the waters. Hastings stole softly up
and put his hands over Grants eyes,
! saying: "Now, guess who it is!''
But Hastings drew his hands back
almost Immediately; they were wet
with tears; Grant was weeping. Hast
| ings was too surprised to say anything,
but Grant looked up and said kindly:
Hello, Hughey"'
''You are crying, General. What has
/ happened? What is the matter?" de-
manded Hastings.
Grant came pretty near breaking
down, but by heroic effort he pulled
himself together. eve get bad news
from England" he said. "Nellie is I'M
happy, and 1 can't help thinking about
it-thinking about it all the time. l am
in trouble, Hughey-the greatest trou-
BILE of my life"
The most famous sayings of Gen.
! Grant were:
'I'll fight it out on this line if it takes
all summer" and LET us have peace"
He was man Of few words. At one
! time he rode up to Gen. McGinnis, who
was in command of division, and,'
pointing to hill where the Confeder-
ates were intrenched, asked:
"Will your men go up that hill?'
"They will go through hell, if neces-
sary,' was the prompt reply.
"All right; they will have a chance
to do it after while" said Grant
quietly.
Shortly after the order was given to
storm the hill, and fOur-ffths of Nc
Ginnis' men were killed or wounded,
| but it was move that cost the Confed-
crates the day.
The day the outer lines of Petersburg
were carried and the troops were clos
| ing up on the inner lines, Gen. Grant
halted near house on a piece of ele-
waited ground which overlooked the
! field
| The position was under fire and the
enemy's batteries seemed to pay par
| ticular attention to the spot where
Grant and his staff were. 1t was sug-
gested that he move to a less exposed
position, but he paid no attention to
the advice After he had finished his
| dispatches and taken another view Of
| the enemy's works, he quietly mounted
| his horse and rode slowly to another
part of the field, remarking to the off,
GERS about him, with a decided twinkle
in his eye: WELL they do not seem to
have the range on u.s."
| Gen. Grant was always singularly
; free from profanity, and he despised
vulgarity. On one occasion a young
officer joined group about the Gen
eral and laughingly said:
| I've just heard a capital racy story
I must tell you. No ladies about, l
suppose?'
NO, sir" said Gen. Grant shortly,
| ''but there are some gentlemen here"
| The story remained untold.
Among Gen. Grants most marked
personal traits were five attributes
| which were conspicuous and pronounc-
ed to degree. They were truth, cour-
age, n odesty, generosity and loyalty.
| He was an absolutely truthful man.
One day while sitting in his bedroom
| in the White House, where he had re-
tired with message to Congress-, a
card was brought in by servant. An
officer on duty at the time, seeing that

Hugh Hastings went down to Long
Branch at one time to visit the Grants.
He was told that the General was sit

After the surrender at Appomattox
the Federal troops began to fire salutes.
Grant sent orders at once to have them
stopped, using the following words:
The war is over, the rebels are our
countrymen again, and the best sign
of rejoicing after the victory will be to
abstain from all demonstrations on the
field"

RUSSIANS OPTIMISTIC.
Believe Chinese Difficulties Will Soon
Be ArranQed.

st. Petersburg. May 11.-Oficial cir
cles take an optimistic view Of the
Chinese news. They consider that
substantial and rapid progress toward
an understanding is being made. Rus
sla is especially interested in the pro-
posal for Chinese loan guaranteed
by the powers jointly or severally to
the amount due to each. The view
neld in some quarters here is that
such a loan. SO guaranteed would not
only save China enormous discount
and interest. but would be the best
possible guarantee of the empires
integrity during the period of the
iaon. since the entire Chinese territory
would be considered as security for
the loan. The correspondent of the
Associated Press has reason to believe
the United States is fully informed
as to Russian views on this subject.
The Russian government as always,
is interested to ascertain Washing

SAN FRANCISCO, July 20-One of the

Eric and Hermann Kobbe. fifteen and
sixteen years old. for several weeks have
been shooting on a rifle range at Fort
Mason, where their mother lives. Men
in boats have complained of the boys
recklessness. One oarsman came near
having his boat sunk because the boys
peppered it with bullets.
Yesterday Wissig, with three compan-
ions. was in a rowboat when several shots
fell about them and Wissig received a
bullet through one lung, which the sur
geons at the hospital fear will prove ia
tai. The Kobbe boys told their mother
of their deed when they read of the
shooting and soon afterward detectives
arrived and charged them with the crime.
The younger boy admitted that he must
have shot Wissfg. but said that they did
not see any beat. Eric was held for
trial. fRf
