BURCHELL, 1355 F STREEX, THE GALLANT SIXTH The Cavalry Troops That Are Now at Fort Myer. A LONG RECORD OF BRILLIANT SERVICE Noble Work During the. War of the Rebellion ee, AND IN INDIAN CAMPAIGNS The sixth regiment of cavalry, United States army, which was recently trans- ferred from Niobrara te Fert Myer, pos- sesses a history of more than usual interest. The cavalry was organized as the third cavalry, under the President's proclamation of May 3, 1861, and the proclamation was confirmed by act of Congress July 28, 1861. The headquarters were oréered established at Pittsburg, and Col. David Hunter was placed in command. The designation of the regiment was changed to “sixth cavalry” August 10, 1861, the mounted rifles becom- ing the third cavalry. The regiment was recruited principally in Pennsylvania, Otio and western New York, and, October 12, 1861, companies B, D, E, F, G, H, I and K aaving been organized, the regiment was transferred to the camp of instruction east of the Capitol, in this city. Companies /, M and C were organized soon after, and, on December 31, 1861, the regi- ment was ready for the field, with thirty- four offie-rs and 950 men. ‘Tee Peninsular Campaign. Winter quarters were abandoned March 10, 12, and the regiment crossed the Long bridge and marched to Fairfax Court House, “here it was assigned to Gen. Cooke’s com- mand and, after making reconnoissance to Centerville, Manassas and Bull Run, was embarked March 27, at Alexandria, for Fort Monroe, which it reached on the 30th. The regiment, except one squadron, was equipped with sabers and pistols, as light cavalry, and marched in advance of the Army of the Potomac to the position before Yorktown, where it remained until the evacuation. It participated in the peninsolar campaign, opened the battle of Williamsburg, and there undertook a feat of arms seldom er never attempted by cavalry mounted. ‘The regiment was engaged in the actions at Siatersville, New Kent Court House, Mechanicsville and Hanover Court House. The destruction of several bridges, and con- sequent railroad communication, was effect- ed about tnis time by details from the regi- ment. After successfully defending an ac- cumulation of stores at White House Land- ing and checking rebel cavalrymen who en- deavored to cross Black creek, it retired to Williamsburg and remained about York- town for several weeks and then marched to Malvern Hill and lost a number of men during a sharp engagement there. It was transported to Alexandria, and for three months was elmost constantly in contact ri the enemy in the vicinity of Washing- on. From that time until the close of the re- bellion the sixth cavalry was in active serv- ice and performed its duty meritoriously. At the end of the war the regiment, after the grand review in Washington before the President, went into camp at Frederick, Md., to reorganize and equip for duty on a distant frontier, where it was destined to pass the next quarter of a century. Strong Praise From Gen. Sheridan. Subsequent to the close of hostilities, the adjutant general's office not having given proper credit to the regiment for its serv- ices in battle, Gen. Sheridan sent to the War Department the following communica- tion, which is cherished as a manly and characteristic action on the part of the great leader: “I take this occasion to strong- ly urge that justice be done the sixth cav- alry, and that the battles, as given in the within order issued by me, be credited to this regiment on the next Army Register, 8o that its record, or #0 much of it as is pet mitted in the Army Register, may be in a measure correct and complete. In the fol- lowing battles the sixth cavalry fought un- der my personal supervision, namely: Wil- derness, Todd's Tavern, Furances, Spottsyl- vania Court House, Yellow Tavern, Meadow Bridge, Winchester, Fisher's Hill, Cedar Creek, Five Forks, Dinwiddie Court House, Clover Hill, Sailor’s Creek and Appomattox Ccurt House.” The record of casualties during the re- bellion shows 7 officers killed, 53 men killed in action and 53 other deaths; 122 wounded in action, and 17 by accident; 438 missing, most of these being captured at Fairfield and in other charges, making a total of 680 enlisted men. Service After the War. In October, 1865, the regiment left its camp near Frederick, Md., and proceeded to Austin, Tex. The headquarters remain- ed at Austin till August 24, 1868, when the station was changed to Fort Richard- fon, Tex. During the period from 1865 to 1871, while the regiment was stationed in men were of the most dangerous and v: ried kinds. After the close of the rebellion the country was overrun with desperadoes end outlaws, who were even worse than the hostile Comanches, and the officers and men were continually called upon to guard the courts of justice, to assist reve- nue officers, ald in executing convicted criminals, supervise elections, pursue out- laws and murderers and in general to in- stitute lawful proceedings where anarchy reigned. Many soldiers were assassinated for their devotion to law and order and nothing but incessant vigilance and un- flinching courage prevented guerrilla community from running the border coun- tles of the state. During the early part of 1871 the regiment was ordered from Texas to the Department of the Missourl, with headquarters at Fort Sill, I. T.. and soon after arrival began active scouting against the Indians. The first half of the regi- meat in May, 1875, moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico, where the troops were widely scattered. After nine years of continual hard service the regiment was relleved from duty in Arizona, and exchanged sta- tions, marching with the fourth cavalry in New Mexico, two troops going to Colorado. In the spring of 1885 nearly all the troops were hurried to the tleld to head off their old enemies, the Arizona Apaches. Troop A followed the Indians for about 500 miles into Mexico. In Indian Campaigas. Many of the officers of the sixth cavalry have made conspicuous records in Indian campaigns. Among the most prominent are Capt. Frank West and Lieut. Charlies B. Gatewood. Captain, then Lieut. West, on September 7, 1874, with a party cf twen- ty-seven men, was besieged about a mile north of the Washita river, and surround- ed for four days, during which the men suffered greatly from exposure and lack of food. May 29, 1887, Capt. West, with a detachment, was attacked near Camp Bow- fe, Arizona, but by bravery and gallantry came off victorious. Lieut. Gatewood entered upon service with the Apaches within a few months af- ter joining the regiment. He saw much service during the Victoria and other Ap- ache outbreaks, taking part in several en- fagements in New Mexico. He was com- mended later by the major general com- When danger threatened among the far- away Sioux in 1890, the scattered condition of the army at that time necessitated the gathering of troops from almest every de- partment, and tneluded the #ixth cavalry, which was transferred by rail from New Mexico to South Dakota, December arriving at Rapid City, ‘Layo. , gallop through the snow, guided only by the sound of the firing, which came to the = of the advance guard. Ai on K, under Capt. Kerr, was seen with a train corralled, and the attacking Indians in fall view. Although the horses were blown with their run for four or five miles in the snow, a skirmish ‘was formed at a and the Indians, who, notwith- standing their taunting cries of “come on,” gave way all along their line and retreat- ed in the direction of the main village. After the Indians surrendered half the regiment remained with them at Pine Ridge agency for a month. While en route to their new posts in the vicinity of the In- dian reservations the men and horses suf- fered greatly from exposure in very seve! weather. Up to the time of the recen: transfer the sixth regiment was, as it had been ever since the rebellion, “standing to horse” near an Indian reservation to participate in quelling disturbances. The colonel who preceded Col, Gordon in command of the sixth was Eugene A. Carr, now brigadier general, retired, and for some time a resident of this city. ———— LATE SPORTING NEWS GEORGETOWN WON EASILY. Camden Athietie Clu Eleven Beaten, Georgetown defeated Camden A.

