TURNED BATTLE AND SMOKED Incident Brought Home Gifts of Thousands of Choice Cigars and Confirmed His Habit of Smoking. DETROIT, Mich., Nov. 2.-Major General Fred D. Grant who is pre siding at the court martial now in session at Fort Wayne, in the wes tern suburbs of this city, said to some friends here that the cigar which had initiated his father, the late Presi dent U. S. Grant, into the tobacco smoking habit, really figured quite strongly in the winning of the battle of Fort Donaldson. Speaking of this incident, General Grant said: , "My father was in conference with Admiral Foote on the latter's flag ship and had just accepted a cigar from the admiral when word came to him that the left flank of his forces wis being repulsed. Hurring ashore and galloping on a fleet horse to the battlefields, he succeeded in rallying his forces so completely that chaos was turned into victory.

Phone.Mai" IT'S A GOOD THING TO REFER to the reputation of a store before making any important purchases thereia. Before you buy is the time to look up the matter. Ask questions. Find out if the store you intend pa tronizing keeps its pledges. Be sure that you learn if it sells the qualities it claims; if it treats ts . customers tonestly and fairly, then, if satisfied, buy there. Do all the asking you wish about us among your friends, and that you will result in your com ing here regularly. , Come in and see our $125 Kitchen fcange. from i mouth. The dispatches from the front told how father had come on- fto the battlefield 'cool and collec ted, and peacefully smoking a long black cigar." "People who read the story began sending congratulationes and pre sents of cigars. Tens of thousands of cigars came and my father smoked many of them. It made a confirmed smoker of him. But he did not smoke as many cigars as people imagined he did. Sometimes one cigar that he would frequently re light would last him from breakfast to luncheon. It was the fact that he almost constantly held a cigar be tween his fingers that made people describe him as a great smoker." General Grant said that his father tried to acquire the smoking habit at West Point just because the rules forbade smoking. His attempts at smoking while he was a cadet, however, made him very sick" and when he left West Point he practi cally gave them up. During the Mex ican War, General Grant said, his fa ther took a liking to the Mexican cigars; and found that they agreed with him, but when he returned to the North he again dropped the hab it of smoking, to resume it after the Fort Donaldson incident. iilSllSMlMli THE BIG STORE , - Foley's Honey and Tar clears, the air passages, stops the irritation in the throat, soothes the infamed mem branes, and the most obstinate cough disappears.

The motive for the crime was robbery and the man's throat was cut by his murderers. His clothing was torn off by them in ef forts to find if money was secreted on it, but they overlooked several hnndred dollars hidden in a pocket.
