and Wethersfield troops on the camp of
the murdered Pequods or Pequots, says
u recent issue of the Hartford (Conn.)
Times. That campaign saved the Con-
necticut colony. 1t was in 1637-the 5th
of June-and il was the 25th anniver-
sary of that now little thought of but
really mOmentous enterprise that the
historical society will celebrate by Wis
iting the ground where the warhke Pc
quots were practically exterminated.
Mason went from Hartford. He took
with him a fighting force of sixty men
the larger part of Hartford. Sailing
down fifty miles to the sound. he turned
eastward, and in due time companies of
the Pequots at Groton and New London
saw the coming foe, and got ready to
give him warm reception. But the
white men sailed by. They showed the
Pequots that they were afraid to attack
so terrible a foe; and, therefore, they
had jolly drunken celebration of this
proof of their unconquerable character,
while Mason's sails disappeared off on
the eastern horizon, near Watch Hill.
! AT that time there was not u white man
living on the east side of the Cunnec-
ticut river; from the river to Cape Cod
allswas trackless wilderness.
While the Pequots were gathering at
their two forts on a height in the woods
not more than a mile or so from the
present village of Mystic, to have a
roaring night of it, Mason and his fell
low avengers Of their murderous atroci-
ties had landed in the country of the
Narragansetts, and, aided by guides
from that warlike tribe foes of the
Pequots), they moved hurriedly on,
westward through the woods, to the
camp of Sassacus and his jubilant Pc
quots. The Narragansetts, themselves
the conquerors of other tribes and the
terror of the Plymouth colony, were
afraid of the bloody Pequots, and on
nearing the Pequot forts they pointed
the way for the whites and SUNK back.
Mason fell upon the foe without mercy.
The Pequots were practically eXtermi
mated. A remnant of that ugly tribe,
with the noted Sassacus, fleeing
through the woods, finally reached the
country of the dreaded Mohawks, who
afterward killed Sassacus. Guided by
Uncas, a Mohegan chief, OF Pequot
blood, the whites got upon the trail of
the main body of the fugitives in Fair
field county, and there was bloody work
of it. Uncas cut off the head of one
chief and stuck it up on IA tree-and the
place has ever since been called
Sachems Head. 1t was a dark and
bloody time, but it left the harassed col
ony at peace.

Chicago 3, Omaha 4.

CHICAGO, June 1l,-[Special Telegram to
Tue BEE. l-Unfortunate errors lost Omaha
the game. The Maroons made the same num-
Der of errors, but by good luck they did not
prove expensive, while the errors Of Cooney
in the first inning proved costly. 1t was a
good game, however, and well worth seeing.
The Maroons made eight hits and the
Omahas made the same number, but the
lucky Maroons' hits were to the best advant-
age, while the visitors failed to profit by
theirs, although there was a double and a
triple among them. The fielding was really
good and the game was equal to many that
the league considers first class. Hengle
made a bad break in the eighth inning, when
he let Burns score the only run credited to
the visitors. But for this they would have
been whitewashed Clarke, who pitched for
the Omahas was released from the Chicago
league team and much was expected of him.
He did not fulfill expectations, however, as
the Maroon batsmen got away with eight
hits, only one being a double. He only
struck out three men, while Dwyer struck
out SIX. The score:

General Sheridan.

Chicago Tribune: The grade of gen.
eral of the army of the United States
has been conferred upon three military
men previous to General Sheridan.
George Washington was the first gem
eral. BY act Of congress the grade was
revived, in order that it might be con-
ferred upon Ulysses S. Grant. After
General Grants retirement and death
the rank was bestowed upon William
Tecumseh Sherman. General Sher-
mans retirement from the army, Han
cock having died, left but one living
man whose military exploits fairly en-
title him to the distinguished honor of
succeeding TO the rank of the three il
lustrious chieftains named ,and SO far IS
the present generation is concerned the
grade of general will probably die with
Philip Fl. Sheridan. OF his services
meriting the title there can be no ques-
tion, and the universal recognition Of
this fact, no less than the prompt and
united action of congress in passing
Senator Farwell's bill promoting him to
the highest military rank in the nation
next to that of the chief executive, must
have touched the heart of the veteran
soldier as he lay on his bed suffering
battling heroically with the common en-
emy of mankind. The scene when his
commission as general was brought to
the dying hero of "A hundred battles
was pathetic in the highest degree and
can hardly be thought of without thrill
of mingled emotions. In the simple,
unaffected manner characteristic of him
he turned his face TO the wall, tears
camo to his eyes, and in a broken voice
he expressed his gratitude at this last
mark of confidence and affection on the
part of his sympatizing countrymen.
Who shall say that it did not nerve him
anew with his contest with death ana
give him a premonitiOn, hope, il not
and assurance that he should live TO
enjoy the honor SO willingly
conferred upon him by a
grateful and admiring people? Certain
it is that he soon began to rally wonder
fully. AT this writing it is, of course,
impossible to say what wifi be the issue,
but the heart of a nation goes out to the
hero of Winchester and Five Forks,
and its JOY at the recovery and restora-
uon to health of the general OF the
army of the United States, if such event
be within the providence of God, Will
be made manifest TO Phil Sheridan with
hearhness and sincerity that will
more than recompense him for his suf-
| ferings when he walked in the valley
OF the shadow of death.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, June Special Tele-
gram to THE BEE. st Paul and Minneapo-
lis to-day played off their tie game Of May
"a. The game at Minneapolis recently, it
was stated was play-off of the tie, being a
postponed game To-day's game was marked
by hard hitting by both teams and was won
by the home team in the fifth inning when
they found Nicholson for four singles, a
double and a home run, which with two er-
rors, as many passed balls and three stolen
bases yielded seven runs. Umpire Fessen-
den is suffering from a severe cold, being un-
able to speak above whisper, and as Umpire
Brennan was on the grounds to-day the
double system was given trial, Brennan
calling balls and strikes and Fessenden CIV
ing the base decisions. The game passed off
without kick and everyone voted the sys-
tenn great success. The score:

