General SherIdau's approaching War
TIagc.
Gen. Sheridan has at last been
compelled to make his first surrender,
and this to a young lady who was
but a little school girl when he was
winning the victories TINT made his
fame. 1t is autheritativeIy an
nouncCd that the General will be
married the first week in June, to
Miss Irene Rucker, daughter of Gen.
D.. II. Rucker of his staff. The nup-
tinls are to be solemnized with all the
solemnity and splendor Of the Roman
Catholic Church, Bishop Foley pre-
siding, If, indeed, the new Car
dlnal does not himself tie the silken
knot.
Gen. Sheridan is now. forty-two
years old. OF the bride the Chicago
Post and Nail says: "She is a beau
tiful brunette, rather tall, of that
willowy, dropping form considered
essential to beauty of the highest
grade, her expression is animated,
sparkling, with a slight touch OF
audacity in expression, which is
charmingly modified by maidenly
modesty, and at every change of
countenance the blush of a sweet
inner consciousness lights up her
lovely face; and her complexion is
creamy, with a faint rose tint Of
health and youth her eyes large
and brilliant, and eXquisitely soft,
and her hair is a dark glossy brown.
Miss Rucker Is tho second daughter
Of Gen. Daniel Henry Rucker, of this
city, and is now about nineteen years
old. She graduated from the Con-
vent Of st. Leonard's, Philadelphia,
and is by her religious faith a Ro-
man Catholic. She has the finest
education that 1t is possible to receive
in America, and her natural gifts are
many and varied. She has been
acquainted, for years, as a school girl,
and later, as a society young lady,
with Gen. Sheridan, her betrothed
husband, and the match is considered
by the friends Of both parties rs
eminentIy suitable"

eve spilled it, and had to go back
and I'LL the bucket again." was the
prompt reply; but the bright, noble face
was shade less bright, less noble than
usual, and the eyes dropped beneath the
teachers gaze.
The teacher crossed the room and stood
by another, who had been Willie's COM
panion.
Freddy, were you not gone for the
water longer than was necessary
For an instant Freddy's eyes were
fixed on the floor, and his face wore a
troubled look. But it was only for an
instant-he looked frankly up to his
teachers face.
"Yes, ma'am," he bravely answered;
"we met little Harry Braden and stopped
to play with him, and then we spilled the
water on purpose and had to go back.
Little friends, what was the difference
in the answers of the two boysl Neither
of them told anything that was not
strictly true. Which one of them do
you think the teacher trusted most fully
after that 7 And which was the happier
of the two?

Cabinet or ParlOr Organs.

These have become the most popular
OF large musical instruments. There
are now about two hundred and fifty
makers of them in the United States,
who produce more than forty thousand
organs per annum. Most of these are
very poor Instruments. This is naturally
so, because there are few articles in the
manufacture of which SO much saving
can be made by the use of inferior, i'm
properly prepared material, and inferior
workmanship, and yet which, when fin
ished, show SO little difference to the
average purchaser. The important parts
of an organ, made as well as they can
be, cost two or three times as much as
If made as low as possible. Yet, when
the organ is done, it is not easy from
casual hearings to tell the difference be-
tween the best and q very poor one. Es-
pecially when shown by one who knows
how to cover up defects, to one who has
not special skill in such matters, tits not
difficult to make poor organ appear a
good one.
The temptation to makers, then, to
produce, Mt fraction of the cost, an or
gan which will sell almost as we'll as a
good one, is almost irresistible. Hence
the fact that so few good organs are made
and SO many poor ones, and that the
country is flooded with peddlers and
dealers selling these poor organs, which
pay such large profits. The buyer of
the poor organ does not fail to find out
his mistake after while. The thin,
reedy tone of his cheap organ soon be-
comes offensive; it works noisily and
roughly, is constantly out of ORDER an d
becomes useless by the time really
good instrument would have been get
ting into It's prime. A good organ ought
to last generation, at least; n poor one
may last five years, with considerable
tinkering, or may break down much
sooner.
There is one safe way. Get q genuine
production of one of the very best makers
and you cannot go astray. Among these
undoubtedly stands pre-eminent the
Mason & Hamlin Organ Co., whose
organs are so well known that other
makers are generally content to claim
that they can make as good an organ as
the Mason & Hamlin. They invented
and introduced the Cabinet or Parlor
Organ in its improved form, started with
and have always closely adhered to the
policy of making only the best work,
have shown such skill as has given their
organs the highest reputation, not only
i'll this country but also in Europe. At
the Great Exposition at Vienna, in COM
petition with eighty of the best makers
in the world they obtained the highest
medals. Te enumerate the competitions
at which they have received similar
honors would be to give list of the
fairs at which they have exhibited; and
to mention the prominent musicians who
recommend their organs as unequaled
would really be to give very good list
of the most illustrious musical names in
the country, with good representation
in Europe.
One who obtains Mason & Hamlin
Cabinet Organ need have no doubt that
he has the best instrument of IT'S class
which can be made.-NeW York Lnde-
