Eric Wangen, who keeps saloon on G

on Monday. As he was entering the door
of the City hotel, between II and ID at
night, he was struck violent blow over
the head, which knocked him insensible.
The rObber then took what money Wangen
had in his pants pocket amounting to about
S14, but did not take his pocketbook, which
was in an inside vest pocket. He lay upon
the threshold of the door until found in the
morning by man from the railroad shops.
No trace of the assailant can be found,
but it is presumed he was one of the hang
ers-on of Miles Orton's circus, which ex-
hibited here on Monday. Mr.. j. Myers,

Grant in England.

Pittsburg Times.
j. D. Pringle an Englishman who was in the
north Of England during General Grants visit
there, expressed himself as follows yesterday
ut is q difficult question to solve which of the
two names, Abraham Lincoln or Ulysses S.
Grant, is the most popular among the English
people. Certainly the names of both are in
delibly stamped on the minds of tho masses in
my native land; but shall never forget the re-
ception rendered General Grant when he visited
Newcastle on Tyne in the north of England.
Men, women and children, numbering almost
100, 600, thronged the common and streets of that
city to cheer the presence of that great American.
Thousands Of sturdy pitmen, with their bands
and banners, marched many miles to take parti in
the proceedings. Grants nationality seemed
entirely to be forgotten, no Englishman, no
matter how great and good, could have had a
more imposing reception. His humanity, his
deeds of bravery, honesty and generosity had
preceded the American soldier and statesman
to England.
There was an immense mass meeting on the
city common and although there were several
Platforms more than half of the vast crowd
failed to hear word from any speaker I shall
never forget the scene when General Grant
stood up in the center platform. The lusty
cheers of 80, 600 voices rent the air, and might
have been heard miles away The General
seemed surprised at the demonstration. He
only said a few words, heard only by reporters,
and resumed his seat broken down by the kind
ness shown to him. The name Of General Grant
will live in the minds of the English people as
long as that of their own Wellington

affection. General Grants great characteristic,
however, was his sublime and unfiinching
courage. 1t was of that kind that no impress
sion could be made upon it by opposition. He
discharged his duties always without selfishness;
never stopping to consider how an action would
affect him personally. / asked Grant once,
If, when giving orders for an engagement
he was not appalled, by the great loss of life
which would ensue. He replied: No; it was
war; but 1 realized what it meant. 1 never
gave such orders until was satisfied it was the
best course to pursue, and then was willing to
shoulder the responsibility He added that
many men failed as commanders simply because
of unwillingness to assume this responsibility.
He spoke of two men who were tear
less in this respect, Sherman and Sheridan;
the latter, in particular, he thought, was pos
sessed of ample courage to do what seemed best,
and be responsible for the outcome. 1t was not
rashness or heedles3ness, but fearlessness in as
Stunning responsibility for results.
Mr.. Creswell spoke enthusiastically of General
Grant as writer and talker.

tinued Mr.. Creswell. HE did not desire to be

North and South. and think he would have done
it thoroughly. The solid South would have
been a thing of the past"

New YORK, April A commission de luna

Stephen Fl. Tying, of Irvington. The petition
was made by Alexander G. Tying. of Peoria, ILL.,,
the oldest sen of DIR. Tying, and sets forth that
DR.. Tying is of unsound mind and so far de-
prived of reason and to render him
altogether incompetent to manage himself or his
affairs; that his language, conversation and
actions since 1883, have been those of person
of unsound mind; that he could not recognize
friends, and often mistook one for another,
and, in some cases, for those long
since dead. The estate of Dr. Tying is
stated to be house and lot in
Irvington, worth $4,000, and an annuity
of $1,000 as pastor emeritus of st. Georges

