SHERIDAN'S MEMOIRS.

The Story of the Life, Campaigns and Adj
ventures of Lieutenant General Sheri.
dan, Written by Himself. to be Given to
the Public.
NEW YORK, May 30.-A year and a halt
ago General Sheridan began writing his
memoirs. Last winter he submitted his
manuscripts Chas. L. Webster & Co., the
publishers, but when he heard that his
book would not be issued until next De-
cember he asked to have his manuscript
returned to him, and he revised it. The
manus cript was ready again on May 10,
and his brother, Colonel Michael v. Sher-
idan, took it to the publishers, who an
nounce that they have the book in hand.
A member of the firm said that
General Sheridan had written very
interesting narrative of his life.
He had used the first person, and his
book read like romance. 1t was full of
the Generals adventures from the time of
his graduation at West Point at twenty
one, to the Franco-Prussian war, Of
which he was a spectator. In simple
language he had given graphic account
of his Indian fights and his part in the
late war. The book was not statistical,
he said, and was much like a story that
it would sell, even if the Generals name
was not connected with it as the author.
w ueHeVcT OoucTdl OucTludu udu IOuuO IL
necessary to use statistics he had put
them in form of notes, so that the narra-
tive was never broken. FIRE.
4uently the writing was strong and showed
clever literary hand. He had given
mastery account of his memorable ride
from Winchester. The memoirs, when
bound, will contain two fine engravings of
General Sheridan, cuts of his generals
and twenty-six maps prepared by the
War Department. The book will be in
two volumes. The date of publication
had not yet been determined upon.

A COURTROOM TRADEDY.

The Rawson Divorce Case in Chicago Pro-
duces Another Sensation -Attempt of
Mrs. Rawson to Kill Her Husbands
Counsel -, Lawyer Whitney Seri Ouslv,
Perhaps Fatally, Wounded.
CHICAGO, June Mrs. Meckie L. Raw
son this morning marked another bloody
period in the celebrated divorce pro-
ceedings between herself and her mill
ionaire hus band by making deliberate
and savage attempt to kill one Of her
husbands counsel, Lawyer Whitney, as
he was attending to branch of the case
in Judge JamiesOn's courtroom. While
the court and attorney, at 1910, were
waiting for the appearance of Mrs. Raw
son, who was tardy, the lady stepped
hastily into the room and drawing 3S-
caliber revolver, leveled it at the
head Of Mr.. Whitney, who was
reading paper, and fired, the bullet en-
tering his left leg and inflicting what may
prove fatal wound. Judge Jameson,
Clerk Reich, and the others in the court
room sprang up in alarm, and as the in
furiated woman proceeded to fire again,
they sought places of safety under desks,
and in remote corners of the room. Mr..
Whitney ran to gain the shelter of the
clerks desk, and had nearly reached it
when Mrs. Rawson ran forward and fred
four times more, one of these shots

crashing into the desks and wood work.
Bailif Sunderland, an old man, started
for the murderous woman, and had a
fearful struggle with her. He seized her
around the waist from behind, and at last
succeeded in wrenchiug the revolver from
her hand, and she was forced into q seat.
The crowd that had gathered rushed to
tic assistance of the fallen man. He was
lying on his side behind the clerks desk,
the blood trickling from his garments.
In several places it had stained the
carpet deep crimson. He was lifted
from the floor and carried tenderly
to the jury room at the south end of the
court. DR.. Andrews was Immediately
summoned to attend the wounded man.
The physician found him suffering from
dangerous bullet wound in the groin and
another little above the knee. Mean
while Judge Jameson had assembled his
..ostrum, and in peremptory tones ordered
the sheriff to be summoned, and Chief
Deputy Gleason was ordered by the Judge
to at once remove Mrs. Rawson to the
ounty Jail. This was instantly done.
