jaw emphasize the strong influence of
heredity in the Grant family. A few
days before his death General Ulysses

him to appoint his grandson to a cadet

gladly did 50. He was graduated with

Fred Grant had other L1atS while
be was at West Point, though his class

more, son of General Gilmore Of
civil war fame, who, by the way, fur
nishes another instance of the trans
mission from sire to son of the military
instinct.
1t is a question whether he and
Grant ever finally decided the ques
ton of their comparative fighting
qualities. Sometimes one would thrash
the other, and then the operation would
be reversed. Freds classmates always
insisted that, however else he differed
from his sire, he lacked nothing of his
fathers courage and perseverance, and
the same tendency is heard from those
who have been intimately associated
with him in later life.
Another characteristic besides cOur-
age and perseverance which the pres
ent General Grant has in common
with his father is that of sticking to
his friends and doing things for people
because they are his friends Army

The instances of the gallant SONS of
heroic sires who have donned the uni
form of Uncle Sam might be still fur
ther extended. Doubtless one reason
why names are perpetuated in the ar
my list from generation to generation
is that high ranking officers are anx-
ious to put their sons into the service
and use their influence in Washington
to that end. The nonpartisan appoint
ments which the president makes to
the army and navy are usually given
to such applicants. Undenably, how
ever, the military impulse and genius,
like many other qualities, are herita-
bic, and this probably accounts in large
measure for the fact that the scions of
fighting fathers adopt so commonly
and with so much alacrity the profess
sion of arms. The military spirit
plainly runs in the blood.

Wolf of London, it probably has sea
of litigation to cross.

Rossland camp was the opening up on
the ninth level o. the LIE Roi mine OF
the big ore shoot, from which ore has
been stopped for the past couple of
months on the 500 level.
The report that the Great Northern
has practically secured the necessary
rights of way for the extension from
Grand Forks to the CRANKY smelter
and the mines at Phoenix, B. c., is con-
firmed by G. A. Des Brisay, who is
right of way agent of the road.

in the Aspen Grove mining country,
north Of the Similkameen. If present
arrangements go through company
will be organized by John E. Bates,
with capital of $75O,OOO, to put up a

copper ores Of Aspen Grove valley.
Mr.. Bates is managing director of the
