Tree Beneath Which Commission as
srieadier ceneraIsNss Received.

One of Missouri's historic
spots. a private park at Ironton,
- miles south Of st. Louis, con
tanning the giant oak tree under
which Ulysses 5. Grant stood
when he received his commission
Is brigadier general, and the
spring from which he slaked his
thirst during his encampment
there, was sold by a circuit court
suctioneer few days ago at the
door of the Iron county court
house.
The tract of eight acres. known
locally as Emerson park, was
knocked down to Or. W. j.
smith. Of IrontOn. for $1,000. 1t
IS understood that DR.. Smith was
bidding in the interest of an
Ironton syndicate which has ac-
luired the place with the object
Of improving it and selling il to
the United States government, if
possible. for a national park.
Emerson park is famous for its
possession of rhe Grant oak.
This tree is TO Missouri what the
Washington elm is to Cam

when it stood. was TO Hartford,

wears that have elapsed since
Grant made his headquarters at
the spot the tree has been visit
I'd BY thousands of st. LOuisans,
many of whom have sOjOurned in
Arcadia. half a mile to the south,
for the summer rest and recrea-
ton, and by many tourists from
faraway points.
The Grant oak is one of the
first objects pointed out TO the
visitor in the Arcadia valley. 1t
stands almost in the center OF
the valley and is a rugged and
towering giant, apparently capa-
BILE of withstandiDg the storms
of many more winters.
This tree, it is said by old resi-
dents of IrOntOn, was almost as
large in war time as at present.
About four feet from it's base is
splendid spring, one of those
never failing sources of pure wa
ter supply for which the Ozark
country is noted. In 1861 this
vicinity was practically an open

EXPECTED MUCH FROM WIT.

Antoine Rivarol, the French
epigrammatist Of the eighteenth
century, was so brilliant that
something good was expected of
him every minute. Once when he
bad been invited to dinner, at
which the hostess especially
wished him to shine, he sat quite
silent.
The attitude of disappointed
expectancy in the company net
fled him, and at last Rivarol
made a stupid remark. Every
body uttered an exclamation.
"There," said Riyarol, ~ can
hot say stupid thing without
every ones crying Thief"
At a dinner in the house of
some Germans he made a joke.
His hosts put their heads togeth-

WEAKNESS OF THE GREAT.

Julius Caesar, to whom the
music of great battles was sweet,
trembled at the sound of thunder
and built cellars under his house
where he might hide to escape
the sound. Queen Elizabeth, one
of the most fearless of women,
trembled like a leaf at the sound
of the word death" and Talley-
rand shivered and changed color
at the same word. Marshal SAKE,
a hero in many battles, screamed
and fled at the sight of cat,
while Peter the Great would not
cross a bridge unless it was abso-
lutely necessary, and then
crossed in terrible alarm, being
weak and sick afterward from
the terror.

cLoUp-sHooTINe.

"Cloud-shooting" is becoming
a regular form of artillery prac-
tice in many continental coun-
tries. The object of this atmos-
pheric gunnery is to dispel
threatened hailstorms. The most
recent form of CUR is a funnel
shaped barrel of iron with a
broad muzzle, so that the dis
charge shall be distributed over
as large a space as possible. The
effect of the discharge is to Gre
ate a small but powerful whirl-
wind, which, it is found, dis
perses clouds that would other
wise descend in hail. So strong
is the gust of wind sent upward
that it sometimes kills or dis
ables birds flying at great
heights overhead.

FREAKS OF MEMORY COMMON

One of the commonest freaks
of the brain is that the memory
will be extremely retentive in
some things and entirely defec-
tive in others.
One great American physician,
recovering from severe illness,
found that he had entirely lost
the power to speak or write prop
err names or any substantive, but
his memory supplied him with ad.
jectives readily. He overcame
his difficulty by designating any
one of whom he wished to speak
by calling him by his size, the
color of his hair or eyes, or by his
physical peculiarities.

ALL TURN AGAINST CHRISTIAN.

DR.. II. Martyr Clark, in the
Christian Patriot, writes on the
difficulties of British Indian con
yerts. He remarks: "a worker
in brass, let us say, has become a
Christian. All the springs of the
trade, all the wealth and stand
ing of it, are against him. The
mighty power of the members of
the craft down to the smallest
child grinds him hard through
every relation of life. There is
but one will and purpose through
the hundreds of thousands of his
people. His touch is defilement,
his presence a curse. He has left
the religion of his fathers. He is
an abOmination. Then the rest
of the world is leagued against
him. In hating the Christians
men of different faith find a
strong bond of union.n

REAL HAPPINESS.

The happiest man in the world,
so says the SweetWater Tele-
phone, is the common everyday
chap who makes his own living,
pays his own bills, has a little
money as he goes along, but
doesn't strive to get corner on
the local output and is a slave
neither to ambition or society.
He loves his God and his fellow
man, thinks "there is no place
like home" the haven Of rest,
never has to sit mp at night to
Doultice his conscience, believes
in the doctrine of live and let
live. The plain man is happy be-
cause he is satisfied and does not
spend the best of his life yearn-
ing for things four sizes too
large for him.
