New Story Of
Grant

Col. George Inman, a civil engineer
who was an engineer in the Union
army with Grant in front of Petersburg
in 1SS4-1S65, as colonel of engineers
now engaged on some public work
near Richmond, told this story of U. S.
Grant to group of Confederate vet
Grams. eX-officers, there recently.
In the winter of 1864 a Capt. Hamil-
ton of the Confederate army was cap
tured within the Federal lines. and
there were found on his person papers
which clearly indicated that he had
penetrated the lines for the purpose of
gaining information for Gen. Lee. He
was court-martialed and was at once
condemned to be hanged at sunrise
the next day. Col. Hamilton, who was
in command of a cavalry regiment un-
der Gen. Grant. was charged with the
duty of furnishing the detail which
was to execute the sentence of the
court.
The night of the day on which the
court pronounced the sentence on Capt.
Hamilton Col. Inman went to Gen.
Grants tent to see him on matter
connected with the operations against
the Confederates. He had been in the
tent for some time when the orderly
announced, Col. Hamilton" A SOL
dierly appearing officer entered and
saluted. Before Gen. Grant had time
to speak the colonel said in hard
tones: General l cannot obey the
order to execute that spy tomorrow
morning"
Gen. Grant started as if shot.
why not?" he said in sharp tones.
The colonel was silent. He stood
with barred head dropped on his bosom.
Gen. Grant again asked him why he
refused to obey his order, and this
time there was sharpness in his tone
which was not there before. Col. Ham
ilton raised his head and looked the
commander-in-chief full in the face.
General, that man is my only son. ;"
Gen. Grant looked his officer in the
face for moment. Then he turned his
back. The colonel remained standing
and silent, uncovered and his head
bowed. Then Gen. Grant wheeled
around and said in harsh voice:

How the Great
Commander
Nullified q Harsh
Order That He
Had Given

Col. Hamilton, you will obey your
orders"
The colonel saluted and left the tent
Col. Inman remembered that the
next morning the detail charged with
the duty of hanging the spy went to
the tent and when the sentry entered
it was found that there was nobody
inside.
About ten years afterward Col. In,
man was in San Francisco on business
connected with his profession. While
there he CHANGED to meet Mr.. Hamil-
ton, with whom he became we'll &C
quainted. Hamilton one day men
toned that he was in the Confederate
army and the relation of war expert
ences began. 1t came out that the Mr..
Hamilton was the Capt. Hamilton
whom Col Hamilton had been ordered
to hang. There were questions from
Col. Inman of course. and the story OF
the escape of the young soldier was
brought out.
On the night before the day on
which he was to be executed, he said.
after midnight, he was lying on the
blanket in his tent, half asleep, for the
circumstances did not warrant heavy
sleep. He was aroused by the entrance
of some one into the tent. A candle
was burning dimly and he saw before
him heavily built man with short
stubby whiskers, wearing a blue uni
form without any insignia of rank on
his shoulders a black SLOUGH hat
pulled down over his eyes. He recog'
nized Gen. Grant.
The story does not go into details as
to the conversation which ensued. The
result was that the condemned spy,
after there has been eXacted promise
that he would never again assume the
part which had so nearly cost him his
life, was given the countersign which
would enable him to pass the sentries.
Then the man in the SLOUGH hat went
away.
And the man who was to have
hanged him at sunrise did the same
thing, and before the sun was set was
within the Confederate lines.-New
York Journal.

Crow Indians Wealthy .
Tribe in Montana Owns Three Million Acres of Land

"The Grow Indians" said J. E. Ed

that tribe, in talking with Washing

"have a magnificent reservation of
over 100000 acres of land in Mon
tana. l think it is about the best
reservation in the United States. They
want to sell 1,15O,O0O acres, and there
is prospect of such legislation being
enacted by the present congress.
There are about 1000 Of the Crows.
They came nearer maintaining the
purity of their Indian blood than any
other tribe. At the same time their
numbers are decreasing. Consump-
ton has done it's tell work among
them, and it's ravages continue. 1t
seems strange that they should be
such easy victims to this disease. con-
sidering the robust original stock and
their active outdoor life But it Is
true that there is no community, nor
race, in the world where the mortality
is SO great from tuberculosis as among
these fullblood Crows. 1t is largely
due. many think, to their imprudence
in personal exposure and neglect of
simple rules of health.
They have about 100000 invest
ed in irrigation facilities. and are

DUEL ON THE TAPIS.

Capt. F. G. Wilson, former comman-
der of one the companies of the Sayan-
nah Volunteer Guards, one of the most
exclusive military organizations of Sa-
vannah, and Mr.. John Sullivan Schley,
also member of that command, are
about to fight a duel on the field of
honor with deadly weapons. At least, a
challenge has been sent by Mr.. Schley
and accepted by Capt. Wilson, and un-
less efforts now afoot result in prevent
ing the meeting, there is every prospect
that it will take place. 1t was on the
trip to Charleston on Thanksgiving Day
that the trouble between the gentlemen
occurred They were members Of rifle
team that represented the guards in
contest. After the team had won its
members were assembled in the lobby of
the Hotel Argyle, where an alteration
between Capt. Wilson and Mr.. Schley
resulted in the latter being struck and
Knocked down. Regarding himself as
unequal to physical contest with Capt.
Wilson, he promptly sought friend
who conveyed challenge for a meeting
on the field of honor. The challenge
was promptly accepted, and Capt. Will
son has the choice of weapons. Great
alarm among the friends of the gentle
men has been expressed. Both are
dead shots, Captain Wilson especially
having a national reputation and posses
sing more than 100 medals and trophies
won at Sea Girt and elsewhere in rifle.
revolver, and shotgun competition. Mr..
Schley has also represented Savannah at
the Sea Girt contests, and at Charleston
his score was the highest made. A
meeting between such marksmen would,
it is feared, prove fatal for one or both
if they fired with intent to kill. Three
OF the most prominent men in Savannah,
all retired officers of rank in the State
service, constitute "board of honor
which has insisted upon taking the
matter under advisement to see if it may
not be amicably adjusted. Thus far
each principal has proven obdurate, and
is is feared that neither will yield. In
such an event it cannot but come to a
duel, Both gentlemen are prominent
