Account of Her Interview with Preei-
dent Gr.ant.
fcntnil Appcrsnre of thr “l.ylilsn Sibyl”—Her
, Word, at the Capitol—An Introduction to Grunt,
din Impremlre Intcnrlen—The Parting.
I t know Sojourner Truth more than forty
years ngo in New England. She was then 70
years old, but seemed hardly beyond tho
yrinie and glory of her womanhood. In those
days Harriet Beecher Stowe described her us
-'the Lyliian Sibyl,” gifted with prophetic
Insight and tall and erect tike a strong and
graceful African palm tree. She would do
toore housework of the heaviest kind than
two ordinary women, and yet be one of tho
best watchers by a sickbed ut night. A sick
Uhn she lifted to the best place on his beil as
easily and tenderly as a mother would lift
tier baby, and the touch of her hand smooth
ing the pillow and stroking tho fevered brow
Was health and <piiot, while her wall, “'There,
bouey, yon’s easier now,” had a strange
|K>wer to give ease and calm.
Untrained in grammar or rhetoric, never
able to rend or write, there was a quaint dis
regard for set rule of speech in her public and
private discourse, but no fine rhetorician
could make his meaning plainer nnd few
could equal her in power of expression or cx
Uberai ice of imagery. A few years after the
Close of Hie civil war 1 went with her to the
Senate reception room in tho Capitol at
Vu.-hington. She stood beneath the center
Of its arched ceiling nnd lie deep look of her
Wonderful eyes seemed to take in tho beauty
Of pictured forms and glowing colors on its
walls, ns she said: “Did is like tho picture
tbhambera of de New Jerusalem dat dev read
At bout In de Book.” Then she looked out of
tho window and suw the poor huts of the
freed people not fur away, and raid in tender
tones: “But they don’t have deni over there.”
A great gospel of divinity and of tender hu
manity seemed spoken in two brief sentences.
Ur eat souls can move other souls.
"AS THE SPIHIT TOLU IIKIl.”
Ill the winter of 1 'd 17:! 1 spent some time
In Washington, nnd about midwinter learned
that Sojourner Truth was iu the city. Had
I not known her ways this would have
been a surprise, for the long winter’s journey
from her homo at Battle Creek, in the cen
ter of Michigan, was a serious undertaking
for a woman lieur her 100th birthday. But I
knew that she always went “as the good
Spirit told her,” and that some strong feeling
t>f duty to bo done led her to tho capital citv.
Her way opened, not long after, for some
Rood service among tho freed men nt the

In a few days Sojourner, with two ladies,

Try It One* for the Cigars.
“The newest trick on the road," re
marked a drummer, “Is a pretty sleek
one, and I know boys who have made all
their cigars ami drinks on it for several
weeks. You go into the billiard room of
the hotel, pick up a cue and begin prac
ticing. You try some fancy shots. Of
course, a lot of fellows will gather around
to look on and make remarks and catch
nnd spot the balls for you, and show you
wlmt they can do with the stick. In
this way you soon get on easy terms with
a number of young fellows. Then you in
quire if any of them has ever noticed tho
peculiar optical delusion there is about a
billiard table, and proceed to illustrate by
placing two halls within a few inches of
each other near the lower cushion. ‘Now
tlx your eyes on those two bolls,’ you say
to one of tlie bystanders, ‘ walk complete
ly around the table, all the time with your
gaze fixed on the halls, nnd as soon ns you
have completed the circuit of the table
pick up a cue and try to shoot this ball so
aa to hit those two.’ The shot Is such an
easy one, and the whole matter looks so
simple, that the bystander is quite ready
to declare liis ability to walk around the
table a dozen times, If necessary, and
make the carom afterward. lie is also
ready to wager the figure that your ‘op
tical delusion’ won’t delude him. tVhlle

eyes fixed on the two halls, you, unob

Tlie American Physiognomy.
The American physiognomy at Its best
Is often distinctly classical. One can nee
almost any day in our streets good exam
ples of tlie Greek type, and not Infre
quently among what we call tho common
people. Last summer in a temporary visit
to a Ashing village on the Sound I noticed
a young fisherman wlio’would have made
nil admirable model for an Adonis. He
was about 20 years of ago, of medium
height, with a handsome Greek head, and
a figure that despite tlie rude apparel in
which it was hid revealed a striking natu
ral grace and elegance In every movement.
I watched him with keen interest, und
imagined myself on the ^Egean shore.
It is pitiful to think that excessive ex
posure, ill-cooked food, tobacco and bad
liquor are destined only too surely to
coarsen the lines und obliterate the charm
of liis handsome face. I should have tieen
glad of an opportunity to investigate a
little further and see if liiH mind responded
to Ids shapely exterior, but could not ob
tain it. Our American land exhibits
three natural blossoms frequently, but
only among tho young. They spring fresh
nnd beautiful from tho soil, hut the sordid
cares nnd uninspiring conditions of our
civilization soon despoil them of their
charm.—Homo Journal.

While rusticutiug at old Fort Marcy this
morning, Mrs. Gamble, wife ,of the chief
engineer of the Santa Fe and Northern

It Is said Mrs. Mackay is about to display
a gorgeous toilet pieco iu the shape of a

paradise birds. Tho price of a single bird
is about forty francs, and 500 birds would
be necessary to form this strange garment,

Standing there, tall und erect while stirred

quaint way.
FINE AND SIMri.E DIONITY.
Her words came in tonesfull of deep power
fcnd tenderness, and ho listened with great in
terest and respect, and told her that ho
“hoped always to bo just to all and especially
to see that the poor and defenseless were
fairly treated.” Ills voice and manner told

tones showed how “tho bravest are the ton-

trials wore appreciated mid how much faith

the oppressed, aud he quietly, yet with much
feeling, expressed the hope that he might over
be wise and firm and never forget the inolieu-
oble rights of all.

Other. Nothing in the illustrious career of
Ceu. Grant gave mo a fuller sense of his
largeness of heart and mind than his unpre

this interview, while tho fine and simple dig

sense of lior largo womanhood. She said to

The conversation had lasted beyond the

the fit timo came to leave. The president

A Paralysed Telegrapher.
ILis probable that hail Mr. Beecher un
derstood telegraphy he might huve com
municated with Ids family after tho
stroke which rendered him speechless.
The contraction of the lingers of liis right
hand would seem to indicate the possibil
ity that he was conscious, nnd lmd ho
known how to regulate those contractions
In tho formation of telegraphic signals ho
could have thus conveyed his thoughts
while otherwise utterly powerless. I
knew pf a case some years ago In which n
telegrapher thus communicated with me,
when wo supposed him unconscious. In
holding his hand I felt a faint twitching
of the muscles of liis lingers und recog
nized telegraphic signals thus made. Ho
was perfectly conscious of what was pass
ing around him L. t unable to speak or
move u muscle, except the faint contrac
tion of the finger muscles as described.
It was a remarkable ease and unparalleled
so far us I know.—Globe-Democrat.

“Go up, thy bold head!” and were imme

tated a short time, and then, with an evi
