GEN. GRANT UNDER GUARD.
q star Omcer Tells of the Time When
the General Was Late for Breakfast.
New York Tribune

=
the General Was Late for Breakfast.
New York Tribune.l
A retired army officer who was on
Gen. Grants personal staff during the
war, speaking the other day of Gen.
Badeau's article in The Century, said:
''Badeau has made one mistake. He
says Gen. Grant was in danger of assas-
sination during the last year of the
war, while his headquarters were at City
Point, and that his personal staff formed
a plan to protect him, one of them sitting
up every night as special guard. Now,
there wasn't enc of his staff who
wouldn't have guarded Gen. Grant at
the risk of his own life if necessary.
But there was no danger at City
Point. Nobody thought of it there. There
never was but one time and place when
we did think the presence of our troops
was not a sufficient protection, or that
he could add to his safety by making
ourselves his personal guard. That was
at Culpepper, before going to the Wilder
ness. The rooms of the house we occupied
were so situated that Gen. Grants room
was somewhat isolated, and we thought
that in spite of the guard outside it was
possible for an enemy to get to his room
unobserved We took in the situation
and decided to place sentry before Gen.
Grants door at night, after he had re-
tired. This was done without saying
anything to the general, who himself
had no fears, and had thought nothing
about it.
"But he got even with us for keeping
him out of the secret The first mora
ing after the sentry had paced Lack and
forth all night before his door, the gen.
\ 4 4 % life
1t was unusual for him to be late at
breakfast, and after some time I said to
Rawlings: What in the mischief is
keeping the "old man" in bed so later
After waiting some time longer we all
got rather fidgety, and / think it was
Rawlings who finally said he'd go to the
generals room and see what was the
matter Well, Rawlings went up, and
found Gen. Grant all dressed and sitting
quietly in his room.
'Why, general, breakfast has been
ready some time, said Rawlings.
We'll, replied Gen. Grant, with per-
feet seriousness, "a sentry has been
guarding my door all night, and ! sup
posed l was under arrest Now, what
have done to be placed under arrest in
this wayp
''Of course, Gen. Rawlings appre-
ciated the joke, and when they came
down together they pretended to be as
serious as the general, who, with dry
humor, said: Gentlemen, am sorry to
have kept you waiting, but sentry has
been pacing before my door all night,
and as 1 thought was under arrest
couldn't come down till released For
an instant there was queer, puzzled
look on every face, and then we all burst
out laughing. He didn't share our
fears, but let US have our way. Every
night while at Culpepper an armed
sentry paced before Gen. Grants door,
guarding him while he slept"

A Crucial Question.

It sometimes happens that a preacher
Is outdone even in his own field; for in
London one advertises that he would
preach next Sunday against the divine
ness of Mary. AT one point the evan
gelist waxed hot and said: 90 defy any
of you Irishmen to tell how the mother
of Christ was different at all from my
mother" In the pause that followed
this crucial question a good-hu-
mored Pat arose and said: 81 do not
know, indade, what's the difference be-
tween your mother and Christ'S mother
but sure an there's big difference be-
tween the sons" The audience coul1
not recover and the sermon came to an
abrlpt end.

The Cost of Funerals.

It is claimed by writer that one and
one-fourth more money is expend an
nually on funerals in the United States
than is expended for p~blie school pur-
poses. and more than the combined gold
and silver yield of the country in the
year 1880. This does not include the
cost of cemetery lots and burial fees.
While it is quite natural to reverence the
dead, it is certainly unnecessary to make
extravagant expenditures in their behalf.
Many poor families cripple themselves
for months in order to make last show
Of respect for the departed.

THE SITUATION ELsEwHERE.
Michigan Car Shops, Men Ready to
Return.