way to a real enjoyment of life, and that
human intercourse will throw off this
artificial and wearisome parade, and
that if women look back wife pride, as
they may, upon their personal achieve
ments and labors they will also regard
them with astonishment. Women, we
read every day, long for the rights and
privileges OF men, and the education
and serious purpose in life of men. And
yet such is the sweet, self-sacritice of
their nature. they voluntarily take on
burdens which men have never as
sumed, and which they would speedily
cast off if they had. What should we
say of men if they consumed half their
time in paying formal calls upon
each other merely for the sake
of paying calls, and were low
spirited if they did not receive as
many cards as they had dealt out to So
ciety? Have they not the time? Have
women more time? and if they have,
why should they spend it in this Sisy
phus task? Would the social machine
go to pieces-the inquiry is made in
good faith and solely for information
| if they made rational business for them
selves to be attended to, and even if
| they gave the time now given to calls
| they hate to reading and study, and to
making their households civilizing CEN
tres of intercourse and enjoyment, and
| paid visits from some other motive than
clearing off the list?" If all the arti
| fetal round of calls and cards should
tumble down, what valuable thing
| would be lost out of anybody's life?
The question is too vast for the
Drawer, but as an experiment in So
| ciology it would like to see the system
| in allegiance for one season. If at the
| end of it there had not been just as
much social enjoyment as before, and
| there were not fewer women than usual
down with nervous prostration, it would
| agree to start at its own expense new
| xperiment-to-wit: a kind of social
| clearing g-house, in which all cards
should be delivered and exchanged, and
| all social debts of this kind be balanced
| by bool1-kee pers, so that the reputation of
| everybody for proprietY and conven-
tionality should be just as good as it is

has always been feature in whist play
ing. For this now you play duplicate
whist" Having dealt the cards as
usual, you play them according to tho
existing rules; but then, when the game
is over, instead of dealing the cards
afresh, the same hands which have Just
been played are again taken by the four
players; A and G, however, now having
the cards which b and ID held.
while b and d take the hand just played
by A and G. Thus the same hands ara
played out a second time, and score is
kept SO that it may he seen which pair
of partners has made the most OF the
cards they have successfully held. And
this process being repeated with every
game, the rubber is finally said to be
won by the two players who, under tho
above conditions, have shown the
greater skill. Skill, in short, alone
tells in duplicate whist, chance having
nothing whatever to do with the result;
honors in their hands in the first
game, their rivals will hold them, as a
matter of course in the next. So far as
| can judge, however, duplicate whist is
not likely to be generally adopted in
stead of the ordinary game. The ele-
ment of chance which enters into whist
AS now played gives it its chief charm
in the eyes of many players, who often
trust their luck to enable them to hold
their own with far stronger and more
scientific players. Luck, indeed, serves
not infrequently to make fair handi-
cap out of what would otherwise be a
very one-sided race, and though Caven-
dish and other whist players of the first
rank are said to be ardent admirers of
duplicate whist, think it will only oust
ordinary whist to comparatively small
extent.

MAKING CALLS.
The Humbug and Folly of This Oner-
Gus Social Custom.


What beautiful civilization ours is
supposed to be, says Charles Dudley
Warner in the June Harper's, growing
in intelligence and simplicity and yet
voluntarily taking upon itself this arti-
fetal burden in an already overtaXed
life. The angels in heaven must admire
and wonder. The cynic wants to know
what is gained for any rational being
when city full of women undertake to
make and receive formal visits with
persons whom for the most part they do
not wish to see. What is gained, he
asks, by leaving cards with all these
people and receiving their cards?
When a woman makes her tedious
rounds why is she always relieved to
find people not in? When she can
count upon her ten fingers the people
she wants TO see why should she pre-
tend to want 10 see the others? Is any
one deceived by it? Does anybody re-
gard it as anything but a sham and a
burden? Much the cynic knows about
it. Is it not necessary to have an au-
thentic list Of pasteboard acquaintances
to invite to receptions? And what
would become of US without receptions?
Everybody likes TO give them. Every
body hocks TO them with much alacrity.
When society calls the roll we all
know the penalty OF being left out. Is
there any intellectualo or physical pleas
ure equal to that of jamming so many
people into house That they can hardly
move, and treating" tnem to Babel of
noises in which no. one can make her.

is nothing like a reception in any un-
civilized country. 1t is SO eXhilaratingl
When a dozen or hundred people are

begin to raise their vbices and to shout

low. or even in the ordinary tone, con
yersation would be possible. But then
it would not be "A RECEPTION, as we under

The Jury has the Case.

New York, June 1.-THE Diss de Bar
conspiracy trial was continued to-day. AL
bert Bierstadt, the artist, testified that in
the pretended production of spirit picture
for him by the madame, he detected General
Diss de Bar in the act of substituting a
picture for the PLAN canvas in the frame
which he (BierstadD held on his head.
The madame and the "general" afterwards
substantially acknowledged their fraud by
saying they wished to go into some legiti-
for that purpose. Counsel for the defense
asked for the discharge of the accused. He
warned the court to beware lest it perse-
cuted the woman. For all that man could
know she might be the medium through
which the infinite being made his manifesto
tions. He quoted the bible to sustain spirit
ualstic theories. The court did not look at
1t that way and allowed the case TO go to the
Jury.
