Below is Mrs. Johnson's name with the dates of birth and death, and the
words, "In Memory of Father and Mother." It was erected by the surviving
children.

Ulysses S. Grant's tomb is the finest mausoleum in America, and for beauty
and majesty of situation one of the finest in the world. It stands on an
eminence in Riverside Park, New York City, on the banks of the Hudson,
directly overlooking the noble river. It is about one hundred feet square
and one hundred and sixty feet high.

The building is in the Ionic style, strong and massive without a
suggestion of severity, the surrounding pillars and the dome adding grace
to its strength. Over the entrance are inscribed Grant's own words:

"Let Us Have Peace."

The inside is of Italian marble and Massachusetts granite highly polished,
with the ceiling and rotunda formed of exquisitely wrought white stucco
work. It contains two sarcophagi, holding the bodies of President and
Mrs. Grant. These are placed in a well-shaped crypt, thirty feet deep,
entered from two staircases, each of twenty marble steps. They are hewn
from one solid piece of red Massachusetts granite, and weigh ten tons
each. Two anterooms serve as repositories of Grant relics, which include a
matchless piece of Japanese embroidery presented to Mrs. Grant by the
Japanese government.

Rutherford B. Hayes rests in unostentatious simplicity in Oakwood
Cemetery, Fremont, Ohio; James A. Garfield in a bronze sarcophagus in the
magnificent monument erected by the nation at Lake View Cemetery, on the
shore of Lake Erie; Chester A. Arthur beneath a monument representing an
angel, and with a palm-leaf on his sarcophagus, at Rural Cemetery, Albany;
Benjamin Harrison at Crown Hill Cemetery, Indianapolis; and McKinley in
Canton Cemetery, Canton, Ohio, not yet honored by a national memorial, but
probably soon to be so.

MILITARY RED TAPE IN INDIA.

Mix-Up in Which the Senior Cat, the Junior Cat, and Rations Were Involved
Had to be Adjusted by the War Office.

The precision of organization and discipline that is the very foundation
of military life is always a matter of wonder and admiration to the
civilian. He may express impatience with army "red tape," yet he has a
lurking regard for this very thing which he condemns, because he knows,
vaguely, that it has a reason for being and that it is good for men
generally to be compelled to respect a silent force as powerful and
dignified as this i
