How . Presidents Nose Was Pulled.
From the Baltimore Sun.
Mr.. james Carrigan Is o venerable Balti-
MORGAN whose mind is as clear and active as il
he were in his prime instead Of in his eighty
ninth year. He lives at 6I5 North Calvert
street with his family. He was born in Phila-
delphia September g. 1904, and he saw in that
city the fifth President of the United States,
James Monroe, when Mr.. Monroe visited Phila-
delphia after his Inauguration. Mr.. Carrigan
came to Balti more in 1885 and established a
morocco factory on what was then French
street, but is now Front street. He obtained
for five consecutive years the highest awards
from the Maryland Institute for morocco sam
Piles, the prizes being in the form Of gold
medals and certificate. Previous to coming
to Baltimore Mr.. Carrigxn lived for some time
and conducted business in Alexandria, Va,
where he went in 1873. Mr.. Csrrigan's memory
IL remarkably clear, aud he enjoys nothing bet
ter than to relate anecdotes Of the olden time.
In talking Of the pulling Of President Jack
sons nose by Lieut. Randolph, Mr.. Carrigan
said: "A strange incident occurred while 1

WITH GEN. GRANT.

II knew both Grant and Sherman before they
became famous and was very close to them
during the first part Of the war. Grant was
the great general Of the war and Sherman was
the great field marshal. Gen. Sherman was
great as q pYsher of men and Q fighter, but
Grant was The Washington of our civil strife
Sherman was full of good ideas. They called
him crazy when he proposed 100 600 men to be
marched right down into Tennessee and on
through the south, but that idea was q correct
one and had it been followed the north would
have conquered the south more quickly and
with a less loss Of men. Sherman was very
superior as q leader of an army where the lines
were mapped out, and as for Grant. he could
carry the whole country from the mountains to
the sea in his eve. He knew every part Of our
fighting grounds and of its people from the
Pacific slope to the capes Of Virginia. and he
played the game Of war with full knowledge
Of the position and the possibilities of every
man on the chess board.

The Propagation of Spring Lambs.
Nsip York EceniRg Sun.

The latest refinement in eating is be-
lieved TO be dollhouse lamb, especially
at S1.25 portion. Not even biscuits q
la refine so appeals to the Imagination
as the vision of the little lamb skipping
gaily about in a conservatory among
the wisterlas and smilax, browsing
on genestas and azaleas and catching In
its fleece the dropping petals OF the
American Beauty and Catherine Mer-
ments. 1t is pity TO destroy so pretty
a fancy, but an untoward spirit OF in
curry leads to the discovery that the
dollhouse is an euphemism for a
stable. 1t is, TO be sure, nice warm
stable, and kept as clean aud sweet as
a boudoir. 1t destroys the pleasant
vision. but the lamb profits no less.
The propagation Of: spring lambs
is one of the most interesting re-
sponses to the factidious palate OF these
later days. Early strawberries, forced
peaches, young asparagus and spring
chickens are as nothing compared to
the involved process that have produced
spring lamb. This has come about
only within the past ten years, and is the
result OF continuous and ingenorous
experiment. Before this time spring
lamb could not be found in the market
until the middle of March, nor easily
accessible until the 1st Of May. Spring
lamb now comes garlanded with Christ
mas holly. Last year one solitary lamb
kin helped to celebrate Thanksgiving,
and was almost without price. The an
nual Christmas yield Of sOring lambs In
town is about twenty. They are then
eating distinctly precious, each lamb
kin selling for at least SIS apiece. In
January they become more common,
and in February whole lamb can be
bought for Sc or 81. The spring lamb
is two months old when he is served at
table. He has passed his brief life in a
warm stall, and is fed only on his moth
er's milk. He has had his little run
for o constitutional on the clean floor,
but exercise is discouraged that might
make his flesh coarse or harden his mus
cles. He is kept as clean as baby,
and is groomed like sky terrier.
When his appointed hour is came, no
sacrificial offering could be in finer
condition, morally or physically.
