Belongings of General Grant ' - Awaken Memories of Days ' When Iron Man Broke Confederacy. WASHINGTON, . Aug. 1$.--The Ora&d Army ncampmant . will hold Siay honors for the Civil war veterana bijt apart from the grand review to be held here September 27-October 2, aa hiatorlc echo of that other review of fifty yeara ago It la doubtful If toy plan will exceed In emotional value a visit to the National Museum's exhibit of flags, weapons, uniforms and other relics of the great war. For every veteran who marches along historic Pennsylvania avenue, a link in the chain which connects his twilight yeara with the immortal army of bis youth, there will be some predominating memory of war days to keep . step with him to the call of fife and drum. And over in the National museum
the big moment of his life may again vision itself In memory, that, sparklike, will flash . out its glimpse of a long-ago soldier boy who was daring enough to 'follow wherever a flag led the way. From Sumpter to Appomatox the museum sketches the war by speens of many records, the most unusual of which is a i bullet-riddled stump, which tells the story of Spotfylvania Court House. : ' Oak Recalls History. To the old soldier who had his share in that battle, the stump means something more than so much dead wood. He sees it a giant oak, spreading its centuries of leafy shade over those
Confederate entrenchments. But he.
can see it right now, that poor old tree,; cut down by enemy musket balls during an attempt to recapture the works. The battered ' chunk has passed the gulf of half a century. i Ulysses 8. Grant will live in their snemorles until the last pulse beat of the last boy In blue, and the belongings of the commanding general of the Irmy will be of especial Interest to yery soldier who fought under him i the Civil war. ' Reviews Grant's Career. Shoulder straps, buttons, hat ornaments and epaulets, grouped in the order in which they were earned, serve as .so many, stepping stones to the heights of military glory to which the hero attained, and there is a wargrimed uniform which looks as if it had gone through more than enough to tarn the "gold-fringed epaulets of th general of the army" which blaze In a gorgeous heap near by. The Grant collection is large enough to fill four great . cases, and so varied in character as to represent almost every quarter r of the globe. The smallest exhibit is a jade cup, the size and color , of a wild duck's egg, and not much thicker than its shell. It was a gift from the regent of China at the time of General Grant's visit to the Orient. The largest specimen is a magnificent buffet, composed of cloudtinted onyx veined with a dozen colers, and mounted in dull, carved brass. The citizens of Pueblo, Mexico, took this method of expressing "their appreciation of their warrior guest." Though the equistrlan statute of Grant will not be completed in time for - the encampment, a bronze Sherman on a bronze steed will figure in the coming review. The museum also recalls the vaHant Sherman with his service sword used at Shlloh, and a breastpin made of buttons from the Uniform worn by him on his march to the sea. That there are airquakes, caused by he explosion of meteors In th eatmoshere and entirely independent of earthquakes, is a theory advanced by an 'eminent English astronomer.
' SYNOPSIS. " " ; Leslie Kerne a governess,' goes to walk by the sea' and Is spoken to by a man she does not know. ae is rescued from his attentions by Victor
Steele, a sergeant In the British amy, whom, she later marries. She finds married life wearisome and refuses to
follow-Steele to Egypt.' Then she hears of his death and conceals the fact that
ahe Is his widow. She meets Oswald
Varney and agrees to go on a picnic
with him and Rose Darley, her chum.
CHAPTER VI.
She lowered the glass and pretended
to have been examining the poise of
her hat. She bit her lips nervously
and hoped be could not see the redness of her cheeks.
VI believe he knows you," ventured Miss Darley, who had seen the man's
smile.
"I met ' him once years ago," said Leslie, in a low tone. "It's hardly possible that he remembers me. ' If he does he will introduce himself. Let's
go now." -. v-
The two girls rose. Miss Darley somewhat reluctantly, and moved toward the stairs. Leslie, she hardly knew why, steadily diverted her gaze from the man at the next table as they
passed hlnf by. As they descended the stairs her friend turned sharply on her.
"You are a fool," she began, then, hearing a step behind her, checked herself snd swung, out at the door, shutting
Leslie In.'
The man had followed them. "Allow me," he said, politely, passing his hand
over Leslie s shoulder to open the door,
He held it open for her to pass and
looked Intently In her face. "Why
didn't you want me to speak to you?"
ne asxea. "I didn't think you remembered me,'
faltered the girl, turning to face him
as she passed into the street. His eyes met her with a quizzical ex pressipn. "Oh, . but .of course I did,"
he said in a tone that would not have
carried conviction to most people; perhaps be. felt this, for he at once asked, "Are you going up Bond street? - As your friend has disappeared, perhaps I may come with you ?" He did not wait for her leave," but took-up a position beside her, falling Into step with her. She was immensely glad at their meeting, and only feared that looking into her eyes he might know it. He could little imagine the glamour with which a young girl's fancy bad first invested him and which had taken on an evermore golden hue the past six years. She glanced around at him shyly. Her childish impression of him had been vague. She saw now a smartly dressed man of about forty. She noticed that his hair was gray about the temples, that below each of his eyes a myriad of tiny lines formed a fine network on his florid skin. His chin was square and obstinate, his nose inclined towards aquiline, his lips beneath a dark brown mustache flecked with gray showed red and prominent. Other men would have put him down as eminently a man of the world who had Indulged a good deal In. field sports and was often in the open air. "I am going to walk across ' the park," she informed him, halting at the corner of Grosvenor street. "I live at Notting Hill." He Makes a Gallant Remark. to Leslie. "The further off tho better," he replied, "so long as I may accompany you." He did not attempt to disguise his approval as he looked at her. She smiled and turned away her head. He began at once to talk about the theatres and to compare impressions of the plays 'they had both seen. He told her that he liked jolly plays no problems for him. It struck her that he had found life Itself very Jolly and not at all perplexing. He had been yachting a good deal that summer, he told her, and plunged at once Into some amusing anecdotes in which the laugh was often against himself. He observed cheerfully that London seemed to be filling up again and asked her if she would remain in town during the winter. She laughed. "I am always in town,"
ahe replied "except for a fortnight in the summer. I work for my living. I .may as well tan yon I. am an assistant at a library ; In Bond street." : ' 8be .thought he looked at her searchlngly. I shall have to form the' habit of reading.! he said. "Perhaps if I come to your place every day yon will be able to advise men "how to Improve my mind. I knew a man who made a large fortune and attributed bis success entirely to an excellent work on 'Self Help' and to CasseU's 'Popular Educator.' " Leslie remember that her Uncle Jim had presented her mother with one of the volumes referred to, end smiled ruefully. She liked her companion's light talk; she felt a certain satisfacat being seen with him in the park. -(To Be Continued.)
ATTORNEY'S RULING DISCARDS ONE BID
A ruling made by Attorney Alonzo Gardner of Richmond and Attorney DaJe of Winchester will prevent Isaac Beeson from getting the contract for the . Nettle Creek ditch.

County Surveyor Peacock, who had charge of the letting of the contract.
will award It to the Chicago firm, in accordance with the attorneys' ruling.
