London.--A special series OF arti-

OF the world and OF the family, II she

THIRD AND SIXTH J.. s. CAVALRY
TROOPS HAVE GREAT WAR RECORDS.
Both Bodies Have Splendid Achievements to Their Credit and
From That Point Of View It Would Be Difficult to Make
Choice Between Them-EaCh Seeks Distinction Of
&i&i Going to Mexico

Washington, d. C-There was some
stir, in fact considerable hubbub, in
the ranks Of the Sixth Cavalry few
weeks ago when a certain piece of
news foated down the limo to Calves
ton. II was learned that Colonel Au-
gustus K. Blockson, commanding the
Third Cavalry had made formal appli-
cation to Lindley M. Garrison, secre-
tary OF war, on behalf of his officers
and men, TO be allowed TO lead the ad-
vance into Mexico.
why not the Sixth?" howled the
khaki clad horseman Of that persua-
sion. Amt they always depended on
US before, didn't we fight 13 brands of
redskins. not to speak Of the Fill
pinos and the Chinks and the boys in
gray, back in '63?"
So the claims of the Sixth were as
consistently lobbied in the state, war
and navy building as had been those
of the Third cavalry.
In records there is little to choose
between the two bodies. But the
third has the unique distinction OF
bAving been the advance guard Of the
United States troops when General
Winfield Scott in 1S47 marched and
shot and sabred his way to Cerro
Gordo and Chapultepec and finally to
Mexico City.
The regiment was organized on May
10, 1876 as the Regiment of Mounted
fihemen. The designation was
changed In 1861. Its first colonel was
Persifer f. Smith who later became a
brigadier general.
Early In November Of 1916, the reg
iment was ordered to Mexico. A
month before two companies went to

picnic than the landing a couple OF
months ago.
On the march to Mexico City the
cavalrymen performed numerous
deeds of valor and lost four officers
40 men killed and had large number
wounded.
The Sixth Cavalry is even better
tnan the Third. 1t won distinction in
the Civil war, the Indian wars, the
Spanish-American war, and the Phil.
ippines.
The regiment was organized May A,
1861 Like the Third 1t has changed
it's title Curiously, too, the Sixth was
organized under the name of the Third
Regiment of Cavalry. Five months la
ter the Sixth received its present des-
ignation.
The regiment participated in the
Peninsular campaign under the com
mand of General Stoneman. 1t earned
perhaps its first fame at the battle of
williamsburg, which 1t opened. After
this engagement 1t pursued the en-
emy through Yorktown.
Later the Sixth was at Malvern Hill,
Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, the Will
derness, Spottsylvania court house,
Winchester and Appomattox court
house, besides numerous less impor-
tant but often righ sharp clashes.

In March, 1888, General Crook took
Troop l under Chaffee who was then
a captain, on his famous expedition
to the Sierra Madres in Mexico, re-
turning in July. They marched 800
miles and brought in three head chiefs
and about 400 hostiles.
At the beginning of the Spanish.
American war the regiment was sta
toned In Nebraska and it was sent to
Florida. Here it became part of the
cavalry division of the Fifth army
corps. It sailed for Cuba on June IA.
1898, one troop remaining behind. The
regiment distinguished itself at San
Juan and Santiago.
After that war the regiment was
stationed in New York, Alabama, Kan
sas, Oklahoma and California, until
1900, when it was sent to the Philip
pines. Several troops of the regiment
also went to China to help put down
the Boxer uprising.
The regiment has been In the Phil

some months it has been the Sixth

Chelsea, Eng.-The town councillors
have resolved to remove the portrait
of Oscar Wilde from the town hall
where it was placed recently.
Some objected to the retention OF
the picture on artistic grounds, but
the majority were prompted by ethi.

resolution ridiculed the proposed ac
tion and asked why the portraits OF
George Eliot, Byron, and Shelley
should not be removed also.
