PHILIP H. SHERIDAN
He Was the Greatest Soldier Of the
Civil War.

You rose to be lieutenant colonel
! of calvary and once commanded a bri-
gade. Did you ever serve under Sheri-
dan?" asked reporter of Congress
man Hepburn.
Il was with him in his first fight.
Indeed accompanied him to the camp
OF the Second Michigan. after he had
been commissioned as it's colonel, and
introduced him to the officers. Joined
his staff later. He was the greatesc
soldier of his day, and in my opinion
would have been In command of all
the armies had the war lasted two
years longer. l perceived his wonder-
full ability at Boonesville, Miss, where,
in July, 1862, he fought his first bat
tie. With two regiments of cavalry
and some artillery he came upon Gen.
James r. Chalmers, who outnumbered
him three 10 one.
Sheridan sent Capt. Russell A. AL
ger, late secretary of war and a SEN
ator from Michigan, with 80 picked
men to Chalmers right flank and an
other captain and small. body of
troopers ID the left flank. The two
captains were ordered to go straight
through .he enemy at a certain time.
Sheridan opened on Chalmers with his
artillery. and in person led the cav
airy charge. He acted throughout as
II he had an army Of 10000 men. The
Confederates believing themselves to
be surrounded, broke and ran. We
captured prisoners from eleven differ
ent organizations. Alger was wounded
and the enemy took him along. How
ever. he escaped the very same day
and returned to his command.
1.-THE poems. songs and stories of the
civil war;" Col. Hepburn went on to
say. picture Sheridan as being a
heedlessly daring officer. AS a mat
ter of fact, he was a very prudent and
careful nun. Ordinarily, when on a
march, he got under way at daylight.
1t was his practice to go INTO camp
about o'clock in the afternoon
And every time he went into camp
he had rough map of the adjacent
country, with roads, streams, bridges
and woods all plainly marked, and
based in every case on information OBJ
tanned by questioning the farmers and
other inhabitants. have known him
to make the map himself.
Thus. :t he were attacked in the
night, he might have to fight in the
dark. but he knew the geography OF
the situation. Moreover he gave the
location Of the picket stations his per-
sonal attention. Because Of his short
legs and long body he looked like a
small man when he was on the ground,
but like an uncommonly big man when
he was on horseback"

Halrs Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces or the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in do- ing it's work.

No sooner had she responded to the civil service that made her Flynns wife than she was hustled into a vehicle by a num- Der of masked men and taken to her fathers house, where she was told that lt would be useless for her to attempt to escape or to communicate with her husband in any way.

After two months of separation, dur ing which they were forcibly kept apart by a band of masked men who stole the bride on their wedding night, the troubles of Robert Flynn and his wife of Ballinaglera, County Antrim, Ireland, had a happy ending on Easter Monday.
 The period of pendnce which the Roman Catholic nelghbors of the bride elected she should undergo for allow ing her wedding to take place in a registry office against the wishes of the priest having expired on that date, his erstwhile jallers turned themselves into merrymakers at big feast and dance at the brldegrooms home, which were given to celebrate the first meet ing of the couple since they were made man and wife.
