Two Interesting Widows.
Two of the most interesting widows in
New York are Mrs. Ulysses Grant, wife
Of the great Northern leader, and Mrs.
Jefferson Davis, wife of the president Of
the confederate states. Mrs. Grant owns
a magnificent home on the fashionable
west side near Riverside Park. The
halls parlors and Libraries are filed with
reminders OF the distinguished general.
There are battle pictures hung with tat
tered old flags, busts in bronze and mar
bic and wonderful gifts from all sorts
and conditions of people.
Mrs Davis lives with her daughter,
Miss Winnie Davis. at one Of the fash
ionable hotels on Fifth avenue. Here she
receives with old-fashioned southern b9s-
pitality. the flower of northern and
southern chivalry. 1t seems strange that
these two women, whom the war left
in such widely different spheres, one the
wife of the conqueror, the other the wife
of the conquered, should come after long
years from the west and the south to
live in New York. Strangest of all is the
fact that they are warm personal
friends and spend much of their time
together. GEORGIA W. CLIENT.
