THE SIXTH MASSACHUSETTS.
Famous Regiment's Second March
Through Baltimore.

Through Baltimore.
Times change and men change with
them. This truth Is recalled by the
reception accorded the sixth Massa-
chusetts Regiment In Baltimore while
on its way to the encampment In Falls
Church, Va, to aid In crushing Spain.
This greeting was splendid in concep-
tion and carrying out and reflects great
credit upon the Baltimoreans who left
nothing undone that could contribute
to the gloriflcation of the Bay State
soldiery while within the confines OF
Maryland's great city. In marked con-
trast to this was the reception given to
the same regiment In the same city on
April 10, 1861. while on It's way to
Washington. Then the command was
set upon by mob numbering thou
sands. and before the regiment cut It's
way through the infuriated multitude
five soldiers were killed and twenty
four wounded. The number of dead
and wounded In the assaulting column
was never correctly ascertained, but
from the most authentic sources at
least thirty We're killed and more than
100 wounded. The fight was desperate
for more than mile and the volleys Of
the soldiers were given with the muz-
Eles Of their guns within few feet Of
those who disputed their passage. This
assault made the regiment famous, as
It was the first blood shed in the civil
conflict.
The commander, Edward f. Jones,
scented an uprising In January, 1861,
and had his companies, chiefly from
L0st0n, ready weeks before the firing
on Fort Sumter. AS soon as President
Lincoln issued the call for $1,000 men
Jones had the Sixth In motion and had
the honor Of leading the first regiment
down Broadway, New York, for the

Common as IL the superstition that
Friday 10 the most unlucky Of days,
and 10 Of numbers, tho belief In un-
lucky hours is equally widespread on
tho European continent and in the
East. Gambetta was 80 firmly con-
yinced that certain hours OF the day
are lucky and others unlucky that he
would never commence any important
undertaking or start on on important
Journey without consulting famous
reader Of cards aa 70 the ausplcious
hour. and President Tanrc, who was
prudent enough TO select q lucky hour
for starting on his recent journey to
Russia, Is said to share 6ambetta's su.
perstition. President Carnot was less
oredulous, and selected an unlucky
hour for starting on the journey to
Lyons, whore he was assassinated by
Caserio. The superstition Is so com
mon In Paris that cards tastoiully em-
bellishcd and containing list OF
"hours to be avoided aro extensively
sold.

The Topeka, originally the Diog-
enes, of England, is being made into a
fighting ship at the Brooklyn navy
yard. She is not very popular with the
officers and men, according to The New
York Press. Jacks old propensity for
naming things himself hasn't let the
Topeka 90 by, and he's dubbed her the
"Tapiooa, +" and says she isn't pud-
ding eitherl But the Tapioca she's
known as at the yard among both men

so except when they're speaking Of her

SECOND MARCH OF MASSACHUSETTS THROUGH BALTIMORE

population Of London Is approaching
100000, and for purposes Of sanitary
supervision the area is divided into for
ty-three districts, each having Its med
ical officer of health. Sanitation and
medical science are graphing success
fully with disease, and the illustrative
diagrams by means OF which DIR. Muir
ply reduces numerous bewildering bat
talions Of statistics to a striking COM
prehensive impression Of that contest
tell on the whole a fairly satisfactory
story.
Marriages are certainly found to be
declining when we take long survey,
even II we are not able to say that the
diminution is all under the head Of i'm
provident unions. The marriages dur
ing the forty-five years from 1851 to
1895 show mean rate Of 1870 per ], 900.
But from 1851 to 1876 the marriage rate
each year was above that mean. There
was indeed brief period--it covered
the '60s-when marrying In London
burst forth with exceptional fervor, but
the abnormal effort seems to have had
the consequence Of all abnormal eff
forts in remarkable reaction, and
since then making 'nuptiaI Of two
hearts" has gone steadily downward,
though, we may add, to reassure the
timorous, that In actual figures the
dIminution on the quarter Of century
is from 1915 to 1870 per 1000. Last year
39,689 marriages were made In Lon
don, and the number is probably ample.
The birth rate too is on the down
grade, the turn in this department be-
ginning about 1885, and continuing IN
til now. Last year births were most
numerous In the combined eastern dis,
tricts and lowest In the western, and
we notice, furthermore, that, although
the fewest children were born in the
western part OF London, more infants
died there than In any other group of
districts. The fall In the London birth
rate corresponds strangely with a fall
over the whole of England and Wales.

