Briqadier General
Frederick Dent Grant.
THE SON OF HIS FATHER AT THE FRONT.

with him TO remain abroad as our
representative at the imperial court
of Austria. He insisted, however,
upon reSigning, and returned to
America in 1898, since which time he
has made his home in New York. and
under the reform administration of
Mayor Strong was one of the police
commissioners Of the city.
Our picture represents Colonel
Grant seated in front of his tent at
Camp Black. Both in face and figure
he bears a striking resemblance to his
illustrious father. He is a soldier by
birth and education. and he has al
ready demonstrated, in the care and
disposition of his men. in camp and
on the march, the advantages of the
knowledge and training which our
great military academy confers upon
men whose duty ii is to command.
Already he has won the confidence of

willingness to share the hardships of
war which distinguished our great
leaders. both in the revolution and the
later war of secession. that has eE.ab-
lished the relations of confidence and
sympathy of rank and file which have
made our armies invincible.

The Marriageabl Age.

The "marriageabie age" varies great
ly. In Austria a man" and woman"
OF fourteen are supposed to be capable
OF conducting a home of their own. In
Germany the man must be at least
eighteen years Of age. In France and
Belgium the man must be eighteen and
the woman fifteen. In Spain the in
tended husband must have passed his
fourteenth year and the woman her
twelfth. The law in Hungary for Ro-
man Catholics is that the man must be
fourteen years old and the woman
twelve; for Protestants the man must
be eighteen and the woman fifteen. In
Greece the man must have seen at least
fourteen summers and the woman
twelve. In Russia and Saxony they are
more sensible. and a youth must re-
frain from matrimony till he can count
eighteen years. and the woman till she
can count sixteen. In Switzerland men
from the age of fourteen and women
from the age of twelve are allowed to
marry. The Turkish law provides that
any youth and maid who can walk
properly and can understand the nee
essary religious service are allowed to
be united for life.
