A Polite Army Clerk.

when Grant was in Chicago, three or
four years ago." said an army official, ''he
lounged about Sheridan's headquarters a
good deal His son Fred was at that time
on Sherldan's staff, but was absent one day,
and Grant took his place and looked after
his business A nervous, fidgety, irritable
old fellow came in to inquire for some paper
that he had left with Fred. When he stated
his case, Grant took the matter in SYM
pathetic way, and proceeded, after the man.
ner of an over-anxious clerk, to look the
paper up. The document could not bI

the old gentleman to the door. as walked
down the stairs with the modified visitor,

Secretary whitney,s Experiment.
[Pittsburg Post.


Secretary of the Navy Whitney is an old
New Yorker, and so familiar with the city's
characteristics. He stood in the corridor of
the Fifth Avenue hotel, in light CONVERSE
ton with Secretary of the Interior Lamar,
and the topic of conversation was a con-
fidence robbery that had been perpetrated
upon guest of the house that day Whit
new main tanned that, while some men were
astonishingly gullible, the majority were
unreasOnably cautious.
''To illustrate my point" he laid, 'let my
Young friend ice Barnard here offer to give
a $40 bill for 81. and not man in this cor
ridor will accept the offer"
The experiment was at once made. Joe
was a good-loo1ing, well dressed fellow,
with nothing in his aspect to suggest
roguery Whitney handel a crisp new
ten-dollar note to him, and he set out on his
round.
Il beg your pardon, sir" he remarked
politely to Gen. Dan. Sickles, who was
stumping round ON leg and crutch, ''but
will you please give me one dollar for this
temp and he held the note so close to Sickles'
eyes that its genuineneSs ought to have been
visible.
A half sarcastic, half angry grin came
over the generals face, but he deigned no
reply, and contemptuously turned away.
The proffer was soberly made to nine men,
none being a witness to the others refusal,
and every time with the same res ulE No
body would buy SO with 81. ALI decided
on the spur of the moment that they were
the object of a swindler's attention The
endangered note came safely back to Whit
ney, and the group laughed over the adven-
ture-save Sickles who was called in to be
teased for letting so good bargain slip.