seat OF war. The New Yorkers gave
the troops an uproarious welcome. As
soon as 1t was learned they were to
go through Baltimore the people Of
that city became very indignant and
proposed to forcibly prevent It. At
Philadelphia the frowning attitude Of
the Monumental City was coInmuni-
Gated to the soldiers en- route, whose
good time was suddenly interrupted by
the order to load their guns with bali
cartridge. This meant an ugly recep-
tion.
The troops arrived In the hostile city
in crowded station filed with angry
men who hurled exeeratdons at the ar
riving soldIery. Finding this did not
provokeaquarrel, as the Sixth emerged
into the street fusIlade was begun,
and soon the air was flied with flying
missiles hurled at the invaders. Sew
eral were struck and then the regiment
turned and faced It's assailants. This
did not deter the unorganized foe and
the command was given to fire. When
the smoke lifted several Of the dead
and dying rioters were stretched on the
ground and a panic-stricken mob was
hunting O place Of safety. A running
fight was kept up until the regiment
reached the depot on the other side Of
tie city, when 1t was found that FIVE
of the members had been shot to death
ana many wounded. The ride to Wash
ington was without interruption. The
bodies Of the dead soldiers we're con-
geyed to their homes and a great fu-
neral procession took place In Boston.
A noble monument to their memory Is
erected on one of the main streets In
Worcester. where most OF the killed
were from.
The assault embittered the Balti-
moreans and led to a general arming

Long ago Boston and Baltimore made

the request Of the Marylanders that the
Sixth Regiment, equipped for service
against foreign foe, be invited to
tread the streets where her march was
SO rudely disturbed thirty-seven years
ago. The invitation was promptly ac-
cepted by Col. Woodward and his men.
When the regiment arrived there 1t met
with magnificent welcome. For four
hours thousands hung around the
Mount Royal station awaiting the sol
dires. When they did arrive 10000 peo-
Pile were massed in the square and
great shout went up as the Boston boys
left the train. A delegation of 200 Of
the leading citizens headed by Mayor
Malster met the troops. The Mayor in
words touching and tender addressed
the Sixth, and babe them God-speed on
their journey, and then presented
floral shield in the shape Of large bas-

the floral shield was the inscription in

Onstreamers extending from the basket
were the inscriptions: Baltimore well

he concluded three cheers and a tiger
were given for the Sixth which could

BOARD Of Trade BROKERS, III 10 IA Chamber d
Commerce building, Portland, oregon.l
The statistical news Of wheat for the
past week has been very bearish.
Beerbohm reported the worlds ship
menst at $4,000, 900 bushels, Of which
North America shipped 5,24S, 900
husehls. The American supply of Wis
ible wheat increased during the week
| ,0S5, 600 bushels, and now totals 22,-
5s7, 900 bushels. The Orange Judd
Farmer report for June makes the win
ter wheat acreage 25,651, 900 acres,
after allowing for 1000, 600 acres aban-
doned In California. The spring wheat
acreage shows radical increase every
where, the total area reaching 1885,
900 acers. The month of May was fav-
orable for wheat everywhere except in
California. and the present condition
of winter wheat is reported at 90.7.
against $40 last month and S8.5 last
year. The condition of spring wheat is
practically perfect, with an ayeage of
eel. which is the highset figure ever
reported on June by any reliable au-
thority. The situation in Oregon and
Washington is enough better than last
year to practically offset the loss in
California. Bearish sentimnet seems
to be gaining both here and abroad.
A private Liverpool cable says: The
trade is bearish and lower prices must
follow. Upward manipulation is out
of the question. with worlds ship
ments so large and American prospect
is flattering." Minneapolis reported
no buyers Of cash wheat in that mar
ket today. About the only strong fac
tor has been the New York market,
where foreigners are asid to have
bought large quantities for September
and later deliveries. That market has
been we'll sustained, and the foreign
support thus given encouraged belief
that prices may do better here, at least
temporarily.
