WHEN SHERIDAN
WENT TO TEXAS
Fifty Thousand American Troops
Massed on Bonier,
PARALLEL TO PRESENT MOVE

Grand Review Grant's Significan
Instructions.
Tho mobilization of thousands o
United States troops In Texas Is ii"'
a novelty In the history of the w. .
department While It Is said that tin
troops are in Texas merely for inamvi
vers, such was not the case when (!m
trnl Phil Sheridan was sent Into thai
rtate in 18G0 with 50,000 vet en: i
troops.
This move followed the occupatio
f Mexico by the French and the phu
fcig of Maximilian on the throne r
Napoleon. When the American ci ;
war was at Its height the emperor n
tho French sent troops to Mexico I
establish a throne there, believing Ih
government of tho United States to
much occupied with war to nttenip
to enforce tho Monroe doctrine. Tli
ccupation of Mexico by tho From 1'
army was tho most radical Infraction
f that doctrine ever attempted.
Not until nfter tho battle of Geffu
burg and the fall of Vicksburg !!('
Secretary Seward deem It wise to n
Hfy tho French that the proceed!) -in
Mexico were distasteful to the Un'
cd States government, and not unit
nfter tho-wnr did Mr. Seward tlnd t-'
time ilpe to demand of Napoleon th
the French nrmles be withdrawn f ron
Mexico.
Even before the grand review I
Washington, prior to tho dlslmndnHv
f the armies of the Union, in whicl
ho longed to march. General Shcrldm
was ordered to the Texas frontier t
put down tho rebellion in that qu.-r
tor and also to enforce the drawn'
f tho United States government il't
Maximilian nnd his European alliei '
evacuate Mexico.
Sheridan Sent to Texas.
The day after Sheridan arrived In
Washington from Petersburg he re
ceived orders transferring him to a
new command. Tho order directed him
to restore Texas and that part of Lou
Islana held by the enemy to the Union
Sheridan promptly called ou Genera)
Grant to learn if his orders were to be
considered so pressing as to preclude
his remaining in Washington until nfte:
the grand review. General Grant told
him that It was absolutely neccssar.s
to go at once to force tho surrender ol
the Confederates under Klrby Smith
At that Interview General Grant also
told Sheridan that there was an addl
tional motive in sending him to tin
new command, a motive not explalno.:
In the written instructions.
Sheridan left Washington without
participating in the grand review.
When he arrived nt his station he de
cided to cross tho state with two col
umns of cavalry, sending one to San
Antonio under Major General Wesley
Merrltt nnd the other to Houston un
der Major General George A. Custer.
In the latter part of June, 1SG3, Gen
oral Sheridan went to Brownsville him
self to impress the imperialists with
the idea that the United States meant
business. lie also .sent General Steele
to make demonstrations all along the
lower ltlo Grande.
Maximilian Withdraws.
These demnnds, backed as they were
by such a show of force a forco star
ling not only numerically, but because
f its composition of veterans of one
f the stubborncst wars In history
were tho cause of demoralization
among tho Imperial troops, and mens
res looking to the abandonment of
northern Mexico were quickly adopted
by thoso in authority.
In the latter part of September, 18(55,
Sheridan became Impatient of the slow
work at Washington and decided to
lake another hostile demonstration
This time ho selected the upper Rio
Grande for the scene of action.
Escorted by a cavalry regiment.
Sheridan then went to Fort Duncan,
ii the ltlo Grande, opposite Pledras
Kegras. Ho then deliberately opened
communication with President Juarez.
Tills gave rise to tho belief that Sherl
inn was only awaiting the arrival of
tbe United States troops, then under
machine orders at San Antonio, to
cross the ltlo Grande and attack Maxi
milian's troops.
Tho imperialists were so much
alarmed by these reports and the open
military demonstrations that they
withdrew the French and Austrian
soldiers from Mntamoras, abandoning
tho wholo of Mexico as far down as
Monterey.
Shortly afterward the French with
drew their troops from Mexico, nnd In
1807 Maximilian was captured and ex
ecuted. Society Women Wrestlers.
Tho latest recreative exercise among
society women of tho nay State is
wrestling. It Is claimed that it pro
motes beauty of figure nnd good
health. Mnny of the boudoirs of the
smart set are now the scenes of bouts,
and the fad is expected to become
widespread.

