WHY GRANT WAS GREAT.

Due Recognition Whom True Merit
 is Once Established.
 Was Grant great generals- conceded What made him sos
 When U. S. Grant was hauling cord wood into St. Louis his neighbors did not imagine he would become the most fa- nous man of his generation. When he was managing the little tannery in Galena no one of his intimates recognized in him . future hero. But he displayed qualities which should have satisfied them he was no common man. What was there about hims
 If you start to build single story shanty you pay little attention to the foundation; you may lay stringers in the sand, with little fear the building will fall. But if you propose erecting ten-story block. your architect will tell you you must go to the rock for the basis of your foundation, or the stately structure is ia- ble to tumble about your ears.
 The foundation of great man is moral force-character; this is the rock founda- tion. The shiftless man lacks it; he never succeeds. Grant never used an oath-a sure indication of moral character. He never told, or listened to, if he could help it, vulgar story; this showed peculiar moral fibre, an unusual strength of char acter He was a man of opinions-as his wife said, was obstinate; in other words, he had will power, force.
 These qualities, with good judgment, well balanced mental powers. and peculiar executive ability, supplemented by mill tary education, fitted him for the emer- gency when it came. As soon as his mer- | it's became known Success was assured This is always the case with things as with men. sI we'll know the value of War ner's Safe Cure" writes M.

Weakness in Sugar-Strength m Lack. aWanna-ImprOveme in the Gen. eral Market in the Final Dealings.
 Nsw YoHk. Oct. IS.
 Railroad bonds were steady and stronger and with very limited business $776, there were only slight changes in quotations, except in a very few instances. The important changes are generally in the upward direction. Burlington, Cedar Rapids and Northern flrsts rose to 93A; Northern Western sinking fund flves 11z to 1O71s. Stocks opened hesitatingly with a weakness in sugar which enc outraged the putting out of further short ines in the regular list, but the very pronounced strength in Lackawanna was a supporting influence in the market and the de- cline of 134 per cent in sugar was sufficient to induce only slight losses in railroad stocks. In the afternoon when Lackawanns made it's great advance attacks upon North American and the others were made probably with view to coun- teract the influence of Lackawanna, and while there was no upward movement elsewhere in the list the undertone was maintained at it's former degree of strength. The final dealings saw an improvement in the general market, but no movement of importance resulted and the mar ket closed dull, but firm at insignificant changes as a rule.
