Whether Mrs. Stowe was granted
the privilege of this privacy during
the time of her composition the story
does not say. but one of her friends
remembered to have heard her say
at the time she sent Uncle Toms

made enough on the book to pay the
price of a new silk dress she would
be satisfied
The success of this book we're fair
ly staggering. Whatever we may
think of it as a literary production
and whether or not we believe the
picture Of life in the South il de-
picted to have been true, it must be
conceded that it was the most potent
novel in modern literature.

sit was in 1897 that the late Gen.
eral A. L. Chetlain, of Chicago, made
this statement to me. Even as he
spoke I could see, as I thought a
sort of dreamy, interpretive look in
his eyes, exactly as though he was
again calling up the figure of the
obscure leather merchants clerk in
Galena at the time the war broke
out.
General Chetlain was elected cap
tain of the Galena company, which
was first to respond in that section
of Illinois to President Lincoln's call
for $4,000 volunteers. With the COM
pany, Captain Grant, rather ex-Cap-
tain Grant-for he had resigned from
the United States army some years
earlier-was much occupied.
1--WE should have elected Captain
Grant our own captain" continued
General Chetlain, 'if he had been
willing to accept our offer. He told
me privately that he thought he was
qualified for a higher Office than that
of captain. He said to me. however,
that he would undertake to drill our
company and would give several
hours to the work of drillmaster. ]
remember very well when he APP
peared in one of the fields of the
suburbs of Galena marching there
with our company to give it the first
instruction in company drill. My at
tention was fixed upon peculiar
oyercoat which Captain Grant wore.

The politician was not referring to

Inc most celebrated woman VINO
was ever born on this day is, with
out doubt. Harriet Beecher Stowe,
who was born in Litchfeld. Con-
necticut ninety-eight years ago to-
day. At the age of q she went with
her family to Cincinnati, o., where
four years later she married an i'm
pecunious minister and professor,
Calvin e. Stowe. Upon her marriage
she settled down to the humdrum of
house wifely duties without the
slightest premonition of her subse-
quent literary fame.
She had a large family of children
and her life was crowded with about
the same anxieties and duties that
fill the lives of other women in her
position. Occasionally when the
family purse grew lighter than usual
she would write a story for some
magazine. The success of one Of
these caused her husband to urge
that she become a literary woman
in good earnest" "Then," she said,

An uncertain day, according to as
trology, which finds in the configura
tions both good and evil promise.
Neptune rules powerfully in opposi-
ton to the plans of mortals. The
maleflc influence of this variable
planet is held to encourage fraud and
treachery, to produce confusion and
deception. 1t is believed also to in
tensify a desire for luxuries and for
whatever gratifies extravagant tastes
There is a warning in the stars
against peculiar or mysterious per
sons who gain confidence during the
sway of Neptune. Those who preach
novel cults or make appeal to the
superstitions gain favor, it is be-
lieved, while the planet is in adverse
aspect.