The Feeling in Washington.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, April although the bulletins
from New York showed an improvement in the
condition of General Grant and indicated that
he may live several days yet. much has been
said to-day about the reception and disposition
of his remains, when life finally does lee Those
having the matter in charge say his resting
place will be either at Arlington, two miles
southwest of the White House. or at
the National Soldiers Home, an equal
distance north. Both sites overlook the
city, and are naturally beautiful
beyond description. Either of these spots, it is
believed, will be more proper place than Presi-
Dental Park, which is within the White House
grounds The fact that General Grants remains
may rest here is the only thing that in the least
assuages the grief of the people. The greatest
concern is felt over his condition, and crowds
constantly linger about the points where bulle-
tins are displayed. The local press teens with
interviews with men of all political parties who
knew the old soldier and statesman in all walks
of life, every word of which lauds his memory
and evinces profound grief that his career is so
nearly at an end.

At one point they were all but routed An Of

'Have you any prisoners"
"Prisonersl Why, we were routed, General"
''But you must have picked up a few-some
stragglers," persisted Grant.
"Oh yes; of course, we have few"
''Bring one of them here" was the terse re-
sponse
The prisoner was brought. General Grant
asked for his haversack, opened it, and handed
it to the officer who had brought him word of
the attack.
II thought so. Three days rations These
people don't want to fight They are trying to

Commander.


Commander.
Pittsbura Commercial-Gazette.
For the pomp and trappings of war he cared
nothing. Grant has been honored at home and
abroad more than any other American in his
lifetime-one might almost say more than any
other living man ever was-yet through it all he
remained personally the simplest and most un-
pretentious of men. During the war, even when
COMMANDMENTS Chief, he went about wearing an
old SLOUGH hat and common soldiers blue over
coat a.worn and dingy one at that. When ad-
vancing on the rear of Vicksburg he gave orders
to his army to ''move light" His personal ex-
ample gave emphasis to his order. The only
baggage" he took with him was a briar-root
pipe tooth brush and a horn pocket-comb
AT City Point, his headquarters the last win
ter of the war, the General lived in two roomed
log hut, in the greatest possible simplicity.
Nine-tenths of the captains in his army lived
more luxuriously. His food was that of the
common mess of the officers. A huge fire was
built outdoors in front of the hut, and before
this, wrapped in his old overcoat, with two or
three of his staff about him, the General liked
best of all to sit. Toward the last unknown to
himself, these devoted friends watched him
night and day. Plots against his life had been
formed-an attempt to blow up his headquarters
with torpedo had almost succeeded. In the
unal Gays the denerdl became SleepleSS, ana

quently one greater than all-Lincoln, the
martyr President-he whose great, gentle heart
bore charity for ALL with malice toward none.
They spent weeks together at the headquarters
during that fearful year. Between him and
Grant there was full understanding and warm
feeling. Grant said that in the course of this
familiar acquaintance he had come to regard
Lincoln as by far the greatest man who had occu-
pied the presidential chair since Washington.
Lincoln liked to unburden his anxious soul to
the General he had chosen. In that troubled
time he was urged to remove Grant and appoint
somebody who had dash and would hasten mat
ters. In quaint phrase, Lincoln answered only:
Its bad plan to swap horses in the middle
of river
The plainness of dress of both these historic
Americans harmonized. In February, 1865,
Grant went to see Lincoln at Washington.

following letter was read from Rev. DR.. j. p.
Newman:
Ny Dear Mr.. Roach: ] trust that your confer
ence win offer special prayer for the General as he is
more interested in the prayers offered for him than in
the resolutions of admiration which adopted, al
though he fully appreciates the spirit which inspires
the latter. He is patiently and calmly awaiting the
coming of the final hour. He said to last night:
II shall be through with the things of this life.
On another occasion he said: II have some faith but
/ wish had the faith of Mrs. Newman and of my
sister. Mrs. Cramer." On Sunday night Mrs. Grant
asked him Shall ask Dr. Newman to have pray
ers nowi' He replied 1T will ask him myself when
he comes in" Then followed another precious season
of prayer. Yours very truly. J. p. NEWMAN.
