Several years ago I was the Omaha

Neb., the state capital, when the paper
changed hands. The new proprietor had
a policy in two words, Reduce sala-
ries!" In q few months he was himself
reduced TO the point where he couldn't

1t was only q question of a few weeks
when the paper would have to suspend,
and there was little honor or profit in
guiding the wreck.
For three weeks we managed to get
along somehow, and then the proprietor
went into retirement. The Republican
had the Associated Press franchise and
had presses and material worth $50, 600.

1t was a unique specimen. For weeks
Mr.. Rosewater, the proprietor of The

for The Republicans demise with eager

writer of the letter had been burning
the midnight oil in An attempt TO battle

The first line contained the letters
81. S. FE2O3." The letters were plain
enough, but what did they mean? The
next line began with a large A, then
there was a carefully executed drawing
of what had the appearance of a bar
ber's comb, then a small a, and finally
a representation of a house. drawn by
one whose early education had been sad
ly neglected.
What should have been the third line
of the address was in the shape Of o

in that vicinity. The last line was an
other map, showing the boundaries OF

It was plain enough that the letter
was for some one who lived in the state
of Missouri and in Kansas City. 1t did
not take a great stretch of imagination
to discover that the comb and the sketch
of a house had some vague reference tc
the Acoma building. So far it was easy

grow to depend so much upon their &C.
quired faculties as to be afraid Of a
change, even if they have the chance Of
one.
An illustration Of this is given BIZ q
woman in Brooklyn who never has

could u discover this except by her
own admission or by putting her to q
direct test, for she is one of the best ed
1cated women in the country, ccnver-
saut with languages, art, literature and
all the current topics Of the day. She is
rich, too, and conld afford all the sery-
ices OF the best teachers if she but chose
20 learn to reGd, but she refuses TO do &C.
When this wcInan was a child, her
parents lived far from schools, so she
had no CHARGE then to learn TO read On
write. As a mere child she began to
earn her own living, and again the
chance for schooling slipped away. Then
she married and the cares Of a family
took up her time. By the time the ba-
bies were of her hands, her husband
had grown rich, and then she began her
real education, and now, as a widow.
she continues it. Her companions read
to her and talk with her about all the
topics which interest her. Years of such
work have stored her mind with a rich
treasure of knowledge, and there is not
page Of a book that has been read to
her that she is not familiar with. Her
stores Of knowledge are at her instant
command. Why will she not learn to
read: Because, she says, she fears that
this wonderful memory, which is now
such a treasure house to her, might be
impaired If she were to do anything to
weaken the demands upon it.
What such a memory can do is well
illustrated in the case of a tailor of this
city who cannot read or write. He is
probably the most widely known man
in his business here, as for many years
he has done business with New York's
firemen and policemen. Almost every
man of these two bodies has dealings
with this tailor, and each month be-
tween the first and the tenth days he
visits every station house and engine
and truck house in this city to collect
his dues. He has acquired considerable
wealth, and it is said OF him that in all
the years he has dealt with the fremen
and policemen he never was known to
make q mistake of a cent in any mans
account, although all his records of
transactions have been kept in his head.

WHEN GRANT WAS POOR.
A Time In His Career When He Needed
the Wherewithal.

the Wherewithal.
General W. Fl. L. Barnes, one Ct the
leaders of the San Francisco bar, at a
meeting of the California commandery
Of the Military Order of the Loyal Lee
gion, told the following story about
General Grant. 1t was told years ago to
General Barnes by Captain Richard L.
Ogden, once a clerk in the Office of the
United States quartermaster at San
Francisco, and General Barnes recently
copied it from Captain Ogden's diary.
1t was that when Grant resigned his
commission as captain, at the age Of 80,
being then in Oregon, he went to San
Francisco on his way home and present
ed to Captain Ogden a certificate Of per
diem service on a court martial amount
ing to about $40. The certificate was in
correctly drawn, and Grant with a lool
OF despair asked Captain Ogden's per
mission 60 sleep ON the lounge in the
latter Office, saying he had not a cen
to his name. He slept on the rickety
Office lounge, and Ogden agreed to cash
the certificate personally and to send it
back to Oregon for correction. Grant
had expected to buy passage fer himself
to New York in the steerage. but Ogden
went with him to the Pacific Mail
steamship Office and procured for him a
cabin passage pass, OF what was the
nearest to it the steamship company
could give. for Grant had to pay his
railroad fare across the isthmus. This,
however, left him $15, and Grant was
very grateful
The diary quotes him as saying to
captain Ogden: This is a great luxury
and what did not expect, and I am in
debted to you for it. The prospect of
ever being able to reciprocate is GER
tainly remote, but strange things hap
pen in this world, and there is no know
