Ever since tho visit of the Grant

sea with thatof Miss Jennie Flood,
the daughter of big bonanza elicit'.
During ihu slay of the general and
his family here, they were much in
the company of the Flood family,
and were shown great attention by
them, being entertained at the city
mansion of the silver king at his
country residence, anil shown about
the country even as far as the Yosc-
mite. The young folks were iintn-
rully brought a great deal into earl,
other’s company, nnd seem mutual
ly to enjoy it. Their entinued and
frequent association soon attracted
attention and set the tongue of the
gossips wagging. Their simplest
movements were noted with eager
cariosty aiul expectancy, and his
driving out with her. dancing with
her, or even handing her to a carri
age sent a flutter of excitement
over the sensitive surface ol upper
crust society. From talking of them,

ill delicate innuendo and sly raile
When the two families drove from
Senator Sharon’s mansion, at Bel
mont, io the palatial residence of
Ihc Floods, at Menlo park, society’s
gossipy vauguaid slyly but meta
phorically poked young Ulysses un
der the fifth rib with its jocular
first finger, and nsked him how he
thought the house would suit him,
and looked wonderfully sly and
knowing. The young people, how
ever, kept their own counsel, if
they had any to keep at this time,
ami society could get no furl her
than asserting that they were deep
ly in love with each other: that
their engagement was certain if not
already made, and their marriage
was only a question of time. These
stories remained in a cliry-alis state
of mere rumor until after tiie
Grants left for the east. They
assumed a color of confirma
tion when the Floods followed
them a few weeks later and joined
them in the east, attending the
Chicago Convention, where it
was expected Grai|t wotilil
he nominated for the Pres
idency for the third time. On
their return society was gladdened
by ihc authoritative announcement
of the betrothal ol the second son
ofilie illustrious house with the
daughter of the magnificently
wealthy one. Even their motives
.... , .» were freely canvassed, hers being
ladies whs are itivniids, or who, if | set dowli by ill-natured gossips to
in health and in need of “pin j vaulting ambition, Ids to sordid de-
money,” ean te exhibited and sold | sire; and it was predicted I lint if
, i Grunt tailed of the Presidency, or
‘ “ , . i Flood gol cornered on and pinched
Covington votes her grand jury i j n s i oc t i |j,,. match would lie In-ok-
to see liow it stands op the guberna-j en oil. No announcement of this
' character ever created more interest
in this country. It was Hie subject
wedding of Ills brother Jesse, who
will lead Miss Lizzie Chnpman to
tho altar some time this month, ns
well as to gratify a romantic long
ing io ho with his betrotl cd n few
Ull- <i'iiI days. Society was confirm
ed in Hie Miter conjecture by his
con-taut nitciidniicc on his betroth
ed, and cried in ecstaey : “Oh, how
nice and romantic !” mid society’s
fair daughters envied Miss Jennie's
tot. When a few days after his ar
rival it iv ns mi noil need that Mrs. nnd
Miss Flood had gone to the elegant
Summit mansion of Hie Widow
HopUin* in the r-ietlas, nnd that
Ulys-es. Junior, was to loin thorn
there and pass tho remaining days
of his brief sojourn hero in that
sylvan scene among the soughing
pines, tiie limpid streams, the cloud
capped hills and all that sort of ro
mantic thing, society was blissfully
exalted. It was the last sweet
dream before tho awakening cold
douche of disappointment. Young
Grant lingered in the city instead
of seeking sylvan Syrrian shades ;
then lie disappeared, going East as
suddenly, unexpectedly, unaccount
ably as his coming, file bonanza
people returned to the city, Ihc
magnificent diamond ring disap
peared trout Miss Jennie’s finger,
and society was paralyzed with the
sudden announcement that the en
gagement had been finally and def
initely broken off. As soon ns so
ciety caught its L-reath again it be
gan to inquire for the reasons, but
got nothing satisfactory in that way
oxeept the unquestionable fact that
the banns were oil’. Upon the as
tounding result all parties were
agreed, but there is n wide differ
ence in tiie stalemcntsof the friends
of the two parlies regarding the
causes which produced tho nuptial
catastrophe. Tho version of Miss
blood’s friends is that tiie former
and her mother went Io the moiin
tains with the understanding that
young Grant would join them in
day or two. Instead of doing so
lie wrote to say that lie was sick
and could not come until the next
dav, neglecting to add that his tna-
lady was sickness of his bargain.
The next day lie wrote that his ill
ness continued and he' must
again postpone his coming. And so
from day to day.
until the story reached Mis*
Jennie's ears that her Ulysses was
industriously flirting with other
women diwn here. Then she got
out her sal*volatile and wept, and
said lie did not care for her and
wauled to marry tier only because
of her money, and she vowed he
should never have a single silver
brick, mil even a solitary scad, ami
she broke off the engagement. _ The
version of young Grant’s friends
is that the wedding was the fancy of
the old folks and llmt they laiked
their children into ihc engagement,
while their own inclinations were
not over ardent. After obligingly
ami filially plightino faith they
separated. Ulysses going cast and
falling desperately in love with an
other girl. After struggling loyally
against the passion for months
without weakening its force—in
fact, fighting it out on this line all
sum liter, according to the family
proverb—he resolved to come here
in the full anil state tlip cast; fairly.
This, they say, was his sudden
errand here, and lie performed his
duty. -
Which version is correct it is
hard to determine at present, society
here being very much divided upon
the question, ami only certain of
one momentous faet that the much
talkcd-of engagement is broken
off.

