widow and his son, young Philip Sher-
ldan, now regular army soldier.
1t was in February, 1865. that Sheri-
dan received the thanks of congress
for his brilliant series of victories in
he valley of the Shenandoah, especial
y at Cedar creek" -Four years later
he was made lieutenant general by
President Grant On the retirement of
General Sherman in 1888 he succeeded
to the command of the army, and in
1888 by act of congress, approved by
President Cleveland, the rank and pay
Of full general were bestowed upon
him.
Sheridan's parents were Irish and
emigrated to this country from County
Cavan in 1880. They went to live in
Albany, n Y, and there the future
cavalry leader was born, March 6, in
the following year Soon afterward
the family moved to the town of Som
erset, o., where the boy went to school
and for awhile worked in store. OBJ
tanning an appointment to the United
States Military academy ut West
Point, he was graduated in July, 1858.
The great soldier remained bache-

ought to write an adequate poem about
Thanksgiving on the farm, but still 1t
Is hardly necessary, for Thanksgiving
on the farm is u poem in itself
1t is far cry from our quiet coun-
tryside to the Waldorf-Astoria and yet
not so far on Thanksgiving as at other
times, for at the Waldorf folks eat
turkey and pumpkin pies just as they
do at home and it is dollars to dough-
nuts do not enjoy them one whit more.
Oscar, the major domo about the big
hotel, is famous for his pumpkin pie
recipes, and what he does not know
about buying, cooking and carving the
royal Thanksgiving bird is not worth
mentioning.
Here is Oscars recipe for cooking
turkey in little different way from
the usual method:
turkey, bourgeoise style, is an ex-
cellent dish and good substitute for
roast turkey If one is tired of that
fashion of cooking the bird. The tur-
key Is singed, drawn and trussed as
for roasting, but Is not stuffed. Roast
in hot oven, basting well with but
ter until nicely Drowned. Put a few
slices of veal in the bottom of deep
stewpan, put in the turkey and cover
with slices of bacon. Moisten to its
height with stock or broth. Then put
In bunch of sweet herbs and season
to taste with pepper and salt. Let it
simmer beside the fire. When cooked
take out the turkey and place 1t in a
hot dish. Skim the fat off the cooking
liquor and strain through fine hair
sieve over the bird and serve"
There is a chance for everybody to
have Waldorf turkey at his own
home. 1t sounds good enough to make
even pessimist thankful.
