Philadelphia; on her meeting with the
general, and Of her marriage to him
in 1875.
Mrs. Sheridan is still young woman
She Is slender, almost girllsh in
figure, and dresses with exquisite taste
in dark colors. She is graceful and
willowy, and carries her dainty head
with an air Of aristocratic ease, Her
hair waves delightfully."- into becom-
ing bang, her eyes are gray and bright,
while the contour Of her face Is n dell
icate oval. In manner she Is simple and
kindly, her birth and breeding showing
plainly in the ease with which she
meets all Of her social duties and the
tact Of her cordial bearing. Mrs. Sher-
idan Is rather retiring, and is devoted
to her home and children. She orders
the conduct Of her household, even to
the details, and personally superin-
tends the studies Of her son, who bears
the name of his illustrious father, Of
whom he Is q speaking likeness. She
finds time, also, to indulge her tastes for
music and art and for the demands Of
charity. Until within year or two
Mrs. Sheridan has entertained rarely,
except In the way Of small dinner par
ties and informal evenings for friends.
The Sheridan children are a bright
and interesting group. Mary, the old
est, was presented to society last win
ter; the twins Irene and Louise, will
make their debut during the present
season; Philip is nearing his four
teenth birthday and is at school in
Washington. The girls are said to be
just such daughters as might be eX-
pected Of such mother-pleasant, af-
fable, well-mannered, well-educated,
sweet and simple, full Of life and spirit.
Great hopes are centered in young
phil" When old enough he will be
sent to West Point. He is fond Of all
that relates TO war and the army, and
he will, no doubt, prove himself worthy
of his sire. He is well built, has a
frank, honest countenance, and is as
full of fun and romp as any Of his play
md Is.
The home Of the Sheridans is de-
scribed as one of the most interesting
residences in Washington, not only for
its historic associations, but for the
attractions Of its fair mistress and her
children. 1t is the center of the fash
ionable residence section-on Rhode
Island avenue-and was the gift Of Chi
cago friends to Gen. Sheridan when he
was appointed COMMUNICATIVE Of
the army. The house bespeaks every
where the great general and his glori-
Gus achievements ON the field. The
quaint hall Is full of momentoes Of the
warrior. In one corner on a wooden
rack is fine, silver-studded Mexican
saddle and bride, which was presented
to him by an admirer; on table there

MRS. PHILIP II. SHERIDAN.

Sheridan was without exception the
most popular social leader that Chica-
go has ever had. Her gracious and
dignifled manner endeared her to all;
her refined beauty and the honest
glance from her deep-set. luminous
gray eyes fingers in the thoughts of all
who were fortunate enough to meet
her. When General Sheridan was
made COMMUNICATIVE chief of the United
States army, which necessitated his re-
moval to Washington, Chicago parted
reluctantly with Mrs. Sheridan, who
was not only one of her greatest orna-
ments, but one Of her most jealous
friends.
Chicagoans do not forget that Cen
eral Sheridan was one Of the greatest
generals known to history, but it is not
as a general that they remember him.
1t is as loving, helpful friend. They
picture him sitting by his own fireside
chatting with Mrs. Sheridan and her
few friends, or playing with the chill
dren on the spacious lawn. There are,
also, few who remember him as the
Santa Claus Of their childhood. These
favored few recall with keen delight
rides on old Winchester, romps in the
generals bachelor quarters and quiet
afternoons spent in listening, with
childish awe and delight, to the daring
deeds Of Indians on bucking broncos
intricately interviewer into some fairy
tale that was worthy the genius of Hans
Andersen
Mrs. Sheridan seems even after these
many years of absence Chicago wom-
an, and any fresh garland of flowers
cast at her feet gives pleasure to all her
western friends. In recent article
entitled General Sheridans Widow"
the writer touches upon Mrs. Sheridan's

An Insulting Dude Roughly Troatod BY
Young Lady
There was quite scene at the expo
sition one afternoon, says the st. Louis

pretty and plucky young lady deliber-
ately boxing the jaws Of gay young
masher. The young lady was Miss Ma
bel Puthoff Of 1892 Easton avenue, who
is In the employ Of the Quaker oats dis
play. The young man is unknown. He
wore a light-brown overcoat and was,
to all appearances, swell of the first
order. He had light mustache, blue
eyes and carried cane,
The young lady and her sister were
down in the basement taking a lunch
when the young Swell" passed by and
happened to see the girls. He spoke,
but was unrecognized by the ladies, who
were confident they had never met the
man. After finishing the lunch the
girls returned to their exhibit and were
much surprised when the man put IN
his appearance and at once began to
make overtures as though an acquan-
lance.
The climax was reached when the
Swell" asked the young lady for hair
pin or Just anything to remember you
by" AT this Miss Puthoff drew back
her pretty, dimpled hand and let go.
She landed square on the "would-be"
Washers cheek. At this crowd gath
cred around, but before a guard arrived
the man had disappeared. An exposi-
ton detective was detailed to find the
man, but his search proved fruitless.
