The Artillery Wins First Prize.

> The Indianapolis Light Artillery has
covered itself all over with glory.
special dispatch from New Orleans to
the Journal states that ''the Indianapolis
Battery won the first prize and the championship
of the world at the prize drill" The prize was
$500, in cash, and was officially awarded yester-
day. There is no Richardson Zouave hoax about
this. At the Mobile drill the boys were
in hard luck, and lost their place through an
unfortunate incident. On leaving here
they provided themselves with cartridges
from the arsensal, but did not think
to- try them before going into the
drill When the order to load was given it
was found that the cartridges were too large, and
would not go into the barrel, in consequence of
which they were delayed while getting new
lot, and this loss of time SO ratified them that
they broke up when the ammunition finally
arrived, and failed to show up credtably.
AT New Orleans they were pitted against the
same batteries that took part in the Mobile con-
test Captain Curtis and his men are to be con-
graduated

When Vice-presdent Hendricks was United
States senator, Mrs. Hendricks became exceed

had lost her property, and consequently was
thrown upon her own resources. In the years
that have since passed Mrs. Hendricks had lost
sight of her friend until recently Soon after
the November election Mrs. Hendricks received
a beautifully written letter from the lady stat
ing that the years since their meeting had only
added to her misfortunes. From her scanty
means she had supported an invalid sister until
her own health had failed. and there had been
no alternative but for them both to enter
charity hospital in Baltimore. She begged Mrs.
Hendricks to render her aid that she might OBJ
tain position, however small, which would be
sufficient to support them. Mrs. Hendricks at
once set about obtaining her employment. and
soon secured the place of matron of the char
women in the Treasury Department. The letter
Of thanks she received when the appointment
was made known was a most deserving tribute
to the charity work which has been so much
part of this lady's life

A Noted Police Officer.

New York Letter: The redoubtable
Capt. Williams is a candidate for the
Inspectorship made vacant by thepro
motion of Murray. The commission
ers might do worse than give it to him
Though Williams has received more
abuse in his time than any other mar
w got in New York for police work
he is really one of the best officers the
city everhad. Charges have been made
against him over and over, but none
have W. been proved, and he stands
higher to-day than ever before. The
special characteristic of Williams is to
take hold of a thing with all his might
and do it at once. There is no stop
ping to think about it. When there
is rough cork to do he is as
ready with his fists as with his
club. He knows the manly art as
well as any trained pugilist, and ALLOW
from him is as sure to fell as if it came
from the big Boston bruiser himself.
Williams cleared the whole tribe of
bunko thieves out of his precinct with
out ever using a club. Hepreferred to
grab a couple of them, one with each
hand, knock their heads together like
two cocoanuts, then give each a kick
and tell them if he ever caught them
in his bailiwick again he would break
their necks. A few nights ago Manager
McCaull sent for a policeman to drive
off a lot of ticket SPECTATORS who had
taken possession OF the sidewalk In
front ofhis theater. Williams respond
ed in person instead of sending a man.
He ordered the spectators to clear
out, and as they were in no hurry
about it he grabbed a couple of them
at a rush, flung them sprawling into
the street and scared the others of on
d dead run.
