A memorial meeting was held a few

been prominent in public work. His

birth, "in the troublous days when all
Europe was aghast at the sight Of Ma
poleon striding over the ruins Of empires
to a universal throne.
"But the most important event of his
life," he continued, happened at a
later date. It was at a fancy ball that
he met, as he afterward said, the first
and only love Of his life. He was there
disguised as a highlander.
"What?" he whispered as some n
tugged at his coat, but getting nc reply,
he went on-"And the lady of his
choice was dressed''-here there was an
other tug-"was dressed as a Turkish
cigarette girl. After a short courtship
they were married.
He then continued the eulogy of the
youthful bride of the deceased in ex-

GAVE GRANT HIS START.
How the Great Commander Went Bach

How the Great Commander Went Bach
Into the Army.
The Washington Post is authority for
the statement that the late General
Thomas j. Pitcher gave General Grant
his real start. They had been classmates
at West Point. At the opening Of the
civil wal Pitcher, then a captain, had
been sent to Springfield, Ills, to act as
United States mastering officer. A
stranger entered his Office one day, and
Pitcher relates the following story Of
the interview:
"'You don't seem to remember me,
Tom,' said the visitor.
"'No, I DON'T I said, but I've seen
you somewhere I know
"'I'm Sam Grant,, he answered.
ellis beard had so changed him that
/ did not know him, and then. you sec,
I had not seen him since 1S49. He sat
down, and I said: We'll, Sam, how does
it happen that you acs here?'
eel came here he laid, to get some
thing to do. Can't you give me some
thing, Tom?'
"'Yes, I can,' said I. you know
how to make out muster rolls?
"'I should think so,' said Grant, with
the first smile seen on his face.
"'Well, I am allowed 500 per month
and rations for a clerk. If you like, take
that table over there and begin now.'
A month later Pitcher walked into
his office and handed his clerk an official
envelope directed to Colonel U. S.
Grant," The clerks face turned red,
then pale.
"There's your chance, Sam," SAID
Captain Pitcher.
"I'll never forget this, Tom, never!'
answered the other as he wiped some
thing out of his eyes with his handker
chief.
Nor did he. Until Grants death hi
was Pitchers faithful friend and helper
1t was always "Sam" and "Tom' be
tween them.