A News reporter was in-tailed to
find out the facts, which furnished

There was quite a crowd in tho
saloon, talking politics. Tho shab

seemed to lake nil absobing inter

“Hancock wilt get ninc-lcnths of

“You are right,” said the seedy
mail, in a loud, and sonorous voice,
dapping the speaker on the shoul
der. “You just bet we will scoop
’em. 1 am an ex-federal myself,
in I’ll vote for old Hancock.”
The attention of the crowd was
directed to the patriotic soldier.
,‘Were you ill Hancock’s corps?”
Gentlemen, said the seedy man,
running Ids arm through the hole
iu his hat, “I have voted the Re
publican ticket ull my life, but
next November my vote goes for

like his politics, and they may say
ho puts on style, hut when a gener
al of the United States army gets
off his horse to help me when I am

the crowd.

enthusiasm several times.
“Hand out some of those high

took half a dozen.
“I’ve a great notion,” said anoth-
enthusiust, holding Hancock man
at arms’ length and surveying him
from top to bottom. “I’ve a great
mind to make you a present, of n
new suit of clothes.”
“Were you badly wounded?"
asked another enthusiast.
“1 was lying on the blood-stained
field of battle, slippery with human
gore, weak and faint from the loss
of blood, with my leg shattered by

shal Fitzsi moiis’ bond enme up. Tho
Attorney General stated, ns hereto
fore reported in Ihiscoi-respondcnce,
that some of Mr. Fitzsimons’bonds
men wanted to be relieved, nnd that
the Mni-sluil had executed another
bond. A New York paper has open
ed up another nttack 0,1 the Georgia
Marshal. It states that the bonds
men wanted to be relieved because
of tha manner in which the Georgia
Marshal’s office is eonductod, on ac
count of frauds on the government
in the various ways in which Mr.
Fitzsiinous has so' frequently been
charged of employing to fill his
own coffers. The specifications and
the charges are the same as huve
frequently been made, and from
which he has frequently been exon
erated upon investigation by the
Department of Justice. The great
er potion of the printed charges
now brought out are worded iden
tically as those which brought out
the Inst investigation; in fact they
arc -the same old charges witli hut
little pretense at revamping.
When Marshal Fitzsimmons was
here about making a new bond this
matter came up. He went to the
Treasury officers nnd inquired of
them if there was any of Ills ac
counts that were in the least wrong,
01-about which there was the slight
est suspicion. As a result he wrote
letter to the Attorney-General
mentioning his interviews with the
Treasury folks, and stati.ng that
they had nothing of his accounts
“litiug up” or thought that anything
was wrong. As a result the 'Attor
ney-General allowed the execution
of another bond. Tlte Attorney-
General said to-day that he saw no
reason to take any further action in
regard to Marshal Fitzsimmons. It
wns true, lie said^lhnt some charges,
the same as have been made before,
had been filed against him. He
would take them up at his leisure,
and if he saw anything in them that
would demand another investiga
tion lie would order it. It is, per.
haps, unucces.-ai-y to say that the
charges are ma'de bv Collector
Clark and his subordinates. The
life of a Democratic office-holder
under a Republican administration

Aii account from that city tells us
that the first thing oi|e notioos ou
entering the freezing room of the
factor)- is the intense cold, then tiie
smnll heaps of suow lying around,
ami, at last the shining masses of
soli'd ice, made up of blocks sixteen
feet high, thirty feet long, and over
a foot thick. These immense cakes
arc frozen on plates of steel, which
are hollow pipes containing the
freezing agent, ammonia running
through them. The water falls in
di-ups from the roof, and freezes as
it falls, thus forming immense
bjocjt. another freezing room
tiie sight was beautiful beyond de
scriptien, uncumbered columns of
ice sixty feet high, 011 a frozen floor,
while from above came splashing
drsps of water, falling as steapdjly
as summer rain. These icicles sur-
1-ouiid.hoUaw iron oolumus through
whioh tho ammonia passes,-and
freezes the falling that comes from
the roof. The icicles in a week or
two, unite, and in a little longer
time, they form a solid block
of ice 2,000 tons weight. This is
then out liy iuc plows and saws in
tii blocks fit for sale. The mode of
inuking ice is this: Liquor amount
is placed in two boilers which arc
heated by steam. Steam pipes nre
used for heating tiie boilers, because
it is necessary to keep tho tempera
lure uniform and steady. The ef-
fcot of the heat is to generate amn-
11 iu gas, which passes from the boil
ers into a dryer, where all remain
ing moisture is removed, from
the dryer the gass passes fo a con
denser, where if Is subjected to

