OVATION TO SON
 OF GENERAL GRANT
Confederate Veterans Evinced Deep Feelings of Affection When He Was Seen at Memphis Hand
 clasps and Tears.

Memphis, Tenn, June 10-A frenzied demonstration of well come by the men in gray for tke son of the man who conquered them marked the fiual scene of the nineteenth reunion of the United Confederate Veterans to- day. It took place during the parade. In the reviewing stand stood General Frederick Dent Grant of the United States Army. The first few divisions in line passed with only limited num- Der recognizing the son of the man who accepted the surrender of Lee. But finally d cavalry di. vision approached and it's com handing officer, old and grizzled, perred steadily at General Grant a moment. Then he turned in his saddle and yelled:
 ''Come on you kids, here's Gen. eral Graut, come to life again in his sonw
 With one of the old-time Rebel yells the division charged upon the stand and jostled one another for an opportunity to shake the hand of the son of their old-time enemy.
 From that moment every gray clad veteran who could reach the stand rushed up to shake hands with General Grant. The stocky army officers cold gray eyes filled with tears aud his shoulders shook with emotion as he mur- mured "God bless you all, boys, god bless you" giving each a cordial hand grasp. Battle ban ners were grouped at his feet and waived over his head in salute. One old officer rose up to the stand, seized General Grants hand and kissed him on the cheek, exclaiming, "God bless you, boy. 1 fought your father, of whom you are the image, but he was a gallant, magma nimous toe and 1 love his son."
 More than one veteran was in tears as he saw the famous feder- al chieftan's son so touched by this reception. It is doubtful if any other Northern man, even a president, ever received such an ovation as that which was spon taneously gwen to General Grant by the Confederate veterans to- day
