Two Anecdotes or Grnn1.

'The first time ever saw Grant was when he came to take command of the i army. This was at Brandywine Sta tion. We had been accustomed to see Mcclellan. Halleck, Burnside, and the other generals go about from brigade to brigade and division to division at i tended by a cloud of gorgeously uni formed staff officers, and, of course we expected that Grants arrival would have great deal of show in it. We were awaiting his arrival, knowing that he was on his way, when a freight train rolled in. There was a caboose on the end, and out jumped two men. One of them was short, stumpy man, with full brown beard. He wore a black slouch hat, tipped down on his eyes, and as he picked his way over the railroad tracks to the station soldier who had been at Fort Donelson shouted, Here's Grant, boys On the platform was General Ingalls,. the commissary gen eral of the army. and who was one of Grants classmates. He recognized
 
 for moment. Then Ingalls, invited his commander to take a seat in a four-in-hand, which was waiting. It was raining, but Grant stood awhile and looked over the turnout; then he Sot inside. and drove to headquarters General Ingalls, had provided a most magnificent dinner for the new com mander. Grant sat and ate heartily. and. after he had finished. he turned and inquired: Ingalls,, where did you get all this stuff?' The commissary general replied, with some pride, that he had it brought down from Wash ington expressly for the event. Then Grant wanted to know if the soldiers were in the habit of getting a layout like that. Upon being answered in the negative. Grant said: 'Ingalls, I have been in the habit of eating a soldiers rations. What's good enough for them is good enough for me- In gals didn't neglect to take the hint, and there were no more gorgeous ban quets after that in the headquarters of the Army of the Potomac. After this episode Grant smoked. and finally said: One more question, Ingalls,. Where did you get that four-in-hand?

 Since its invasion of the Salton Sink, and the struggle of the engineers to hold it under control, the Colorado river has found a new mouth, 20 or 30 miles southeast of the old one. The consequences of this change, says pr. D. T. MacDougal, are somewhat momentous. For one thing, the bore which formerly ran many miles up- stream, affecting both the Colorado and the Hardy rivers, will probably disap- pear, since in the new channel the water reaches the sea by a more grad ual descent and with gentler current. New mud-fiats will fringe the shore for distance of 50 miles. Eventually. it is probable, a brackish lake, 50 or 60 miles long, will be formed, into which the seepage of the Hardy river will flow; and serious disturbance of the plants and animals over an area of several hundred square miles may enSue

DROPPING FROM THE CLOUDS.

Acronaut Describes How It Feels tn
 Descend with n Parachute
 How it feels to drop from the clouds in parachute is thrillingly described in Popular Mechanics by Captain Pen fold famous Australian aeronaut. Ha says: "Glancing up at your para chute to see if the cords are disentan- gled. you grasp your trapeze rope by one hand, your cutaway line with the other, cross your legs around your trapeze bar, collect your thoughts. and pull the knife. At once the wind rush es past you, the trapeze seems not to hold your weight, you fall as if pushed. unprepared, from a high stage into the water at the baths. You look overhead to see the parachute open. the parachute cloth is dropping in a bundle to reach you as it were, but before it does, your weight tells and pulls the cords straight, the wind catches under the cloth of your can opy. you have a few anxious moments as it slowly unfolds like huge um- brella and with slight tug as if fish were running away with your fishing line you are supported like feather, and you experience a feeling of satis- faction and safety. Down you float to terra firma like a bird on outstretched wings. and if it is calm day. your descent is almost vertical at the rate of eight to ten feet a second. When nearing the ground the earth seems to rush up to meet you. and what at a height of 1000 feet seemed small box in an allotment, turns out now to be a good-sized house. You reach tho ground as if in a free drop from a height of about four feat'
