His relations with his family were most de-
lightful and charming. There never was
saw more devoted couple than Gen.
and Mrs. Grant. Of course everybody knows
how he loved his daughter. The meeting
between them the other day was very touch
ing, and the emotion shown by the old war
rior exhibited the depth of his affection.
Gen. Grants great characteristic, however,
was his sublime and unHinching courage.
1t was of that kind that no impression
could be made upon it by opposition. He
discharged his duties always without selfish
ness, never stopping to consider how an
action would affect him personally. I 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. twas war, but realized
what it meant. never gave such orders
until l was satisfied it was the best
course to pursue and then i was willing to
SHOULDER THE RESPONSIBILITY
He added, many men failed as commanders
simply because of their unwillingness to as
sumo this responsibility. He spoke of two
men who were fearless in this respect, Sher-
man and Sheridan. The latter in particular,
he thought, was possessed with ample cour-
age to do what seemed best and be re-
sponsible
FOR THE OUTCOME.
1t was not rashness and heedlessness, but
fearlessness in assuming responsibility for
results.n

THAT DUBLIN CIVIC FLAG.

DUBLIN, April 4 Lord Mayor Jno.O Con
ner of Dublin is in rather dilema about the
civic flag of that city, which he announced
in speech should not be thrown to the
breeze from the Mansion house on the
occasion of the visit of the Prince
of Wales, which threat at the in
stance of friends he afterwards retracted,
and after which the flag was stolen. Three
theories for the theft have been advanced,
that the people did it to prevent league
mayor from paying homage to a British
prince, by the loyalists to make sure the flag
would be displayed on the accession
of the royal visit, and that the
mayor stole it himself to escape
from his embarrassment and conciliate both
loyalists and leaguers. AS the prince will
arrive in Dublin on Wednesday, and the
whereabouts of the flag are in doubt and no
efforts have been made to replace it, Mayor
OConnor comes out with proclamat as
serting his innocence of its disappearance,
and announces that If the original
flag is Haunted on Wednesday next during
the presence of the prince and princess in
the Irish capital it will be seized, and If
necessary by an armed force; and that the
persons found in possession of the emblem
will be arrested and prosecuted
THE REPLY OF RUSSIA.
LONDON, April 4.-The Pail Mall Gazette
this afternoon states that the reply of Russia
to England's proposals concerning the AT
CHAN frontier line is most conciliatory The
Russians earnestly wish the joint com mission
would commence the work of settling the
frontier line as soon as possible. They ac-
cept the principle Of definition of zone
of survey, but instead Of set
ting the southern boundary Of this
zone at what they considered the
northern frontier Of Afghanistan, which is
an imaginary line drawn across desolate
steppe, they propose that the line of the
zone Of survey be carried up to only the
natural line of demarcation existing, namely,
the Borkus spur Of the Parecpamions. The
difference between the English and Russian
proposals is that the zone proposed by Russia
would include triangular piece of steppe
twenty-five TO fifty miles wide, which would
be excluded from the zone Of survey, within
which the English propose to confne the
work of the boundary commission.

Barrios Inspired by France.

Barrios Inspired by France.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, April 4 There are pretty
good reasons to believe that the rumors
which were afloat some time ago, that the
attempt of President Bairios of Guatemala
to force the Central American republics into
general confederation were prompted by
France, are true. It has been pretty
evident some time that France
was anxious to break off in
some way the negotiations between
this country and Nicaragua regarding the
proposed ship canal. Of course if the scheme
of Barrios for union of the various repub-
lies should be carried out, and Nicaragua
forced into the combination before the treaty
now pending was confirmed, it would not
be recognized by the new republic. Besides
this, Barrios specifically stated in his procla-
nation that the contracts made by
the states after its issue would not
be recognized by the republic. The
idea in this is evidently to put up bar which
will prevent recognition of the treaty, even
if the senate of the United States should
confirm it. Besides, there seems to be
disposition to draw the United States itself
into the quarrel. What will be the course of
the government in the matter is pretty hard
to say. 1t has not yet been determined
upon.

His Gold-Hilted Sword Found.

Liberia, VIA GALVESTON, April A.
Hostilities between Guatemala and the
Allied Republics have been suspended and
an armistice of one months duration is an
nounced. The legislative assembly of Guate-
mala has annulled the decree promul-
gated by President Barrios on Feb. 90,
in which union of the Central American
republics was proclaimed, and Barrios was
announced as dictator and supreme military
chieftain of all Central America. The gold
hilted sword of President Barrios was found
on the battlefield of Chalchualpa broken. Ac-
corling to the latest intelligence received
here President Barrios is dead. No particu-
lars have been received.

Don't Believe Barrios isDead.

WASHINGTON, April 4.-The Post to-mor-
row will print an interview with Senor A.
Bartres, the Guatemalan minister, in which
he says he does not believe the report of the
death of Barrios, and of the victorious Saliva
dorian troop. He said there was but
one cable to Central America, and
that is in the hands of the enemies
of Barrios and his cause, and they
were manipulating the wire to suit their own
interests. He said further that Barrios has
about 25, 600 men with him and could easily
get as many more, as the people of the Cen
trail American states were in hearty accord
with his efforts to secure union. Barrios,
said Bartres, does not want to be president
of the union and would not accept the office
if elected to it. His efforts were directed
entirely to affecting union of the states.

To be Kept in Readiness.

WASHINGTON, April 4.-United States Con-
sui General Adamson at Panama, in answer
to the inquiry, to-day telegraphed Secretary
Whiting that the force of marines sent YES
terday from New York will be sufficient to
protect the American interests in Pan
anna. The secretary will not, therefore,
order an additional force to Aspinwall Mon
day. The marines summoned at the Brook
lyn navy yard will, however, be kept there
several days to be in readiness to be sent to
Panama should it become necessary.
Secretary Whitney will next week appoint

to test the Dolphin in another trial trip.

THE SKATING RINK WORLD


THE SKATING RINK WORLD
as seen through the eyes of an instructor, is
made up of pretty girls, hard-hearted man
ayers, professional skaters and the "Smart
Alexis" who attend the girls to the
rink. Some of these handsome
fgureheads of the skating floor consider it a
personal affront when good-looking fellow
accompanies his girl to the rink. And if the
young man should by any inadvertence ad-
dress the gentlemanly instructor as Hi
there!r his sense of the injury is madden
ing. He either does not hear the remark or
else retorts with dignifed contempt. But as
a rule he is handsome and stalwart, and
those who think he does not earn his money
are mistaken. He works on an average of
eight and half hours day. His task is by
no means confined to plotting pretty girls
about the room, but also includes the drag
ging of clumsy heavy-weights miles at
time, the supporting of weak-ankled spinsters,
the verbal instructions repeated over and
over again to timid chaps who persist in sit
ting down, and all the same expect to be
taught to skate, and the rescue of women
and children from imminent collision. He
does not draw princely salary, either, his
wages not exceeding those paid the average
clerk. If he should be so unfortunate as to
have been born a dude, his trials are too many
to recapitulate.
Another prominent figure in the rink is
THE PROFESSIONAL SKATER,
who puts in his time inventing and practic-
ing original and bewildering acts.
From his lists may be culled
the following specialties which are
but small fraction of the varieties of the art
known to the professional "Outside edge;