It Is far easier to catch hair microbes
than It is to get rid of them, and a
single stroke of nn Infected comb or

banish dandruff, restore nntural color
when Its loss has been brought about
by disease, and make the hair natural

about a free, healthy circulation of
blood, which nourishes the hair roots,
causing them to tighten nnd grow new
hair. We want everybody who has

FEARS that tho American bison, popularly known ns the buffalo, will
become extinct seem to be unfounded, though the splendid animals will
never again exist In herds of tens of thousands as they did forty or
fifty years ago. The destruction of these herds, destruction wrought
by men who killed by tho thousands for the few dollars they got for tho hides,
is n shame to the government, a shame that would hardly be permitted In
these days of conservation. Even the mo-it elementary methods of game pro
tection would have saved the buffalo, for they are hardy animals, able to pro
tect themselves against most enemies and entirely able to withstand the most
rigorous weather conditions. There is a large herd of bison In Yellowstone
National park, protected by the government and existing under practlcallv
natural conditions. Tho New York zoological park has a herd of fifty or sixty
splendid animals, and they are breeding satisfactorily In captivity. There
are several small herds on western ranches, and efforts to cross them with
cattle have been tolerably successful, the hybrid being called the "cattalo"
and having characteristics of both its parents. These cattalo in turn breed su
that animals of various mixtures are obtained. The pictures printed above
were made at tho ranch owned by Major Gordon AV. Lillie, better known a
"Pawnee Bill." His ranch, located near Pawnee, Okla.. is the home of a con
siderable herd of buffalo, which have been domesticated and are treated the
same as cattle. They retain their physical characteristics, as the photograph
shows, but they are comparatively tame.
The Seal's Marvelous Instinct.
His Frankness Won.
Tbe lato Senator Dolllver said that
In politics it paid to bo frank and
honest with tho people.
"My predecessor In the senate," he
said, "was John H. Gear. On one oc
casion the prohibition spirit was run
ning high, nnd a public meeting wus
held, with a well known Quaker as
chairman. Gear was invited to the
meeting. He accepted tho invitation
Tho old Quaker called him to the plat
form and said:
" 'We learn that thou dost not belong
to any temperance society and also
that thou dost drink liquor at thy dis
cretion. Is this true?'
'"Every word of it Is true, replied
Gear, 'but did you ever hear of my
doing anything dishonorable?'
'"Nay, Mr. Gear,' replied the old
Quaker chairman 'nay, we have never
beard anything else to thy discredit.
Thy frankness is more to be commend
ed than thy habits. But thou bast not
lied to us, nnd we will support tbce.'
"And they did." said Senator Dol
llver, "and elected him too." Wash

Her Bridge Prize.
A decided coldness between tiro wo
men who had been friends for many
years is the result of a mistake made
by tho maid of one of them who bad
had n four table bridge party ono
afternoon recently. In keeping with
the custom, she had provided a prize
for each table, to bo brought to tbe
card room Just before tea was served
and placed on the tables which bore
the corresponding numbers. It was a
"lovely party" in every respect, with
never a hitch until the woman at No.
3 opened the parcel which was sup
posed to contain her trophy of victory
over her three competitors, but which
really contained a piece of perfumed
eoap. Unfortunately, the hostess was'
not In the group when the package
was opened, and much bad been said
before she discovered that the wrong
bundle had' been brought downstairs.
New York Tribune.
The instinct of the seal is turn eious
It will leave its young on the ice In
tho morning and, going down through
a hole, remain away all day swim
ming in search of food. Returning in
the evening. It will locate Its offspring
in tho same "patch" among hundreds
of thousands of other baby seals not
withstanding that tbe ice may have
wheeled or drifted fifty or sixty miles
during the day from wind and tide
and notwithstanding that the patch
may extend thirty or forty miles from
one end to the other. Whether this
instinct Is of the class that enables
tho bird without any mark or chart in
a forest with millions of trees alike to
find Its way back with ease nnd preci
sion to its nest I do not know, but it
Is one of those wonders In nature
before which human knowledge is
brought to n full stop. Sir Edward
Morris in Wide World Magazine.
The Louvre.
The Louvre dates away back to the
reign of Dagobert in C28. In 1201 it
was a prison nnd in 1304 was made
Into a library. Tho new building was
begun by Francis I. in 1528 and en
larged and adorned by successive
kings, principally by Louis XIV. But
it was Napoleon I. who gave the
Louvre its real glory. Turning It into
a museum. Napoleon deposited in It
the finest collection of paintings, stat
ues and art treasures known In tho
world. Tbe magnificent buildings of
tho new Louvre were begun by Napo
leon I. and completed by Napoleon HI.
about 1857.
Easily Attained.
"I ntn determined to live in luxurious
surroundings and cat and drink the
best the land nffords." said the frankly
selfish man.
"That ought to be easily arranged."
replied Miss Cayenne. "All you have
to do is to get n situation ns a butler."
