is not on the size Of his land
that MIR. eousa prides himself. His
band is small one, only IS pieces, but
its work is not eXceled Ia its approach to
perfection by any. Mr.. Sousa has been
the leader OF the Marine Band for some
five years. Under his leadership the band
has attended greater reputation than it
ever before enjoyed. He is a thorough
student of music, having made il life
long study. Besides the leadership and
general direction OF the Marine Band he
finds time to do a great deal of musical
composition. He has written four
OPERAS, 'ileauee,' - smugglers,'

Tor children. lie is now engaged on his
most ambitious work, an Orat0rIo to be
called 1.-The Disciples and TO be found on
the instructions Of Christ to his disciples
and their subsequent experiences as de-
tailed in the Scriptures. He has also pro-
duced large number of musical compO-
sitions for the use of the Marine Band and
for instrumental use, the number thus
produced and published by him reaching
more than one hundred. Mr.. SOusa, be-
sides being thorough student OF music,
had the advantage in earlier years of
paternal advice in this parti 3ular line of
work, his father having been for many
years member Of the Marine Band.
The custom OF giving these open-air con-
certs at the White House and capitol,
which has just now been resumed for the
season, is a very old one. Nobody knows
Just when 1t was begun, but members Of
the marine corps who have been here for
more than quarter of a century say the
custom is older than their stay IN Wash
lngtOn. The band il, as is we'll under
stood, a part of the marine corps. Ii was
organized about 1907, and has been for
many years one Of the finest bands in the
country, having, however, never attained
10 such a state of excellence as under the
present management. Its members are
of all nati0nalities, about One-third being
Americans. The director, Mr.. SOusa, is
a native OF this city, but Of Spanish de-
scent. He is IA handsome man, with full
| et-black heard, keen black eyes and "a
military figure, and IS extremely popular
in Washington. The members Of the band
wear a brilliant and very handsome uni.
form scarlet coat, dark pants and military
hat. The faces OF the members of the
band are very familiar in Washington.
as, besides playing as a band at many
public events, its members are permitted
| TO nil positions in the orchestras at the
theatres Of the city, for which service they
are eagerly sought, some Of the members
/ being considered the finest in their par
/ ticular line that the country affords.