Tb* Baby Carriage In (he Mall.
A baby carriage in the hall.
The happiest piece of furniture
that any house can boast, always
making an honorable exception in
favor of the cradle.
The baby carriage means a home.
Without it only a place to slay at.
It meads a “dear, little dimpled
darling”—that makes suiishii.e all
tho time—when it hasn't got the
colic.
it means a happy mother, whoso
life is filled with all tender care, all
sweet responsibilities, all wonder
ful hope for tho future.
It inenns a father who holds his
head up among men with the grand
est dignity that any man may
know.
To mother it is “Baby.”
To father it is “My boy.”
The baby carriage in the hall
means all the wealth of rosy hours
as mother sings lullaby songs—per
haps,
“Huali mr desr, lie still, and slumber,
lit Ij angel* guard thy bed.”
When all the time she is the angel
that God appointed to gnard it, as
none of all high heaven’s host could
do.
It means a world of plans and
projects which all center in that cnc
‘little life.
It means a father that studies his
bank balance with wonderful dili
gence, for “my son must have a good
education, and a good start iu life,”
you know.
And lie goes home and catches
tho laughing toddler up, reddens
the dimples with his whiskers and
then putting sturdy little twelve
month's old on his feet, sets him at
his a, b, c of|walking, addressing
him with comical diguity, “Well,
Governor, where shall we go now ?”
And although be only calls him
“Governor,” the mother’s heart says
—and the father wouldn’t deny it
were she to put the words—that
more likely it would be President,
in that dim, beautiful and certainly
very grand future.
Her choice, though, would be
that be should be a good man and a
happy one.
That baby carriage iu the hall
means a good deal, docs it not?
It means more than can be told.
If you have such a piece of furni
ture in use you know all about it.
If you haveu’t, it’s a waste of raw
material to bother with you—
Wheeling Leader.

wood, and many others of that class,
have given so much of their time to
discussing the important matter of
female education, that it would seem
as if, were the girls trained at home,
in about the following manner, the
wise heads would have something
else to talk and write about. Teach
them thoroughly the following im
portant things:
Self-reliauce and independence.
How. to make bread and cook
well.
How to make shirts-
Not to woar false hair.
Not to powder or paint.
To wear thick warm shoes.
To wash and iron clothes.
To make their own clothes.
That a dollar is only n hundred
cents.
To darn stockings and sew on
buttons.
To say no and mean it, or yes and
stick to it.
To wear calico dresses and not be
ashamed of them.
That a gQud, rosy romp is worth
fifty consumptives.
To regard the morals and not the
money of their beaux.
To keep a house in neat order,
with everything in Rs place.
Tha; the more one lives within
one’s income, the more one will
save.
To have nothing to do with in
temperate and dissolute young men.
That tight lacing ought to be pre
vented by the law, as opium smok
ing is in China.
That the farther one gets beyond
his income, the nearer one gets to
the poor-house.
That a reliable young man with
good business qualities is worth a
dozen loafers, in fine harness.
Teach them every day some item
of dry, hard, practical common
sense, and they wilt yet find time
for idealism.
That any amount of tight lacing
and pinching of corns cannot im
prove a form that the Almighty
made in his own image.
Give them, if possible, a good,
substantial education, and as niauy
of the accomplishments as you can
afford, but never neglect their home
training.

A True story.
Yesterday aftoruoou two men ac
costed a nine-rear old hoy on the
corner of Twenty-fourth street and
Six Avenue and requested that he
wheel a baby carriage, valued at
(10, which was standing in front of
a carriage store in the black, to No.
53 East Eighteenth street, promising
to give him twenty-five cents foi
ble labor. The youngster did as he
was bid. When he ‘reached Eigh
teenth street and Broadway he was
met by the men, one of them taking
charge of the carriage aud tho oth
er of the boy. The Utter told the
boy to go into a gin mill with him
uni) lie would pay him the quarter.
While the boy’s back was turned
the miln slipped out of the side
door.
The boy after waiting two hours
returned to Hie store from whence
lie had taken \h» carriage and de
manded Ids money. The propt-ie
tor of tha place, who hail in tin-
meantime discovered the removal
of Hie carringe, was no little sur
prised at tiie Jorcliiu’s request, but
granted if, saying that though he
really stole tho carriage lie was bot
to Ida mo for It nml ought to he
paid for his tro-.Vle. Ilad that boy
