ACTING WITHOUT ORDERS.

General Grants Tribute to General
sheridan's Judgment.
Senator Hoar In his "Reminiscences"
says that at dinner where General
Grant and other distinguished men
were present Commodore Alden re-
marked that there was nothing he dis.
liked more than subordinate who nj.
ways obeyed orders. "What is that
you are saying. commodoreY said Pres
ident Grant across the table. The COM
modore repeated what he had said.
you say" said General Grant. Zone Of
the virtues of General Sheridan was
that he knew when to act without or
ders. Just before the surrender of Lee,
General Sheridan captured some dis
patches, from which he learned that
Lee had ordered his supplies to a GER
tain place. l was on the other side OF
the river. where he could get no COM
munication from me until the next
morning. General Sheridan pushed on
Mt once without orders, got to the place
fifteen minutes before the enemy and
captured the supplies. After the sur
render was concluded the first thing
General Lee asked me for was rations
for his men. / issued to them the same
provisions which Sheridan had cap
tured. Now, IL Sheridan, as most men
would have done, had waited for orders
from me Lee would have got of" SEN
ator Hoar adds this comment: II lis
tened with wonder at the generous
modcsty which. before that brilliant
company, could remove one of the
brightest laurels from his brow and
place II on the brow OF Sheridan"

EARLY PLANTING.

may be at hand. The north half of the
ridge should remain undisturbed SO as
to shelter the young plants on the south
side, and In case the nights are very
cold or there Is real danger from an un-
expected frost the plants can be easily
and quickly covered with large sheets
of daily or weekly newspapers and the
plants thus be effectually protected.
Whenever the mercury In the thermom-
eter falls as low as "a degrees the
plants should be covered Immediately.
After the plants are well established
and two or three inches in height scat
ter enough nitrate OF soda along each
side OF the plants to give the soil a
graylsh appearance and work 1t into
the surface soil, being very careful,
however, not to use too much nitrate
and to keep 1t from coming in contact
with the stem or roots Of the plants.
As originally outlined in Farm and
Flreslde, this plan was for the fall,
when the soil II of clay and not under
drained received heavy coating of
well rotted barnyard manure which
was plowed or spaded- to thoroughly
intermix 1t with the soil and was aft
erward rldged, as shown.

Early Glimpse. of Greatness.


The Union at oxford must have been
a fine school Of debate for more than
one student successful in after years
as public speakers. William Charles
Lake, formerly dean Of Durham, says
In his memoirs that he has heard Lord
Coleridge say:
"well, | have never heard better
speaking anywhere than heard at the
Union"
Dean Lake recalls two speeches
which he heard there at different times.
When he was president Of the Union
an unknown gentleman commoner
made n striking and very poetical
speech. Especially memorable was his
description of the Alps.
"Who is this?" asked Lake,
"Ruskin. a gentleman commoner Of
Christ Church." was the answer.
The Alps had already set fire to the
imagination of the man who was to
describe them as they never have been
described by another man.
On another occasion, some years lat
er, Lake heard a brilliant speech of
quite different character.
"Who was that?"
"A young gentleman commoner just
come up to Christ Church, Lord Robert
Cecil"
This was Lord Salisbury, who be-
came the great figure In public life
which on hearing that boyish speech
Lake predicted he would be.

FRENCH PoLITENESS.


IL IL Widespread, Oppressive and
Time Devouring.
During one summer which I spent
among exclusively French people in q
hotel at Saint t-Germain estimated that
! lost quite twenty-four hours out or
each week saying good morning and
good evening to the men, women, lit
tie children and dogs about me. If you
encounter the same person twenty-five
times in the same day, you must smile
rapturously, pause, at least shake
hands il you do not kiss, tremendously
inquire how he or she is going and
tremendously bid him or her "au re-
voir' at parting. Not only every man
and woman expects this, but all the
little children toddle up to you, shake
hands and exact the same amount or
ceremony. Then every we'll regulated
French family has a dog that more
than likely occupies a chair and eats
Off plate beside you at the table, so
that 1t is considered churlish IL you do
not also stop and tell the dog 'sbon
jour" and .'au revoir" a dozen times q
day, pausing to take the paw which he
is prettily taught to extend to you.
When the washerwoman brings home
your linen, there are at least five min
utes spent in tremendously greeting
and parting from her. In the operation
Of receiving and paying for linen you
exchange "mercis" and ''pardons" not
fewer than ten times. Any other serv-
ing person or tradesman who comes to
do business with you throughout the
day you similarly receive with 'bon
jour, monsieur" and eau revoir, mon
sieur," and you thank him and beg his
pardon, as often as you can possibly
get the words into the length Of time
he has to stay.-Harper's Bazaar.

The study OF music is equal to the
study of literature and languages as a
means of intellectual growth, superior
10 the study of mathematics and In no
way inferior to the study Of the nat
pral sciences 1t is more available and
adaptable than the study Of psychol-
ogy, because, while calling forth the
intellectual powers, 1t engages the emo
tions and assures that condition nee
essary to the best development of
thought-viz, genuine enjoyment Of the
means employed.
1t strengthens the memory, calls rea-
son into lively play, faeers habits Of
exact thought. inspires the imagina-
tion. enhances the perceptive faculty,
facilitates physical expression, arouses
the emotional nature, cultiyates the
aesthetic principle and gives breadth Of
menta, comprehension. In all these
things music stands in the front rank
Of the sciences. If indeed II does not
lead then ALI. pan any science do
frere as factor in intellectual growth
to develop the many sided nature Of the

They Arc Hospitasle People ana

The Colombians are hospitable peo-
pie and receive strangers cordially. 1t
is customary for stranger to send
cards to those whose acquaintance he
desires, and etiquette demands that the
recipients of the cards call within q
few days.
The dining tables of the rich are
spread with fine linen and set with
handsome cut glass and china. Among
their beverages, in addition to winesy-
are cebada, barley water; orchada,
which contains almond juice and sug-
ar; agrass, the juice of unripe grapes;
naranjada, orangeade and a prepaEa-
tion Of chocolate thick as cruel. A dish
for invali6s is sopa de pan. A raw egg
Is broken upon n slice Of toast, and
beef broth is poured over it. A break
fast often consists OF several courses
for instance, fruit, poached eggs, with
stewed tomatoes and rice; fish, chops
fried In eggs and herbs and tortill0.
con seso, brain omelet, sweet potatoes
or other vegetable and coffee. SAT-
from is favorite flavoring for soup.
Chicken or game pies contain q variety
of vegetables, hard boiled eggs and
other ingredients. A common dish
among the poor is a stew called sin
coche. Another standby is rice and red
beans. Rice cooked in lard, with lit
tie tassado dried beef for relish, is
tidbit among the lower classes. The
flesh Of the iguana, n species of land
lizard. Is regarded as delicacy and 10
said to resemble chicken. The natives
slit the sides Of living female iguanas
and take from them strings Of eggs as
large as plums. They hang these eggs
in the sun and dry them for future
consumption.
