About sheridan,s Ride.

During the first G. A. R. encamp-
ment in Washington several years
ago, ex-President Hayes entertained
party of vets with a story of the
closing incident of the battle of Cedar
Creek, the engagement made immortal
by Sheridan's ride. One of his audit
ors thus relates the story:
Hayes said that after the fight was
over, Sheridan was sitting on a log by
the road, when Custer, who had been
in pursuit of Early, came up. Sher-
idan asked him what he had been do
ing, and the reply was: We have
captured a whole HIS mint of wag-
ons. Early hasn't a wheel left; give
me a drink. "
Most stories that 1 have read of
Sheridan's ride said George w. Mar
tin, a Missouri "vet," tell of a body
of men accompanying him. l was an
eyewitness of that ride, and Sheridan
was alone. l was on the road between
Middletown and Newtown, when saw
a cloud of dust in the distance. Di-
rectly 1 heard the laundering of hoofs,
and beheld a black horse coming to-
ward me as fast as a horse could
come.
His rider 1 saw to be an officer,
but who it was l did not know until
he passed me, and then l saw that it
was Little Phil He rode into the
fight, and how he sent Early 'whirling
up the valley is a matter of history"
A grizzled vet from Missouri said:
81 was a delegate from Missouri to
! the Boston encampment in 1890, and
| our department delegate-at-large was
| Gen. w. T. Sherman. Gen. Alger, then
oommander-in-chief, in opening the
| encampment, invited Gen. Sherman to
| take a seat on the platform.
Sherman arose and said, L thank
| you, but unless it is an order, l prefer
| to sit with the delegation from Mis-
souri, and 1 tell you, we boys from
| Missouri felt about four inches taller

Miss Lucy Lee Hill, daughter OF
the famous Gen. Ambrose Powell Hill
of Virginia, and herself a loved daugh-
ter of the South, after a few years OF
standing face to face with the prosaic
business world of Chicago, is about
to come into her own, like the Prln-
cess in the fairy tale. Her marriage
to Gen. James E. Magill, wealthy
planter of Pulaski, Va, will take her
back to her own country, where up in
the Alleghennies she will be mistress
of Cleremont, Gen. Magill's old home
In Chicago she has been examiner
for the civil service.
Gen. Magill is a division command
er of the Virginia Confederate Vet

known officer in the army of Gen.
Lee.
Miss Hill went to Chicago from her
home at Petersburg, Va, during the
Worlds Fair in 1898 in the capacity of
lady commissioner to the worlds
Fair. Her mother and her sister, Mrs.
Russell Hill Hale, then went to Chi

in the city hall.

death OF Miss Winnie Davis, Jefferson

DUTCH RULE IN JAVA.
Elaborate System of Etiquette

sisted on by Conquerors.
The government clerks in Java are
probably the best educated civil SER
wants in the world. They are all
Dutch, of course, for Java is owned
and governed by Holland, and every
mothers son of them is and must by
law be a graduate of the University
at Delft
Special courses are maintained
there for those who expect to go out
to Java in the government service,
do so unless he has mastered French,
German, English and at least two of
the four languages spoken in Java,
one of which must be Malay. The
higher officials and the judges must
speak three of the native tongues
1t is forbidden to a native to speak
Dutch, or high" Javanese, to a supe-
rior, and no superior would think of
using anything but low" Javanese to
an inferior. Servants must always
appear before their masters with
covered heads. Javanese, except of
high rank, may not smoke in the pres
ence of any European. The Dutch say
that if they did not insist on native
recognition of their superiority they
would not be able to attain their au-
thority at all. The etiquette of rank
as insisted upon among the Javanese
themselves is ever more severe than
that imposed by the Dutch upon the
natives

Massachusetts in the War.

