Gen. sheridan's Children.

1nllnuClpIl0 llne6.
The home of the late Gen. Sheridan
is still sad in the remembrance of the
death of it's distinguished head; but
amid oil this sorrow there is Il quiet
Joy in the heart of Mrs. Sheridan in
her children. The eldest daughter,
Mary, is now 13, and very bright
The twin daughters, Louise and
Irene, named after their aunt and
their mother, take after them in
beauty, and "Little Phil" Just turn
ing 8, is q perfect reproduction of
the "Iittle Phil" the hero of Win
chester and Five Forks. In stature
and physiognomy he is a counter
part of his father, which is a great
source of consolation to his mother.
The "Little Phil" of the family
shows oil the courage and
equanimity Of the Little Phil"
of the history. One of the
recollections of the family during
their sad journey to Nonquit by land,
while the fatally stricken General
was being conveyed thither by sea,
was an incident at Staunton. The
private car in which Sheridan and
family were making the journey had
been placed on a side track to await
the through train. In switching, a
car came laundering along the same
track. The family, seeing the danger,
retreated in great haste and confu-
sion to the opposite end of the car.
Little Phil'' took in the situation
mt once, but was not to be stamped
ed. He braced himself between the
seats, and looked defiance at the
approaching car which was still not
responding properly to the brakes.
When it struck with considerable
force, "Little Phil" was still there,
holding his own. while his mother
apd sisters and Mrs. Kellogg were
considerably alarmed.

twelve or thirteen years lying on the floor Of

He Was Vastly Su,mrior.

The historian was IN country vii.
lagc near to Boston not long ago
when IL certain couple attracted his
attention. The wife was IL trim,
rather attractive little body, with
an erectncss of carriage that showed
above the generally slouclly figures
of her nei"hbors. 1t was learned
that this sduc to her riding horse
back. for wlicllshc was locally famed
as IL girl and won two prizes at the
village fair. llcrf;ltlerhadind
her in Il few of the privileges of an
only daughter, among which was
also Il season or two at II private
school.
But her husband was a character.
He, too. was somewhat more intelli-
gent than his ncighbors. He never
took a prize, but was quite eligible
than his nci"hbors. He never took
IL prize, but was quiet eligible for one
for lazincss. AS his neighbors en-
pressed it, ''lle was too lazy to live"
They were poor, the wife, long ago
having sold not only her horse but
her saddle. Yet the husband would
not work. The most he would do
was to help till the little garden that
went far toward supporting them
But the oldest thing about the man
was that through the length and
breadth of the village he was
known as VASTLY Superior"
This sobriquet was employed not
in Jest but i'll practical earnest. "Is
Vastly Superior ut home:" VASTLY
Superior went here or there" etc.
Asking the meaning OF this singu.
lar cognomen the historian learned
that the little woman had been somc-
what ola belle: several village suit
ors had aspired to her hand. One
good fellow on whom she seemed to
smile called one evening, and was
met by her father and told that he
could not see her and his visits had
better be discontinued.
is she engaged with any one
now" asked the young man.
"ies, sir; engaged for life to one
vastly superior to any resident Of
this village
The suitor went sadly away; the
praise of the accepted man was re.
pelted; the marriage in due time
took place, and as the young hus.
bands traits developed the villagers
bethought them of the appellation
by which the father rated him above
themselves. 1t touched the bucolit
sense of humor and the nickname
stuck.-Boston Record.

She Was from the West.

GA conductor of drawing-room

ny things and some things that are
not so funny" said IL veteran of the
rail to acknowledgements. "The
question is often asked if it is we'll
for a woman to travel alone. say
yes, mostemphatically, provided SHE
possesses just two qualities-selfrc.
spcct and self-reliance. With these
she may go anywhere nowadays,
and the danger of insult or offensive
attentions on the part of men will
be reduced to n minimum.
81 remember u Western woman
who came to the colored porter of a
sleeping car in which l was once COM
ing from Cincinnati to New York.
She was handsomely dressed, and
had every mark OF u lady about her.
She told the porter that her ticket
only took her as far as Philadelphia.
She wanted to go on to New York,
but hadn t o cent of money with her,
and her trunks had been left behind.
The porter who WAS one of the best
men in his position that | ever saw,
was so confident OF the wolnan's
honesty that he became surety for
her fare to New York.
''ltscems tlatH man overheard the
conversation between the lady and
the porter. He WAS going to New
York, and had Il section of the sleep.
er all to himself. The woman in her
unluckv plight had no berth. So
the man went to the porter and
through him offered the lower berth
in his section to the lady. After
some hesitation she accepted the of.
fer and retired early.
During the night tho man got
out of his berth IL numben,2f times
on some pretext ar e: n 81 < al.
ways managed to hit against the
side of the lower berth with the evil
dent design of awakening it's occ,l.
pant. He succeeded in doing this.
After he had goneout to the icc-tank
for the last time the lady called the
porter to her berth and said: when
that man offered me Il berth thought
he was II gentleman. He has hit my
berth three or four times tonight,
and know it does not happen acci-
dentally. fhe insults me Isllall use
this, and she stuck out through the
curtain Il small revolver.
"Ilr porter knew by tho woman's
hot tone that she was incarncst, and
lie went out the watcr-coo!cr, where
the man was drinking two drops of
water, and told him what she said,
and also about the revolver. 1t
scared the fellow, and lie hung
around and didn't dare to go back
to his berth for half an hour. The
woman wasn't troubled again. you
bet.
after she got to New York and
her friends she made her fare all
right and handsomely rewarded the
porter. We learned nftcrward that
she was the wife of n California mill
ionHire. Now that woman had not
only self-,espcct but self-reliancc,
too. And any wclnan having these
qualities needn't fear to go anywhere
nowadays. She will get along nll
