The Grant Family.

It can be claimed for the Grant fam
| lily, without fear Of contradiction, that
they have kept themselves more prom
dren Of any of the other Presidents.
The three sons of General Ulysses s.
Grant are now In the prime of life.
First in the family stands Col. Freder-
lex d. Grant. He is West Point grad
uate and served some little time with
his father Mt the front just before the
close Of the war. He was prominent
during his fathers occupancy of the
White House, and he has been more or
less in the public eye ever since, having
held some sort of an Office almost un-
interruptedly since his fathers retire
ment.
The home life Of the Grant family is
thoroughly American. Col. Grant mar
ried sister of Mrs. Potter Palmer, of
Chicago, Miss Honore, and she has
made typical American home in the
heart Of the metropolis. They have
two children, boy and a girl. Julia
Dent Grant, the eldest of the two, is
now a little over 20 years Of age. She
has been in society for a few months,
al has become quite popular both in
this city and in Washington. She be-
gan her social career at Newport. She
is beautiful young woman, well edu-
Gated and entirely able to earn her own
living, If that shall became necessary.
She speaks half dozen languages,
and has developed very satisfactorily a
talent for painting. Shortly before
General Grants death he left letter
directed to the President of the United
States who should be serving in the
year 1896, asking him to appoint the
lad to the military academy. This let
ter was not presented to President
Cleveland because of the necessity for
more preliminary study. but it has been
turned over to President Mckinley,
and when the term at West Point be-
gins Ulysses s. Grant H., will be en-
tered as the personal appointee Of Pres
ident Mckinley. Young Grant is an
enthusiast on military matters. He
has inherited his grandfathers taste
for a soldiers life, and is looking for
ward to great career in the army

MURDER BY MAIL.

It is to b, hoped that the mystery surrounding the poisoning Of two wo- men and child in Delaware by means If candy sent through the mails will be clearly solved. Mrs. Botkin, now under ares. in San Francisco, {. is charged with the crime. The case pre- sents many, curious and startling fea- tures and indicates an opportunity for crime so readily at the hand of a would-be murderer that it behooves the authorities tc exert every effort to fasten the guilt plainly upon the as- sassins whether it be this woman or some other person. The opportunity to send. poison through the mails is open to every one. The chances favor it's taking effect in the desired guar ter, with the clues to detection reduced Q a minimum. In this case prompt efforts revealed lines of evidence point ing to the San Francisco woman Yet il was by a chance that she was sus- De cted, and she may even now be freed "y oOiue lul l, Oi 'tic leSliutuy LIE prosecuting authorities appear to real ;za the vital heec of alertness in view of the dangerous nature of the crime, and the best wishes of the law-abiding people of every state go with them in their work. This case and others which have occurred clearly indicate that it is the course of safety for any drink through the mails to secure ar analysis before partaking.

The president, in his selections fer the Paris peace commission, has given r he country another evidence of his good judgment of men apd of his abil- fly to. grasp 6 difficult situation. The case of the United States will be in hands entireiy competent to manage it. Three of the commissioners, by reason of opportunities enjoyed in office, are already familiar with the whole con- tr7versy With Spain, while all five are accustomed to weighing and deciding questions of large moment. It is un-- necessary to add that all are sound Americans, a1iG will pass upon the bus mess brought before them in spirit Of patriotism ard of justice.
 One form of describing the situation is to say that tho only question to be decided a. Paris is the future of the Philippin IS. Eut that is very mo- iuentous question, and we'll worthy the attention of the distinguished tribunal before wlich it is to be tried. ~ The United States has triumphed over Spain, and in the matter Of the Span isn possessions H. this part of the world nottipg remains to be done but to formally assert and inaugurate American control. Spain is quite as helpless in the far. east as she is here ill the west, but there are phases of the case there " hich require consideration quite apart from her helplessness and our power. We enter there a field new to us and full of difficulties, and calling, therefore, fer tho utmost care and eau tion on our rsrt in determining what American interests require to be done.
 It is to be -l.oped that the present at- titude of foreign powers on this sub iect may be maintained to the end. We do not expect to hear from them even ;n the way of c suggestion and any thing in the nature of a warning would have an effect tie very opposite of that intended.