DETROIT, May 10.-This morning a
crowd of strikers gathered about the Mich
igan car shops. When some workmen at
tempted to go to work the crowd drove
them away with bricks and Jumps of dirt.
The police were on hand in force and with
their protection twenty-five men resumed
work. Trouble is anticipated when the
men quit tonight, but as yet there has been
no serious disturbance, the strikers being
kept outside the shops. Eighty men were
ready to work at the Peninsular car shops
this morning, but the company was I'M
able to proceed with so few men. The
entire force at Murphy's chair factory re-
Sumed this morning. A score of extra
police have been sworn in.
SECURED THE ADVANCE.
PITTsBURG, May 10.-The ], 500 GOLFERS
employed in the pits along the Youghio-
gheny river, and aIsosat the m ines of Hon.
W. l.. Scott at Scotthaven, Pa. resumed
work this morning at the advance in wages
demanded. The men struck about two
months ago and have been idle since.
QUIET AT CINCINNATI.
CINCINNATI. o., May 10.-The situation
here is decidedly more hopeful to-day.
Under the shadow of the strong military
force at the fair grounds and assured by
the mayors proclamation that all who de-
sired to go to work to-day should have
ample protection, much of the wild fear
that has led many doubtful workmen to 90
with their fellows isgone. When new men
have been hired they are not molested, and
on every hand the indications are that the
Strike is growing less formidable. Nobody
now anticipates any collision or violence
and the nope is that within a few days all
trouble will be amicabIy settled.

NEW YORK, May 1O.-"One of the ple.a
ant incidents in the girlhood of Miss
frankie Folsom, President Cleyelands
Drlde-elect," said a Buffalo gentleman at
the Fifth Avenue hotel to-day, occurred
IN 1879, when she was one of two contest
ants in contest for personal beauty and
popularity in an authors carnival, held in
the Pearl street rink in Buffalo
1or the benefit of the homeopathic
hospital of that city. Miss Folsom's op-
ponent was Miss Blanche A. Littlefeld,
now Mrs. William FL. Gragg and leading
society belle of the Queen City of the
Lakes: Both were very beautiful. Miss
Llttleneld was perfect blonde, while Miss
foisom Is magnificent brunette. At the
tlme OF the contest each was about II
years OF age. For several evenings of the
week carnival the warfare, while friendly
WAS EXCEEDINGLY SPIRITED,
the friends Of both ladies fairly firing
themselves out in obtaining votes for their
candidate. 1t cost 10 cents to vote, and
the totals were so alarmingly close that the
Sngntest change one way or the other
would decide the contest. OH the closing
evening of the carnival, when BuffaIo's
beauty and fashion were all present,
and the excitement was at its
height, the sturdy form of Grover Cleye-
land appeared upon the scene. He may
nave known the facts all along. and arrived
Just III the nick of time purposely. Be
that as 1t may. he at once threw his influ-
ence IN Miss Folsom's favor, and directly
her total vote was advanced to a point Of
safety, and she was publicly declared the
most charming victor in the whole city,
The prize was costly lace pin set with
diamonds, and it is safe to say it is not ous
of her least priZed Ornaments

LUMBER MEN RESUME.
Chicago Mills COncede the Demands
of Their Lahnrers.

CHICAGO. May 1O.-The excitement over
labor troubles this morning was principally
confined to the lumber district In that
section great crowds assembled at an early
hour to see whether any of the old hands
in the yards and planning mills would return
to work. Along Blue Island avenue and
Twenty-second street the sidewalks were
lined with men, and a heavy patrol of po-
licemen were on hand to quell any disturb
ance. The mill to start up was that of
P. w. Ohler Il Co. Here eighty men went
to work at eight hours with nine hours pay.
Thomas R. Lyon put some of his teamsters
to work, but as they are employed by the
month the circumstance did not attract
much attention. Later in the morning all
the sash, door and blind factories in the dis
trict started up. About 1900 men went to
work. They will get nine hours pay for
eight hours work. The planning mill men
said they wished to start up but could not,
as they are dependent on the lumber yards
for material.
