| one day, an. wber Lady Walker asked
| him why he spoke frankly. but without
! the least touch of tiattery, saving that he
had never been made more comfortable in
his life and that he was greatly enjoying
his first glimpse of the English social
world.
Grant fell into the ways OF English So
ciety very readily, although it differed in
a hundred insignificant ways from that
which he had Just left on the other side
OF the Atlantic. He only made one
''break" during his stay at Greateacre
grange and after his departure Lsdy Wal
ker, who was not as rule partial to Am.
orleans. pronounced him "a miracle of
good manners.
The Derby was about to come off at Ep-
SOM, and Grant, who was exceedingly
fond of horses. expressed himself as de-
lighted that he had arrived in England
in time to witness it. He had accepted a
great dry rooos merchant of Cincinnati.
Sir Peter Walkers coach had arranged to
take Jesse. and, as was only human, per-
haps. Sir Peters party was somewhat
proud that the son OF the most distin-
guished general should be its guest on that
occasion. However, as it had already
turned out. General Grant had already ac-
copied Mr.. Shillingto's invitation to have
jesse make one of their party. and he
was given the second seat next to the
driver alongside his ather.

enjoyed the trip to EPSON hugely. He
had provided himself with pea shooter
and had no end of fun with the coster-
mongers. clerks and small .radesmen,
who were accustomed to the exchange of
such playful com mpliments on Deroy day.
1t is funny to record that the great
soldier, who had never f1inched from the
bullets OF the enemy. was decidedly un-
easy as the peas intended for Jesse came
hustling past him, but anyone who has
been struck by one OF these missiles wnen
impelled by the lungs of healthy coster..

find plenty of excuse for his timldity.
Wnen they arrived at Epson Downs Mr..
McKenzie's Rd db Roy was the favoite in

that horse being prime favorite. in
case it won he could do little more than
double his money.
In this dilemma Jesse coolly sought out
and obtained an introduction to Mr..
Sandio ford and frankly asked him what he
thought of his horses chance of winning.
"If I only had Archer" replied Mr..
Sandford. II should feel quite confident
of winning the race. but if you take my
advice you will bet en- Silvio."
Whereupon Mr.. Sandford introduced
the young American to Davis. the cele-

given Jesse that Silvio would not capture
the blue ribbon. The general himself did
not bet cent on the race.

Angry at the Tricks
Played on Him

1t was while General Grant was on his
famous tour of The globe that his son,
Jesse Grant first had glimpse of real
life. He learned his lesson like Z ready
made philosopher, and if he enjoyed MIN =
self, as he undoubtedly did, he also left
behind the record Of being an unassum-
ing BOY and an al-round good fellow. The
recent Grant celebration in Chicago
brought out some dcectable stories that
were particularly enjoyable because they
possess the element of truth.
At the time of General Grants arrival
on British shores Mr.. William P. Clash
er happened to be the guest of Sir An
drew Barclay Walker, who was then may
or of Liverpool. at Greatacre grange. The
guests from over the Atlantic had been ex-
pected to arrive not sooner than the mid
die OF the week. but an unusually favor
able passage brought the distinguished
a American to the hospitable doors of the
grange fully twenty-four hours before he
was expected. The house party consisted
of Sir Andrew and Lady Walker. Miss
Mary Walker. now Mrs. William Court,

and several others less prominent in En-
glish society.

Sir Andrew took the rugged soldier quito

most forcibly was the prefect mechanism

fine teeth and quiet forceful manner are
most persuasive. Mrs. Harland's first
public position was the secretaryship of
the state board of lady managers for Cali
fornia in the World fair commission.
She had her first experience in organi-
cation at that time, and became very gen.
orally acquainted with the places and
neople throughout the state. Later Mrs.
Harland was a lecturer through Califor-
MIA. Oregon anu Washington. On the
10th OF July she began her suffrage work
by commencing negotiations with the
Los Angeles Woman Suffrage club.
1t is MIS-. Harland's idea ana desire 10