ASSOCIATION FOOT BALL, How It Differs From the Collegians’ Game. The association game of foot ball differs materially from the game played by the American colleges. In the association game there ere no “mass plays,” the ball remain- ing in full tight of the spectators all the time. The players are not allowed to carry the ball, but may kick it or block it with their chests, shoulders or heads. It ism 2 dererving of the name of “foot ball” than the college game ts, for it is played chiefly with the feet, and the dexterity which some of the players show in manipulating the ball is remarkable. The fleld can be from 110 to 200 feet in length and from 58 to 75 feet in width. At each end of the field is a goal, formed of two posts eight yards apart, with a cross- piece eight feet from the ground. The ball must be sent through this goal, and every — counts one point for the club making Two halves of forty-five minutes each are vsually played, with an intermission of five minutes for rest. A referee and two lines- nen offictate. When the game is started each club forms itself, with five men im the foremost line. These present what in the college game would be the rush line. They are called the center, forward and the two left wings, and the two right wings. Behind them three others are ranged, known as the left half back, the center half back and the right half back. Two more, the left back and the right back, come behind them, and in the rear of them all is the goalkeeper. The prime ob- ject of these men is to place the ball be- tween the goal posts of the opposing team and under the cross-bar. The simplicity of the game Is expected to make it popular.

