Bricks From Grants Tomb.

New York, Nav 4.-CalIers at the
city hall in search of bricks from the
temporary tomb of General Grant have
gone away disappointed. Two cart
loads of these brick had been brought
down 10 the city hall Saturday night
and stored away under lock and key in
one Of the old cells in the basement.
None of the callers obtained bricks for
the reason that the mayor has them
for specified purpose. Some time
ago" said he. L received a request
from Grand Army post in Illinois
for some of the bricks to be kept as
souvenirs. Since that time l have re-
ceived similar requests from Grand
Army posts all over the country. They
each want one brick at least as MEM
DRY.
When : was at the tomb q week
ago l asked Contractor Brady TO send
me 1000 of the bricks. He has done so,
and they are now down stairs. The
city owns the bricks and for that rea-
son l Will lay the question of their dis
tribution before the board G; estimate
and after permission is granted | win
cause the bricks to be sent To the Grand
Army posts. I think that Is q very
proper and appropriate Use to make OF
them"

HIS OWN MENAGERIE.
Strange Tenants in Cellar of a
Dwelling House.

San Francisco, May 4.-The cellar of
a house inhabited by human beings is
a strange place for wild beasts to make
their homes, yet this has happened far
back in the hills near Sunol. Alameda
county. where Antonio Zunez, a far
mer, lives with his family
Antonio is thrifty and Industrious
and has prospered. Two weeks ago he
moved from his old home into another
house that had not vet been occupied.
For several days after Antonio and his
family moved into their new home,
they heard strange sounds coming ap-
parently from the cellar As Antonio
was busy with his farm work and those
al the house were engaged in setting
things to rights, no effort was made to
ascertain the cause of the sounds, but
as day after day passed and the noise
from the cellar did not cease NuneZ
determined to make an investigation.
Though courageous Antonio is discreet,
and he called in a few friends to his
assistance Armed with ShotgunS they
had hardly reached the side of the
stone wall place when from the space
beneath the stairway bounded a splen-
did specimen of a California ioness.
Before a shot could be fired the animal
escaped through an open door. a sec
ond later and the lion, a big ugly
beast. made a jump for the stairway.
But this time Antonio was ready and
killed the animal at the first shot
While his friends stood guard at the
doorway Antonio made search I'M
derneath the stairway and found four
cubs. They were as comfortable as
kittens. having an old coat and a quilt
for bed. NuneZ took the biting and
scratching cubs upstairs and for the
rest of the day and far into the night
waited for the lioness to return. VT
the brute did not come back Nunez IS
going TO try and raise the cubs.
