This offer to refund the

MANS Belieh and Practices.
The exact religious standing Of Gen. Sher-
man II q matter that seems not to have ever been
definitely settied. Thursday morning the rite
Of extreme JUNCTION was administered to him.
and this fact would seem to carry with il the
presumption that he had expressed q desire
that the rite should be administered to him or
else had shown contrition.
James Fullerton, who is q recognized authority
on questions OF interest TO the church in this
CITY. said to STAR reporter: ''Gen. Sherman
mother was a Catholic and he himself as a child
was baptized into the church. Since then,
however, be has not been identified with the
cnurch IN any way nor has he practiced its doc
frines until now, 20 AR ~ know. His wife was
q oevout Catholic and all their children have
been oaptised and reared in that faith. They
are all devoted church people, and il may have
been at their solicitation that the rite Of ex-
treme mction was administered. Still, the
church is always ready TO receive MP to the last
moment and possibly the general may have
self.
He never objected to his children following
the precepts of their church, and there we're
no strained relations visible when his son en-
.ered the church a. q priest few years ago.
He was undoubtedly disappointed. for he had
intended his son TO follow the legal profession
and to enter public life. The general was not
present when his con was ordained. although
the ceremony Of ordination took place in Phil
adeiphia and he Was IN New York at the time, and
ample notice Of the important event had been
given. The son is now receiving what is known
as the longer course at the hands Of the Jesuits
and is developing into q scholar Of the ablcst
kind He graduated from Georgetown College
and then from Yale, and studied law before be
was ordained into the church"

Tricyo1es for Policemen.
o the Editor Of The Evening Star;

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
By mounting the police force on tricyeles
the efficiency Of the service can be more than
doubled with comparatively small outlay. By
this means an officer will be able to cover his
beat two or three times where he now covers 1t
once and with considerably less fatigue. The
tricycle. IL better suited than the bicycle, a. II
requires less attention on the part Of the rider
and consequently would give the officer better
opportunity for making close observation as he
passes along the streets. An experimental test
by thepolice department Of o few wheels would
doubtless give such satisfactory results that
they would be generally adopted in abort
time. 1t seems quite remarkable that the
smooth streets Of this city have 90 long couutsd
for nothing SO far as the police service 10 con-
cerned.
The wheels would be entirely safe while
officers are making arrests, as with tho police
department stamp upon them no thief would
be bold or foolish enough to attempt TO stead
them. Mounted in this manner the officers
would have hotter control over thefast and reck-
less driving thattakes placein this city, SO much
to the injury and discomfort of pedestrians
On foot an officer has little chance OF over
hauling q fast driver, but mounted ON good
wheel he can give chase and make arrests The
adoption Of the wheel would undoubtedly lead
to a moro effective police service in every
respect. q. +. J.