Mr. Walter Hewett is over in Philadel- phia today attending the secret meeting of the projected base ball association. This meeting of the association agitators and backers 1s for one purpose more than any- thing else. They want to see how they stand financially, and if there is enough money in the various cities selected for their circuit to warrant immediate organ- ization. As far as can be learned, the Chi- cago, Milwaukee, Pittsburg, Washington, New York and Brooklyn end is well heeled, but assurances must be had from Philadel phia and St. Louis or Cincinnati that ey- erything is all right before further business is transacted. Every one connected wfth the new scheme vecelved a written notice some time ago that the meeting would take place in Phil- adelphia today, but they were all partic- ularly requested to keep the matter secret. It 1s the intention of the promoters, how- ever, to give all the facts to the public either tonight or as soon as certain things have been fixed up. Fred Pfeffer comes from 1894—-TWELVE PAGES.

Hamline M. E. Church was corafortably filled last night by an audience that ap- preciated thoroughly the instructive lec- ture delivered by the Rev. E. 8. Todd, D. D., Hamline’s popular yastor. “The Israel of the Alps” was Dr. Todd's subject, and for an hour and a half he discoursed elo- quently of the Vaudois—that wonderful people, whose struggle for religious liberty has inspired many a modern missionary ef- fort. From valley to mountain top, through green pastures and over never-meiting snows, the reverend lecturer led hig listen- ers, the clever descriptions being supple- mented by a choice selection of photo- graphic illustrations, displayed upon a big screen. The sufferings of the faithful Vau- dois were sketchily depicted, and at ap- propriate times Dr. Todd turned his men- tal flashlight upon cause and effect, to the sincere gratification of the audience. Hearty tribute was paid the patriotism and relig- fous tenacity of the Vaudois, whose ex- ample was commended to Americans of this day and generation. With a moving appeal for more of religious harmony and tgleration—condemning any and all efforts to hold religionists of today responsible for what was done to the Vaudois—Dr. Todd brought to conclusion a most instruc- tive address, in which a vast quantity of valuable history was skillfully condensed. ‘The lecture was given under the auspices of Hamline Chapter of the Epworth League. The proceeds will be devoted to church pur- poses. —_—-_—. Alumnea Reading Circle of Notre Dame.

A colored girl, eighteen years old, carrying in her arms an eighteen-month-old child, was before Judge Kimball this morning as a vagrant, without visible means of sup- port. She gave her name as Mary Hunt when she called at a police station last night and asked that she be sent to a hos- pital or be given a home in the poor house. “Where are you from?’ Judge Kimball asked her. “Green Springs, Virginia,” was her re- se. “How old are you?” Eighteen years.’ ‘And how old is the baby?” ‘Eighteen months. ‘Are you married ‘No, indeed.” “Why did you come here?” wanted to find my stepfather.” ‘Is your mother living?” ‘No, sir; she’s dead, and I'm an orphan.” She said sue had a sore throat, and until she is cured she does not want to return home. Judge Kimball thought the case was one for Agent Lewis of the board of children’s guardians, but Agent Lewis, who was in court, said that some weeks there are fully fifty cases of this kind called to his atten- tion. He explained that women come here from the adjoining states, and when they get out of the hospital they want to get rid of their children. On account of the woman's condition, the judge said he thought the woman was a fit. subject for Freedman’s Hospital, and referred her case to Sanitary Officer Frank. ge The Surrender = Yorktown Celebra- tion.

In the case of Sturgis agt. Hancock, the Court of Appeals yesterday afternoon de- cided a matter which had come up on an ap- peal from the Circuit Court, the question presented being whether or not a party can be put in default and a judgment taken upon him before the expiration of the time set for his appearance to support or defend against a judgment involved in an appeal taken from a justice of the peace. j The case came before the Circuit Court on an appeal from a judgment rendered by a Justice of the peace. The appellant in the Court of Appeals had been summoned to ap- | pear in the court below within ten days af- ter the first trial day of the next term of | the court. Four days before that period ex- | pired the case was taken up and judgment | by default rendered against him. ‘The next day he appeared and aeked that the judg- ment be set aside and the case heard on its merits, and upon the rejection of that mo- tion he appeaied to the Court of Appeals. t court, in disposing of the case, held, in an opinion written by Mr. Chief Justice Alvey, that “only in such a case where two summons had been served and returned non | est could such judgment be taken as though the appellee had appeared. In this case | Such had not been done. And the appellee was not in contempt of statute. He did ap- pear within the ten days limited for his ap- | T*arance, but judgment had then been enter- ed against him.and when h= moved to vacate | this judgment the motion was refused. And | the question remaining is whether proper | exercise had been made of the appellate jurisdiction of the court below and whether the judgment so entered is valid. “It ts one of the common maxims of law that no person can be bound by a judgment prived of his rights without an opportunity of being heard. A judgment entered against & person without opportunity of being heard is simply a nullity.
