THE HERO OF CEDAR CREEK.
General Sheridan Passes Through
Wichita en- route to Fort Reno.

Gen. Sheridan, Gen. Miles, Col. Sheridan,
the generals brother, Major Corbin and
Lieut. Long, of Gen. Miles staff, arrived in
a special car by the regular Santa Fe train
Yesterday morning. Not one of them wore
q uniform nor any insignia Of rank, and
while the train lay at the union depot wait
Ing for the Frisco they strolled about upon
the platform unrecognized by any save two
or three who knew the general. An EAGLE
reporter who campaigned with the gen.
eral through they alleyof Virginia and so onto
the end of the war.approached him and said,
General, i was member Of Clusters division
during tine war, and was at Winchester,
Fishers Hill, Cedar Creek, Five Forks and
so on to the "round up" as the cattlemen
call it." The general extended his hand,
said he knew the scribe's regiment well, and
was glad to meet him.
"You were where you saw something"
said the general, "whst brought you out
here"
Being answered that the reporter strayed
out, the general asked:
"How large is this place nows'
He expressed surprise at the figures in re-
ply, and continued:
81 had camp here, this is a rich val
lev" Then suddenly remembering he said:
SIS that old Dutchman here?' meaning ex-
Mayor Greiffenstein. Il made
that Dutchman's fortune for him by COM
polling him to remain east Of the river" and
the general laughed. General" said the
reporter, "what will you do with the In
dams, will they be disarmed, can you tell
me anything about the situation mo,
s;r, can't tell you anything about it. am
sert out by the president to look the situa-
ton over and do what think best in the
premises Ifyou see me whom come back
/ will tell you all about it, allow long do
You expect to remain down there, general
81 can't tell you"
When the train reached the Douglas Ave
hue depot, crowd gathered, among them
many G. A. X. boys, who called, sheridan.
Sheridan Come out, Phil. etc. at which
the general came out upon the platform and
raised his hat. Some of the G. A. r. boys
shook hands with him and he said TO W. W.
Dill, ''God bless you, there are lots of you. F"
The general is much changed since that
memorable day when he rode his foaming
steed into the midst of demoralized army,
and soon changed an ignominous rout into
a great victory. He is yet hale and hearty,
but his closely cropped hair is iron grey and
his step has lost much of its wonted elasti-
city. Years are beginning to tell on the
great raider.
