Grants Lo:,st.tion.

NEW York, March 15-Gen Grant sat il
his library writing letters. Occasionally he
replies to some one of the myriad of letters
which come to him, asking for his autograph.
This he does if the request comes from q
friend or one of his old soldiers. He had
considerable appetite and asked for food
several times and surprised his family by
eating chop. This is the first solid food he
has taken in many days. He had some little
pain in swallowing. His sleep was disturbed
by slight catarrh, caused by a cold which he
had caught Toward morning he slept bet
ter. At noon his pulse and temperature
were about normal. His voice is strong.
DR.. ]. h. Douglas dressed the throat with
iodoform and chloroform and left the general
very comfortable.
Mr.. Wallace Brown, the cancer man, re-
turned to North Adams without making any
further attempt to see Gen. Grant
DR.. Douglas was asked: ''What remedies
do these specialists user
They generally use caustc, which
causes the tissue to slough away" he said
"That might do with tumor, as the tissue
could heal up afterward, but it would not do

people are interested in knowing
where the money goes, and if ex-

public. when they see the pub'ica-

Death Of Judge Wilson,
of Lebanon.

1t is with deep sorrow that W
learn of the death, on Sunday O
last week, of Judge Wilson, o
Lebanon, brother of Americu
Wilson of our place, in the 5fti
year of his age. Judge Wilson
was 'one of the most prominen
public men of Ohio. He was ;
gallant soldier, a just judge, a,
able lawyer, an intelligent lesis
lator. He was a man whose in
tegrity and decency gave Linn ;
personal character above re-
proach, and whose fidelity Il
principle and affection to friend.
never faltered.
1t was our good fortune to lirsi
meet him as a member of the
Legislature in 1870. We were his
next seat neighbor. He was an
ardent Republican. but his liber-
al mind and his manly heart
were not controlled by narrow
partizan prejudices. He was re-
cognized as one of he ablest men
of that bod, and won to himself
foI his manliness, the friendship
of every member of that Assem-
bly,. He was TO US in many mat
ters relating to pending legisla-
tion, non political, and relating
to the public service, not only
the accommodating neighbor, the
genial associate, but the advising
older brother, patiently and in
diligently counseling and advis
ing us and those who, getting
to know him. were SO very ready
to lean on him and learn from
him.
Judge Wilson was our friend,
tte friend and adviser of every
man in the legislature deserving
Of his friendship or asking his in
teiligent advice.
His death, in the prime of ac-
tive professional life, will carr.
deep sorrow into every county
in Ohio where there may be liv-
ing a man who was his associate
in that Legislature. where he was
recognized as leader in politics
and loved as a brother in the So
ciety.
His death is loss to the State
and to his profession. and a. be-
reavement to as many warm per-
sonal friends as that Of any man
who has lived in Ohio.
All honor to his memory
grateful recollections to his
friendships-peace 10 his ashes.
An invalid wife and four brot h.
ers survive him, TO whom we
tender our sympathy along with J
this wayside flower, born of our
with him, which
we offer in affectionate .recol lee
ton 10 his cherished memory.