Massachusetts, contributed eighteen
regiments of infantry and battery,
which served for nine months, bat
terry which served for six months, and
a company Company B, 7th militia) !,
which served for a similar term. Two
corps of cadets served for about three
months, 10 unattached companies
served for 80 days, 10 unattached COM
panies enlisted for year, but did not
serve for the full term.
Before then the need of regiments
for longer terms of service became ap-
parent, and 40 regiments of infantry,
numbered from 1 to 62, with some
numbers omitted, as they represented
9 months and 100 days. Regiments
were recruited for three years. The
61st served for one year, and the ed
was not mustered into the service,
as by the time it was organized the
war was over. In addition to this, the
state furnished three heavy artillery
regiments for three years, another for
one year, and a battalion of heavy ar
tillery which served for three years.
Two unattached companies Of heavy
artillery served for a year, and Is
batteries OF light artillery served for
three years
Five cavalry regiments went out
from Massachusetts, and served for
three years, and battalion of frontier
cavalry served for one year. The
state also contributed two companies
of sharpshooters, which were later at
tached to regiments in the field Sew

in this state, served in New York regi-

EVILS THAT FOLLOW DIVORCE.
-ruancy and Waywardness of Child
rem rs Shown In CHICAGO.

rem as Shown in Chicago.
Divorce is the root of crime and
truancy among the juvenile delin-
quents of Chicago. This conclusion
has been reached by W. Lester Bo-
dine, superintendent of compulsory
education, after Investigations eX-
tending over q year.
Arrests made by the truant officers
and court records, Supt. Bodine de-
clares, shows that great majority
of the boys and girls who "go wrong
are the children of divorced parents.
By testimony taken in his office and
in court, these children have shown,
he says, that they first lose respect
for their quarelsome parents, and
when the parents separate the child
has only the influence of one.
Supt. Bodine, after collecting sta
tistics from court records and other
sources, declares that there are $4,000
divorced women in Chicago and near
ly as many divorced men. A major
ity of these divorced people had child
rem, he has found. On his estimate of
two children for each couple, the num-
Der of children of divorced people in
Chicago would be nearly 100000.
The superintendent quotes statistics
to show that many of the boys COM
mitted to the parental school, the
John Worthy school, the Jail, and
other corrective and charity institu-
lions, are half orphans through di-
vorce DEGREES. The same holds true,
he says, of the girls committed to the
various Industrial schools and institu.
tons for wayward girls.
Other statistics collected by Supt
Bodine show, he says, that marriages
and births are increasing and divorces
decreasing among the large and grow
| ing foreign-born population, while
marriages and births are decreasing
and divorces are increasing among
the American-born population

Lauohed at Rombardment.

Gosh" said the Sergeant, q hope
those Russians who put up such
fight at Port Arthur were not new TO
bombardments. If they were 1 will
bet a pound of bareback they were
scared a good many times when the
Japs first got their range. Nothing
scares a fellow worse in the begin
ming than well organized lombard
ment, and nothing is accepted with
greater indifference by soldiers when
they get used to It,
Il remember an experience we had
while camped at Gauley Bridge in the
summer of 1861. The art of war was
new to US then, and we believed that
if any man pointed a cannon in our
direction and let drive he was bourd
to kill somebody. Imagine our con-
sternatfon then when the rebs across
the river opened on our camp from
guns high up on the precipftous hills.
We couldn't understand how they got
there, and their holiness in erecting
batteries so near our own camp para
lyzed' us.
In addition they sent solid shot
rolling over our parade ground and
among our tents. They knocked a
cup of coffee out of a mans hand
d
fire built just right to cook beans.
We were surprised that the general
did not order us to move camp 81
once, but he did nothing of the kind
After we had been bombarded for
about five or six hours he rode down
to see US, and found the boys chas
ing the enemy's cannon balls on the
parade ground. He laughed and said
the experience would do US 10 harm
and it didn't.
"The rebs blazed away at us every
| day for seven days, and we wondered
why the general didn't do something
about it, but we didn't care whether
he did or not. There were lively in
| cidents every day, but not a single
| man in our regiment was hurt. One
| day Capt. Fee, our quartermaster, de
| cided to ride down the river roaC
| from Mount Tompkins to our camp
He was striking figure and he rode
a striking horse, and scarcely had he
