GRANTS SECRETlVENESS.
The Responsibility of His Position Forced
Him to Guard His Utterances.


Him to Guard His Utterances.
General Horace Porter, in Cam
paigning With Grant," in The Century,
SAYS concerning General Grants seCre-
tiveness:
After the general had got some miles
out on the march from Cold Harbor an
officer of rank joined him. and as they
rode along began to explain plan
which he had sketched, providing for
the construction of another line of in
trenchments some di.tance in rear Of the
lines then held by US, to be used in case
the army should at any time want to
fall back and move toward the James
and should be attacked while with
drawing. The general kept ON smoking
his cigar, listened to the proposition for
time and then quietly remarked to the
astonished officer, 1.-THE army has al
ready pulled out from the enemy's front
and is now on its march 30 the James.
This is mentioned as an instance of
how well his secrets could be kept. He
had never been a secretiye man until the
positions of responsibility in which he
was placed compelled him to be chary
in giving expression to his opinions and
purposes. He then learned the force Of
the philosophers maxim that "the I'M
spoken word is sword in the scabbard,
while the spoken word is sword in the
hand Of ones enemy" In the field there
were constant visitors to the camp,
ready to circulate carelessIy any init
N, al iODc Of tho oOr,,,r,oD1orJc ,,,Oxyo,nop+c
at the risk of having such valuable in
formation reach the enemy. Any en-
couraging expression given to an appli-
cant for favOrs was apt to be tortured
into promise, and the general natural
ly became guarded in his intercourse
When questioned beyond the bounds of
propriety, his lips closed like wise,
and the obtruding party was left to sup
ply all the subsequent conversation.
These circumstances proclaimed him
man who studied to be uncommunica-
tive and gave him reputation for re-
serve which could not fairly be attrib-
uted to him. He was called the "Amer-
lean Sphinx, " ulysses the Silent and
the "Great Unspeakable, and was pop
ularly supposed to move about with
sealed lips. 1t is true that he had no
small talk" introduced merely for the
sake of talking, and many one will
recollect the embarrassment of a first
with him resulting from this
fact. But while, like Shakespeare's SOL
der, he never wore his dagger in his
mouth, yet in talking to small circle
of friends upon matters to which he had
given special consideration his CONVEX
ton was SO thoughtful, philosophical
and original that he fascinated all who
listened to him.

WHEN WE CRITlClSEFRIE
The Kindness of Ignoring Trivial Mis-
takes In Our Daily Life.


takes In Our Daily Life.
''There are two kinds of mistakes,
mistakes of moment and trivial mis-
takes" writes Edward w. Box in The
Ladies' Home Journal. Undoubtedly
the best service which one friend can
render another is to save him from a
mistake liable to be serious in it's re-
suits. In such an act lies true friend
ship. But in these days of criticism,
when we are apt to criticise everything
and everybody, we are all too apt to
correct mistakes which are absolutely
trivial and not worth correcting. And
yet in calling attention to them we Of
ten hurt the feelings of our best friends.
Not one OF us, even the most good ma
tured, likes to have his mistakes point
ed out We may appear not to mind cor
rections and accept them with a smile,
but 1t is human nature to smart under
correction, although some of us may be
clever enough to conceal the smart;
hence the fewer mistakes we call atten-
ton to in others the better
"Two-t thirds of the mistakes we make
are trivial. Their correction is unim-
portant. Why then notice them? Yet
some people do, and do so constantly. A
person speaks of having done certain
thing on Thursday, when in reality it
was done on Wednesday. If no impor-
tant point is involved, why call atten-
ton to the mistake? What good does it
do to have the exact day set right? It is
matter of no Importance, so why in
sist upon correcting the trivial error?
Stanch friendships have often been
pricked by this needle of useless correc-
ton. i is great art-this art of learn
ing to allow others to be mistaken when
the mistake is unimportant. Few learn
it, but those who do are among the
most comfortable friends one can have"

SAID HE PAID THEM MONEY.
Which, According To the Charge
Against Nlr-magnottO, Is False.

Anthony Magnetic has got himself
into a nice box owing to the unstable
ity of his virtue. He was held in $500
bail by Alderman Howe to "nswer at
court charge of perjury, The case
grew out of IA previous case i'm which
Magnetic was arraigned for obtaining
money under false pretenses Raphael
Caprianno, who is prosecuting the per-
jury case, was the aCCuser in this case
The charge was that Magnetic got
$25 from Caprianno for which price he
was to secure the release of Joseph
Dambroski, p. Getz, and one Caprian-
no, who had charges pending against
them in Alderman Millar's court. The
allegation made against Caprianno in
this first case could not be sustained
by evidence and he was discharged.
The perjury case is based on the in
formation furnished by Caprianno that
Magnetic swore he PAID SO to Alder
man Millar and s. to Attorney r. =,
Duffy which, it was charged, he did
not do. The case will come up before
the grand jury.

TIM MURPHY IN OLD INNOCENCE.
lie Was Seen at the Academy of Mu-
sic Last Night.

Tim Murphy Is an ambitious come
dian and his ambition does him credit
He made his reputation in "a Texas
Steer" a comedy that is not of the
most refined type but he thought he
was capable of better work and he is
trying to do 1t. Last night he was
seen at the Academy of Music in "Old
Innocence" 1t is the same comedy in
a slightly different guise that old John
Stoddard was seen in here three years
ago. That version of it was called "A
Pair of Spectacles."
Mr. Murphy cannot sing his pro-
nounCed individuality, but he never
theless gives delightful impersonation
of the character of Jason Green, whose
heart overflows with tenderness and
kindness. He had fine supporting
company, some of the members of 1t
being Dorothy Sherrod Jane Holly.
Wallace Jackson Frank Caltman and
Olney j. Griffin. After the last act of
"Old Innocence" the entire company
was called before the curtain and Mr..
Murphy made a short speech.
At the conclusion of the comedy Mr..
Murphy gave excellent impersonations
of Henry Irving in the character of
Matthias in The Bells" Stuart Rob-
son as Berle the Lamb in "The Henri
etta:' Sol smith Russell as Noah Vale
in "A Poor Relation" John Il. Ray
moned as Colonel Mulberry Sellers,
President Mckinley and William j.
Bryan.
The performance was given as n
benefit for the Crystal Hose company

HE HAS TWO GRIEVANCES.
But Chief of Police Kobiing Says Mr..
Degoc Has Only one.


There was burglary at L. w.
Deyoe's wholesale house, at u Dock
ash place, Tuesday night last, which
has caused the proprietor to be doubly
grieved. His first grievance is Of
course directed against the burglars.
They entered the store by forcing a
boarded window which faces on the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
tracks. The safe door is not locked
as a usual thing and wasn't on the
night in question. With q coupling pin
the intruders battered open the inner
drawers and ransacked their contents.
They secured $l.j0 in change and
also took along the strong box which
contained some valuable papers.
The second grievance is directed
against the police department. When
Mr.. Deyoe ON the morning of the 18th
discovered what had occurred during
the night he telephoned to Chief Rob-
ling. The chief promised to send a
man over to take charge of the case.
Mr.. DeYOe says that up to this time
no investigation has been made.
Chief Rubling when seen by Tri-
bune reporter in relation to the mat
ter said that on the morning the case
was reported to him he despatched
officer Dyer to the scene and received
| from him Il report of the case. Lieu
tenant Davis also, he says, investi-
| gated the case and received from Mr.
! Deyoe himself the account of what
| was taken and other such information.
